Electric delivery truck maker Workhorse Group Inc. said Monday it sold down much of its stake in Lordstown Motor Corp. this summer, reducing its equity position in the embattled Ohio-based startup.
Workhorse, in a company filing, said it had sold 11.9 million shares in Lordstown Motors since July 1, reducing its 9% stake by nearly three-quarters. Workhorse, also based in Ohio, was an early investor in Lordstown Motors, which was established in 2019 by Workhorse founder and former chief executive Steve Burns, an entrepreneur who had previously begun tech and marketing companies.
