What's Going On With Enovix Stock Tuesday?

Enovix Corp ENVX shares are trading higher Tuesday after the company announced it completed site acceptance testing of Fab2 and secured a landmark purchase order.

What Happened: After the market close on Monday, Enovix announced it completed site acceptance testing for its high-volume manufacturing line at Fab2 in late December. The battery manufacturing company plans to begin mass production later this year.

The site acceptance testing validates the readiness of the company's manufacturing equipment and marks the final stage of factory acceptance testing before commercial-scale production begins. Shares jumped about 5% on the news.

Tuesday morning, Enovix announced it received a sizable pre-paid purchase order from a Silicon Valley-based global technology leader in AI and immersive technologies. The company said the order is for a battery solution tailored for next-generation head-worn mixed reality wearables.

Enovix said it’s scheduled to deliver initial shipments by mid-2025 under terms of the agreement.
