They earned $573,359,000 for the first 9 months, but the expenses were $2,861,229,000 in total.
Net loss was $2.4 billion.
They produced only 1805 cars last quarter? 600 per month? 30 per working day? WTF?
I see a spectacularly failing business and that funding will cover only ~4 months of operations.

Fascinating business scheme to say the least

So Lucid has spent 1.2 billion to make 200 million in Q3. About a third of the loss is R&D, so you might subtract that, but that still leaves cars sold at 1/4 of what they cost to produce. It boggles my mind how this can be "almost good news", even by today's insane venture capital standards.

Dont understand the math here. How it cant be almost good news if the company nearly 1 billion in losses?
