On July 31, CHINA RES BEER fell 3.02% in regular trading, trading at HKD 23.58/share, with turnover of HKD 45.78 million. The decline came as the broader beer sector sold off collectively amid concerns over mid-year earnings pressure.

On the news front, Goldman Sachs on July 28 lowered its target price for the company to HKD 35.15, forecasting first-half net profit to decline approximately 9% year-over-year to RMB 5.29 billion. The baijiu business is expected to see sales drop 10% YoY due to weak consumer sentiment and ongoing industry destocking, dragging overall profitability. Meanwhile, a former vice president of the parent CR Group was recently expelled from the party and dismissed, creating short-term sentiment headwinds for CR-linked stocks.
