Summary of Key Points from Conference Call Records Industry Overview - **Snack Retail Industry**: The snack retail sector showed strong performance in Q1, but single-store revenue declined due to the Spring Festival.

Future single-store revenue is expected to remain stable, with room for operational improvements such as SKU replacement and display optimization [1][3]. - **Frozen Food Sector**: Demand in the restaurant segment has not significantly improved, with market concerns arising from the alcohol ban.

Companies like Lihai Foods reported double-digit growth in order shipments in April and May, primarily from new customers in the Sam's Club and restaurant channels [1][6]. - **Ready-to-Drink Beverage Sector**: The fundamentals are strong, with companies like Guming, Chabaidao, and Mixue Ice City reporting double-digit same-store sales growth.

Overall revenue is expected to slightly decrease in the first half of the year, but profit growth will significantly outpace revenue growth due to raw material price declines and efficiency improvements [1][15]. - **Yanjing Beer**: The company continued to show good growth from January to May, with U8 maintaining rapid growth and accounting for over 23% of total sales. The company is focusing on product upgrades and cost savings, which are expected to enhance profit margins [1][27][28]. - **Wan Zhou International**: The core business is expected to grow year-on-year in Q2, benefiting from favorable US pork prices and high profit margins in the meat products segment.
