Microvast Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
STAFFORD, Texas, USA — Microvast Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:MVST) (“Microvast” or the “Company”), a global leader in advanced battery technologies, announced today its unaudited consolidated financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (“Q1 2026”).
"Our first quarter results reflect a period of strategic agility as we navigate evolving geopolitical dynamics and a shifting global landscape. While revenue of $60.6 million was impacted by delivery timing and regional headwinds in APAC, our resilient gross margin of 31.6% underscores the value of our technology and our ability to maintain strong positioning. We are entering a pivotal phase for Microvast with the launch of our 290Ah cell-based battery packs that we expect to integrate into the KAF electric powertrain solution and the ongoing ramp-up of our Huzhou Phase 3.2 expansion. By focusing on high-barrier segments and optimizing our production cycles, we remain committed to protecting our margins and accelerating our path to consistent profitability to drive long-term value for our stockholders," said Yang Wu, Microvast’s Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer.
Q1 2026 Results
•Revenue of $60.6 million, compared to $116.5 million in Q1 2025, a decrease of 48.0%. This decrease was primarily a result of evolving regulatory and geopolitical dynamics, including in the Indian and Korean markets, demand shift towards lower-cost products in India, and OEM platform ramp-up delays.
•Gross margin decreased to 31.6% from 36.9% in Q1 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted gross margin decreased to 31.7% from 37.0% in Q1 2025, primarily due to lower production utilization, which reduced fixed cost absorption.
•Operating expenses decreased to $27.1 million, compared to $29.2 million in Q1 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses were $26.1 million, compared to $28.5 million in Q1 2025.
•Net profit of $48.2 million, compared to net profit of $61.8 million in Q1 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss was $14.6 million, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net profit of $19.3 million in Q1 2025.
•Net profit per share of $0.15, compared to net profit per share of $0.19 in Q1 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share was $0.04, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net profit per share of $0.06 in Q1 2025.
•Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of negative $5.5 million in Q1 2026, compared to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $28.5 million in Q1 2025.
•Capital expenditures of $4.2 million, compared to $6.6 million in Q1 2025.
•Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $174.0 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $169.2 million as of December 31, 2025, and $123.0 million as of March 31, 2025.
Please refer to the tables at the end of this press release for reconciliations of gross profit to non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, operating expenses to non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, net profit to non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss), net profit per share to non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss) per share, net profit to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and gross margin to non-GAAP adjusted gross margin.
2026 Outlook & Forward-Looking Information
•While we continue to navigate evolving tariff structures and shifting geopolitical dynamics, we anticipate a recovery in delivery schedules and a steady revenue ramp through the remainder of 2026 as our production timelines align with accelerating customer demand and next generation production.
•We are targeting and committed to maintaining a resilient gross margin profile by balancing sustained operational efficiencies and premium product positioning against the planned absorption of costs related to our Phase 3.2 expansion and ongoing volatility in global raw material prices.
•Our primary operational catalyst remains the achievement of serial production at the Huzhou Phase 3.2 expansion in 2026. This expansion is expected to bring online up to 2 GWh of modular capacity, specifically designed to meet the requirements of our next-generation cell technologies.
•We remain on track to establish localized pack assembly operations at our Clarksville facility and anticipate first assemblies by year-end. This localization is a key component of our domestic strategy to provide North American commercial vehicle and transit customers with locally integrated battery solutions.
