We downgrade JDL to Neutral with a Jun-27 PT of HK$14 after 2Q26 results

that were solid on growth but underwhelming on margin quality and earnings

visibility. Revenue rose 24.3% Y/Y to Rmb64.1B, with non-IFRS profit up

2.2% Y/Y to Rmb2.64B, but margin diluted and below-the-line volatility

remains a concern. Management reiterated full-year revenue growth guidance

of 20-25% Y/Y and expects non-IFRS NP to grow at the low end of 25-30%

Y/Y, but flagged oil costs and weaker non-operating gains as real headwinds.

The briefing focused on continued ISC compounding, international expansion,

and AI/automation, but also acknowledged a tougher cost/mix backdrop. The

stock fell 13% post-results on 14 Aug, reflecting both sector de-risking and

JDL’s high beta to parentco sentiment. Despite the 13% slump (vs HSC -1%

and JD.com -10%), JDL has still outperformed YTD (+7% vs. HSC -9%). We

retain J&T and YMM as our top picks.

• 2Q26 results showed strong top-line growth but margin pressure and

cost volatility kept investors cautious. JDL delivered Rmb64.1B revenue

(+24.3% Y/Y) and Rmb2.43B non-IFRS operating profit (+11.6% Y/Y), but

non-IFRS profit margin fell 0.9ppts Y/Y to 4.1% and non-IFRS EBITDA

margin dropped 1.1ppts Y/Y to 10.0%. Cost of revenue rose 25.6% Y/Y,

reflecting both business mix and oil price impact. Management highlighted

healthy ISC and external customer momentum, but the market focused on

margin dilution and the lack of a clean inflection in earnings quality. We cut

our FY26-28 earnings forecasts by c6% and our Jun-27 PT is lowered to

HK$14, based on FY27E EPS of HK$1.62 and 8x P/E (prior: 9x).
