FORZA X1 REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
FORT PIERCE, FLORIDA, August
7, 2023 – Forza X1, Inc. (Nasdaq: FRZA) (“Forza” or the “Company”), a
new developer of electric sport boats with a mission to inspire the adoption of sustainable recreational boating, today
reported operational highlights and financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
“We aim to be among the first to develop
and manufacture electric boats targeting the recreational market,” said Jim Leffew, Chief Executive Officer and President
of Forza X1, Inc. “Our mission is to inspire the adoption of sustainable recreational boating by producing stylish electric
sport boats. We are focused on the creation and implementation of marine electric vehicle (“EV”) technology to control
and power our electric boats utilizing our proprietary outboard electric motor. Our electric boats are being designed as fully
integrated electric boats including the hull, outboard motor, and control system.”
“We believe that the boating industry
will follow in the footsteps of the electrification of the automotive industry by creating electric boats that meet or exceed the
traditional boating consumer’s expectations of price, value and run times. In other words, electric boats must offer a similar
experience when compared to traditional gas-powered boats in terms of size, capability, and price point,” state Jim Leffew.
”To date, Forza
X1 has built-out and tested multiple Forza company units, including: three offshore-style catamarans, two bay boat-style catamarans,
one deck boat and three 22-foot center console (F22) monohulls. In addition, we have also electrified a pontoon boat for a major
national pontoon manufacturer. We are in the process of an additional pontoon electrification project and are building an additional
five monohulls. Each build cycle includes improvements and involves extensive duration and performance testing. The engine design
and lower units and the control systems are continuously improved with each iteration. Cooling system improvements have also been
prioritized and have yielded myriad benefits to runtime, speed, and range. We continue to iterate the engine design, including
value engineering of parts and lightweighting of engine components. We are experimenting with our first 300 HP stacked motor design.”
added Jim Leffew
“In June, Forza X1 announced that it
received an initial purchase order from OneWater Marine, Inc. (Nasdaq:ONEW) indicating its intention to purchase 100 units, representing
approximately $12,000,000 in revenue, of the Company’s upcoming 22-foot electric monohull boat, which was introduced in March
of 2023. This milestone agreement will allow Forza to sell through the conventional dealer model sales channel to support those
looking for a more traditional way of purchasing a boat, or to accompany trade-ins, financing needs, and training. The participation
of OneWater has been well-received in the marketplace and is a significant achievement for Forza X1.” stated Jim Leffew
“We continue to anticipate revenues from
the sale of these fully integrated electric boats and motors to commence in late 2023 and early 2024. Forza X1 will continue to
build prototype engines and boats for the next six to nine months,” stated Jim Leffew
“Recently, we have engaged with several
high-profile marine manufacturers and are offering our electrification expertise and hardware packages as a service. We are in
the design and prototype phase to provide our solution to a nationally recognized boat manufacturer and are expected to build up
to two demonstration units for their late summer open house & dealer meeting. Additional confidential discussions have been
held with other renowned and start-up manufacturers representing a variety of hull platform types.” state Jim Leffew.
“The North Carolina factory plans are
proceeding apace with clearing of the land 100% complete and rough grading 100% complete. We expect to begin final grading and
site construction before the end of the third quarter of 2023.” stated Jim Leffew.
“On June 12, 2023, we issued and sold
in a firm commitment underwritten public offering(the “Offering”) pursuant to the term of an underwriting agreement
that we entered into with ThinkEquity LLC on June 10, 2023 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), an aggregate of 5,334,000
shares of our Common Stock at a public offering price of $1.50 per share, for gross proceeds of $8,001,000, before deducting underwriting
discounts, commissions and offering expenses. These additional funds will go to the construction of our new manufacturing facility
in North Carolina.” added Jim Leffew.
Highlights for the Quarter Ended
June 30, 2023:
| · | The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $16,516,320 as of June 30, 2023. |
| · | The Company had working capital of approximately $16,790,215 as of June 30, 2023. |
