Speaker Change #139: we're getting more and more new customers than orders so we expect deliveries to keep growing

Wang Zhao: We anticipate the revenues of the third quarter will reach RMB123 million as we continue to receive more new orders. The increasing orders also mean a higher demand for production capacity.

Operator: To withdraw a question, please press star 111 again.

Wang Zhao: While ensuring that every aircraft meets delivery standards, we are also actively working with large intelligent manufacturing enterprises such as GAC to establish a joint venture focused on production upgrading to automated production lines.

Wang Zhao: At the same time, we are expanding our Yunfu factory to scale up our production and establishing a new manufacturing base at Yihang, East China Regional Headquarters in Hefei city, which will meet the growing delivery demands in the East China region.

Wang Zhao: We are fully committed to ensuring production and delivery while advancing commercial operation, preparations, providing customers with operation training, and creating application demonstration projects. In terms of operation personnel training, we provide our customers with sufficient training, courses after the delivery, including theoretical learning, aircraft safety operation, daily maintenance, and emergency management, and so on, to ensure that personnel are satisfied and on duty to ensure operation safety.

Ting Song: We'll take a few moments and now we're going to take the first question and it comes from the land of Loret Li from Deutsche Bankerland.

Ting Song: We'll take a few moments and now we're going to take the first question and it comes from the land of Loret Li from Deutsche Bankerland. It will proceed after question.

Speaker Change #139: in the next phase our focus will be on tandending production facilities accelerating the deliverage of our existing auto ppeline and the new orders

Speaker Change #139: and for this year we will also help our customers to apply oc that in our demonstration projecting paneer cities to exemplify ebita operations

Ting Song: It will proceed after question.

Wang Zhao: Thank you for taking my question and congratulations on the strong quarter. My first question is thinking about the timeline of commercial operation to oversee markets. When would you expect to start that? Is that like 2025 realistic?

Speaker Change #139: and the interfutualure we aim to replicate this operational d and the share our experience inimmore location

Ting Song: Thank you for taking my question and congratulations on the strong quarter.

Speaker Change #139: she

Ting Song: My first question is thinking about the timeline of commercial operation to oversee markets.

Speaker Change #140: to add on your questionable distribution on the geographic mix

Ting Song: When would you expect to start that?

Speaker Change #141: the holders if you recall that the fourth quarter last year and as well as the first quar of this year are obviously over over revenue countrybute twent and twenty five percent of photal revenue

Wang Zhao: But since the TRT government is promoting no other day, we are seeing a very rapid growth from an appetite high. So we expect, in terms of geographic mix, that will be 90 percent from China for this year and next. And the percentage of the overseas revenue will decrease from last year, even though the international demand is still quite strong. Thank you. Thank you, that's pretty comprehensive.

Speaker Change #142: but since the pic government has promoting no other ly sort of seeing a very rapid growth on a havebig high so we expect him that in terms of geographic the mix that

Ting Song: Is that like 2025 realistic?

Speaker Change #143: will be ninety percent from china it this year next and the percentage of the overly revenue were decrease last year even though the international demands still quite strong

Speaker Change #144: thank you

Wang Zhao: And my second question is regarding growth margin. So, how should we think about the growth margin over time, especially after we take off commercial operations? Right, of course, margin. Right now, we are the only company that can provide a product or commercialization. Therefore, we have the pricing power. Even though as we scale up, we will have a leveraging in terms of our procurement. But on the other side, we continue to improve certain features of our 26. So, now that after we get the TC, we still maintain the 26 percent part of the growth margin. That's the concentrating version.

Ting Song: Hello, I'm back to this question.

Speaker Change #145: thank you that's pretty comprehensive and my second question is' regarding gross margin how should we think about the g margin over time specially after we kick off commercial operations

Speaker Change #146: right a coursest margin right now we are the only

Speaker Change #147: company came by product or commercializations therefore we have the pricing power even though as we stillill up we will have a like a leagingin terms of our procurement from the other side will continue to improve

Ting Song: Thank you.

Wang Zhao: Hello, I'm back to this question. Thank you. Here's the English translation. We've been actively extending our plugins in the international market. The study in commercial operations in overseas countries depends on the getting the local regulatory approvals and the certification. Right now, Ehang is working with CAC in advancing bilateral worthness agreement for the validation of the certificate for BTC of the UN216S with other countries' aviation authorities such as UAE, Brazil, Indonesia, and Thailand, etc.

Ting Song: Here's the English translation.

Speaker Change #148: seven pieures of our two and six so then that abutewe get the tc was still enoplysix

Wang Zhao: In terms of the overall name margin, we have achieved just a couple of our second quarter. And as we have seen, that's very, very strong revenue growth. So, we're expecting with the revenue growth rapidly, margin will continue to improve in many years to come.

Speaker Change #148: per cent pth gross margin that be very important in terms of the overall lim margin we have a ship adjusted than coming on our second quarter

Speaker Change #149: and as we have seen that the very very strong er revenue growth so we are expecting

Wang Zhao: The timeline depends on the local regulatory schedule and the progress. And throughout the process, Ehang will actively cooperate and provide a required document to push forward the process. And besides, we have already made a few deliveries to overseas markets like the Middle East and Indonesia and the conducted the demo flights there. And this helps us not only to extend the market to educate the public but also to enhance the communication with local authorities for their recognition of our aircraft and our aircraft's safety features, heading the way for the BTC's education. Thank you. Okay, thank you so much. Appreciate it, the color.

Speaker Change #149: with the revenue gross reapidly but that income margin will continue to improve in many years to have

Ting Song: We've been actively extending our plugins in the international market.

Wang Zhao: In addition, many local governments are planning to build operation networks for future air, mobility.

