Financial and Install Outlook Update
The cost efficiency measures announced today intend to align Volta's business with current market conditions. In addition to the risk factors outlined in Volta's previous disclosures, these factors include: the advertising environment, particularly as automotive brands delay advertising spend due to inventory shortages; limited electrical transformer availability affecting DC Fast charger installations; and the impact of the Q4 shopping season on construction availability at commercial properties.
Given the ongoing execution of Volta's strategic reprioritization, combined with these market conditions and an uncertain macroeconomic environment, the company is revising its Q3 revenue guidance to between $13.5 million and $14.5 million. Furthermore, the company is withdrawing its full year 2022 revenue and install guidance until further notice. Volta remains committed to securing additional funding — including government incentives that will become available in 2023 — and pursuing further cost savings initiatives.
