EVgo Q3 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

Key Takeaways

• Neutral Sentiment: Majority shareholder LS Power made an unsolicited, non-binding offer to acquire the shares it does not own for $2 per share. An independent special committee is reviewing the proposal, and EVgo said no decisions have been made.
• Neutral Sentiment: EVgo’s core charging business grew, with charging network revenue up 29% year over year to $72 million and gross margin reaching 39%; however, total revenue fell 1% to $91 million as eXtend construction revenue declined. Public-network throughput per stall was down 4% year over year, though management said it rose 7% excluding OEM charging credits.
• Negative Sentiment: EVgo revised its 2026 outlook to reflect slower throughput and a shifted deployment schedule, expecting revenue of $375 million–$400 million and an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $15 million–$30 million. It plans to deploy fewer public sites and spend about $100 million less in gross CapEx than previously targeted.
• Positive Sentiment: Management expects cost reductions to put 2027 adjusted G&A at least 15% below its previous implied outlook, while saying the company is already Adjusted EBITDA positive before growth expenses. EVgo ended September with approximately $787 million in available liquidity.
• Positive Sentiment: EVgo reported more than 290 operational NACS stalls, with NACS vehicles accounting for about 9% of network throughput; those stalls had a 35% higher charge rate than CCS stalls in Q3, though they are still ramping. The company is also developing a 750 kW charging system and expanding site-host partnerships expected to bring more than 900 chargers to shopping centers.

With that, I will turn the call over to Badar Khan, EVgo's CEO.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Thank you, Heather. Before I turn to our strategic priorities, I want to address the unsolicited non-binding offer that LS Power, our majority shareholder, has made for the shares of EVgo that they do not currently own at $2 per share in a take-private transaction. The board has established a special committee comprised of independent and disinterested directors to review and evaluate the proposal with the assistance of independent legal and financial advisors. No decisions have been made, and when we have an update to share, we will be sure to do so. That said, we are here to talk about our third quarter results. Therefore, we will not be commenting further on the proposal at this time. We appreciate you keeping your questions at the end of the call focused on our performance and our results.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

With that, today I want to cover four key areas: our improved competitive positioning, the progress we are making on NACS and our next-generation charging architecture, the partnerships that are strengthening and expanding our site pipeline, and the actions we are taking to accelerate our path to sustainable profitability. Throughout EVgo's 16-year history, we've continually evolved and improved through the innovation and dedication of our talented team. Most charging companies in the industry buy charging equipment from power electronics companies that have very little direct interaction with end-use customers. Today, we've designed our own next-generation charging architecture, joining only a handful of companies that design their own equipment. At the heart of EVgo's next-gen design is a focus on the EV driver experience, leveraging learnings from 1.9 million customer accounts and over 10 million charging sessions per year.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Features include better cable maneuverability, a touchless payment interface, and advanced hardware and firmware to enhance reliability and elevate the charging experience. When we first started, 50 kW was considered fast. Our technology is evolving rapidly to deliver faster charging, and fast charging stations make EV ownership more convenient and drive broader EV adoption. In 2022, 70% of our stalls were 50 kW. Today, 70% of our stalls are 350 kW, and we are planning the launch of our 750 kW charging architecture next year. Our site quality has also improved from two-stall sites with local and regional site hosts in our early days to up to 20-stall flagship sites in high-quality locations with premier national site hosts. EVgo is bringing fast charging where drivers go about their daily lives. We've delivered excellent throughput and top-line growth by primarily targeting CCS drivers.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Tesla drivers, who make up more than half of all electric vehicles on U.S. roads, can charge in our CCS cables, but with adapters. Now, we are leaning into the NACS transition and working with Tesla to add EVgo Superchargers, as well as adding native NACS stalls across our network that Tesla drivers can find on their nav. Over time, this doubles our addressable market. Our agreement with Tesla to deploy EVgo-branded Superchargers continues to progress. As a reminder, EVgo owns these chargers, selects their locations and sets pricing, while Tesla builds, maintains, and operates them. EVgo Superchargers are natively visible in Tesla's navigation and trip planner, and provide the over 3.5 million Tesla drivers seamless access to the EVgo footprint. Our first EVgo Supercharger site in the Chicago area is now open, and we expect a second site just outside of Houston to follow in Q4.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Together, these two locations represent the first 20 of hundreds of stalls expected to open nationwide as part of EVgo's plan to add Superchargers in high-demand locations. In addition, EVgo Superchargers and EVgo NACS stations are now available in the Tesla nav, making it easier for Tesla drivers to find a convenient EVgo station on the go. Alongside the Superchargers, we are rolling out NACS connectors across our existing network, and our goal remains for all 2023 vintage and newer sites to have NACS within two years, which is expected to be two-thirds of our network by the end of 2028. Let's look at where that rollout stands today. We're at over 290 operational NACS stalls, that is up from 100 at the end of last year, and we expect to reach approximately 400 by year-end 2026.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

