CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report ("Report") contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about future financial and operating results, our objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations, products and services; and other statements identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “outlook” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology intended to identify statements about the future. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our industry and market sizes, and future opportunities for us. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
In addition to factors identified elsewhere in this Report, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:
• changes in the highly competitive market in which we compete, including with respect to our competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes;
• risk that we may not be able to execute our growth strategies or achieve profitability;
• risks of operations in China;
• the impact of inflation and rising interest rates;
• changes in availability and price of raw materials;
• changes in the markets that we target;
• heightened awareness of environmental issues and concern about global warming and climate change;
• risk that we are unable to secure or protect our intellectual property;
• risk that our customers or third-party suppliers are unable to meet their obligations fully or in a timely manner;
• risk that our customers will adjust, cancel or suspend their orders for our products;
• risk that we will need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all;
• risk of product liability or regulatory lawsuits or proceedings relating to our products or services;
• risk of any cyber security threat or event and the effectiveness of our information technology systems to detect and defend against cyber attacks;
• economic, financial and other impacts of public health crises, including pandemics (such as COVID-19) and epidemics and any related company or government policies or actions; and
• the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and the latest conflicts between Israel and Hamas, acts of terrorism, other catastrophic events and any restrictive actions that have been or may be taken by the U.S. and/or other countries in response thereto, such as sanctions or export controls.
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and new factors may emerge from time to time that could also affect actual performance and results. For more information, please see the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 in Part I, Item 1A.
ii
Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2023
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data, or as otherwise noted)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Microvast, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas in the United States of America on October 12, 2006 and re-domiciled to the State of Delaware on December 31, 2015. On July 23, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Microvast, Inc. and Tuscan Holdings Corp.(“Tuscan”) consummated the previously announced merger (the “Merger” or the "Business Combination"), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated February 1, 2021, between Tuscan, Microvast, Inc. and TSCN Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Sub merged with and into Microvast, Inc., with Microvast, Inc. surviving the Merger. As a result of the Merger, Tuscan was renamed “Microvast Holdings, Inc.” (the “Company”). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as Microvast, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquirer under Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).

The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) are primarily engaged in developing, manufacturing, and selling electronic power products for electric vehicles and energy storage across the globe.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation and use of estimates
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Security and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and U.S. generally accepted accounting standards (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted from these interim financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023, which provides a more complete discussion of the Company’s accounting policies and certain other information. In the opinion of the management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of financial results for the interim periods presented. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
The financial information as of December 31, 2022 included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets is derived from the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had working capital of $ 67,520 , a shareholders’ equity of $ 567,338 , including an accumulated deficit of $ 872,965 . For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred losses amounting to $ 81,821 and generated negative cash flows from operating activities amounting to $ 70,350 . For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred losses amounting to $ 158,200 and generated negative cash flows from operating activities amounting to $ 53,928 . The Company believes that it will have adequate sources of liquidity and capital resources to fund our operating and investing activities at least for the next twelve months as a result of among others, the below factors:

• As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a backlog of approximately $ 678,681 and with the completion of its Huzhou Phase 3.1 2GWh cell, module and pack production line, the Company has the capacity to meet growing demand, especially for its 53.5Ah cell technology;

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued


• The Company has approximately $ 70,364 (RMB 500 million) available to drawdown under its $ 111,483 (RMB 800 million) project finance loan that it entered into on September 27, 2022, and with the extension of the availability period under this loan to June 9, 2024, the Company has funding in place to support further expansions in capacity at the Huzhou facility.

• The Company has $ 240,655 property, plant and equipment in the United States and no borrowing has been incurred, so far, for its operations in the United States. With this growing asset base, the Company is considering new debt financing to support its expansion plans in the United States and is currently in negotiations with lenders.
There have been no significant changes to the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022.
Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group’s financial statements include allowance for credit losses, provision for obsolete inventories, impairment of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, product warranty, fair value measurement of warrant liability and share based compensation.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company

Pursuant to the JOBS Act, an emerging growth company (the “EGC”) may adopt new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by FASB or the SEC either (i) within the same periods as those otherwise applicable to non-EGCs or (ii) within the same time periods as private companies. The Company intends to take advantage of the exemption for complying with new or revised accounting standards within the same time periods as private companies. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information provided by other public companies.

The Company also intends to take advantage of some of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements of EGCs pursuant to the JOBS Act so long as the Company qualifies as an EGC, including, but not limited to, an exemption from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, and exemptions from the requirements of holding non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation and golden parachute payments.
Revenue recognition
Nature of Goods and Services
The Group’s revenue consists primarily of sales of lithium-ion batteries. The obligation of the Group is to provide the battery products. Revenue is recognized at the point of time when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services.

Disaggregation of revenue
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Group derived revenues from geographic regions as follows:

Total $ 38,616 $ 80,116 $ 139,698 $ 202,042
Contract balances
Contract balances include accounts receivable and advances from customers. Accounts receivable represent cash not received from customers and are recorded when the rights to consideration are unconditional. The allowance for credit losses reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent to the accounts receivable balance. Contract liabilities, recorded in advance from customers in the consolidated balance sheets, represent payment received in advance or payment received related to a material right provided to a customer to acquire additional goods or services at a discount in a future period. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Group recognized $ 722 and $ 1,191 of revenue previously included in advance from customers as of July 1, 2022 and July 1, 2023, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Group recognized $ 550 and $ 2,485 of revenue previously included in advance from customers as of January 1, 2022 and January 1, 2023, respectively.

