GOTHENBURG, SWEDEN – April 17, 2026 – Polestar (Nasdaq: PSNY) today presents its consolidated financial results and operational metrics for the year and three months ended December 31, 2025.
Michael Lohscheller, Polestar CEO, said: “2025 was a record year for Polestar, with retail sales of over 60,000 cars and revenue surpassing USD 3 billion. Our strong commercial performance was driven by the expansion of our sales network and strength of our model line-up.
"Since June 2025 to-date, we have strengthened our balance sheet and improved our debt and liquidity positions through a total of USD 1.2 billion in equity injections, approx. USD 0.6 billion debt-to-equity conversions, partially executed and planned, and an agreement of a three-year extension of the USD 0.7 billion shareholder loan.
"In 2026, our operational focus will be on the continued expansion of our sales network, growing our sales points by a planned 20%, to coincide with the largest model offensive in our history, with four new models planned during the next three years. While we expect market conditions to become more challenging, amid ongoing geopolitical developments, we will continue to drive financial performance, building on our achievements in 2025, with an improved model mix, sustained cost reduction and financial discipline."

Financial guidance
Polestar has continued to make major strides in its commercial transformation supported by accelerated retail expansion and the strength of its attractive model line-up in a challenging geopolitical and economic environment.
Looking to 2026, the global environment is expected to remain highly uncertain given recent geopolitical developments. As previously indicated, retail sales volumes are expected to increase at a low double-digit rate, with a continued focus on quality revenue. The sales mix is expected to further evolve with an increasing share of Polestar 4 coupe, our best-selling model, complemented later in 2026 with the introduction of new Polestar 4 SUV variant.

| · | Retail sales totaled 60,119 cars, representing growth of 34.0% year-on-year (YoY) from 44,851 cars in the comparable period, driven by the transition to an active selling model, accelerated retail expansion and an attractive model line-up. |
| · | Revenue of USD 3,058 million, up by 50.3% from USD 2,034 million a year earlier, driven predominantly by higher volumes, a growing share of higher priced models (Polestar 3 and Polestar 4) in the sales mix, and carbon credits sales partially offset by pressure on pricing in a competitive and challenging market environment. Carbon credits sales totaled USD 211 million in the period from USD 11 million a year earlier, including USD 19 million worth of carbon credits sales booked in other operating income (2024: USD nil). |
| · | Cost of sales increased to USD (4,142) million, an increase of 42.3% from USD (2,910) million in 2024, mainly due to higher sales volumes and related increased production volumes and carline mix, as well as higher duties and tariffs related to increase in tariffs, primarily from China to the EU; higher cost of sales includes impairment expenses on tangible and intangible assets net of reversals of USD (1,050) million (2024: USD (622) million). |
| · | Gross margin was a negative (35.4)%, an improvement from (43.1)% in the comparable period, and includes impairment expenses booked in 2025. |
| · | Adjusted Gross Margin at near-breakeven of (0.7)%, an improvement from (12.5)% a year earlier; Adjusted Gross Loss significantly reduced to USD (22) million from USD (254) million in 2024 mainly as a result of evolving product and geographical sales mix, reduction in materials costs and higher carbon credits sales, lower adjustment of residual value guarantee in North American markets and positive impact from the China JV settlement partially offset by pressure on pricing and tariffs and collateral impact on inventory net realizable value. |
| · | Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses improved to USD (856) million from USD (891) million in 2024; expenses decreased by USD 100 million due to optimized marketing and advertising expenses, cost discipline and organizational restructuring with reduced headcount (from 2,547 in December 2024 to 1,686 in December 2025) but were partially offset by higher sales agent remuneration, by USD 65 million year-on-year, linked to growing retail sales volumes. |
| · | Research and development (R&D) expenses increased to USD (78) million from USD (38) million in the comparable period, driven by higher spend due to commencement of new programs with a lower capitalization rate. |
| · | Operating loss was USD (2,009) million compared to USD (1,813) million in 2024, primarily due to factors described above; other net operating income/expense was higher due to restructuring expenses related to headcount reduction and real-estate downsizing. |
| · | Net loss of USD (2,357) million, compared to net loss of USD (2,050) million in 2024, driven by factors described above; finance income was lower due to lower interest rates; finance expense was higher on higher levels of outstanding external financing; net foreign exchange gains on financial activities arose from positive FX movements; positive fair value changes from Earn-out rights and Class C shares were lower due to a smaller relative depreciation of Polestar's share price over the period compared to prior year; share of losses in associates increased due to the capital contributions made by Polestar in its China associate in 2025 which triggered recognition of previously unrecognized losses. |
| · | Adjusted EBITDA of USD (783) million, improved by USD 297 million from USD (1,080) million in the comparable period, is a result of achieving near-breakeven Adjusted Gross Loss and optimizing SG&A expenses, which were partially offset by increased R&D expenses and higher sales agent remuneration. |
| · | Further details are provided in the reconciliation tables for non-GAAP measures in Appendix C. |

