Thank you for joining our conference call. To start the call, let me give you a brief update about where we are today, along with our production plans, delivery plans, and our go-to market strategy for those that are less familiar with the story. Following this, Matthias will present an overview of FF 91 vehicle and provide some updated regarding our technologies. Yun will provide a review with our financials, covering topics such as fundraising and the measures we've implemented to strengthen Faraday Future. To start off, I'm proud to say that we have hit the ground running in 2023. On March 29th, we successfully started the production of our flagship FF 91 vehicle. Though we faced some challenges during the early wrap-up, our team is overcoming these obstacles. We continue to target kicking off our first phase delivery of FF 91 at the end of May, as previously announced. To reach this important milestone, we have made considerable progress and accomplished numerous key operational and strategy objectives in recent months. On April 14, 2023, our first production FF 91 vehicle rolled off the line at our FF ieF actory, California, in a video-streamed event that was watched by millions of FF fans globally. It has been a long path for Faraday Future. We believe this is the year we made history. Homologation for FF 91 is progressing as planned. Most of the FMVSS testing have been successfully completed. We have performed the highest severity crash test and has passed all of these tests successfully, including the front, side, and the zero crash tests. We are very happy with how the tests are progressing and believe this result really validates the quality of our engineering. On the systems and software side, we've also made some significant progress. Two weeks ago, we showcased the FF 91 vehicle's ability to integrate generative AI to enable an intuitive and interactive experience for users within the vehicle. We believe this truly epitomized that Faraday Future has communicated to its users and investors all along. That FF 91 is a pioneer of emerging technology. In terms of our manufacturing efforts, we achieved the start of production of FF 91 at the end of March, as planned. Our Hanford team is hard at work wrapping up production with the goal of delivering the highest quality FF 91 vehicles to our users. As of today, we've built all the vehicles required for FMVSS testing. Further, the first production vehicles coming off the line provided the necessary learning for fine-tune the process, which has allowed the coming vehicles in production to run through the assembly more smoothly than the previous vehicles. Additionally, in the continuous spirit of FF co-creation and co-sharing vision, we recently outlined a three-phase delivery plan aimed at delivering the best experience to all our users. In the first phase, FF will give our industry expert Futurist Product Officers or FPO their first look, and allow these users the first chance to pay in full to reserve and experience the innovative FF 91. The industry expert FPOs will take processing of the reserved FF 91 vehicles at the beginning of the second phase. This initial phase is slated for launch at end of May, marking the start of our delivery plan for the vehicles. In phase two, targeted to start at the end of the second quarter, assuming receiving parts on our required timeframe and the completing of the required tests. All FPOs are invited to start purchasing the vehicle to experience the FF 91. Users will take full processing of the car and receive comprehensive trainings to make the most of the vehicle's many features. This also marks the turning point where Faraday Future will become a revenue-generating company going forward. The third and final phase, our full co-creation delivery, is geared towards all users. In this phase, the company will deliver FF 91 vehicles to all spire users that pay in full. Our three phases delivery is designed to offer flexibility for our manufacturing operation and market demands, while ensuring that all FF 91 user receive the best possible experience. We believe that this approach will also enable the company to avoid production shortfalls that may arise from high demand. Please note that successful completion of the third phase delivery plan is contingent on secure the necessary financing and receiving the parts on our required time frame. Shifting to our go-to-market strategy and sales approach. Our FPO program is designed to reward early adopters through co-creation for providing direct feedback about their user experience. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and user feedback, we believe we can provide the best possible experience for customers throughout their entire ownership journey. Additionally, we are undertaking several initiatives designed to provide premium service solution to our customers. We are working with the National Automobile Club to offer 24/7 nationwide roadside assistance to all FF 91 owners. We have also introduced the all-new FF Home Charger that support up to 19.2 kilowatts and is smart and Wi-Fi connected. Furthermore, we are introducing our FF Mobile Service, allowing users to enjoy concierge-style service experience which leverages our FF Mobile Service fleet and centrally located service hubs. We expect to route our service network in the Los Angeles Metro, San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego and New York Metro markets for 2023. These initiatives demonstrate our commitment to providing our customer with the best possible service and support throughout their ownership experience. We remain excited for the future and looking forward to update you with our latest developments. Now I would like to turn the call over to Matthias. Thanks, Xuefeng. I would like to take a few moments and provide a brief overview of our innovative FF 91 vehicle to those that might be new to Faraday Future. Our flagship FF 91 Futurist sets a new standard for user experience and performance in the automotive industry. It features a custom electric drive unit with a fully integrated design, active oil cooling and independent rear axle drive. Its 1,050 horsepower propulsion system is powered by proprietary software and control algorithms, optimizing performance, stability and safety. With an EPA certified range of 381 miles, the FF 91 Futurist offers 50 to 70 miles more range than its direct competitors, and accelerates from zero to 