Stock Track | WEIGAO GROUP Plummets 17.03% Intraday on Disappointing H2 Results and VBP Margin Pressure

Stock Track03-30

WEIGAO GROUP's stock price experienced a significant intraday decline of 17.03% on Monday, reflecting a sharp negative market reaction to the company's latest financial performance.

The steep drop followed the release of the company's second-half 2025 results, which fell short of market expectations. Goldman Sachs noted that net profit declined by 37% year-on-year to 604 million yuan, missing forecasts, while the net profit margin of 9% was well below the expected 12.5%. The primary driver of this underperformance was identified as the ongoing impact of China's Volume-Based Procurement (VBP) policy, which led to greater-than-anticipated compression in profit margins.

In response to these results and the company's 2026 guidance, Goldman Sachs lowered its earnings per share forecasts for WEIGAO GROUP for 2026 through 2028 by 13% to 15% and reduced its target price from HK$6.9 to HK$6, while maintaining a "Buy" rating. The market's reaction suggests investors are concerned about the persistent pressure on profitability from the VBP environment.
