As previously reported, Freedom Capital analyst Roman Lukianchikov upgraded XPeng (XPEV) to Buy from Hold with a price target of $25, up from $20, on positive performance trends. The firm says the company’s results exceeded expectations, but the outlook was dampened by weak guidance for the next quarter.
