LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EVgo Inc. (Nasdaq: EVGO) ("EVgo" or the "Company") today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024. Management will host a conference call today at 8 a.m. ET / 5 a.m. PT to discuss EVgo's results and other business highlights.
Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 reached $67.5 million, compared to $35.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, representing 92% year-over-year growth. Revenue growth was driven by year-over-year increases in charging network and eXtend revenues.
Network throughput increased to 78 GWh in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 37 GWh in the third quarter of 2023, representing 111% year-over-year growth. The Company added more than 147,000 new customer accounts during the third quarter of 2024, a 39% year-over-year increase in new accounts. The overall number of customer accounts was more than 1.2 million at quarter end, an increase of 57% year-over-year.
"I'm pleased to report another record quarter anchored by strong revenues and triple digit year-over-year network throughput growth," said Badar Khan, EVgo's CEO. "Our deployment team continued to meet demand head-on bringing a record number of stalls online in the third quarter. With our conditional commitment from DOE for a loan guarantee of up to $1.05 billion announced last month, EVgo is poised to lead the industry as the charging provider of choice. As we look ahead to the end of the year and into fiscal 2025, we are working diligently to complete the loan process, drive our next phase of growth as an owner and operator of fast charging infrastructure, and deliver continued and sustainable value creation for our shareholders."
Business Highlights
- DOE Conditional Commitment: On October 3, 2024, EVgo received conditional commitment for a loan guarantee of up to $1.05 billion from the U.S. Department of Energy Loan Programs Office ("DOE LPO") under its Title 17 program, to build approximately 7,500 fast charging stalls across the U.S. The loan is expected to support the Company in its efforts to double its deployment rate of critical charging infrastructure in high-growth markets and enable the expansion of EV charging access in rural and lower income communities. The Company is working towards satisfying certain technical, legal, environmental and financial conditions to enter into a definitive agreement with the DOE.
- Co-Development Agreement for Next Generation Charging Architecture: EVgo and Delta Electronics signed a memorandum of understanding in October 2024 to co-develop the next generation of chargers to improve customer experience, enhance charger reliability, and drive cost efficiencies with advanced firmware and hardware design.
- 30C Income Tax Credits: EVgo sold its 2023 portfolio of 30C income tax credits for $11.0 million, before estimated transaction costs of $2.0 million, most of which is expected to be incurred in the fourth quarter.
- California Low Carbon Fuel Standard ("LCFS"): On November 8, 2024, the California Air Resources Board voted to adopt amendments to the LCFS, which are expected to strengthen regulatory credit values for years to come.
- Stall Development: The Company ended the quarter with approximately 3,680 stalls in operation, including EVgo eXtend stalls. EVgo added over 270 new DC fast charging stalls during the quarter, including EVgo eXtend stalls.
- Average Daily Network Throughput: Average daily throughput per stall for the EVgo network was 254 kilowatt hours per day in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 64% compared to 155 kilowatt hours per day in the third quarter of 2023.
- EVgo Autocharge+: Autocharge+ was 21% of total charging sessions initiated in the third quarter of 2024, and the number of Autocharge+ charging sessions in the third quarter increased 132% compared to the third quarter of 2023.
- PlugShare: PlugShare reached 5.7 million registered users and achieved 8.8 million check-ins since inception.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement EVgo's financial information, which is prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, EVgo uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. EVgo uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. EVgo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of EVgo's recurring core business operating results.
EVgo believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing EVgo's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical performance. EVgo believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by EVgo's institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of EVgo's business.
For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, please see the sections titled "Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes some, but not all of the following non-GAAP financial measures, in each case as defined below: "Charging Network Margin," "Adjusted Cost of Sales," "Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue," "Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss)," "Adjusted Gross Margin," "Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses," "Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue," "EBITDA," "EBITDA Margin," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA Margin," and "Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets." With respect to Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets, pursuant to the terms of certain OEM contracts, EVgo is paid well in advance of when revenue can be recognized, and usually, the payment is tied to the number of stalls that commence operations under the applicable contractual arrangement while the related revenue is deferred at the time of payment and is recognized as revenue over time as EVgo provides charging and other services to the OEM and the OEM's customers. EVgo management therefore uses these measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets, and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, including the cash used for, and the return on, its investment in its charging infrastructure. EVgo believes that these measures are useful to investors in evaluating EVgo's performance and help to depict a meaningful representation of the performance of the underlying business, enabling EVgo to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future.
Charging Network Margin, Adjusted Cost of Sales, Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under GAAP and the items excluded from or included in these metrics are significant components in understanding and assessing EVgo's financial performance. These metrics should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
EVgo defines Charging Network Margin as total charging network revenue less charging network cost of sales divided by total charging network revenue. EVgo defines Adjusted Cost of Sales as cost of sales before (i) depreciation, net of capital-build amortization, and (ii) share-based compensation. EVgo defines Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percentage of Revenue as Adjusted Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as revenue less Adjusted Cost of Sales. EVgo defines Adjusted Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as general and administrative expenses before (i) share-based compensation, (ii) loss on disposal of property and equipment, net of insurance recoveries, and impairment expense, (iii) bad debt expense (recoveries), and (iv) certain other items that management believes are not indicative of EVgo's ongoing performance. EVgo defines Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue as Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before (i) depreciation, net of capital-build amortization, (ii) amortization, (iii) accretion, (iv) interest income, (v) interest expense, and (vi) income tax expense (benefit). EVgo defines EBITDA Margin as EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) share-based compensation, (ii) loss on disposal of property and equipment, net of insurance recoveries, and impairment expense, (iii) loss (gain) on investments, (iv) bad debt expense (recoveries), (v) change in fair value of earnout liability, (vi) change in fair value of warrant liabilities, and (vii) certain other items that management believes are not indicative of EVgo's ongoing performance. EVgo defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. EVgo defines Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets as capital expenditures adjusted for the following capital offsets: (i) all payments under OEM infrastructure agreements excluding any amounts directly attributable to OEM customer charging credit programs and pass-through of non-capital expense reimbursements, (ii) proceeds from capital-build funding and (iii) proceeds from the transfer of 30C income tax credits, net of transaction costs. The tables below present quantitative reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures as described in this paragraph.
