If Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ: MULN) latest financial report is any indication, the double-digit growth projected for the electric vehicle (“EV”) industry is right on the money.

A recent Facts & Factors study noted that, according to the latest research study, global electric vehicle market size and share were valued at roughly USD $185 billion in 2021 and are expected to reach USD $980 billion by 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 24.5% during the forecast period (2022–2028). The report analyzes various factors and their implications on the electric vehicle market’s growth (https://ibn.fm/dwT2e).
The article further noted that “the electric vehicle was developed primarily to replace polluting traditional ways of transportation. As a result of various technological developments, it has gained in popularity.
“[The electric vehicle] outperforms traditional automobiles in terms of fuel efficiency, carbon emissions and maintenance, as well as ease of charging at home, a smoother ride, and less engine noise,” the article continued. “Pure, hybrid and plug-in hybrid batteries are the three primary types of electric car batteries.”
Mullen Automotive’s financial report for the latest quarter, which ended June 30, 2022, stated that the company has more than $61 million in cash and cash equivalents, after having significantly strengthened its balance sheet throughout the quarter. The company recently paid off a secured convertible promissory note executed in July 2020 with DBI Lease Buyback Servicing LLC, an affiliate of Drawbridge Investments LLC. As part of this announcement, the company noted that an existing Mullen shareholder acquired the note and entered into an agreement with Mullen to extend its maturity date by two years.
In addition, Mullen has reached an agreement to secure $275 million in additional funding for the company, pending approval by company shareholders.
“We’ve made solid progress over the past quarter,” said Mullen CEO and chair David Michery. “The company’s balance sheet is the strongest it has ever been in our history.”
