Looking forward, management now expects revenue and cash flow for Fiscal Year 2024 to be in the ranges of $50 million to $100 million and $45 million to $75 million, respectively. For reference, analysts were expecting $64.71 million in sales.
However, with only $19 million in cash at the end of the quarter, or $33 million slightly after the quarter’s end, it’s clear that the company will need to turn to outside financing options to keep itself afloat. In fact, according to TipRanks’ Bulls Say, Bears Say tool, bearish analysts believe that Canoo needs to raise between $200 million and $250 million. As a result, current investors are going to see their holdings eventually diluted.
