Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” or “Kandi”) (NASDAQ GS: KNDI), today announced its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2023.

Full Year 2023 Highlights

  • Total net revenues increased by 4.9% to $123.6 million, from $117.8 million in 2022.
  • As the primary driver of total revenue, off-road vehicles and associated parts sales increased by 51.5% to $107.0 million from $70.6 million in 2022.
  • Gross profit increased by 112% to $41.4 million, from $19.5 million in 2022.
  • Net income was $1.7 million, or $0.02 income per fully diluted share, compared to a net loss of $12.9 million, or $0.17 loss per fully diluted share for 2022.
  • The Company has a strong working capital position. Cash and equivalents, restricted cash, certificate of deposit and notes receivable totaled $252.1 million as of December 31, 2023.

Dr. Xueqin Dong, CEO of Kandi commented, “We concluded the challenging year of 2023, and it's with great pride that we overcame the challenges in 2023 and made significant strides. In particular, the off-road EVs and related parts sector were the main driver of our record-high revenue over the past three years. In 2023, we developed and launched models such as the all-electric UTV and electric mini golf carts. We acquired Northern Group to expand our sales channels. Moreover, we further strengthened our partnership with Lowe’s, expanding to more than 10 super centers in 2024, thereby broadening our market coverage in North America. We're proud to return to profitability in 2023, marking an important milestone in our development journey.”

Dr. Dong concluded, “As we move into 2024, we will increase our R&D investment and launch more competitive all-electric off-road vehicle products, demonstrating our confidence in the future development of the company and our commitment to delivering shareholder value. We are poised to capture the burgeoning demand for fuel-to-electric conversion in off-road vehicles. Building on this confidence, we expect significant growth in 2024, aiming to increase the value we offer to our customers and shareholders.”

Gross Margin% 33.5%  16.6% - 

In 2023, our net revenues rose to $123.6 million, an approximate 5% increase from 2022, driven by stronger sales of off-road vehicles, notably the gross profit of our new crossover golf carts sold in the U.S. surged 112% to $41.4 million, with gross margin doubling from 16.6% to 33.5%, reflecting a profitable shift in product mix towards higher-margin off-road vehicles.

Operating expenses climbed to $54.4 million from $47.2 million, driven by higher spending on sales and marketing for our higher volume of production exportation to U.S. The operational loss narrowed to $13.1 million, marking an improvement from 2022, primarily attributed to a higher concentration of sales from off-road vehicles with larger gross margin.
