Alibaba Earnings: More Positive Outlook Despite Mixed Results; Raising Fair Value Estimate by 2%

Chelsey Tam

Alibaba Group’s March-quarter revenue beat our estimate by 1% but missed our adjusted EBITA by 2%. We find management’s fiscal 2025 (ending March) outlook on gross merchandise volume, or GMV, growth, take rate (customer management revenue/GMV), and cloud revenue encouraging. We think the 6% share price correction during US trading hours after the results was due to the 5% year-on-year decline in adjusted EBITA amid higher investments. That said, we expect these investments to bring positive returns to Alibaba in the longer term.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Alibaba is able to maintain or increase its gross merchandise volume share in China's e-commerce space, demonstrating its ability to execute its turnaround strategy.

Bears

Alibaba's gross merchandise volume share in China decreases faster than our expectation as competitors such as Douyin successfully enter the search-based e-commerce business.
