CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on

Form 10-Q

(this “report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are forward-looking and as such are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding future financial performance, business strategies, expansion plans, future results of operations, estimated revenues, losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management. These forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations, estimates, projections and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions concerning future events, and are not guarantees of performance. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this report, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “would” and variations thereof and similar words and expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this report may include, for example, statements about:

•

our ability to maintain the listing of our Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) on the NYSE;

•

our ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination (as defined below), which may be affected by, among other things, competition and our ability to grow and manage growth profitably;

•

our ability to enter into binding contracts with OEMs

or tier-one

suppliers in order to execute on our business plan;

•

our ability to execute our business model, including market acceptance of our planned products and services;

•

our expansion plans and opportunities;

•

our expectations regarding future expenditures;

•

our ability to raise capital in the future;

•

our ability to attract and retain qualified employees and key personnel;

•

the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors;

•

changes in applicable laws or regulations;

•

the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings;

•

the possibility

that COVID-19

may adversely affect the results of our operations, financial position and cash flows; and

•

other factors described in this report, including those described in the section entitled “

Risk Factors

” under Part I, Item 1A of our most recent Annual Report on Form

10-K,

as amended, and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on our business. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting our business will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in the section entitled “

Risk Factors

” under Part I, Item 1A of our amended Annual Report on Form

10-K/A.

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the effect of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements made by us in this report speak only as of the date of this report. Except to the extent required under the federal securities laws and rules and regulations of the SEC, we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there is no assurance that the events or results suggested by the forward-looking statements will in fact occur, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousands, except share data)

(Unaudited)

1. Overview of the Company

Fisker Inc. (“Fisker” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the State of Delaware in October 13, 2017 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp. (“Spartan”) for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, rec

pitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Spartan completed its Initial Public Offering in August 2018. On October 29, 2020, Spartan’s wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into Fisker Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Legacy Fisker”), with Legacy Fisker Holdings Inc. (f/k/a Fisker Inc.) surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, Spartan changed its name to Fisker Inc.

Legacy Fisker was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 21, 2016. In connection with its formation, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements with the Company’s founders, whereby the founders contributed certain IP (primarily trademarks) and interests in Platinum IPR LLC. Platinum IPR LLC was an entity solely owned by the Company’s founders, which held Fisker trademarks registered in a variety of jurisdictions around the world. The founders’ transfer of its interest in Platinum IPR LLC and the transfer of trademarks was accounted for as a transfer of assets between entities under common control. The carrying amount of the transferred assets is recorded based on the prior carrying value, which was de minimis.

The Company’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “FSR”. The Company’s warrants previously traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “FSR WS” and

de-listed

on April 19, 2021, (refer to Note 8 for further information).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, as well as other information disclosed in the accompanying notes, are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on

Form 10-K/A

for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Comprehensive loss is not separately presented as the amounts are equal to net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future years or interim periods.

Table of Contents

Reverse Recapitalization

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization and Spartan was treated as the “acquired” company for accounting purposes. The Business Combination was accounted as the equivalent of Legacy Fisker issuing stock for the net assets of Spartan, accompanied by a recapitalization. Accordingly, all historical financial information presented in these consolidated financial statements represents the accounts of Legacy Fisker and its wholly owned subsidiaries “as if” Legacy Fisker is the predecessor to the Company. The shares and net loss per common share, prior to the Business Combination, have been adjusted as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination.

Going Concern, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company evaluated whether there are any conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q.

Since inception, the Company has incurred significant losses of approximately $325 million. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $985 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. Proceeds from the Business Combination and exercised public warrants provide the Company the liquidity and capital resources to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months from issuance.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the accounting guidance in ASC 820,

Fair Value Measurement

, for its fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.

The accounting guidance requires fair value measurements be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, for similar assets or liabilities that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

Income Taxes

Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740,

Income Taxes

(“ASC 740”), which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the consolidated financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

There are transactions that occur during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. As of March 31, 2021, there were no material changes to either the nature or the amounts of the uncertain tax positions previously determined for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company’s income tax provision consists of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes based on enacted rates, as adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in the tax law. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against the full value of its U.S. and state net deferred tax assets because the Company believes the recoverability of the tax assets is not more likely than not as of March 31, 2021.

Derivative Liability

The Company accounts for its public and private warrants as a derivative liability initially measured at its fair values and remeasured in the condensed consolidated statement of operations at the end of each reporting period. When the warrants are exercised, the corresponding derivative liability is

de-recognized

at the underlying fair value of the Class A common stock that is issued to the warrant holder less any cash paid in accordance with the warrant agreement. Upon either cash or cashless exercise, the derecognized derivative liability results in an increase in additional paid in capital equal to the difference between the fair value of the underlying Class A common stock and its par value. A cashless exercise results in the warrant holder surrendering Class A common stock equal to the stated warrant exercise price based on the contractual terms in the warrant agreement that govern the cashless conversion.

Net Loss per Share of Common Stock

Basic net loss per share of common stock is calculated using the

two-class

method under which earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. Undistributed net losses are allocated entirely to common shareholders since the participating security has no contractual obligation to share in the losses. Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common shares by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock (using the treasury stock method).

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU

No. 2019-12,

Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes

, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU

No. 2019-12

removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. This guidance had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption in 2021.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU

No. 2016-13,

Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

. This guidance introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. This ASU also provides updated guidance regarding the impairment of

available-for-sale

debt securities and includes additional disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective for

non-public

companies, and public business entities that meet the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Business Combination and Recapitalization

On October 29, 2020, the Company consummated the Business Combination with Legacy Fisker pursuant to the business combination agreement between Legacy Fisker and Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp. (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to ASC 805, for financial accounting and reporting purposes, Legacy Fisker was deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company was treated as the accounting acquiree, and the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of the Legacy Fisker issuing stock for the net assets of Spartan, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Spartan were stated at historical costs, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, and are consolidated with Legacy Fisker’s financial statements on the Closing date. The shares and net income (loss) per share available to holders of the Company’s common stock, prior to the Business Combination, have been adjusted as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the Business Combination, Spartan entered into subscription agreements with certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”), whereby pursuant to which it issued

50,000,000

shares of Class A common stock at

$10.00

per share (the “PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of

$500.0

million (the “PIPE Financing”), which closed simultaneously with the consummation of the Business Combination.

The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination and proceeds from the PIPE Financing was approximately $1.8 billion, consisting of 179,192,713 shares of common stock valued at $10.00 per share. The common stock consideration consists of (1) 46,838,585 shares of Legacy Fisker Class A common stock, including shares issuable in respect of vested equity awards of the Legacy Fisker and shares issued in respect of the Bridge notes and Convertible Equity Security, plus (2) 132,354,128 shares of Legacy Fisker Class B common stock.

