A closer look at the state of Irvine electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive Inc. has been revealed with the company’s initial public offering documents filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission Friday.
The automaker, backed by Amazon.com Inc. and Ford among many other big-name investors, began vehicle deliveries in mid-September.
It recorded a net loss of $426 million in calendar year 2019, followed by a net loss of $1 billion in 2020. The company said it’s made “minimal revenue” from its R1T truck and no other revenue from any other vehicles.
Rivian, which filed a confidential draft registration statement in late August, did not provide details on pricing and listed a $100 million placeholder amount in its filing.
The stock would be listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker RIVN.
