"In the first quarter of 2025, the Company delivered 42,094 smart electric vehicles, marking a solid year-over-year increase of 40.1%," said William Bin Li, founder, chairman and chief executive officer of NIO.

Financial Results for the First Quarter of 2025
Revenues
- Total revenues in the first quarter of 2025 were RMB12,034.7 million (US$1,658.4 million), representing an increase of 21.5% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 38.9% from the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Vehicle sales in the first quarter of 2025 were RMB9,939.3 million (US$1,369.7 million), representing an increase of 18.6% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 43.1% from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in vehicle sales over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the increase in delivery volume, partially offset by the lower average selling price as a result of changes in product mix. The decrease in vehicle sales over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to a decrease in delivery volume, which was affected by seasonal factors.
- Other sales in the first quarter of 2025 were RMB2,095.4 million (US$288.8 million), representing an increase of 37.2% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 5.9% from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in other sales over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly due to i) 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, ii) the increase in revenues from sales of used cars, and iii) the increase in revenues from technical research and development services. The decrease in other sales over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the decrease in revenues from technical research and development services and auto financing services.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
- Cost of sales in the first quarter of 2025 was RMB11,115.2 million (US$1,531.7 million), representing an increase of 18.0% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 36.1% from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in cost of sales over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to the increase in delivery volume, partially offset by the decreased material cost per vehicle. The decrease in cost of sales over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to a decrease in delivery volume.
- Gross profit in the first quarter of 2025 was RMB919.6 million (US$126.7 million), representing an increase of 88.5% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 60.2% from the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Gross margin in the first quarter of 2025 was 7.6%, compared with 4.9% in the first quarter of 2024 and 11.7% in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in gross margin over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly due to i) the increase in sales from parts, accessories and after-sales vehicle services as well as provision of technical research and development services, with relatively higher margins, ii) the increased vehicle margin, and iii) the reduction in the gross loss rate from provision of power solutions due to the growing number of users. The decrease in gross margin over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to the lower vehicle margin.
- Vehicle margin in the first quarter of 2025 was 10.2%, compared with 9.2% in the first quarter of 2024 and 13.1% in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in vehicle margin from the first quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to decreased material cost per unit, partially offset by the impact of changes in product mix. The decrease in vehicle margin from the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the increased manufacture cost per unit as a result of decreased production volume.
Operating Expenses
- Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2025 were RMB3,181.4 million (US$438.4 million), representing an increase of 11.1% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 12.5% from the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, research and development expenses (non-GAAP) were RMB2,914.4 million (US$401.6 million), representing an increase of 9.6% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 11.5% from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in research and development expenses over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the incremental design and development costs for new products and technologies as well as the increased personnel costs in research and development functions. The decrease in research and development expenses over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the decreased design and development costs resulting from different stages of development for new products and technologies, partially offset by the increased personnel costs in research and development functions.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2025 were RMB4,400.8 million (US$606.4 million), representing an increase of 46.8% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 9.8% from the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP) were RMB4,211.9 million (US$580.4 million), representing an increase of 43.7% from the first quarter of 2024 and a decrease of 11.4% from the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to (i) the increase in personnel costs related to sales functions, and (ii) the increase in sales and marketing activities. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses over the fourth quarter of 2024 was mainly due to the decreased sales and marketing activities and professional services, partially offset by the incremental personnel costs related to sales and general corporate functions.

Balance Sheet
- Balance of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments and long-term time deposits was RMB26.0 billion (US$3.6 billion) as of March 31, 2025. We have been incurring loss since inception. We incurred operating cash outflow for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 and our current liabilities exceeded current assets and we had negative shareholders' equity as of March 31, 2025. Based on our going concern and liquidity assessment, which considers our business plan including revenue growth, optimization of operation efficiency to improve operating cash flows, working capital management and the ability to raise funds from banks under available credit quotas and other sources when needed, 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 second quarter of 2025, the Company expects:

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.
