Shares of Mullen Automotive Inc. bounced back a bit Thursday, after the electric-vehicle maker said it recorded revenue for the first time with the sale of 22 EV cargo vans.

The California-based company
MULN,
+2.45%
,
which was incorporated in 2014, said the sale to Randy Automotive Group generated $308,000 in revenue, which will be recorded in companyโ€™s fiscal third quarter, which ends June 30.

Shipping of the vehicles started Thursday from Mullenโ€™s Tunica, Miss., assembly plant.

โ€œWe continue to receive great interest from around the country for Mullenโ€™s different commercial EVs and the campus van is proving to be a great fit with various different closed campus commercial applications,โ€ said Brad Sigmon, vice president of fleet operations at Randy Marion Automotive.

The stock rose 1.0% in morning trading, following a 36.5% drubbing over the previous two days. The stock had closed at a record low of 11.01 cents on Wednesday, even after the company said it received additional financing that put it in the โ€œbest financial positionโ€ in its history.

The former โ€œmemeโ€ stock has plummeted 84.7% so far in June, which puts it on track for the biggest one-month decline since it went public two years ago.

In comparison, the Global X Autonomous and Electric Vehicles exchange-traded fund
DRIV,
+0.71%

has advanced 9.1% month to date and the S&P 500
SPX,
+0.36%

has gained 5.1%.
