Xiaomi's EV Segment May Post 1Q Loss -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-03

0306 GMT - Xiaomi's electric-vehicle business will likely report a loss for 1Q due to elevated research and development expenses and temporary promotions for car buyers, Deutsche Bank analyst Bin Wang writes in a note. The company's EV deliveries rose 5% to more than 79,416 units in 1Q. The bank expects the gross margin for Xiaomi's smart EV, AI and other new initiatives to drop by 4.7 percentage points on quarter to 18% in 1Q. That margin contraction is primarily due to Xiaomi providing discounts of up to 15,000 yuan for car buyers who placed orders before November 2025 but received their vehicles in 2026, Wang adds.
