Rivian, Inc. (RIVN - Free Report) is slated to release second-quarter 2025 results on Aug. 5, after the closing bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s loss and revenues is pegged at 65 cents per share and $1.26 billion, respectively.
For the fiscal second quarter, the consensus estimate for RIVN’s earnings per share has moved up 8 cents in the past 90 days. Its bottom-line estimates imply a rise of 46.28% from the year-ago reported number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues suggests year-over-year growth of 9.04%.
RIVN surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the trailing four quarters and missed twice, the average surprise being 10.81%. This is depicted in the graph below:
In first-quarter 2025, Rivian incurred a quarterly loss of 41 cents per share, narrower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 80 cents.

The EV manufacturer posted revenues of $1.24 billion, which surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.04 billion and rose 3% from the year-ago quarter.
Things to Note
In the second quarter of 2025, Rivian delivered 10,661 vehicles, down from 13,790 units in the same period last year, marking two consecutive quarters of year-over-year decline.
