CYN

• Made significant progress in commercialization, including partnerships with Motrec and Arauco, and announcements of deployments and pre-orders.
• Launched DriveMod stock chaser solutions and secured a pre-order of 100 DriveMod enabled Autonomous Forklifts from Arauco.
• Brought on new leaders in engineering and engineering services, Sean Stetson and Felix Singh, who have impacted development progress and customer offering.
• Highlighted the addressable market for self-driving industrial vehicles as over $200 billion and the company's vehicle agnostic solutions are positioned to penetrate this market.

• Anticipates achieving profitability through license sales of its Enterprise Autonomy Suite (EAS), with 500 EAS licenses at $4,000 a month potentially leading to cash flow breakeven.
• Notes the pre-order from Arauco represents a significant opportunity and expects further commercial success in the second half of the year and beyond.

In the second quarter, Cyngn generated $551,000 in revenue. Substantially all revenue came from non-recurring engineering contracts with Arauco and a global heavy industrial equipment OEM for developing autonomous vehicles. Total costs and expenses in the second quarter were $7 million, with research and development expenses increasing due to added personnel, and general and administrative expenses also higher year-over-year.

• Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from projections, including risks detailed in SEC filings related to investing in Cyngn.
• Uncertainties in executing commercialization plans for products and achieving expected growth and profitability.

Q: About the cost and number of sensors needed for autonomous EVs vs. factory operations, how does Cyngn compare?

A: Operating in factories at lower speeds and around trained personnel means less sensors and computing required, still offering substantial cost savings to customers compared to human-operated vehicles.

Q: Regarding the Arauco announcement, is the math about cash burn right and how is the build plan for 100 units?

A: Math is roughly right; the build plan involves working closely with partners and supply chain to ramp up, with the initial order being a portion of the total opportunity and room for growth beyond that.

Q: What's driving the recent flurry of press releases and contract signings?

A: Growth of the team, including engineering and sales leadership, recognition of the industrial automation market opportunity, and inbound interest from prospective customers.

Q: Updated thoughts on the mining industry opportunity?

A: Main focus remains material handling for logistics and manufacturing, with mining applications in R&D phase contributing to rebased revenue, and sales team focused on lining up preorders like Arauco's.
