NavInfo's vehicle-data compliance revenue rose 56% as its chip and ADAS lines shrank
The Beijing mapping and chip supplier said its automotive data-compliance service line grew to 618 million yuan, about a third of group revenue, while unit prices fell across its other businesses.
NavInfo reported first-half revenue of 1.77 billion yuan, up 0.36 percent, and a net loss attributable to shareholders of 489 million yuan, a loss 57.41 percent wider than a year earlier. The interim report was disclosed through Shenzhen’s cninfo system on August 26 under the English name SeeWay.ai Co., Ltd.
The company’s automotive data-compliance service line grew 56 percent to 618 million yuan, making it about a third of group revenue on its own. NavInfo attributed the demand to China’s 2026 guidelines on the security of cross-border vehicle data transfers, and said it had become convener of the data standards working group under the industry ministry’s TC8 committee in July.
Its other lines were flatter or falling. Chip revenue fell 5.94 percent to 244 million yuan and assisted-driving revenue rose 1.06 percent to 78 million yuan, while cockpit revenue rose 22.91 percent to 145 million yuan. NavInfo said unit prices for assisted driving, automotive chips and high-definition maps continued to decline as carmakers cut component budgets. Research and development spending fell 15.89 percent to 465 million yuan, and operating cash flow was negative 267 million yuan.
On products, NavInfo said cumulative assisted-driving design wins passed nine million sets, across production programs on more than 120 vehicle models. Its AC7870x microcontroller was certified to ISO 26262 ASIL-D by TÜV Rheinland, its AC7840 cleared the market regulator’s automotive chip certification framework in June, and shipments of its AC8015 cockpit system-on-chip passed five million units, more than half of them exported.
