LI's stock price slumped post earnings despite the auto manufacturer delivering better-than-expected Q2 results and providing Q3 guidance in-line with market expectations. However, investors were left disappointed as management failed to offer clear long-term sales guidance or a detailed plan for the development of BEVs. 86Research thinks the market is overlooking the steady growth in LI's EREV sales, excellent cost and expense control, and the strategic capabilities of its management team, which are supporting the long-term development of the company.
