Revenue increased to $10.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2021, representing 70% year-over-year growth. Revenue growth was primarily driven by higher retail charging revenue and increased ancillary revenues and regulatory credit sales. The Company added approximately 54,000 new customer accounts, bringing the overall number of customer accounts to approximately 498,000 at quarter-end, an increase of approximately 60% year-over-year.

Network throughput increased to 12.1 GWh in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 8.0 GWh in the third quarter of 2021, representing 51% year-over-year growth.

“During the third quarter, we continued to execute on our growth plans on the back of continued electric vehicle (“EV”) adoption and market development,” said Cathy Zoi, EVgo’s CEO. “Our latest results, coupled with our expanding fleet and site host partnerships, reinforce our position as a leader in EV fast charging. We saw continued growth across our core charging business, with strong increases in retail and rideshare throughput delivering higher revenues. We recently launched Autocharge+ nationwide, which simplifies the charging experience, as we continue to set a new bar in our rapidly expanding network. We believe our ability to drive technological innovation and deliver new products and solutions to consumers, commercial fleets and other partners will put us at the forefront of the robust and rapidly growing EV charging market.”

Business Highlights

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement EVgo’s financial information, which is prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, EVgo uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. EVgo uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. EVgo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of EVgo’s recurring core business operating results.

EVgo believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing EVgo’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical performance. EVgo believes 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 EVgo’s institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of EVgo’s business.

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, please see the sections titled “Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” included at the end of this release.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures including “Adjusted Cost of Sales,” “Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss),” “Adjusted Gross Margin,” “EBITDA,” and “Adjusted EBITDA.” EVgo believes these measures are useful to investors in evaluating EVgo’s financial performance. In addition, EVgo uses these measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets, and operational goals to manage and monitor its business. EVgo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to depict a more realistic representation of the performance of the underlying business, enabling EVgo to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. EVgo believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results.

EVgo defines Adjusted Cost of Sales as cost of sales before: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, and (iii) reimbursement from original equipment manufacturers. Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) is defined as revenues less Adjusted Cost of Sales. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as a percentage of revenues. EVgo defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before (i) interest expense, (ii) income taxes and (iii) depreciation and amortization. EVgo defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) share- based compensation expense, (ii) loss on disposal of property and equipment, (iii) loss (gain) on investments, (iv) bad debt expense, (v) change in fair value of earnout liability, (vi) change in fair value of warrant liability, and (vii) certain other items that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing performance. Adjusted Cost of Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted Gross Margin, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from or included in these metrics are significant components in understanding and assessing EVgo’s financial performance. These metrics should not be considered as alternatives to revenue, net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
