Summary · why it matters

PDD Holdings, which operates the Chinese discount e-commerce site Temu, announced on the 24th its results for the April-June quarter of 2026. Revenue rose 8 percent year on year to 112.358 billion yuan, while net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders fell 12 percent to 27.182 billion yuan, resulting in higher revenue but lower profit. Revenue came in below the average analyst estimate of 116.35 billion yuan compiled by LSEG, while adjusted earnings per American depositary share were 19.33 yuan, beating expectations. In China's e-commerce market, price competition involving Alibaba and JD.com has intensified, and tighter overseas regulations, including the end of the US de minimis tariff exemption for small packages and the introduction of fees by the European Union, also weighed on performance. Co-CEO Chen Lei said on an earnings call that competition in the Chinese market remains fierce and that the company is struggling to respond to diverse international regulations.
