Nikola Corporation

Good morning. Welcome to Nicola Corporation's first quarter 2024 earnings and business update call. Currently, all participants are in a listen-only mode. We will begin today's call with a short video presentation, followed by management's prepared remarks. A brief question and answer session will follow the prepared remarks. If anyone should require operator assistance during the conference, please press star zero on your telephone keypad. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce Zoe Jin, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Thank you, Operator, and good morning, everyone. Welcome to Nikola Corporation's first quarter 2024 earnings and business update call. Joining me today are Steve Gursky, President and CEO, and Tom Okre, Chief Financial Officer. A press release detailing our financial and business results was distributed earlier this morning. This release can be found on the Investor Relations section of our website, along with presentation slides accompanying today's call. Today's discussion includes references to non-GAAP measures. The presentation includes adjusted EBITDA, earnings per share, adjusted free cash flow, and other non-GAAP measures. These measures are reconciled to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures and can be found at the end of the Q1 earnings press release we issued today. Today's discussion also includes forward-looking statements about our future results, expectations, and plans. Actual results may differ materially from those stated, and some factors that could cause actual results to differ are also explained at the end of today's earnings press release on page 2 of our earnings call deck and in our filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. After the video presentation, Steve and Tom will provide their prepared remarks, followed by analyst Q&A. Then we will conclude with questions from our stockholders. Please begin the video presentation. Thank you.

Nikola's mission is to pioneer solutions for a zero emission world. And we want to assist companies that are investing in sustainable solutions and decarbonizing the trucking industry.
