In 2019, the electric vehicle startup Lordstown Motors made news when it acquired a 6.2 million-square-foot facility from General Motors. Now, it appears that the cash-strapped firm would most likely sell that facility to Foxconn Technology Group of Taiwan.

The purchase may close as soon as this week, according to unknown sources, according to the first to report the news, reported by Bloomberg . The news of the sale isn’t entirely unexpected because Lordstown management had stated during a second quarter earnings call that the company was in serious conversations with partners to lease the northeast Ohio site to other companies.

Lordstown would reportedly operate in the facility concurrently with Foxconn, though financial details of the deal were not made public.
