ECARX Holdings Inc. Class A Ordinary shares (ECX)

Q3 2026

ECARX grows revenue and partnerships but keeps diluting and missing targets

  • Convertible notes upsized to $130 million, diluting shareholders ECARX raised more money than planned by selling $130 million of convertible notes that can turn into shares at $2.62. That means existing owners' stakes get smaller, and the stock fell nearly 6% before the market opened. More shares eventually means each share is worth a smaller slice of the company.

    This is a fresh capital-raising event that directly pressures ECX shares through dilution.

  • Q2 revenue grew 45% but missed estimates and guidance stayed below consensus Second-quarter revenue rose 45% to $225.2 million, yet it still came in slightly below what analysts expected. The company kept its full-year revenue target of $1.0–$1.1 billion, which is under the $1.14 billion consensus. Growth is real, but expectations are not being beaten.

    The Q2 report is the period's core financial update and shows both strong growth and a guidance shortfall.

  • Global expansion, 12 million vehicles, and new AI and LiDAR partnerships ECARX said its technology is now in over 12 million vehicles across 18 automakers, adding 914,000 in the first half of 2026. It also announced a Tencent Cloud AI integration, a LiDAR partnership with TPK, and a share exchange with Qualcomm Ventures. More design wins and partners support future revenue.

    These are new commercial and technology wins that underpin the bull case for ECX.

  • First-half loss narrows but company still unprofitable ECARX reported a first-half loss of $0.06 per share on $356.7 million of revenue, up 10.3% from a year earlier. The loss is smaller and revenue is growing, but the company still spends more than it earns, so it depends on outside cash and future profits to keep going.

    This is the latest earnings update and shows the ongoing profitability challenge that weighs on the stock.

DENSO CORPORATION (6902.JP)

Q3 2026

Denso profit miss and quake supply hit outweigh Micron deal

  • April–June profit falls 14%, full-year forecast misses estimates Denso's quarterly net profit dropped 14.4% to 67.8 billion yen as higher material costs and growth spending squeezed margins. Revenue rose on electrification and smart products, but the unchanged full-year profit forecast of 382 billion yen badly missed the 424.6 billion yen analysts expected. The earnings miss is the main reason the stock plunged on July 31.

    This is the single biggest new company-specific event and directly explains the stock's sharp fall.

  • Kumamoto earthquake forces Toyota plant halts, Denso checks suppliers Toyota will stop its Tahara plant from August 3–7 and extend shutdowns at three Fukuoka plants after the Kumamoto earthquake damaged Aisin Kyushu's factory. Denso is investigating damage at its own suppliers. Multi-tier supply chains take time to assess, so production cuts at major customers threaten Denso's near-term sales and parts deliveries.

    A fresh supply-chain disruption that can reduce Denso's production and revenue in coming weeks.

  • Micron multi-year AI memory deals include Denso as partner Micron completed long-term Strategic Customer Agreements with seven automotive suppliers, including Denso, securing advanced memory and storage for AI-enabled vehicles. For Denso, this locks in supply visibility and pricing certainty for key electronics, supporting its intelligent-product roadmap. The deals are a modest positive but not enough to offset the profit miss.

    A new partnership that supports Denso's technology and supply outlook, though smaller than the earnings hit.