•We continue to seek new customer pipelines that span across EMEA, North America, and APAC. Our focus remains on the heavy industrial and transit markets, where we believe our vertical integration and the newly launched KAF electric powertrain will be able to provide a clear and defensible competitive advantage.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions with respect to the future and management's current expectations, involve certain risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our future results of operations and financial position, our operational performance, our anticipated growth and business strategy, anticipated development, commercialization, and market adoption of Microvast's KAF™ ("Kids Are Future") integrated electric powertrain solution, our future capital expenditures and debt service obligations, the projected costs, prospects and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including regarding expected growth and demand for our products and introduction of new products, the adoption of such offerings by customers, our expectations relating to backlog, pipeline and contracted backlog, current expectations relating to legal proceedings and impacts and benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 as well as any other proposed or recently enacted legislation. In some cases, you may also identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “outlook” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology intended to identify statements about the future. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
Many factors could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements, including, among others: (1) our ability to remain a going concern; (2) risk that we may not be able to accurately project and manage our growth and effectively execute our growth strategies or achieve profitability; (3) risk that we may be unable to meet our future capital requirements and we may require additional capital to support our business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, or at all; (4) potential difficulties in maintaining manufacturing capacity and establishing expected mass manufacturing capacity in the future; (5) risks relating to issues or delays, disruptions and quality control problems in our manufacturing operations; (6) risks relating to being unable to control our manufacturing costs; (7) risks that we may be unable to meet our projected construction timelines, costs and production ramps, or we may experience difficulties in generating and maintaining demand for products manufactured there and related services; (8) restrictions in our existing and any future credit facilities; (9) risks of operations in China; (10) the effects of mechanics liens filed by contractors that we do not have sufficient funds to pay; (11) the effects of existing and future litigation; (12) changes in general economic conditions, including increases in interest rates and associated Federal Reserve policies, a potential economic recession, and the impact of inflation on our business; (13) changes in the highly competitive market in which we compete, including with respect to our competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes; (14) changes in availability and price of raw materials; (15) risks that our suppliers may fail to deliver components according to schedules, prices, quality and volumes that are acceptable to us, or we may be unable to manage these components effectively; (16) labor relations, including the ability to attract, hire and retain key employees and contract personnel; (17) heightened awareness of environmental issues and concern about global warming and climate change; (18) risk that we are unable to secure or protect our intellectual property; (19) risk that our customers or third-party suppliers are unable to meet their obligations fully or in a timely manner; (20) risks related to possible future reductions in pricing or order volume or loss of one or more of our significant customers; (21) risks relating to our status as a relatively low-volume purchaser as well as from supplier concentration and limited supplier capacity;
(22) risk that our customers will adjust, cancel or suspend their orders for our products; (23) risks relating to our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers; (24) risks related to our lengthy sales cycle for our products; (25) risk of product liability or regulatory lawsuits or proceedings relating to our products or services; (26) our ability to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand recognition; (27) risks relating to facing strong competition for our products and services from a growing list of established and new competitors; (28) the effectiveness of our information technology and operational technology systems and practices to detect and defend against evolving cyberattacks; (29) changing laws regarding cybersecurity and data privacy, and any cybersecurity threat or event; (30) the effects and associated cost of compliance with existing and future laws and governmental regulations, such as the Inflation Reduction Act; (31) risks relating to whether renewable energy technologies are suitable for widespread adoption or if sufficient demand for our offerings does not develop or takes longer to develop than we anticipate; (32) economic, financial and other impacts such as a pandemic, including global supply chain disruptions; (33) the impacts of geopolitical events, such as the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, including hostilities with Iran, the war between Russia and Ukraine, and other current or future conflicts; (34) risks associated with maintaining and expanding our international operations, including unfavorable and uncertain regulatory, political, economic, tax, and labor conditions; and (35) risk that tariffs imposed on products of the PRC into the United States may lead to increased costs and impact our business. Microvast’s annual, quarterly and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission identify, address and discuss these and other factors in the sections entitled “Risk Factors.”
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and new factors may emerge from time to time that could also affect actual performance and results. For more information, please see the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 in Part I, Item 1A.
Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
All information set forth herein speaks only as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date hereof except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Forecasts and estimates regarding our industry and end markets are based on sources we believe to be reliable, however, there can be no assurance these forecasts and estimates will prove accurate in whole or in part.
All references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Microvast Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries other than certain historical information which refers to the business of Microvast prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, Microvast has disclosed in this earnings release non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, non-GAAP EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss), non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss) per share, and non-GAAP adjusted gross margin which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. These are intended as supplemental measures of our financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, net profit/(loss), and net profit/(loss) per share, are contained in tabular form in the unaudited financial statements below. Non-GAAP adjusted gross profit is GAAP gross profit as adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues. Non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss) is GAAP net profit/(loss) as adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation expense and change in valuation of warrant liability and convertible loan. Non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss) per common share is GAAP net profit/(loss) per common share as adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation expense and change in valuation of warrant liability and convertible loan per common share. Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net profit/(loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, and income tax expense or benefit. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as net profit/(loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, non-cash settled share-based compensation expense, interest expense, interest income, changes in fair value of our warrant liability and convertible loan and income tax expense or benefit. Non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses is defined as operating expenses excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP adjusted gross margin is defined as GAAP gross margin as adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues.
