Electric Vehicle Battery Hopeful QuantumScape Dives After Hours on News of Stock Flotation

Motley Fool2021-03-23

The company is issuing 13 million new shares.

QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) wasn't exactly an electric stock in after-hours trading Monday, following the post-market disclosure that it is floating a fresh stock issue. The maker of batteries for electric vehicles (EVs) will issue 13 million shares of its Class A common stock. It will also grant the flotation's underwriters, led by Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, a 30-day option to buy up to an additional, collective 1.95 million shares.

QuantumScape said it will utilize its share of the resulting proceeds "to build a larger QS-0 pre-pilot line than recently announced; to cover its full share of equity contributions to its joint venture with [Volkswagen] for the previously disclosed 20GWh expansion of QS-1 joint manufacturing facility; and for working capital and general corporate purposes."

Last month, the company announced its plans for a new pilot production factory where it would make the QS solid-state vehicle batteries. QuantumScape aims to produce and sell such products, which promise more power and safety -- and quicker recharging times -- than current models used in electric vehicles (EVs). The company does not yet have a battery on the market.

QuantumScape has benefited from a strategic investment by Volkswagen, which recently stated that it aims to become the No. 1 EV maker in the world in the very near future.

QuantumScape's new stock issue isn't painfully dilutive -- according to Yahoo! Finance, the company has just over 210 million shares outstanding at the moment. Yet it's a stark illustration that, as a pre-revenue business involved in a potentially capital-intensive activity, it could remain very hungry for funding.

That's likely what is driving the stock southward in after-hours trading. It was trading down 8.3% in the early evening hours.

The maker of batteries for electric vehicles (EVs) will issue 13 million shares of its Class A common stock. It will also grant the flotation's underwriters, led by Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, a 30-day option to buy up to an additional, collective 1.95 million shares.QuantumScape said it will utilize its share of the resulting proceeds \"to build a larger QS-0 pre-pilot line than recently announced; to cover its full share of equity contributions to its joint venture with [Volkswagen] for the previously disclosed 20GWh expansion of QS-1 joint manufacturing facility; and for working capital and general corporate purposes.\"IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.Last month, the company announced its plans for a new pilot production factory where it would make the QS solid-state vehicle batteries. QuantumScape aims to produce and sell such products, which promise more power and safety -- and quicker recharging times -- than current models used in electric vehicles (EVs). The company does not yet have a battery on the market.QuantumScape has benefited from a strategic investment by Volkswagen, which recently stated that it aims to become the No. 1 EV maker in the world in the very near future.QuantumScape's new stock issue isn't painfully dilutive -- according to Yahoo! Finance, the company has just over 210 million shares outstanding at the moment. Yet it's a stark illustration that, as a pre-revenue business involved in a potentially capital-intensive activity, it could remain very hungry for funding.That's likely what is driving the stock southward in after-hours trading. It was trading down 8.3% in the early evening hours.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"QS":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":13,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.35.12","shortVersion":"4.35.12","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1165086858","isCrawlerRequest":true}
