Shares of luxury electric car manufacturer Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) jumped 7.1% in the afternoon session after the company announced a 38% year-over-year increase in second-quarter deliveries, though the figures fell short of analyst expectations. Lucid announced it delivered 3,309 vehicles in the second quarter, a significant jump from the 2,394 vehicles delivered in the same period last year. However, this number missed the consensus estimate of 3,611 vehicles from Wall Street analysts. The company also reported producing 3,863 vehicles during the quarter. For the first half of 2025, Lucid produced 6,075 vehicles and delivered 6,418, indicating it has been selling down previously built inventory. Investors are reacting positively to the strong year-over-year growth, even with the delivery miss.