NACS vehicles now account for approximately 9% of EVgo's public network throughput, more than doubling from last year as our first NACS stalls come online. Why does this matter? For years, EV charging in the U.S. has been split across competing connector standards, which created friction for drivers who had to buy adapters, adding cost and complexity for consumers. That is changing. The auto OEMs are standardizing around NACS, which will help drivers and CPOs alike, and ultimately be beneficial for long-term adoption of EVs. The early performance is encouraging. While our NACS stalls are still ramping and are not yet as productive as our CCS stalls, they delivered a 35% higher charge rate than CCS stalls in the third quarter. This is driven by the current mix of newer NACS vehicles and high-powered 350 kW equipment.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

In other words, we could see considerable upside, approaching 400 kWh in throughput per stall per day if our NACS stalls reach the same level of utilization as our CCS stalls today. We are scaling NACS deliberately to attract Tesla and other NACS drivers without an adapter to the network. We expect the rollout to create some near-term pressure on throughput per stall as new connectors ramp, but we believe NACS is an important long-term opportunity to grow our business and gain market share. EVgo has successfully navigated the connector transition before, from CHAdeMO to CCS, which helped us scale our business to one of the largest fast-charging companies in the U.S. today.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

This quarter, we also unveiled a first look at our next-generation charging architecture, developed at EVgo's Innovation Lab and designed to future-proof the network as vehicle battery capabilities advance, while focusing on features to enhance the customer experience. The system could deliver up to 750 kW of charging power with dynamic power sharing, which automatically delivers the exact output each vehicle needs, adjusting in real time and smoothing demand spikes. Every station will include NACS as part of our effort to increase our addressable market. We are redesigning the EV driver user experience, including touchless payment and easier cable management, and we are building for reliability with advanced hardware and firmware that elevates every charging session. The final charger design is expected to be unveiled in 2027 as EVgo begins to deploy the new architecture.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

EVgo's site host partnerships with grocers, retailers, and others allow us to expand our network across the nation. Our site hosts are excited about the foot traffic EVgo's fast-charging stations bring to their business, allowing us to install much better, larger sites, including flagship locations we have built with support from GM, such as its site at Meijer in Warren, Michigan. Fast charging is an ideal fit for grocery store locations like Meijer, given that the average American household visits the grocery store two to three times per week. These locations are an important part of our growth strategy, and we've recently expanded our relationships with Brixmor and Regency Centers, two of the largest REITs in the U.S., which together will bring more than 900 new fast chargers to shopping centers.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

These companies have extensive portfolios and feature anchor tenants, including Albertsons, Kroger, Publix, H-E-B, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Sprouts. Brixmor has been an EVgo partner since 2016. This expansion is expected to add more than 500 new fast chargers and take us to over 90 centers, which is more than 25% of Brixmor's U.S. portfolio. The Regency expansion is expected to add more than 400 new fast chargers and increase Regency's EV infrastructure footprint by more than 20%. With these expanded partnerships, EVgo is building exactly where drivers want to be. Let's now turn to our path to sustainable profitability. The past two years have not been without their challenges. EV sales are slower in the U.S. than we originally expected, especially CCS sales, as the industry transitions to NACS. Federal incentives for EV purchases and EV charging infrastructure were eliminated last year.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

