Faraday Future Announces Positive Progress with Its Historical Liabilities; Launches Its EAI Robotics “Built in USA” Initiative, and Previews the FF "Built in USA" Industry Chain Partner Recruitment Conference Scheduled on August 26th and Sep 28th

  • With the active support of suppliers, creditors, and other industry partners, FF continues to optimize its total liabilities. Based on disclosed figures, total liabilities decreased from approximately $355 million at the end of Q3 2025, when the EAI Robotics business began, to approximately $230 million at the end of Q1 2026, with further progress ongoing. The Company plans to reduce and optimize its total liabilities to below $100 million over the next three to four quarters, providing continued support for the growth of its robotics business in the most effective manner.
  • The FCC’s recent robotics policy creates a favorable opportunity for FF to further accelerate its “Built in USA” initiative and build a U.S. robotics ecosystem supporting the nationwide rollout of its “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” strategy. To prevent this early-stage, high-growth business from being constrained by historical liabilities related to historical issues following FF’s 2021 IPO and automotive strategy, the Company is also accelerating its debt-resolution efforts, a priority shared by investors supportive of FF’s robotics growth potential and its robotics partners.
  • The Company plans to host the FF "Built in USA" Industry Chain Partner Recruitment Conference in two sessions: August 26, 2026 for downstream partners, including major B2B customers, robotics dealers and distributors across the United States, system integrators, data partners, and RoboShare’s robot-sharing and rental platform, and September 28 for upstream partners, including U.S.-based robotics manufacturing partners, core computing and AI partners, key component suppliers, and certification and compliance partners.
  • FF EAI Robotics is coming off a strong sales month with achieved sales and shipments of 152 units in July, setting another monthly record and securing a strong first-month win for the Q3 Robotics Practical Deployment Campaign under its “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” ecosystem strategy. Cumulative sales and shipments reached 394 units for the year.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today announced that it has achieved meaningful progress in addressing its historical liabilities with the active support of suppliers, creditors and other industry partners. Based on disclosed figures, total liabilities decreased from approximately $355 million at the end of Q3 2025, when the EAI Robotics business began, to approximately $230 million at the end of Q1 2026, with further progress ongoing. The Company plans to reduce and optimize its total liabilities to below $100 million over the next three to four quarters, providing continued support for the growth of its robotics business in the most effective manner.





FF’s elimination of historical liabilities aims to create a stronger platform for its robotics business from several perspectives.

Strategic: May accelerate FF’s transformation into a Physical AI company.

Business: Could leverage FF’s mature supply chain to expand the robotics supplier base and advance the Four-Core Full-Stack AI ecosystem.

Financial: May improve the Company’s balance sheet, operating efficiency, and capital utilization.

Capital: Could strengthen market confidence, financing capabilities, and long-term capital support.

Industry: May help invest more resources in the Company’s “Built in USA” initiative, local supply chains, and the U.S. robotics ecosystem.

As part of its “Built in USA” robotics initiative, the Company plans to host the FF "Built in USA" Industry Chain Partner Recruitment Conference in August 2026. The first session of the Conference will take place on August 26, 2026, focusing on downstream partners, showcasing the EAI education ecosystem’s interim achievements, and advancing its nationwide rollout. Participants will include major B2B customers, robotics dealers and distributors across the United States, system integrators, data partners, RoboShare’s robot-sharing and rental platform, and other use-case and channel partners.

The second session, scheduled for September 28, will focus on upstream partners. Invitees will include U.S.-based robotics manufacturing partners, core computing and AI partners, key component suppliers, certification and compliance partners, government and industry partners, as well as other R&D and manufacturing partners.

FF’s robotics sales are coming off a strong month in July. FF EAI Robotics achieved sales and shipments of 152 units, setting another monthly record and securing a strong first-month win for the Q3 Robotics Practical Deployment Campaign under our “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” ecosystem strategy. As of the end of July, cumulative sales and shipments reached 394 units, as FF continued making steady progress toward its full-year shipment target of 2,000 units. FF’s four industry ecosystems and productivity solutions—across education, industrial applications, security and inspection, and other existing markets—are rapidly taking shape, building sustained momentum for the continued ramp-up of sales and deliveries.

Seizing the opportunity created by the FCC’s new policy on robotics, FF has launched the FF EAI Robotics “Built in USA” Acceleration Program, with the goal of fully implementing its “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” robotics ecosystem across the United States. The program will be carried out in three phases:

Phase One: The Company has already completed the initial localized implementation of three of the four cores—the EAI Brain; EAI industry productivity solutions and developer platform; and the EAI Data Factory. This has established a solid technology foundation for the continued development of FF’s robot device core and enabled FF to prepare well in advance for potential future ICTS-related regulatory requirements.

Phase Two: Accelerate the transition to “Assembled in USA” for FF’s robot devices and the parts subject to FCC compliance requirements. The Company is working to localize robot production in the United States within a shorter timeframe and with greater efficiency, including exploring plans for FF Hanford manufacturing facility transformation and new location exploration.

Phase Three: Ultimately achieve “Made in USA” for FF’s robot devices and certain parts subject to the FCC’s Covered List requirements.
