SGX-listed NIO Inc.’s net loss narrowed 89.4% year-on-year (YoY) to $100.3m (RMB528m) in the second quarter of 2026 (Q2), from $948.1m (RMB4.99b) a year earlier. 

The loss, however, widened 59% from $63.1m (RMB332.1m) in Q1, according to a bourse filing.

The company’s total revenue climbed 69.1% YoY to $6.11b (RMB32.14b). Vehicle sales jumped 80.1% to $5.52b (RMB29.06b), supported by higher delivery volume and higher average selling prices resulting from changes in product mix.

Operating loss narrowed to $66m (RMB347.2m) from $932.9m (RMB4.91b) a year earlier, although it widened from $58.7m (RMB308.8m) in the previous quarter.

Research and development expenses fell 28.7% to $406.6m (RMB2.14b), mainly due to lower personnel costs following organisational optimisation and reduced design and development costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 11.6% to $839.8m (RMB4.42b), largely due to increased sales and marketing activities related to new product launches.

For Q3, the company expects vehicle deliveries of between 108,000 and 111,000 units, representing YoY growth of 24% to 27.5%.

Revenue is projected at $6.33b (RMB33.29b) to $6.47b (RMB34.05b), up approximately 52.7% to 56.2% from the same period last year, it added.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