This year's summer driving season did not have its typical seasonal pickup, slowing growth in EVgo's throughput per stall this year, which has also been muted by the roll-off of low-margin legacy OEM charging credits. As a fast-charging operator, we are focusing on those things within our control. First, we are deploying capital more efficiently and investing where demand is strongest. That means building fewer, better sites in the locations where customer demand is highest, moving faster to close site agreements, and growing partnerships with portfolios like Regency and Brixmor, and with rideshare operators. Some sites we'd planned to launch this year will go back into the funnel until a more opportune time for their development. For 2026, we expect to deploy 550 to 650 new public owned and operated sites, with approximately $100 million less gross CapEx spend in 2026 than our previous targets.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Our stall pipeline is the strongest it's ever been, and while our 2026 and 2027 vintage cohorts are smaller than we initially expected, we believe these will be our best-performing vintage cohorts. Second, we are aiming to get more from every stall. We are focused on network health through hardware and software upgrades and the addition of NACS connectors. About 70% of our network is now 350 kW or higher, and our new 750 kW system with dynamic power sharing will give every driver the energy they need. We are also using AI-driven insights to design marketing campaigns that increase throughput, and we're removing lower-power legacy equipment through our ReNew program. Third, we are enacting cost controls. We've identified and are implementing a range of G&A cost reduction measures spanning headcount, discretionary spend, and other cost efficiency measures, including opportunities to further leverage AI.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

We estimate these efficiency efforts will enable adjusted G&A to be at least 15% below our implied previous view of $173 million-$178 million for 2027. This fully offsets cost inflation, increased costs from higher year-over-year growth, and a larger installed base. As a reminder, without growth expenses, which are estimated around 25% of total adjusted G&A, the company is already Adjusted EBITDA positive. That is why we are confident our business model allows us to dial up or dial down our growth, and as a result, we control how much we invest and where we invest. We expect these actions will lead to more sustainable growth in Adjusted EBITDA over the coming quarters. With that, I'll now turn it over to Keefer to share financial details from the third quarter and EVgo's 2026 outlook.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

Thank you, Badar. We ended Q3 with 5,530 stalls in operation, an approximate 3.3x increase compared to the end of 2021, and up 20% from 4,590 a year ago. We added 160 new stalls to the network in Q3 2026, including 100 new public EVgo-owned stalls. Our customer accounts continue to grow, and we are now over 1.9 million strong. We have over 290 NACS stalls today, and we will continue to expand NACS options for EV drivers through retrofits at our 350 kW sites and new build locations, as well as deploying our EVgo Supercharger sites. Total energy dispensed on EVgo's network was 392 GWh for the trailing 12 months, a 12% increase from the 350 GWh in the TTM period ending Q3 2025. Charging gross margin was 39% over the last 12 months, compared to 37% for the prior year's TTM.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

Adjusted EBITDA margin was a +1% on a trailing 12-month basis, compared to -6% in the prior year period. Now turning to our third quarter results in detail. Our throughput on the public network during the third quarter was 103 GWh, an 8% increase compared to last year's 95 GWh, and a 4% increase sequentially from 99 GWh in the second quarter. Daily throughput per stall was 283 kWh, 4% lower than the 295 kWh we reported in Q3 2025, but 3% higher sequentially. OEM charging credits contributed 13 kWh of daily throughput per stall in Q3 2026, down 69% from 42 kWh a year ago. Importantly, if you exclude OEM credits, daily throughput per stall actually grew 7% year-over-year to 270 kWh from 253 kWh in 2025, with details included in our presentation appendix.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

