Company Report

Momo.com Offers Best-in-Class Logistics for E-Commerce in Taiwan but Growth Appears To Be Slowing

We expect Momo.com to maintain its leading market share in Taiwan’s business-to-consumer, or B2C, direct sales e-commerce industry, due to a sizable lead in logistics infrastructure among peers that has indirectly led to more users, better convenience, and a higher operating margin than its closest peer. Momo.com is leveraging its logistics advantage and convenience as its long-term strategy and plans to building out two more major distribution centers by 2025, which should further differentiate its service between not only online competition but also brick-and-mortar retailers. The company is also adding new livestreaming and third-party, or 3P, platforms to its business, which could also further add incremental users.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Taiwan is relatively underpenetrated in e-commerce and should provide a conducive backdrop for market share-taking.

Bears

The retail sector remains a relatively low-barrier-to-entry industry where others could eventually replicate the same strategy in the long term.