Speaker Change #158: ions

Wang Zhao: For example, Shenzhen targets to set up a thousand of low-altitude takeoff and landing, platforms, and Guangzhou plans to invest RMB 10 billion into low-altitude infrastructure. This will include over 100 regular-use vertiports and hundreds of community landing pads.

Speaker Change #158: yeah

Sinti Huang: Hi. Thank you for taking my question. So I will get together.

Ting Song: And battery design depends on the E.V, heart.

Huazhi Hu: My first question is about the progress of Ehang obtaining the TC of ET30. As we see that the ET30 and EH216s are in different size and features. So what are the key challenges of ET30 where you develop to compare to the EH216?

Speaker Change #162: qu anything jo i want which that our transgcer hoola isy is ire on the facial own u ageen

Ting Song: So we design our own battery as well as we design our own intermotors and we outsource to the players in China.

Ting Song: Okay.

Conor Yang: And my second question is on the R&D spending. So what's the expectation of R&D[inaudible] I will answer the first question. Thank you. This is the English translation. Leveraging the BD30 prototype, our R&D team is currently redesigning and upgrading our lease and crew's unit model for enhancing the buy performance. And we will keep you updated on this. And we will also submit the TCFB patient for our lease and the crew's model once it's released.

Speaker Change #165: oyour first question beside the hundred al aviation and the hoical aviation s in onejan gen thitan and among other cities are also actively preparing their also application

Speaker Change #166: when the local operators have obtained that t c they will first start operations at our new caartusing one job and the course they look about central park and more times er with a t un ch and starting from the error i think i thinking you cases

Speaker Change #167: and throughout the process we will accumulate operational experience and the continuously refining our operational manu which will serve as a reference when new operators to mitigate their operational risks and certainties

Ting Song: Thank you.

Speaker Change #168: and for the question on the pricing ever if i see is conllate our targeted use cases compared to the hi ops our price can be half of them or even lower is very competitive

Ting Song: Yeah.

Ting Song: Thank you for the color.

Wang Zhao: Our EH216S is ideally suited for future urban air transportation. It's compact, lightweight, can fly autonomously, easy to manage fleets, and cost-effective.

Wang Zhao: In May, we were actively involved in shaping China's first group standard for EVATO vertiports. This will set a state for future industry standards. Notably, all vertiports built in accordance with this standard will be able to accommodate, EH216S.

Speaker Change #169: because the hand two one six s acquisition cost the animment ten is cost is much lower than than a high opure and we don't have piler costs

Ting Song: Yeah.

Wang Zhao: In terms of operation standards and certification, as Mr. Hu mentioned, in July, the CAAC accepted, the Air Operator Certificate, or OCA, applications by two operators. One is Yihang General Aviation, our subsidiary for UAM operations.

Ting Song: Congratulations.

Wang Zhao: Moreover, the local government is offering subsidized for even a wrong operation. For example, in Shenzhen and Jose, they plan to offer subsidized for even operators for aerosol seeing and air transportation within and between cities. And the subsidized range from 100 to 300 RMB per person each flight.

Speaker Change #170: moreover the local government are offering subsidized or even overwrong operation for example in suinggen and clothey they plan to offer subid will even operators for eroriseing and the air transportation within and between cities

Ting Song: Again.

Conor Yang: And since the EH216s now has three required certificates. So our main focus is on its sales and operations. And the EH216s is perfect for the air transportation within the cities because it's compact and does not need large take-off and ending areas. While the BD30 series lease and crew's model is meant to complement our current product portfolio and usage. And it is designed specifically for intercity air transportation. It's a nodule replacement for the EH216s. That is suitable for the air taxi uses within the urban area. Thank you.

Ting Song: Hold the direct card delivery.

Operator: Okay.

Ting Song: Thank you.

Speaker Change #170: and the subsidized range from one hundred to three hundred r and b promance at each flight

Wang Zhao: Thank you. For example, the E1216 acquisition cost and maintenance cost are much lower than the high cost, and maintenance cost are much lower than the high cost. And for your second question, the E1216 acquisition is our wholly owned sensitive rate and serve as the operation platform company to provide operational services to our customers that have demo projects and models. We have established a joint venture with the local government for partners through the E1 general aviation to provide a little operation services such as cooperation with our customer building group in Shenzhen. So our cooperation model will last bit.

Speaker Change #171: thank you

Operator: Now we're going to take up the next question.

Speaker Change #172: well be are one here our shuduty gand es one' your h harong you h sol hic

Wang Zhao: The other is Heyi Aviation, our operation joint venture in Hefei.

Wang Zhao: Afterwards, we will have more customers and partners in applying OC with our accumulated, experience and established safety standard. This will also help expanding our operation network.

Speaker Change #173: interestingwho thinker surethe sevama

Xinran Li: And the next question comes from Lan of Ting Song from Goldman Sachs.

Wang Zhao: In July, we also formed a strategy partnership with China Southern General Aviation, a leading, aviation service provider under the China Southern Airlines Group. Together, we are planning to introduce a range of services, including eVeto tourism, cross-island, flights and cargo transportation at Zhuhai Airport, Qimlong Ocean Kingdom, and surrounding islands.

Wang Zhao: Moreover, we are thrilled to see several local governments, including those in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hefei, and Zhuhai, are offering direct subsidies for eVeto commercial routes. These subsidies range from RMB100 to 300 per passenger per flight, providing robust support, for eVeto service operators.

Wang Zhao: In the international market, we continue to expand into the Middle East market in the, second quarter.

Wang Zhao: In April, we reached a strategy cooperation with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office and a, multilevel group. They will support our development in the UAE and the Middle East region.

