JPMorgan released a report indicating that NIO-SW (09866.HK) (NIO.US) had mixed results for 1Q25. The company's GPM slightly exceeded the broker's and the market's expectations because of narrowed losses from other services, but the expansion of new products and channels led to increased operating and marketing expenses, resulting in net profit falling below expectations (6% lower than JPMorgan's estimate).

In the broker's estimates, the company's non-GAAP operating profit will break even in the last quarter driven by strong sales growth and improved profitability. Additionally, NIO's management also emphasized cost-cutting measures to enhance profitability.
