The e-commerce services and brand management company's revenue rose 7.7% in the fourth quarter, as it announced plans to open a net 40 new Gap clothing stores in China this year
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaways:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Baozun reported its first net profit in more than three years in last year's fourth quarter, as its brand management and e-commerce services business posted strong growth</li>
<li>The company had 152 Gap stores across China at the end of last year, and plans to open another 40 net new stores in 2025</li>
</ul>
The latest&nbsp;<a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/baozun-announces-fourth-quarter-and-fiscal-year-2024-unaudited-financial-results-302406876.html">quarterly report</a>&nbsp;from&nbsp;Baozun Inc.&nbsp;(BZUN.US; 9991.HK) had something for everyone. Its topline revenue continued to grow at a respectable rate, and its network of China-based Gap clothing stores posted same-store sales growth – a rare feat in the current environment of weak consumer sentiment. On the bottom line, the company also reported its first quarterly profit in more than three years and promised 2025 would be "transformative."
But investors weren't buying into any of that. The stock fell 12.7% on Thursday after the latest earnings announcement, throwing a damper on what otherwise looked like a very respectable report. Even after the selloff the stock is still up 15% over the last six months, which seems to show the investment community is becoming more confident in the company.
Reflecting that, five of seven analysts polled by Yahoo Finance rate Baozun a "buy," while the other two rate it a "hold." But investors don't think nearly as highly of the company, giving it a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of just 0.17. By comparison,&nbsp;The Gap Inc.&nbsp;(GAP.US) trades at 0.52, and rival retailer&nbsp;Giordano&nbsp;(0709.HK) trades at 0.63. The discrepancies get even worse when we compare Baozun to other e-commerce services providers, which is Baozun's other main business. Domestic rival&nbsp;Weimob&nbsp;(2013.HK) trades at a P/S ratio of 3.12, while U.S. giant&nbsp;Salesforce&nbsp;(CMS.US) trades at 7.18.
To better understand why investors are so down on Baozun, we need to trace the company's history. It began as a provider of software services to e-commerce merchants, and was closely tied to Alibaba's (BABA.US; 9988.HK) ecosystem. To this day, Alibaba remains one of its major shareholders. But that business has largely stagnated in recent years.
More recently, the company made headlines in 2023 when it purchased Gap's China operations, launching Baozun's move into brand management. Not long afterwards, it also formed a joint venture with&nbsp;Authentic Brands Group&nbsp;to bring the U.S. brand owner's Hunter brand to Asia.
The move into brand management initially raised a lot of eyebrows due to its relative distance from Baozun's core service of providing e-commerce services. That brand management business also created a drag on Baozun's overall performance initially, as the company closed many Gap stores and tried to reposition the brand to make it more competitive. Those efforts appear to be finally yielding some results, and the brand management business now accounts for about a fifth of Baozun's revenue.
The company's total revenue rose 7.7% year-on-year in the fourth quarter to 3 billion yuan ($414 million) from 2.78 billion yuan, as it reported a second consecutive year of annual revenue growth for all 2024 after the figure contracted in 2021 and 2022. Fulfillment costs were flat year-on-year, while sales and marketing costs rose 17%.
As those two factors offset each other, the company reported a 100,000 yuan profit for the quarter, marking its first net profit since the second quarter of 2021. Chairman Vincent Qiu indicated the momentum is continuing in 2025, as analysts forecast the company will report an annual profit this year – its first since 2020.
"The year 2025 marks a combination of our strategic transformation and sets the stage for future growth," Qiu said on the company's earnings call. "We have strengthened our senior management team to drive this next phase."
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Gap expansion</h4>
Next, we'll take a closer look at the company's two main businesses, starting with its newer brand management business that is entering a growth mode after an initial period of retrenchment. The Gap-brand stores still make up the bulk of that business, though Baozun said it recently opened its first Hunter outlets in Shanghai and Malaysia.
Product sales for its brand management business, mostly from Gap stores, rose 17.3% in the fourth quarter year-on-year to 535 million yuan from 456 million yuan a year earlier.
The company said it opened 40 new Gap stores in the second half of last year, including 16 in the fourth quarter, bringing its total to 152 Gap stores across China by the end of 2024. It said it plans to open another 50 Gap stores this year, which, when combined with closure of underperforming outlets, would give it 40 net new stores for the year.
Notably, the company said its Gap stores reported "low single digit same-store sales growth" in the fourth quarter, which looks quite promising in the current economic climate where many retailers are reporting declines. In one other noteworthy development, the company said it is working with franchisees to expand the chain into second-tier cities – a strategy increasingly used by many brands for expansion into China's smaller cities.
