Pop Mart shares up after near-400pc profit surge in H1
Pop Mart shares up after near-400pc profit surge in H1 Pop Mart chief executive Wang Ning told analysts that the company could 'easily' surpass its annual revenue target of 20 billion yuan for this year. Photo: RTHK Shares of Chinese toymaker Pop Mart on Wednesday reversed course and rose 12.5 percent, the most in almost four months, after the company posted a nearly 400 percent surge in net profit in the first half of the year, compared to the same period last year. The increase also came as the company's chief executive, Wang Ning, said at an earnings conference that the firm, which is the maker of Labubu dolls, is well positioned to hit its annual target revenue of 20 billion yuan for this year, adding that "reaching 30 billion yuan should be quite easy". The firm's rise came amid a global collection frenzy over its ulgy-cute Labubu toys, a sharp-toothed, big-eared doll under "The Monsters" series of toys designed by Hong Kong-born artist Lung Kasing, which became a global pop culture and intellectual property phenomenon. Demand for such toys surged notably in overseas markets with higher-margins, with its keychains spotted on bags of various celebrities including Rihanna, and Lisa from K-pop band Blackpink. Speaking to analysts, Wang also announced plans for the firm to launch a new mini version of the Labubu toy that can be attached to phones. The Beijing-headquartered company said on Tuesday that its revenue jumped 204.4 percent year on year to 13.88 billion yuan for the first six months of 2025, while net profit soared 396.5 percent to 4.57 billion yuan during the period. "The Monsters" toy series raked in 4.81 billion yuan in the first half, accounting for 34.7 percent of the total revenue, while other toy series, including "Molly" and "Crybaby", earned over one billion yuan during the period. The company is now pushing ahead with its global expansion plan by leveraging the global craze of Labubus, as overseas revenue jumped 440 percent to 5.6 billion yuan between January and June. While online and in-store revenue in the Asia-Pacific region accounted for the most of its overseas market sales, rising 258 percent to 2.85 billion yuan, North and South America made up its second largest overseas market, with revenue rocketing tenfold to 2.3 billion yuan. Sales in Europe, meanwhile, surged sevenfold. Looking ahead, Moon Duk II, the group's co-chief operating officer, said he expects total foreign store numbers to surpass 200 by the end of the year, up from the current 140. He noted that Pop Mart will open its first store in Doha, Qatar in the second half of the year as it explores emerging markets in Central Asia, Central and South America. It will also establish flagship stores and travel retail shops in Paris, Sydney, Milan and New York in the coming months, he added.

‘Top-notch' beef noodles, dim sum: Hong Kong restaurant picks of Canadian photographer
Photographer and cinematographer Guy Bertrand has co-directed a new documentary, Cha Guo, about a New Territories village called Kwu Tung that is in danger of disappearing due to redevelopment. He spoke to Andrew Sun. Advertisement I grew up in Montreal, Canada, so classic Québécois dishes were always on the table – things like pea soup, tourtière, which is a delicious seasoned ground beef pie, and pâté chinois, a cousin of shepherd's pie but with a layer of corn. There was also a strong influence of French cuisine. My mum's cassoulet remains my ultimate comfort food. On Lee Noodle Soup (22 Shau Kei Wan Main Street East, Shau Kei Wan. Tel: 2513 8398). Their wonton and I have called Hong Kong home for over 20 years, and I love local staples like dim sum, wonton and beef brisket noodles. One spot I really like is(22 Shau Kei Wan Main Street East, Shau Kei Wan. Tel: 2513 8398). Their wonton and beef noodles are top-notch, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is old-school Hong Kong. Beef brisket in broth at On Lee Noodle Shop.

Mini Labubus are coming after your mobile phone, as Pop Mart aims to double 2025 sales
Pop Mart said it would be able to easily double this year's revenue from its 2024 record sales, as it prepares to launch a mini version of the Labubu plush toy to extend its phenomenal success and conquer more hearts beyond mainland China. The company, founded in 2010 in Beijing, could double its 2025 revenue to 30 billion yuan (US$4.2 billion) from last year's sales of 13 billion yuan, said Pop Mart's founder and CEO Wang Ning, citing the bigger-than-imagined worldwide market for its plush toys and figurines. 'I think hitting 30 billion [yuan] this year will be easy,' Wang said during a post-earnings press briefing in Hong Kong on Wednesday, a day after reporting an interim net profit that quintupled to 4.57 billion yuan from a year ago. 'In the past, Labubu figures were often seen attached to bags, but as early as next week, people [can] start attaching them to their phones.' The bullish forecast underscores Pop Mart's rise from obscurity as a toy seller in Beijing's Zhongguancun technological zone to the world's most valuable toymaker, with a market capitalisation larger than the sum total of Hasbro, Mattel and Sanrio.