Speaker Change #174: do you unple rope high or we you don't each other place or back from the equal to move for me

Xinran Li: Your Lan is open.

Xinran Li: Please ask the question.

Speaker Change #175: these should that go fither for each gyom njim ard you tofrom neither ither

Wang Zhao: In May and June, our EH216S completed debut flights in UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Wang Zhao: Since then, our eVeto footprint has expanded to 16 countries worldwide.

Wang Zhao: In the third quarter, we will continue to expand our business in overseas markets such, as Africa, the Middle East, Central America, and Europe.

Xinran Li: Hi.

Wang Zhao: Looking ahead, we will focus on executing our business strategy on sales and operations, and delivering results consistently.

Wang Zhao: Our goal is to play a key role in commercializing China's low-attitude economy and the global, UAM industry, with safety as our top priority.

Xinran Li: Thank you for taking my question.

Xinran Li: So I will get together.

Conor Yang: This is Connor. I will answer the second question regarding R&D. On the second quarter, R&D expenses about adjusted total arpeggs for the BD60. So going forward, we expect him that the R&D expenses will be around 45 to 50% of our total ups and we are committed to our R&D development. And for example, if you compare the number of first quarter ID expenses, actually we have improved about 42% with R&D expenses for first quarter.

Speaker Change #176: over the cou of counouncers he hun he going so of book joining at the hu jua jes would will on her acation

Speaker Change #177: chisa

Speaker Change #178: and for your second question the hundred general eviation and our holy own sensitiveor and serve as the operation platform company to provide operational servic is tl customers

Conor Yang: And our future R&D efforts will focus on optimizing the EH-216 performance improvement and developing the long-haul EBITOs and other aircraft for both passenger carry as well as today. And that will include expenses on the R&D materials and our R&D gene expansion, test length, and every certificate certification expense. We can say that we believe our growth rate of revenue will be year over year will be a lot higher than overall R&D. So even though we continue to increase our R&D expenses, our R&D expenses, the R&D expenses and the presentation of the revenue will continue to drop in the coming years.

Speaker Change #179: that they have dmo project and the models

Speaker Change #179: we have established the joint ventro is the local government for panders through the eh general aviation to provide bito operation services

Operator: Thank you.

Speaker Change #180: such as coloe aviation inclproveate and the punctionong wind established with our customer boarding go be chang

Wang Zhao: We have provided necessary support, including the after-to-service operational guidance, technical specs, and personnel training. While the government and customers, they are responsible for planning and building infrastructure. The joint infrastructure warms and operational teams and systems to obtain the OC for commercial operations. By working together, we can ensure the safe operations and create a commercial model that can be filled up and replicated and sustained.

Speaker Change #181: so our copperation model will like this e ha provided necessary ist support including the episode services operational guidance technical backs and the personnel training while the government and customers they are responsible or pending at abbuilding infrastructure

Speaker Change #193: we expect mean in the revenue growth in third quarter guid is the thir quarter number one preinion

Connor Yang: I will now highlight some key points.

Speaker Change #194: the fourar three hundred percent on intrase year year and twenty one twenty from quo quarter

Connor Yang: I am pleased to report that our continued diligent execution has led to another quarter, of exceptional financial results in Q2 2024. We exceeded our revenue guidance by over 13%, achieved adjusted net income, and have generated, positive operating cash flow for three consecutive quarters. Notably, our OC application has been formally accepted by CAC, marking a significant step, closer to commercial operations and accelerated growth. Now, let's dive into details of our second quarter results.

Speaker Change #195: at we are covered than our revenue will achieve sued did pro year years and coming importthat

Connor Yang: Total revenue in second quarter were $102 million, representing a significant increase, of 919.6% year-over-year and a 65.3% increase from prior quarter. The increase were primarily driven by higher sales volume of EH216 series products. We delivered 49 units of EH216 series products in second quarter, a significant growth from, 5 units a year earlier and 26 units in first quarter 2024.

Connor Yang: Growth margin remains consistently high at 62.4% in second quarter, up 2.2% from 60.2% in second quarter 2023, and a 0.5% increase from 61.9% in first quarter 2024. The increase were mainly due to changes in revenue mix.

Connor Yang: Our high growth margin continues to underscore our competitive edge in the EVTOL sector.

Connor Yang: In second quarter, our adjusted operating expenses, which are operating expenses excluding, share-based compensation expenses, were $70.6 million, up 21.6% from $58 million in second quarter 2023, and up 29.6% from $54.5 million in the prior quarter. The increase was mainly due to higher sales-related compensations, expansion of sales channel, and increased expenditures on different models of EVTOL aircrafts.

Connor Yang: Second quarter adjusted operating loss was $4.7 million, a notable 90.9% improvement, from $51.3 million in second quarter 2023, and a 62.9% improvement from $12.6 million in first quarter 2024.

Conor Yang: For the area facing market in China, there are over 10,000 units in demand of two and six. And what is applied to transportation purposes in various cities in China, that will not demand what will be even larger. And together with the international demand. And so we believe that we should achieve a very high growth rate for the next three to five years.

Speaker Change #195: and we have same

Speaker Change #196: well now you re pring marke in china there

Speaker Change #197: it will p down the new in main of two andsay and what is apped to transportation purpose the various cities in china that will not de may will be even larger and together with the international demand

Xinran Li: This is the English translation.

Wang Zhao: [inaudible] In the next phase, our focus will be on extending production facilities, accelerating the deliveries of our existing auto-preply and the new orders. And for this year, we will also help our customers to apply OC, setting up a demonstration project in pioneer cities to exemplify evital operations. And in the future, we aim to replicate this operational site and share our experience in more locations in the country. To add on your question of distribution on the geographic mix, the orders, if you recall that the codes called the last year and as well as the first code of this year, our order's revenue contribute around 20 to 25 percent of our total revenue.

