- Trading Suspension: Zeekr's shares were suspended on December 22, moving closer to its privatization plan, which is expected to subtract $440 million from total fundraising, reflecting the changing market dynamics between China and the U.S.
- Financial Performance: In Q3, Zeekr reported a 9% year-on-year revenue increase to 31.6 billion yuan ($4.5 billion), while narrowing its loss to 307 million yuan, indicating heightened competitive pressure in the EV market.
- Sales Data: As of November, Zeekr's EV sales totaled 193,866 units, down 0.55% year-on-year, while parent company Lynk & Co. saw a 22% increase in sales, highlighting a loss of market share for Zeekr.
- Market Environment: The increasingly hostile listing environment for Chinese companies in the U.S. is exemplified by Nasdaq's proposed stricter listing requirements, prompting more firms to reconsider their financing strategies, with Zeekr's privatization reflecting this trend.
