OTA 6.0 and 6.1 Updates

In July 2024, the Company released OTA update versions 6.0 and 6.1 for Li MEGA and the Li L series, introducing numerous new features and experience enhancements in autonomous driving, smart space, and smart electric features. For autonomous driving, the Company rolled out a high-definition map-independent NOA with nationwide coverage to all Li AD Max users and significantly enhanced the city LCC and AEB capabilities for Li AD Pro. During its Autonomous Driving Summer Launch Event held on July 5, 2024, the Company unveiled a new technological architecture for autonomous driving integrating an end-to-end (E2E) model and a vision-language model (VLM). This architecture employs proprietary reconstructed and generative world models for training and validation, and began an early bird testing at the end of July.

Product Health Evaluation Results

In July 2024, Li MEGA received the highest overall score in the China Automobile Health Index (C-AHI) assessment by the China Automotive Engineering Research Institute Co., Ltd. under C-AHI’s updated evaluation protocol. Li MEGA received top ratings across all three evaluation categories — the Clean Air Index, the Health Protection Index, and the Energy Efficiency and Emission Index.

CEO and CFO Comments

Mr. Xiang Li, chairman and chief executive officer of Li Auto, commented, “Since the second quarter, Li Auto has emerged as the sales champion of Chinese automotive brands in the RMB200,000 and above NEV market amid intense competition, driven by segment leadership across all Li Auto models and enhanced store efficiency. Our second-quarter deliveries exceeded 108,000 vehicles, increasing by 25.5% year over year, a strong testament to our product strength and the effectiveness of our recalibrated operating strategy. In June 2024, we surpassed the 800,000-vehicle milestone in cumulative deliveries, making history for Chinese premium automotive brands. In addition to our strong sales results, we made substantial progress in autonomous driving. In July, we rolled out our high-definition map-independent NOA with nationwide coverage to over 240,000 Li AD Max users and launched our next-generation autonomous driving technological architecture that integrates an E2E model and a VLM. We will relentlessly pursue innovation and excellence to solidify our position as a preferred premium automotive brand for Chinese families, providing our users with products and services that exceed their expectations, and creating happiness for families.”

Mr. Tie Li, chief financial officer of Li Auto, added, “Amid intense market competition during the second quarter, we focused on creating user value and improving operating efficiency. Our solid second-quarter deliveries drove revenues to increase 10.6% year over year to RMB31.7 billion. Despite the impact from ramping up a new model, our gross margin remained healthy at 19.5%. As Li L6 production stabilizes and our cost reduction and efficiency enhancement measures take full effect, we expect an increase in both our margins and cash flow in the second half of the year. Looking ahead, we are committed to investing in technological and product advancements to drive steady business growth, while simultaneously optimizing our cost structure.”

The increase in revenue from vehicle sales over the second quarter of 2023 was mainly attributable to the increase in vehicle deliveries, partially offset by the lower average selling price mainly due to different product mix and pricing strategy changes between two quarters. The increase in revenue from vehicle sales over the first quarter of 2024 was mainly attributable to the increase in vehicle deliveries, partially offset by the lower average selling price mainly due to different product mix.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP cost of sales, non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic and diluted net earnings per ADS attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic and diluted net earnings per share attributable to ordinary shareholders and free cash flow, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and release of valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, 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 financial information 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 U.S. GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
