While vehicle deliveries in the first quarter rose increased 20.5% year over year, they decreased by 22% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2022. But that information was already known from the company's delivery update released on April 1. Investors had sold that news, with the stock declining by more than 25% since that day.

Nio reported an adjusted net loss of $0.35 per share on revenue of nearly $1.6 billion. Wall Street analysts expected a net loss of $0.39 per share from sales of $1.7 billion.
