Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Li Auto share price today? Li Auto Inc.'s share price was $11.20 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been falling for 45 weeks. That is 24.2% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $11 and $20, and at that close it sat 5% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 27 weeks running. Over the last 6.3 years the share price moved −30% while the S&P 500 moved +131%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 1 May 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Li Auto pay? Li Auto Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Li Auto on? Li Auto is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Li Auto profitable? Li Auto Inc. posted a net loss of CNY 1.7 B in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY25 profit was CNY 1.1 B. That loss is 6.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned CNY 1.1 B. 3 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. Jun 2026 profit was −CNY 1.7 B, −255.5% on a year earlier. For the full year, FY25 profit was CNY 1.1 B (−85.8% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −15.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved −11.4 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −232.3% and revenue −24.4%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. This company reports in Chinese yuan, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (CNY); nothing is converted. ## How much revenue does Li Auto make, and is it growing? Li Auto Inc. reported CNY 25.7 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −15.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 42.8% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at CNY 112 B. The last four reported quarters add to CNY 105 B. FY25 revenue was CNY 112 B, −22.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −24.4% on average, against 42.8% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −26.9%, against −11.5% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over). This company reports in Chinese yuan, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (CNY); nothing is converted. ## How much of its sales does Li Auto keep? Li Auto Inc.'s operating margin was −8.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 11.4 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −7.9% and 5.9%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −11.4 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −9.1 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Li Auto's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 276% of Li Auto Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 its operations used CNY 8.6 B of cash, against CNY 1.1 B of profit. After CNY 4.2 B of spending on assets, free cash was −CNY 12.8 B: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. This company reports in Chinese yuan, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (CNY); nothing is converted. ## Where does Li Auto's cash go? Li Auto Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent CNY 18.4 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 5.5% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: CNY 18.4 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. This company reports in Chinese yuan, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (CNY); nothing is converted. ## What is Li Auto's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Li Auto Inc. has no P/E right now, because its earnings are negative. The revenue and margin sections are where a turn would show first. The P/E comes back here once profit turns positive. ## Is the Li Auto business getting better or worse? Li Auto Inc.'s business is getting worse. Revenue and profit growth are shrinking: revenue growth is −26.9% in the latest quarter, against +173.5% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE falling at -7.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Li Auto earn on its capital? Li Auto Inc. earned a ROE of 2% in FY25. That is up from a low of −5% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 10.5 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 1.0% net margin and 0.73× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 1.0% net margin × 0.73× asset turnover × 2.11× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 1.5% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −4.9% − 5.6% = −10.5 percentage points. The 5.6% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The −4.9% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY22 at −309.7%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Li Auto have too much debt? Li Auto Inc. has total debt of CNY 14.7 B against shareholder equity of CNY 66.0 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.22× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.19 in FY21 to 0.24 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. This company reports in Chinese yuan, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (CNY); nothing is converted. ## What is the Li Auto shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for Li Auto Inc., so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 9.4 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is Li Auto from balance-sheet trouble? For Li Auto Inc., the Z-score is 2.18. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.18 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Li Auto rank in its industry? There is no score against its industry: Li Auto Inc. is not among the largest members shown in this industry comparison for Auto Manufacturers. The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members. Without that group there is no score, so none is shown. ## Which companies is Li Auto compared with?
