XPeng Motors(9868): reported total revenue of RMB 22.25 billion for the fourth quarter of 2025, a 38.2% year-on-year increase, exceeding market expectations of RMB 21.635 billion. Vehicle deliveries reached 116,249 units, a 27.0% year-on-year increase. The company achieved its first quarterly profit, with net profit of RMB 380 million; non-GAAP net profit reached RMB 510 million, far exceeding the expected loss of RMB 70.22 million, demonstrating strong performance. However, the outlook for the first quarter of 2026 is exceptionally weak. The company expects first-quarter deliveries to be only 61,000 to 66,000 vehicles, a sharp year-on-year decrease of 29.79% to 35.11%; total revenue is expected to be RMB 12.2 billion to RMB 13.28 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 16.01% to 22.84%, far below the market consensus of RMB 15.72 billion. In summary, although a significant profit milestone was achieved in the fourth quarter, the sharp drop in first-quarter guidance reflects the severe pressure the company is facing on short-term sales momentum.
