Now is an attractive entry point for long-term investors.
Escalating competition in China's food delivery is expanding the market, validating Meituan's moat, and strengthening its user base despite near-term margin pressure.
Emerging segments like Instashopping and in-store services are scaling rapidly, diversifying Meituan's business and deepening consumer trust beyond food delivery.
While margins may remain pressured short-term due to subsidies, I expect profitability and multiples to rebound as competition normalizes by FY26.
