FF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Inc. reported its third-quarter 2026 financial results on November 12, 2026, detailing $2.3 million in nine-month standalone revenue for the robotics business it acquired from Faraday Future on October 23.
Acquisition details and leadership changes
On October 23, FFR completed its acquisition of the robotics business of Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. as transaction consideration, FFR issued common shares and non-voting convertible preferred shares.
Following the acquisition, FFR finalized executive and board changes. YT Jia serves as Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Wang as Executive Chairman, Chen Shi as Lead Independent Director, and Jason E. Dodier as an independent director.
Financial results and unit shipments
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the acquired robotics business recorded approximately $2.3 million in unaudited standalone combined revenue and $593,000 in gross profit, yielding a gross margin of approximately 26%. Research and development expenses accounted for 26.2% of total operating expenses.
Because the deal closed after the third quarter ended, these figures are not included in FFR's consolidated financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The company stated the acquired robotics business had no outstanding borrowings or convertible debt as of September 30.
FFR reported that robot sales and shipments reached 351 units in October 2026, bringing cumulative sales and shipments to 1,168 units through the end of October.
Future outlook and expansion plans
FFR reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance for the acquired business on a standalone basis, expecting approximately 2,000 robots sold and shipped with positive unit gross margins.
The company plans to launch a 100-city robotics education initiative, expand its RoboShare platform into Chicago and Dallas in early 2027, and produce its first U.S.-manufactured robot device at an FFR factory in the first quarter of 2027.