Conversion of Notes and Preferred Stock upon Recapitalization

Upon the Company formation in September 2016, HF Holdco LLC, an entity controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and founder, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, and founder, advanced the Company $250,000 in the form of a demand note. In May 2020, in satisfaction of the advances made by HF Holdco LLC, the Company issued a bridge note payable to HF Holdco LLC with the principal sum of $250,000 and convertible into Class A Common Stock upon completion of the Business Combination and is no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2020. The bridge note bears substantially the same terms as the bridge notes payable.

From July 2019 to September 2020, the Company entered into bridge note agreements with investors. Certain holders of the bridge notes were issued option agreements providing the holder with a

non-binding

right to receive a base model Fisker Ocean SUV within the first 12 months of production, subject to certain terms and conditions. The proceeds received from these holders were allocated to the bridge notes and option agreements on a relative fair value basis, resulting in an initial discount to the bridge notes.

The automatic exchange feature is the predominant settlement feature and the change of control feature within the bridge notes are embedded contingent put options that, collectively, are required to be bifurcated from the debt host and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings (see Note 4). After bifurcation of the embedded derivative, the initial carrying value of the bridge notes are accreted to their stated principal value over the contractual term of the bridge notes, using the effective interest method. The Company recognized approximately $0.2 million of accretion of debt discount from the issuance dates of the bridge notes through March 31, 2020, classified as Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The embedded derivative was eliminated upon the conversion of the bridge notes payable at the close of the Business Combination.

In June 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the note agreements with holders of the Company’s outstanding bridge notes to provide for amendments to the definition of the Next Equity Financing such that in the event of a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation (“SPAC”) Transaction, as defined, prior to repayment or conversion in full of the note, immediately prior to such SPAC Transaction, the outstanding principal and any accrued

Table of Contents

but unpaid interest under the bridge notes shall automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company (or, at the election of the Company, directly into proceeds paid to the holders of Class A Common Stock in connection with such SPAC Transaction) at a price per share that is 75% of the price per share of Class A Common Stock paid in such SPAC Transaction. Upon the Closing, the conversion feature upon a business combination was triggered for the bridge notes causing a conversion of the $10.0 million outstanding principal amount of these bridge notes at a specified price. The noteholders received 1,361,268 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company as result of the conversion.

Prior to the Closing, Fisker had shares of $0.00001 par value Series A, Series B, and Founders Convertible preferred stock outstanding. The Series A and B preferred shares were convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock of Legacy Fisker based on a specified conversion price calculated by dividing the then-original issue price, as adjusted, for such share of preferred stock by the conversion price, as adjusted, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. Shares of Founders preferred stock, classified in equity, were convertible into Class B Common Stock determined by dividing $0.10, as adjusted, for such share of preferred stock by the conversion price, as adjusted, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. Upon the Closing, the outstanding shares of preferred stock were converted into common stock of the Company at 2.7162, the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination Agreement. Immediately after the Business Combination, Founders Convertible, Series A

(pre-combination),

and Series B

(pre-combination)

converted into 27,162,191 Class A Common Stock, 16,983,241 Class A Common Stock, and 3,765,685 Class A Common Stock, respectively.

4. Fair value measurements

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis and the level of inputs used for such measurements were as follows (in thousands):

Total fair value	$	90,487	$	—	$	47,615	$	138,102

The fair value of the Company’s money market funds is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.

Table of Contents

The carrying amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under Current assets approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s derivative liability for its private and public warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The private warrants fair value is determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which causes it to be classified as a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of the private warrants uses assumptions and estimates the Company believes would be made by a market participant in making the same valuation. The Company assess these assumptions and estimates on an

on-going

basis as additional data impacting the assumptions and estimates are obtained. The Company uses an option pricing simulation to estimate the fair value of its private warrants, all of which were exercised as of March 31, 2021. The public warrants fair value is determined using its publicly traded prices (Level 1) as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liability related to updated assumptions and estimates are recognized within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a

non-operating

expense. For the three-months ended March 31, 2021, the changes in the fair value of the derivative liability resulted from increases in the fair values of the underlying Class A common shares and its associated volatilities.

The reconciliation of changes in Level 3 during the three-months ended March 31, 2021 is as follows:


Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	47,615
Change in fair value		63,526
Exercise of warrants		(111,141	)

The Company did not amortize the capitalized cost associated with the warrants for the year ended December 31, 2020 as amortization will commence on a straight-line basis with the start of production for the Fisker Ocean which is expected to occur in 2022. The Company expects to amortize the intangible asset over eight years

but will continually assess the reasonableness of the estimated life. Refer to Note 8 for additional information regarding the capitalization of costs upon issuance of warrants to Magna International. Also, the Company capitalized certain costs associated with manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean and production of parts in 2021, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis beginning with the start of production for the

Fisker Ocean over eight years.

8. Warrants

Public and Private Warrants

Upon the Closing, there were 18,400,000 public and 9,360,000 private warrants outstanding to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued by Spartan prior to the Business Combination. Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one whole share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, 30 days after the Closing, provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be

non-redeemable

so long as they are held by the Sponsor or any of its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Warrants.

On March 19, 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of its outstanding warrants (the “Public Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value

$0.00001

per share (the “Common Stock”), that were issued under the Warrant Agreement, dated August 9, 2018 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), for a redemption price of

$0.01

per Public Warrant (the “Redemption Price”), that remained outstanding at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on April 22, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”). The Private Placement Warrants were not subject to this redemption. In addition, in accordance with the Warrant Agreement, the Company’s board of directors elected to require that, upon delivery of the notice of redemption, all Public Warrants were to be exercised only on a “cashless basis.” Accordingly, holders could not exercise Public Warrants and receive Common Stock in exchange for payment in cash of the

$11.50

per warrant exercise price. Instead, a holder exercising a Public Warrant was deemed to pay the

$11.50

per warrant exercise price by the surrender of

0.5046

of a share of Common Stock that such holder would have been entitled to receive upon a cash exercise of a Public Warrant. Accordingly, by virtue of the cashless exercise of the Public Warrants, exercising warrant holders received

0.4954

of a share of Common Stock for each Public Warrant surrendered for exercise. Any Public Warrants (including Public Warrants that were not included in outstanding units) that remained unexercised at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date were delisted, void and no longer exercisable. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had issued

3,490,935 shares of Common Stock upon cashless exercise of the Public Warrants. Upon cashless exercise, the Public Warrant holders surrendered 3,556,026 shares of Common Stock as of March 31, 2021. The Company completed the redemption prior to filing this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q

and issued 5,167,791 shares of Common Stock to Public Warrant holders who surrendered 5,264,490 shares of Common Stock. For the remaining 225,906 Public Warrants outstanding at the Redemption Date, the Company paid $2,259 to redeem the unexercised warrants.