| · | Net loss of USD (799) million, compared to net loss of USD (1,183) million for the fourth quarter of 2024, is better due to factors mentioned above and lower impairment expenses booked in Q4 2025. |
| · | Adjusted EBITDA loss of USD (223) million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of USD (470) million for the fourth quarter of 2024, mainly due to improvement from Adjusted Gross Loss of USD (224) million in Q4 2024 to Adjusted Gross Profit of USD 17 million in Q4 2025. |

With its vehicles currently manufactured on two continents, North America and Asia, Polestar is diversifying its manufacturing footprint further, with production of Polestar 7 planned in Europe.
Polestar has an unwavering commitment to sustainability and has set an ambitious roadmap to reach its climate targets: halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 per-vehicle-sold and become climate-neutral across its value chain by 2040. Polestar’s comprehensive sustainability strategy covers the four areas of Climate, Transparency, Circularity, and Inclusion.
Statement regarding unaudited financial and operational results
The unaudited financial and operational information published in this press release is subject to potential adjustments. Potential adjustments to operational and consolidated financial information may be identified from work performed during Polestar’s year-end audit. This could result in differences from the unaudited operational and financial information published herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the unaudited operational and financial information published in this press release should not be considered a substitute for the financial information filed with the SEC in Polestar’s Annual Reports on Form 20-F.
Forward-looking statements
Certain statements in this press release (“Press Release”) may be considered “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or the future financial or operating performance of Polestar including the number of vehicle deliveries and gross margin. For example, projections of revenue, volumes, margins, cash flow break-even and other financial or operating metrics and statements regarding expectations of future needs for funding and plans related thereto are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expect”, “intend”, “will”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “predict”, “potential”, “forecast”, “plan”, “seek”, “future”, “propose” or “continue”, or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Polestar and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) Polestar’s ability to enter into or maintain agreements or partnerships with its strategic partners, including Volvo Cars and Geely, original equipment manufacturers, vendors and technology providers; (2) Polestar’s ability to maintain relationships with its existing suppliers, source new suppliers for its critical components and enter into longer term supply contracts and complete building out its supply chain; (3) Polestar’s ability to raise additional funding; (4) Polestar’s ability to successfully execute cost-cutting activities and strategic efficiency initiatives; (5) Polestar’s estimates of expenses, profitability, gross margin, cash flow, and cash reserves; (6) Polestar’s ability to continue to meet stock exchange listing standards; (7) changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; (8) demand for Polestar’s vehicles or car sale volumes, revenue and margin development based on pricing, variant and market mix, cost reduction efficiencies, logistics and growing aftersales; (9) delays in the expected timelines for the development, design, manufacture, launch and financing of Polestar’s vehicles and Polestar’s reliance on a limited number of vehicle models to generate revenues; (10) increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of materials, in particular for lithium-ion cells or semiconductors; (11) risks related to product recalls, regulatory fines and/or an unexpectedly high volume of warranty claims; (12) Polestar’s reliance on its partners to manufacture vehicles at a high volume, some of which have limited experience in producing electric vehicles, and on the allocation of sufficient production capacity to Polestar by its partners in order for Polestar to be able to increase its vehicle production volumes; (13) the ability of Polestar to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (14) risks related to future market adoption of Polestar’s offerings; (15) risks related to Polestar’s current distribution model and the evolution of its distribution model in the future; (16) the effects of competition and the high barriers to entry in the automotive industry and the pace and depth of electric vehicle adoption generally on Polestar’s future business; (17) changes in regulatory requirements (including environmental laws and regulations and regulations related to connected vehicles), governmental incentives, tariffs and fuel and energy prices; (18) Polestar’s reliance on the development of vehicle charging networks to provide charging solutions for its vehicles and its strategic partners for servicing its vehicles and their integrated software; (19) Polestar’s ability to establish its brand and capture additional market share, and the risks associated with negative press or reputational harm, including from electric vehicle fires; (20) the outcome of any potential litigation, including litigation involving Polestar and Gores Guggenheim, Inc., government and regulatory proceedings, including the NHTSA investigation into the Polestar 2 rear view camera, tax audits, investigations and inquiries; (21) Polestar’s ability to continuously and rapidly innovate, develop and market new products; (22) the impact of the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia and the conflict with Iran and the conflict in the Red Sea; and (23) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Polestar’s Form 20-F, and other documents filed, or to be filed, with the SEC by Polestar. There may be additional risks that Polestar presently does not know or that Polestar currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Nothing in this Press Release should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Polestar assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future, except as may be required by law.

