Niu Technologies Announces Unaudited Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

(Positive)
Tags

Niu Technologies (NASDAQ: NIU) reported unaudited second quarter 2026 revenues of RMB 1,440.4 million, up 14.7% year over year, driven by a 24.2% increase in e-scooter sales volume to 434,687 units, partially offset by an 8.6% decline in revenue per e-scooter.

Gross margin fell to 16.0% from 20.1% a year earlier as product mix in China and higher upstream costs weighed on profitability. The company posted a net loss of RMB 102.2 million versus net income of RMB 5.9 million in 2025, with adjusted net loss at RMB 98.2 million. Operating expenses rose 28.6% to RMB 340.6 million, led by higher selling and marketing and a sharp increase in general and administrative expenses, including foreign exchange losses.

As of June 30, 2026, Niu Technologies held RMB 1,475.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, term deposits and short-term investments, against RMB 220.0 million in short-term bank borrowings. For third quarter 2026, the company expects revenues between RMB 1,863 million and RMB 2,033 million, implying 10%–20% year-over-year growth.

Key Terms

non-gaap, ads, share-based compensation
3 terms
non-gaap financial
"Adjusted net loss (non-GAAP)1 was RMB 98.2 million"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
View in glossary
ads financial
"Basic and diluted net loss per ADS were both RMB 1.26"
Ads are paid promotional messages a company places across media — online, on TV, in print, or on social platforms — to attract customers, explain products, or shape public perception. For investors, ads matter because they drive sales growth, affect how much a company must spend to win customers, and influence brand strength and long-term value. Ads can also create regulatory or reputational risk if claims are misleading, which can affect profits and stock price.
share-based compensation financial
"Selling and marketing expenses included RMB 1.0 million of share-based compensation"
Share-based compensation is when a company pays employees, executives or directors with its own stock or rights to buy stock instead of, or in addition to, cash. Think of it like receiving store gift cards instead of extra paycheck — it can motivate staff to boost the company’s value, but it also increases the number of shares outstanding and can shrink each existing owner’s slice of profits and voting power. Investors watch it because it affects reported earnings, share count and the alignment between management and shareholders.

  • E-scooter sales revenues from China market were RMB 1,210.6 million, an increase of 14.6% year over year, representing 91.9% of total e-scooter revenues. The increase was mainly due to a 26.2% rise in sales volume, partially offset by a 9.2% decrease in revenues per e-scooter in China market.
  • E-scooter sales revenues from international markets were RMB 106.3 million, an increase of 3.0% year over year, representing 8.1% of total e-scooter revenues. The increase was mainly due to higher sales volume of electric motorcycles and mopeds in international markets.
  • Accessories, spare parts and services revenues were RMB 123.5 million, an increase of 29.0% year over year, representing 8.6% of total revenues. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues from Niu App services, as well as accessories and spare parts sales in China market.
  • Revenues per e-scooter were RMB 3,029, a decrease of 8.6% year over year. This decrease was primarily attributable to a shift in product mix in China market.

Cost of revenues was RMB 1,210.0 million, an increase of 20.6% year over year, mainly due to higher sales volume. The cost per e-scooter, defined as cost of revenues divided by the number of e-scooters sold in a specific period, was RMB 2,784, a decrease of 2.9% from RMB 2,866 in the second quarter of 2025. This decrease was mainly due to a shift in product mix in China market, partially offset by rising upstream supply chain costs.

Gross margin was 16.0%, compared with 20.1% in the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by shifts in product mix in China market, and higher product costs across the upstream supply chain, which put additional pressure on domestic gross margin. The decrease also resulted from lower gross margin on kick-scooters in international markets.

Operating expenses were RMB 340.6 million, an increase of 28.6% from the same period of 2025. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues were 23.6%, compared with 21.1% in the second quarter of 2025.

  • Selling and marketing expenses were RMB 238.6 million (including RMB 1.0 million of share-based compensation expenses), an increase of 18.0% from RMB 202.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, mainly due to an increase of RMB 21.9 million in advertising and promotional expenses in China market, including the quarterly allocation of annual marketing plan, and RMB 12.2 million in depreciation and amortization. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues were 16.6%, compared with 16.1% in the second quarter of 2025.
  • Research and development expenses were RMB 51.5 million (including RMB 0.8 million of share-based compensation expenses), an increase of 17.8% from RMB 43.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, mainly due to an increase of RMB 4.4 million in design and testing expenses, and RMB 2.0 million in staff costs and share-based compensation. Research and development expenses as a percentage of revenues were 3.6%, compared with 3.5% in the second quarter of 2025.
  • General and administrative expenses were RMB 50.5 million (including RMB 2.0 million of share-based compensation expenses), an increase of 165.2% from RMB 19.1 million in the second quarter of 2025, mainly attributable to an increase of RMB 44.2 million in foreign exchange gains or losses, consisting of foreign exchange losses of RMB 19.0 million in this quarter versus foreign exchange gains of RMB 25.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 3.5%, compared with 1.5% in the second quarter of 2025.

Operating expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses were RMB 336.8 million, an increase of 30.9% year over year, representing 23.4% of revenues, compared with 20.5% in the second quarter of 2025.

  • Selling and marketing expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses were RMB 237.6 million, an increase of 18.5% year over year, representing 16.5% of revenues, compared with 16.0% in the second quarter of 2025.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement NIU’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), NIU uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) margin. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. NIU believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its operating results. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to NIU’s historical performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant component in the Company’s results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data.

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses. Adjusted net income (loss) margin is defined as adjusted net income (loss) as a percentage of the revenues.

For more information on non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results”.
