Insights

NIO shows stronger volume and margin trends but still reports sizable losses and a working‑capital risk despite a recent equity raise.

NIO expanded deliveries to 87,071 units in Q3 2025 and grew total revenues to RMB21,793.9 million, driven by higher volumes across its NIO, ONVO and FIREFLY brands; vehicle margin rose to 14.7% and gross profit increased to RMB3,024.6 million, reflecting lower material costs per unit and cost reductions.

The company reduced operating and net losses quarter‑on‑quarter and completed a US$1.16 billion equity offering, yet it still reported that current liabilities exceed current assets and acknowledged uncertainties in executing its plan; cash and equivalents stood at RMB36.7 billion. Key dependencies and risks include sustaining the margin improvements, continuing positive operating cash flow, and executing working capital and financing plans as described in the going concern assessment.

Watch the announced Q4 2025 delivery target of Q4 2025 between 120,000 and 125,000 units as a near‑term operational milestone and monitor quarterly operating cash flow and the company’s ability to keep current liabilities manageable over the next twelve months. The equity offering and share issuances materially affect liquidity and potential dilution; track their net cash contribution and any further financing statements over the coming quarters.

CEO and CFO Comments

“In the third quarter of 2025, the Company delivered 87,071 smart electric vehicles, representing a year-over-year increase of 40.8%. The strong momentum was driven by the all-around competitiveness of our NIO, ONVO, and FIREFLY brand offerings, which continue to resonate with users across their respective market segments,” said William Bin Li, founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of NIO. “We are working closely with supply chain partners to ramp up production and expect total deliveries in the fourth quarter to reach between 120,000 and 125,000 units, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 65.1% to 72.0% and setting a new quarterly record.”

“The All-New NIO ES8 has set the fastest record for delivering over 10,000 units among BEVs priced above RMB400,000 in China, while the ONVO L90 has remained the top-selling large BEV SUV for three consecutive months, and FIREFLY has quickly secured a leading position in the small smart high-end electric car market since its first deliveries. Underpinned by our core smart EV technologies, a complementary multi-brand product portfolio, a comprehensive and convenient battery swapping and charging network, as well as a vibrant and growing user community, the Company has entered a new cycle of accelerated growth,” added William Bin Li.

“Through continuous cost optimization and a greater contribution from higher-margin vehicle deliveries, our vehicle gross margin sequentially improved to 14.7% in Q3 2025, and the overall gross margin reached the highest level in the past three years, underscoring the enhanced profitability of our products and services,” added Stanley Yu Qu, NIO’s chief financial officer. “Our continued efforts on operational efficiency improvement across R&D, sales and service also drove a quarter-on-quarter reduction of over 30% in non-GAAP operating losses, continuing the positive trend from the first half of 2025. Furthermore, the business generated positive operating cash flow and positive results of operating cashflow net off the capital expenditures during the quarter. Bolstered further by the US$1.16 billion equity offering, our strengthened balance sheet provides a solid foundation for the path toward sustained, long-term growth.”

The increase in vehicle sales over the third quarter of 2024 was mainly due to an increase in delivery volume, partially offset by the lower average selling price as a result of changes in product mix.

The decrease in other sales over the second quarter of 2025 was mainly due to the decrease in revenues from sales of used cars and technical research and development services, partially offset by the increase in sales of parts, accessories and after-sales vehicle services, and provision of power solutions, as a result of the continued growth in the number of users.

• Vehicle margin in the third quarter of 2025 was 14.7%, compared with 13.1% in the third quarter of 2024 and 10.3% in the second quarter of 2025.

The decrease in research and development expenses over the third quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of 2025 was mainly due to the decreased personnel costs in research and development functions primarily as a result of organizational optimization, and the decreased design and development costs resulting from different stages of development for new products and technologies.

Balance Sheet

• Balance of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investment and long-term time deposits was RMB36.7 billion (US$5.1 billion) as of September 30, 2025. We have been incurring loss since inception. Although we generated positive operating cash flows for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, we had negative operating cash flows in the first two quarters of 2025 and our current liabilities exceeded current assets as of September 30, 2025. 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 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.

Business Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company expects:

• Deliveries of vehicles to be between 120,000 and 125,000 vehicles, representing an increase of approximately 65.1% to 72.0% from the same quarter of 2024.

This business outlook reflects the Company’s current and preliminary view on the business situation and market condition, which is subject to change.

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 loss from operations (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP) and adjusted basic and diluted net loss per 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 loss from operations (non-GAAP) and adjusted net loss (non-GAAP) as cost of sales, research and development expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, loss from operations and net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and organizational optimization charges. The Company defines adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP), adjusted basic and diluted net loss per share/ADS (non-GAAP) as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and basic and diluted net loss per 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.

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 loss or other consolidated statements of comprehensive 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.
