CLSA: LI NING's 2H25 NP Strongly Beats; Focus on This Yr's Guidance
2026-03-20 11:24:41
LI NING (02331.HK)'s 2H25 sales/ net profit increased by 3%/ 13% YoY, surpassing market expectations by 4%/ 28%, according to a report from CLSA.

Excluding government subsidies, LI NING's 2H25 net profit would have grown by 17% YoY. The growth in sales was mainly driven by a YoY surge of 8% in wholesale sales, compared to the market expectation of a 3% increase.

For the full year of 2025, LI NING's sales and net profit rose by 3% and fell by 3% YoY, respectively, both better than expected. The 2H25 financial report was the company's first semi-annual report that recorded a YoY recovery in net profit since 2H22, though the guidance for 2026 would be crucial.

In terms of net profit margin expansion, CLSA doesn't expect LI NING's management to adopt a very aggressive strategy. The broker has kept its target price for LI NING at HKD18, with a rating of Hold.
