$39B valuation (Series C, September 2025). Figure 03 launched October 2025 after BMW deployment (90K+ parts over 11 months, ended November 2025) revealed wrist electronics and thermal constraints requiring complete redesign. BotQ manufacturing facility targeting 12,000 robots/year, scalable to 100,000. All 2026 production committed to Hyundai (targeting 30,000-unit/year scale from 2028) and Google DeepMind. Figure 03 debuted at White House Fostering the Future Together Summit, March 25, 2026.

Scenarios

Bull Case

If humanoid robot market is $380B by 2035 (10x Goldman estimate), RaaS at $1,000/robot/month creates compounding recurring revenue as software updates improve.

Bear Case

Tesla Optimus, Boston Dynamics Atlas, Agility Digit all targeting same deployments. $39B valuation impossible to justify against current revenue. Hardware manufacturing at scale is brutally complex.

Key Factors to Watch

  • BMW deployment concluded November 2025 (90K+ parts over 11 months) — validated production, lessons drove Figure 03 redesign
  • Hyundai (30K-unit/year target by 2028) and Google DeepMind are 2026 anchor customers
  • BotQ facility scaling from 12K to 100K robots/year — hardware manufacturing is the critical execution risk
  • Tesla Optimus, Boston Dynamics Atlas, Agility Digit all competing for same industrial slots