Table of Contents

During the three-months ended March 31, 2021, the 9,360,000

warrants to purchase Common Stock that were originally issued under the Warrant Agreement in a private placement simultaneously with the IPO were exercised by the Company’s former sponsor on a cashless basis for

4,907,329

shares of Common Stock

(4,452,671 shares of Common Stock surrendered) and are no longer outstanding.

Since January 1, 2021, the Company has received cash proceeds of $89 million upon the exercise of 7,741,787 Public Warrants immediately prior to the announcement to redeem the Public Warrants. As of March 31, 2021, 33,441 warrants had been exercised for shares of Company Class A common stock generating cash proceeds of $0.4 million which had not been received as of the balance sheet date.

Public and private warrant exercise activity and underlying Common Stock issued or surrendered for the three-months ended March 31, 2021 is:

Magna

Warrants

On October 29, 2020, the

Company

granted Magna International, Inc. (“Magna”) up to 19,474,454 warrants, each with an exercise price of $0.01,

to acquire underlying shares of Class A common stock of Fisker, which represented approximately

ownership in Fisker on a fully diluted basis as of the grant date. The right to exercise vested warrants expires on

October 29, 2030.

The warrants are accounted for as an award issued to non-employees measured on October 29, 2020 with three interrelated performance conditions that are separately evaluated for achievement.

The cost upon achievement of each milestone is recognized when it is probable that a milestone is met. The cost for awards to nonemployees is recognized in the same period and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash for the goods or services. As of March 31, 2021, Magna satisfied the first milestone and the Company capitalized costs of

$58.0

million as an intangible asset representing the future economic benefit to Fisker, Inc. As of March 31, 2021, the Company does not consider the second milestone is probable of being met.

10. Stock Based Compensation

Upon completion of the Business Combination, the 2016 Stock Plan renamed the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). All outstanding awards under the 2016 Stock Plan are modified to adopt the terms under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. The modifications are administrative in nature and have no affect on the valuation inputs, vesting conditions or equity classification of any of the outstanding original awards immediately before and after the close of the Business Combination. The Plan is a stock-based compensation plan which provides for the grants of options and restricted stock to employees and consultants of the Company. Options granted under the Plan may be either incentive options (“ISO”) or nonqualified stock options (“NSO”). The Plan added

24,097,751 shares of Class A Common Stock on October 29, 2020 to increase the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the Plan to 47,698,163 shares (subject to adjustments upon changes in capitalization, merger or certain other transactions). Also, upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company established a 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) under which up to 3,213,034 Class A Common Stock may be issued. As of March 31, 2021, no shares have been issued under the ESPP.

Options under the Plan may be granted at prices as determined by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that (i) the exercise price of an ISO and NSO shall not be less than 100% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and (ii) the exercise price of an ISO granted to a 10% shareholder shall not be less than 110% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant. The fair value of the shares is determined by the Board of Directors on the date of grants. Stock options generally have a contractual life of 10 years. Upon exercise, the Company issues new shares.

In 2016 and 2017, the Company’s founders were granted an aggregate of 15,882,711 options which are fully vested and are not related to performance. Options granted to other employees and consultants become vested and are exercisable over a range of up to six years from the date of grant.

The following table summarizes option activity under the Plan:


	Shares Available For Grant			Options and restricted stock awards			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Contractual Term (in Years)
Balance as of January 1, 2021		28,974,067			18,724,096			0.69		6.5
Granted		(449,295	)		449,295			19.29
Exercised		—			(164,829	)		0.65

Balance as of March 31, 2021		28,582,716			18,952,050			1.11		6.3

Table of Contents

The fair value of each stock option grant under the Plan was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following range of assumptions:


	Three-months Ended March 31,
	2021			2020
Expected term (in years)		6.3			6.3
Volatility		93	% to 99%		83.7	%
Dividend yield		0.0	%		0.0	%
Risk-free interest rate		0.6	% to 1.2%		2.0	%
Common stock price	$	17.22		$	1.41

The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires various highly subjective assumptions that represent management’s best estimates of the fair value of the Company’s common stock, volatility, risk-free interest rates, expected term, and dividend yield. As the Company’s shares have actively traded for a short period of time subsequent to the Business Combination, volatility is based on a benchmark of comparable companies within the automotive and energy storage industries.

The expected term represents the weighted-average period that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules. Since the Company does not have an extended history of actual exercises, the Company has estimated the expected term using a simplified method which calculates the expected term as the average of the

time-to-vesting

and the contractual life of the awards. The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future; therefore, the Company used an expected dividend yield of zero. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury rates in effect during the expected term of the grant. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of publicly-traded peer companies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on

Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

Fisker is building a technology-enabled, asset-light automotive business model that it believes will be among the first of its kind and aligned with the future state of the automotive industry. This involves a focus on vehicle development, customer experience, sales and service intended to change the personal mobility experience through technological innovation, ease of use and flexibility. The Company combines the legendary design and engineering expertise of Henrik Fisker to develop high quality electric vehicles with strong emotional appeal. Central to Fisker’s business model is the Fisker Flexible Platform Agnostic

Design (“FF-PAD”), a

proprietary process that allows the development and design of a vehicle to be adapted to any given electric vehicle (“EV”) platform in the specific segment size. The process focuses on selecting industry leading vehicle specifications and adapting the design to crucial hard points on a third-party supplied EV platform and outsourced manufacturing to reduce development cost and time to market. The first example of this is Fisker’s work to adapt the Fisker Ocean design to a base vehicle platform developed by Magna Steyr. This development with Magna Steyr began in September 2020 and passed the first engineering gateway in November 2020. Fisker believes it is well-positioned through its global premium EV brand, its renowned design capabilities, its sustainability focus, and its asset-light and low overhead, direct to consumer business model which enables products like the Fisker Ocean to be priced roughly equivalent to internal combustion engine-powered SUV’s from premium brand competitors.

The Fisker Ocean is targeting a large and rapidly expanding “premium with volume” segment (meaning a premium automaker producing more than 100,000 units of a single model such as the BMW X3 Series or Tesla Model Y) of the electric SUV market. Fisker expects to begin production of the Ocean as early as the fourth quarter of 2022. The Fisker Ocean, a five-passenger vehicle with potentially

a 250- to

over 350-mile range

and state-of-the-art autonomous

driving capabilities, will be differentiated in the marketplace by its innovative and timeless design and

a re-imagined customer

experience delivered through an advanced software-based user interface. The Fisker Ocean is designed for a high degree of sustainability, using recycled

rubber, eco-suede interior

trim made from recycled polyester, and carpeting from fishing nets and plastic bottles recycled from ocean waste, among many other sustainable

Table of Contents

features. The optional features for the Ocean, including California Mode (patent pending), a solar photovoltaic roof and

“Head-up” display,

resulted in the Fisker Ocean prototype being the most awarded new automobile at CES 2020 by Time, Newsweek, Business Insider, CNET and others.

