AYRO Becomes Tier One Supplier for General Motors
Work will expand the scope of AYRO's recently announced low-cost manufacturing and engineering efforts; AYRO intends to collaborate with partner GLV for future projects with the top U.S. auto manufacturer
ROUND ROCK, TX / ACCESSWIRE / December 12, 2024 / AYRO, Inc. (NASDAQ:AYRO) ("AYRO" or the "Company"), a designer and manufacturer of electric, purpose-built delivery vehicles and solutions for micro distribution, micro-mobility, and last-mile delivery, announces that it has been named a tier one supplier for General Motors (GM) through its partnership with GLV Ventures (GLV). AYRO and GLV intend to supply GM as part of an increase in scope of their previously announced low-cost manufacturing and engineering efforts.
Josh Silverman, AYRO's Executive Chairman, commented, "Becoming a tier one supplier to GM is a significant accomplishment and favorably positions AYRO to work with one of the largest auto manufacturers in the world. This status, which was secured in conjunction with our partnership with GLV, is expected to leverage GLV's low-cost facilities to expand our focus to securing design and manufacturing projects. We believe that these new relationships are a catalyst for us as we continue to evaluate opportunities to organically grow AYRO beyond its current low speed vehicle production capabilities. We believe that our new collaboration with GLV could lead to additional opportunities with other key manufacturers, such as GM, with the potential for new revenue-generating purchase orders. We look forward to providing updates as appropriate."

These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any expected future results, performance, or achievements. Words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "intend," "expect," "may," "plan," "will," "would" and their opposites and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements include, without limitation: AYRO's success depends on its ability to complete the development of and successfully introduce new products; AYRO may experience delays in the development and introduction of new products; the ability of AYRO's suppliers to deliver parts and assemble vehicles; the ability of the purchaser to terminate or reduce purchase orders; AYRO has a history of losses and has never been profitable, and AYRO expects to incur additional losses in the future and may never be profitable; AYRO faces risks associated with litigation and claims; AYRO may be unable to replace lost manufacturing capacity on a timely and cost-effective basis, which could adversely impact its operations and ability to meet delivery timelines; the market for AYRO's products is developing and may not develop as expected and AYRO, accordingly, may never meet its targeted production and sales goals; AYRO's limited operating history makes evaluating its business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of any investment in its securities; AYRO may experience lower-than-anticipated market acceptance of its vehicles; developments in alternative technologies or improvements in the internal combustion engine may have a materially adverse effect on the demand for AYRO's products; the markets in which AYRO operates are highly competitive, and AYRO may not be successful in competing in these industries; AYRO may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm AYRO's financial condition and liquidity if AYRO is not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims; increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of raw materials, in particular lithium-ion cells, chipsets and displays, could harm AYRO's business; AYRO may be required to raise additional capital to fund its operations, and such capital raising may be costly or difficult to obtain and could dilute AYRO stockholders' ownership interests, and AYRO's long term capital requirements are subject to numerous risks; AYRO may fail to comply with evolving environmental and safety laws and regulations; and AYRO is subject to governmental export and import controls that could impair AYRO's ability to compete in international market due to licensing requirements and subject AYRO to liability if AYRO is not in compliance with applicable laws.
