This is a routine disclosure of ongoing buyback activity under an existing mandate. The repurchases are small relative to total shares outstanding and do not signal a change in strategy or financial health. Monitor the next monthly return or 20-F for cumulative buyback totals and any cancellation decisions. No immediate trading action warranted.

Executive Summary
Li Auto Inc. filed a Form 6-K on May 26, 2026, reporting routine share repurchases on the Nasdaq Global Select Market over four consecutive trading days (May 18-21, 2026). The company repurchased a total of 5,030,058 Class A ordinary shares for approximately $40.9 million, all held as treasury shares. This is a routine capital allocation disclosure under Hong Kong listing rules with no material new information about the company's financial performance or operations.
Key Facts
- Li Auto repurchased 5,030,058 Class A ordinary shares on Nasdaq between May 18-21, 2026
- Total aggregate repurchase price was approximately $40.9 million (USD 40,941,615.02)
- All repurchased shares were held as treasury shares, none cancelled
- Repurchase prices ranged from $7.8225 to $8.50 per share
- Total treasury shares held as of May 21, 2026: 14,010,574 shares
- Remaining authorization under repurchase mandate: 214,088,226 shares (as of May 30, 2025 resolution)
- Moratorium periods on new share issuance extend to June 17-20, 2026

Financial Impact
Approximately $40.9 million deployed for share repurchases over four days, representing about 0.28% of total issued shares (excluding treasury) based on the May 21 closing balance
Risk Factors
- Continued share repurchases reduce cash reserves, though $40.9M is immaterial for a company of Li Auto's size
- No cancellation of repurchased shares means potential overhang from treasury shares that could be re-sold
- The 30-day moratorium on new issuance following each repurchase may limit financing flexibility through mid-June 2026