Fisker believes its innovative business model,

including “E-Mobility-as-a-Service” (“EMaaS”),

will revolutionize how consumers view personal transportation and car ownership. Over time, Fisker plans to combine a customer-focused experience with flexible leasing options, affordable monthly payments and no fixed lease terms, in addition to

direct-to-consumer

sales. Through an innovative platform sharing partnership strategy, Fisker believes that it will be able to significantly reduce the capital intensity typically associated with developing and manufacturing vehicles, while maintaining flexibility and optionality in component sourcing and manufacturing due to

Fisker’s FF-PAD proprietary

process. Through

Fisker’s FF-PAD proprietary

process, Fisker is currently working with Magna Steyr (“Magna”) to develop a proprietary electric vehicle platform called FM29 that will underpin Fisker Ocean and at least one additional nameplate. Fisker intends to cooperate with one or more additional industry-leading original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), technology companies,

and/or tier-one automotive

suppliers for platform sharing and access to procurement networks, while focusing on key differentiators in innovative design, software and user interface. Multiple platform-sharing partners is intended to accelerate growth in Fisker’s portfolio of electric vehicle offerings. Fisker envisions

a go-to-market strategy

with

both web- and app-based digital

sales, loan financing approvals, leasing, and service management, with limited reliance on

traditional brick-and-mortar “sales-and-service” dealer

networks. Fisker believes that this customer-focused approach will drive revenue, user satisfaction and higher margins than competitors.

The Business Combination

Fisker was originally incorporated in the State of Delaware in October 13, 2017 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp. (“Spartan”), formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Spartan completed its IPO in August 2018. In October 2020, Spartan’s wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into a Delaware corporation (“Legacy Fisker”), with Legacy Fisker surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, Spartan changed its name to Fisker Inc.

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the registrant changed its name from Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp. to Fisker Inc. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Spartan was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Legacy Fisker issuing stock for the net assets of Spartan, accompanied by a recapitalization, whereby no goodwill or other intangible assets was recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy Fisker.

Key Trends, Opportunities and Uncertainties

Fisker is

a pre-revenue company

and believes that its future performance and success depends to a substantial extent on the ability to capitalize on the following opportunities, which in turn is subject to significant risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section of the Amended Form

10-K/A

titled “

Risk Factors

.”

Partnering with Industry-Leading OEMs

and/or Tier-One Automotive

Suppliers

Magna Steyr / FM29 Platform (Fisker Ocean)

On October 14, 2020, Fisker and Spartan entered into a Cooperation Agreement with Magna setting forth certain terms for the development of a full electric vehicle (the “Cooperation Agreement”). The Cooperation Agreement sets out the main terms and conditions of the upcoming operational phase agreements (the “Operational Phase Agreements”) that will extend from the Cooperation Agreement and other agreements with Magna (or its affiliates) that are expected to be entered into by and between Fisker and Magna (or its affiliates). On December 17, 2020, Fisker entered into the platform-sharing and initial manufacturing Operational Phase Agreements referenced in the Cooperation Agreement.

co-located

program management office between the U.S. and Taiwan to coordinate design, engineering, purchasing, and manufacturing operations. Following an extensive review of potential U.S. manufacturing sites, the two companies will expedite a manufacturing plan capable of supporting the planned Q4, 2023 start of production.

These

co-operations

allow Fisker to focus on vehicle design, strong brand affiliation and a differentiated customer experience. Fisker intends to leverage multiple EV platforms to accelerate its time to market, rapidly expand its product portfolio, reduce vehicle development costs and gain access to an established global supply chain of batteries and other components.

Fisker believes that its business model will reduce the considerable execution risk typically associated with new car companies. Through such platform sharing, component sourcing and manufacturing partnerships, Fisker believes it will be able to accelerate its time to market and reduce vehicle development costs. Fisker remains

workforces. Remaining hardware agnostic allows for selection of partners, components, and manufacturing decisions to be based on both timeline and cost advantages and enables Fisker to focus on delivering truly innovative design features, a superior customer experience, and a leading user interface that leverages sophisticated software and other technology advancements.

Fisker continues to negotiate a potential relationship with several other industry-leading OEMs

and tier-one automotive

suppliers. Fisker has entered into agreements covering the Magna base platform, development and engineering services, and manufacturing, among others. Extended negotiation of the specific project-related agreements, the sourcing of components or labor at higher than anticipated cost, or any delays in sourcing suppliers of sustainable parts may delay Fisker’s commercialization plans or require it to change the anticipated pricing of its vehicles. Such delays could be caused by a variety of factors, some of which may be out of Fisker’s control. For example, the outbreak of

the COVID-19 pandemic

has severely restricted international travel, which may make it more difficult for Fisker to conclude agreements with partners outside the United States. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Fisker—Fisker faces risks related to health epidemics, including the

recent COVID-19 pandemic,

which could have a material adverse effect on its business and results of operations.” Unanticipated events, delays in negotiations by third parties and any required changes in Fisker’s current business plans could materially and adversely affect its business, margins and cash flows.

Market Trends and Competition

Fisker anticipates robust demand for the Fisker Ocean, based on its award-winning design, its unique sustainability features, the management team’s experience

and know-how and,

in particular, the growing acceptance of and demand for EVs as a substitute for gasoline-fueled vehicles. Many independent forecasts are assuming that EV’s as percentage of global auto sales will grow from less than 3% in 2020 to more than 20% in 2030. One such report from RBC, published in October 2020, assumes sales of EV’s to grow from less than 2.0 million units globally (less than 3% of total volume) to 25 million units in 2030 (approximately 25% of total volume), a 29% CAGR. The EV market is highly competitive, but Fisker believes will remain less competitive than the ICE market for some time. For example, there are 79 nameplates sold in the US market within the compact and midsize SUV category currently while most observers expect no more than

10-20

EV’s in those segments at the time Fisker launches, most of which are expected to be priced well-above Fisker Ocean. Fisker believes the market will be broken down into three primary consumer segments: the white space segment, the value segment, and the conservative premium segment. See “

Information About Fisker—Sales – Go to Market Strategy

.” Fisker expects to sell approximately 50% of its vehicles within the white space segment, appealing to customers who want to be part of the new EV movement and value sustainability and environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) initiatives. This is supported by a survey of Fisker’s current reservation-holders which found that over 50% currently own

non-premium

branded vehicles and over 50% currently own

non-SUV’s

(i.e. cars, hatchbacks, minivans, etc). Fisker believes that it will be well positioned to be the primary alternative to Tesla in this segment with the Ocean priced around the base price of the Model 3 and Model Y. While Fisker will compete with other EV startups, many of them are moving into the higher luxury priced segments due to the lack of volume pricing of components that Fisker expects to obtain through platform sharing partnerships with industry-leading OEMs

and/or tier-one automotive

suppliers. To expand market share and attract customers from competitors, Fisker must continue to innovate and convert successful research and development efforts into differentiated products, including new EV models.

