Why XPEV stock is down today
XPEV fell 7.34% to $11.29 in afternoon trading, marking a sharp reversal from an opening gap down of 1.3%. The decline followed the company’s second-quarter results, which showed a wider-than-expected net loss and revenue that fell short of estimates. Despite a $900 million funding boost for its robotics unit, the stock struggled amid concerns over profitability and production constraints.
What Happened
The company reported a second-quarter net loss of 1.34 billion yuan, or $199.4 million, compared to a 477.8 million yuan loss in the same period a year ago. This exceeded the estimated 718.6 million yuan loss. Revenue for the quarter was $2.91 billion, below the $2.95 billion forecast. The company attributed the widening loss to heavy investment in new models and AI-related technology, which outpaced profits from its core business.
Xpeng’s robotics unit, Dogotix, raised over $900 million in a funding round at a valuation exceeding $6.3 billion. The unit is focused on physical AI and robotics development, a strategic pivot that has drawn attention but has not yet translated into profitability. The company also launched its L03 model in July, which has generated strong order interest, but production is still ramping up, limiting delivery growth in the near term.
What The Data Shows
The stock opened at $12.03 and traded as high as $12.07 before falling to an intraday low of $11.28. Volume reached 7.0 million shares by the afternoon, matching the 3-month average. The stock had risen 3.7% over the previous eight sessions, closing at $12.19 on Friday. It now trades near the lower end of its 52-week range of $11.49 to $28.23. XPEV has printed one fresh 52-week low in the past week, but no new highs.
What To Watch
The company is scheduled to report its Q2 2026 earnings call, with guidance for Q3 vehicle deliveries and revenue already provided. Investors will monitor whether production of the L03 model accelerates and how the robotics investment translates into long-term value.
