Faraday Future Founder and Global CEO YT Jia
Shares Weekly Investor Update: FF’s

Largest-Ever 23-Unit Robot Order Marks Another Step Toward Becoming a

Pathbreaker and Driving
Force in the Global B2C Robotics Market

●

FF has entered a strategic partnership with Sequoia
Education Center, a leading K-12 education group in North America and signed a sales contract for 23 FF EAI robots. The two parties
will work closely together on K-12 robotics curriculum development, robotics education, teacher training, youth developer programs,
and other areas.

●

FF has delivered a Master humanoid robot to a well-known
medical institution in Los Angeles, the first real-world implementation of FF’s EAI robots in a healthcare use case.

●

On May 22 nd , FF successfully held its
annual stockholders’ meeting, with all proposals receiving roughly 80% approval support.

Los Angeles,
CA (May 25, 2026) - Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF”
or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today shared a weekly business update from
YT Jia, Founder and Global CEO of FF.

“Welcome
to Week 56 of our weekly report. First, I’d like to share two business updates, along with a piece of good news on the capital
front. The first major update on EAI Devices: FF has entered into a strategic partnership with Sequoia Education Center, a leading K-12
education group in North America and signed a sales contract for 23 FF EAI robots. The two parties will work closely together on K-12
robotics curriculum development, robotics education, teacher training, youth developer programs, and other areas. This partnership is
significant on four levels:

1. Sequoia Education Center is the third educational institution
we have signed with recently. This partnership creates a dual entry point into both B2B educational institutions and B2C family education.
It will help FF become a pathbreaker, ecosystem builder, mass-adoption driver, and leader in the global B2C robotics market and its real-world
use cases. It also positions FF as a trailblazer and driving force behind the world’s first robotics education ecosystem serving
both B2B educational institutions and B2C family education.

2. The
23-unit order is FF’s largest sales order to date for humanoid and bionic robots, helping us move steadily toward our sales target
for the first delivery season.

3. By
becoming an FF Par (FF Partner) and leveraging Sequoia Education Center’s full-cycle education service system, both parties will
jointly expand FF’s reach among B2C users in education use cases and accelerate the entry of EAI robots into the physical world
and real life.

4. Sequoia Education Center has also become our developer partner and joined
our open-source and open developer platform. Together, we will support the growth of three types of developers, especially by bringing
more Young Developers into our developer ecosystem, and help bring FF’s open-source and open developer platform to life first in
education use cases.

Next,
we will continue to expand this model and replicate it across key U.S. states, accelerating the implementation of our Three-in-One strategy.
The second major update on EAI Devices: FF has delivered our Master humanoid robot to a well-known medical institution in Los Angeles,
the first real-world implementation of our EAI robots in a healthcare use case. This represents another step in FF EAI robots’
steady expansion into higher-barrier, higher-value verticals such as healthcare, and further validates the tremendous potential of humanoid
robots in real, must-have use cases in the U.S.

The collaboration between FF AI-Robotics and RobotShop is progressing smoothly. We welcome
everyone to visit our storefront on RobotShop and place orders for FF’s EAI robotic products. At the same time, both parties are
actively exploring deeper strategic cooperation opportunities. In addition, several major mainstream e-commerce platforms in North America
have proactively expressed interest in partnering with us on robotics sales, and related discussions are also moving forward positively.

Here’s another piece of great news: on May
22, FF successfully held its annual stockholders’ meeting, with all proposals receiving roughly 80% approval support. I want to
sincerely thank all of our stockholders for their continued support and for their recognition in our EAI robotics and EAI vehicle strategies,
the business direction, and our new leadership team. We remain fully committed to our “Stockholder First” principle, and our
goal of maximizing long-term stockholder value.

Now let’s move to EAI Brain & the Open
Source and Open Developer Platform.

The EAI Brain and Skills ecosystem continue to evolve.
To date, we have developed dozens of Skills-some created in-house and others by third-party developers-covering a range of
scenarios including education, security, reception and guided tours, and companion services.

We believe every industry will eventually have its
own specialized professional robots. We’re building what we call a “Robot Vocational Academy” - combining different
hardware configurations, EAI Agents, and Skills packages tailored for different real-world roles and applications. Starting next week,
we’ll be introducing and demonstrating our various in-house developed Skills. Stay tuned!

The foundational infrastructure of our developer
platform is nearly complete, and our goal is to make robot development as easy as developing mobile apps. The platform will include six
major developer tools. Two of them are already completed: BrainBlocks, a block-based programming tool designed for K-12 student
developers, and EAI Soul, a language engine designed to shape robot personality and conversational style. The remaining tools will begin
rolling out later this month, and we’ll be sharing more details very soon.

Finally, a quick update on our EAI Data Factory.
Data collection and training efforts are continuing to move forward across multiple categories. We currently divide our data into four
major types: simulation data, embodiment-free data, real-world teleoperation data, and real-world autonomous robot data. Our decentralized
real-world robot data upload software has already been integrated, and testing is currently underway. We expect to complete our first
decentralized collection of real-world robot data sometime in June. That’s all for this week. See you next week!”