Fisker is also working to quantify the sustainability advancements and claims that the Fisker brand would produce the most sustainable vehicles in the world, which it believes will be an increasingly important differentiator among a growing subset of consumers. In Fisker’s pursuit of these objectives, it will be in competition with substantially larger and better capitalized vehicle manufacturers. While Fisker believes that

the low-capital-intensity platform

sharing partnership strategy, together

with direct-to-customer commercialization,

provides the Company with an advantage relative to traditional and other established auto manufacturers, Fisker’s better capitalized competitors may seek to undercut the pricing or compete directly with Fisker’s designs by replicating their features. In addition, while Fisker believes that its strong management team forms the necessary backbone to execute on its strategy, the Company expects to compete for talent, as Fisker’s future growth will depend on hiring qualified and experienced personnel to operate all aspects of the business as it prepares to launch commercial operations.

Commercialization

Fisker currently anticipates commencing production of the Fisker Ocean in the fourth quarter of 2022, with initial customer deliveries in late 2022 at the earliest. Production commencement is dependent upon Fisker entering into definitive platform sharing agreements with one or more industry-leading OEMs

and/or tier-one automotive

suppliers. Failure to enter into these agreements timely could result in being unable to begin production in the timeframe anticipated.

As of May 14, 2021, we have received over 14,775 retail reservations and 1,400 fleet reservations. This is after accounting for about 1,300 retail customers who have canceled over time. Fisker has obtained over 64,000 indications of interest through the Flexee app (meaning the Flexee App has been downloaded and the potential purchaser has provided a contact phone number) and internet, reflecting the significant public interest in the Fisker Ocean.

Since we first opened our reservation system for the Ocean, we have offered prospective customers the opportunity to make a reservation with the flexibility to cancel at any time. Our retail reservation system is driven through our app and website, with each vehicle reservation requiring a $250 deposit and limited to one reservation per registered cellphone number. In the event that someone wishes to cancel, there is a 10% charge ($25) to cover third party and administrative costs for processing the refunds in a timely and secure manner. The retail reservations and cancellations are enabled by our mobile and web Fisker Flexee app, and our potential customers make their reservation and cancellation directly on these automated platforms. A second type of reservation are those made by corporations and fleet operators. We devote significant time and resources to our fleet customers, ensuring the Ocean is the right choice for their business and completing an MOU. As we make more details of the Ocean available and our brand profile increases, we would expect both retail and fleet reservations to organically increase. Further, as we get closer to launch, we will be working with our prospective customers to transition their reservation into a contracted order. This would include the detailed vehicle specification (model series, color etc.) and delivery date. We will continue to share our reservation and contracted order data transparently through frequent updates to the market.

Fisker plans to initially market its vehicles through

its direct-to-consumer sales

model, leveraging its proprietary Flexee app, which will serve as

a one-stop-shop for

all components of its EMaaS business model. Over time, Fisker plans to develop Fisker Experience Centers in select cities in North America and Europe, which will enable prospective customers to experience Fisker vehicles through test drives and virtual and augmented reality. Fisker also intends to enter, in each launch market, into third-party service partnerships with credible vehicle service organizations with established service facilities, operations and technicians. These companies’ services will be integrated into and booked via the Flexee app in order to create a

hassle-free, app-based service

experience for Fisker’s customers delivered at home, at work, or with

a pick-up and

delivery service booked online. For North America and United Kingdom, as examples, Fisker has entered into

non-exclusive Memorandum

of Understandings with divisions of Cox Automotive related to fleet management services. Fisker will continue to seek opportunities to build the service partnership model.

Over time, Fisker aims to transform the EV sales model through the flexible lease model, under which customers will be able to utilize a vehicle on

a month-to-month basis

at an anticipated cost of $379 per month for the base model, with the ability to terminate the lease or upgrade their vehicle at any time. Development of a fleet of high value, sustainable EVs will allow Fisker to offer these flexible lease options to capture more customers. Fisker intends to require

a non-refundable up-front payment

of $3,000 under the flexible lease model, which the Company believes will reduce its cash flow risk and incentivize customers to keep their vehicles for a period of time. Fisker anticipates that, over time, it will acquire a substantial fleet of used EVs available for sale or further flexible lease by Fisker, which it believes will enhance its ability to maintain its premium brand and pricing.

Fisker believes its

digital, direct-to-consumer sales

model reflects today’s changing consumer preferences and is less capital intensive and expensive than the traditional automotive sales models. Fisker’s commercialization strategy is, however, relatively novel for the car industry, which has historically relied on extensive advertising and marketing, as well as relationships with physical car dealership networks. Should Fisker’s assumptions about the

Table of Contents

commercialization of its vehicles prove overly optimistic or if the Company is unable to develop, obtain or maintain

the direct-to-consumer marketing

or service technology upon which its prospective customer base would rely, Fisker may incur delays to its ability to commercialize the Fisker Ocean. This may also lead Fisker to make changes in its commercialization plans, which could result in unanticipated marketing delays or cost overruns, which could in turn adversely impact margins and cash flows or require Fisker to change its pricing. Further, to the extent that Fisker doesn’t generate the margins it expects upon commercialization of the Fisker Ocean, Fisker may be required to raise additional debt or equity capital, which may not be available or may only be available on terms that are onerous to Fisker and its stockholders.

Regulatory Landscape

Fisker operates in an industry that is subject to and benefits from environmental regulations, which have generally become more stringent over time, particularly across developed markets. Regulations in Fisker’s target markets include economic incentives to purchasers of EVs, tax credits for EV manufacturers, and economic penalties that may apply to a car manufacturer based on its fleet-wide emissions ratings. See “

Information about Fisker—Government Regulation and Credits

.” For example, a federal tax credit of $7,500 may be available to U.S. purchasers of Fisker vehicles, which would bring the effective estimated purchase price of the base Fisker Ocean model to approximately $30,000. The current U.S. administration has indicated a desire to expand this program. Fisker recently issued a call to action to implement a program called “75 And More For 55 And Less”, which would include a

poin-of-sale

rebate (as opposed to the current tax credit) of $7,500 plus $10 for every mile of

EPA-certified

driving range, for any EV priced at $55,000 and less. Fisker believes this type of program would focus EV purchase support towards consumers that most require an incentive and would also incentivize all OEM’s to focus development efforts on affordable EV’s, as Fisker has done. Further, the registration and sale of Zero Emission Vehicles (“ZEVs”) in California will earn Fisker ZEV credits, which it may be able to sell to other OEMs

or tier-one automotive

suppliers seeking to access the state’s market. Several other U.S. states have adopted similar standards. In the European Union, where European car manufacturers are penalized for excessive fleet-wide emissions on the one hand and incentivized to produce low emission vehicles on the other, Fisker believes it will have the opportunity to monetize the ZEV technology through fleet emissions pooling arrangements with car manufacturers that may not otherwise meet their CO2 emissions targets. While Fisker expects environmental regulations to provide a tailwind to its growth, it is possible for certain regulations to result in margin pressures. For example, regulations that effectively impose EV production quotas on auto manufacturers may lead to an oversupply of EVs, which in turn could promote price decreases. As a pure play EV company, Fisker’s margins could be particularly and adversely impacted by such regulatory developments. Trade restrictions and tariffs, while historically minimal between the European Union and the United States where most of Fisker’s production and sales are expected, are subject to unknown and unpredictable change that could impact Fisker’s ability to meet projected sales or margins.

