Recovery of Debon’s business from negative to positive growth. 2. Kuayue Express maintaining a growth rate of around 25%. 3. JD Logistics' own business, which has reached a growth rate of approximately 25% since increasing investments in takeaway and overseas operations [2]. - **Profit Expectations**: The profit for JD Logistics is expected to exceed 8.5 billion yuan in 2026, with profit margins anticipated to recover due to the acceleration of the dual-network integration project and stable profit margins from Kuayue Express [3]. - **Valuation**: The current price-to-earnings (PE) ratio is below 10, significantly lower than peers like SF Express and ZTO Express, which have PE ratios around 12 to 13.

This price adjustment is expected to cover over 20% of the total parcel volume [7]. - **Impact on Major Players**: The price increases are anticipated to enhance profitability for leading express companies, with expected annual performance growth of 30% to 50% in 2026.
