Insights
Pony AI signals a sharply reduced 2025 loss driven by investment fair value gains.
Pony AI Inc. expects its 2025 net loss to narrow to between USD69.0 million and USD86.0 million, from USD275.0 million in 2024. Net loss attributable to the company is projected between USD126.0 million and USD143.0 million, versus USD274.1 million previously.
The company attributes the improvement mainly to increased gains from fair value changes in investments in publicly traded companies. This means a significant part of the better headline result is tied to market movements in securities the Group holds, rather than underlying operating performance.
The announcement stresses that these figures are based on unaudited management accounts and remain subject to adjustment. It also notes that future financial performance may change with fluctuations in the prices of the publicly traded stocks held, highlighting ongoing exposure to market volatility. Detailed results are expected in the annual announcement by the end of March 2026.

POSITIVE PROFIT ALERT
REDUCTION IN LOSS
This announcement is made by Pony AI Inc. (the “Company”, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) pursuant to Rule 13.09(2) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Listing Rules”) and the Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).
The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) wishes to inform the shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) and potential investors that, based on a preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Reporting Period”) and information currently available, the Group is expected to record (i) a net loss ranging from approximately USD69.0 million to USD86.0 million during the Reporting Period, compared with a net loss of USD275.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, and (ii) a net loss attributable to Pony AI Inc. ranging from approximately USD126.0 million to USD143.0 million during the Reporting Period, compared with a net loss attributable to Pony AI Inc. of USD274.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decreases in net loss and net loss attributable to Pony AI Inc. were mainly attributable to the increase in the gain on fair value change in investments in publicly traded companies during the Reporting Period. The future financial performance of the Group may be subject to change due to, among others, the fluctuation of the price of publicly traded stocks held by the Group. The Company would define non-GAAP financial measures by excluding the impact of the change in fair value of investments in publicly traded companies for the Reporting Period.
The Board would like to remind the Shareholders that the Company is in the process of finalising the annual results announcement of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025. The information contained in this announcement is only based on the preliminary review of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group and information currently available to the Board, which has not been reviewed or audited by the Company’s auditors, nor reviewed by the audit committee of the Board, and is subject to adjustments upon further review. The actual results of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025 may be different from the information contained in this announcement. Details of the Group’s financial results and performance will be further disclosed in the annual results announcement for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is expected to be published by the end of March 2026.
