XPeng (NYSE:XPEV) Valuation Check After November Delivery Slowdown and Strong Year‑to‑Date Growth

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

XPeng (XPEV) just posted fresh November delivery numbers, and they are a bit of a mixed bag that still leans encouraging for long term holders watching the company’s execution closely.

See our latest analysis for XPeng.

That mix of softer monthly deliveries but powerful year to date growth seems to mirror the stock action, with a recent 30 day share price return of minus 10.79 percent but a much stronger year to date share price return of 73.16 percent, and a 1 year total shareholder return of 60 percent. This suggests momentum is still broadly building as investors reassess XPeng’s long term growth and risk profile.

If XPeng’s swingy ride has you thinking about what else is out there in EVs, it could be a good moment to explore auto manufacturers for other potential opportunities.

With XPeng shares still more than 40 percent below analyst targets and revenue accelerating, the core question now is whether the market is overlooking its improving fundamentals or already factoring in the next phase of growth.

Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 29.2% Undervalued

With XPeng last closing at $20 against a narrative fair value near the high twenties, the gap hinges on aggressive growth and margin expansion assumptions.

The company's aggressive international expansion now showing triple digit growth in overseas deliveries and entry into local manufacturing in Indonesia positions XPeng to capture EV adoption tailwinds in both developed and emerging markets, diversifying revenue and bolstering medium

to long term top line growth.

Result: Fair Value of $28.24 (UNDERVALUED)

However, persistent net losses and fierce domestic EV price competition could delay profitability, forcing further dilution and challenging the upbeat international expansion narrative.

Another View: Market Ratios Flash a Caution Light

While our narrative fair value and DCF style work suggest upside, XPeng’s current price to sales ratio of 1.9 times looks stretched versus US auto peers at 0.9 times and even its own 1.5 times fair ratio. This hints at downside risk if sentiment cools.