Basis of Presentation

Fisker currently conducts its business through one operating segment. As a company with no commercial operations and limited revenues derived from merchandise sales, which in not core to our ongoing business, Fisker’s activities to date have been limited and were conducted primarily in the United States and its historical results are reported under U.S. GAAP and in U.S. dollars. Upon commencement of commercial operations, Fisker expects to expand its global operations substantially, including in the USA and the European Union, and as a result Fisker expects its future results to be sensitive to foreign currency transaction and translation risks and other financial risks that are not reflected in its historical financial statements. As a result, Fisker expects that the financial results it reports for periods after it begins commercial operations will not be comparable to the financial results included in this Form

10-Q

or the amended Annual Report on Form

10-K/A.

Components of Results of Operations

Fisker is an early stage company and its historical results may not be indicative of its future results for reasons that may be difficult to anticipate. Accordingly, the drivers of Fisker’s future financial results, as well as the components of such results, may not be comparable to Fisker’s historical or projected results of operations.

Table of Contents

Revenues

Fisker has not begun its primary commercial operations, which will focus on the production and sale of its vehicles. Once Fisker commences production and commercialization of its vehicles, it expects that the significant majority of its revenue will be initially derived from direct sales of Fisker Ocean SUVs and, subsequently, from flexible leases of its vehicles. In 2021, Fisker launched its merchandise “Fisker Edition” where it sells direct to consumers Fisker branded apparel and goods. While merchandise sales are not intended to be significant portion of Fisker’s results once production of vehicles begins, Fisker generated revenue in the first quarter of 2021.

Cost of Goods Sold

To date, Fisker has not recorded cost of goods sold from its vehicle sales, as it has not recorded commercial revenues from the sales of its vehicles. Once Fisker commences the commercial production and sale of its vehicles, it expects cost of goods sold to include mainly vehicle components and parts, including batteries, direct labor costs, amortized tooling costs and capitalized costs associated with the Magna warrants, and reserves for estimated warranty expenses. Related to the 2021 launch of “Fisker Edition” apparel and goods, Fisker realized cost of goods sold in the first quarter of 2021.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expenses consist mainly of personnel-related expenses for Fisker’s executive and other administrative functions and expenses for outside professional services, including legal, accounting and other advisory services.

Fisker is rapidly expanding its personnel headcount, in anticipation of the start of production of its vehicles. Accordingly, Fisker expects its general and administrative expenses to increase significantly in the near term and for the foreseeable future. For example, the company expects general and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation expenses, in the year ended December 31, 2021 to be in the range of

$30-$40 million

as compared to $22.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon commencement of commercial operations, Fisker also expects general and administrative expenses to include facilities, marketing and advertising costs.

Research and Development Expense

To date, Fisker’s research and development expenses have consisted primarily of external engineering services in connection with the design of the Fisker Ocean model and development of the first prototype. As Fisker ramps up for commercial operations, it anticipates that research and development expenses will increase for the foreseeable future as the Company expands its hiring of engineers and designers and continues to invest in new vehicle model design and development of technology. For example, the company expects research and development expenses, excluding stock-based compensation expenses, in the year ended December 31, 2021 to be in the range of $210 - $230 million as compared to $21.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2020.

Income Taxes

Fisker’s income tax provision consists of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes based on enacted rates, as adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in the tax law. Fisker maintains a valuation allowance against the full value of its U.S. and state net deferred tax assets because Fisker believes the recoverability of the tax assets is not more likely than not.

Revenue and cost of goods sold

During the three-months ended March 31, 2021, Fisker launched its merchandise “Fisker Edition” where it sells direct to consumers Fisker branded apparel and goods. Sales of branded apparel and goods totaled $22,000 with related costs of goods sold of $17,000 resulting in a gross margin of $5,000 during the three-month period. Merchandise sales are ancillary revenues that will continue in the future but are not expected to constitute a significant portion of operations once Fisker commences production and commercialization of its vehicles.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $5.4 million from $0.4 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2020 to $5.8 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to increased salaried employee headcount and the Company electing to offer covered medical benefits to all employees to align with our human capital and ESG goals and to offer competitive compensation packages to potential employees, which increased general and administrative expenses by $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2021. General and administrative expenses includes stock-based compensation expense of $174,000 and $8,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Overall, total headcount for the Company increased to 203 employees as of May 17, 2021, compared to 170 employees on March 31, 2021, 101 employees as of December 31, 2020, and 81 employees as of October 29, 2020, the date of the closing of our reverse merger.

Table of Contents

On March 18, 2021, the Board of Directors of Fisker, approved, effective as of March 15, 2021, at the request of Dr. Geeta Gupta, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, an 82% decrease in Dr. Gupta’s annual base salary from $325,000 to $58,240 which is California’s minimum annual wage.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $26.9 million from $0.4 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2020 to $27.3 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021. The increase primarily relates to an increase in headcount of full-time employees as of March 31, 2021, and payments to suppliers indicating progress on serial design and development of unique components. Research and development expenses includes stock-based compensation expense of $643,000 and $10,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Interest Expense

The Company did not have interest expense during the three-months ended March 31, 2021 as it did not have debt during the three-month period then ended. Interest expense was $0.2 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020, the embedded derivative related to Fisker’s convertible bridge notes, which was issued in July 2020, and converted into Class A common shares at the close of the Business Combination.

Foreign Currency Gain (Loss)

Fisker recorded foreign currency gains of $1.3 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $22,000 during the three-months ended March 31, 2020 due to weakening Euro currency rates which resulted in favorable currency gains upon settlement of our Euro-denominated liabilities in the first quarter of 2021. For the remainder of 2021, Fisker expects its EUR denominated transactions associated with our foreign operations and services provided by suppliers will increase significantly and will subject Fisker to greater fluctuation in realized gain and losses from foreign currencies.

Net Loss

Net loss was $176.8 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $175.7 million from a net loss of $1.1 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2020, for the reasons discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of the date of this Form

10-Q,

Fisker has yet to generate any revenue from its core business operations. To date, Fisker has funded its capital expenditures and working capital requirements through equity and convertible notes, as further discussed below. Fisker’s ability to successfully commence it primary commercial operations and expand its business will depend on many factors, including its working capital needs, the availability of equity or debt financing and, over time, its ability to generate cash flows from operations.

