Guinness China Sharukh Malik, Edmund Harriss | “China Tourism Group Duty Free (-41.5%) is China's leading duty-free retailer. The shares fell as the recovery in Hainan duty-free spending slowed sharply during the second quarter, raising concerns that the strong growth seen around the Chinese New Year was not sustainable. Official data showed Hainan duty-free sales growth slowing from 26% in the first quarter to 19% for the first half of the year, indicating a marked deceleration during the second quarter. The business is also seeing a growing contribution from lower-margin categories such as gold jewellery and consumer electronics. This led investors to question whether earnings growth driven by margin improvement and cost control could continue without a stronger recovery in revenue. The acquisition of DFS's Greater China retail business was completed in March, broadening the company's operations in Hong Kong and Macau, but it was not enough to offset these near-term concerns.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Jul 22, 2026 | View Pitch |
