EVgo has marked a significant milestone by going public on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "EVGO". Founded a decade ago by David Crane (now CEO of CRIS, EVgo's SPAC partner), EVgo has transformed from a pioneer in early EV charging to today's leader in metropolitan fast charging infrastructure.

The company has built its success on three key pillars:

• Metropolitan fast charging deployment
• Fleet charging solutions
• Innovative software for customized charging experiences

With over 250,000 EV drivers relying on EVgo's charging network, the company maintains strong partnerships with OEMs, site hosts, utilities, and government entities. The EVgo team has established itself as the operator of America's most reliable and innovative fast-charging network.

Market projections show significant growth potential:

• 2020: 1+ million battery electric vehicles in the U.S.
• 2030 (projected): 25 million vehicles
• 2040 (projected): 100+ million vehicles

This public listing provides EVgo with capital to:

• Accelerate infrastructure development
• Maintain financial discipline
• Engage with policymakers
• Advance climate change initiatives

The shift to electric vehicles is now inevitable, driven by multiple factors:

• Engineers appreciate their efficiency and design
• Public officials value zero emissions
• Fleet managers benefit from lower total ownership costs
• Drivers enjoy the superior driving experience

EVgo's mission is to ensure charging infrastructure enables, rather than inhibits, this market transformation. The company remains committed to expanding its public network, electrifying new sectors, and encouraging EV adoption among tens of millions of drivers.

The future of transportation is electric, and EVgo is positioned to play a crucial role in this transformation while delivering long-term value for shareholders.