"While we opened new stores throughout the year, we also strategically closed underperforming locations to optimize our offline network, making 2024 a year of structural upgrades," said Ken Huang, CFO of Baozun Brand Management, on the earnings call. "Looking ahead, we plan to accelerate our expansion by prioritizing high traffic locations that maximize sales potential."
Huang added that following the recent openings of a Hunter store in Shanghai, the company is looking to expand that brand into other Chinese markets, such as Beijing, Shenzhen and Hangzhou.
On the e-commerce side, the company said its services revenue rose 9.3% year-on-year to 1.89 billion yuan in the fourth quarter from 1.73 billion a year earlier, fueled by double-digit gains for its online store operations and marketing services. But that was partly offset by a 4.3% decline for its e-commerce product sales to 572 million yuan from 598 million yuan a year earlier, as weak consumer sentiment hit that part of the business.
The positive performance by the brand management business, combined with strong results from e-commerce services offset the weakness in e-commerce sales, lifting Baozun's operating income to 73.2 million yuan from 6.4 million yuan a year earlier. And as we've already noted, the company also returned to a profit after more than three years of losses.
So, why the stock selloff? The one slightly worrisome sign was a drop in the gross margin for Baozun's brand management business, which fell to 50.4% in the fourth quarter from 52.9% a year earlier, with the company blaming store discounts offered as part of promotions. But such a small decline in one part of its business doesn't seem to justify the big stock selloff. Accordingly, the shares could have some potential upside if 2025 turns out to be as transformational as the company hopes.

CLSA analyst Leo You downgrades Baozun (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BZUN#NASDAQ">BZUN</a>) from Outperform to Hold and lowers the price target from $2.8 to $2.2.

CLSA Downgrades Baozun to Hold, Lowers Price Target to $2.2

Baozun Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:&nbsp;BZUN) reported a fiscal second-quarter 2024 revenue growth of 3.1% year-on-year to 2.39 billion Chinese yuan ($329.0 million), beating the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/08/n40596271/baozun-announces-second-quarter-2024-unaudited-financial-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst&nbsp;consensus estimate of $325.0 million</a>.
The brand e-commerce solution provider&#8217;s adjusted loss per ADS was $0.01, compared to the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus earnings estimate of $0.06</a>.
The increase in total net revenues was mainly due to a 9.4% growth in service revenue. The stock price gained after the results.
By the end of the quarter, approximately 45.8% of the BEC segment&#8217;s brand partners engaged with it for store operations in at least two channels.
Segments: Product sales revenue decreased by 6.4% Y/Y to $119.8 million.&nbsp;Services revenue increased 9.4% Y/Y to $209.3 million.
The adjusted operating margin was 0.40% versus&nbsp;0.03% a year ago.&nbsp;The company held $392.6 million in cash and equivalents as of June-end.
Chair and CEO Vincent Qiu: &#8220;I&#8217;m pleased that in the second quarter, E-Commerce revenue returned to growth after ten quarters of contraction, highlighting our effective revitalization efforts in both services and product sales&#8230; Brand Management continued to reduce its operating losses and accelerated its store expansion plans. We have also been working more closely with Gap Inc to maximize its global assets in the Chinese market.&#8221; 
Baozun&nbsp;stock plunged over 45% in the last 12 months as the company battled a weak domestic economy and cutthroat e-commerce competition.
Price Action:&nbsp;BZUN stock traded higher by 4.39% at $2.38 premarket at&nbsp;the last check Wednesday.

<h4>Key Takeaways:</h4>
<ul>
<li>EDA&rsquo;s revenue rose 71% last year on strong demand for its logistics services for Chinese cross-border e-commerce merchants</li>
<li>The company&rsquo;s &ldquo;pre-sale stocking model&rdquo; could give it an advantage as the direct-shipping model used by rivals Temu and Shein comes under fire in the U.S.</li>
</ul>
By Doug Young
Temu and Shein may be getting all the attention these days, with their rock-bottom prices for trendy clothing and other e-commerce knickknacks that are mailed directly from factories in China to Western consumers. But newly listed&nbsp;EDA Holdings Ltd.&nbsp;is offering a compelling alternative for cross-border e-commerce, especially as Temu and Shein come under fire from U.S. politicians.
EDA shares made their Hong Kong trading debut last week, jumping more than 80% on their first day as it raised a relatively modest HK$223 million ($28.5 million)&nbsp;<a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2024/0527/2024052701491.pdf">by selling</a>&nbsp;97.6 million shares for HK$2.28 apiece. The share price has retreated since those first-day gains, but was still 51% ahead of their IPO price at their latest close of HK$3.44 last Friday.
EDA operates a suite of cloud-based services providing logistics to cross-border Chinese e-commerce merchants selling to the U.S., Europe and Australia. Such services run the range from first-mile international freight services inside China, to last-mile fulfillment services in destination countries for products sold via e-commerce.