60 miles per hour in a remarkable 2.27 seconds. In addition to the robust performance of the vehicle, the in-cabin experience sets a new standard for the automotive industry, particularly as mobile connectivity is becoming an increasingly important feature for passengers. With a unique rear intelligent internet and user experience that establishes a mobile, connected, intelligent and luxurious third internet living space and user mobility ecosystem platform, the FF 91 is raising the bar. Looking ahead, we recognize the importance of integrating AI capabilities into our everyday lives as AI is rapidly transforming human lifestyles and economic norms. We have been investing in software, AI, and human machine interaction for a long time, and we believe that places us in a unique position to utilize these advances in AI. Specifically to use generative AI in a car requires a powerful computing platform, a robust operating system, internet connectivity, and suitable displays. The FF 91 was designed with advanced capabilities across these areas. On May second, we announced our Generative AI Product Stack that combines these capabilities along with advanced large language models, with the goal of empowering users to gradually utilize advanced generative models for a range of personalized applications in the vehicle, including complex text and voice queries, image and video generation, stock analysis, live translations, search, entertainment, education, e-commerce and more. We believe this is a major step towards transformation of the transportation industry with intelligent electric vehicles. The third intelligent internet space applies natural language communication abilities to various usage scenarios in the vehicle, which we believe will create an unprecedented immersive experience of artificial intelligence, interaction and communication for users. With our FF AI technology, users can enjoy an extraordinary level of personalization and convenience while on the go. With the rise of intelligent electric vehicles, driving experiences and digital cockpits are becoming increasingly intelligent. In the future, we believe AI will be the core competitiveness of mobility, transforming the way we think about mobility solutions. AI will redefine the user scenarios of future mobility solutions and create new mobility ecosystem that leverages cutting-edge technology to provide unparalleled user experience. With these advancements, we believe we are poised to revolutionize the way we think about transportation and unlock a whole new world of possibilities. FF has always been at the forefront of innovation and intelligent electric vehicles, and as one of the world's first vehicle manufacturers to adopt generative AI technology, we remain committed to ongoing research and development of AI technology platforms. Our focus is on applying these technologies to autonomous driving platforms and the third intelligent internet space. Now, I will turn the call over to Yun, who will go over the financials. Thank you, Matthias. I would like to begin by providing a financial overview followed by discussion on our funding effort and cost-cutting strategy. First, I would like to summarize our financial results for the first quarter of 2023. Faraday Future reported operating expenses of $83 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to our operating expenses of $149 million for three months ended March 31, 2022. The change in operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease in engineering, design, and testing services as the company substantially completed research and development activities related to the FF 91 vehicle in 2022, and was focused on capitalizable activities attributable to start of production, which was achieved on March 29th, 2023, combined with decreases in professional services, mainly due to the conclusion of the special committee investigation and other cost-cutting measures. Net income was $6 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2023, as compared to a net loss of $153 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2022. The change was primarily due to the change in operating expense and income of $95 million associated with mark-to-market measurements of the secure convertible notes and warrants recorded in the first quarter this year, driven by the decline in the company's stock price. Turning to our balance sheet. Total assets on March 31, 2023 were $575 million, compared to $510 million of total assets as of December 31, 2022. Total liabilities were $319 million versus $328 million on December 31, 2022. Since inception, the company has incurred accumulative losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities. The company's accumulated deficit was approximately $3.5 billion as of March 31, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31st, 2023 was $103 million, compared to $122 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2022. Capital expenditures were $17 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2023, compared to $44 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2022. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31st, 2023 was $134 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $86 million for the three months ended March 31st, 2022. Cash as of March 31st, 2023 was $33 million, including restricted cash of $1.5 million. The decrease in cash from March 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023 was mainly due to negative cash used in operations as part of development of FF 91 vehicle and capital expenditures on the California plant readiness. Partially offset by the proceed raised to finance such initiatives. Research and development accounted for 56% of total operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2023. I would like to provide a funding update. In Q1, we successfully secured $135 million of gross funding in support of our SOP and production plans, which we have received $120 million gross to date. Since then, our capital team have continued to work towards additional funding for our production, delivery, and ramp. On May ninth, we announced additional $100 million of committed financing via unsecured convertible notes subject to certain conditions. FF Global Partners, consisting of 20 current and former senior executives of the company, have committed $80 million in this round of financing. This investment shows FF Global Partners continued