“Despite fierce market competition, the Company’s gross profit margin saw a substantial increase to 12.9% in the first quarter of 2024,” said Dr. Hongdi Brian Gu, Honorary Vice Chairman and Co-President of XPENG. “This signifies that XPENG, based on its smart EV business, has developed a unique approach to lift its profitability and international market potential by providing smart technologies.”

Unaudited Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024

Total revenues were RMB6.55 billion (US$0.91 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 62.3% from RMB4.03 billion for the same period of 2023 and a decrease of 49.8% from RMB13.05 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Revenues from vehicle sales were RMB5.54 billion (US$0.77 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 57.8% from RMB3.51 billion for the same period of 2023, and a decrease of 54.7% from RMB12.23 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to higher deliveries, particularly the model X9 in the first quarter of 2024. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly attributable to lower deliveries of the G6 and the 2024 G9, compounded by seasonal impact, partially offset by contribution of the X9.

Revenues from services and others were RMB1.00 billion (US$0.14 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 93.1% from RMB0.52 billion for the same period of 2023 and an increase of 22.1% from RMB0.82 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were mainly attributable to the revenue from technical research and development service recorded in the first quarter of 2024, which is related to the platform and software strategic technical collaboration with the Volkswagen Group.

Cost of sales was RMB5.70 billion (US$0.79 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 43.8% from RMB3.97 billion for the same period of 2023 and a decrease of 53.4% from RMB12.24 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase and quarter-over-quarter decrease were mainly in line with vehicle deliveries as described above, respectively.

Gross margin was 12.9% for the first quarter of 2024, compared with 1.7% for the same period of 2023 and 6.2% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Vehicle margin was 5.5% for the first quarter of 2024, compared with negative 2.5% for the same period of 2023 and 4.1% for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were primarily attributable to the cost reduction and the improvement in product mix of models, partially offset by the inventory provision and losses on purchase commitment related to the model P5, with a negative impact of 3.2 percentage points on vehicle margin for this quarter, as management lowered the P5’s forecasted sales due to expected stronger market demands for upcoming new vehicle models.

Services and others margin was 53.9% for the first quarter of 2024, compared with 29.6% for the same period of 2023 and 38.2% for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were primarily attributable to the higher gross margin from the aforementioned revenue from technical research and development service.

Research and development expenses were RMB1.35 billion (US$0.19 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 4.2% from RMB1.30 billion for the same period of 2023 and an increase of 3.3% from RMB1.31 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were mainly in line with timing and progress of new vehicle programs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB1.39 billion (US$0.19 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 0.1% from RMB1.39 billion for the same period of 2023 and a decrease of 28.3% from RMB1.94 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to lower commission to the franchised stores and lower marketing, promotional and advertising expenses.

Other income, net was RMB0.07 billion (US$0.01 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 146.3% from RMB0.03 billion for the same period of 2023 and a decrease of 79.0% from RMB0.35 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease of government subsidies.

Fair value gain on derivative liability relating to the contingent consideration was RMB0.18 billion (US$0.02 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with RMB0.03 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. This non-cash gain resulted from the fair value change of the contingent consideration related to the acquisition of DiDi’s smart auto business.

Loss from operations was RMB1.65 billion (US$0.23 billion) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with RMB2.59 billion for the same period of 2023 and RMB2.05 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic loss per weighted average number of ordinary shares and non-GAAP basic loss per ADS, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, fair value gain (loss) on derivative liability and fair value gain on derivative liability relating to the contingent consideration, 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

6

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 net loss or other consolidated statements of comprehensive loss data 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 Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP Results” set forth in this announcement.
