HK Movers｜ Li Auto's Stock Drops 6% As Q1 Revenue Outlook Lags Estimates
Li Auto's HK stock drops 6% as Q1 revenue outlook lags estimates.
The company said it expects total revenues to be between 23.4 billion yuan ($3.2 billion) and 24.7 billion yuan, representing a year-over-year decrease of 8.7% to 3.5%. That was below Visible Alpha estimates of 33.5 billion yuan in revenue for the quarter.
During the fourth quarter, Li Auto posted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of 10.04 yuan ($1.38), versus 11.46 yuan the same period the previous year. Total revenues rose 6.1% to 44.3 billion yuan year-over-year.
The company competes in China against homegrown EV rivals Nio (NIO), BYD, and XPeng (XPEV) as well as Elon Musk's Tesla (TSLA). The Chinese EV makers have been locked in a price war with its rivals which has weighed on its earnings, according to reporting from Reuters.
Tesla, meanwhile, is looking to produce and sell a less expensive version of its Model Y SUV in China starting next year, according to Reuters, as the U.S. company grapples with its loss of market share in the country.
Li Auto shares have lost more than a quarter of their value in the past year.