Share-based compensation
Share-based payment transactions with employees are measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity instrument and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, with a corresponding impact reflected in additional paid-in capital.
For share-based awards granted with a performance condition, the compensation cost is recognized when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The Company reassesses the probability of achieving the performance condition at the end of each reporting date and records a cumulative catch-up adjustment for any changes to its assessment. For performance-based awards with a market condition, such as awards using total shareholder return (“TSR”) as a performance metric, compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated service period of the award, regardless of whether the market condition is satisfied. Liability-classified awards are remeasured at their fair-value-based measurement as of each reporting date until settlement. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease     or contains a lease at lease inception. Operating leases are required to record in the statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company also elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. Lastly, for lease assets other than real estate, such as printing machines and electronic appliances, the Company elected the short-term lease exemption as their lease terms are 12 months or less.

As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated in a portfolio approach to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments in a similar economic environment. Lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Warrant Liability
The Company accounts for warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. As the Private Warrants (as defined in Note 11 – Warrants) meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the Company classifies the Private Warrants as liabilities. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the condensed statements of operations. The Private Warrants are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model on the basis of the quoted market price of Public Warrants (as defined in Note 11 – Warrants).

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. For SEC filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2020-06 may have on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On December 29, 2018, Microvast Power Systems Co., Ltd.('MPS'), one of the Company's subsidiaries, signed an agreement with Huzhou Saiyuan, an entity established by the local government, to issue convertible bonds to Huzhou Saiyuan for a total consideration of $ 87,776 (RMB 600 million). The Company pledged its 12.39 % equity holding over MPS to Huzhou Saiyuan to facilitate the issuance of these convertible bonds.
If the subscribed bonds are not repaid by the maturity date, Huzhou Saiyuan has the right to dispose of the equity interests pledged by the Company in proportion to the amount of matured bonds, or convert the bonds into equity interests of MPS within 60 days after the maturity date. If Huzhou Saiyuan decides to convert the bonds into equity interests of MPS, the equity interests pledged would be released and the convertible bonds would be converted into equity interest of MPS based on an entity value of MPS of $ 950,000 .

In September 2020 and 2022, MPS entered into two supplement agreements with Huzhou Saiyuan, respectively, to change the repayment schedule as follows: (i) $ 14,629 (RMB 100 million) was repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before November 10, 2022, (ii) $ 14,630 (RMB 100 million) was repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before December 31, 2022, and (iii) the remaining $ 43,888 (RMB 300 million) will be repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before January 31, 2027. The applicable interest rate will be increased to 12 % if the Group is in default on the repayment of the bonds at the due date. The remaining terms and conditions of the convertible bonds were unchanged. The Company has complied in full with the amended repayment schedule and accordingly, as of September 30, 2023, the subscription and outstanding balance of the convertible bonds was $ 43,888 (RMB 300 million).

NOTE 11. WARRANTS

The Company assumed 27,600,000 publicly-traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) and 837,000 private placement warrants issued to Tuscan Holdings Acquisition LLC (the “Sponsor”) and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (“EarlyBirdCapital”) (“Private Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) upon the Business Combination, all of which were issued in connection with Tuscan’s initial public offering (other than 150,000 Private Warrants that were issued in connection with the closing of the Business Combination) and entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per share. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, none of the Public Warrants or the Private Warrants were exercised.

The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. The Public Warrants are only exercisable for cash, however, if the Company were to not maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, the Public Warrants would be exercisable on a net-share settlement basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
• in whole and not in part;
• at a price of $ 0.01 per warrant;
• upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
• if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds $ 18.00 per share for any 20 -trading days within a 30 -trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
• if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants.

The Company classified the Public Warrants as equity. If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a net-share settlement basis.
The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Warrants will be exercisable for cash or on a net-share settlement basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. In addition, so long as the Private Warrants are held by EarlyBirdCapital and its designee, the Private Warrants will expire five years from the effective date of the Business Combination.
The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrants.
The private warrant liability was remeasured at fair value as of September 30, 2023, resulting in a loss of $ 42 and $ 25 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, classified within changes in fair value of warrant liability in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, respectively.

