Analysis · YJ · Trade & Services
The first half of 2026 brought a sharp 39.2% revenue decline for Yunji, down to RMB96.3 million, as soft consumer spending and a strategic pivot away from third-party merchants toward private label products took their toll. Yet the bottom line improved, with net loss narrowing to RMB72.4 million from RMB100.7 million a year earlier, thanks to aggressive cost cutting across all expense categories. Liquidity remains a bright spot at RMB242.1 million, though short-term borrowings tripled to RMB121.45 million, signaling a heavier reliance on debt. A RMB19.2 million impairment charge on property and equipment points to potential overinvestment in the new headquarters project. Overall, the results paint a picture of a company in transition, sacrificing near-term revenue for a higher-margin private label strategy while carefully managing cash burn.
