Mullen Automotive shares rise 6.3% to $4.25 on cost reduction and consolidation measures in order to reduce expenses as the consumer electric vehicle sector and overall market continue to face pressure.
The stock is down 71% on the year so far.
The automotive company said its actions are expected to reduce roughly $170 million in the company's operating and investing cash flow expenses over the next 12 months when compared to a 12-month period ended Sept. 30, 2023.
Mullen's planned changes include significantly curtailing noncommercial programs, expanding its national commercial dealer network and integrating two engineering centers to improve efficiencies.
