2026-02-06 14:09:38 YUM CHINA (09987.HK)'s share price surged 11% on 5 February (yesterday), and the Company's 4Q25 results beat expectations, Daiwa published a research report saying. The broker believed that the uptrend is due to a shift in investor perception regarding the competition and pricing environment in China's catering industry. KFC's 4Q25 same-store sales were better than expected, and the price hike in delivery channels in January indicates a recovery in consumer confidence and a rationalization of industry pricing. Although YUM CHINA's management forecasted only a slight YoY increase in operating profit margin for 2026, the improving competitive landscape in the China market is expected to provide room for profit margins to still beat market consensus, Daiwa noted. Therefore, the broker reiterated rating at Buy on YUM CHINA, and elevated its target price from $450 to $520. ~ AASTOCKS Financial News Website: www.aastocks.com | |