Appendix B
Impairment
| · | For the impairment assessment, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets (i.e., a cash-generating-unit or CGU). For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, Polestar had four lower-level cash generating units: (1) the Polestar 2, (2) the Polestar 3, (3) the Polestar 4, and (4) Internal Development Projects (IDP), mainly comprised of the Polestar 5, Polestar 6, and PX2 powertrain, as well as the Polestar Group level CGU. |
| · | For the year ended December 31, 2025, the recoverable amount for each CGU was based on their value in use and calculated based on estimations of future cash flows using assumptions that were generally consistent with the 2026-2030 business plan, adjusted where necessary to reflect changes in financial conditions and / or expectations in relation to the future subsequent to the preparation of that business plan. Mainly due to slower than expected industry-wide battery electric vehicles (BEV) adoption in the near term, lower demand in the electric vehicles upper premium segment, changes in regulations and policies and competitive dynamics, Polestar recognized additional impairment of USD 41 million, USD 891 million and USD 167 million on the Polestar 2, Polestar 3 and IDP CGU, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the recoverable amount of the Polestar 2 CGU was USD (210) million, the recoverable amount of the Polestar 3 CGU was USD (190) million and the recoverable amount of the IDP CGU was USD 93 million. |
Appendix C
Polestar Automotive Holding UK PLC
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Polestar uses both generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP," i.e., IFRS) and non-GAAP (i.e., non-IFRS) financial measures to evaluate operating performance and for other strategic and financial decision-making purposes. Polestar believes non-GAAP financial measures are helpful to investors as they provide useful perspective on underlying business trends and assist in period-on-period comparisons. These measures also improve the ability of management and investors to assess and compare the financial performance and position of Polestar with those of other companies.
These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental information purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not presented under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and, therefore, should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under GAAP when assessing Polestar's operating performance.
The measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies due to possible differences in calculation methods and items or events being adjusted. A reconciliation between non-GAAP financial measures and the most comparable GAAP performance measures is provided below.
Non-GAAP financial measures used by management are Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Gross Profit / (Loss) and Adjusted Gross Margin.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net loss, adjusted to exclude:
| · | Fair value change - Earn-out rights and Class C Shares; |
| · | Finance expense; |
| · | Finance income; |
| · | Foreign exchange gains (losses) on financial activities, net; |
| · | Income tax benefit (expense); |
| · | Depreciation and amortization1; |
| · | Impairment of property, plant and equipment, vehicles under operating leases, and intangibles assets, net of reversals; |
| · | Gains (losses) on disposals of investments2; |
| · | Restructuring costs3; and |
| · | Unusual other operating income and expenses that are considered rare or discrete events and are infrequent in nature. |
1 - Depreciation and amortization includes (a) depreciation and amortization capitalized into the carrying value of inventory sold (i.e., part of inventory costs) and (b) depreciation and amortization expense.
2 - Disposals of investments include disposals, by sales or otherwise, of: (a) debt or equity financial instruments issued by another entity that are held as investments, (b) intangible assets, (c) property, plant, and equipment, and (d) groups of assets and liabilities representing disposal groups that were transferred together as part of individual transactions.
3 - Restructuring costs include expenses associated with programs that were planned and controlled by management, and materially changed either (a) the scope of a business undertaken by the Group or (b) the manner in which business is conducted.
Management reviews this measure and believes it provides meaningful insight into the core business's underlying operating performance and trends, before the effect of any adjusting items.
Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is calculated as cash used for operating activities plus cash used to acquire property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. This measure is reviewed by management and management considers it to be a relevant measure for assessing cash generated by operating activities that are available to repay debts and spend on other strategic initiatives.
Adjusted Gross Profit / (Loss) and Adjusted Gross Margin
Adjusted Gross Profit / (Loss) is calculated as gross loss, adjusted to exclude: (i) expenses arising from the impairment of property, plant and equipment, vehicles under operating leases, and intangibles assets; and (ii) unusual other items of income or expense that are considered rare or discrete events and are infrequent in nature. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated as Adjusted Gross Profit / (Loss) divided by revenue. These measures are reviewed by management and management considers them to be useful measures for assessing Polestar's historical operating performance as they facilitate comparison between periods by excluding the non-cash impairment expense, the measurement of which includes significant assumptions related to future periods.
