Management Commentary

Mr. He Xiaopeng, Chairman and CEO of XPeng, said, “2021 was marked by impressive growth with record-breaking fourth quarter deliveries led by our blockbuster P7 model and our newly launched P5 family sedan. For both the full year and fourth quarter, our total deliveries more than tripled year-over-year, fueled by the fast-growing EV penetration in China and our competitive Smart EV products. In addition, fast expansion of our sales and services, and supercharging stations networks and the accelerated rollout of new products are paving the way for even deeper penetration into China’s mid- to high-end market segment where robust demand for our products continues to outpace supply.”

“We are also excited about our City Navigation Guided Pilot (“CNGP”), which is being developed and fast iterated. Our objective for CNGP is to achieve superior safety and user experience in complex urban driving scenarios. The upcoming OTA of CNGP will further strengthen our technology leadership and it will mark another major milestone on our journey toward achieving full scenario autonomous driving for our customers,” Mr. He concluded.

“With accelerated deliveries across our three models, our 2021 full-year revenue exceeded RMB20 billion. Notably, we delivered remarkable growth in the fourth quarter, with revenues reaching RMB8.6 billion, up 200.1% year-over-year. Fueled by our strong vehicle models on the market, planned new launches based on new platforms, and technology leadership, we are confident in our continued growth trajectory and structural improvement of gross margin.” said Dr. Hongdi Brian Gu, Honorary Vice Chairman and President of XPeng.

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 change on derivative liabilities related to the redemption right of preferred shares and/or accretion on preferred shares to redemption value, 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 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.
