Nikola Beats Wall Street Expectations With Strong Q2 PerformanceNikola Corporation (Nasdaq: NASDAQ:NKLA ), a key player in zero-emissions transportation, has demonstrated remarkable resilience and strategic acumen in its recent quarterly performance. The electric truck manufacturer reported better-than-expected financial results for Q2 2024, marked by a significant revenue surge and robust demand for its hydrogen-powered trucks, signaling a successful pivot from its battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) to hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs).
Financial Highlights
Nikola ( NASDAQ:NKLA ) posted Q2 revenue of $31.3 million, surpassing Wall Street's expectations of $27.1 million. Representing a staggering 318% increase from the previous quarter, marking the strongest topline in the company's history. The company also reported a smaller-than-expected adjusted loss per share of $2.67, compared to analysts' average estimate of a $2.85 loss, reflecting Nikola's improving financial health.
Strong Demand for Hydrogen Trucks
A key driver of this financial performance was the robust demand for Nikola’s hydrogen-powered trucks. The company delivered 72 hydrogen FCEVs in Q2, an 80% increase from the first quarter, exceeding its own guidance. This strong performance highlights the growing interest in hydrogen fuel technology, particularly among large fleet operators looking to decarbonize their operations.
Nikola’s shift towards hydrogen technology appears to be paying off, as it acquires new customers and sees an uptick in orders. Notably, Walmart Canada became a significant customer, receiving its first hydrogen semi-truck from Nikola in June. The company's focus on expanding its reach across North America has also resulted in repeat orders from two major national accounts, further solidifying its market presence.
Operational Achievements
Nikola's FCEVs are proving their worth in the field. The company reported that its hydrogen trucks have logged over 550,000 miles with an impressive average fuel economy of 7.2 miles per kilogram of hydrogen. This performance outpaces the average Class 8 diesel truck, offering a 23% improvement in fuel efficiency on a diesel gallon equivalent basis. This not only underscores the operational efficiency of Nikola's FCEVs but also aligns with the company’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions.
Strategic Initiatives and Future Outlook
Nikola ( NASDAQ:NKLA ) is on track to complete the rollout of its revamped BEV "2.0" recall program by the end of 2024, showing its commitment to addressing past challenges and improving product reliability. The company is also exploring alternative revenue streams, including the sale of regulatory credits, which further bolsters its financial outlook.
Despite a challenging year for the electric vehicle (EV) industry, with many companies facing declining demand and stock price drops, Nikola’s strategic pivot towards hydrogen technology and its focus on fleet customers are beginning to yield results. With cash and cash equivalents standing at $256.3 million, Nikola is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory and capitalize on the expanding market for zero-emission vehicles.
Conclusion
Nikola Corporation’s Q2 performance is a testament to its strategic agility and commitment to innovation. By shifting its focus to hydrogen fuel cell technology, the company has not only met but exceeded market expectations, positioning itself as a leader in the zero-emissions transportation space. As the world moves towards greener technologies, Nikola’s ability to deliver high-performance, eco-friendly trucks will likely drive further growth and investor confidence in the quarters to come.
NKLA Nikola Corporation Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of NKLA Nikola Corporation prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 8usd strike price Puts with
an expiration date of 2024-8-16,
for a premium of approximately $1.09.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
WKHS will it rally 50% or fall below its ATL WKHS has been sideways or down since the bullrun in late February. Another EV small cap
is nearing bankruptcy unless it finds a suitor ( FSR trying to attract Nissan) WKHS has a niche
with its delivery trucks ( like for Amazon Prime and USPS). Is the concept to production
hangups and slow downs going to cause its demise? Trader confidence is lacking or are
traders simply waiting for the best possible price? Price is now about to match the all-imte lows
of mid February. Will there be support or will it fall.? Dould WKHS dead cat bounce to rise
to recent high pivots? This may be interesting and potentially profitable.
RIVN falls to fair value for swing LONGRIVN is here on a 30 minute chart with VWAP bands and a dual time frame RSI added. Price
fell from the top of the trend up after the last earnings. It is now between the mean
anchored VWAP and the first lower VWAP line which is where the reversal occurred on May 8th.