Speaker Change #198: so we believe that that we should have achieve a very high grow rate for the next three five year

Conor Yang: Thank you. Okay, thank you. That's very clear.

Speaker Change #199: thank you

Wang Zhao: So my second question lies in the overseas market. So we have noticed that. We have expanded Middle East market recently. So what's your competition like advantage in the market like Middle East? Do you just country's 10 to favor a little more that can fly longer distance? I will give you. in 2016. Sorry, in 2017. In terms of the Air Force identification, we also have an advantage over our peers. The UAE's General Civil Aviation Authority, or GCA, is moving forward a framework agreement with the CAC for mutual recognition of air force identification. We will be conducting some test flights for the GCA within this year.

Speaker Change #200: okay thank you that verycleer so much same question likeing overse market so we have noted that

Xinran Li: Leveraging the BD30 prototype, our R&D team is currently redesigning and upgrading our lease and crew's unit model for enhancing the buy performance.

Xinran Li: And we will keep you updated on this.

Speaker Change #202: better how should it out jum don' should feder evv are esian the depagingin sing atam did the were in juaryy ev over the shopay she me assemday it ohio use

Xinran Li: And we will also submit the TCFB patient for our lease and the crew's model once it's released.

Xinran Li: And since the EH216s now has three required certificates.

Wang Zhao: But since the TRT government is promoting no other day, we are seeing a very rapid growth from an appetite high. So we expect in terms of geographic mix, that will be 90 percent from China for this year and next. And the percentage of the overseas revenue will decrease from last year, even though the international demand is still quite strong. Thank you. Thank you, that's pretty comprehensive.

Xinran Li: So our main focus is on its sales and operations.

Speaker Change #204: since the opattabular she in huge of the wheel should deepefficiency you don't track a low

Speaker Change #207: you madeid the hun on some the bushher one p she co who butatch from her doinguring a shout or human transgumes i requi ia

Wang Zhao: And my second question is regarding growth margin. So, how should we think about the growth margin over time, especially after we take off commercial operations? Right, of course, margin. Right now, we are the only company that can provide a product or commercialization. Therefore, we have the pricing power. Even though as we scale up, we will have a leveraging in terms of our procurement. But on the other side, we continue to improve certain features of our 26.

Speaker Change #208: but that your sy ronefficiencyesis o pattron or that idon't't need to show that at the behind area as a poenton asmship who transal conom jgle in futual

Speaker Change #209: is it

Speaker Change #210: in is the first bas that need to concept test l

Wang Zhao: So, now that after we get the TC, we still maintain the 26 percent part of the growth margin, that's the concentrating version. In terms of the overall name margin, we have achieved just a couple of our second quarter. And as we have seen, that's very, very strong revenue growth. So, we're expecting with the revenue growth rapidly, margin will continue to improve in many years to come. Thank you.

Operator: Now, we're going to take our next question.

Wang Zhao: And in May, we conducted in the first passenger carriage flight in Abu Dhabi, making the first of its kind in the UAE with GCA's approval.

Wang Zhao: It's a very significant milestone that lays the foundation for our future VDC. And Abu Dhabi are planning the UAE infrastructure now, including the body parts and the evidotermilose. We are very confident with the support of our local customers and pandas in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. We can be the first to commercialize evidot operations in the region. And we believe that the flag range is not the key issue for evidose. What really matters is the need of passengers and the fee-specific use cases. We've been seeing growing interest and amount for 860 s in the middle of the market, particularly for the urban air transportation.

Speaker Change #211: It's a very significant milestones that lays the foundation for our future BTC.

Speaker Change #212: That'd be a pending uhm infrastructure now, including the body parts and the EBIT turbulence.

Wrong Eye: And the question comes to the line of Sinti Huang from my apologies, from you, Chen from Highton Security. So, the line is open, please ask the question. Okay, congratulations for the company's business progress. And thank you for taking my question. I have two questions.

Speaker Change #213: We are very confident with the support of our local customers and tenders in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Speaker Change #213: It can be the first to commercialize EBIT of operations in the region.

Speaker Change #214: And we believe that the flight range, it's not a key issue for <unk>.

Wang Zhao: The first one is that the management can provide some insight into the company's plan for next to 16th operation, including the planning sites, social networks, and Highton strategies for each flight, from studying commercial operations. My second question is, we notice that the company is actively promoting the establishment of UAM operation sites and personnel training, as well as various sources. What is your current operation, cooperation model with local governments or customers? [inaudible] Thank you very much.

Speaker Change #215: What really matters is still needed meet needs of our passengers and a feed the specifics.

Speaker Change #216: Would we see would be.

Speaker Change #216: We're seeing growing interest and demand for our <unk> hundred 60.

Speaker Change #216: Yes.

Speaker Change #216: Middle East market, particularly for the urban Air Transportation.

Wang Zhao: And we will be introduced to a new type of aircraft to serve for more advertising.

Speaker Change #216: And we will introduce a new type of aircraft Tricia Moore that works fine.

Xinran Li: And the EH216s is perfect for the air transportation within the cities because it's compact and does not need large take-off and ending areas.

Guareth Zhao: Thank you. Excuse me, Gareth. Any further questions?

Speaker Change #217: Thank you.

Speaker Change #218: Excuse me guide with any further questions.

