Core Viewpoint - Anta Sports has shown strong revenue growth in its latest financial report, but concerns about future growth potential for its core brands, Anta and FILA, have led to a decline in stock prices despite positive earnings [4][5][6]. Financial Performance - In the first half of 2025, Anta Group achieved revenue of 38.54 billion RMB, a year-on-year increase of 14.3%, with a net profit of 7.03 billion RMB, up 14.5% [4][9]. - Anta's main brand revenue grew by 5.4% to 16.95 billion RMB, while FILA's revenue increased by 8.6% to 14.18 billion RMB, both reaching historical highs [4][9]. - The overall revenue from other brands surged by 61.1% to 7.41 billion RMB [4][9]. Market Reaction - Following the financial report, Anta's stock price fell by 8.27% within four days, indicating market skepticism regarding the sustainability of growth for its core brands [5][6]. Gross Margin and Online Sales - Anta Group's gross margin decreased by 0.7 percentage points to 63.4%, attributed to changes in online discount strategies and an increase in online sales proportion, which rose by 2.4 percentage points to 36.2% [7][9]. Competitive Landscape - The decline in gross margins is not unique to Anta; other domestic sports brands like Li Ning and Xtep have also reported similar trends due to increased discounting and competitive pressures [11][13]. - Nike and Adidas are undergoing strategic adjustments in the Chinese market, with Nike reporting a significant drop in profits in the Greater China region [14][15]. Brand Strategy - Anta is focusing on diversifying its retail strategy by segmenting its store network and introducing a new store format called "Super Anta," aimed at providing a wide range of products at competitive prices [25][26]. - FILA is also experiencing a recovery, with its first financial report under new management showing positive growth, although its gross margin declined by 2.2 percentage points due to increased costs [28][29]. Future Outlook - Anta's management acknowledges that the growth of its main brand has not met initial high single-digit growth targets, primarily due to underperformance from franchise partners and insufficient online sales during key promotional periods [21][22]. - The company is exploring new market opportunities, including expansion into Southeast Asia, although specific revenue contributions from overseas markets have not been disclosed [19][20].
