On August 6, CHINA RES BEER fell 3.09% in regular trading, trading at 21.92 HKD/share, with turnover of HKD 143 million. The decline comes as the company approaches its interim results release amid downgraded earnings expectations.

On the news front, Goldman Sachs projected the company's H1 net profit to decline 9% year-on-year to RMB 5.29 billion, with the baijiu (Chinese spirits) business weighed down by weak consumer sentiment and ongoing industry destocking. The bank lowered its target price from HKD 36.45 to HKD 35.15 and cut earnings forecasts for the next three years by 3.2% to 4%, while maintaining a Buy rating. The company has announced a board meeting scheduled for August 19 to review interim results and a dividend proposal.

Within the Brewers sector, the overall tone was soft. Among individual stocks, TSINGTAO BREW down 0.85%, BUD APAC down 1.0%, CHINARES BEER-R down 2.73%, SAN MIGUEL HK flat at 0%.
