“I see us on the cutting edge again of the auto industry, but the new generation of the auto industry. We were at the cutting edge of the combustion engine and now we’re at the cutting edge of electric or, should I say, alternative fuels and automated,” Coviello said.
There is more happening at the Lordstown Ohio plant than meets the eye as nobody is saying anything yet.
It is undoubtedly a fork in the road for Fisker. Guy Coviello, president and CEO of the Youngstown-Warren Regional Chamber said there was never any agreement between Fisker and Foxconn.
“It seemed like the media portrayed it that way, and it seemed like people talked about it that way, but the fact is that Fisker never entered into an agreement. Really, when you look at it from that perspective, it’s no loss,” Coviello said.
Despite the bruised PEAR, local leaders are still optimistic
Because of The Pending Lawsuit against Foxconn, Nobody has seen the specific details of the agreement and or any signatures confirming the sale in writing or made publicly
LandX has yet to register a stock symbol and some believe a merger acquisition of NU Ride Inc. is in their sights and to continue on.
Just like Fisker, Foxconn had no deal in writing with anybody nor did they pay the 170mn they owe LMC for the plant. NRDE NU Ride Inc.stock remains stable as a result of the big what if?

I'm not sure what you mean by an NDA. If it has to do with the asset sale to LandX, that's mostly public except for the trade secret aspect of the deal (that is, the trade secrets haven't become public). If it has to do with intellectual property that Lordstown owned, that NDA must be void at this point given that LandX owns those assets, so it can't be that. That is, Burns is not excluded from that deal since his company bought those assets. If there is some secret agreement with LandX, there will still have to be notification of that deal, even if the details are proprietary or quiet. The SEC receives and publishes on EDGAR redacted agreements all the time. So, if there is an NDA regarding the Endurance, they aren't keeping it a secret from Burns at all. So, your first statement doesn't make any sense. What does Nu Ride have that even needs an NDA? From what I can tell, nothing. They are a shell, no revenue, nor production, no trade secrets, nothing like that. I've looked for evidence of an NDA and have found nothing. Again, if it were part of the severance package when Burns left Lordstown, that is no longer in force as Burns owns that material now. If you are thinking of a non-compete clause, that's obviously not in force as LandX was a competitor to Lordstown, but not to Nu Ride.
I do remember LMC/Nu Ride Inc. does have a lawsuit against Foxconn/Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd. It is ongoing, and the motion to dismiss has not been acted on. As near as I can tell, the Omnibus hearing coming up has to do with the bankruptcy itself, and looks to be about cleaning up some of the loose ends from the bankruptcy. It has nothing to do with the Foxconn lawsuit. I do expect that the companies are negotiating for a settlement. That I agree with. You mentioned an NDA here, and I disagree with that for sure. That's not to say that the negotiations are public, as they aren't. What is public is that there is a lawsuit and that assumes that settlement conversations may be part of the lawsuit. I don't know how "Soon" this will be settled, but I don't think either company will leave it to the judge to decide. I think somewhere between $70 million and $200 million will be the settlement. It won't be billions.
In the mean time, "Wall Street doesn't know what to do and doesn't want to be trapped either" is a fair statement. There isn't a good reason to invest in Nu Ride as they don't have a business. The only current hope for income is the lawsuit, which will give the company cash and maybe a bump in price, at least in the short run. They still need to decide on what business they will pursue, whether they will do something like COOP (not EVs) or some other business. The current Board of Directors suited be an EV company, though I wouldn't rule it out.
Still not sure what the pictures have to do with Nu Ride, as they currently have nothing to do with Nu Ride. The sedan doesn't have anything to do with LandX, as near as I can tell.

No NDA with LandX. That was a public asset sale. I didn't see any reference to an NDA with that deal. That was a simple asset sale. If there was another agreement since, there would be notice of it even with an NDA.
No NDA with Foxconn. Those are public court hearings. That's not to say there isn't background negotiations which aren't public. But, for a court hearing, it wouldn't be a NDA, it would be a gag order, and there isn't one that I can find.
I'm not sure what those pictures have to do with anything. Yes, the van/truck is LANDX, but the sedan isn't them. SMH.

