BYD Beats Q3 Analyst Expectations; HSBC Cuts Price Target But Cites Continued Growth
Portfolio Pulse from Daniel Harrison
BYD Company Limited reported Q3 2023 earnings that beat analyst expectations, with sales of 162 billion RMB ($22.1 billion), a 38.49% improvement YoY, and net profit of 9.7 billion RMB, up 81% YoY. Despite the strong performance, HSBC cut its price target for BYD by 4% due to increased A-share and H-share spread, but maintained its Buy rating. HSBC also predicts Q4 earnings will rise and forecasts an additional increase in earnings growth of 7-16% for the 2023-2025 period.
