Xpeng's Delivery Growth Target Appears Ambitious -- Market Talk

Dow Jones2023-05-26

0535 GMT - Xpeng's delivery growth target for 2023 appears ambitious to Nomura, which estimates electric vehicles delivered in China will grow 24% versus the company's 30% guidance. While the Chinese EV maker's margin may improve in 2H and 2024, on product mix changes and lower costs, Nomura research analysts estimate its 2023 gross margin at 8.7%, versus the 10.4% consensus, judging from its lackluster deliveries in 1Q and likely moderate delivery growth in 2Q. XPeng's gains may also be capped by its near-term P7i battery supply bottleneck and likely limited market share improvement in 2023, they add. Nomura slashes the target price for its ADRs to $8.00 from $36.30 and maintains a neutral rating. The ADRs were last at $8.01. (monica.gupta@wsj.com)