Wang Zhao: I will answer the first question. Regarding your question, besides the cooperation and cooperation of the UAM operation sites and personnel training sites and personnel training sites and personnel training sites and personnel training sites,[inaudible] because the 116th acquisition cost and maintenance cost is much lower than the high cost and we don't have pilot cost. Moreover, the local government are offering subsidized for even a wrong operation. For example, in Xinjiang and Huazhi, they plan to offer subsidized for even operators for aerosol seeing and air transportation within and between cities and the subsidized range from 100 to 300 RMB per person each flight. Thank you.

Speaker Change #225: So I mean, we kept state expansion plans underway in Guangzhou.

Xinran Li: And it is designed specifically for intercity air transportation.

Conor Yang: And right now, with the revenue growth and consistent possible cash reform operations, we decide not to continue selling ADS under the ATM program for this year. And we're always looking for the best financing strategy, and also to optimize our capital structure to help the company to build this strategy, and also to drive off this as well. Okay, thank you.

Connor Yang: The proceeds already raised will fill the next phase of our development and growth strategy, aforementioned by Mr. Hu, including R&D for next-generation Evito technologies and products, team and product expansions, new headquarters in Guangzhou, upcoming commercial operations, and other business purposes. With the EH216-S having secured three certificates and our OC applications accepted by CAC, we, are well-positioned to commence commercial operations, setting the stage for a new phase of growth.

Connor Yang: We expect total revenue for the third quarter of 2024 to be around $123 million, representing, an increase of 329.8% year-over-year and 20.6% quarter-over-quarter. Having achieved positive operating cash flow for the third consecutive quarter and adjusted, net income in second quarter, we are confident that this upward trend will continue and ultimately lead to full-year positive cash flow in 2024 and foreseeable adjusted net income in 2025.

Connor Yang: That concludes our prepared remarks.

Operator: So my first question is thinking about the timeline of commercial operation to oversee, markets, when would you expect to start that?

Operator: Is that 2025 realistic?

Operator: Hello, I'll answer this question.

Operator: We have been actively promoting overseas markets, but the premise of overseas commercial operations, is to obtain local supervision, permission and certification. At present, we are cooperating with the Chinese Civil Aviation Bureau to promote, pilot certification in countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Brazil, India and Thailand, as well as the R16 VTC. Time depends on the progress of the projects of each country's supervisor. So in this process, the Bureau will actively cooperate and provide relevant materials, and promote them with full authority in accordance with the requirements of the local authorities.

Operator: Now we'll go and take our next question.

Operator: And the next question comes from Lan of Ting Song from Goldman Sachs.

Operator: Your line is open, please ask your question.

Operator: Hi, thank you for taking my question.

Operator: Here I have two questions.

Operator: So I will ask it together.

Operator: So, for the first, so, I mean, with the cap state expansion plans underway in Guangzhou, Hefei, and other locations, so, could management provide more insight into its, you know, its cap state expansion plans and what can we expect in terms of the capital expenditure over the next two years?

Operator: My first question is about the progress of Ehang obtaining the TC of VT30.

Operator: So, that's my first question.

Operator: As we see that the VT30, and EH216 are in different size and features.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: So what are the key challenges of VT30 when you develop compared to the EH216?

Operator: Yes.

Operator: And my second question is on the R&D spending.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: So what's your expectation of R&D spending in the next three years?

Operator: You know, in our current Yunfu facilities, we plan to do more automation.

Operator: We appreciate your interest and look forward, to our next earnings call.

Operator: And what would be your key focus on the R&D investment?

Operator: As you know, we have signed a strategic agreement partnership with GAC, and they have lots of, experience in automation, in supply chain management.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Will you spend more on the new model or the enhancement of the existing model?

Operator: So, in Guangdong province, we will improve the automation in Yunfu factory, the current, one, as well as we plan to build new facilities in Guangzhou together with GAC.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: And on the other side, that Hefei will build the assembly plant, that's our plan.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: So, overall, in the next year, we should add some additional 1,000 annual production, for next year.

Operator: This is the English translation.

Operator: In terms of CAPEX, we're re-innovating our new headquarters, we're building a lot of facilities, we're building our R&D labs, also building a test supply center, and together with all these factory expansion. So we are expecting, now expect, the CAPEX for 2024 will be about US dollar 15 million, and CAPEX for 2025 will be around 20 million US dollars.

Operator: Leveraging the VT30 prototype, our R&D team is currently, redesigning and upgrading our lease and crew dividend model. We're enhancing the performance.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: And we will keep you updated on this.

Operator: Okay, thank you for your answers.

Ann: To our next earnings call. Thank you.

Operator: And we will also submit the TC application, for our lease and crew model once it's released.

Operator: And my second question is, could Mattamon provide more information, on recent ATM financing, and as companies, financing plans for the future?

Operator: And since the EH216S now has three required certificates, so our main focus is on its sales and operations. And the EH216S is perfect for the air transportation within the city because it is compact and it does not need large takeoff and landing areas.

Operator: Okay, thank you.

Operator: While the VT30 series lease and crew model is meant to complement our current product portfolio and use cases. And it is designed specifically for intercity air transportation.

Operator: Since April, we have raised US dollars 76.2 million US dollars to our, ATM program without disturbing the market. Our average price actually for all this 76 million average price is 16.5 US dollars per share.

Operator: It's not a replacement for the EH216S.

Operator: And right now with the rapid revenue growth and consistent positive cash flow from operations, we decide not to continue selling ADS under the ATM program for this year.

Operator: That is suitable for the air taxi uses within the urban area.

Operator: And we're always looking for the best financing, strategy and also to optimize our capital structure to help the company to build a strategy and also to drive our business growth.

Operator: That has concluded our conference for today. Thank you for participating. You may now all disconnect. Have a nice day.

Operator: That does conclude our conference for today.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Okay, thank you.

