Foxconn struck a deal in November to take a near-20% stake in the money-losing U.S. firm for up to $170 million. It has since invested $52.7 million and is balking at purchasing additional shares, citing a breach of their agreement, Lordstown said. "There is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern," Lordstown said in a filing, referring to its dispute with Foxconn over the investment deal. Their course of conduct has resulted in material — and what is becoming irreparable — harm to the company," Lordstown said in a statement. Lordstown shares, which at one point tumbled more than 50% on Monday, closed down 23%, or 12 cents, at 40 cents, in heavy trading.
Lordstown said Foxconn cited the delisting notice the Ohio-based company received from Nasdaq in a letter alleging the breach. Lordstown shares were trading mid-morning at $0.39, down 13 cents a share. Lordstown warned that "there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern". Without a resolution with Foxconn, other funding or partners, it said it could be forced to file for bankruptcy. Lordstown Motors bought a former General Motors (GM.N) small car assembly plant and equipment for $20 million in Ohio after the Detroit automaker closed it in March 2019.
