Rivian (RIVN) Q2 Revenue Rises 12%

Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN), the electric vehicle startup known for its adventure-oriented trucks and SUVs, released its earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 on August 5, 2025. The most important headline was a return to negative gross profit (GAAP) after two straight positive quarters, despite better-than-expected GAAP revenue performance. Revenue (GAAP) was $1,303 million, compared to the consensus estimate of $1,285.89 million for the same period. This exceeded the consensus estimate by $17.11 million, or 1.33%. Delays in deliveries, high operating costs, and supply chain disruptions pulled down results, leading Rivian to widen its forecast for full-year adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) losses. The period was marked by significant investment developments, with a $1 billion equity injection from Volkswagen Group aimed at future technology and production scale.
