China Internet: Strong top-line growth and margins further hurt in 2H2...
China’s internet companies reported intact 2Q25 top-line with mixed earnings results. The key focuses are on the latest quick commerce war and AI cloud and agent development. In 2Q25, we saw meaningful AI monetisation visibility contributing to incremental top-line growth, and expect this momentum to continue into 2H25. On the profitability front, margins will remain under pressure from heightened investments to fend off the intensifying competition in on-demand delivery. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.

PDD Holdings (PDD US): 2Q25: Earnings above expectations; revenue in l...
PDD’s 2Q25 earnings exceeded expectations. Revenue increased 7% yoy to Rmb104b, in line with consensus estimates, dampened by sluggish commission revenue growth. Non-GAAP net profit dropped 5% yoy to Rmb32.7b, 46% above consensus estimate. Non-GAAP net margin shrank 4ppt to 31.5%. Looking ahead, PDD expects its top-line growth and profitability to continue fluctuating due to its merchant support strategy. Upgrade to HOLD with a lower target price of US$117.00.

PDD 2Q25 Results: Profitability to Fluctuate in the Coming Quarters

The company is also willing to accept lower profits to consistently reinvest in the platform ecosystem in the long run. Despite attractive valuation (11.2x FY26E P/E), top-line face limited upside to current estimates amid intense competition in the domestic market...

China Internet: 618 Festival – Evolving consumer trends and continued ...
The national subsidies programme continued to reinforce the consumption trend of “value-based substitution” during the 618 festival. While the share of online vs offline spending remained stable, emerging channels are creating new growth opportunities. We believe the consumption momentum will be shaped by: a) impact from the temporary suspension of the national subsidies programme in five provinces, and b) changes in the food delivery competitive landscape. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.

What’s new: PDD’s reported 1Q25 results that were below consensus and our expectations. PDD noted that profitability is likely to face challenges in the near-term and potentially over a longer period partly due to continued merchant support amid a challenging environment in both domestic and overseas markets. We lower our PT from US$150 to USD$120 on lowered outlook. Our updated PT of US$120 implies a 16.0x FY25E P/E. We maintain our BUY rating. Analysts: Jin Yoon

Chinese internet companies’ share prices have dropped 10-30% mtd following the implementation of incremental tariffs from the US. Chinese internet companies have limited business exposure to the US except for PDD’s Temu. However, the 34% tariffs announced by China on all US imports could have potential implications for China mega-caps’ AI capex in relation to US chip imports. We prefer domestic-focused plays which stand to benefit from domestic policy stimuli, with Southbound inflow to be a key ...
