1. Business Overview
Enovix specializes in the design, development, and manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries utilizing a proprietary cell architecture that enhances energy density. This innovative approach allows for the use of silicon as the sole active material in the anode, contrasting with traditional graphite-based methods.

2. Q3 2025 Highlights
In the third quarter of 2025, Enovix reported revenue of $8.0 million, marking a significant 85% increase from $4.3 million in Q3 2024.

Notably, the performance of the AI-1™ smartphone battery was validated as having the highest energy density reported for its category. The company successfully delivered over 1,000 AI-1™ battery packs to its leading customer and provided product samples to nine additional manufacturers in the smart eyewear sector.
Defense Sector Growth
Enovix's operations in South Korea delivered over $20 million worth of products to major military contractors during the quarter.
