Niu Technologies (NASDAQ:NIU) Issues Quarterly Earnings Results

Niu Technologies (NASDAQ:NIU) announced its quarterly earnings results on Monday. The company reported ($0.19) EPS for the quarter, missing analysts’ consensus estimates of $0.19 by ($0.38), FiscalAI reports. Niu Technologies had a negative net margin of 4.39% and a negative return on equity of 23.12%. The firm had revenue of $212.01 million during the quarter, compared to analyst estimates of $173.23 million.

Here are the key takeaways from Niu Technologies’ conference call:

• Q2 sales volume rose 24% year over year to 434,000 units, driven by 26% growth in China to roughly 402,000 units. Electric motorcycles represented about 60% of domestic volume and offset weakness in the premium e-bicycle market.
• Revenue increased 14.7% to RMB 1.44 billion, but gross margin fell 4.1 percentage points to 16% as sales shifted toward lower-margin electric motorcycles, raw-material costs remained elevated, and overseas kick-scooter inventory was cleared. Niu posted a GAAP net loss of RMB 102 million versus net income of RMB 5.9 million a year earlier.
• International electric-motorcycle sales increased 50% year over year, while the dealer network expanded to 417 locations and higher-priced 125cc-plus models reached about half of European volume. Management said this business achieved local profitability and expects continued structural growth.
• Management expects third-quarter revenue of RMB 1.86 billion to RMB 2.03 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 10% to 20%. The company plans to launch additional electric motorcycles and refreshed RMB 5,000–RMB 7,000 e-bikes to improve product mix, average selling prices, and margins.
• Niu is investing in AI-enabled features, brand marketing, and online channels while prioritizing retail efficiency; domestic online sales rose 50% and same-store sales increased 24%. These initiatives support longer-term adoption but contributed to higher selling and marketing expenses during the quarter.
