NIO Stock Price Up Five-Fold Year to Date

The Nio Inc. (NIO) boom continues.

Over the last two months, the NIO stock price soared from
$11 to a recent high of $18. From here, NIO stock could see higher highs after
reporting another record month of deliveries.

For August 2020, NIO completed 3,965 – a year over year
increase of just over 104%. That’s also a 12.2% jump month over month. Cumulative
deliveries, says the company, are up to 21,667 for the year, an increase of
nearly 110% year over year, as well.

“In August, we
achieved our best-ever monthly performance on both deliveries and order
growth,” said William Bin Li, founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of
NIO. “As we continue to improve the production capacity for all NIO products,
our monthly capacity will reach 5,000 units in September to support our future
deliveries. With the closing of our recently announced ADS offering, we have
further enhanced our balance sheet and optimized our capital structure to be
better prepared for the acceleration of our core technology development,
autonomous driving in particular, and the global market expansion in the
future.”

For July 2020, the company quadrupled its EV sales. In fact,
sales were up 322% to 3,533 vehicles – its second best month ever.

179% year over year. “In June, we achieved a historical high of monthly
deliveries, contributing to our best quarterly performance. We appreciate the
continuous support from our growing and loyal user community,” William Bin Li,
Nio’s chairman and CEO, said.

In addition, UBS analyst Paul Gong upgraded the stock to the
equivalent of a Hold from a Sell. The analyst also raised his price target from
$1 to $16, according to Barron’s.
