Yum China 3Q Mostly in Line; Remains a Buy for HSBC -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Nov 05

0739 GMT - Yum China's 3Q results were mostly in line with expectations and outperformed the industry, say HSBC analysts Lina Yan and Yimin Wang say in a note. Management reaffirmed its 2025 earnings guidance, anticipating 4Q growth to mirror 3Q levels. The analysts forecast 2025 net profit to be 2% below market consensus but keep their revenue projections unchanged. They also maintain their 2025-2027 operating profit estimates but trim earnings forecasts by 2%-3% citing lower interest income and higher taxes. HSBC reiterates its buy rating on its stock, raising target prices for ADRs to $67.40 from $66.90 and H-shares to HK$525.70 from HK$521.80. ADRs last closed at $44.82 and H-shares last at HK$341.40.
