Dow Jones04-23 16:33

0833 GMT - iQiyi may face some challenges in the near term, with competition likely remaining an overhang for the video-steaming company, HSBC analysts say in a research note.they note. HSBC cuts its 2026-2028 revenue estimates by around 3-4% and earnings forecasts by 19%-69%, partially due to lower content distribution revenue. AI could accelerate iQiyi's content development and lower content costs, the analysts point out, citing management's remarks. However, such transformation will take time, they add. HSBC maintains a hold rating but cuts the target price to $1.50 from $1.90. The ADRs last traded at $1.25. (tracy.qu@wsj.com)
