• Brand management revenue grew 22%, supported by Gap’s double-digit same-store sales growth and gross-margin expansion to 56.1%. Baozun remains on track to open more than 50 stores in 2026 and expects full-year BBM revenue growth of 20%–25%.
• E-commerce revenue increased 5%, with service revenue up 10% and BEC non-GAAP operating income reaching RMB 107 million, its strongest second-quarter result since 2022. Cost controls, automation and planned AI deployment are expected to support further productivity and margin gains.
• Management raised its 2028 non-GAAP operating profit target from RMB 550 million to RMB 700 million, citing BBM’s momentum, AI-enabled efficiencies, synergies between segments and potential new brand-management opportunities.
• BEC product-sales revenue fell 10% as the company reduced exposure to highly competitive, lower-margin categories such as home goods, beauty and appliances. Management expects its apparel product-sales initiative to contribute meaningfully from 2027, but the near-term payoff will require continued investment.