Charge rate was 60 kW versus 55 kW last year, and utilization was 20% versus 22%. Revenue for Q3 2026 was $91 million, a 1% decrease compared to $92 million in Q3 2025, with the decline driven entirely by our non-core business. In our core charging business, charging network revenue was $72 million, a 29% increase versus $56 million in the prior year, driven primarily by a larger operating network, representing our 19th consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year charging revenue growth. eXtend revenue was $16 million, down $16 million from $32 million in the same period in 2025, driven by lower construction revenue. A reminder that eXtend will continue to largely trend lower over the next several quarters, and by 2028, will be a $5 million-$10 million per year revenue business.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

AV and ancillary revenue was $3 million versus $5 million in the prior year. As we have noted before, this revenue line remains episodic, as it is driven by deployment timing for long-duration projects with our AV partners. Charging network gross profit was $28 million versus $20 million last year. Charging network gross margin was 39%, a 380 basis point increase, driven primarily by increased network OEM revenue. Third quarter adjusted gross profit was $32 million, up 21% versus the prior year's $27 million. Adjusted gross margin was 35% in Q3 versus 29% in the same period in 2025. Adjusted G&A for the quarter was $36 million versus $32 million last year, representing 39% of revenue compared to 34% in Q3 2025, and is in line with expectations as we continue investing in network scale, accelerating stall deployment, and our latest generation architecture.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

If we look at adjusted G&A as a percentage of our core charging business, it was 50% in Q3 this year, improving from 57% last year. We believe this view helps demonstrate the operating leverage of G&A by removing the episodic eXtend and AV revenue noise. The above resulted in an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2026, improving from a loss of $5 million in the third quarter of 2025. Now let's look at our balance sheet and liquidity position. As a reminder, EVgo has two debt facilities to draw upon to finance our infrastructure build-out, a $750 million DOE loan with availability through January 2030 and a 2042 maturity, and a $300 million commercial bank facility, including $75 million of uncommitted incremental availability with availability through July 2028 and a 2030 maturity.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

In the third quarter, we borrowed $17 million from the commercial facility. We have approximately $620 million of available capacity across the two facilities, both at attractive financing rates. Combined with our cash equivalents, and restricted cash, as of September 30th, EVgo has approximately $787 million in available liquidity. Turning to our outlook and guidance for 2026. As Badar discussed, we are adapting to the current EV sales environment and adjusting our deployment schedule. We believe focusing on higher daily throughput per stall and financial return sites for 2026 and 2027 will help us on the path to sustainable profitability. For the full year 2026, we expect to add 1,075 to 1,275 new stalls, including 600 to 750 new public and AV stalls, and 475 to 525 eXtend stalls.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

Our expectations for 2026 are updated to reflect some build sliding into 2027, as well as adding certain sites back into the funnel for future development. Importantly, there is one large 50-stall AV site that we are aiming to operationalize in late Q4 2026, but timing could slip into 2027. Turning to the income statement, EVgo anticipates total 2026 revenues in the $375 million-$400 million range, reflecting lower throughput outlook and the updated stall cadence. Regarding our non-charging revenue, we continue to expect 2026 eXtend revenue in the $90 million-$95 million range. AV and ancillary revenues are anticipated to be $30 million-$45 million. The updated range reflects the opening timing for one large AV site that is expected in late December, although it may move into early 2027.

[Keefer Lehner, CFO at EVgo]

Adjusted G&A is expected to be approximately $145 million for the year, approximately 5% lower than our initial guidance of $150 million-$155 million. With the additional cost control initiatives put in place, we expect our 2027 adjusted G&A will be approximately 15% below prior expectations. These result in anticipated 2026 Adjusted EBITDA loss in the range of -$30 million to -$15 million. I want to reiterate our excitement about both the near-term and long-term opportunity for EVgo to organically expand our network, continually enhance the customer experience, and drive shareholder value creation via the realization of the EBITDA potential of this business. With that, we will open the call to Q&A.

[Operator]

Thank you. At this time, we will conduct a question-and-answer session. As a reminder, to ask a question, you will need to press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from the line of Chris Dendrinos of RBC Capital Markets. Your line is now open.

