The first one on the D. S. LCR the automotive industry was about combustion technology dominant produce less emerged first with the national market and then global company.
Carsten Breitfeld: The first 100 years of the automotive industry was about combustion technology. Dominant producers emerged first within national market and then globally. Companies like Ford, GM, and Chrysler dominated in the US. Toyota and Nissan first dominated in Asia and then globally. Europeans like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Japanese producers like Lexus came to dominate the high-end of the global market. The next 100 years will be about electrification, connectivity, and intelligent systems. Toyota has taken the leading position in the mass market with its hybrid EV technology. Tesla dominates the middle market. But at the high end of the market, there's currently no dominant player, not Maybach, not Rolls-Royce, not Porsche, or Maserati. The first truly high-end global luxury EV producer will be Faraday Future when we introduce our flagship model, the FF 91, in July 2022.

As comparative approximately $18 million operating loss for the three months ended September 32020.
The increase was primarily driven by increased costs to bring the half of manufacturing for some of the default commercial production.
Chuck McBride: The increase was primarily driven by increased costs to bring the Hanford manufacturing facility to full commercial production. This includes the completion of production and manufacturing tooling, execution of supply chain efforts, and further enhancing engineering, testing, certification, validation, calibration capabilities, as well as increased expenses for the FF 91. Finally, the increase also includes additional costs for certain company litigation and loss on disposal of property and equipment relating to the abandonment of certain FF 91 program assets. We expect net loss to increase to approximately $280 million during the three months ended 30 September 2021 relative to an approximate $33 million net loss for the three months ended 30 September 2020. The increase in net loss is attributable to the significant increase in operating expenses. The loss relating to the fair value measurement of related party notes payable.

We have revised our estimate for additional funding that we will required reach profitability and positive cash flow in 2024.
Chuck McBride: We have revised our estimate for additional funding that we will require to reach profitability and positive cash flow in 2024. On 12 November, we updated our estimate that we will require $1.5 billion additional funding, up from previous estimate of $1.4 billion. The additional capital will fund the FF 81 and FF 71 programs, and is not related to the initial FF 91 program. Relative to our business plan introduced prior to the business combination, we anticipate increased costs. These increases are primarily attributable to certain product improvements and upgrades related to the improved capabilities of the FF 91, the acceleration of expenditures relating to the preparation and development of the FF 81, and recent macroeconomic challenges, including increased construction labor costs, raw material prices and price increases, semiconductor chip shortages, tariffs, and other supply chain constraints.

Carsten Breitfeld: Thank you, Chuck. I would like to wrap up with four simple reasons that we are excited about where Faraday Future is today. First, we have built a luxury, intelligent, and connected clean tech vehicle that is designed as much for the passenger as it is for the driver. Second, our Hanford manufacturing facility is progressing. Third, we have sufficient cash to take us through the launch of the FF 91 in July. And fourth, we completed our executive leadership team on 1 November 2021, and we are continuing to ramp up hiring. When we launch the FF 91 in July 2022, our car will be the first entrant into the luxury EV market. Thank you for your time today.
