Aurora Innovation reported third quarter 2026 revenue of $3 million, meeting analyst expectations, while posting a net loss of $0.12 per share. Despite operational progress including 500,000 autonomous miles driven, management significantly lowered full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $9 million from the previous $14 million to $16 million range due to manufacturing bottlenecks.
Key Highlights
- Full-year 2026 revenue guidance was cut by approximately 40% to $9 million, reflecting a six-week delay in the production ramp compared to prior internal plans.
- The milestone of 200 driverless trucks in operation, previously targeted for year-end 2026, is now expected to be reached by late February 2027.
- Liquidity remains robust with $1.03 billion in cash and short-term investments, though the company projects fourth quarter 2026 cash use to accelerate to $250 million.