As of March 31 2021, Fisker’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $985 million and no debt outstanding.

Fisker expects its capital expenditures and working capital requirements to increase substantially in 2021, as it progresses toward production of the Fisker Ocean EV model, develop its customer support and marketing infrastructure and expand its research and development efforts. For example, Fisker expects cash usage to fund capital expenditures and other investing activities to be in the range of $210 million to $240 million in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $677,000 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Fisker believes that its cash on hand following the consummation of the Business Combination will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this Form

10-Q

and sufficient to fund its operations until it commences production of the Fisker Ocean. Fisker may, however, need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated delays in negotiations with OEMs

and tier-one automotive

suppliers or other suppliers, supply chain challenges, disruptions due

to COVID-19, competitive

pressures, and regulatory developments, among other developments such as the collaboration on “Project PEAR” (Personal Electric Automotive Revolution) with Hon Hai Technology Group announced on February 24, 2021. To the extent that Fisker’s current resources are insufficient to satisfy its cash requirements, Fisker may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than Fisker expects, Fisker may be forced to decrease its level of investment in product development or scale back its operations, which could have an adverse impact on its business and financial prospects.

Cash Flows

The following table provides a summary of Fisker’s cash flow data for the periods indicated:


	Three-Months Ended March 31,
	2021			2020
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities		(28,810	)		260
Net cash used in investing activities		(65,665	)		—
Net cash provided by financing activities		88,739			145

Cash Flows used in Operating Activities

Fisker’s cash flows used in operating activities to date have been primarily comprised of costs related to research and development, payroll and other general and administrative activities. As Fisker continues to accelerate hiring in line with development and production of the Ocean, Fisker expects its cash used in operating activities to increase significantly before it starts to generate any material cash flows from its business. Operating lease commitments at March 31, 2021 will result in cash payments of $0.5 million in 2021 and $2.2 million after 2021. Fisker’s new headquarters, Inception, located in Manhattan Beach, California, will commence in the second quarter of 2021 resulting incremental operating lease commitments of $1.2 million for the remainder of 2021, $3.8 million for 2022, and $15.9 million for 2023 and thereafter. It is expected that Fisker will execute a new lease in Europe and at least one new lease for a U.S.-based experience center. In total, Fisker is projecting to use cash in excess of $210 million for combined SG&A and R&D activities during 2021.

Net cash used in operating activities was $28.8 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $29.1 million from $0.3 million net cash provided by operating activities during the three-months ended March 31, 2020.

Cash Flows used in Investing Activities

Fisker’s cash flows from investing activities, historically, have been comprised mainly of purchases of property and equipment. During the three-months ended March 31, 2021, the Company acquired intangible assets related to development of the Fisker Ocean and production of its parts that totaled $64.3 million and capitalized certain expenditures associated with R&D capital assets that benefit our vehicle program development in future periods. Fisker expects to incur incremental significant expenditures in the remainder of 2021 for manufacturing and development, testing and validation, tooling, manufacturing equipment, software licenses, and IT infrastructure are anticipated to be between $210 million and $240 million of which we expect at least 50% is denominated in foreign currencies, subject to changes as we finalize our supplier selections in 2021.

Fisker used cash of $65.7 million for investing activities during the three-months ended March 31, 2021 compared no cash expenditures for investing activities during the corresponding three-month period ended March 31, 2020.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Through March 31, 2021, Fisker has financed its operations primarily through the sale of equity securities, and, to a lesser extent, convertible notes.

Net cash from financing activities was $88.7 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2021, reflecting the proceeds of $88.6 million from public warrant holders who exercised 7,733,400 warrants to acquire a corresponding equal number of Class A common stock. Net cash from financing activities was $0.1 million during the three-months ended Mach 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP

Financial Measure

The accompanying table references

non-GAAP

adjusted loss from operations. This

non-GAAP

financial measure differs from the directly comparable GAAP financial measure due to adjustments made to exclude stock-based compensation expense. This

non-GAAP

financial measure is not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative to any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that presenting this

non-GAAP

financial measure provides useful supplemental information to investors about the Company in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by its management in financial and operational-decision making. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of a

non-GAAP

measure and its nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate

non-GAAP

measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore any

non-GAAP

measures the Company uses may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Therefore, both GAAP financial measures of Fisker’s financial performance and the respective

non-GAAP

measures should be considered together. Please see the reconciliation of

non-GAAP

financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in the tables below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Fisker’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the preparation of these financial statements, Fisker is required to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Fisker considers an accounting judgment, estimate or assumption to be critical when (1) the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and (2) the use of different judgments, estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to Part II, Item 7, Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our amended Annual Report on Form

10-K/A

for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates since our amended Annual Report on Form

10-K/A

for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Emerging Growth Company Status

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply

to non-emerging growth

companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable.

Table of Contents

Fisker is an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and has elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period for new or revised financial accounting standards. Fisker expects to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period, although it may decide to early adopt such new or revised accounting standards to the extent permitted by such standards. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare Fisker’s financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Fisker has not, to date, been exposed to material market risks given its early stage of operations. Upon commencing commercial operations, Fisker expects to be exposed to foreign currency translation and transaction risks and potentially other market risks, including those related to interest rates or valuation of financial instruments, among others.

Foreign Currency Risk

Fisker’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar, while certain of Fisker’s current and future subsidiaries are expected to have functional currencies in Euro, British pound sterling, and Chinese Yuan Renminbi reflecting their principal operating markets. Once Fisker commences commercial operations, it expects to be exposed to both currency transaction and translation risk. For example, Fisker expects its contracts with

OEMs and/or tier-one automotive

suppliers to be transacted in Euro or other foreign currencies. In addition, Fisker expects that certain of its subsidiaries will have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar, meaning that such subsidiaries’ results of operations will be periodically translated into U.S. dollars in Fisker’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which may result in revenue and earnings volatility from period to period in response to exchange rates fluctuations. To date, Fisker has not had material exposure to foreign currency fluctuations and has not hedged such exposure, although it may do so in the future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required under

Rules 13a-15(e)

and 15d-15(e)

under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2021 due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.

As of March 31, 2021, we have not experienced any significant impact to our internal control over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees who are involved in our financial reporting processes and controls are working remotely due to

the COVID-19

pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing

the COVID-19

situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management has concluded that there was a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 as a result of a control related to the evaluation of accounting for complex transactions with potential derivative accounting implications that did not operate effectively in the instance of evaluating potential tender offer scenarios and valuation models associated with the repricing of warrant instruments. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. This material weakness resulted in the Restatement of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020. We are taking actions to remediate the material weakness relating to our internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

For a description of our material pending legal proceedings, please see Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on

Form 10-Q.

