Luckin Coffee Q2 Profit Up 16.1% Despite Same-Store Sales Slump
LKNCY sits 33% above its 52-week low of $27.22 on elevated volume (4.3× avg).
Summary
Luckin Coffee delivered a mixed Q2: net revenue jumped 28.5% to RMB 15.9 billion, but same-store sales at self-operated stores fell 5.3%, accelerating from a 0.1% dip in Q1. Net profit rose 16.1% to RMB 1.49 billion, aided by a sharp drop in delivery expenses to 10% of revenue. The company added over 10,000 stores year-over-year, reaching 36,310 globally, and monthly transacting customers hit a record 113 million. Management attributed the same-store weakness to a faster-than-expected pullback in delivery-platform subsidies. The earlier 6-K filing on August 3 had flagged the top-line growth and customer records; today's report fills in the profit, margin, and same-store sales details, painting a fuller picture of margin resilience offsetting traffic headwinds.
At the time of this announcement, LKNCY was trading at $36.16 on OTC in the Trade & Services sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $10.6B.
