Rivian's Upcoming Earnings to Reveal R2 Model Production Timeline and Profit Impact
Electric vehicle manufacturer Rivian Automotive (RIVN) is set to reveal its earnings in early November. This announcement is anticipated to provide crucial insights into the production timeline and profitability impact of the eagerly awaited R2 model. The company's stock price has recently risen to $13.64, an increase of 0.85%.
Rivian's upcoming earnings report is expected to offer updates on its affordable models - R2, R3, and R3X. These models, priced under $50,000, could open the market to tens of millions of new buyers, potentially boosting Rivian's valuation significantly if they follow the growth trajectory of Tesla's affordable models.
The R2, slated for production in early 2026, is currently undergoing validation tests on public roads with test vehicles. Rivian achieved positive gross margins this year, but a substantial portion of this profit came from selling automotive regulatory credits. The company's revenue growth rates have been steady for the past 18 months, but it has yet to achieve net profitability. Rivian has a market cap of $17B and a price-to-sales ratio of 3.1.
Rivian's earnings announcement in early November is poised to provide valuable guidance on the production timeline and profitability impact of the R2 model. Investors can expect updates on the company's upcoming affordable models, which could significantly expand Rivian's customer base and potentially drive up the company's valuation.
