LOS ANGELES: Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future,” “FF” or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today announced that FF AI-Robotics has signed an MOU with RobotShop, one of North America’s leading robotics-focused e-commerce platforms. RobotShop is FF’s first FF PAR partner in the EAI robotics category. As part of this MOU, FF's EAI robotics products are already live and available for purchase on RobotShop's platform, with the broader partnership framework to be further developed under the terms of the agreement.

With FF's products now live, professional buyers across RobotShop's global network can purchase FF EAI robotics today. The Company believes that the following three strategic pillars define the benefits of the collaboration with RobotShop:
First, industry validation of the FF PAR model - now in market. RobotShop becoming FF's first FF PAR partner in EAI robotics, with products now live on the platform, is a significant t external validation to date of FF's co-creation ecosystem and online direct-sales model. The model is no longer a concept; it is operating in market.
Second, a core gateway to global professional users - open today. With products live on RobotShop, FF achieves immediate product coverage across North America and other core global markets. This directly addresses a major constraint on the sales ramp and substantially compresses the time and cost of building proprietary channels. Professional buyers can purchase FF EAI robotics on RobotShop starting now.
Third, channel infrastructure for FF’s scaled EAI education strategy - activated RobotShop's core user base overlaps closely with the EAI education ecosystem FF is building. With FF products now live on the platform, this channel is actively supporting FF's effort to build the first scaled EAI education system in the U.S. FF's EAI Robotics business is entering scaled deployment and has been validated by both the education sector and the capital markets. This reflects the Company's first-mover advantage as the first U.S. company to deliver both humanoid and bionic robots and to comprehensively expand into the education market.
“Our partnership with RobotShop allows us to bring our full portfolio of EAI Robotics’ products to our users with a practical path to adoption, in an efficient, convenient platform which supports them at every step, from product discovery to distribution,” said Chris Chen, Co-CEO of FF AI-Robotics. “This partnership is a perfect fit for us as it offers strong transactional support for our mission of becoming a physical AI ecosystem company focused on EAI Robotics, matched with RobotShop’s strong global presence and reputation in the robotics industry.”
As of April 30, 2026, FF has shipped 68 EAI robots with a positive product gross margin. May shipments are expected to continue to accelerate as the Company progresses steadily toward its first delivery quarter target of 200 units. The Company expects cumulative shipments to exceed 1,000 units in 2026. More importantly, market recognition of FF's EAI Robotics strategy and execution continues to grow, with the foundation for subsequent scaled deployment in process.
Through ongoing robot deliveries, ramp-up, and use case expansion, FF is building a self-reinforcing “Device-Data-Brain” business model, where scaled device deliveries and deployment drive data collection and training, which feeds the AI brain, which improves product capability, which accelerates sales and deployment, which generates more data, which advances an even smarter AI brain. Through this accelerating flywheel, FF aims to rapidly convert its first-delivery first-mover advantage in robotics into a sustainably leading position.
Looking ahead, on the B2B education front, the Company will focus on advancing strategic partnerships and robot procurement agreements with the first batch of K-12 schools and universities, as well as EAI education summer camps and similar initiatives. On the B2C family education front, FF expects to accelerate execution of its strategy to bring education robots into households, continuing to drive the deployment of the first scaled EAI education system in the United States. Driven by the “EAI Robotics + EAI EV” Dual-Engine Strategy, the Company is entering a new phase of growth.
