Company Report

YTO Express Has More Pricing Power Than STO Express and Yunda Holding

The network partner model-based companies in China have gained parcel volume share from direct operation-based companies, with share rising to 78% in 2023 from 76% in 2022. The six largest express delivery companies controlled around 87% of China’s parcel deliveries by volume in 2023, based on data from the companies and China’s State Post Bureau. With share already high, we think further volume share gain is limited for the network partner model-based companies.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Successful mergers or acquisitions could strengthen YTO’s scale.

Bears

YTO could lose more volume share than expected to competitor STO following support to the latter by Alibaba Holdings that enables STO to be more aggressive in its price cuts for longer.
