FREYR Battery Reports Second Quarter 2023 Results
New York, Oslo, and Luxembourg, August 10, 2023, FREYR Battery (NYSE: FREY) (“FREYR” or the “Company”), a developer of clean, next-generation battery cell production capacity, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2023.
Highlights of the Second Quarter 2023 and Subsequent Events:
•In a separate press release published this morning and available on FREYR’s website, FREYR announced appointments to the Company’s senior management team and Board of Directors in accordance with an established succession plan. Former Microsoft executive Birger Steen has been appointed as FREYR’s CEO effective August 21st, and to FREYR’s Board of Directors, effective immediately. FREYR’s Co-founder and CEO, Tom Einar Jensen has been appointed Executive Chair of FREYR’s Board of Directors, effective immediately; and FREYR’s Founder and Executive Chair, Torstein Dale Sjøtveit, is retiring effective immediately. Mr. Steen brings more than 30 years of technology sector senior leadership and Board of Directors experience in roles at companies including Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT; “Microsoft”), McKinsey & Co., and Scandinavia Online AS. In his new role as Executive Chair, Tom Einar Jensen will focus on key business development initiatives, capital formation activities, and engagement with FREYR’s capital providers.
•FREYR’s Board of Directors has approved an action plan to redomicile FREYR’s corporate holding company from Luxembourg to the United States with the intention to complete the process by year-end 2023. The expected benefits of redomiciling to the U.S. are dramatically expanded equity index eligibility, strategic alignment with the Company’s investors and other key stakeholders supporting maximization of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) subsidies, support for the application process under U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) Loan Programs Office, and enhanced corporate governance protocols.
•In July, FREYR announced that the Company was awarded a €100 million grant from the European Union Innovation Fund (“EUIF”) to support the development of the Giga Arctic project in Mo i Rana, Norway. The grant, which is expected to be funded during the construction of Giga Arctic and over time with GHG avoidance, is aligned with the EUIF’s efforts to promote localized production of battery solutions in the European Economic Area.
•In June, FREYR hosted its inaugural Capital Markets Day at the New York Stock Exchange, during which the Company announced that it reached the key milestone of assembling and successfully charging the first semi-automatically produced battery unit cells at the Customer Qualification Plant (“CQP”) in Mo i Rana, Norway. In the weeks following the Capital Markets Day, FREYR’s operations team have continued to conduct testing workstreams and complete commissioning packages, highlighted by the start of a testing program for FREYR’s first long-term sales agreement customer, Nidec Corporation (TSE: 6594; “Nidec”).
•In June, FREYR entered into a Heads of Terms (“HoT”) agreement with Sunwoda Mobility Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (“Sunwoda”) to form a partnership with the intention to expand business in the western hemisphere based on Sunwoda’s conventional technology.
“Following the landmark achievement of assembling and successfully charging our first cells at the CQP in June, our teams have continued to make meaningful progress towards key milestones that will drive technology validation, capital formation, and the consummation of key strategic and commercial partnerships,” remarked Tom Einar Jensen, FREYR’s Co-Founder and Executive Chair. “Notably, the CQP remains on track with our previously
1 | News Release | FREYR Battery | www.freyrbattery.com/news communicated production plan, and negotiations for the Giga America project-equity raise are intensifying.
As we continue our operational journey in the second half of 2023, FREYR is pursuing several catalysts to unlock shareholder value and enhance our competitive position.”
Mr. Jensen added, “I am also delighted to welcome Birger Steen as our incoming CEO and as a Board member. I look forward to collaborating closely with him, FREYR’s Board of Directors, and our entire leadership team to spearhead corporate development and capital formation initiatives. As I assume the responsibilities of Executive Chair from Torstein, I feel deep gratitude for his dedicated stewardship of FREYR and his mentorship in our formational years. On behalf of FREYR’s investors, Board of Directors, leadership team, and employees, I wish to extend our heartfelt thanks for his contributions – we wish Torstein all the best in his retirement.”
Business Update
•FREYR’s operations team continues to execute the Company’s production plan and is on track to achieve key milestones at the CQP. In the weeks following the Company reaching the landmark achievement in June of assembling and successfully charging the first semi-automated battery unit cells, FREYR has now completed the handovers of 321 of 386 commissioning packages integrating the 35 production line equipment sections and finalizing building and infrastructure works, with a total of 343 packages completed and awaiting final sign off. The teams at the CQP have also commenced a testing program for Nidec, during which the Company will demonstrate semi-automated production of cells with full automation of the production process expected to follow.
•FREYR continues to execute the Company’s plan to fast-track development of Giga America. Management presentations to select strategic and financial sponsors to support a targeted $1 billion raise of project-level equity for Phase 1a have been ongoing since June with closing anticipated in early 4Q 2023. Additionally, FREYR has launched the application process with the U.S. DOE Loan Programs Office under Title XVII to facilitate construction of Phase 1b. In parallel with capital formation workstreams related to Giga America, permitting for pre-construction, construction, and ongoing operations are underway; front-end engineering and design, and building and infrastructure engineering has been initiated; and electric utilities contract negotiations are nearing completion. FREYR intends to reach an investment decision and begin construction of Giga America before year-end 2023 with a targeted start of production for Phase 1a in summer 2025.
