Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On June 22, 2026, Lucid Group, Inc. (the “Company”) announced a plan (the “Plan”) designed to advance the Company’s path toward profitability and positive cash flow generation by streamlining its organizational structure, optimizing operating expenses, and aligning production plans with anticipated demand. This involves a reduction of the Company’s current U.S. workforce by approximately 18 percent, including full-time employees, contractors and hourly production workers in manufacturing. As part of this reduction, the Company has eliminated the second shift of production at its AMP-1 factory. The Plan is expected to provide the Company with annualized cost savings of approximately $158 million. The Company estimates that it will incur cash charges of approximately $32 million related to severance, employee benefits, and employee transition. The Company expects to substantially complete the Plan by the end of the third quarter of 2026, subject to local law and consultation requirements.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 22, 2026, the Company announced that Marc Winterhoff, Chief Operating Officer, has departed the Company, effective immediately following the elimination of the Chief Operating Officer position. Mr. Winterhoff is eligible to receive severance benefits under the Company’s Executive Severance Plan, subject to the terms and conditions thereof. In addition, the Company has agreed to provide certain continued security support and have him keep his company vehicle.
