With XPeng (XPEV) and Nio (NIO) set to release their earnings reports this week, the spotlight is on China's electric vehicle (EV) giants. Both companies are navigating an increasingly competitive EV market, but their strategies and financial performances could set them apart. XPeng: Aiming for Steady Growth XPeng is projected to report Q3 2024 revenue of 10.091 billion RMB, an 18.3% year-over-year increase. While the expected EPS remains negative at -1.95 RMB, the narrowing of losses by 56.52% year-over-year reflects improving operational efficiency. Key Drivers to Watch: Delivery Momentum: XPeng's delivery volumes have improved, driven by the success of its G6 SUV and P7i sedan.

$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ NIO recently released its Q3 earnings, which fell short of expectations.Revenue and Sales PerformanceQ3 revenue was ¥18.67 billion, down 2.1% YoY, below analysts' forecast of ¥19.17 billion and the lower end of management’s guidance (¥19.1 billion).Vehicle deliveries reached 61,855 units, slightly under the forecast of 62,053 units by just 0.32%, yet revenue was down 2.59%.This discrepancy stems from a decline in average revenue per vehicle (ARPV). ARPV in Q3 was ¥270,000, down 14% YoY and below the forecast of ¥276,000. The drop was largely due to NIO’s second brand, ALDO, whose first model, the L60, is priced lower at ¥206,900–¥255,900. ALDO sold 832 units in Q3, and sales surged to 4,319 in October, accounting for 20.6% of total

I am more optimistic about Xpeng Motors, while I believe NIO’s battery swap model is a strategy that requires huge investments to build swap stations, which is a completely flawed decision. The construction of swap stations not only requires massive capital investment but also faces high operating costs and maintenance challenges. In a large market like China, building and operating such a vast infrastructure is no easy task, and the adoption and acceptance of the battery swap model by users are uncertain. In contrast, Xpeng Motors focuses more on improving charging infrastructure and developing intelligent technologies, while also leading the industry in battery technology and autonomous driving innovations. This allows Xpeng to maintain high operational efficiency and profit potential wi

Nio, Xpeng, and the EV Landscape: Which Stocks to Bet On? Nio's Q2 2024 results showed a net loss of $624.1 million, but delivery numbers are up 35.8% YoY from January to August! Moderate Buy rating and $5.97 price target imply 8.84% upside. Xpeng faces execution issues and poor margins (6.4% vs. Nio's 12.2% and Li Auto's 18.7%). However, its tech focus and autonomous driving capabilities show promise. Li Auto boasts superior margins, profitability, and attractive valuation (P/S ratio of 1.1x). Moderate Buy rating and $26.82 price target make it a compelling long-term bet. Other EV Contenders: - BYD: Established player with strong domestic and international presence. - Tesla: Global EV leader with a $100B+ brand value. Key Takeaways: -Nio's delivery growth is encouraging, but profitability

Major EV manufacturers released their August delivery numbers yesterday, and the results were a mixed bag.NIO, XPeng & Li AutoStarting with $NIO Inc.(NIO)$ $NIO-SW(09866)$ , they delivered 20,176 units in August, a 4.4% increase year-over-year, marking their fourth consecutive month with over 20,000 units. This is solid for NIO, especially since they haven’t launched any new models recently and are relying on their existing lineup. For a company focusing solely on EV, maintaining monthly sales above 20,000 units is impressive.NIO also celebrated the launch of its new brand, ONVO, which kicked off with a “100 Stores Opening” event. ONVO L60 model will be available in 105 stores across 55 cities and 23

Chinese “pure play” electric vehicle carmaker NIO Inc. ($NIO Inc.(NIO)$ or $NIO Inc.(NIO.SI)$ ) — a long-touted “Tesla Killer” — announced its second quarter (Q2) earnings for its Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 on the 5th of September.

Since the release and as of the 11th, the stock has held steady. Early trends for the 12th indicate a significant downturn in the single-digit percentage range. Interestingly, the bulk of the price accrual seen in the American Depositary Share (ADS) noticeably occurred during the first week of Se

$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ We could see NIO hit Deutsche Bank's target of $8.75 this week.. NIO can easily triple in one session when the FOMO hits, but two major banks have $8 plus targets on it. we expect to see all banks raise their targets on NIO after the ER. Remember that 64% of Nio net loss is VOLATILITY because it is R&D. I call it adding value to the organization and it will pay off in spades
