0211 GMT - Pop Mart's valuation looks undemanding after the share-price correction, Citi analysts say in a research note. Pop Mart's shares plunged 22.5% on Wednesday after its 2025 results and are last down 8.3% at HK$154.20 on Thursday morning. The Labubu maker's 2025 results came in below the bank's expectation, given more-than-expected deceleration in Americas in 4Q. Management's guidance of no less-than 20% growth in 2026 is below Citi's expectation, but "may to some extent alleviate market concerns over growth sustainability." Citi maintains a buy call on Pop Mart but cuts its target price to HK$350.00 from HK$415.00. However, Citi sees upside from emerging IPs and monetization opportunities for Labubu in a wide range of fields in 2026. (sherry.qin@wsj.com)
