Monitor the trajectory of the AI infrastructure services segment (currently $1.5M) and whether it can achieve positive gross margins, as the core EV business margin is declining. The significant share dilution (57% increase in share count) and negative operating cash flow warrant close attention to the company's capital needs.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
LOBO reported H1 2026 revenue of $14.6M (+20.6% YoY) and a net loss of $1.1M, narrowing from a $2.6M loss in H1 2025. The core EV business grew 8.2% while a new AI infrastructure services segment contributed $1.5M, but gross margin compressed from 16.1% to 13.2% and operating cash flow worsened to -$3.7M. The loss-per-share improvement from -$0.28 to -$0.07 is largely mechanical due to a 57% increase in weighted average shares outstanding.
