Lucid Group reported third quarter revenue of $350 million and said Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund has expanded its delayed draw term loan facility by $1.75 billion, lifting pro forma liquidity to $3.75 billion.
Why it matters: The expanded facility from Lucid's anchor shareholder is the funding bridge for its turnaround, which the company says now carries operations into the fourth quarter of 2027, through the start of midsize platform production.

Lucid Group said on Monday that the Public Investment Fund, its anchor shareholder, has increased the company’s delayed draw term loan facility by $1.75 billion, taking total liquidity to $3.75 billion on a pro forma basis from $2.0 billion at the end of the third quarter. Third quarter revenue was $350 million, up 4 percent year on year, and free cash flow consumption fell 30 percent sequentially to $1.04 billion under the operating reset announced with the second quarter results.
The company said the expanded facility and its cash flow improvement plan, which has delivered $0.8 billion of a $1.4 billion target so far this year, should fund operations and key investments into the fourth quarter of 2027, bridging the period through the start of production of its midsize platform in the second half of 2027. Lucid’s second Saudi plant, AMP-2, has entered the final stages of commissioning and is expected to be inaugurated in early 2027.
