Anta Sports stock falls 2.31 percent as H1 margins rise

Anta Sports stock stood at CNY 61.25 in HKEX trading on September 18, 2026, down 2.31 percent from the prior close. The move leaves the shares 30.0 percent below their 52-week high of CNY 87.50, while first-half operating margins reached a seven-year high.

Revenue reaches CNY 43.51 billion

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenue rose 12.9 percent year over year to CNY 43.51 billion, according to ANTA Sports. Operating profit grew 16.1 percent to CNY 11.76 billion, giving the earnings profile more support than the headline share-price move suggests.

The company reported a gross profit margin of 63.9 percent, up 0.5 percentage points year over year. Its operating profit margin increased 0.7 percentage points to 27.0 percent, with the richer brand mix and operating efficiency helping profit growth exceed revenue growth.

Other brands drive portfolio growth

The portfolio picture was uneven but expansive. ANTA brand revenue rose 4.8 percent to CNY 17.77 billion, while FILA revenue increased 6.1 percent to CNY 15.05 billion. Revenue from other brands climbed 44.2 percent to CNY 10.69 billion, according to the interim-results figures published by FilingReader.

That split matters for investors because the mature ANTA and FILA brands expanded at single-digit rates, while the smaller portfolio delivered the fastest growth. E-commerce represented 35.7 percent of first-half revenue, adding a measurable digital channel to the multi-brand strategy.

On August 31, 2026, DBS reiterated its BUY rating and set a target price of HKD 112.00, citing Anta's positions in outdoor, running, and racquet sports categories, according to DBS Bank. The target is a separate analyst assessment and is stated in HKD, while the reference quote above is the CNY counter on HKEX.

Stock remains below yearly high

Anta Sports stock was valued at CNY 61.25 on September 18, 2026, with a market capitalization of CNY 170,303,058,809. The combination of 12.9 percent revenue growth, a 27.0 percent operating margin, and a 30.0 percent gap to the yearly high places execution and valuation on separate tracks.
