Meituan posts another quarterly loss as food delivery wars bite

Chinese food delivery leader Meituan (3690) posted a second quarterly loss in a row and fell just shy of revenue growth estimates on Thursday after a year of bruising, subsidy-fuelled competition in China's one-hour delivery space.

Meituan's revenue for the quarter ended December 31 reached 92.1 billion yuan, a 4.1 percent rise from a year ago, compared with 92.2 billion yuan expected by analysts.

Its adjusted net loss narrowed to 15.1 billion yuan from 16 billion yuan in the third quarter.

A year earlier, Meituan posted a profit of 9.8 billion yuan.

<Research> CICC Maintains Meituan (03690.HK) Rating as 'Outperform'; Expects Marginal Competition Easing and Potential Loss Narrowing This Year

A research report by CICC indicates that Meituan (03690.HK) recorded a 4% year-on-year increase in revenue to RMB92.1 billion in the fourth quarter of last year.

Due to increased user subsidies and advertising expenses amid competition, as well as higher overseas investments, the adjusted net loss reached RMB15.1 billion.

Given the recent marginal easing of competition, CICC revised its earnings forecast for this year from a loss of RMB9.7 billion to a loss of RMB8.5 billion.

However, considering subsequent uncertainties, it lowered the 2027 earnings forecast by 8.2% to RMB27.5 billion.

Due to the company's operational efficiency advantages, CICC maintains its 'Outperform' rating for Meituan with a target price of HKD125, corresponding to a 24.6x adjusted P/E ratio and a 44% upside potential.
