The equity began the day at $6.69 and reached an intraday bottom of $6.18.
The electric vehicle manufacturer reported a Q1 operating deficit of $989 million against revenue totaling $282 million. Analyst expectations had called for an $864 million loss on approximately $358 million in revenue. The substantial revenue shortfall — missing projections by roughly 36% — stemmed primarily from a supplier-related complication that delayed February deliveries of the Gravity SUV model.

Loss per share stood at ($3.46), falling short of the consensus forecast of ($2.72) by $0.74. The automaker currently exhibits a negative return on equity of 138.82% alongside a negative net margin of 207.87%.
<a href="https://coincentral.com/lucid-lcid-stock-what-wall-street-expects-from-q1-earnings-today/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Lucid</a> completed deliveries of 3,093 vehicles during the first quarter, matching the prior year’s figure. Manufacturing activity, however, presented a contrasting narrative — the company produced 5,500 vehicles throughout the quarter, representing a 149% year-over-year surge. North American order volume in March climbed 144% compared to February levels.
Despite flat delivery numbers, revenue expanded 20% year over year, supported by an improved product mix.

<a href="https://coincentral.com/lucid-lcid-stock-what-analysts-expect-from-q1-earnings-tuesday/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Lucid</a> finalized a $1.05 billion capital infusion during April. The financing consisted of $550 million in convertible preferred securities from a Saudi PIF-affiliated entity, $300 million through a registered common stock offering, and $200 million in equity from Uber — increasing Uber’s cumulative Lucid investment to $500 million.
The company concluded Q1 with total liquidity of $4.7 billion, alleviating immediate funding concerns.
Additionally, the electric vehicle maker appointed Silvio Napoli as its new chief executive, succeeding Marc Winterhoff.

Analyst sentiment remains subdued. The consensus recommendation stands at “Reduce” with a mean price objective of $12.25, representing significant upside from current levels.

The wider electric vehicle sector has faced challenges. The $7,500 federal purchase incentive lapsed in September, and domestic EV sales contracted 27% year over year during the first quarter.
Lucid had previously outlined guidance calling for 25,000–27,000 vehicle deliveries in 2026. This production forecast was absent from the Q1 earnings announcement.
LCID currently trades at a market capitalization of $2.05 billion, with a 50-day moving average at $9.06 and a 200-day moving average at $11.67.
