$265 -> $249

2025-11-17

Reason

The analyst rating for HESAI-W (02525.HK) was maintained at "Buy" by Goldman Sachs due to the company's 3Q25 results beating expectations. However, the firm expressed concerns about the wide guidance range for 2026 revenue, suggesting that if the growth falls at the lower end of the projected 10-20%, it could disappoint the market. Additionally, while Goldman Sachs raised its 2025 non-GAAP net income forecast by 16%, it lowered its forecasts for 2026-2030 by 4-9% due to anticipated price declines from intensified competition. Consequently, the target prices for HESAI-W's H-shares and US stock were trimmed by 6%.
