BofAS Raises BABA-W TP to HKD175; Earnings Improve but Sentiment Yet to Recover
2026-10-12 11:54:12
The preview of BABA-W (09988.HK)'s results for 2FQ ended late Sep 2026 reflected improving earnings, although market sentiment has yet to recover, BofA Securities said in a research report.

The broker raised its earnings forecasts for Alibaba by 3-9%, lifted the Hong Kong stock TP to HKD175, and increased the US stock TP for Alibaba (BABA.US) to USD178. It reiterated a Buy rating, believing that the current share price level has yet to fully reflect the earnings inflection point.

The broker forecast Alibaba's cloud revenue for 2FQ to grow 52% YoY, with margins expected to expand. It estimated that the combined cloud and AI businesses could turn breakeven in 2HFY27 ending late March. CMR was estimated to fall 5% YoY, while adjusted EBITA of China's e-commerce excluding quick commerce was expected to remain broadly flat. Losses from quick commerce were also predicted to keep narrowing as anticipated.
