Analysis:

TheStreet Quant Ratings

rates JD.com as a

hold

. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and solid stock price performance. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the company's profit margins have been poor overall.

Highlights from the ratings report include:

  • JD's very impressive revenue growth exceeded the industry average of 45.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues leaped by 60.6%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
  • JD's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.04 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels.
  • Compared to other companies in the Internet & Catalog Retail industry and the overall market, JD.COM INC -ADR's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
  • The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed compared to the Internet & Catalog Retail industry average, but is greater than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 12.3% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from -$93.90 million to -$82.33 million.
  • The gross profit margin for JD.COM INC -ADR is currently extremely low, coming in at 6.36%. Regardless of JD's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of -1.11% trails the industry average.
