Total revenues in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB9,908.6 million (US$1,372.3 million), representing a decrease of 7.2% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 42.1% from the fourth quarter of 2023.

Vehicle sales in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB8,381.3 million (US$1,160.8 million), representing a decrease of 9.1% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 45.7% from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in vehicle sales over the first quarter of 2023 was mainly due to a lower average selling price as a result of user rights adjustments since June 2023, and the decrease in delivery volume. The decrease in vehicle sales over the fourth quarter of 2023 was mainly attributable to a decrease in delivery volume, which was affected by seasonal factors.

Other sales in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB1,527.3 million (US$211.5 million), representing an increase of 5.2% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 8.2% from the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in other sales over the first quarter of 2023 was mainly due to the increase in sales of parts, after-sales vehicle services, and provision of power solutions, as a result of continued growth in the number of users, and partially offset by a decrease in revenue from sales of used cars and auto financing services. The decrease in other sales over the fourth quarter of 2023 was mainly due to a decrease in revenue from sales of used cars.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

Cost of sales in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB9,420.9 million (US$1,304.8 million), representing a decrease of 10.4% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 40.5% from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in cost of sales over the first quarter of 2023 was mainly attributable to the decreased material cost per vehicle and the decrease in delivery volume. The decrease in cost of sales over the fourth quarter of 2023 was mainly attributable to a decrease in delivery volume.

Gross profit in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB487.7 million (US$67.6 million), representing an increase of 200.5% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 61.9% from the fourth quarter of 2023.

Vehicle margin in the first quarter of 2024 was 9.2%, compared with 5.1% in the first quarter of 2023 and 11.9% in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in vehicle margin from the first quarter of 2023 was mainly attributable to decreased material cost per unit. The decrease in vehicle margin from the fourth quarter of 2023 was mainly due to lower average selling price as a result of increased promotion during product transitioning, changes in product mix, and partially offset by the decreased material cost per unit.

Operating Expenses

Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB2,864.2 million (US$396.7 million), representing a decrease of 6.9% from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 27.9% from the fourth quarter of 2023.

The decrease in research and development expenses over the first quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2023 was mainly due to decreased design and development costs resulting from different stages of development for new products and technologies, and decreased personnel costs in research and development functions in the first quarter of 2024.

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. 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 and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value, 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.