I will look for an entry long on a lower time frame chart. I am looking for a 1.75 move up
toward the second upper VWAP line in this trade while risking 0.25 making the reward for
the risk taken about 7.
Is FFIE running to earnings early ? Maybe yes. LONGFFIE is a penny stock of interest as it is also in the EV sector. Earnings are coming. In the past
two days it jumped 82%. The stock is trading 99.9% ( no exaggeration ) down from its all-time
high. On the 15-minute chart, price has jumped above its EMA cloud which inflected upward.
A massive volume inflow peaked the price action in keeping with Wychoff's theory. 42 million
shares traded yesterday morning. The EMA cloud settings are periods are 14/56/140 ( long story
multiples of 7). The slow and fast RSI lines had a golden cross of fast over slow and
both over the 50 are quite demonstrative of bullish momentum. ( settings 3 hrs and 1
week). I will play this long until earnings- adding 100 to 1000 shares per day at the low
of the day on a 5-15 minute chart. I will also look at the options chain for March 15th.
Given that WKHS did the same thing and reports the same time, something behind the
stage curtains is underway. Penny stocks are always risky. My analysis has the risk diminished
here.
GOEV reverses LongGOEV (Canoo) on a 240- minute chart shows an early reversal from a three wee trend down.
The chop zone indicator shows the signa over the choppiness in the past few trading sessions.
Prc rose from the support of the first lower anchored VWAP line
I will take a long trade here targeting the recent pivots as shown on the chart with a stop
loss set at the low pivot immediately to the left of current price. This is a potential 50%
profit trade if profits are realized in equal thirds at the targets and the stop loss is advanced
in regular increments to protect again a momentum fade.
RIVN a trade from deeply undervalued LONGRIVN on a 60 minute chart with set of anchored VWAP lines appears to be finishing a double
bottom at the 8.5 level and making a move higher in a VWAP band breakout potnetially rising
to the mean anchored VWAP and beyond it into the upper bands. I will take a long trage here
with the targets in a textbox on the chart. I am interested in the action of the lesser EV stock
while TSLAs fundamentals are challenged by earnings constraints in the face of downward
pricing and whether discounting will stimulate demand or instead accelerate the path down as
investors may perceive the pricing scheme as a sign of weakness ( or even desperation).
GOEV -Canoo reverses while TSLA slumps into earnings LONGGOEV was in the $ 4.50 to $5.50 range 1-2 months ago and on the 60 minute chart appears to
be in a round bottom or doble bottom reversal concurrently with TSLA continuing to fall on
the expectation of an earnings miss. GOEV's last earnings was a beat. It burned about half the
cash that the analysts forecasted. The relative trend index indicator suggests a trend up is
developing. A red flag is that volume is at or below the running mean. My plan is to watch
GOEV for a rise in trading volumes before entertaining a long trade here. The Price Volume
product Trend is helpful in that regard. While it currently has a positive slope it is minimal.
I will watch for something a bit steeper. I am expecting the Price Momentum Oscillator will
soon cross the horizontal zero and provide another entry signal.
WKHS a risky penny EV StockWorkhorse could start working again as the 50 minute chart is showing a suggestion of a reversal
after a long trend down. Price has passed over the longest moving average which is a SMA20.
The EMA cloud ( 100, 200, 300) is starting to turn up and price has crossed over it. All in all,
there are some golden crosses here. Blue buying volume spikes are seen on the relative
volume indicator and they are about six times the running mean. In a bit of divergence the
price volume trend has oscillated up. Overall, this is a penny stock with a price under $ 1.00
It appears to be starting a trend up. I will zoom into a lower time frame and find a optimal
entry. I amy get call options as well. The risk in the trade should be limited by a stop loss
wide enough to allow for a true range or even twice that. My target is about 1.15 the price level
at the time of the last good earnings report. This is about 300% upside. It will probably never
get there but hay you never know. Stranger things have happened.