Speaker Change #239: That does conclude our conference for today. Thank you for participating you may now all disconnect have a nice day.

Operator: Thank you for participating.

Operator: Okay.

Operator: Okay, thank you Matt for your answer and congratulations again for the company.

Operator: You may now disconnect.

Operator: This is Connor.

Operator: So thank you.

Conor Yang: [inaudible] I'm looking forward to how do you view the company's revenue growth trajectory? Thank you for your question. This is Carmen. We have three orders, over one thousand units in China. And our production has been revenue up to 50,000 people. We have three effective revenue growth in the third quarter. The third quarter is 123. That's more than 300%. We have three over here. And 20 over there are 20% of the total.

Operator: I'll answer the second question regarding R&D.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: On the second quarter, R&D expenses is about adjusted total APEX of $46,000.

Operator: Have a nice day.

Operator: Thank you all.

Operator: So going forward, we expect that the R&D expenses will be around 45 to 50% of our total APEX.

Operator: Given the time is limited, let me turn the call back to Ms. An for closing, remarks.

Operator: And we are committed to our R&D development.

Operator: Thank you, operator.

Operator: And for example, if you compare the number of first quarter R&D expenses, actually we, have increased about 42% with R&D expenses for first quarter.

Operator: Thank you all for participating in our today's call.

Operator: And our future R&D efforts will focus on optimizing the EH216 performance improvement and developing, the long-haul eVTOLs and other aircrafts for both passenger carry as well as transport. And that will include expenses on the R&D materials and our R&D team expansion, test, flights, and airworthiness certification expenses.

Operator: If you have further questions, please contact our IR team by email or participating in the following investor events through the Canada information provided on our IR website.

Operator: Having said that, we believe our growth rate of revenue year-over-year will be a lot higher, than overall APEX.

Operator: So even though we continue to increase our R&D expenses, the R&D expenses, a percentage, of the revenue will continue to drop in the coming years.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Now we're going to take our next question.

Speaker Change #239: Okay.

Operator: And the next question comes from the line of Cindy Hwan from Morgan Stanley.

Operator: Your line is open.

Speaker Change #239: [music].

Operator: Please ask your question.

Operator: Thanks for taking my question and congratulations on remarkable QQ results.

Operator: My first question is regarding your order backlog.

Operator: I see EHON has made significant progress in securing new orders.

Operator: Could you give us a quick update on how many purchase orders we have on hand and when they, will be delivered?

Operator: And also, could we have a rough idea on geographic mix in terms of the order backlog?

Operator: So that's my first question.

Speaker Change #239: Yes.

Operator: Thank you.

Speaker Change #239: [music].

Operator: So in the next phase, we will focus on building new factories, speeding up delivery, and increasing, the order backlog.

Operator: This year, we are trying to create an operating model in the vanguard city.

Operator: We are applying for an operating license.

Operator: We want to make sure that the EH216S operating system really lands at the operating point.

Operator: In the future, we will be able to replicate the experience of the operating point in more, places in China.

Operator: At the same time, we want to increase the growth of orders.

Operator: Currently, our orders and the pre-orders has over 1,100 units in China market. We plan to deliver this by batches over the next 1 to 3 years per our customers' request, and their business development and the pace of their placing orders.

Operator: We are getting more and more new customers and orders. So we expect deliveries to keep growing.

Operator: In the next phase, our focus will be on expanding production facilities, accelerating the deliveries, of our existing order pipeline and the new orders.

Operator: And for this year, we will also help our customers to apply OCs, setting up demonstration projects, in pioneer cities to exemplify eval operations. And in the future, we aim to replicate these operational sites and share our experience, in more locations around the country.

Operator: To add on your question about distribution on the geographic mix, the orders, if you, recall that fourth quarter last year, and as well as the first quarter this year, our overseas order revenue contributed about 20 to 25% of our total revenue.

Operator: But since the PRC government is promoting no other delivery, we're seeing a very rapid, growth for the time.

Operator: So we're expecting that in terms of geographic mix, that will be 90% from China for this, year and next.

Operator: And the percentage of the overseas revenue will decrease from last year, even though, the international demand is still quite strong.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: That's pretty comprehensive.

Operator: And my second question is regarding gross margin.

Operator: So how should we think about the gross margin over time, especially after we take off commercial, operations?

Operator: Right.

Operator: A gross margin, right now, we are the only company that can provide a product for commercialization.

Operator: Therefore, we have the pricing power, even though as we scale up, we will have like a, leverage in terms of procurement.

Operator: But on the other side, we'll continue to improve certain features of our 216.

Operator: And then after we get the TC, we'll still maintain a 6% plus gross margin.

Operator: That's because in terms of the overall net margin, we have a chip adjusted from second, quarter.

Operator: And as we have seen that the very, very strong revenue growth, so we're expecting with the, revenue growth rapidly, the net income margin will continue to improve in the many years to come.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Now we're going to take our next question.

Operator: The question comes from Cindy Huang from, my apologies, from Yu Cheng from Hightone, Securities.

Operator: Your line is open.

Operator: Please ask your question.

Operator: Okay.

Operator: Congratulations for the company's great business progress, and thank you for taking my question.

Operator: I have two questions.

Operator: The first one is could the management team provide some insight into the company's plans, for EH216 operations, including the planned flight commercials and pricing schedules for each flight once starting a commercial operation?

Operator: My second question is, we noticed that the company is actively promoting the establishment of UAM operation sites and personnel training across various places.

Operator: What is your current operation cooperation model with local governments or customers?

