Baozun (NASDAQ:BZUN – Get Free Report) issued its earnings results on Thursday. The technology company reported $0.05 earnings per share for the quarter, missing analysts’ consensus estimates of $1.68 by ($1.63), Zacks reports. Baozun had a positive return on equity of 1.68% and a negative net margin of 1.80%.
Here are the key takeaways from Baozun’s conference call:
- Q2 revenue rose 7% year over year to RMB 2.7 billion, while non-GAAP operating income increased 25% to RMB 74 million on a rebased basis, reflecting improved earnings quality.
- Brand management revenue grew 22%, supported by Gap’s double-digit same-store sales growth and gross-margin expansion to 56.1%. Baozun remains on track to open more than 50 stores in 2026 and expects full-year BBM revenue growth of 20%–25%.
- E-commerce revenue increased 5%, with service revenue up 10% and BEC non-GAAP operating income reaching RMB 107 million, its strongest second-quarter result since 2022. Cost controls, automation and planned AI deployment are expected to support further productivity and margin gains.
- Management raised its 2028 non-GAAP operating profit target from RMB 550 million to RMB 700 million, citing BBM’s momentum, AI-enabled efficiencies, synergies between segments and potential new brand-management opportunities.
- BEC product-sales revenue fell 10% as the company reduced exposure to highly competitive, lower-margin categories such as home goods, beauty and appliances. Management expects its apparel product-sales initiative to contribute meaningfully from 2027, but the near-term payoff will require continued investment.
