CEO and CFO Comments
“In the second quarter of 2026, the Company delivered 107,658 smart electric vehicles, representing a 49.4% year-over-year increase. All three brands, NIO, ONVO, and FIREFLY, achieved growth in both sales volume and average transaction price. For the third quarter, we expect total deliveries to range between 108,000 and 111,000 vehicles, with a year-over-year growth of 24.0% to 27.5%,” said William Bin Li, founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of NIO.
“In the second quarter, the NIO brand ranked first in China’s passenger vehicle market priced above RMB 350,000. The ES8 has sustained strong market momentum since its launch and reached its 140,000th delivery within 335 days, leading China’s RMB 400,000-level passenger vehicle segment and the large SUV segment. The ES9, our executive flagship SUV, continues to win over users from traditional fuel-powered luxury SUVs, ranking first in sales among passenger vehicles priced above RMB 500,000 in China in both June and July. With the compelling product advantages of the ONVO L90 and L80, the ONVO brand has become the sales leader in China’s RMB 200,000 to RMB 300,000 large SUV segment. Meanwhile, the firefly has ranked first in market share in China’s high-end small-car market for 15 consecutive months, further strengthening its leadership in the segment,” added William Bin Li.

“In the second quarter of 2026, the Company continued to improve its overall operating quality. Supported by strong sales of higher-margin models and ongoing optimization of our cost structure, we maintained healthy gross and vehicle margins despite rising cost pressures. Services and community-related businesses continued to contribute to profitability. The Company maintained positive non-GAAP operating profit during the quarter, further increasing our cash reserves and strengthening our financial position to support long-term, sustainable development,” said Stanley Yu Qu, NIO’s chief financial officer. “With our solid, comprehensive systematic capabilities and clear business strategies, we are confident in achieving our full-year operating objectives and delivering high-quality growth.”

The increase in vehicle sales over the second quarter of 2025 was mainly due to an increase in delivery volume and a higher average selling price as a result of changes in product mix. The increase in vehicle sales over the first quarter of 2026 was mainly attributable to an increase in delivery volume. |

The increase in other sales over the first quarter of 2026 was mainly due to (i) an increase in revenues from sales of used cars and (ii) an increase in sales of parts, accessories and after-sales vehicle services, partially offset by a decrease in revenues from provision of auto financing services. |

Balance Sheet
| · | Balance of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investment and long-term time deposits was RMB56.7 billion (US$8.4 billion) as of June 30, 2026. We recorded net current assets as of June 30, 2026 and generated positive operating cash flows and adjusted net profit (non-GAAP) in the second quarter of 2026, despite recording a net loss under GAAP in this quarter. Based on our going concern and liquidity assessment, which considers our business plan including revenue growth from the sales of existing and new vehicle models, continuous optimization of operation efficiency to improve operating cash flows, working capital management, the ability to raise funds from banks under available credit quotas and other sources when needed, and evaluates uncertainties as to the successful execution of our business plan, we believe that our financial resources, including our available cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, cash generated from operating activities and funds from available credit quotas and other sources will be sufficient to support our continuous operations in the ordinary course of business for the next twelve months. |

Non-GAAP Disclosure
The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted cost of sales (non-GAAP), adjusted research and development expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted profit/(loss) from operations (non-GAAP), adjusted net profit/(loss) (non-GAAP), adjusted net profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP) and adjusted basic and diluted net profit/(loss) per ordinary share/ADS (non-GAAP), in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company defines adjusted cost of sales (non-GAAP), adjusted research and development expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP) and adjusted profit/(loss) from operations (non-GAAP) and adjusted net profit/(loss) (non-GAAP) as cost of sales, research and development expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, profit/(loss) from operations and net profit/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses and organizational optimization charges. The Company defines adjusted net profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP) and adjusted basic and diluted profit/(loss) per ordinary share/ADS (non-GAAP) as profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and basic and diluted profit/(loss) per ordinary share/ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses, organizational optimization charges and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, organizational optimization charges and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value, which are either non-cash or not indicative of the Company’s ordinary or ongoing operations due to their size or nature, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
10
The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net profit/(loss) or other consolidated statements of comprehensive profit/(loss) data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.
For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