Operator: 簡單翻譯一下我的問題,是有兩個。 首先,第一個是,EH216Expo是將會落地運營的航點航線和定價儀式。 第二個問題是,公司也在積極推進各個地方的UAM運營網點建設和人員培訓。 那麼目前各地的運營合作模式是怎麼樣的?

Operator: 非常感謝管理層。 我現在回答第一個問題。 關於你這個問題,除了一航通航和合意航空之外,一航智能在廣州、深圳、太原、無錫等地的合作夥伴也在同步籌備,積極推進OC的審定申請。 各地的運營主體OC落地之後,會率先在廣州、一航的新總部、合肥、洛港、中原公園、還有深圳、無錫、太原、文成等地開展運營工作。 會率先聚焦空中觀光遊覽的應用場景,過程中積累運營經驗並不斷完善運營手冊,供後續新成立的運營主體來參考,降低風險和難度。 關於定價,我們目前的主要應用場景是空中遊覽以及以前常用的飛行工具是直升機,所以我們可以用直升機的票價來進行對比。 我們的定價將非常有競爭力,是直升機的一半甚至更低,因為EH216S的購買價格比直升機低很多,而且沒有飛行員雇用的成本。 電動化的結構維保價格也比直升機要低,所以競技效益會更好。 加之各地政府陸續出台EVITO運營航線的補貼力度很大,比如深圳和合肥。對於EVITO運營空中遊覽、室內交通、城際交通等每人每加次補貼100至300元不等。 Because the Ehang-216F acquisition cost and maintenance cost is much lower than the helicopter, and we don't have pilot cost.

Operator: Moreover, the local governments are offering subsidized for e-vehicle round operations.

Operator: For example, in Shenzhen and Hefei, they plan to offer subsidized for e-vehicle operators, for LSIC and air transportation within and between cities.

Operator: And the subsidized range from 100 to 300 RMB per person for each flight.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: For the second question, Ehang Holdings, a full-fledged subsidiary established by Ehang, serves as an operating platform company to provide services to customers and set up an operating demo version. Based on the Ehang Holdings platform, we have established joint operations with government-owned companies or partners, such as Hefei's Heyi Intelligence and Shenzhen Boling Group.

Operator: Our cooperation method is to provide social services, professional management, technical specifications and team training to Ehang.

Operator: Governments and clients are responsible for the planning and construction of infrastructure.

Operator: Joint operations companies form an operating team and form an operating system, and obtain OCs to carry out commercial operations.

Operator: Through multilateral cooperation, Ehang Holdings can operate safely and scale up, replicate and continue commercial operations in the future.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Thank you for your answers.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Now we're going to take our next question.

Operator: Just give us a moment.

Operator: And the next question comes to the line of Gareth Zhao from TF3.

Operator: Gareth, thank you so much for your answer.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: The next question comes to the line of Gareth Zhao from TF Security.

Operator: Your line is open.

Operator: Please ask your question.

Operator: Okay.

Operator: So congratulations on the outstanding performance this quarter.

Operator: I have two questions.

Operator: The first one is that, so do you expect to maintain the growth trend?

Operator: Great.

Operator: So our guidance for the third quarter is 123 million. That's more than 300% increase year-over-year, and more than 20% growth quarter-over-quarter. We are confident that our revenue will achieve triple-digit growth year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter.

Operator: And we expect, for the REO Sightseeing Mark in China, there are over 10,000 units in demand of 216.

Operator: And when it's applied to, transportation purpose in various cities in China, that demand will be even larger, together with the international demand.

Operator: So we believe that we should achieve a very high growth rate for the next three to five years.

Operator: That's very clear.

Operator: So my second question lies in the overseas market.

Operator: So we have noticed that you have expanding Middle East market recently.

Operator: So what's your competition, like advantage in the market like Middle East?

Operator: Do these countries tend to favor e-vehicle models that can fly longer distance?

Operator: Well, e-vehicle is never a problem.

Operator: The key is to meet the needs of customers and passengers, and the application scenario.

Operator: In addition, with the addition of new models of aircraft, we have received increasing interest and application needs for E-Vehicle 216S in the Middle East.

Operator: The UAE's General Civil Aviation Authority, or GCAA, is moving forward a framework agreement, with CAC for mutual recognition of Airworthiness Certification.

Operator: We will be conducting some test flights for the GCAA within this year.

Operator: And in May, we conducted the first passenger carrier flight in Abu Dhabi, making the first, of its kind in the UAE with GCAA's approval.

Operator: It's a very significant milestone that lays the foundation for our future VTCs.

Operator: In Abu Dhabi, we are planning UAE infrastructure now, including the vertiports and the EVETO, terminals.

Operator: We are very confident with the support of our local customers and partners in the UAE, and Saudi Arabia, we can be the first to commercialize EVETO operations in the region.

Operator: And we believe that the flight range is not a key issue for EVETOs.

Operator: What really matters is to meet the needs of the passengers and to feed the specific, use cases.

Operator: We've been seeing growing interest and demand for our Yehan 260S in the Middle East market, particularly for the urban air transportation.

Operator: And we will be introducing a new type of aircraft to serve for more diversified needs.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Excuse me, Gareth, any further questions?

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Now we're going to take our next question.

Operator: And the question comes from the line of Rongai and Zhou from CITIC Security.

Operator: Your line is open.

For the area facing market in China, there are over 10,000 units in demand of two and six.

And so we believe that we should achieve a very high growth rate for the next three to five years. Thank you.

Operator: Okay, thank you. That's very clear.

Xinran Li: That is suitable for the air taxi uses within the urban area.

Xinran Li: Thank you.

Xinran Li: Okay.

Conor Yang: This is Connor.

Conor Yang: I will answer the second question regarding R&D.

