Per management who attended Citi’s Consumer Corp Day, group top-line Price (18 Jun 26 16:10) HK$15.57

expanded by HSD YoY in 5M26, above 2026E full-year guidance for MSD Target price HK$22.70

of sales growth YoY (see March 26 note: Mengniu – Analyst Briefing

Expected share price return 45.8% Takeaways: Positive 26E Outlook). Mengniu’s 5M26 top-line growth is

one of the strongest among big-cap China consumer staple companies, in Expected dividend yield 2.6%

our view. We expect its OPM to be stable YoY in 2026E, if not slightly Expected total return 48.4%

better. We anticipate core NP (ex-impairment loss) growth to be stronger Market Cap HK$60,357M

than EBIT growth in 2026E, given substantial YoY reduction of “other US$7,702M

expenses” (especially bulk whole-milk powder inventory write-down loss)

and associate losses (especially at China Modern Dairy). Mengniu was the

most discussed China consumer stock in our recent marketing in

UK/Europe (see our June 16 note: China Consumer – UK/Europe Xiaopo Wei, CFAAC

marketing feedback; Most discussed China consumer stocks). +852-2501-2472