NKLA can move higher from a support level LONGNKLA had news this week with the litigation over the Badger brand. The news is over and the
real trend is hydrogen stations in California and perhaps Western Canada impacting the
buildout of infrastructure with the help of Biden administration handouts. NKLA has corrected
and fallen into the support of the Fib retracement. Zig and zag I look to enter a long trade
here and target the recent pivot high with an initial target of half way there as a retrace of
a retrace. This would be about 1.02 but I will round it down to 0.99 to be below the
psychological level. This is a risky penny stock trade. With FSR falling off the exchange,
NKLA is getting some extra trader interest which may help carry it higher. This is a 30 minute
chart and meant to be appropriate for intraday or short duration swing traders.
NKLA - Watch at or below 50 centsNKLA - Nikola is approaching the 50 Cents mark. A brief opportunity in a period of price weakness? Growth and loss become exponential at this point. A move from .50 to 1.00 would be a 100% increase in price. A move from .50 to .25 would be a 50% loss. Are prices below .50 optimal prices for scalpers or swing traders? Or, is it time to build a less expensive position trade?
NKLA can this EV penny stock stop the cash burn/ News LONGNKLA on the 120 minute chart has been in a falling wedge pattern and had the news of
hydrogen stations ready to go in the all important California market and now printed a
countertrend breakout over the wedge. Can Nikola stop the cash burn? Can it prevent further
shareholder dilution? Is the board protecting the interests of shareholders ? While this gets
figured out can price rise to the anchored mean VWAP and put in a 10% jump in the short term?
I intend to find out.
NKLA likely to move up towards 1.47 and beyondHere is a bullish chart of Nikola Corporation. This looks good for going upward in the coming months. The chart outlines various resistances it has on its way. The first one is a 3M resistance 3MR1 where the price is headed currently. I think the probability is very high that the price on this current move pushes upto 3MR1 after having some resistance and pullback at weekly resistance WR1 level. I will keep watching this one very closely. Current P/B ratio for this stock is also very favorable as it is just above 1 (1.38). This signifies the stock has come into undervalued zone. Let me know what you think.
NKLA Stock Patterns Suggest a Bullish Bias LONGNKLA on the one hour chart shows several stock patterns which may suggest a trader to
sefely deploy a small portion of available risk captial here to have a good chance to make a
profit.
In the first instance, a "W" or " reverse cowgirl" pattern is seen as handrawn iin blue line. This
is bullish like the "M" pattern is bearish. The second pattern is an assymetrical head and
shoulders pattern with a rising to the right neckline suggesting a diagnonal rising resistance
over future time. Lastly a high tight flat pattern is seen with the flag of consolidation.
The flag pole is about 0.08 in height. Bullish continuation is forecasted by the pattern.
The RSI indicator shows the fast green line cycling up and down and holding in the lows above
50. All in all this is decidedly bullish. Fundamentally, NKLA burns cash and raises more diluting
its shareholders.
OF particular interest to this traders, call options for a strike of 0.50 for Fri Feb 16 went from
0.60 to 0.26 or 4.5X of the course of the day.
Stock shares or call options IMO NKLA is a buy - I am doubling my position and will watch it
on Friday using indicator alerts on the 15 minute chart. while my screen is showing other
action.
FSR- a risky penny stock long trade in the EV space LONGFSR has been mentioned as a bankruptcy candidate. It has been on a super trend down on
reports that it does not have enough cash reserves to meet operating expenses and production
quotas. However, any review of the chart in the past quarter shows that it is capable of
counter trends where it suddenly gains 10 to 20% in market cap in a short period only to give
it back in the aftermath. It is these countertrends that I have traded recently including
late February and the earliest days of March. At present, FSR price is low in the recent
high volume area of the profile and the Trend Strength Index is shows some volatility.
The LuxAlgo predictive regression forecast is for higher price action in the near term.
I will take a long trade here targeting first the trendline resistance of the falling wedge pattern
and then the mean VWAP line if the breakout occurs. The trade is expectant for a 20-25%
return in a few days consistent with a prior breakout. I will set a stop loss below the support
trendline at 0.116 to decrease the risk while raising the stop loss upon reaching the upper
trendline to 0.13. Call options for 4/19 will be entertained striking 0.50/
Nikola how low can it go?I think we have a nice double bottom with 30-50% possible down side and huge upside. It's a gamble, but I am stock gambler. I took a very small position. I like the chart and suspect this could under accumulation. Lots of analysts have much higher targets than here. Nikola sold off the Badger line to a close friend. Will this allow them more time to focus on electric / hydrogen trucks and gain edge again??? Not financial advice, DYOR.
