UCAR Earnings: Can History Shed Light on Today’s Move?
Click to view the earnings moves in UCAR
U Power Limited (NASDAQ: UCAR) released its latest unaudited financial results for the first half of 2025 today, delivering robust revenue growth, surging gross profit, and ambitious international expansion plans. Despite these positives, UCAR shares slid by 2% to $2.00 after the report. With options markets barely expecting any volatility (pricing in a ±0.0% move), it’s worth asking: is UCAR’s price action just business as usual after earnings—or does history hint at more beneath the surface?
Historical Patterns: How Does UCAR React to Earnings?
If you’re looking for a textbook case of post-earnings volatility bias, UCAR delivers. Historically, UCAR’s stock has not just struggled after reporting results—it’s set a consistent pattern of negative returns, even as management touts growth and innovation.
| Stock Performance | Earnings Move | Open Gap | Open to High | Open to Low | Open to Close |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Average Return | -2.5% | -0.5% | +3.2% | -4.2% | -1.9% |
| % of Moves Up | 0.0% | 33.3% | 33.3% | ||
| % of Moves Down | 100.0% | 66.7% | 66.7% |
UCAR's stock has declined on every earnings day in the last three years, averaging a -2.5% move. Gaps at the open skew negative two-thirds of the time, and the drift from open to close stays negative 66.7% of the time. On average, the price has fallen further after the opening bell.

How Big Are the Earnings Day Moves—And Are They One-Sided?
| Stock Performance | Earnings Move | Open Gap | Open to High | Open to Low | Open to Close |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absolute Average Return | 2.5% | 1.1% | 3.2% | 4.2% | 2.7% |
| Max Absolute Return | 5.2% | 1.5% | 5.3% | 6.2% | 5.9% |
| Min Absolute Return | 0.3% | 0.8% | 0.5% | 2.7% | 1.0% |
Even on the mildest earnings day, the smallest move was -0.3%. UCAR’s maximum drop from open to low has been 6.2% in a session. These statistics highlight how often and how deeply UCAR stock tends to sell off around earnings—rarely offering reprieve for bulls.
Post-Earnings: Is There Relief After the Initial Move?
| Stock Performance | 1 Day After Earnings | 2 Days After Earnings | 3 Days After Earnings | 1 Week After Earnings | 2 Weeks After Earnings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Average Return | -0.7% | -4.9% | -2.2% | -4.6% | -3.9% |
| % of Moves Up | 50.0% | 0.0% | 50.0% | 50.0% | 50.0% |
| % of Moves Down | 50.0% | 100.0% | 50.0% | 50.0% | 50.0% |
The pattern continues beyond earnings day. The average return two days after earnings is a steep -4.9%, with 100% of those days seeing a move lower. Even one or two weeks out, losses remain the norm more often than not.
Does Today Change the Narrative?
While the numbers from the latest report show substantial progress—like H1 revenues up 34.4% and gross profit surging over 550%—investors don’t seem impressed, judging by another negative price reaction. With only a few earnings in its trading history, UCAR’s sample size isn’t huge, but the pattern is clear: optimism about the future has not translated to post-earnings gains.
However, there are bright spots. The company’s expansion across Asia and partnerships in markets from Hong Kong and Thailand to Mexico and Portugal hint at ambitious international goals. Its deepening integration of AI and Web3 tech in battery swapping could eventually move the narrative, especially if it turns revenue momentum into net profits.
The Bottom Line: Is the Post-Earnings Dip a Habit—or an Opportunity?
History says UCAR is one of the rare companies with a reliable tendency for earnings-day and post-earnings weakness, even when results seem upbeat. For investors or traders, the persistent negative drift is impossible to ignore. Will continued operational gains finally shift this story—or is today just another chapter in the same pattern?
