GWMOTOR (02333.HK) reported a 46% YoY/ 23% QoQ decline in 1Q26 net profit to RMB945 million, missing expectation, representing only 9% of UOB Kay Hian's full-year forecast, UOB Kay Hian published a research report saying.

The earnings decline was mainly due to higher-than-expected selling and R&D expenses. However, excluding the RMB1.03 billion foreign exchange gain recorded in the same period last year, 1Q26 net profit would have posted a YoY growth of over 30%.

Therefore, UOB Kay Hian kept rating at Buy, but lowered its 2026-2028 net profit forecasts by 15%/ 16%/ 17% each on higher expense ratio. The broker cut its target price from $16 to $15, based on an unchanged projected 2026 PE ratio of 12x.
