$NIO Inc(NIO.US) NIO has made significant progress towards profitability, reporting its first non-GAAP operating profit in Q4 2025 and strong delivery volumes in Q1 2026. The launch of the All-New ES8, which achieved nearly 25% gross margins, marks a shift in focus from delivery growth to improving margins and operating leverage. However, volatility remains relevant as competition is stiff in China. NIO is not the only company capable of delivering high standards EVs, and therefore the upcoming earnings report will tell investors more on their ambition and forward plans. @Bridge Buzz SG
