LiveWire reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $7.9 million, up 38% from a year earlier, and a narrower net loss of $18.6 million. The company also disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, formed a special restructuring committee, appointed a Chief Restructuring Officer, and withdrew its 2026 operating loss guidance. For shareholders, the improved sales and loss figures are offset by financing risk tied to a December 2027 debt maturity.
