Reason
The analyst rating from BOCI is a "Buy" for XIAOMI-W (01810.HK), despite challenges in the smartphone industry and uncertainties in EV production. The rationale behind this rating is based on the potential for Xiaomi's new products (including EVs, smartphones, and IoT products) to replicate past successes in the mass market. Although the broker has adjusted its forecasts to account for BOM cost pressures, uncertainty in EV production capacity, and purchase tax subsidy costs, they still believe that the stock can regain its value if these new products perform well. The target price has been lowered from HK$69.04 to HK$56.21, reflecting these adjustments.

Citi gave XIAOMI-W a Buy rating based on the company's strong delivery performance, with over 40,000 electric vehicles delivered in November and an estimated cumulative total of over 355,000 units for the year, which is 89% of its annual target of 400,000 vehicles. The current delivery rate of over 10,000 vehicles per week suggests that XIAOMI-W is on track to meet its target, supporting the positive outlook reflected in the target price of HKD50.

Reason
The analyst rating for XIAOMI-W (01810.HK) from Morgan Stanley is based on historical data showing that the company has successfully expanded its smartphone gross margins during previous periods of rising DRAM prices (2016-17, 2019-21, and 2022-23). This success is attributed to XIAOMI's effective cost transfer mechanism and its ability to implement product price hikes in response to significant cost increases. The report suggests that if memory costs enter a prolonged super cycle, smartphone gross margins may face downward pressure, but there is potential for recovery in corporate profit margins if the cycle reverses. Consequently, Morgan Stanley has given XIAOMI-W an Overweight rating with a target price of HKD62.