NOTE 11. WARRANTS - continued

The Private Warrants were valued using the following assumptions under the Monte Carlo Model that assumes optimal exercise of the Company’s redemption option at the earliest possible date:
September 30,
2023
Market price of public stock $ 1.89
Exercise price $ 11.50
Expected term (years) 2.82
Volatility 72.71 %
Risk-free interest rate 4.71 %
Dividend rate 0.00 %
The market price of public stock is the quoted market price of the Company’s Common Stock as of the valuation date. The exercise price is extracted from the warrant agreements. The expected term is derived from the exercisable years based on the warrant agreements. The expected volatility is a blend of implied volatility from the Company’s own public warrant pricing, the average volatility of peer companies and the Company's historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the market yield of US Government Bond with maturity close to the expected term of the warrants. The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the warrants.
NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
Measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis
The Group measured its financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and warrant liability at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on the quoted market price in an active market. The fair value of the warrant liability is based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. In determining the fair value of the warrant liability, the Company used the Monte Carlo Model that assumes optimal exercise of the Company’s redemption option at the earliest possible date. See Note 11 – Warrants.
As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, information about inputs for the fair value measurements of the Group’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition is as follows:

NOTE 14. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT

On July 21, 2021, the Company adopted the Microvast Holdings, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), effective upon the Closing Date. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock option, restricted stock units, restricted share awards, stock appreciation awards, and cash-based awards to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. Options awarded under the 2021 Plan expire no more than 10 years from the date of grant. Concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the share awards granted under 2012 Share Incentive Plan of Microvast, Inc. (the “2012 Plan”) were rolled over by removing original performance conditions and converting into options and capped non-vested share units with modified vesting schedules, using the Common Exchange Ratio of 160.3 . The 2021 Plan reserved 5 % of the fully-diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Closing Date plus the shares underlying awards rolled over from the 2012 Plan for issuance in accordance with the 2021 Plan’s terms.

Stock options
The grant and modification date fair value of the stock options was determined using the Black Scholes model with the following assumptions:
Nine months ended September 30, 2023
Exercise price $ 1.21 ~ $ 6.28
Expected terms (years) 0.25 ~ 6.00
Volatility 55.59 % ~ 86.83 %
Risk-free interest rate 3.48 % ~ 5.38 %
Expected dividend yields 0.00 %
Fair value of options granted $ 0.005 ~ $ 1.48

The exercise prices for each award were extracted from the option agreements. The expected terms for each award were derived using the simplified method, and is estimated to occur at the midpoint of the vesting date and the expiration date. The volatility of the underlying common stock during the lives of the options was a blend of implied volatility from the average volatility of peer companies, implied volatility and the Company's historical volatility. Risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the market yield of US Government Bonds with maturity close to the expected term of the options. The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the options.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 14,081 and $ 12,713 related to the option awards, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 46,043 and $ 39,768 related to the option awards, respectively.
The total unrecognized equity-based compensation costs as of September 30, 2023 related to the stock options was $ 43,349 , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.9 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options as of September 30, 2023 was $ 59 .
Capped Non-vested share units
The capped non-vested share units (“CRSUs”) represent rights for the holder to receive cash determined by the number of shares granted multiplied by the lower of the fair market value and the capped price, which will be settled in the form of cash payments. The CRSUs were accounted for as liability classified awards.

On June 27, 2022, the Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approved a modification of the settlement terms of 20,023,699 CRSUs under the 2021 Plan from cash settlement to share settlement (the “Modification”). Pursuant to the Modification, on each vesting date, if the stock price is higher than the capped price, the number of shares to be issued will be calculated based on the following formula:

Number of shares to be issued = Capped price* Number of shares vested /Vesting date stock price

NOTE 14. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT - continued

Capped Non-vested share units-continued

If the stock price is equal to or less than the capped price, the Company will grant a fixed number of shares on each vesting date based on the vesting schedule. All other terms of the CRSUs remain unchanged. The Modification resulted in a change of the CRSUs’ classification from liability to equity, as the predominant feature of the modified CRSUs was the granting of a fixed number of shares on each vesting date instead of a fixed monetary amount. The determination of the predominant feature was based on the estimated probability of how the awards will be settled using the Monte Carlo model.
At the Modification date, the Company reclassified the amounts previously recorded as a share-based compensation liability to additional paid-in capital. The modified CRSUs were accounted for as an equity award going forward from the date of the Modification with compensation expenses recognized for each tranche at the fair value measured on the modification date.
At the Modification date, the Company used the Monte Carlo valuation model in determining the fair value of the CRSUs with assumptions as follows:
Modification Date
Expected term (years) 0.07 ~ 2.07
Volatility 50.93 % ~ 73.89 %
Risk-free interest rate 1.15 % ~ 3.05 %
Expected dividend yields 0.00 %
Expected term was the time left (in years) from the Modification date to the vesting date based on the terms of the applicable award agreements. The volatility of the underlying common stock was estimated based on the historical stock price volatility of comparable listed companies over a period comparable to the expected term of the awards. Risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the market yield of US Government Bonds with maturity close to the expected term of the awards. The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the awards.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 4,367 and $ 1,832 , related to these CRSUs awards, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 29,481 and $ 8,378 , related to these CRSUs awards, respectively.
Activity on the CRSUs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023 was as follows:

Restricted Stock Units
Following the Business Combination, the Company granted 2,641,715 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 2,680,372 performance-based restricted stock unit (“PSU”) awards subject to service, performance and/or market conditions. The service condition requires the participant’s continued services or employment with the Company through the applicable vesting date, and the performance condition requires the achievement of the performance criteria defined in the award agreement. The market condition is based on the Company’s TSR relative to a comparator group during a specified performance period.
The fair value of RSUs is determined by the market closing price of Common Stock at the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. The fair value of PSUs that include vesting based on market conditions are estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation method. For PSU awards with performance conditions, share-based compensation expense is only recognized if the performance conditions become probable to be satisfied. Compensation cost for these awards is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the grant date fair value, regardless of whether the market condition is satisfied. Accordingly, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 577 and $ 1,536 related to these RSUs and $ 880 and $ 2,388 related to these PSUs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $ 345 and $ 1,048 related to these RSUs and $ 621 and $ 1,653 related to these PSUs, respectively.
The following assumptions were used for the respective period to calculate the fair value of common stock to be issued under TSR awards on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo model:
Nine months ended September 30, 2023
Expected term (years) 2.92
Volatility 61.89 %
Risk-free interest rate 3.83 %
Expected dividend yields 0.00 %

