Hyliion Holdings Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Financial Results

Hyliion Holdings Corp. (NYSE: HYLN) (“Hyliion”), a leader in electrified powertrain solutions for Class 8 semi-trucks, today reported its fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 financial results.

Key Business Highlights

  • Achieved new Hypertruck ERX™ commercialization milestone
  • Obtained a 10-unit order for the Hypertruck ERX powertrain from DSV Logistics
  • Announcing collaboration with Hyzon Motors to jointly develop a fuel cell powered truck
  • Met 2022 revenue guidance
  • Ended 2022 with $422 million of available capital on the balance sheet
  • 2023 operating expense guidance of $130 - $140 million

Executive Commentary

“We remained on track by hitting all our commercialization milestones for the Hypertruck ERX powertrain in 2022. The year was marked by many impactful accomplishments for Hyliion. We achieved our revenue guidance for Hybrid, including full truck sales, we acquired the KARNO™ generator technology from GE, and we obtained 210 orders for production slots for the Hypertruck ERX powertrain,” said Hyliion’s Founder and CEO, Thomas Healy.

Hypertruck ERX System Development

In the fourth quarter, the Company continued the design-verification phase of its Hypertruck ERX system with additional controlled fleet trials, most recently with Ruan Transportation. The Company also launched winter testing.

Overall, Hyliion remains on schedule to start Hypertruck ERX system production in late 2023, as the Company continues to achieve the previously-announced commercialization milestones. This marks the fifth consecutive quarter that the Company has met the commercialization milestones initially laid out on the third-quarter 2021 earnings call.

Hypertruck ERX System Orders

During the fourth quarter the Company received 10 Hypertruck ERX system orders from DSV Logistics, with an option to buy 10 additional units. DSV is one of the largest third-party logistics companies in the world and is focused on expanding its business in the U.S. As the Company nears completion of its development and testing milestones for the Hypertruck ERX system later in 2023, it expects to see an uptick in additional customer orders for delivery in 2024.

Hyzon Motors Collaboration

The Company is announcing a new agreement with Hyzon Motors to develop a fuel cell powered vehicle. This development is the third step in the Company’s multi-stage product roadmap towards a hydrogen future. The vehicle will use Hyliion’s electric powertrain system and Hyzon’s fuel cell technology as the generator. The powertrain will be integrated into a Peterbilt chassis.

“Today, we are announcing an innovative collaboration with Hyzon Motors to jointly develop a fuel cell powered vehicle. Hyzon is an industry leader in developing and manufacturing fuel cells purpose-built for heavy-duty applications, and Hyliion is an industry leader in electric powertrain solutions. We are excited about having the opportunity for our teams to work together,” said Hyliion’s Founder and CEO, Thomas Healy.

Financial Highlights, Operating Expense and 2023 Guidance

In the fourth quarter, the Company recorded $1.1 million in revenue related to Hybrid sales. The Company’s fourth quarter operating expenses totaled $31.6 million for the quarter, $5 million higher than a year ago, mainly due to higher research and development spending. Hyliion ended the fourth quarter with $422 million of cash, short-term and long-term investments, which is expected to be sufficient to fund current commercialization activities for the Hypertruck ERX powertrain, as well as initial development activities for the KARNO product and the Hyzon Motors collaboration project.

For full-year 2022, Hyliion’s net loss totaled $153.4 million, or $124.6 million excluding $28.8 million of one-time research and development expenses related to the KARNO generator acquisition in the third quarter, up $28.5 million (excluding the KARNO acquisition) compared to a $96.0 million net loss in the prior year.

Looking forward, the Company expects full-year 2023 operating expenses to be in the $130 to $140 million range. This estimate reflects continued focus on delivering the Hypertruck ERX system in late 2023 and efforts to develop the KARNO generator technology, the Hyzon fuel cell collaboration project, and other development projects. The Company is also expecting SG&A spending growth to level off in 2023 as it invests further in in-house engineering and development resources.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Conference Call

Hyliion will host a conference call and accompanying webcast at 11:00 a.m. EST / 10:00 a.m. CST on Wednesday, March 1 to discuss its financial and business results, and outlook. The live webcast of the call, as well as an archived replay following, will be available online on the Investor Relations section of Hyliion’s website.