NKLA Nikola Corp Nikola Corporation Reports Earnings Results for the Full Year Ended December 31, 2023

Nikola Corporation reported earnings results for the full year ended December 31, 2023. For the full year, the company reported revenue was USD 35.84 million compared to USD 49.73 million a year ago. Net loss was USD 966.28 million compared to USD 784.24 million a year ago.
Basic loss per share from continuing operations was USD 1.08 compared to USD 1.67 a year ago. Basic loss per share was USD 1.21 compared to USD 1.78 a year ago. Diluted loss per share was USD 1.21 compared to USD 1.78 a year ago.
WKHS Short Interest Rose Dramatically a Week Ago LONGThe daily chart of short interest for WKHS rose 6X beginning a week ago. The level is 13X
what it was in November. Coupled with the price action of today it is entirely plausible that
shorts are liquidating quickly given today's 25% breakout. Buyng to cover getting synergized
with new buyers could cause a trendline slope to escalate substantially morphing something
more or less curvilinear into more of a parabolic fit to the " trajectory". So the questions are
is this a short squeeze? How high of a price before the momentum slows or fails? Is it too late
to get in? Are other penny stocks potentially behaving in a similar fashion right now?
Is it even possible to short the shares of this penny stock or is it all put options covering
100 shares per each? This will be interesting for sure no matter how it plays out. I have
doubled my position earlier today and it was not a small one. Once I see signs of consolidation,
or some moving averages going flat towards a zero slope or a mass index indicator triggering.
I will take a piece out for the realization of some profit and hold the rest for whatever the
next more might be. I think the first sign that a squeeze is underway if for the tremendous
short interest volume to waterfall off a cliff.
Can FSR move higher? LONGFSR on the one hour chart fell from a triple top in mid July into the lower range
of the volume profile's high volume area then bounced higher in a series of higher
highs but then rolled over and fell again/ It has consolidated sideways about
that POC line and now is above it. The indicators including Directional Index
Zero Lag MACD and dual time frame RSI all indicate a return to bullish momentum.
I will take a long trade the horizontal levels on the chart served as tiered targets
for a risk managed trade. I will take some call options contracts as well. I think FSR
may follow the market leader in TSLA for a bit.
NKLA gets some momentum LONGNKLA had a nice long test run of one of its trucks in California this month. It signed a deal
for a 10-year hydrogen refueling. Not a big deal, but may be the first company to sell fuel
along with its vehicles and get government subsidies along the way. The days of doing photo
shoots of a prototype truck rolling downhill are clearly in the past. While alwys speculative,
NKLA is getting more search hits on Bezinga and Zacks suggesting there is trader interest and
maybe even some investors.
On the 120 minute chart, NKLA has ascended about 25% in the past week. It is approaching
the intermediate and longer-term anchored mean VWAP lines in black. It is there that volalility
and volume are expected to be the highest. This is 0.84 to 0.89. In this zone, institutional
traders may take or exit positions. The upper end of the high volume area is at 0.90.
I will take a trade here expecting price to go about 13% higher to 0.88. There it will either
continue the VWAP band breakout or be rejected from that resistance level. The RSI and MACD
indicators show bullish momentum to validate the long trade idea. An additional
factor is whether a short squeeze could ensue. In the near term from now until March, the put
to call ratio is 0.05 to 0.25 making for very few near-term put options. However, in the
April monthly the overall put-to-call ratio is 3.5. This suggests an expectation of a good rise
rise in the next 1-2 months and then a correction or breakdown at 3 months. In July the ratio
falls to 0.05 at least for the time being. If a short squeeze does get set up, put positions
in April will be liquidated in short order and the buying of call options to cover those puts
may accelerate the trend up.
Overall, my target is 0.88 while the stop loss is 0.73 under the evolving POC line of the volume
profile. Since my call options printed a 60% profit for the day, I will add to the position
to capture more of the expected move. ( $1.00 Strike 2/9 expiration currently $2.00 per
contract- no stop loss total loss vs expected gain 250%+)
