$38.2 million ) in the third quarter of 2020, representing an increase of150.7% from the third quarter of 2019 and an increase of11.3% from the second quarter of 2020.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
- Cost of sales was RMB3,940.1 million (US
$580.3 million ) in the third quarter of 2020, representing an increase of91.4% from the third quarter of 2019 and an increase of15.7% from the second quarter of 2020.

12.9% , compared with negative12.1% in the third quarter of 2019 and8.4% in the second quarter of 2020.

14.5% , compared with negative6.8% in the third quarter of 2019 and9.7% in the second quarter of 2020. The increase of vehicle margin, compared to the third quarter of 2019 and the second quarter of 2020, was mainly driven by the decrease in purchase price of certain materials and lower unit manufacturing cost attributed from increased production volume of the ES6 and ES8 in the third quarter of 2020.
Operating Expenses
- Research and development expenses were RMB590.8 million (US
$87.0 million ) in the third quarter of 2020, representing a decrease of42.3% from the third quarter of 2019 and an increase of8.4% from the second quarter of 2020.

The decrease in research and development expenses over the third quarter of 2019 was primarily attributed to the higher design and development costs incurred in the third quarter of 2019 for EC6 and all-new ES8 launched in the fourth quarter of 2019, and the Company’s overall cost-saving efforts and the improved operational efficiency in research and development functions since the fourth quarter of 2019.

- Loss from operations was RMB946.0 million (US

The decrease in share-based compensation expenses over the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to less options granted driven by the decline in the number of employees, and the impact of part of the share-based compensation expenses being recognized by using the accelerated method, under which the expenses decrease gradually over the vesting period.

Non-GAAP Disclosure
The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted cost of sales (non-GAAP), adjusted research and development expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted loss from operations (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP), adjusted basic and diluted net loss per share (non-GAAP) and adjusted basic and diluted net loss per ADS (non-GAAP), in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated statements of comprehensive loss data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.
For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
