Insights

EVgo Inc.'s record revenue of $55.2 million in Q1 2024, which is a staggering 118% increase from the previous year, indicates a strong growth trajectory for the electric vehicle charging network provider. This performance is a testament to the burgeoning demand for electric vehicle infrastructure, fueled by increased EV adoption. The key factors contributing to this growth are the significant expansion of the charging network and substantial increase in network throughput. A Financial Analyst would highlight that despite the impressive top-line growth, EVgo reported a net loss of $28.2 million and an Adjusted EBITDA of ($7.2 million). However, the narrowing of the net loss by 43% compared to the previous year points to improving operational efficiency. The company's capital expenditures also saw a dramatic decrease, down 68% year-over-year, showing effective capital management. Despite the current net losses, the company's guidance for achieving adjusted EBITDA breakeven in 2025 reflects management's confidence in EVgo's growth strategy and the EV market's potential. Investors would be cautioned, however, that EVgo's long-term profitability is contingent upon continued EV market expansion and the ability to convert current growth into sustainable earnings.

As a Market Research Analyst examining EVgo Inc.'s first quarter results, the expansion of EVgo's customer base by nearly 109,000 new accounts marks a strong consumer adoption trend. The company's network now boasts over 981,000 customers, a 60% increase year-over-year. This serves as a proxy for the electric vehicle market's momentum and EVgo's competitive positioning within it. Furthermore, the deployment of 250 new operational stalls, including EVgo eXtend™ stalls and a 194% year-over-year increase in network throughput to 53 gigawatt-hours underscores the company's aggressive capacity augmentation. With the network utilization doubling to approximately 19%, the data signals a rising utilization rate that may lead to improved economies of scale. However, a critical look at the infrastructure scalability and competitiveness in the rapidly evolving EV charging industry is advised. The ability to maintain market share and customer loyalty as new entrants and technologies emerge will be important for long-term success.

From the perspective of an Energy Sector Specialist, EVgo Inc.'s first-quarter report highlights the strategic initiatives the company is deploying to capitalize on the clean energy transition. A key point of interest is the EVgo eXtend™ stalls, which cater to the growing need for fast-charging solutions. The reported 53 GWh of network throughput indicates an accelerating shift in energy consumption patterns, away from fossil fuels and toward electricity for transportation. This aligns with global energy transition goals and supports the narrative of electrification of the transport sector. The increase in network utilization suggests EVgo's infrastructure is becoming an integral part of the EV ecosystem. However, it is important to consider the company's heavy investments and current net losses in the context of a long-term transition that is highly dependent on policy support and technological advancements in battery storage and charging technologies. The 2024 Financial Guidance reaffirmed by EVgo provides a positive outlook but requires a careful analysis of market dynamics and regulatory changes that could affect the sector.

CFO Transition

EVgo also announced that Olga Shevorenkova will be stepping down as Chief Financial Officer and departing the Company, effective on or about May 31, 2024, for a role with a private company. Stephanie Lee, EVP of Accounting & Finance, will serve as Interim CFO from the time of Olga’s departure until a permanent successor joins the Company. The Company has retained a leading executive search firm and commenced a comprehensive search process to identify the Company’s next CFO. Ms. Shevorenkova's departure was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices, including the Company's accounting principles and practices and internal controls.

“On behalf of the Board and management team, I would like to thank and recognize Olga for her many contributions to EVgo over the past six years,” said Badar Khan, CEO of EVgo. “Olga joined EVgo at a time when it was a private company in a nascent sector, and helped EVgo navigate a path to become a scaled electric vehicle charging network provider that is an industry leader. Her commitment to our mission is evident, and we wish Olga all the best in her future pursuits. We have a well-defined transition plan in place and are thankful for the deep and talented finance team she has built.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement EVgo’s financial information, which is prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, EVgo uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. EVgo uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. EVgo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of EVgo’s recurring core business operating results.

EVgo believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing EVgo’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical performance. EVgo believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by EVgo’s institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of EVgo’s business.

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, please see the sections titled “Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures, in each case as defined below: “Adjusted Cost of Sales,” “Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue,” “Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss),” “Adjusted Gross Margin,” “Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses,” “Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue,” “EBITDA,” “EBITDA Margin,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA Margin,” and “Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets.” With respect to Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets, pursuant to the terms of certain OEM contracts, EVgo is paid well in advance of when revenue can be recognized, and usually, the payment is tied to the number of stalls that commence operations under the applicable contractual arrangement while the related revenue is deferred at the time of payment and is recognized as revenue over time as EVgo provides charging and other services to the OEM and the OEM’s customers. EVgo management therefore uses these measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets, and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, including the cash used for, and the return on, its investment in its charging infrastructure. EVgo believes that these measures are useful to investors in evaluating EVgo’s performance and help to depict a meaningful representation of the performance of the underlying business, enabling EVgo to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future.

Adjusted Cost of Sales, Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under GAAP and the items excluded from or included in these metrics are significant components in understanding and assessing EVgo’s financial performance. These metrics should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

EVgo defines Adjusted Cost of Sales as cost of sales before (i) depreciation, net of capital-build amortization, and (ii) share-based compensation. EVgo defines Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue as Adjusted Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as revenue less Adjusted Cost of Sales. EVgo defines Adjusted Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as a percentage of revenue.