commitment to the company as well as show of confidence by our core management team in the company's ability to achieve its mid and long-term goals. As a show of support, the unsecured investor and FF Global Partners have already early funded a portion of this commitment. Additionally, we have remaining committed financing of $35 million subject to certain conditions and milestones. We expect to have revenue from vehicle sales, and we may receive $242 million financing, which is at option of our existing investors. Since the beginning of this year, the company has received $38 million gross financing, which was at the option of investors. This represents a significant portion of the option notes that the company allocated to previous secured financing. We also have an equity line of credit of up to $350 million, subject to certain conditions, which we have not yet used as we want to be very strategic about accessing the equity line of credit to minimize dilution. Furthermore, the company is also exploring asset-based financing opportunities. In addition to the fundraising, we have been implementing several cost-cutting initiatives that have enabled us to focus on core items that are essential to delivering the FF 91 vehicle. We continue to improve efficiency and reduce material costs and have developed a detailed roadmap of both engineering and commercial cost downs. Lastly, we reiterate our goal to create a profitable business with operating cash flow breakeven in 2025. With that, I'll hand it back to XF. Thank you, Yun. Again, I'm very proud of hard work and determination shown by the FF team to successfully reach all our production milestones. We are looking forward to ramping up production at our Hanford plant in the coming quarters. Thank you for your time and interest, and I look forward to providing you with future updates on our latest developments. Operator, we are ready to take questions. Thank you. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. Our first question is from Stephen Gengaro with Stifel. Please proceed. Thanks, good afternoon, everybody. Two questions from me, if you don't mind. The first, when we think about what the legacy OEMs are doing, there's obviously a lot of new vehicles coming into the market, how do you differentiate yourself in the market? Maybe talk a little bit about the differentiation and sort of the target consumer for the FF 91. Hey, Stephen, it's Charles. Thanks for the question. I think I'll hand that over to my colleague here. Prashant Gulati is our head of strategy. Prashant. Stephen, thank you for that question. you know, generally, if you think about the company's mission, vision, our ambition for the world is, you know, that people should be able to live more, breathe more freely. That's why we started the business in 2014. We generally think it's a net positive as EVs become more mainstream. It's better than having gas cars on the road, right? Now, that said, we differentiate ourselves in at least four ways, right? I'll go over, let's say, a little bit of detail in each, but let me just lay out structurally how we think of those four ways. One is we are setting up a strong brand with a very differentiated product positioning and products. All right. Two, it's a very attractive and large target market segment in our dual home markets of U.S. and China. Third is a clean sheet approach that we have taken to creating vertically integrated technology and the moat and the patterns we've created around this. Finally, you know, the critical inflection point where we are at, like XF mentioned, we've started production, our first vehicle line-off done, and very near deliveries. Those are kind of the four key ways we think of it. Just, you know, to get a little bit more specific about your question in terms of user, target users and vehicle. In the segment competing with Rolls-Royce. Maybach, Bentley, and Ferrari, right? The way we think of the car, the flagship FF 91 is it's an all-in-one car. Has the comfort of an SUV, the performance of a, and handling of a sports differentiated product, where we've spent a lot of time, money working with users to create a frictionless user experience. We are going to take the car to the market with a direct sales model with both online presence and in-person experience centers with, you know, for constant user engagement. The technology I think we've spoken enough about in the past, so maybe, you know, I'll not talk too much, but just at a high level. You know, we've created our own Variable Platform Architecture, that you can think of it like a LEGO. You can create more vehicle models on it. You can stretch the wheelbase, you can reduce the battery size, et cetera. We've created our own propulsion system, and most importantly, which is where the third way is where we are different from our competition is our Internet and AI capability. Not only in software, but we've invested a ton of time, money, resources and create a differentiated capability in software and AI. That, all of that brought together with a new management, new board, shareholder alignment that we've had over the last few months. All 600 employees are working towards this common goal of bringing starting deliveries of the FF 91 fairly shortly. That's great color. You mentioned AI, one of the things that was apparent when I got a chance to sit in the car was the user interface feels a lot more intuitive than a lot of other vehicles I've been in. Can you talk a little bit about... Yeah. Our, our target users are, you know, obviously are busy people. People who value productivity, efficiency. They appreciate technology, right? With that in mind, we've been building our capability not only in software but in internet and artificial intelligence. The FF 91 has three 5G modems, right? It has, excuse me. The car has three 5G modems. You know, you can, we have a compute platform, which is industry-leading that, you know, we spend a lot of time developing. We have an advanced operating system. We've like I said, we built ultra-high-speed internet connectivity into the car. There is natural language processing capability. There has always been... You could do complex queries with the car in the past, which it's far more advanced than other cars on the market where you can talk to like a Siri or Alexa type interface. We've done our own natural language processing. The car has over 100 inches of displays, and now we've kind