Serve Robotics Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

Delivery Volume growth of nearly 80% quarter over quarter

Launched Atlanta market and announced Chicago launch in the coming weeks

Second quarter revenue of $642 thousand, a 46% increase versus Q1 2025

Maintained a strong liquidity position of $183 million

SAN FRANCISCO, August 7, 2025 -- Serve Robotics Inc. (the “Company” or “Serve”) (Nasdaq: SERV), a leading autonomous sidewalk delivery company, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

“Serve is building the world ahead, where autonomous last mile transportation is ubiquitous and foundational,” said Dr. Ali Kashani, Serve’s Co-founder and CEO. “This quarter marked a major step forward as we expanded into new markets, scaled operations, and fueled our autonomy flywheel to an unprecedented degree. With every successful delivery, Serve’s growing fleet gets smarter, stronger, and more efficient.”

“Our disciplined execution this year has positioned us to scale confidently. After quadrupling our fleet in the first half of the year, we plan to quadruple yet again in the back half of 2025,” said Brian Read, CFO of Serve. “We’re entering a new phase of growth through 2026 with expanding market reach, improving operational efficiency, and stronger expected revenue generation resulting in projected annualized $60M-$80M revenue upon full utilization of our 2000-robot fleet.”

Business Highlights

Continued Fleet Growth: Successfully delivered over 120 new third-generation robots ahead of schedule in the second quarter. Daily supply hours increased by over 340% compared to Q2 2024.

Continued Volume Growth: During the second quarter, delivery volume increased over 78% sequentially from Q1.

Expanded Reach: Launched new metro market in Atlanta and expanded footprint in the Los Angeles and Miami markets. Also successfully completed our first Middle East pilot in downtown Doha.

Partnership Expansion: Following the end of Q2, we began delivering for Little Caesars, the third largest pizza chain in the U.S. This national partnership highlights our strategic focus to be the preferred delivery partner for key merchants.

Financial Highlights
Revenue: Revenue for Q1 2025 was in line with guidance and increased 46% on a sequential basis to $642 thousand. Fleet Revenues, which include Delivery and Branding Revenue, grew $117 thousand, representing a 55% increase quarter over quarter.
Balance Sheet: Strong liquidity position of $183 million as of June 30, 2025, expected to provide runway through the end of 2026.
Outstanding Shares: Approximately 59.3 million shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2025.

Outlook

Guidance Reiterated: Projected annualized revenue run-rate of $60 to $80 million once our 2,000-robot fleet is fully deployed and reaches target utilization, which we anticipate will occur during 2026.

Guidance for Q3: With revenue growth between 170% and 215% year over year, we are projecting $600 to $700 thousand revenue in Q3.

Fleet Scale: We anticipate deployment acceleration in 2H that is expected to more than double our robot fleet in Q3.

Forward Looking Statements

This Serve Robotics Inc. press release contains “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the context of the statement and generally arise when we or our management are discussing our beliefs, estimates or expectations. Such statements generally include the words “believes,” “plans,” “intends,” “targets,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “expects,” “estimates,” “suggests,” “anticipates,” “outlook,” “continues,” “guidance,” “projects,” or similar expressions. These statements are not historical facts or guarantees of future performance, but represent management’s belief at the time the statements were made regarding future events which are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s future revenue generation, timing of the Company’s robot deployment, the Company’s ability to expand to additional markets, capabilities of the Company’s robots, the Company’s operational efficiency, and the Company’s timing and ability to scale to commercial production.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and in the Company’s subsequent SEC filings. The Company can give no assurance that the plans, intentions, expectations or strategies as reflected in or suggested by those forward-looking statements will be attained or achieved. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on information available to the Company as of the date hereof, and the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

To supplement the Company’s financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance are included in this release: non-GAAP general and administrative expense, non-GAAP research and development expense, non-GAAP operations expense, non-GAAP sales and marketing expense, non-GAAP operating expense, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per Common share.

The Company believes that providing this non-GAAP information in addition to the GAAP financial information allows investors to view the financial results in the way the Company views its operating results. The Company also believes that providing this information allows investors to not only better understand the Company’s financial performance but also better evaluate the information used by management to evaluate and measure such performance.

As such, the Company believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of its financial statements provides the reader with useful supplemental information that allows for greater transparency in the review of the company’s financial and operational performance. The Company defines its non-GAAP measures by excluding stock-based compensation, transaction costs and finance lease purchase option.

Reconciliations of GAAP to these adjusted non-GAAP financial measures are included in the tables presented. When analyzing the Company’s operating results, investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as substitutes for the comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

To the extent that the Company presents any forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, the Company does not present a quantitative reconciliation of such measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure (or otherwise present such forward-looking GAAP measures) because it is impractical to do so.
