Arizona Tribune - Phoenix Motor's EdisonFuture International Signs Strategic Cooperation Agreement with Guorun Venture Capital for RMB 1 Billion M&A Fund to Establish EV Manufacturing Sites in China

"We are excited to collaborate with Guorun to establish a strong manufacturing footprint in China," said Denton Peng, CEO of Phoenix Motor. "This cooperation allows us to integrate our leading EV solutions with China's robust supply chain ecosystem, creating a scalable and cost-efficient platform to serve both domestic and international markets. It is a pivotal step in our mission to establish EdisonFuture International's global presence and enhance Phoenix's long-term revenue and profitability."

Under the agreement, Guorun will mobilize funds to establish a specialized M&A investment entity dedicated to acquiring strategic EV production assets, including land, factories, equipment, and intellectual property in China, as designated by EdisonFuture International. This partnership marks a significant milestone for Phoenix Motor's international expansion strategy, leveraging the Company's advanced EV technologies, brand, and intellectual property alongside China's extensive supply chain and low-cost capital to accelerate growth and profitability.

EdisonFuture International, based in Hong Kong, was formed as the global expansion arm of Phoenix Motor, targeting key markets across Asia, Europe, and South America. By securing this strategic funding initiative, the Company aims to solidify its foothold in China, one of the world's largest EV markets, while optimizing operational efficiencies and cost structures.

The agreement underscores Phoenix Motor's commitment to scaling its international business through strategic financial partnerships and infrastructure expansion. By integrating Chinese engineering resources and capital efficiency with Phoenix's innovative EV technologies, the Company is well-positioned to meet the growing demand for commercial and light-duty electric vehicles globally.

This initiative aligns with Phoenix's broader vision of advancing sustainable transportation solutions and expanding access to zero-emission vehicles worldwide.