We use non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, non-GAAP EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss), non-GAAP net profit/(loss) per share and non-GAAP adjusted gross margin for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We consider them to be important measures because they help illustrate underlying trends in our business and our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with their most directly comparable GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results.
We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to our historical performance. We believe 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 our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors.
Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. For example, our calculation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures, if any, reported by our peer companies, or our peer companies may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore our use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The principal limitation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining this non-GAAP financial measure. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. In addition, such financial information is unaudited and does not conform to SEC Regulation S-X and as a result, such information may be presented differently in our future filings with the SEC. For example, with respect to the warrant liability resulting from the July 23, 2021 business combination with Tuscan Holdings Corp., we now exclude changes in fair value from net profit/(loss) in our non-GAAP adjusted
EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted net profit/(loss) calculation, which had not been done in prior periods.

2 Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our future results of operations and financial position, our operational performance, our anticipated growth and business strategy, our anticipated development, commercialization, and market adoption of Microvast's KAF™ ("Kids Are Future") integrated electric powertrain solution, our future capital expenditures and debt service obligations, the projected costs, prospects and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including regarding expected growth and demand for our products and introduction of new products, the adoption of such offerings by customers, our expectations relating to backlog, pipeline and contracted backlog, current expectations relating to legal proceedings and impacts and benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 as well as any other proposed or recently enacted legislation. In some cases, you may also identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “outlook,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology intended to identify statements about the future. Such forward- looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. All information set forth herein speaks only as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date hereof except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Forecasts and estimates regarding our industry and end markets are based on sources we believe to be reliable, however, there can be no assurance these forecasts and estimates will prove accurate in whole or in part. Microvast’s annual, quarterly and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission identify, address and discuss these and other factors in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net profit/loss, which are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is defined as net profit/(loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, and income tax expense or benefit. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as net profit/loss excluding depreciation and amortization, non-cash settled share-based compensation (“SBC”) expense, interest expense, interest income, changes in fair value of our warrant and convertible loan and income tax expense or benefit. Adjusted net profit/loss is GAAP net profit/loss as adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense and changes to the valuation of warrant liabilities and convertible loan. In addition to Microvast's results determined in accordance with GAAP, Microvast's management uses these non-GAAP financial metrics to evaluate the company’s ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors in assessing Microvast's operating performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP metrics provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends because it eliminates the effect of financing, non-recurring items, capital expenditures, and non-cash expenses. In addition, our presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net profit/loss should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of non-GAAP financial metrics may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies because not all companies calculate these measures in the same fashion. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial metrics should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial metrics on a supplemental basis. Investors should review the reconciliations in this presentation and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

4 Q1 2026 Overview Q1 Revenue Q1 Gross Profit & Gross Margin § Revenue – Reflects a unique set of challenges which created a year-over-year dip that we believe to be temporary. Our focus remains on bringing on capacity from Phase 3.2 as production timelines align with customer demand and we expect this capacity to contribute to a continued revenue ramp through 2026. § Gross Profit – While total gross profit decreased due to lower volumes, margins remained resilient. This demonstrates effective cost management and the ability to maintain premium positioning despite fluctuations in top-line revenue. Revenue $60.6M Gross Margin 31.6% Adj.

However, even with reduced Q1 sales volume, the margin position held strong, demonstrating technology value. Operating Expenses vs. Prior Year Period § G&A: Decrease Y/Y primarily due to reduction in allowance for credit loss from improved credit management, partially offset by an increase in professional fees. § R&D: Increase primarily due to expansion of our domestic presence in the U.S. § S&M: Decrease primarily from a reduction in service fees.