Wang Zhao: So my second question lies in the overseas market. So we have noticed that. We have expanded Middle East market recently. So what's your competition like advantage in the market like Middle East? Do you just country's 10 to favor a little more that can fly longer distance? [inaudible] in 2016. Sorry, in 2017. In terms of the air force identification, we also have an advantage over our peers. The UAE's General Civil Aviation Authority, or GCA, is moving forward a framework agreement with the CAC, for mutual recognition of air force identification.

Conor Yang: On the second quarter, R&D expenses about adjusted total arpeggs for the BD60.

Wang Zhao: We will be conducting some test flights for the GCA within this year. And in May, we conducted in the first passenger carriage flight in Abu Dhabi, making the first of its kind in the UAE with GCA's approval. It's a very significant milestone that lays the foundation for our future VDC. And Abu Dhabi are planning the UAE infrastructure now, including the body parts and the evidotermilose. We are very confident with the support of our local customers and pandas in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Wang Zhao: We can be the first to commercialize evidot operations in the region. And we believe that the flag range is not the key issue for evidose. What really matters is the need of passengers and the fee-specific use cases. We've been seeing growing interest and amount for 860 s in the middle of the market, particularly for the urban air transportation. And we will be introduced a new type of aircraft to serve for more advertising.

Operator: Thank you.

Operator: Excuse me, Gareth, any further questions? Thank you.

Wrong Eye: Now we're going to take over the next question. And the question comes with a line of wrong eye and show from CTX security. Your line is open.

Wang Zhao: Please ask a question. Okay. Thank you. So first, congratulations on the company's strong performance and business progress. Here I have two questions. So for the first, so I mean with the cap state expansion plans under the Guangzhou, Hubei, and other locations. So could the management provide more insight into its cap state expansion plans and what can we expect in terms of the capital expenditure over the next two years? So it's my first question.

Wang Zhao: Thank you. Yes. Thank you. You know, we in our current meaningful facilities, we plan to do more automation. As you know, we have signed a strategic agreement partnership with GAC and they have a lot of experience in automation and supply chain management. So in Guangdong province, we will improve the automation in youthful factory, the current one, as well as we plan to build a new facility in Guangzhou together with GAC. And on the other side, that Hubei will build a assembly plan, that's our plan.

Wang Zhao: So overall, in the next year, we should add down additional 1000 and your production, for next year. In terms of CAPEX, we're building our network that we're innovating our new headquarters, we're building lots of facilities, we're building our R&B labs, also building a test apply center, and together with all these factory expansion. So we expect now expect the CAPEX for 2024 will be about US$15 million, and CAPEX for 2025 will be around $20 million US dollars. Thank you.

Conor Yang: So going forward, we expect him that the R&D expenses will be around 45 to 50% of our total ups and we are committed to our R&D development.

Conor Yang: Okay, thank you for your answers, and my second question is, could the company's finance plans for the future? Okay, thank you. Since April, we have raised US$76.2 million US$22, our ATM program, without disturbing the market, our average price actually for all this $76 million average price is $16.5 US$12 per share. And right now with the revenue growth and consistent possible cash reform operations, we decide not to continue selling ADS under the ATM program for this year.

Conor Yang: And for example, if you compare the number of first quarter ID expenses, actually we have improved about 42% with R&D expenses for first quarter.

Conor Yang: And our future R&D efforts will focus on optimizing the EH-216 performance improvement and developing the long-haul EBITOs and other aircraft for both passenger carry as well as today.

Conor Yang: And that will include expenses on the R&D materials and our R&D gene expansion, test length, and every certificate certification expense.

Conor Yang: And we're always looking for the best financing strategy, and also the optimize our capital structure to help the company to build this strategy, and also to drive off this as well. Okay, thank you. Okay, thank you for your answer, and congratulations again for the company, and so thank you. Thank you. Thank you all.

Conor Yang: We can say that we believe our growth rate of revenue will be year over year will be a lot higher than overall R&D.

Conor Yang: So even though we continue to increase our R&D expenses, our R&D expenses, the R&D expenses and the presentation of the revenue will continue to drop in the coming years.

Conor Yang: Thank you.

Operator: Now we're going to take over the next question.

Cindy Huang: And the next question comes to the land of Sinti Juan from Morgan Stanley.

Cindy Huang: And in the future, we aim to replicate this operational site and share our experience in more locations in the country.

Cindy Huang: To add on your question of distribution on the geographic mix, the orders, if you recall that the codes called the last year and as well as the first code of this year, our order's revenue contribute around 20 to 25 percent of our total revenue.

Cindy Huang: But since the TRT government is promoting no other day, we are seeing a very rapid growth from an appetite high.

Cindy Huang: So we expect in terms of geographic mix, that will be 90 percent from China for this year and next.

Cindy Huang: And the percentage of the overseas revenue will decrease from last year, even though the international demand is still quite strong.

Cindy Huang: Thank you.

Cindy Huang: Thank you, that's pretty comprehensive.

Cindy Huang: And my second question is regarding growth margin.

Cindy Huang: So, how should we think about the growth margin over time, especially after we take off commercial operations?

Cindy Huang: Right, of course, margin.

Cindy Huang: Right now, we are the only company that can provide a product or commercialization. Therefore, we have the pricing power.

Cindy Huang: Even though as we scale up, we will have a leveraging in terms of our procurement.

Cindy Huang: But on the other side, we continue to improve certain features of our 26.

Cindy Huang: So, now that after we get the TC, we still maintain the 26 percent part of the growth margin, that's the concentrating version.

Cindy Huang: In terms of the overall name margin, we have achieved just a couple of our second quarter.

Cindy Huang: And as we have seen, that's very, very strong revenue growth.
