Details and Outlook
China Youran Dairy Group Limited has issued a positive profit alert for the first half of 2026. The Group’s performance marks a significant turnaround, with anticipated profits between RMB 739 million and RMB 903 million, compared to a loss of RMB 297 million in the first half of 2025. The improvement is driven by several factors:
- Reduction in Losses from Biological Asset Valuation: The decrease in revaluation losses is linked to a stabilization and partial recovery in raw milk prices, sustained higher prices for culled cows, and internal initiatives to cut costs and boost operational efficiency, such as increasing milk yield per cow and further reducing feed costs.
- Core Business Performance: The raw milk segment saw both sales volume and gross profit growth, supported by improved farming efficiency and lower feed costs. The Group’s comprehensive ruminant farming solutions also contributed to gross profit through product innovation and optimizing the business structure.
