FORT PIERCE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 7, 2022 / Forza X1, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRZA) ("Forza" or the "Company"), a new developer of electric sport boats with a mission to inspire the adoption of sustainable recreational boating, today reported operational highlights and financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

"To date, we have completed the design of the 25-foot FX1 dual console model, including hull, deck and small parts," said Jim Leffew, Chief Executive Officer and President of Forza X1, Inc. "This design has gone from an intellectual concept in CAD to fiberglass and foam plugs, fiberglass molds and, finally, working boat parts in just over one year. On October 28th, the running surface of the boat and all major components were tested successfully for several hours on the Indian River Lagoon in Fort Pierce, Florida. While the motor and control systems have been successfully trialed previously, this was the first voyage including all major components, production batteries, fully functioning "alpha" engine design, control system - including the 22" Garmin screen, and Osmosis telematics unit. The performance of the boat exceeded all expectations and will provide a great baseline for improvements, iterations, and design enhancements. We anticipate revenues from the sale of these fully integrated electric boats and motors to commence in late 2023. Forza X1 will continue to build prototype engines and boats for the next six to nine months."

"As announced in October, Forza X1 leased an 8,800 square foot industrial space in Old Fort, NC which will be utilized until our factory in McDowell County, NC is completed. The Company plans to manufacture and test Forza's electric motors and control systems on this property," added Jim Leffew.

"While we are working in Old Fort, the Company will be finalizing plans on its new factory. The Company intends to build our new facility over time in various phases, starting with an initial 60,000 square foot plant that would have a capacity of up to 600 boats annually. When all phases are completed, we expect the manufacturing facility could be as large as 100,000 square feet with production capabilities for up to 1,000 boats annually. We are currently targeting a Q4 2023 date for our factory's completion. Until then, our FX1 boats will be constructed at Twin Vee's facility in Fort Pierce. The clearing contractor has been selected and expects to mobilize in November," stated Leffew.

"Forza X1 also hired a site manager for the North Carolina property, Mark Miller. Mark has previous plant manager experience in marine manufacturing for Cobia boats from 2006 to 2009. Additional mechanical and electrical engineering support has been added in the month of October with the thrust of their activity centered on lowering component costs and enhancing manufacturability," added Leffew.

Highlights for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2022:

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $13,941,000 as of September 30, 2022.
The Company had working capital of approximately $14,190,000 as of September 30, 2022.
