Did JD Beat Earnings? Q2 2025 Results

JD.com delivered a sharply mixed second quarter for 2025, posting revenue of $49.79 billion — up 22.4% year-over-year — while falling well short of analyst expectations, with EPS of $0.69 missing the $3.5557 consensus by 80.59% and revenue coming in 85.17% below the $335.64 billion estimate. The headline driver behind the earnings shortfall was a massive ramp-up in strategic spending, particularly on JD Food Delivery, where marketing expenses surged 127.6% and the New Businesses segment alone generated an operating loss of $14.78 billion at a negative 106.7% margin. Offsetting that pain, JD Retail remained resilient, growing revenue 20.6% and expanding its operating margin to a record 4.5% for a promotional quarter, with gross margin rising year-over-year for thirteen consecutive quarters. Management signaled it will continue investing in food delivery and <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2025/09/04/3-high-growth-tech-stocks-set-to-double-by-2027/">new growth initiatives</a> at a measured pace, framing near-term profit pressure as a deliberate trade-off for long-term value creation.

Key Takeaways
  • Robust growth in user traffic, quarterly active customers, and user shopping frequency
  • JD Retail 20.6% revenue growth with record 4.5% operating margin during promotion quarter
  • Net product revenues increased 20.7% driven by electronics and home appliances growth of 23.4%
  • Net service revenues increased 29.1% driven by logistics and other services growth of 34.3%
  • New Businesses revenue surged 198.8% YoY driven by JD Food Delivery expansion
  • JD Retail gross margin rising year-over-year for thirteen consecutive quarters

“In the second quarter, we saw robust growth in user traffic, quarterly active customers, and user shopping frequency on JD's platform, driven by sustained momentum across both our core JD Retail business and New Businesses including JD Food Delivery.”
