Exro Technologies, Canada

    Mind. 7 big news erwartet in den kommenden Monaten:


    1. Still currently under non-disclosure agreement ("NDA"), Exro and partner are working towards partner motor-Exro Coil Driver™ inverter integration and testing in Q3 2023. Following successful testing it is anticipated the identity of the 25,000+ employee partner will be announced along with commercialization plans.


    2. Subsequent to the quarter, Exro announced signing the world's third largest motor manufacturer, Wolong Electric Group, as a strategic partner. The companies are collaborating towards motor-inverter integration and testing in Q4 2023 across a variety of low voltage and high voltage applications.


    3 Exro continues discussions with other potential strategic partners.


    4. Delivery of 48V hybrid-diesel samples to our European off-highway NDA-partner in Q1. Of note, this project includes two NDA's under one umbrella partnership – one is a large European OEM which supplies vehicles for off-highway applications, the second is a large European-based motor supplier. NDA partner timing has bumped sample delivery into Q2 2023. Integration of the partner motor-Exro inverter solution for the OEM's hybrid-diesel platform has been proceeding well with all parties scheduled to be in Calgary in May to collaborate commercialization efforts and witness final testing.


    5. Signing additional multi-year commercial agreements that build our Coil Driver™ order back-log. With the roll out of low-voltage DFM samples at the end of Q1 2023, and the planned roll-out of high-voltage DFM samples by the end of Q2 2023, Exro is engaged in commercial agreement discussions with numerous parties. Following customer vehicle integration and in-field validation, it is anticipated discussions will translate into supply agreements in H2 2023 and into 2024.


    6. Cell Driver: The system is on track to complete UL certification in early Q3 2023, pushed back by approximately three weeks due to scheduling at UL's certification laboratories. UL certification is required prior to connecting to the grid in North America.


    7. Achieve first deliveries and revenues for Coil Driver™ and Cell Driver™ products in Q3. Exro remains on schedule to begin series production of its Coil Driver™ and Cell Driver™ products in Q3 2023.


    Was ist wann zu erwarten?


    Juli 2023:


    Zelltreiber: UL-Zertifizierung

    Das System ist auf dem besten Weg, die UL-Zertifizierung Anfang des dritten Quartals 2023 abzuschliessen, was sich aufgrund der Terminplanung der UL-Zertifizierungslabors um etwa drei Wochen verzögert. Die UL-Zertifizierung ist erforderlich, bevor das System in Nordamerika an das Stromnetz angeschlossen werden kann.

    Der Markt reagiert bisher sehr zurückhaltend.

    • New

    During the remainder of 2023, Exro is scheduled to integrate Coil Driver™ products with a host of customers in Canada, Europe, South America, and the United States. The focus over the coming months is on successful customer integrations and real-world applications. The on-road miles driven, including completing third-party track testing in Q4, are anticipated to build credibility while demonstrating top-tier miles per kWh efficiency. Exro will leverage the information collected to continue to unlock the global commercial e-vehicle space through 2024 and beyond.


    Does it mean there will be more orders this year?

    The provided information emphasizes Exro's plans for integration of its Coil Driver™ products with various customers across different regions in 2023. However, the focus, as stated, seems to be on "successful customer integrations and real-world applications" rather than explicit mentions of new orders.


    Key points to consider:


    1. **Integration with Customers**: The scheduled integrations across multiple regions indicate a strong interest and potential collaborations. Integrations usually mean that there are arrangements (potentially including pilot programs or trial phases) to test or utilize Exro's technology in real-world scenarios.


    2. **Building Credibility**: The mention of on-road miles and third-party track testing suggests that Exro is in the process of collecting data and results to validate their product's efficiency and reliability. Positive results from these tests can significantly boost Exro's credibility in the market.


    3. **Leveraging Information**: Exro's plan to leverage the collected information suggests they aim to use the data and feedback to refine their product, market it more effectively, and possibly secure more orders in the future.


    While the statement doesn't explicitly confirm new orders within 2023, the activities mentioned – like integration, testing, and data collection – typically precede larger orders as customers will want to see real-world results before making significant commitments.


    In essence, while more orders are not directly stated, the groundwork being laid suggests a positive trajectory that could lead to more orders in the future, especially if the integrations and tests prove successful.