[Chris Dendrinos, Analyst at RBC Capital Markets]

Yeah. Good morning, and thanks for taking the question. I wanted to follow-up here a bit on some of the throughput performance, and I think you highlighted some of the puts and the takes here, just given some of the maybe OEM credit impacts. I guess if I just look at this quarter versus last year, I think throughput per stall day was down. Could you maybe, I guess, dive into the drivers here and just kind of what you are seeing on the network and confidence in overall throughput per day increasing going forward? Thanks.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Yeah. Morning, Chris. Yeah, so throughput in the third quarter was a little softer than we expected, due to the issues that we have been discussing on the last couple of calls, which we did continue to see in Q3. First is that the slower ramp from the late 2025 cohort. That is the cohort, if you remember, that we have very high offsets. The roll-off of these customers on OEM charging credits and their conversion to retail continues to be lower than we expected. The declining competitiveness of our lower power, 50 kW stalls in particular, and of course lower VIO. Those are the kind of the issues. We did also see lower, the typical seasonal pickup from the summer driving season. We did see that lower this year, although that looks like it was across the entire industry.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

I think as a reminder, Chris, a couple of these things are really temporary. The OEM charging credit customers rolling off in particular will be done by the end of this year. If you take out those customers, they are really masking some pretty good underlying growth, which is in that presentation appendix slide. You can see that underlying daily throughput per stall is actually up about 7% year-over-year. The lower power, the 50 kW stalls, if you remember, they were something like 70% of our network four or five years ago. They will all be gone within the next couple of years, if not sooner. So, those things are really quite temporary.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

If I look out into the longer term, as I said in the last call, our mature 350 kW machines, they are already 70% of the network, and they are in the mid-300s kWh in daily throughput per stall, which is pretty much where our 2028 target is. We said last quarter, the top 15% of our network is already at 600 kWh per stall per day. We have got our next generation architecture that is up to 750 kW coming online next year. I think the really interesting additional nugget that we provided on the call today is what is happening with our NACS retrofits. We can see that our NACS stalls have a much higher charge rate than our CCS stalls.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

The reason that is super interesting to us is that when these NACS stalls reach the same level of utilization as our CCS stalls, with that higher charge rate, again, that is because the vehicles tend to be a little faster. Our machines that have the NACS stalls are all 350s kW versus including the 100s kW and 50s kW. You could actually see daily throughput per stall exceeding what we are expecting system-wide by 2028. NACS throughput is now 9% of our network. Our NACS stalls are not 9% of our network, so that tells us there is a ton of demand for these NACS stalls, which gives us great insight into where to deploy more of these stalls over the next couple of years. Two-thirds of our network will have NACS. For all those reasons, we feel really good about where we see throughput per stall growing.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

I mean, I should also say we have got our first EVgo Supercharger site live. It has only been a week or so, but I will say it is off to a flying start, so we are thrilled about that too.

[Chris Dendrinos, Analyst at RBC Capital Markets]

Got it. Thanks. I guess maybe just to follow up on that comment around NACS, and yeah, I mean, really interesting to see the utilization and throughput rates here. I think, going back to last quarter, you all had maybe highlighted that those Tesla stalls had maybe a lower initial throughput or utilization rates, just given the build-out of that. Can you maybe speak to that dynamic and what you are kind of seeing from those Tesla-specific stalls? Thanks.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Yeah. So, Chris, the EVgo Superchargers that are being deployed and operated by Tesla, the first stall, the first site went live last week. What we've been talking about in the past is that the retrofit NACS stalls that we've been deploying over the last nine or 12 months, because we are ramping those up, Tesla drivers and NACS drivers are not used to charging at NACS stalls. We have lower utilization, lower productivity on those NACS stalls. And of course, that's ramping. As I said on the call just today, that now 9% of our total network is actually coming from NACS drivers. They're charging in both our NACS stalls, but actually, a fair number of them are also charging in our CCS stalls with adapters, which gives us really good insight into where to deploy the next wave of NACS stalls.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Our strategy up until this point has really been deploying NACS retrofits, so where we are taking out CCS stalls that are very productive, putting in NACS so that we can capture where the majority of the market is going to be over the next couple of years without harming throughput too much. The data that we're now seeing tells us actually we can accelerate our NACS deployment and get great throughput. And I think that's a really nice place to be and a really nice turning point for the company.

