Mr. Wang has extensive experience and expertise in information technology and operations management alongside a proven track record for successfully integrating these technologies into cultural tourism projects and related management for large corporations, business operations and strategic leadership. As Co-COO, Mr. Wang will oversee EHang’s business operations, focusing on business development, product sales, marketing, commercial operations for UAM services.

Management Remarks

Mr. Huazhi Hu, EHang’s Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are thrilled for continuing our strong growth in both operational and financial performance. Particularly noteworthy is our obtainment of the PC from the CAAC for our EH216-S. Receiving such a certification is a milestone that positions us as the pioneering entity in the global eVTOL industry, a significant stride towards mass production and commercial operations for eVTOL aircraft. The certification accomplishments, coupled with accelerated government support aimed at promoting the high-quality development of the low-altitude economy, also spurred a surge in inquiries and orders from diverse entities in China and overseas, including governments and scenic operators. Consequently, we achieved a new record high in deliveries for 26 units of EH216-S during the quarter and impressive revenue growth.

With the EH216-S now equipped with all three certifications, we are poised to expedite our production and commercialization. This includes collaboration with regions where we have built up strategic partnerships to shape benchmark cities, showcasing the immense potential of the low-altitude economy. We also established a strategic partnership with GBT for the development of cutting-edge extreme fast charging batteries for eVTOL, paving the way for advancing high-efficiency operations in this sector.

Moreover, our international development is reinforced with the expansion of partnership and demo flights across the UAE, Spain, Costa Rica and Japan. Simultaneously, we are actively pursuing overseas validations of type certificate for EH216-S to streamline international order fulfillment and set the stage for broader market penetration.

Looking ahead, we will remain focused on moving forward commercial EH216-S operations for a new phase of growth, catering to intra-city mobility needs while addressing other needs in global UAM by research and development, testing, and airworthiness certification efforts for VT-30, our pilotless passenger-carrying lift-and-cruise eVTOL model tailored for inter-city travel. As a frontrunner in the eVTOL industry, we remain steadfast in offering fully autonomous, safe, and environmentally friendly eVTOL experiences to a wider customer base worldwide to spearhead the development of the low-altitude economy.”

Mr. Conor Yang, EHang’s Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Driven by our certifications and favorable government policies, we achieved stellar financial results. We exceeded our guidance with first-quarter revenue growing 178% year-over-year to reach RMB61.7 million, reflecting robust demand for our proprietary EH216 pilotless eVTOL vehicles.

We also delivered positive operating cash flow for the second consecutive quarter, underscoring an improvement in our financial situation. We believe our diligent preparation for commercial operations equips us for maintaining this upward trajectory and will further foster ongoing expansion while capitalizing on our core capabilities to propel growth within the UAM sector.”

In April 2024, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with China Renaissance Securities (Hong Kong) Limited (the “sales agent”) relating to the sale of ADSs for an aggregate offering price of up to US$100 million from time to time through or to the sales agent, as agent or principal. The ADSs to be sold are registered under the Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-278830) filed with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission on April 19, 2024. Up to the date of this press release, the Company had raised gross proceeds of over US$55 million through sales of ADSs under the at-the-market offering. The proceeds from the offering have strengthened the Company’s liquidity position.

In addition, up to the date of this press release, the Company has unused uncommitted credit facilities of RMB131.0 million (US$18.2 million) with expiration dates before April 2025. Therefore, the Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, short-term investments and its anticipated cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet its anticipated working capital requirements and material cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects the total revenues to be around RMB90 million, representing an increase of approximately 804% year-over-year.

The above outlook is based on information available as of the date of this press release and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary expectations regarding its business situation and market conditions.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely to” and similar statements. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about management’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to those relating to certifications, our expectations regarding demand for, and market acceptance of, our products and solutions and the commercialization of UAM services, our relationships with strategic partners, and current litigation and potential litigation involving us. Management has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While they believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond management’s control. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause EHang’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted sales and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted operating loss, adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, adjusted basic and diluted loss per ordinary share and adjusted basic and diluted loss per ADS (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. There was no income tax impact on the Company’s non-GAAP adjustments because the non-GAAP adjustments are usually recorded in entities located in tax-free jurisdictions, such as the Cayman Islands.

The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effects of items of (i) share-based compensation expenses and (ii) certain non-operational expenses, such as amortization of debt discounts, which are included in their comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management members in their financial and operational decision-making.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the Non-GAAP Financial Measures is that they do not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and are not reflected in the presentation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Further, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.

Each of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to its comparable GAAP measure or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or financial results. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s most directly comparable GAAP measures in conjunction with the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the Non-GAAP Financial Measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