The expected term was derived based on the remaining time from the grant date through the end of the performance period. The volatility of the underlying common stock during the lives of the awards was estimated based on the historical stock price volatility of comparable listed companies over a period comparable to the expected term of the awards. Risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the market yield of US Government Bond with maturity close to the expected term of the awards. The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the awards.

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation

The directors of Company predecessor, Tuscan, have been named as defendants in a litigation filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery captioned Matt Jacob v. Stephen A. Vogel, et al. , No. 2022-0600-PAF (Del. Ch.) (filed July 7, 2022). The plaintiff is seeking to certify the litigation as a stockholder class action. The complaint alleges that defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with Tuscan’s acquisition of Microvast, Inc., including by making inadequate disclosures concerning the projected earnings of Microvast, Inc. The plaintiff further alleges that once the earnings of the combined company became public, the Company’s stock dropped, causing losses to investors.

Pursuant to the Company's governing documents and indemnification agreements entered into by the Company with each of the named defendants, the Company has indemnified the defendants for all expenses and losses related to the litigation subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. While the lawsuit is being vigorously defended, other reported lawsuits of this type have resulted in a broad range of outcomes, with each case being dependent on its own unique set of facts and circumstances. Litigation of this kind can lead to settlement negotiations, including negotiations prompted by pre-trial civil court procedures. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, and there is always the possibility that a court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of the Company and the individual defendants. However, the amount of any such loss in that scenario, which could be material, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

The Group is also involved in other litigation, claims, and proceedings. The Group evaluates the status of each legal matter and assesses the potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any legal proceedings or litigation is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Group accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Significant judgment is required to determine the probability of a loss and whether the amount of the loss is reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, based on the information currently available, the Group believes that the loss contingencies that may arise as a result of currently pending ordinary course legal proceedings are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
References in this Report to the “Company,” “Microvast Holdings, Inc.,” “Microvast,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to Microvast Holdings, Inc. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Business
Microvast Holdings, Inc. is an advanced battery technology company headquartered in Stafford, Texas, and is publicly traded on the Nasdaq stock exchange (the “NASDAQ”). We design, develop and manufacture battery components and systems primarily for electric commercial vehicles and utility-scale energy storage systems (“ESS”).
When we founded Microvast in 2006, our guiding principle, which remains at the heart of everything we do today, was to adopt an innovative and creative approach to the design of lithium-ion batteries without relying on past technologies. We call this true innovation. Our design approach began without preconceptions on how to make a lithium-ion battery, which contrasts to many other battery companies which took legacy battery technologies used in consumer electronics and adopted those for use in new market opportunities, such as electric vehicles, which we believe is product development, not innovation. To understand this difference, is to understand what we have set out to achieve.
Our mission is to use our innovative approach to create the battery technologies and solutions to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and the integration of renewable energy sources in order to power the transition to a sustainable economy. In particular, we seek to lead the charge in establishing and securing U.S. domestic battery production, which will strengthen the U.S. battery manufacturing base and reduce reliance on foreign battery manufacturing, in what is becoming a sector with significant strategic importance. We believe continuous investment in our technology and operations will deliver long-term targeted revenue and income growth.
We have developed proprietary technologies covering the entire battery system through our vertically integrated approach: from basic cell materials like the cathode, anode, electrolyte and separator, to cooling systems and software controls for the battery pack. Since our inception, we have primarily focused on developing new battery solutions for the transportation industry which requires batteries that are ultra-fast charging, high energy density, long lasting and safe.
In the future, in addition to expanding our production of battery systems and battery components, we expect to increase our focus on producing ESS solutions to support the shift to electrification, with the goal of becoming a leading global ESS solution provider to the energy market. This is a necessity because electric vehicles can only be considered as a green technology if the energy used to power them is also green. Addressing this symbiotic relationship is at the heart of our research activities and we expect it will shape our strategies for the foreseeable future.
Our most recent innovation is our high-energy, nickel, manganese, and cobalt (“NMC”) 53.5 ampere-hour battery cell (the “53.5Ah”), whose performance characteristics make it an attractive solution for commercial vehicle and ESS applications. To bring this product to market we have made significant investments in capacity expansions in Huzhou, China and Clarksville, Tennessee. Both facilities are using the same fully-automated production equipment for the 53.5Ah battery cell which will give us considerable operating efficiencies. We expect the 53.5Ah battery cell to be our dominant revenue driver for this next phase of our growth.
Since 2009, when we launched our first ultra-fast battery system, we have sold and delivered approximately 4,069.9 megawatt hours (“MWh”) of battery systems. Our revenue for the period ended September 30, 2023, increased $41.5 million to $80.1 million, a 107% increase compared to the period ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, we had an order backlog of approximately $678.7 million for our battery systems (the equivalent of approximately 2,526.1 MWh), over 90% of which is attributable to the U.S. and Europe. We expect to fulfill a majority of our backlog within 2023 and 2024.

