JD.com Q2 Profit Jumps 20% as Margins Hit Record, Buyback Tops $1B
JD sits 28% above its 52-week low of $24.508.
Summary
JD.com's Q2 2026 results show a sharp profit inflection despite a 2.9% revenue decline to RMB346.4B. Income from operations swung to RMB4.5B from a loss of RMB0.9B a year ago, and non-GAAP net income rose 20% to RMB8.9B. JD Retail's operating margin hit a record 4.6% for a peak promotional quarter, driven by high-margin marketplace revenue. The company also repurchased US$1.0B of shares in H1, reducing outstanding shares by 2.5%. This follows the EU's formal charges over the Ceconomy deal and a weak 618 festival, making the margin expansion a key positive signal for profitability.
