FREEHOLD, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cenntro Inc. (NASDAQ: CENN) (“Cenntro” or “the Company”), a leading electric commercial vehicle company with advanced, market-validated, and purpose-built vehicles, has reported its financial and operational results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Second Quarter 2024 Financial and Operational Highlights:
- Second quarter 2024 net revenue of $8.32 million increased 96.4% compared to $4.24 million for the second quarter of 2023.
- U.S. sales volume increased to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2024 from $33,000 for the second quarter of 2023.
- Adjusted EBITDA loss for the second quarter of 2024 of $7.27 million compared to a loss of $12.5 million for the second quarter of 2023.
- Sold 255 Electric Commercial Vehicles in the second quarter of 2024.
- Sold 33 Logistar™ 400 Class 4 vehicles in the U.S. market compared to zero in the second quarter of 2023.
- Sold 53 Avantier™ vehicles in Europe and South American markets in the second quarter of 2024 compared to zero in the second quarter of 2023.
- Sold 429 iChassis kits in the second quarter of 2024 compared to zero in the second quarter of 2023.
- Ontario assembly facility in California began full assembly operations in the second quarter of 2024.
Peter Wang, chief executive officer, explained: “The second quarter of 2024 demonstrated a strong cadence of Cenntro products being sold and delivered in the U.S. market. In the second quarter we sold 255 vehicles compared to 235 vehicles in the prior year period. We sold 429 units of our iChassis in the second quarter, although these units are not inclusive of the number of vehicles sold because iChassis is not considered a complete vehicle. We anticipate sales momentum will continue to build in the quarters ahead due to our sales process and growth strategy.
“During the second quarter of 2024 we continued our introduction of next-generation vehicles with the newest Logistar® series model, the Logistar® 210 ('LS210') being sold in the European and other global markets. The LS210 is a light duty electric commercial vehicle customized for transporting light goods in urban areas, replacing the LS200 because it meets new European regulations. We also recently received a California Air Resources Board ('CARB') 'Executive Order' and a 'Certificate of Conformity' from the United States Environmental Protection Agency for the Logistar® 300 model. We are working diligently to develop new vehicle models to align with the demands of the market, and keep pace with new regulations, technologies and features.
“Operationally, we established a California-based electric commercial vehicles ('ECVs') production and distribution assembly facility to support expanding sales in the U.S. west coast market in Ontario, California. Our California facility has full-scale production capabilities for the LS400, Metro and future vehicle models to be sold in the U.S. As of June of this year, the California facility assembled and delivered over three dozen LS400 units to west coast customers. With our expanded production capacity in California, we believe we are positioned for more efficient delivery of our EVs to the west coast market.
“Looking ahead, we will continue to build on strength of our financial and operational results in 2024 and beyond. Our focus is on expanding our geographic footprint for production, distribution, and service infrastructure. We look forward to providing additional updates in the months to come as we work to create long-term value for our stockholders,” concluded Mr. Wang.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $(15.7) million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $(21.8) million in the six months ended June 30, 2023.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (or net loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization as further adjusted to exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring expenses including expenses related to TME Acquisition, expenses related to one-off payment inherited from the original Naked Brand Group, impairment of goodwill, convertible bond issuance fee, loss on redemption of convertible promissory notes, loss on exercise of warrants, and change in fair value of convertible promissory notes and derivative liability. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we consider it to be an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.
