ECARX entered into a securities purchase agreement with ATW Partners to issue convertible notes with a principal amount of up to $150 million. The notes provide flexible capital that can be converted into equity if market conditions are favorable.
The financing increases ECARX’s liquidity from its $99.2 million cash balance as of June 30 2025 to a potential $249.2 million in available funds. The company plans to use the proceeds to accelerate development of its Antora and Cloudpeak platforms, expand its global manufacturing footprint, and invest in software‑defined vehicle technologies.
ECARX reported a net loss of $43 million and a gross margin of 11% in Q2 2025, reflecting ongoing financial challenges and pricing pressures in the automotive technology sector. The current ratio of 0.53 indicates short‑term obligations exceed liquid assets, underscoring the importance of the new financing.
Management highlighted that the convertible notes offer flexibility, allowing conversion into equity if market conditions are favorable, and signal investor confidence in ECARX’s long‑term strategy. The company serves major automakers including Volkswagen Group, Volvo, and Geely, and has secured contract wins with a lifetime revenue of over $1 billion.
The financing aligns with ECARX’s strategy to accelerate global expansion and support its roadmap for 2025, positioning the company to compete in the highly competitive software‑defined vehicle market.
