Management Remarks
Yifan “David” Li, Hesai’s Co-Founder and CEO, commented, “We are delighted to deliver a solid second quarter performance, highlighted by quarterly revenues of RMB458.9 million (US$63.1 million), reaching the high end of our guidance. Total lidar shipments rose 66.1% year-over-year to 86,526 units and blended gross margin remained robust at 45.1%, driven by effective cost management, our flywheel approach to cost and scale optimization, and additional service revenue contributions during the quarter. We are not aware of any other player in the global lidar industry that matches our financial strength while operating on such a massive delivery scale. Our quarterly net loss narrowed significantly by 32.6% quarter-over-quarter to RMB72.1 million (US$9.9 million).
“We are thrilled to announce that Hesai has been recognized as the No. 1 automotive lidar company by market share for the third consecutive year by Yole Intelligence. This prestigious recognition fuels our ambition to achieve even greater success in our AM and ADAS businesses. As a global lidar leader, we are playing a pivotal role in the explosive growth and large-scale commercialization of China’s robotaxi market, evidenced by our selection as the exclusive long-range lidar supplier by all Top 5 robotaxi companies in China, including Baidu’s Apollo Go. Furthermore, our strategic approach of offering both ‘ultimate performance’ and ‘ultimate value-to-cost’ products is generating a robust ADAS order pipeline for 2025 and 2026, with millions of units expected to be shipped domestically and overseas based on customer demand forecasts. Notably, our landmark worldwide shipping programs with a leading automotive OEM are progressing to the delivery of B-samples, placing us well ahead of the competition globally,” added Dr. Li. “Our confidence in our future growth potential has never been higher, driven by strong momentum in the robotaxi and ADAS markets, regulatory developments and consumers’ increasing prioritization of safety. The lidar market in China has reached an exciting inflection point much earlier than expected, with a 22% adoption rate among EVs priced above RMB150,000 as of June. With our versatile product offerings and best-in-class manufacturing scalability, we are perfectly positioned to seize both domestic and international growth opportunities during this dynamic market capture phase.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Hesai's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, Hesai uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: loss from operation excluding share-based compensation expenses, net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses, net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation, and per ordinary share net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation. 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this release.
Hesai believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. Hesai 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 Hesai's historical performance and liquidity. Hesai 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 they exclude share-based compensation expenses that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP financial measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