[Chris Dendrinos, Analyst at RBC Capital Markets]

Got it. Appreciate the answers there.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Yeah.

[Operator]

Thank you. One moment for our next question. Again, as a reminder to ask a question, you'll need to press star one one on your telephone. Again, as a reminder, you'll need to press star one one on your telephone. Our next question comes from the line of Chris Pierce of Needham. Your line is now open.

[Chris Pierce, Analyst at Needham]

Hey, good morning, everyone. You guys talked a couple times about new EV sales being the tip of the spear and that sort of being the driver of sort of lowering the stall guidance you have out there. I guess I was wondering what you could share on used EV sales, used EV drivers, if you've seen different behavior between that cohort of used EV drivers as used EV sales pick up.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Morning, Chris. I think that a couple of things to say about EV sales in general. We saw the kind of quarterly new EV sales really reach the bottom in the spring, I would say kind of the spring of this year, and we've actually seen quarterly growth since then. Year-over-year, when we start to see the October EV sales and November and December, I suspect we'll see tremendous year-over-year growth versus last year because of the incentives rolled off in September. That's actually the trajectory of EV sales that's actually pretty good since the bottom. That was really around the spring of this year. For used EV sales, the story is actually even better. Used EV sales have been rising pretty much consistently for the last couple of years since we've seen the data being reported.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

We're thrilled with it because as we've said on a few different calls before, used EV drivers are accessing electric vehicles at a lower price point, so we're bringing in a broader customer segment. Used EV drivers will more likely rely on public fast charging. They're less likely to have charging at home, and we know that they charge on our network at a higher rate than new EV drivers. For all those reasons, the used EV market looking more like the rest of the automotive market is just a tremendously positive tailwind for the company.

[Chris Pierce, Analyst at Needham]

Okay. Should we think of those as using these Tesla stalls, and that's why you want to I'm just kind of curious. Is it too soon to see if, like I know that that's what the hope was, but I'm just kind of Is it too early to know if they're really using those stalls? Because, I mean, I guess I would have just thought that the vintage stalls where you had the higher CapEx, that might be where you'd see a larger percentage of used EV drivers, and that would sort of ramp the trajectory of throughput on those stalls. Maybe that's not as like a one-to-one correlated as I thought.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

No, I don't think it is a one-to-one correlation, Chris. Maybe I think it's just worth as a reminder, NACS vehicles, both Tesla and non-Tesla, are now about 60% of total VIO, and we expect that that will grow to about 80% or more of total VIO by 2030. So it's a super important growing part of the market. As you know, we've had about a 20-fold growth in revenue in the last five years. I think from 2021 to 2025, it's 100% CAGR, puts us in the top 1% of public companies in terms of growth rate. All of that has been through serving less than half the market. The opportunity for us to be able to capture NACS drivers essentially doubles the addressable market for us, and that is a tremendously positive tailwind for us.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

That's why we're leaning in so heavily on all the data points around figuring out where our NACS demand is highest, as well as the EVgo Superchargers, which we expect will attract both new and used EV drivers.

[Chris Pierce, Analyst at Needham]

Okay, perfect. That makes sense. Thanks for the color there.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Yeah.

Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. I'll now turn it back to Badar Khan, CEO, for closing remarks.

[Badar Khan, CEO at EVgo]

Great. Well, thank you, everyone. We saw almost a 30% year-over-year growth in our core charging business, and together with the deployment of EVgo Superchargers, NACS stalls, our next-generation 750 kW charging architecture, and just excellent site host partnerships, we are really very excited about the long-term value creation trajectory for the company. Thanks for joining, and see you all next time.
