Li Auto (ADR)

HSBC lowered Li Auto to Hold from Buy and cut its price target to $18.60 from $30.30, citing significant recalls, delivery problems and declining sales as signs of serious operational issues. The bank slashed earnings forecasts by about 82%, flagging falling margins and an uncertain outlook for 2026. Goldman Sachs also trimmed its price target to $27 while keeping a Buy rating. Li Auto reported a 36% drop in third-quarter revenue, a 39% fall in deliveries to 93,211 units and a quarterly loss of RMB625 million. » Altro su finance.yahoo.com

Li Auto is recalling 11,411 MEGA models built between 18 February and 17 December 2024 because a coolant used lacks sufficient corrosion resistance. In extreme cases this could lead to thermal runaway of the drive battery. The recall follows a fire incident involving a MEGA vehicle in Shanghai earlier this month; Li Auto apologized on its social-media channel. » Altro su de.investing.com