From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, negative publicity and reputational harm and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the information set forth below and other information contained elsewhere in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A.

Risk Factors

in our most recent amended Annual Report filed on Form

10-K/A,

which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.

We face risks related to health epidemics, including the

recent COVID-19

pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We face various risks related to public health issues, including epidemics, pandemics, and other outbreaks, including the recent pandemic of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known

as COVID-19.

The impact

of COVID-19,

including changes in consumer and business behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatility in the global economy and led to reduced economic activity. The spread

of COVID-19

has also created a disruption in the manufacturing, delivery and overall supply chain of vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, and has led to a global decrease in vehicle sales in markets around the world.

The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions,

quarantines, stay-at-home

or shelter-in-place orders,

and business shutdowns. These measures may adversely impact our employees and operations and the operations of its customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners, and may negatively impact our sales and marketing activities. In addition, various aspects of our business cannot be conducted remotely. These measures by government authorities may remain in place for a significant period of time and they are likely to continue to adversely affect our manufacturing plans, sales and marketing activities, business and results of operations.

The spread

of COVID-19

has caused us to modify our business practices (including employee travel, recommending that

all non-essential

personnel work from home and cancellation or reduction of physical participation in sales activities, meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine is in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners. There is no certainty that such actions will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. If significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including due to illness, quarantines, social distancing, government actions or other restrictions in connection with

the COVID-19

pandemic, our operations will be impacted.

The extent to which

the COVID-19

pandemic impacts our business, prospects and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating activities can resume. Even after

the COVID-19

pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience an adverse impact to its business as a result of its global economic impact, including any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

Table of Contents

Specifically, difficult macroeconomic conditions, such as decreases in per capita income and level of disposable income, increased and prolonged unemployment, or a decline in consumer confidence as a result of

the COVID-19

pandemic could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our vehicles. Under difficult economic conditions, potential customers may seek to reduce spending by forgoing our vehicles for other traditional options or may choose to keep their existing vehicles and cancel reservations.

There are no comparable recent events that may provide guidance as to the effect of the spread

of COVID-19

and a pandemic, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of

the COVID-19

pandemic or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain.

Failure to build our finance infrastructure and improve our accounting systems and controls could impair our ability to comply with the financial reporting and internal controls requirements for publicly traded companies.

As a public company, we will operate in an increasingly demanding regulatory environment, which requires us to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), the regulations of the NYSE, the rules and regulations of the SEC, expanded disclosure requirements, accelerated reporting requirements and more complex accounting rules. Company responsibilities required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act include establishing corporate oversight and adequate internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. Commencing with our fiscal year ending the year after the Business Combination is completed, we must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in

our Form 10-K

filing for that year, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We have never been required to test our internal controls within a specified period and, as a result, we may experience difficulty in meeting these reporting requirements in a timely manner.

On May 6, 2021, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors concluded that the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed on March 31, 2021 should be restated to reflect the impact of this guidance by the SEC and accordingly, should no longer be relied upon. In connection with the restatement, the Company’s management reassessed the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures for the periods affected by the restatement. As a result of that reassessment, the Company’s management determined that its disclosure controls and procedures for such periods were not effective. This restatement of our financials has also resulted in a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

We anticipate that the process of building our accounting and financial functions and infrastructure will require significant additional professional fees, internal costs and management efforts. We expect that we will need to implement a new internal system to combine and streamline the management of our financial, accounting, human resources and other functions. However, such a system would likely require us to complete many processes and procedures for the effective use of the system or to run our business using the system, which may result in substantial costs. Any disruptions or difficulties in implementing or using such a system could adversely affect our controls and harm our business. Moreover, such disruption or difficulties could result in unanticipated costs and diversion of management’s attention. In addition, we may discover weaknesses in our system of internal financial and accounting controls and procedures that could result in a material misstatement of our financial statements. Our internal control over financial reporting will not prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud will be detected.

If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner, or if we are unable to maintain proper and effective internal controls, we may not be able to produce timely and accurate financial statements. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and results of operations could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the NYSE, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

Table of Contents

Future sales of shares by existing stockholders and future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock and may make it more difficult for you to sell your shares of our Class A Common Stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate. All outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock previously held by

the pre-Business

Combination public stockholders at the completion of the Merger and a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock issued as merger consideration in the Merger are freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act, except for any shares of our Class A Common Stock that may be held or acquired by our directors, executive officers and other affiliates, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, which are subject to restrictions under the Securities Act.

In connection with the completion of the Merger, we entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with our Former Sponsor, Spartan Energy Acquisition Sponsor LLC, Magna, Henrik Fisker, Dr. Geeta Gupta and certain former stockholders of Legacy Fisker, pursuant to which we agreed to register for resale and granted certain other registration rights with respect to certain shares of Class A Common Stock held by our Former Sponsor, Magna, Henrik Fisker and Dr Geeta Gupta and their respective permitted transferees, in addition to the warrants originally issued in a private placement to our Former Sponsor in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and the up to 9.36 million shares of our Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants. We also registered for resale the 50 million shares of our Class A Common Stock (the “PIPE shares”) issued in a private placement that closed immediately prior to the Merger and the 18.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of our publicly held warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock. In accordance with the foregoing, we filed a registration statement on

Form S-1

under the Securities Act, which registration statement was declared effective on December 9, 2020, to register the resale of up to 133.78 million shares of our Class A Common Stock, including 50 million PIPE shares and 18.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of our outstanding publicly held warrants. Shares of Class A Common Stock sold under such registration statement can be freely sold in the public market. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A Common Stock.

We have also filed a registration statement

on Form S-8

under the Securities Act to register shares of our Class A Common Stock that may be issued under our equity incentive plans from time to time, as well as any shares of our Class A Common Stock underlying outstanding options and restricted stock units that have been granted to our directors, executive officers and other employees, all of which are subject to time-vesting conditions. Shares registered under this registration statement will be available for sale in the public market upon issuance subject to vesting arrangements and exercise of options, as well as Rule 144 in the case of our affiliates.

We are unable to predict the effect that these sales, particularly sales by our directors, executive officers and significant stockholders, may have on the prevailing market price of our Class A Common Stock. If holders of these shares sell, or indicate an intent to sell, substantial amounts of our Class A Common Stock in the public market, the trading price of our Class A Common Stock could decline significantly and make it difficult for us to raise funds through securities offerings in the future.

The issuance of shares of our Class A Common Stock upon exercise of our outstanding Magna Warrants would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our stockholders.

As of May 10, 2021, the Magna Warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 6,484,993 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were outstanding and exercisable. The exercise price of these warrants are $0.01 per share. To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to holders of our Class A Common Stock and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market or the fact that such warrants may be exercised could adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock.
