Pony AI Inc. Announces Unaudited Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results

NEW YORK, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pony AI Inc. ("Pony.ai" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: PONY), a global leader in the large-scale commercialization of autonomous mobility, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024.

Dr. James Peng, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Pony.ai, commented, "2024 marked a milestone year for Pony.ai as we transitioned to a public company. Our robotaxi-first, China-first, and tier-one cities-first approach has positioned us at the forefront of the race towards large-scale commercialization. The strategic partnerships with OEMs we have developed, also empowers us to rapidly scale production of our seventh-generation robotaxi. In 2025, we aim to build upon this momentum and accelerate beyond the inflection point of scaled commercialization, building a world with safer, more efficient, and accessible autonomous mobility."

Dr. Tiancheng Lou, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Pony.ai, added, "Our years of engineering efforts have yielded cutting-edge technology that ensures the highest levels of safety at effective costs, and supports our large-scale operations. Reinforcement learning and PonyWorld generative virtual environment are powering our autonomous driving system with smarter decisions in complex real-world conditions. Notably, our robotaxi safety record has improved by 16 times and has driven insurance policy prices down to roughly 50% that of human-driven taxis -- all these are clear indicators of safety and reliability in our technology."

Dr. Leo Wang, Chief Financial Officer of Pony.ai, commented, "We are proud of our revenue growth over the past three consecutive years, showcasing our ability to commercialize our leading autonomous mobility solutions. While the near-term financials reflected our strategic resource allocation to support the mass production and deployment of robotaxi services, we remain focused on improving unit economics in 2025. Our successful IPO has enhanced our financial strength and flexibility, providing us with ample capital for disciplined production scale-up and R&D investments."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to Pony AI Inc., non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and changes in fair value of warrants liability, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and when assessing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" set forth at the end of this press release.