On October 3, 2022, we launched our new energy division (“Microvast Energy”). The new division designs, develops and manufactures ESS containers that are co-located with solar solutions or operate as stand-alone energy assets
29
using our battery technology. The engineering, sales, after-sales and marketing and customer care departments for Microvast Energy are headquartered in northern Colorado.

On July 11, 2023, we announced that we are expanding our ESS business to a new facility in Windsor, Colorado.
This new facility provides nearly 100,000 square feet of space for assembling ESS containers, with ample room to add additional assembly capacity for our ESS business as needed and is expected to become operational in 2023.

In October 2022, we were notified by the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) that we had been selected, in collaboration with General Motors, to receive $200 million in grant funding as part of the DOE's Battery Materials Processing and Battery Manufacturing initiative pursuant to the recently enacted infrastructure law, subject to negotiation of specific terms and conditions. The grant funding was expected to support the construction of a new polyaramid separator manufacturing facility in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. On May 23, 2023 the DOE announced that it was declining to award the previously-announced $200 million grant to us. Notwithstanding the DOE’s decision, we plan to continue making significant investments in the United States, including completing our battery manufacturing facility in Clarksville, Tennessee. We also remain committed to building a polyaramid separator manufacturing plant in the United States but intend to focus on our core business in the near term.
Completion of the Business Combination
On July 23, 2021, Microvast Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Tuscan Holdings Corp.) consummated the previously announced acquisition of Microvast, Inc., a Delaware corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated February 1, 2021, between Tuscan, Microvast and TSCN Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Microvast, with Microvast surviving the merger.
Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
We believe that our future success will be dependent on several factors, including the factors discussed below. While these areas represent opportunities for us, they also represent challenges and risks that we must successfully address in order to continue the growth of our business and improve our results of operations.
Technology and Product Innovation
Our financial performance is driven by the development and sales of new products with innovative technology. Our ability to develop innovative technology has been and will continue to be dependent on our dedicated research team. , In October 2021, as part of our efforts to develop innovative technology, we expanded our R&D footprint in Orlando by purchasing a 75,000 square foot facility dedicated to R&D. We plan to continue expanding our R&D presence in the U.S. We also plan to continue leveraging our knowledge base in our overseas locations, including Europe and China and to continue expanding our R&D efforts on a global basis. We expect our results of operations will continue to be impacted by our ability to develop new products with improved performance and reduced ownership cost, as well as the cost of our R&D efforts.
Market Demand
Our revenue and profitability depend substantially on the demand for battery systems and battery components, which is driven by the growth of the commercial and passenger electric vehicle and energy storage markets. Many factors contribute to the development of the electric vehicle and battery energy storage sector, including product innovation, general economic and political conditions, environmental concerns, energy demand, government support and economic incentives(e.g., the IRA in the U.S. and the E.U. Green Deal, E.U. Fit for 55). While governmental economic incentives and mandates can drive market demand for the markets in which we operate and, as a result, battery systems and components, governmental economic incentives can always be gradually reduced or eliminated. Any reduction or elimination of governmental economic incentives may result in reduced demand for our products and adversely affect our financial performance.
Manufacturing Capacity
Our growth depends on being able to meet anticipated demand for our products. In order to do this, we will need to increase our manufacturing capacity. As of September 30, 2023, we had a backlog of approximately $678.7 million for our battery systems, equivalent to approximately 2,526.1 MWh. So far, we have used $392.4 million of the proceeds from the Business Combination that was completed in July 2021 to expand our manufacturing facilities and for the purchase of property and equipment associated with our existing manufacturing and R&D facilities. This investment program allows us
30
to increase our manufacturing output, enabling us to address our backlog and to capture growing market opportunities. We expect the total capital expenditures related to these capacity expansions in Huzhou, China and Clarksville, Tennessee, which will give us an additional 4 GWh of capacity, to be in the range of $460.0 million to $490.0 million.
Future capacity expansions will be carried out in a measured manner based on our ongoing assessment of medium- and long-term demand for our solutions. Any such capacity expansions will require significant additional capital expenditures and will require corresponding expansion of our supporting infrastructure, further development of our sales and marketing team, expansion of our customer base and strengthened quality control.
Sales Geographic Mix
After initially being focused on the Asia & Pacific regions, we have expanded and continue to expand our presence and product promotion to Europe and the U.S. to capitalize on the rapidly growing electric vehicle and battery energy storage markets in those geographies. As we continue to expand our geographic focus to Europe and the U.S., we believe sales of our products in Europe and the U.S. will have the potential to generate higher gross margins because average sales prices for customers in the U.S. and Europe are typically significantly higher than the average sales prices in China. It has been our experience that buyers in Europe and the U.S. are more motivated by the technologies and quality of our products than are buyers in China, making them less sensitive to the price of our products than are similarly situated buyers in China where we are also faced with intense competition from local Chinese battery manufacturers, some of which have state support. Therefore, the geographic sources of our revenue will have an impact on our revenue and gross margins.
Manufacturing Costs
Our profitability may also be affected by our ability to effectively manage our manufacturing costs. Our manufacturing costs are affected by fluctuations in the price of raw materials. If raw material prices increase, we will have to offset these higher costs either through price increases to our customers or through productivity improvements. Our ability to control our raw materials costs is also dependent on our ability to negotiate with our suppliers for a better price and our ability to source raw materials from reliable suppliers in a cost-efficient manner. In addition, we expect that an increase in our sales volume will enable us to lower our manufacturing costs through economies of scale.
Regulatory Landscape
We operate in an industry that is subject to many established environmental regulations, which have generally become more stringent over time, particularly with respect to hazardous waste generation and disposal and pollution control. These regulations affect the cost of our products and our gross margins. We are also affected by regulations in our target markets such as economic incentives to purchasers of electric vehicles, tax credits for electric vehicle manufacturers, and economic penalties that may apply to vehicle manufacturers based on its fleet-wide emissions. Each of these regulations may expand the market size of electric vehicles, which would, in turn, benefit us. We have operations and sales in the Asia & Pacific region, Europe and the U.S. and, as a result, changes in trade restrictions and tariffs could impact our ability to meet projected sales or margins.
Basis of Presentation
We currently conduct our business through one operating segment. Our historical results are reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP and in U.S. dollars.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenues
We derive revenue from the sales of our electric battery products, including LpTO, LpCO, MpCO, HpCO and HnCo battery power systems. While we have historically marketed and sold our products primarily in China and the wider

