On June 3, Yum China fell 3.02% in regular trading, trading at HK$334.2/share, with trading volume of HK$51.20 million.

On the news front, Yum China was reportedly excluded from Jardine Matheson Group's second-round buyer shortlist, causing market expectations for external M&A expansion to fall through. The negative sentiment has continued to weigh on the stock since the news initially surfaced. Despite the company maintaining a dual-market daily buyback program of approximately US$3 million and HK$7.74 million with share cancellations, the repurchases have failed to effectively offset selling pressure in the short term. Over the past month, Yum China has underperformed the Hang Seng Index by 9.1%, reflecting notable capital outflow pressure.

Within the Restaurants sector, the broader industry declined in tandem. Among individual stocks, MEITUAN-W down 6.14%, MIXUE GROUP down 5.89%, GUMING down 2.67%, HAIDILAO down 2.31%, CHABAIDAO down 1.87%.