CEO William Gallagher turns companies around like he did with COOP
This is why directors are buying Large. Director Andrew Sole recently bought $1.2 million Class A common stock.
Managing Director
Bill Gallagher has more than 35 years of experience in finance, investment and financial restructurings. He brings deep expertise in credit analysis and has long-term management experience in the financial services industry.
Prior to joining M3, Bill was the Chief Executive Officer at WMIH Corp (NASDAQ:WMIH), a public acquisition corporation which was the successor to Washington Mutual, Inc., from May 2015 to July 2018. Bill was recruited to WMIH to oversee its acquisition strategy and manage its day-to-day affairs. While there, he worked closely with WMIH’s strategic financial partner, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. At WMIH, Bill’s responsibilities included reviewing, vetting and analyzing a large number of potential target companies from a variety of different sectors and industry groups. Ultimately, WMIH acquired Nationstar Mortgage Holdings (NYSE symbol NSM) to form Mr. Cooper Group (NASDAQ:COOP). Bill departed from WMIH upon the closing of the acquisition of Nationstar as his job at WMIH was completed.
Prior to WMIH, Bill was CEO and Chief Risk Officer at Capmark Financial Group, formerly known as GMAC Commercial Mortgage (from March 2009 to May 2015). Bill was retained by Capmark to manage its financial restructuring following the global economic crisis and was responsible for the management of the company’s day-to-day affairs, the restructuring of both the company and its assets (including its $15 billion commercial loan portfolio), its bankruptcy process, and its winding down and distribution of assets to creditors and other stakeholders. Capmark was a highly successful restructuring as Bill and his colleagues significantly increased the recovery value to Capmark’s creditors.
Before joining Capmark, Bill was the Chief Credit Officer of RBS Greenwich Capital, the US fixed income investment banking business of the Royal Bank of Scotland, where he was responsible for all aspects of credit risk management. While at RBS Greenwich, Bill was responsible for a wide variety of US corporations and buy-side companies, including corporate borrowers and debt issuers, financial institutions, industrial companies with captive finance businesses, and a variety of US corporations who traded various securities with or through RBS Greenwich.
Earlier in his career, Bill was a Vice President at First Boston Corporation in that firm’s credit risk management department. At First Boston, Bill was responsible for managing credit risk to a wide variety of corporate issuers and financial institutions. Bill began his career at Chemical Bank, where he completed the bank’s credit training program and then worked as a loan officer in the middle market division and a credit officer in the financial institutions division.
Bill has a B.S. in business administration from Syracuse University and an MBA from New York University.

This is 100% untrue. LandX bought Lordstown assets. It's as simple as that. Read the filings. That's it. There is nothing more to that purchase, No secret agreements, no plans from that purchase to merge with Nu Ride, for LandX to buy Nu Ride. Nothing. Nu Ride is not buying the assets back. There is not even a hint of anything like that.
As long as Burns is involved with LandX, there will not be a merger.
Why would this even be a thing. When Nu Ride was formed, they chose fund managers to run the company. They didn't choose EV car executives, or experts at all. The filings suggest that they will go somewhere else in terms of a business plan. Can they go back to making EVs? Sure, that's a possibility. To suggest any more than that is just hype, and not from the company, but from an investor who is impatient with dead money. The vehicles pictured have nothing to do with Nu Ride, obviously, everyone knows that, even you.
Good luck. I do think Nu Ride will do something. How "Huge" the announcement will be is an open question. That we will have to wait. I know there is an omnibus hearing on July 11, but I don't think there will be an announcement from that hearing. That has nothing to do with the suit against Foxconn, which, they may win, they may lose. Lordstown made significant mistakes that allowed Foxconn to end the deal. Lordstown is not simply a victim here, they made some stupid mistakes, as you yourself know.