of brought it all together, Stephen, for through a Generative AI Product Stack, right? These foundational capabilities of an advanced operating system, internet connectivity, compute platform and displays, you don't see that in. I don't think it exists in any other car in the world today. I think we are kind of the first, or one of the first that, you know, will be able to launch with a Generative AI. You know, people can sit in the back of the car or while driving, they can interact with the car and, you know, get a more personalized experience that was not possible before. To be able to do that, we have integrated advanced generative AI models like GPT and, you know, we have the ability to do a whole lot more. We're quite excited about that part in bringing that capability to our users, soon. Great. Thank you for all the detail. That's helpful. Thanks for the question, Stephen. Our next question is from Edison Yu with Deutsche Bank. Please proceed. Hey, thank you, everyone, for the very comprehensive update. I wanted to sort of go over the operational side. I'm wondering, can you describe what exactly needs to be done still done before the customer deliveries can begin? Edison, thanks for the question. I think that's for XF to talk about. Yeah. Thanks very much for this question. You know, we are fighting for the end of quarter two's final delivery to the market. Also with, by the end of May we hold our phase one delivery. These are two major milestone. Before we hand over the vehicle to the customers, we have to complete all the FMVSS vehicle level regulation tests. Right now, as we described in the material, we have done most of the FMVSS test and been successfully completed. The remain crash, the remain test is major for the crash. Up to now, we already produce and ship all the test related vehicle to the test proving ground and also the test label. As of today, we already complete the most sensitive crash test, which including the like the front crash test, the side four crash test, and the rear crash tests. The results is quite positive to us. We will continue to finish the remaining several crash tests. We will have a very good definition and understanding of how good our engineering is and when we can deliver the car before this end of May and end of June, this kind of phase delivery. Out of that, we will continue to improve some of the U.S. related handover, because as we published the last time, we already got the sales license for the California areas. We got a plan to deliver all the sales related certification and all the that kind of compliance items by the relevant milestone. The company, as previously identified, we have a three-phase handover plan up to the successful completion of the final remaining test and all the contingencies of this kind of [U.S.] compliance item. We are working with our suppliers to get their parts on time so that I think we can deliver our vehicles to our customers. Understood. How are you guys feeling about the manufacturing plant readiness and quality? We obviously see a lot of online, a lot of EV startups having issues with that. Do you feel that that aspect is ready to go? Yeah. Regarding to our California FFIE factory, we do have a very good facility already being installed, commissioned, and approved and being used for the SOP, which we published during the SOP events. You know, by end of March, we achieved the start of production, and we got the first car run through the whole manufacturing system as we defined. Which and then we got the first car off line within two weeks, which is mid of April. This car To run this first car, or we call the first batch of the vehicles out of the line, which provide us a very strong lesson learned or know-how, for our people training, the quality improvement, the process validation, and some of the efficiency improvement. Talking about the quality, no doubt, that's as a business normal for the first car, we were facing some of the challenges of the quality, no matter the support quality and the process quality. I think that's quite normal in the industry. My plan is to run the slow build process to get all the issue being resolved and updated batch by batch. Take example, for the first station, for the first car, in the first station, previously it took around 5.5 days to get the car through this station. For the second car, we just use 1.5 days, and we pass through the stations. With this kind of a slow build and a batch build, we can gathering all the relevant issue and improve so that we can, I think, with this kind of current learning and fine-tune the process, we will get more smoother production later on. In parallel, we are working with our supplier and supply chain about the whole year, the volume plan and the for the second half of the year. We do have a business plan in place, and we do have a lot of smart idea to improve our capacity for this year. I think the detailed information will be shared with the team separately in the coming future. Understood. Last question on the funding side. I think you indicated, I think the team indicated that, you receive, you know, additional $240 million at the option of investors. Can you give a little bit more color on that? Yun? Okay, I can take that question. This is a good question, Edison, because we don't often talk about these optional notes. In connection with our previous round of financing, the investor have the opportunities to match or invest a portion of their committed funding. For example, you know, if they committed funding of $50 million, they can match another 100%, there's certain contract you can match up to 50%. The total of those optional investment is $280 million. Since February to April this year, we require investor to fund $38 billion out of the $280 billion. Basically, if, you know, they don't put it in at a specific date, and a specific amount, they'll lose it. We got 100% of participation from the investors. The investor funded all the $38 million that is allocated to the investor. This shows that investors continuous confidence and supportive of the company. Nice. That's encouraging. Appreciate the responses, and thank you for the time. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks, Edison. We have reached the end of our question and answer session, so we will conclude today's conference. You may disconnect your lines at this time, and thank you for your participation. Have a wonderful day.
