Pattern Detected

Across 5 prior earnings releases, all with positive operational trends, 3 saw negative next-day moves and 2 saw strong gains, indicating inconsistent price reactions.

Recent Company History

Over the last five earnings cycles from Q3 2024 through Q3 2025, Dingdong consistently delivered non-GAAP profitability with growing GMV and revenues. However, margins narrowed as cost of goods sold increased and gross margin slipped below 30%. Cash generation and cash balances steadily improved, with multiple consecutive quarters of positive operating cash flow. Those results set up Q4 2025 as another quarter of modest growth and continued profitability, while the separate agreement to sell the China business to Meituan adds a major strategic shift on top of the financial trajectory.

Average Historical Move earnings

Past 5 earnings releases produced an average absolute move of 3.36%, with mixed direction despite broadly positive fundamentals, framing Q4 2025 as part of a volatile earnings pattern.

Earnings since late 2024 show a progression of sustained GAAP and non-GAAP profitability, steady revenue and GMV growth, but gradual margin compression as cost of goods sold rises. Cash generation strengthened with multiple quarters of positive operating cash flow and growing cash balances, providing a solid backdrop for the latest Q4 2025 results and the concurrent strategic pivot via the Meituan transaction.

Analysis

This announcement underscores Dingdong’s balance of growth and profitability in Q4 2025, with GMV of RMB6,703.2M, revenue of RMB6,242.6M, and the eighth consecutive GAAP-profitable quarter. At the same time, gross margin softened to 29.3% and net income declined versus Q4 2024, extending a trend of margin pressure seen in earlier results. The company continues to generate positive operating cash flow and build cash reserves, while the previously disclosed sale of its China business to Meituan adds a major strategic transition to monitor.

Key Terms

gmv, non-gaap, gaap, cpi, +1 more

5 terms

gmv financial

"GMV for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased by 2.4% year over year to RMB6,703.2 million"

Gross merchandise value (GMV) is the total dollar value of all goods and services sold through a platform or marketplace over a given period, measured before deducting fees, returns, or discounts. Investors watch GMV to gauge the raw size and growth of customer activity—like counting every ticket sold at a concert before subtracting organizer costs—while remembering it is not the same as revenue or profit.

non-gaap financial

"Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was RMB50.8 million (US$7.3 million)"

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

gaap financial

"Dingdong has maintained profitability under non-GAAP standards for thirteen consecutive quarters and under GAAP standards for eight"

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

cpi financial

"The increase was offset by the impact of the price decline in CPI for certain major categories in our business"

Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures how the prices of a typical “shopping basket” of goods and services change over time, like checking whether a grocery cart costs more or less than before. Investors watch CPI because rising prices can squeeze consumers, alter company profits and prompt central banks to change interest rates, which affects borrowing costs, bond yields and stock valuations.

b2b financial

"Additionally, our B2B revenue achieved year-over-year growth, with the revenue contribution from overseas B2B operations"

Business-to-business (B2B) describes companies that sell products or services to other businesses rather than to individual consumers. For investors, B2B models often mean larger, repeatable contracts and revenue tied to corporate budgets, which can produce steadier, more predictable cash flow; think of a parts supplier selling regular batches to a factory rather than a shop selling single items to walk-in customers, so customer concentration and contract length matter.

SHANGHAI, March 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Dingdong (Cayman) Limited ("Dingdong" or the "Company") (NYSE: DDL), a leading fresh grocery e-commerce company in China, with advanced supply chain capabilities, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights:

• GMV for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased by 2.4% year over year to RMB6,703.2 million (US$943.0 million) from RMB6,546.6 million in the same quarter of 2024, positive year-on-year growth for eight straight quarters.
• Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased by 5.7% year over year to RMB6,242.6 million (US$892.7 million) from RMB5,905.0 million in the same quarter of 2024, positive year-on-year growth for eight straight quarters.
• Total number of orders increased by 3.4% year over year in the fourth quarter of 2025.
• Net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was RMB33.6 million (US$4.8 million), the eighth consecutive quarter of profitability.
• Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was RMB50.8 million (US$7.3 million), the thirteenth consecutive quarter of non-GAAP profitability.

Mr. Changlin Liang, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Dingdong, stated, "As of the fourth quarter of 2025, Dingdong has maintained profitability under non-GAAP standards for thirteen consecutive quarters and under GAAP standards for eight consecutive quarters. Also the Company has delivered year-over-year revenue growth for the eighth consecutive quarter. This consistent top-line expansion, together with the steady delivery of profitability objectives, fully underscores Dingdong's strategic resilience and strong execution capabilities amid the complex and competitive market environment. It also provides solid fundamentals and strong momentum to advance our long-term strategic initiatives."

