The Chinese e-commerce solutions provider Baozun Inc (Nasdaq: BZUN) is scheduled to report its third quarter 2018 earnings on Wednesday, November 21 before the US market opens. For the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the company expects revenue to be between RMB1.09 billion and RMB1.2 billion, representing a growth of 13-25% over the prior year.
Baozun provides end-to-end brand e-commerce solutions to its brand partners, which include IT solutions, online store operations, digital marketing, customer service, and warehousing and fulfillment.
The Shanghai, China-based company helps its brand partners to establish market presence and launch products on official brand stores, and major online marketplaces like Alibaba’s (BABA) Tmall and JD.com (JD), and major social media platforms like WeChat and Weibo, in China. Some notable brand partners include Philips, Nike (NKE) and Microsoft (MSFT).
Baozun, which went public on Nasdaq in May 2015, reported its second quarter 2018 results in August 2018. Total gross merchandise volume (GMV) jumped 69% to RMB6.1 million. Revenue increased by 30% to RMB1.16 billion ($175 million) and non-GAAP profit per ADS rose 32% to RMB0.96 ($0.15) compared to the second quarter of 2017.