At their latest level, the company, commands a respectable &ndash; but not overly exciting &ndash; price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 20, with a similarly respectable but not eye-popping price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 1.16. The P/S trails the 1.65 for&nbsp;Weimob&nbsp;(2013.HK) but is well ahead of the 0.13 for&nbsp;Baozun(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bzun#NASDAQ">BZUN</a>), both providers of services for domestic Chinese e-commerce merchants. U.S. giants&nbsp;Shopify&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/shop#NYSE">SHOP</a>) and&nbsp;Salesforce&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/crm#NYSE">CRM</a>) both trade much higher with P/S ratios of 10 and 6.5, respectively.
EDA&rsquo;s lower multiples compared with the global giants probably owe at least partly to its relatively small size. Even after the big post-IPO gains, the company&rsquo;s market cap still stands at a relatively modest HK$1.5 billion, or just under $200 million. According to&nbsp;<a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2024/0528/2024050602410.htm">its prospectus</a>, first filed in February, the company isn&rsquo;t exactly at the head of its class, ranked as the seventh-largest provider of export e-commerce supply chain solutions based on 2022 revenue.
The business of selling Chinese goods overseas via e-commerce has been growing rapidly in recent years, as Beijing encourages its manufacturers to sell their wares directly to consumers abroad. The B2C market for such e-commerce exports grew 28.4% annually in terms of gross merchandise value (GMV) between 2017 and 2022 to reach 3.22 trillion yuan ($445 billion) in 2022, according to third-party data in the prospectus. That growth is expected to slow somewhat to 13.4% annually over the next few years, reaching 6 trillion yuan by 2027.
The rapid explosion has led to a concurrent boom in demand for related services like EDA&rsquo;s. The B2C export e-commerce supply chain solutions market grew 28.8% annually between 2017 and 2022, reaching 402 billion yuan in 2022. EDA said that rapid growth was partly due to the pandemic, as people turned to online buying as many shops closed. It added the growth is expected to slow to about 9.1% annually from 2022 to 2027.
<h4>Pre-sale stocking model</h4>
Founded in 2014 in the Southern boomtown of Shenzhen, EDA spent most of its life as an independent company controlled by founder Liu Yong before being taken over by the larger&nbsp;China Lesso Group Holdings Ltd.&nbsp;(2128.HK) in 2021. Lesso, which provides logistics services for goods being shipped from China to Southeast Asia, decided to spin off EDA to give it more flexibility to conduct its own business, including its own fundraising.
EDA differs from big names like Temu and Shein in its use of a business model that stocks its customers&rsquo; goods in locally based warehouses in the countries where those goods will ultimately be sold. Such a &ldquo;pre-sale stocking model&rdquo; allows for quick deliveries once an order is placed. To facilitate that model, EDA works with 40 local warehouse operators in the U.S., six in Canada and another seven combined in Germany, Britian and Australia.
By comparison, companies like Temu and Shein use a system of directly shipping products from China to the countries where buyers are located. Such a system carries less risk of accumulating unsold inventory, but takes far more time for deliveries to reach their destination, and is also less practical for returned items.
More recently, the direct shipment model has also faced a new type of risk, as the U.S. explores closing a loophole that allows Shein and Temu to sell their cross-border e-commerce goods in the U.S. without paying any import tariffs. The closing of that loophole would instantly make those products much more expensive, eliminating one of the key advantages they enjoy. Such a move would work to the advantage of EDA and others who use the pre-sale stocking model, since all of their goods already pay import tariffs.
In terms of financials, EDA&rsquo;s growth looks quite strong in the last two years, which partly explains why its latest P/E and P/S look relatively low. The company&rsquo;s revenue jumped 71% last year to 1.21 billion yuan from 709 million yuan, though the growth rate was quite a bit slower at 21% the previous year.
Unlike many newly listed companies we write about that rely on a handful of customers, EDA also looks relatively attractive for its high degree of diversification. Of the company&rsquo;s 850 customers over the last three years, the top five accounted for just a third of its revenue. Its top customer each year accounted for about 12% of revenue.
The company&rsquo;s gross margin has stood between 15% and 16% over the last three years, which looks comparable to what you&rsquo;d expect from a logistics operator, even though EDA likes to point out it uses an &ldquo;asset-light&rdquo; model that relies on third parties to supply most of its logistics. The company is relatively profitable, posting a profit of 69.4 million yuan last year, and doesn&rsquo;t appear to have any cash problems, with positive cash flow in each of the last three years.
At the end of the day, the company looks fairly solid in terms of its market position and focus on a few key markets. It could also benefit as Temu, Shein and other companies using the direct shipment model come under fire. Its smaller size could be a drawback for investors, though some may argue it might deserve a higher valuation due to its solid growth potential.
