Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, recently shared a weekly business update from YT Jia, Founder and Global CEO of FF.
“Welcome to our Weekly Report Issue 70. Let me start with a major breakthrough for FF’s robotics business in the Middle East.
On August 28, FF officially launched its robotics business in the Middle East and completed the sale and delivery of our first order in the region. We delivered six robots in total—two humanoid robots and four quadruped robots. This marks FF EAI Robotics’ breakthrough from zero to one in the Middle East. At the same time, our team is working hard to bring more orders to the market.
This first delivery in the Middle East brings three important areas of value to FF.
Strategically, it fills an important gap in FF’s global footprint and gives us a strategic foothold in the Middle East to reach more surrounding markets.
From a business perspective, the Middle East has strong purchasing power and a large number of high-net-worth customers. This will greatly support our product sales and accelerate the global deployment of our ‘Four-Core Full-Stack AI’ ecosystem.
From a capital perspective, the Middle East is also a major global hub for investment in AI and EAI. This will create more opportunities for FF to expand capital partnerships and secure industry financing.
As our next step, we plan to hold FF EAI Robotics’ first launch event in the Middle East at the end of September. By leveraging our brand strength, first-mover momentum, and ‘Four-Core Full-Stack AI’ ecosystem, we will accelerate our expansion in the Middle East.
Next, let me share some of the initial results from our August 26 event.
On August 26, FF held Part One of our ‘Built in USA, Benefit the World,’ Launch Event and Global Business Partner Conference. At the event, we launched the ‘EAI Robotics Made in USA’ Global Industry Alliance Initiative and outlined the three-phase roadmap for our Acceleration Program. We also announced the ‘Built in USA’ plans for two new products—the full-size humanoid Next Futurist and the quadruped Next Aegis—and officially launched FF Par distributor recruitment.
The event has already brought positive progress in distributor expansion, sales conversion, and government relations.
On the FF Par front, many key North American distributors joined us at the event. Based on our initial estimate, these distributors collectively cover more than half of the existing robotics market and sales channels in North America. This will provide strong channel support for our sales ramp-up in Q3 and beyond. Andrew Stokes, President of MOSO Robotics, a leading North American distributor and our newest FF Par partner, said that MOSO will combine its sales and service network across all 50 states with FF’s capabilities to jointly build a nationwide robotics solutions platform and sales network.
Potential new robotics distribution partners from EAI-related industries, including the automotive and drone sectors, also attended the event and expressed strong interest in working with us. This shows that the technology and resources FF has built over the past 12 years in the EAI EV sector are now being rapidly transferred into robotics and the broader EAI business. These accumulated strengths are beginning to create momentum across different products and industries, while opening up new entry points into the EAI market and new growth opportunities for our partners.
The event has also generated strong sales momentum. Within just two days after the launch event and private product previews, we received nearly 50 new orders. We will share the complete sales and shipment figures for August in next week’s weekly report. We also received positive feedback from major B2B customers, along with purchase intentions for multiple orders.
We also made encouraging progress in BD and government affairs. Representatives from government agencies, school districts, and public procurement systems in El Segundo and San Bernardino expressed their recognition and support for our ‘Built in USA’ strategy and the ‘EAI Robotics Made in USA’ Global Industry Alliance Initiative. Steven Newton, a senior advisor to the U.S. General Services Administration and a member of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s procurement committee, said in his remarks that he believes FF can rapidly transfer the capabilities we have built over the past 12 years—in EAI technology, R&D, manufacturing, quality, compliance, and global supply chain—to the robotics industry. He also said that FF has the potential to become an important technology and ecosystem bridge connecting the U.S. with global industries.
Gabriel Reyes, Mayor of Adelanto, also said that the city would provide policy support as FF evaluates potential locations for its future robotics factory.
And this momentum will continue. On September 19, FF will launch several new products, including Master Mini, and officially introduce Industry Productivity Solutions 1.0 for our EAI Robotics Education Ecosystem. Then, on September 28, we will hold Part Two of our Business Partner Conference. We aim to provide global upstream partners with a gateway into our full ecosystem, spanning products, technology, capital, compliance, and more.
Now, let me share an update on AIxC and RoboShare.
The RoboShare & Co. Distributor Program was officially launched on August 26, and partner recruitment is now open across North America. Its goal is to build North America’s largest and most diverse robot-sharing platform. More than 80 robots are already at work on the platform. Going forward, RoboShare will further lower the barriers to robot adoption in the U.S. and reduce deployment costs. This will help bring robots into more real-world applications and accelerate their broader adoption. All right, see you next week!”
