While KUAISHOU-W (01024.HK)'s 3Q24 revenue and net profit were in line with expectations, its 4Q24 outlook was also on track with sell-side consensus, UBS released a research report saying.

The market's expectations for the 4Q24 e-commerce business have improved owing to the Double 11 announcements. Management confirmed the strong performance of Double 11, but pointed out that it caused some cannibalization in GMV for October and December. The broker maintained its forecast of a 14% YoY growth in 4Q24 GMV.
