Management will host an earnings call and webcast on Monday, November 24, 2025 at 4:30 PM Eastern Time.
Third Quarter Highlights
Revenue was $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Gross loss was $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to gross profit of $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2024; primarily reflecting the completion of legacy builds, that are not expected to recur, and elevated tariff-related costs.
Net income was $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, reflecting a non-cash gain related to the conversion of debt into preferred stock.
Continued execution of the Company's cost-containment plan to right-size the cost structure and support disciplined growth, more than $1 million in annualized savings expected.
Recent Business Highlights
New collaborative line with the Chelsea Truck Company for modern Land Rover Defender and INEOS Grenadier builds enhances utilization of manufacturing resources and broadens the Company's total addressable market.
Award-winning Porsche 911 marks ECD's entry into the Porsche restoration and customization market through its Boutique Division.
Management Commentary
Speaking on the results for the quarter, Scott Wallace, CEO & Co-Founder of ECD, stated, "During the third quarter, we made significant progress in strengthening ECD's operational foundation and right-sizing our cost structure to support disciplined, long-term growth. While our financial results reflect the impact of completing legacy builds and tariff-related headwinds, we exited the quarter leaner, more agile, and with a focus on profitability and execution.
"Our ongoing cost-containment efforts, first announced in June, are expected to result in a measurable impact, with more than $1 million in annualized savings coming from headcount and overhead reductions. Importantly, these changes were made thoughtfully, preserving our craftsmanship and production capabilities. We maintained our commitment to build quality and customer experience while ensuring the underlying operations of the business are set up for greater consistency and scalability.
"At the same time, we invested in our future by diversifying our product lineup and strengthening our brand position through innovation. The recently announced collaboration with Chelsea Truck Company expands our addressable market with more affordably priced and tastefully upgraded modern Defender and INEOS Grenadiers broadening our product mix with faster-turn, capital-efficient builds that leverage existing manufacturing capacity. In October, our first Porsche 911 build was completed, representing an exciting new avenue for growth, and was met with immediate validation at its car show debut, taking home Best in Show - European Modified Division at the 2025 Festivals of Speed.
"We believe the groundwork laid in the third quarter of 2025 will translate into improved financial performance and sustained value creation as we close out 2025 and look ahead to 2026," concluded Mr. Wallace.
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue: ECD reported third quarter revenue of $5.8 million compared to $6.4 million for the prior year.
Gross Profit/Loss: ECD reported third quarter loss of $1.7 million compared to profit of $2.0 million for the prior year. This was primarily driven by a non-recurring labor and consumable release as a result of completing aged builds.
Operating expenses: Total expenses during the third quarter were $3.4 million, a $0.8 million increase from the prior-year period, primarily related to increased legal fees along with a recognition of a lease.
Operating loss: Operating loss reported during the third quarter was $5.0 million, a $4.4 million increase from the prior-year period. Increased loss was driven by reduced gross margin and increases in general and administrative costs.
Net Income: Net income reported during the third quarter was $2.2 million, a $4.8 million increase from the prior-year period loss. This is primarily driven by non-cash fair value adjustments.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA, reported during the third quarter was negative $4.7 million, a $4.2 million increase from the prior-year period.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company believes that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is useful to investors because it is commonly used to evaluate companies on the basis of operating performance and leverage.
EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the periods presented, nor have they been presented as an alternative to operating income or as an indicator of operating performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In accordance with SEC Regulation G, the non-GAAP measurements in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measurement, which can be viewed under the heading "Reconciliation of Net Income (loss) from Operations to EBITDA" in the financial tables included in this press release.
