QuantumScape Corporation (ISIN US74767V1098) is planning a 100-megawatt-hour cell production line with Muehlbauer, targeted to start production in 2028. The announcement came with third-quarter figures showing a USD 84.48 million GAAP net loss, while the stock was trading at EUR 3.68 at Lang & Schwarz on October 22, 2026 at 10:51 p.m. CEST. StockTitan reported the production plan from the October 21 filing.

Production moves beyond the pilot line

The planned facility would be QuantumScape's first commercial-scale mass-production line, with output aimed at data-center and advanced-solutions applications. The Eagle Line is already fully operational and producing higher volumes of QSE-5 cells for customer sampling, but the 100 MWh facility remains a future buildout. QuantumScape said the line is part of its plan to scale beyond the Eagle Line.

What does 100 MWh mean?

The 2028 target gives the manufacturing plan a measurable date, while third-quarter customer billings reached USD 9.80 million. The company said those billings included automotive and non-automotive activity, partner payments and cell shipments, but also warned that billings are not revenue under U.S. GAAP. The same filing said the QS PowerBlock demonstrated four times the power density and five times the runtime of the Open Compute Project reference specification in testing.

Losses narrow, cash use continues

Third-quarter operating expenses were USD 92.42 million, down from USD 114.99 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net cash used in operating activities fell to USD 55.06 million from USD 63.73 million a year earlier, while liquidity stood at USD 819.80 million at September 30, 2026. QuantumScape reiterated adjusted EBITDA loss guidance of USD 250.00 million to USD 275.00 million for full-year 2026.

The company also reported a USD 0.14 GAAP loss per share for the third quarter, compared with USD 0.18 in the year-earlier quarter. Its 2026 capital-expenditure guidance remains USD 27.00 million to USD 37.00 million. These figures leave manufacturing execution and cash discipline as the next measurable tests.

Next technology date is November 11

QuantumScape plans to present more details on its next-generation technology platform and collaboration model at its third annual Solid-State Battery Symposium in Kyoto on November 11, 2026. The company is listed on Nasdaq under QS, and its primary business is the development of solid-state lithium-metal batteries for electric vehicles and other applications.

Stock price and valuation frame

QuantumScape's market capitalization was USD 2.6 billion as of October 22, 2026. The 52-week range was USD 3.80 to USD 18.56 on the same market-data snapshot, placing the quoted primary-market value near the lower end of that span. The latest quarterly filing and the 2028 production target therefore point to execution milestones rather than current commercial-scale revenue.

At Lang & Schwarz, QuantumScape stock was trading at EUR 3.68 on October 22, 2026 at 10:51 p.m. CEST.
