“In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company delivered 124,807 smart electric vehicles, representing a year-over-year increase of 71.7%, with quarterly deliveries of our NIO, ONVO and FIREFLY brands each reaching record highs,” said William Bin Li, founder, chairman and chief executive officer of NIO. “For the full year of 2025, total deliveries across the three brands reached 326,028 units, up 46.9% year over year, reflecting our accelerating growth trajectory. We expect total deliveries in the first quarter of 2026 to be between 80,000 and 83,000 units, representing a year-over-year increase of 90.1% to 97.2%.”
“In 2025, the competitiveness of our products across three brands was widely recognized within their respective market segments. The NIO All-New ES8 maintained strong delivery momentum, setting a new monthly delivery record among vehicles priced above RMB400,000. The ONVO L90 also delivered outstanding performance, becoming the best-selling large BEV SUV in 2025. Since its launch, the firefly has maintained a leading position in the premium small car segment. At the same time, our in-house developed core smart EV technologies continued to reach mass production and deployment, enhancing product competitiveness while delivering meaningful cost efficiencies. Looking ahead to 2026, we will continue to invest decisively in our twelve full-stack core technologies, launch new models, enhance the commercial and operational capabilities of our battery swapping and charging network, and continue upgrading our sales and service network,” added William Bin Li.
“In the fourth quarter of 2025, our vehicle margin reached 18.1%, and other sales margin reached 11.9%. These improvements were primarily driven by the strong delivery and revenue growth, an optimized product mix, and cost reduction and efficiency enhancement initiatives. We achieved non-GAAP operating profit of RMB1,251.3 million for the first time on a quarterly basis in the fourth quarter of 2025, marking a major milestone in our operating performance,” said Stanley Yu Qu, NIO’s chief financial officer. “In 2026, we will continue to enhance operational efficiency and optimize cost, and deliver stronger, more sustainable performance for our users, partners and shareholders.”

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