On August 20, ZTO EXPRESS-W fell 4.32% in regular trading, trading at HKD 167.2/share, with turnover of HKD 110 million. The decline came one day after the company released its interim results, which beat expectations but triggered profit-taking on multiple concerns.
On August 19, ZTO EXPRESS-W reported Q2 revenue of RMB 14.55 billion, up 23% year-over-year, with net profit attributable to shareholders surging 57.4% to RMB 3.051 billion. Adjusted net profit rose 50.3% to RMB 3.086 billion. For the first half, revenue reached RMB 27.832 billion (+22.5% YoY), with attributable net profit of RMB 5.169 billion (+31.5% YoY). Despite the strong results, the company announced it would not declare an interim dividend, likely triggering profit-taking among shareholders.
Additionally, Q2 parcel volume growth of 6.5% landed at the lower end of the company's full-year 6%-10% guidance, while operating expenses jumped 58.7% year-over-year, raising market concerns about cost-side pressure. The stock currently trades at approximately 11.4x PE, with institutional consensus target price at HKD 240.96, suggesting a short-term divergence between fundamentals and share price.
