Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
EPS was negative in at least one boundary year, so a compound growth rate can't be computed from it. Set your own assumption.
- EPS in 5 years
- $1.64
- Implied price
- $29.52
- Return from $10.69
- 22.5% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $14.67 — today's price is already 27.2% below that.
How sensitive is that answer?
Annual return across nearby assumptions. If the result is only attractive in one corner, that is the finding.
| growth \ P/E | 12 | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -2.0% | 2.5% | 7.2% | 11.2% | 14.7% | 17.8% |
| 3.0% | 7.7% | 12.7% | 16.9% | 20.5% | 23.8% |
| 8.0% | 13.0% | 18.1% | 22.5% | 26.4% | 29.8% |
| 13.0% | 18.2% | 23.6% | 28.2% | 32.2% | 35.8% |
| 18.0% | 23.4% | 29.1% | 33.9% | 38.1% | 41.8% |
This is arithmetic on assumptions you chose, not a forecast or a recommendation. It ignores dividends, buybacks, share issuance and debt, and it assumes a company still earning money in 5 years. Change any input and the answer changes a lot — that sensitivity is the honest result, not a flaw in the model.

…on Risks Remain - Too Cheap To Ignore Robust August deliveries, new model launches (Li MEGA, i9 SUV, refreshed i6), and accelerated global market expansion may boost LI's metrics in H2'26/FY2027.

Li Auto: Solid Q2 Margin Recovery Indicates Turnaround Potential Li Auto delivered a modestly robust Q2, beating top line estimates, but seeing revenue pressure due to falling volumes. LI improved its vehicle margin to 9.4% in Q2, and is therefore still trailing the EV competition. Nonetheless, Li Auto's financial and operating performance could be improving if new product launches, such as refreshed L-Series models and the new Li MEGA, become a success.

Li Auto: Competitive Destruction Li Auto Inc. faces intense competition in China's EV market, limiting growth and margin prospects despite its high-end SUV/MPV niche. Q2 '26 results were slightly better than expected, but guidance was cut to 400k units for 2026, and gross margin targets were reduced to 15–20%. I assign a Sell rating on LI, valuing shares at 12x PE—below consensus—due to limited upside and challenging competitive dynamics.