Mr. Song Wang, Chief Financial Officer of Dingdong, stated, "In the fourth quarter of 2025, Dingdong reported revenue of RMB6.24 billion, marking a 5.7% year-on-year growth and maintaining positive growth for eight straight quarters. Non-GAAP net profit reached RMB50.8 million with a 0.8% net profit margin, while GAAP net profit was RMB33.6 million with a 0.5% margin. We had net operating cash inflow of RMB0.20 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025, the tenth consecutive quarter of positive cash flow. By the end of the fourth quarter, after deducting short-term borrowings, our actual cash owned increased to RMB3.14 billion, the tenth consecutive quarter of sustained growth."

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB6,242.6 million (US$892.7 million) compared with total revenues of RMB5,905.0 million in the same quarter of 2024, increased by 5.7% year over year, primarily due to the rise of number of orders resulting from rise in the average monthly number of transacting users and higher monthly order frequency, and new opened frontline fulfillment stations with density and market penetration improved in East China. Additionally, our B2B revenue achieved year-over-year growth, with the revenue contribution from overseas B2B operations continuing to increase and posting rapid quarter-over-quarter growth. The increase was offset by the impact of the price decline in CPI for certain major categories in our business, such as pork, in the fourth quarter of 2025.

• Product Revenues were RMB6,164.6 million (US$881.5 million) compared with product revenues of RMB5,822.5 million in the same quarter of 2024, increased by 5.9% year over year.
  
  
• Service Revenues were RMB78.0 million (US$11.2 million) compared with service revenues of RMB82.5 million in the same quarter of 2024, decreased by 5.4% year over year.

Total operating costs and expenses were RMB6,252.5 million (US$894.1 million) compared with RMB5,848.0 million in the same quarter of 2024, with a detailed breakdown as below:

• Cost of goods sold was RMB4,415.9 million (US$631.5 million), an increase of 7.2% from RMB4,120.8 million in the same quarter of 2024. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues increased to 70.7% from 69.8% in the same quarter of 2024. Gross margin decreased to 29.3% from 30.2% in the same quarter of 2024. Since the launch and continued implementation of the 4G Strategy in early 2025, the gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 was generally consistent with that of previous quarters, but decreased compared with the same period of the prior year.
  
  
• Fulfillment expenses were RMB1,350.9 million (US$193.2 million), an increase of 5.6% from RMB1,278.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. Fulfillment expenses as a percentage of total revenues slightly decreased to 21.6% from 21.7% in the same quarter of 2024.
  
  
• Sales and marketing expenses were RMB136.7 million (US$19.5 million), a decrease of 0.6% from RMB137.5 million in the same quarter of 2024. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 2.2% from 2.3% in the same quarter of 2024. The year-on-year decrease in marketing expenses is attributable to the positive results achieved by the 4G strategy rolled out in the first three quarters. The company has further focused on the operation strategy of leveraging the organic traffic of high-quality products, reduced investment in inefficient marketing activities, and thus improved the input-output efficiency of marketing expenses.
  
  
• General and administrative expenses were RMB130.3 million (US$18.6 million), an increase of 19.3% from RMB109.2 million in the same quarter of 2024, mainly driven by staff costs, specifically from the new "Dong Li Sheng" management trainees.
  
  
• Product development expenses were RMB218.7 million (US$31.3 million), an increase of 8.5% from RMB201.6 million in the same quarter of 2024. While advocating for energy and resource saving, we will continue to invest in our product development capabilities, agricultural technology, data algorithms, and other technology infrastructure such as the AI technical capability, to further enhance our competitiveness.

Net income from operations was RMB12.0 million (US$1.7 million), compared with net income from operations of RMB61.5 million in the same quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP income from operations, which is a non-GAAP measure for loss from operations that excludes share-based compensation expenses, was RMB29.1 million (US$4.2 million), compared with Non-GAAP income from operations of RMB86.6 million in the same quarter of 2024.

In addition, non-GAAP net income margin, which is the Company's non-GAAP net income as a percentage of total revenues, was 0.8% compared with 2.0% in the same quarter of 2024.

Basic and diluted net income per share were RMB0.10 (US$0.01) and RMB0.09 (US$0.01), compared with net income per share of RMB0.27 and RMB0.26 in the same quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, were RMB0.15 (US$0.02) and RMB0.14 (US$0.02), compared with RMB0.35 and RMB0.33 in the same quarter of 2024.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments were RMB3,976.8 million (US$568.7 million) as of December 31, 2025, compared with RMB3,908.2 million as of September 30, 2025. We have been working diligently to optimize our capital usage and financing structure.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income margin, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges and do not correlate to any operating activity trends. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company's results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company's operating performance, cash flows or liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company's definition of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of industry peers and may not be comparable with their non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" set forth at the end of this announcement.
