LiveWire Group, Inc. (“LiveWire” or the “Company”) (NYSE: LVWR) today reported second quarter 2025 results.

“During the second quarter, we continued our focus on what can be controlled, reducing consolidated operating loss by 35 percent compared to the prior-year same quarter. Despite continued supply chain challenges driven by the overall economic market, STACYC delivered a 25 percent increase in revenue compared to the prior-year same quarter. While Electric Motorcycle revenue decreased compared to the prior-year same quarter in the challenging EV market, we remained the #1 electric motorcycle retailer in the US 50+ horsepower on road EV segment¹. We are thrilled with the positive feedback we have received on the two prototype models that were on display at the Harley-Davidson Homecoming and look forward to sharing additional details on these lower-priced, smaller models in the upcoming weeks and months,” said Karim Donnez, CEO, LiveWire.

Second Quarter Highlights and Financial Results

• Consolidated operating loss decreased by $9.9 million from same quarter 2024 primarily driven by a decrease in consolidated selling, administrative and engineering expense.
• Reduced consolidated selling, administrative and engineering expense by $7.6 million from same quarter 2024 due to initiatives taken in the later half of 2024 to streamline headcount and reduce other costs.
• Reduced net cash used during the first half of 2025 by $19.8 million or 36%, versus the same period in 2024.
• Entered Norway as a new market and continued to contract with additional dealers in existing markets in Europe.

Total Company Highlights

The Company’s consolidated net loss was $18.8 million for the second quarter 2025 as compared to $24.8 million in the same period prior year driven by the segment results noted below, offset by a decrease of $2.7 million of non-operating income related to the change in fair value of the outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2025 and a decrease of $1.3 million in interest income as compared to prior year.

LiveWire Group, Inc. is comprised of two business segments:

• Electric Motorcycles – focused on the sale of electric motorcycles and related products
• STACYC – focused on the sale of electric balance bikes for kids, electric bikes, and related products

STACYC

Despite continued supply chain issues resulting in delays in product availability, STACYC revenue increased in the second quarter of 2025 compared to 2024 by $1.0 million primarily driven by higher volumes. Selling, administrative, and engineering expenses decreased by $0.6 million primarily driven by a reduction in advertising and marketing spend.

Electric Motorcycles

Electric Motorcycles revenue decreased in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year due to lower unit sales and product mix. Operating loss decreased by $8.8 million primarily driven by a $7.0 million reduction in selling, administrative and engineering expense from cost reduction activities taken in 2024, including decreases in people costs, other spending and the relocation of LiveWire Labs to Milwaukee, Wisconsin compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

Financial guidance

Due to ongoing market volatility and evolving macroeconomic conditions, the current level of uncertainty limits our ability to provide updated units projections with the necessary level of precision and reliability, therefore, we have chosen not to provide units guidance at this time. Additionally, due to ongoing negotiations related to a proposed project work statement under the Joint Development Agreement with Harley-Davidson, Inc., we are updating our previously issued guidance related to Operating Loss to $59-$69 million.

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release and are subject to a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including the risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in prior public filings titled “Risk Factors.” These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks, including, without limitation, the following: our history of losses and expectation to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future; Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“H-D”) making decisions for its overall benefit that could negatively impact our overall business; our relationship with H-D and its impact on our other business relationships; our limited operating history, the rollout of our business and the timing of expected business milestones, including our ability to develop and manufacture electric vehicles of sufficient quality and appeal to customers on schedule and on a large scale; our financial and business performance, including financial projections and business metrics and any underlying assumptions thereunder; our ability to obtain funding for our operations and manage costs; our future capital requirements and sources and uses of cash; changes in our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans, including our ability to effectively execute the Company’s relocation and streamlined headcount plan within expected costs and time and our ability to realize the expected savings on an ongoing annual basis; our ability to manage and predict the impact that new or adjusted tariffs may have on the Company's ability to sell products domestically and internationally, and the cost of raw materials and components, including tariffs recently imposed or that may be imposed by the U.S. on foreign goods or other tariffs recently imposed or that may be imposed by foreign countries on U.S. goods; retail partners being unwilling to participate in our go-to-market business model or their inability to establish or maintain relationships with customers for our electric vehicles; our ability to attract and retain a large number of customers; challenges we face as a pioneer into the highly-competitive and rapidly evolving electric vehicle industry; our operational and financial risks if we fail to effectively and appropriately separate the LiveWire business from the H-D business; our ability to leverage contract manufacturers, including H-D and Kwang Yang Motor Co., Ltd., a Taiwanese company (“KYMCO”), to contract manufacture our electric vehicles; potential delays in the design, manufacture, financing, regulatory approval, launch and delivery of our electric vehicles; building out our supply chain, including our dependency on our existing suppliers and our ability to source suppliers, in each case many of which are single-sourced or limited-source suppliers, for our critical components such as batteries and semiconductor chips; our ability to rely on third-party and public charging networks; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our business, expansion plans and opportunities, including our ability to scale our operations and manage our future growth effectively; the effects on our future business of competition, the pace and depth of electric vehicle adoption generally and our ability to achieve planned competitive advantages with respect to our electric vehicles and products, including with respect to reliability, safety and efficiency; our business and H-D’s business overlapping and being perceived as competitors; our inability to maintain a strong relationship with H-D or to resolve favorably any disputes that may arise between us and H-D; our dependency on H-D for a number of services, including services relating to quality and safety testing. If those service arrangements terminate, it may require significant investment for us to build our own safety and testing facilities, or we may be required to obtain such services from another third-party at increased costs; any decision by us to electrify H-D products, or the products of any other company; our expectations regarding our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others; potential harm caused by misappropriation of our data and compromises in cybersecurity; changes in laws, regulatory requirements, governmental incentives and fuel and energy prices; the impact of health epidemics on our business, the other risks we face and the actions we may take in response thereto; litigation, regulatory proceedings, complaints, product liability claims and/or adverse publicity; and the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive factors.
