They had to get a huge infusion of cash with the IPO, plus at the rate they're going, I don't think the 20% increase is really going to impact their bottom line as they are making so few vehicles to begin with. Even if they get 10,000 out this year, which seems like a stretch, at a $15k increase, that's "only" $150 million?
The only things that make sense is the vehicles were priced low to begin with relative to the market, and they are such a small player they couldn't/didn't hedge properly and they don't have any leverage over materials and suppliers?
