Workhorse has since said it had notified the SEC of misstatements it had made to safety regulators.<blockquote>美国证券交易委员会也在调查Workhorse，《华尔街日报》9月份报道了该委员会对该公司的调查。Workhorse此后表示，已将其向安全监管机构做出的错误陈述通知了SEC。</blockquote> Shares in Workhorse closed at $7.22 Thursday, down 82% from an all-time high of $41.34 in February. Since late July, the company has installed new executive leadership, withdrawn financial guidance, stopped production and recalled vans that had already been delivered to customers.<blockquote>Workhorse股价周四收于7.22美元，较2月份41.34美元的历史高点下跌82%。自7月下旬以来，该公司任命了新的执行领导层，撤回了财务指导，停止了生产，并召回了已经交付给客户的货车。</blockquote> Last year, electric-vehicle startups saw an influx of billions of dollars, many through mergers with special-purpose-acquisition companies, or SPACs. Workhorse’s roots as a public company go back to 2010, but its stock price benefited last year from the increased investor interest in EVs. Shares of Workhorse rocketed more than 2,000% between March 2020 and this past February.<blockquote>去年，电动汽车初创公司涌入了数十亿美元，其中许多是通过与特殊目的收购公司（SPAC）合并获得的。Workhorse作为一家上市公司的历史可以追溯到2010年，但去年其股价受益于投资者对电动汽车兴趣的增加。2020年3月至今年2月期间，Workhorse的股价飙升了2,000%以上。</blockquote> Workhorse is the third electric-vehicle company known to have come under scrutiny from both federal prosecutors and securities regulators in the past 14 months.<blockquote>Workhorse是过去14个月内第三家受到联邦检察官和证券监管机构审查的电动汽车公司。</blockquote> This July, the Justice Department and the SEC filed securities-fraud charges against Trevor Milton, founder and former executive chairman of hydrogen-truck startup&nbsp;Nikola&nbsp;Corp.On Thursday,Nikola said it was putting aside $125 million&nbsp;ahead of a potential settlement with the SEC.<blockquote>今年7月，司法部和美国证券交易委员会对氢卡车初创公司Nikola Corp的创始人兼前执行主席特雷弗·米尔顿(Trevor Milton)提出证券欺诈指控。周四，Nikola表示，在与SEC达成潜在和解之前，它将拨出1.25亿美元。</blockquote> Nikola is “looking forward to resolving the outstanding issues relating to our founder and bringing that chapter to a close and maintaining our focus on delivering trucks to our customers,” Chief Executive Mark Russell said. Nikola said in a regulatory filing Thursday that it is committed to cooperating fully with the SEC and Justice Department investigations, which are ongoing.<blockquote>首席执行官马克·拉塞尔(Mark Russell)表示，尼古拉“期待解决与我们创始人相关的悬而未决的问题，结束这一篇章，并继续专注于向客户交付卡车”。尼古拉周四在一份监管文件中表示，它致力于全力配合美国证券交易委员会和司法部正在进行的调查。</blockquote> A spokesman for Mr. Milton declined to comment.After he was charged in July, a spokesman for Mr. Milton’s lawyers said he was innocent and had been wrongly accused following a faulty investigation.<blockquote>米尔顿的发言人拒绝置评。在他7月份被指控后，米尔顿律师的发言人表示，他是无辜的，是在一次错误的调查后被错误指控的。</blockquote> Earlier this year,the SEC&nbsp;and&nbsp;the Justice Department&nbsp;opened probes into&nbsp;Lordstown Motors&nbsp;Corp., a company in which&nbsp;Workhorse was an early investor.<blockquote>今年早些时候，美国证券交易委员会和司法部对洛兹敦汽车公司（Lordstown Motors Corp.）展开调查，Workhorse是该公司的早期投资者。</blockquote> Lordstown Motors has said it is committed to cooperating with any investigations.<blockquote>洛兹敦汽车公司表示致力于配合任何调查。</blockquote> Both Workhorse and Lordstown have been targeted by short sellers who say they are skeptical of the companies’ products and prospects for future business.<blockquote>Workhorse和Lordstown都成为卖空者的目标，他们表示对两家公司的产品和未来业务前景持怀疑态度。</blockquote> Based in Loveland, Ohio, Workhorse manufactures electric delivery vans that it aims to sell to commercial-fleet operators like&nbsp;United Parcel Service&nbsp;Inc.Workhorse had been a bidder on a new contract to make mail delivery trucks for the U.S. Postal Service, but lost the bid in February. The company challenged that decision in court but has since withdrawn its complaint.<blockquote>Workhorse总部位于俄亥俄州洛弗兰德，生产电动送货车，计划将其出售给联合包裹服务公司等商业车队运营商。Workhorse曾是为美国邮政服务制造邮件送货车的新合同的投标人，但失败了二月份的投标。该公司在法庭上对这一决定提出质疑，但后来撤回了申诉。</blockquote> On July 29, Workhorse said it was hiring Richard Dauch as chief executive and pulling its financial guidance for investors. Mr. Dauch had most recently served in the same role at Delphi Technologies PLC and oversaw its sale to BorgWarner Inc. Former Workhorse CEO Duane Hughes left the company by mutual agreement.<blockquote>7月29日，Workhorse表示将聘请Richard Dauch担任首席执行官，并取消对投资者的财务指引。Dauch先生最近曾在Delphi Technologies PLC担任同样的职务，并监督其出售给博格华纳公司。前Workhorse首席执行官Duane Hughes经双方同意离开了该公司。</blockquote> A few weeks later, Mr. Dauch opened an earnings call saying the company was revising designs for its flagship C-1000 vans in response to customer feedback that said they lacked payload capacity.<blockquote>几周后，Dauch先生在财报看涨期权上表示，该公司正在修改其旗舰C-1000货车的设计，以回应客户反馈称其缺乏有效负载能力。</blockquote> On Sept. 22, Workhorse said it was suspending deliveries of the C-1000 and recalling 41 that had already been delivered to customers. The company said that the vehicles needed more testing to comply with federal safety standards and that earlier statements related to their compliance made to federal regulators couldn’t be relied on.<blockquote>9月22日，Workhorse表示将暂停交付C-1000，并召回已交付给客户的41架。该公司表示，这些车辆需要进行更多测试才能符合联邦安全标准，并且不能依赖之前向联邦监管机构做出的有关其合规性的声明。</blockquote> Last month, the company disclosed that the chief financial officer, chief operating officer and general counsel who had been at the company with Mr. Hughes had left or would leave the company.<blockquote>上个月，该公司披露，与休斯先生一起在公司工作的首席财务官、首席运营官和总法律顾问已经或将离开公司。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