•A recently commissioned report from Rystad Energy (“Rystad”) has projected that the deep market short of LFP battery production is poised to persist through 2030. The report’s findings, which were based on Rystad’s proprietary supply modeling framework, indicated that a shortfall of LFP capacity globally is likely in 2030 under a 1.6-degree demand scenario.
•FREYR’s financing activities are advancing through project level financing efforts with strategic and financial stakeholders. Discussions include parallel work streams with potential project-level equity subscribers, debt support through project financing banks, and applications under the U.S. DOE’s Loan Office to finance the initial and subsequent phases of Giga America, which is supported by the IRA; and Giga Arctic, which is supported by the ongoing project financing process and the anticipated Norwegian IRA response. Both processes are linked to relevant progress on battery cell performance and operating parameters at the CQP.
•Discussions are ongoing to formalize and announce the participation of new strategic partners in the Energy Transition Acceleration Coalition (“ETAC”). The new participants are expected to team with FREYR and ETAC representatives Glencore Plc (LN: GLEN), Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT), Siemens AG (GY: SIE), and Nidec.
2 | News Release | FREYR Battery | www.freyrbattery.com/news
•The work to operationalize the ETAC is progressing. Existing and prospective coalition members have identified core focus areas that will require substantial scale up of sustainable battery solutions. Such focus areas currently include the decarbonization of heavy industry and mining, providing energy as a service product, enabling sustainable supply chains, ensuring recycling and circular solutions as well as the decarbonization of other sectors. Since the launch of this initiative, FREYR has been approached by a broad range of other multinational companies from various sectors expressing interest in joining the coalition.
•Construction of Giga Arctic continues to proceed at a measured pace in anticipation of a potential Norwegian response to the IRA. FREYR spent $64.3 million on previously authorized capital expenditures in 2Q 2023, approximately 84% of which were allocated to Giga Arctic.
•FREYR continues to make significant progress developing its global supply chain by evaluating, pursuing, advancing, and signing raw materials agreements with its growing network of partners. In accordance with the Company’s plan to develop Giga Arctic and Giga America in parallel while localizing supply chains, FREYR is expanding existing relationships with suppliers to include U.S. plant development and pursuing backup and alternative sources of key material inputs.
Overview of Financial Results
•FREYR reported a net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders for the second quarter of 2023 of $(25.3) million, or $(0.18) per diluted share compared to net income for the second quarter 2022 of $4.7 million or $0.04 per diluted share. The net loss in the second quarter of 2023 was due to corporate overhead, spending to support FREYR's projects and business development activities, and research and development spending, partially offset by gains on foreign currency transactions.
•As of June 30, 2023, FREYR had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $383.8 million.
Business Outlook
FREYR is focused on advancing the following strategic mandates and milestones:
•Execute the recently initiated testing program for Nidec, integrate production line equipment modules to reach fully automated production of cells and modules, and ramp production of testable batteries. The capability to produce sample cells from the CQP is expected to accelerate and cement customer dialogues, fortify FREYR’s competitive position, demonstrate the scalability of the 24M manufacturing process, and satisfy key technical performance milestones for financing purposes.
•Complete the project-level equity raise for Giga America with strategic and prospective financial partners, reach Final Investment Decision for Phase 1a of Giga America, and commence construction before year-end 2023. The fast-tracked development of Giga America is intended to accelerate the Company’s expansion in the U.S. to address customer inquiries for fit-for-purpose ESS solutions and to maximize the financial impact of the IRA along with state and local tax incentive packages.
•Finalize the redomiciling process to the United States by year-end 2023. The redomiciling to the U.S. is expected to dramatically enhance FREYR’s eligibility for inclusion in equity indexes and trigger associated benchmarking from actively managed funds, thereby delivering a significant uplift in fund flows to FREYR’s common equity.
•Leverage the appointment of Birger Steen as Chief Executive Officer and other ongoing recruiting initiatives to execute FREYR’s technology leadership strategy. As previously communicated, FREYR intends to accelerate the development of its proprietary, in-house development of AI and digitally enhanced simulation systems. Battery design and production represent the next frontier in AI-supported
3 | News Release | FREYR Battery | www.freyrbattery.com/news production with the potential to dramatically improve future battery cell performance, as well as testing and production lead times in deep collaboration with globally leading companies.
•Advance and/or finalize FREYR’s various capital formation initiatives in parallel with cooperation from leading strategic, financial, and government stakeholders. FREYR’s intensifying financing processes include prospective project level investment discussions; engagement with the U.S. DOE to secure financial assistance packages; advancing the Giga Arctic project financing; and a range of industrial partnership opportunities.
•Advance discussions that will further FREYR’s ambition to be an industrial scaling partner of choice for leading complementary technology platforms that target distinct and additional end market applications across the ESS, passenger EV, and commercial electric mobility markets.
•Continue to broaden and augment FREYR’s value proposition with the intention to maximize sustainable long-term shareholder value and enhance the Company’s competitive position. Key objectives in accordance with this strategy are to continue to forge new strategic and financial partnerships that advance and accelerate the Company’s industrialization plan and capital formation.
