Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) has invested $71.4 million or 100 billion Korean won in the South Korean apparel brand Ably Corp.
What Happened: Ably is now South Korea&#8217;s first unicorn of 2024, with the deal valuing the company at over $1 billion, as per a <a href="https://www.kedglobal.com/e-commerce/newsView/ked202412020004">report</a> by The Korean Economic Daily.
Following the investment, Ably&#8217;s valuation has soared to around 3 trillion won (approx. $2.1 billion), a significant increase from its 900 billion won valuation during its 67 billion won pre-Series C fundraising round in January 2022.
Why It Matters: This deal marks the first equity investment by China-based Alibaba in any Korean shopping app.
Ably is the first Korean startup to reach a valuation of over $1 billion this year, following Naver Corp.&#8217;s Kream Corp., which achieved a 1 trillion won valuation in December 2023 after completing a bridge round financing.
As per its 13F filings for the third quarter, Alibaba holds stakes in XPeng Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>), Weibo Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WB#NASDAQ">WB</a>), Perfect Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PERF#NYSE">PERF</a>), and Best Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEST#NYSE">BEST</a>) in the U.S.
Alibaba increased its stake in XPeng by 371% in the September 2024 quarter compared to the June 2024 quarter. During the same period, it reduced its stake in Perfect by 2%, while its Weibo and Best stakes remained unchanged.

Price Action: Shares of Alibaba Group Holdings&#8217; ADR closed 0.90% higher at $87.37 per share on Friday as compared to a 0.31% advance in the NYSE Composite Index.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>, Alibaba has a consensus price target of $119.82 apiece based on the ratings of 23 analysts, but a consensus rating of &#8220;Buy.&#8221; The highest price target among all the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BABA/analyst-ratings">analysts tracked by Benzinga</a> is $155 per share issued by Deutsche Bank on Jan. 13, 2023, whereas the lowest price target is $85 apiece issued by Bernstein on Aug. 16.
The average price target of $122 per share between Barclays, Benchmark, and Mizuho implies a 39.64% upside for Alibaba.

Perfect Q3 Adj $0.03, Inline, Sales $16.13M Miss $16.79M Estimate

On Tuesday, Perfect Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PERF#NYSE">PERF</a>) announced third-quarter earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Total revenue was $16.1 million for the third quarter, marking an increase of 10.8% year-on-year, missing the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $16.8 million</a>. The increase was primarily due to growth in the revenue of AI- and AR-cloud solutions and mobile app subscriptions.

AI—and AR—cloud solutions and subscription revenue was $13.4 million, up 17.9% year over year. The double-digit growth was driven by robust demand from brand customers for the Company's online virtual product try-on solutions, healthy momentum in the growth of YouCam mobile beauty app subscriptions, and consumer preference for Generative AI technologies and AI editing features for photos and videos.
The Company's YouCam mobile beauty app active subscribers grew by 17.0% year over year, reaching a record high of over 977,000 active subscribers.
Licensing revenue was $2.4 million, a decrease of 14.5% Y/Y.
The Company anticipates that this legacy non-recurring revenue will diminish in significance as it continues to prioritize enhancing its market leadership in offering AI- and AR-based SaaS subscription solutions for brands and customers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Gross profit was $13.0 million, up by 9.6% Y/Y.&nbsp;The gross margin slightly decreased to 80.3%, from 81.2% Y/Y, primarily due to the rise in third-party payment processing fees paid to digital distribution partners such as Google and Apple, related to the growth in its mobile app subscription revenue.
Net income of $2.5 million declined from $3.5 million Y/Y. EPS stood at $0.03.
Adjusted net income was $3.2 million, an increase of 20.6% Y/Y. Adjusted EPS was $0.027, which marginally missed the analyst consensus estimate of $0.03.
Operating cash flow was $4.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 6.3% year over year.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As of September 30, 2024, the Company held $127.2 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company had 151 Key Customers as of September 30, 2024, steady Q/Q.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company's cumulative customer base included 708 brand clients, with over 806,000 digital stock-keeping units for makeup, haircare, skincare, eyewear, watches, and jewelry products, compared to 686 brand clients and over 774,000 digital SKUs as of June 30, 2024.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Business Outlook for 2024: Based on the growth momentum in enterprise SaaS solution demands and YouCam mobile app subscriptions, the Company anticipates a Y/Y <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">total revenue growth</a> rate of 12% %- 14% for 2024.
Price Action: PERF stock closed lower by 2.03% at $1.930 at Monday.
