Robotaxi Business Update

Robotaxi remained a key driver of our operational growth during the reporting period, powered by continued commercialization in China and ongoing international deployment. During the period, we have advanced toward a more data-driven autonomy stack by incorporating end-to-end learning, leveraging large-scale data training and world model simulation, as well as improving algorithm generalization. As of the date of this announcement, our global robotaxi fleet size has reached the new height of 1,125 vehicles.

China Operations

• Total cost of ownership (TCO) reduced by 38%. This improvement was primarily driven by improved operating efficiency and lower vehicle bill of materials (BOM) costs. The upgrade of our remote assistance system, driven by technological advancements and GENESIS’s enhanced capability to resolve edge cases, improved the remote assistance human-to-vehicle ratio from 1:10 in 2024 to 1:40. This materially reduced labor cost per vehicle and supports scalable unit economics. Additionally, BOM costs dropped by 15% with the newly upgraded robotaxi GXR, powered by our cost-effective compute platform HPC 3.0.
   
• Better fleet utilization and broader network expansion. Fleet utilization continued to improve, supported by an expanding operating area and broader service coverage. Our commercial and testing fleet in China has surpassed 800 robotaxis, increasing operational density and reducing passenger waiting times, with the latest “free pickup and drop off point” feature across the operating area. Over the past six months, average daily orders per vehicle reached 15, rising to 26 during peak periods, reflecting stronger demand and improved utilization. Our rollout in mega-metropolitan areas such as Beijing and Guangzhou has expanded coverage to over 1,000 square kilometers, including key transportation hubs like airports and major railway stations, with further penetration into high-demand districts such as Tianhe, a CBD area in Guangzhou.
   
• Customer reach broadened via major mobility platforms. In addition to the WeRide Go app and the “WeRide Go” Wechat Mini Program, WeRide’s robotaxi service has been integrated into major mobility platforms like the “Tencent Mobility Service” Wechat Mini Program and Amap, and will be soon available on Tencent Maps, making our robotaxis more accessible across China. During the fourth quarter of 2025, registered users of WeRide robotaxi service saw a year-over-year growth of more than 900%, indicating that our operating performance increasingly resonates with users.

International Operations

• Expansion focuses on markets with supportive regulatory environments and favorable unit economics. We are leading the global expansion of robotaxis in key international markets, focusing on regions with supportive regulations and strong unit economics. Currently, our deployments span the Middle East, Europe, and developed Asia-Pacific, with a fleet of over 250 robotaxis outside China and the U.S. This represents the largest robotaxi fleet operated in these regions.
   
• First driverless robotaxi permit in Europe. In November 2025, WeRide received the first-ever driverless robotaxi permit for passenger service in Europe from Switzerland’s Federal Roads Office (FEDRO), authorizing autonomous operations in the Greater Zurich across a 110-kilometer operating area. This milestone establishes WeRide’s first-mover advantage in the European market and positions the Company to leverage Europe’s regulatory framework to support expansion into additional European markets.
   
• Landmark driverless robotaxi permit and commercial launch in Abu Dhabi. In October 2025, WeRide secured the world’s first city-level fully driverless robotaxi commercial permit outside the U.S., removing the requirement for an in-vehicle safety officer and enabling unit economics breakeven of the Abu Dhabi fleet. In November 2025, WeRide and Uber launched fully driverless robotaxi commercial operations in Abu Dhabi and expanded to cover 70% of the city’s core area over time. Passengers can book under Uber Comfort, UberX, or the new “Autonomous” category, Uber’s first dedicated autonomous ride option globally.
   
• Autonomous Vehicle (AV) launch with Grab in Singapore. In November 2025, WeRide and Grab commenced autonomous vehicle testing in Singapore. WeRide’s robotaxi and robobus are expected to begin carrying public passengers by April 2026, making Punggol Singapore’s first residential neighborhood with an autonomous shuttle service.
   
• Robotaxi launch in Dubai and expansion across the Middle East. In December 2025, WeRide, in partnership with Uber and Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), launched public robotaxi passenger rides in Dubai, allowing riders to book a WeRide Robotaxi through the ‘Autonomous’ option on the Uber app. In October 2025, WeRide and Uber also began offering the first public robotaxi rides in Riyadh, and WeRide launched robotaxi GXR and robobus pilot operations in Ras Al Khaimah, expanding into a third UAE emirate.
   
• Global footprint expanded to a 12^th country. In March 2026, WeRide announced its entry into Slovakia through a strategic partnership with ELEVATE Slovakia to deploy autonomous vehicles including robotaxi, robobus, robovan, and robosweeper, launching the country’s first AV program. This national-level rollout represents Europe’s first large-scale, multi-product autonomous driving commercial deployment. The move marks WeRide’s fourth European market after France, Belgium, and Switzerland, bringing its global footprint to over 40 cities across 12 countries.
   
• Scalable and capital-efficient growth model. We adopt an asset-light approach that keeps vehicles off balance sheet by leveraging partners and leasing firms. This enables faster city launches and avoids cold-start issues through hybrid fleets, while strengthening pricing power, improving economics, and enhancing regulatory appeal.
   