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs associated with our sales and marketing functions, including share-based compensation, and other expenses related to advertising and promotions of our products. We intend to hire additional sales personnel, initiate additional marketing programs and build additional relationships with our customers. Accordingly, we expect that our selling and marketing expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars in the long term as we expand our business.
General and administrative expenses . General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses associated with our executive team members, including share-based compensation, legal, finance, human resource and information technology functions, as well as fees for professional services, depreciation and amortization and insurance expenses. We expect to incur additional costs as we hire personnel and enhance our infrastructure to support the anticipated growth of our business.
Research and development expenses . Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, including share-based compensation, raw material expenses relating to materials used for experiments, utility expenses and depreciation expenses attributable to research and development activities. Over time, we expect our research and development expense to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to make significant investments in developing new products, applications, functionality and other offerings.
Subsidy Income
Government subsidies represent government grants received from local government authorities. The amounts of and conditions attached to each subsidy were determined at the sole discretion of the relevant governmental authorities. Our subsidy income is non-recurring in nature.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income and expenses consist primarily of interest expense associated with our debt financing arrangements, interest income earned on our cash balances, gains and losses from foreign exchange conversion, and gains and losses on disposal of assets.
Income Tax Expense
We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in which we do business, namely the PRC, Germany and the UK. These foreign jurisdictions have statutory tax rates different from those in the U.S. Accordingly, our effective tax rates will vary depending on the relative proportion of foreign to U.S. income, the absorption of foreign tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes in tax laws. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from the examination of our tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), and other tax authorities to determine the adequacy of our income tax reserves and expense. Should actual events or results differ from our current expectations, charges or credits to our income tax expense may become necessary. Any such adjustments could have a significant impact on our results of operations.
Income tax in the PRC is generally calculated at 25% of the estimated assessable profit of our subsidiaries in the PRC, except that two of our PRC subsidiaries were qualified as “High and New Tech Enterprises” and thus enjoyed a preferential income tax rate of 15%. Federal corporate income tax rate of 21% is applied for our U.S. entity. Income tax in the UK is calculated at an average tax rate of 19% of the estimated assessable profit of our subsidiary in the UK. German enterprise income tax, which is a combination of corporate income tax and trade tax, is calculated at 27.9% of the estimated assessable profit of our subsidiary in Germany.

Revenues
Our revenues increased from approximately $38.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately $80.1 million for the same period in 2023, primarily driven by an increase in sales volume from approximately 112.2 MWh for three months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately 319.2 MWh for the same period in 2023.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
Our cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $25.6 million, or 69.9%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in the cost of revenues was primarily in line with the increased sales, partially offset by $0.4 million of decreased share-based compensation expenses.
Our gross margin increased from 5.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to 22.3% for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross margin was due to a combination of factors including better economies of scale through improving utilization, more favorable product mix and lower raw material prices.

Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing

Selling and Marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were stable compared to the same period in 2022.
General and Administrative

General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $2.8 million, or 12.5%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in General and Administrative expenses was primarily due to $1.8 million of increased personnel-related expenses, $1.9 million of increased exchange loss and other increases related to business expansion, offset by $2.4 million of decreased share-based compensation expenses.
Research and Development

R&D expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $1.8 million, or 15.6%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily due to $1.5 million of increased personnel-related expenses as we increased headcount of our research team as a result of our efforts to further develop and enhance our products.

Revenues
Our revenues increased from approximately $139.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately $202.0 million for the same period in 2023, primarily driven by an increase in sales volume from approximately 478.7 MWh for nine months ended September 30, 2022 to approximately 722.0 MWh for the same period in 2023.

Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing

Selling and Marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was stable compared to the same period in 2022.
General and Administrative

General and Administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $13.7 million, or 16.5%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in General and Administrative expenses was primarily due to $20.5 million of decreased share-based compensation expenses, offset by $3.7 million of increased personnel-related expenses and the other increases related to business expansion.
Research and Development

R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were stable compared to the same period in 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily from capital contributions from equity holders, the issuance of convertible notes and bank borrowings. We expect existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, and cash flows from operations and financing activities to continue to be sufficient to fund our operating and investing activities for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

As of September 30, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity were our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments in the amount of $114.7 million. In October 2023, we signed a supplemental agreement with the banks under the 2022 Facility Agreement to extend the drawdown date to June 9, 2024 on the $70.4 million (RMB500 million) that is undrawn under that project finance facility for the construction of our Huzhou capacity expansions. We also have $21.7 million available under a working capital credit line.

The consolidated net cash position as of September 30, 2023 included cash and cash equivalents of $24.6 million and $0.2 million held by our PRC and UK subsidiaries, respectively, that is not available to fund our U.S. operations unless funds are repatriated. Should we need to repatriate to the U.S. part or all of the funds held by our international subsidiaries in the form of a dividend, we would need to accrue and pay withholding taxes. We do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and intend to retain all of the available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business in the PRC, Europe and the U.S.

Financings

As of September 30, 2023, we had bank borrowings of $55.7 million, the terms of which range from 3 to 39 months. The interest rates on our bank borrowings ranged from 3.40% to 4.8% per annum. As of September 30, 2023, we had convertible bonds outstanding of $43.9 million, with interest rates ranging from 3% to 4%. The convertible bonds are all due in 2027. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all material terms and covenants of our loan agreements, credit agreements and bonds. Our US operations have no bank or third party debt funding, and as our business and asset base grows in the US, however we expect to enter into debt financing arrangements to support our expansion plans for the US market. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms that are acceptable to us, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

On July 23, 2021, we received $708.4 million from the completion of the Business Combination, $705.1 million net of transaction costs paid by Microvast, Inc. We have used $392.4 million of the net proceeds from the Business Combination to expand our manufacturing facilities and for the purchase of property and equipment associated with our existing manufacturing and R&D facilities. In addition, $122.1 million of the net proceeds were used for working capital as of September 30, 2023.

We believe we will be able to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months and fund our expansion plans with proceeds from bank borrowings and other third-party debt funding.

To reduce share dilution, we may from time to time repurchase our warrants, including in the open market, by way of tender offers or privately negotiated purchases.

Capital expenditures and other contractual obligations

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, funding our planned production capacity expansions and general working capital. We believe the proceeds from the bank borrowings and other
37
third-party debt funding will be sufficient to cover the remaining payment of our planned expansions totaling 4GWh and our general working capital needs. In addition, we may in the future enter into arrangements to further increase our production capacity or seek to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or technologies. We may need to seek additional equity or debt financing in order to meet these future capital requirements. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms that are acceptable to us, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Lease Commitments

We lease certain facilities and equipment under non-cancellable lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2036. For additional information, see Note 13 – Leases, in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report on Form 10-Q.

Capital Expenditures

In 2021, we started our capacity expansion plans in Huzhou, China, and Clarksville, Tennessee. The Phase 3.1 expansion in Huzhou for the production of 53.5Ah cells, modules and packs was completed during Q3 2023 and we expect it will reach its 2 GWh per year design capacity by the end of the year. With the Phase 3.1 line now in full operation we are supplying battery systems using the 53.5ah cell technology to our customers across the globe, and we expect this to result in an increasing contribution of revenues from European and US customers in the foreseeable future.

The 2GWh expansion project in Clarksville, Tennessee which is also dedicated to our new 53.5Ah cell technology is expected to be in trial production by the end of Q1 2024, with customer shipments anticipated to begin in Q2 2024. The completion of these projects is expected to increase our existing production capacity by 4 GWh once operational. We expect the total capital expenditures related to these capacity expansions in Huzhou, China and Clarksville, Tennessee to be in the range of $460.0 million to $490.0 million, which we finance primarily through the proceeds from the Business Combination, bank borrowings and other third-party debt funding, which we believe will be sufficient to cover all of the disclosed and estimated costs.

Our planned capital expenditures are based on management’s current estimates and may be subject to change. There can be no assurance that we will execute our capital expenditure plans as contemplated at or below-estimated costs, and we may also from time-to-time determine to undertake additional capital projects and incur additional capital expenditures. As a result, actual capital expenditures in future years may be more or less than the amounts shown.

