Kuaijishan Shaoxing Wine has reported 1Q26 revenue of RMB500mn(+3.94%YoY),an attributable NP of RMB120mn(+27.96%YoY),and an ex-nonrecurring net profit of RMB115mn(+24.08%YoY).The company maintained solid momentum during the quarter.In 2026,we think that the company is likely to continue focusing on its three core SKUs:1743,Drink Day,and Lanting,with the efficiency of its expense deployment to improve significantly.In addition,the company has apreferential 15%income tax rate for high-tech enterprises during 2025-2027.Its profitability is likely to continue improving.After long-term capacity rationalization,the competitive landscape of the huangjiu industry has become more favorable.Rising share for leaders creates favorable conditions for industry development.Maintain BUY.
Sustained strong momentum across the three core SKUs
On the product side,revenues from mid-range to high-end huangjiu,mass-market huangjiu,and other alcoholic beverages reached RMB366mn,RMB83mn,and RMB38mn for 1Q26(+8.84%YoY,-20.97%YoY,+73.33%YoY).We expect the core blockbuster SKUs 1743 and the Lanting series to maintain rapid growth,while Chunzheng Five-Year should stabilize the core base.Trendy sparkling huangjiu products such as Drink Day should continue their high-growth momentum.On the market side,revenues from Zhejiang,Jiangsu,Shanghai,and other regions reached RMB270mn,RMB30mn,RMB100mn,and RMB85mn for 1Q26(-5.61%YoY,-10.43%YoY,+31.40%YoY,+31.68%YoY).The company continued to deepen its base market centered on Shaoxing.It also prioritized expansion into markets around the Yangtze River Delta,such as Shandong and Anhui.Drink Day and Lanting are not constrained by regions and are building model markets in key cities nationwide.On the channel side,direct sales and wholesale revenue increased by 23.98%YoY and 0.60%YoY in 1Q26,respectively.Instant retail channels are also accelerating their rollout.
GPM further expanded,with tax incentives boosting earnings
For 1Q26,the gross margin rose by 0.90pp YoY to 61.6%,likely due to product-mix optimization during the quarter.The selling expense ratio rose by 0.94pp YoY to 23.05%,while the G&A expense ratio fell by 0.27pp YoY to 4.78%.Overall expense deployment remained stable.The tax and surcharge ratio fell by 0.44pp YoY to 3.25%in 1Q26.Due to income tax incentives,the company’s income tax rate was 16.0%for the quarter,versus 26.8%for the same period of last year.As aresult,the attributable net margin rose by 4.50pp YoY to 23.98%.In addition,sales cash collection reached RMB550mn for 1Q26(+4.13%YoY),and the net operating cash flow reached RMB107mn(+36.59%YoY).At end-1Q26,contract liabilities were RMB116mn,up by RMB17mn YoY and RMB5mn QoQ.Cash flow delivered steady performance.
Premiumization amplified by tax tailwinds;maintain BUY
With the competitive landscape improving,premiumization progressing smoothly,and new product deployment on track,we expect the strong business momentum to be maintained.Market-based incentives for the team are in place,and expansion outside the company’s home province is progressing steadily.This should continue to unlock growth potential.We maintain our earnings estimates and expect 2026/2027/2028 EPS of RMB0.62/RMB0.74/RMB0.90.Based on its comparable companies’average 2026E PE of 34x on Wind consensus,we maintain our valuation of 34x 2026E PE for the company and keep our target price unchanged at RMB21.08.Maintain BUY.
Risks:Intensifying industry competition,weaker consumer demand than we expect,and food-safety issues.