• Global deployment continues to advance toward our medium – and long-term targets. We have expanded services in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Riyadh, while advancing operations in Switzerland and Singapore. Based on our current expansion pipeline, our global robotaxi fleet is projected to reach 2,600 vehicles by the end of 2026, subject to market and regulatory conditions. These developments lay the foundation for our long-term plan to deploy tens of thousands of robotaxis globally by 2030.

Other Autonomous Applications

• Our L2+ advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), WePilot 3.0, has been adopted by OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers, including Chery, GAC, and Bosch, across multiple vehicle models. The system features a single-stage end-to-end architecture and vision-based perception, enabling scalable deployment and strong performance across diverse driving conditions. In the Second China Urban Intelligent Driving Competition hosted by D1EV.COM, Chery Exeed, a mass market passenger car model powered by WePilot 3.0, made history by winning first place in three competition stops.
   
• Our diversified mobility applications generate additional revenue streams and support our presence in 12 countries globally. WeRide’s global AV fleet, spanning robotaxis, robobuses, robovans, and robosweepers, grew rapidly from 1,089 vehicles at the end of 2024 to 2,113 as of the date of this announcement.
   
• Our robobus business recorded approximately 190% year-over-year revenue growth in 2025. We expanded into European markets, including Switzerland, France, Belgium, Spain, and Slovakia, where labor shortages in public transportation systems are increasing demand for autonomous shuttles.

Technology Development

• WeRide GENESIS accelerates AI-driven development. We launched WeRide GENESIS, a general-purpose simulation platform that combines physical AI and generative AI to generate photorealistic virtual driving environments, including rare edge cases, in minutes rather than days. WeRide GENESIS enables unsupervised, closed-loop training at scale, accelerating model iteration and safety validation while significantly reducing on-road testing costs, and reinforcing the technological moat underpinning our L2-to-L4 product portfolio.
   
• Next-generation GXR delivers safer, lower-cost robotaxis at scale. We deepened our collaboration with Geely Farizon to deliver the next-generation robotaxi GXR as a purpose-built, factory pre-installed autonomous vehicle — eliminating post-production retrofitting and delivering higher safety consistency, lower unit costs, and faster assembly. The upgraded GXR will enter serial production equipped with HPC 3.0, our proprietary high-performance computing platform with a more compute-efficient architecture, reducing per-vehicle production time to under 10 minutes and further strengthening the scalability of our asset-light deployment model with fleet partners.

Share Repurchase Program

On March 23, 2026, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program, effective as of March 23, 2026, under which we may repurchase up to US$100 million of our Class A ordinary shares (including in the form of American depositary shares) over the next 12 months, subject to the scope and limit of the repurchase mandate granted by shareholders of the Company on March 13, 2026 and the approval of a similar repurchase mandate to be put forward to shareholders at the upcoming 2026 annual general meeting of the Company.

Our proposed repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. Our board of directors will review the implementation of the share repurchase program periodically and may modify, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program as it shall deem necessary or desirable. We expect to fund the repurchases out of our existing cash balance. As of the date of this press release, no share repurchase plan has been entered into and shareholders and prospective investors of the Company should note that there is no assurance of the timing, quantity or price of any share repurchase or whether the Company will make any repurchase at all. Shareholders and prospective investors of the Company should exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.

³ Adjusted net loss is defined as net loss for the period excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value changes of financial assets at FVTPL and changes in the carrying amounts of preferred shares and other financial instruments subject to redemption and other preferential rights.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures

In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted net loss as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. The Company believes that adjusted net loss provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s consolidated results of operations in the same manner as it helps the Company’s management. The Company defines adjusted net loss as net loss for the period excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value changes of financial assets at FVTPL and changes in the carrying amounts of preferred shares and other financial instruments subject to redemption and other preferential rights.

The Company presents the non-IFRS financial measure because it is used by its management to evaluate its operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net loss enables the Company’s management to assess the Company’s operating results without considering the impact of the aforementioned non-cash adjustment items that it does not consider to be indicative of its core operations. Accordingly, the Company believes that the use of this non-IFRS financial measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors.

This non-IFRS financial measure is not defined under IFRS Accounting Standard and is not presented in accordance with IFRS. The non-IFRS financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using the adjusted net loss is that it does not reflect all items of expenses that affect the Company’s operations. Further, this non-IFRS measure may differ from the non-IFRS information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore its comparability may be limited.

The non-IFRS financial measure should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to loss for the period or any other measure of performance information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standard or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s historical non-IFRS financial measure in light of the most directly comparable IFRS measure, as shown below. The non-IFRS financial measure presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measure presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing the Company’s data comparatively. It is encouraged that you review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Conference Call

The Company’s management will hold an earnings conference call at 8:00 A.M. U.S. Eastern Time on Monday, March 23, 2026 or 8:00 P.M. Hong Kong Time to discuss its financial results and operating performance for the fourth quarter and full year 2025.