There have not been any other material changes during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 to our contractual obligations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Cash Flows
The following table provides a summary of our cash flow data for the periods indicated:
Nine Months Ended September 30,
2022
2023
Amount in thousands
Net cash used in operating activities (58,595) (70,350)
Net cash used in investing activities (84,719) (153,120)
Net cash generated from financing activities 34,226 12,153
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our operating activities used $70.4 million in cash. This decrease in cash consisted of (1) a net loss of $81.8 million and non-cash charges of $79.2 million, of which $14.6 million is depreciation of property, plant and equipment and $51.6 million is non-cash share-based compensation expense; and (2) a $67.8 million decrease in cash flows from operating assets and liabilities including $23.3 million cash outflow due to the net increase of accounts receivable and notes receivable, $54.5 million increase in inventories, $27.3 million increase in accounts payable and notes payable, $14.0 million cash outflow from accrued and other liabilities and prepaid expense and other current asset, and $3.3 million cash outflow from other operating assets and liabilities.
38
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities totaled $153.1 million. This cash outflow primarily consisted of capital expenditures related to the expansion of our manufacturing facilities and to the purchase of property and equipment associated with our existing manufacturing and R&D facilities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash generated from financing activities totaled $12.2 million. This cash inflow was a result of $18.4 million proceeds from bank borrowings offset by $6.2 million repayment on bank borrowings.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
There have been no substantial changes to these estimates, or the policies related to them during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For a full discussion of these estimates and policies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Exposure Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and money market accounts. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. To date, fluctuations in interest income have not been significant. In addition, our bonds payable bear interest at fixed rates and are not publicly traded. Our project finance loans in China contain a spread of 115 basis points over the Loan Prime Rate in China and accordingly are exposed to movements in that reference rate. Therefore, interest expense going forward could be materially affected by changes in the market interest rates.
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. Because our cash equivalents have a short maturity, our portfolio’s fair value is relatively insensitive to interest rate changes. We do not believe that an increase or decrease in interest rates of 100 basis points would have a material effect on our operating results or financial condition. In future periods, we will continue to evaluate our investment policy in order to ensure that we continue to meet our overall objectives.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Until our capacity expansion in Clarksville, Tennessee is in production, our major operational activities are carried out in the PRC and a majority of the transactions are denominated in Renminbi. The volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that we cannot forecast with reliable accuracy. We have experienced and will continue to experience fluctuations in our operating results as a result of transaction gains and losses related to translating certain cash balances, trade accounts receivable and payable balances, and intercompany balances that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, principally Renminbi. The effect of an immediate 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates on Renminbi-denominated accounts as of September 30, 2023, including intercompany balances, would result in a foreign currency loss of $8.3 million. In the event our foreign sales and expenses increase, our operating results may be more affected by fluctuations in the exchange rates of the currencies in which we do business. At this time, we do not, but we may in the future, enter into derivatives or other financial instruments in an attempt to hedge our foreign currency exchange risk. It is difficult to predict the impact hedging activities would have on our results of operations.
39
Credit Risk
Our credit risk primarily relates to our trade and other receivables, restricted cash, cash equivalents and amounts due from related parties. We generally grant credit only to clients and related parties with good credit ratings and also closely monitor overdue debts. In this regard, we consider that the credit risk arising from our balances with counterparties is significantly reduced.
The assumptions used in evaluating our exposure to credit losses associated with our financing receivables
portfolio involve estimates and significant judgment. Holding other estimates constant, a hypothetical 100 basis points
increase in the expected loss rate on the financing receivables portfolio would have resulted in an increase in the allowance
for credit losses of approximately $0.6 million as of September 30, 2023.
In order to minimize the credit risk, we have delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, we review the recoverable amount of each individual debtor at the end of each reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. We will negotiate with the counterparties of the debts for settlement plans or changes in credit terms, should the need arise. In this regard, we consider that our credit risk is significantly reduced.
Seasonality
We have historically experienced higher sales during our third and fourth fiscal quarters as compared to our first and second fiscal quarters. However, our limited operating history makes it difficult for us to judge the exact nature or extent of the seasonality of our business.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023 and believed that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The directors of Company predecessor, Tuscan, have been named as defendants in a litigation filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery captioned Matt Jacob v. Stephen A. Vogel, et al. , No. 2022-0600-PAF (Del. Ch.) (filed July 7, 2022). The plaintiff is seeking to certify the litigation as a stockholder class action. The complaint alleges that defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with Tuscan’s acquisition of Microvast, Inc., including by making inadequate disclosures concerning the projected earnings of Microvast, Inc. The plaintiff further alleges that once the earnings of the combined company became public, the Company’s stock price dropped, causing losses to investors.

Pursuant to the Company’s governing documents and indemnification agreements entered into by the Company with each of the named defendants, the Company has indemnified the defendants for all expenses and losses related to the litigation subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. While the lawsuit is being vigorously defended, other reported lawsuits of this type have resulted in a broad range of outcomes, with each case being dependent on its own unique set of facts and circumstances. Litigation of this kind can lead to settlement negotiations, including negotiations prompted by pre-trial civil court procedures. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, and there is always the possibility that a court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of the Company and the individual defendants. However, the amount of any such loss in that scenario, which could be material, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

The Group is also involved in other litigation, claims, and proceedings. The Group evaluates the status of each legal matter and assesses the potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any legal proceedings or litigation is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Group accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Significant judgment is required to determine the probability of a loss and whether the amount of the loss is reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, based on the information currently available, the Group believes that the loss contingencies that may arise as a result of currently pending ordinary course legal proceedings are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In evaluating us and our common stock, we urge you to carefully consider the risks and other information in this Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and other reports that we have filed with the SEC. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no unregistered sales of our equity securities during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
