CICC issued a report stating that LI AUTO-W (02015.HK)  -1.850 (-3.130%)    Short selling $310.75M; Ratio 41.003%   reported 1Q26 results largely in line with market expectations. Revenue was RMB22.98 billion, down YoY and QoQ. Non-GAAP net loss was RMB2.12 billion, broadly meeting expectations.

The report noted that the companys profitability is under short-term pressure, while 2Q guidance indicates QoQ stable sales volume. Gross margin in 1Q26 was 7.9%, down 12.6 ppts YoY and 9.9 ppts QoQ. Among which, gross margin of the automobile business was 6.1%, down 13.7 ppts YoY and 10.7 ppts QoQ. The pressure on vehicle gross margin was mainly due to inventory clearance of older models, changes in product mix and purchase tax subsidies. The company expects 2Q deliveries of 95,000 to 100,000 vehicles, implying a YoY decline and a QoQ change ranging from a 0.1% decrease to a 5.1% increase.

The report stated that orders for the L9 have been strong since launch, with a high proportion of Livis, which is expected to contribute incremental sales in 2Q and drive improvement in product mix and gross margin. However, production capacity remains constrained in the early stage after launch, and a meaningful breakthrough in steady-state monthly sales is expected in 3Q. Based on the Mach M100 chip and the mind VLA large model, the companys intelligent driving model performance and efficiency are expected to improve. The company plans to hold a software and artificial intelligence launch event in June, which is worth close attention.

Considering cost pressure and economies of scale, CICC lowered its 2026 and 2027 Non-GAAP net profit forecasts by 70% and 23% to RMB1.1 billion and RMB8 billion, respectively. It maintained an Outperform rating and cut the TP for LI AUTO-W (02015.HK)  -1.850 (-3.130%)    Short selling $310.75M; Ratio 41.003%   and Li Auto Inc.
