However, the main business lines were generally in line with expectations. E-commerce customer management revenue grew by 1% year-on-year, meeting the bank's expectations; cloud business revenue grew by 36%, with an EBITA margin of 9%, also in line with expectations. The main deviation from expectations was due to increased investment in the Tongyi Qianwen model and consumer applications during the quarter. Goldman Sachs maintains a "Buy" rating on Alibaba, with a target price of HKD 180 based on the SOTP valuation method. The report pointed out that positive factors in the performance included: AI revenue achieving triple-digit growth for the tenth consecutive quarter; external cloud revenue accelerating to a 35% growth; AI-driven capital expenditures remaining at RMB 29 billion. Management also elaborated on the details of Alibaba's AI infrastructure and full-stack AI layout, emphasizing the rapid expansion of the Tongyi Qianwen model family, the PingTouGe chips, and the progress of Tongyi Qianwen consumer AI applications. The bank expects the market to focus on several key points during the earnings conference, including: the newly established Alibaba Token Hub business unit and Tongyi Qianwen model strategy, the positioning of AI applications in AI agency opportunities, cloud growth and capital expenditure trajectory and return on investment, Tongyi Qianwen consumer AI application strategy, the improvement path for unit economics in instant retail business, and the strategies of Taotian Group to address the weakness in customer management revenue and profit margin trends in 2026 ### 相关股票 - [BABA-W (09988.HK)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/09988.HK.md) - [Alibaba (BABA.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/BABA.US.md) - [KraneShares 2x Long BABA Daily ETF (KBAB.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/KBAB.US.md) - [BABA 2x Long Daily ETF - GraniteShares (BABX.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/BABX.US.md) - [YieldMax BABA Option Income Strategy ETF (BABO.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/BABO.US.md) ## 相关资讯与研究 - [Alibaba Reportedly Launches New AI Platform That Oversees Multiple Agents](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/279412426.md) - [Alibaba Unveils Token Hub To Consolidate AI Efforts](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/279272192.md) - [Alibaba has made 470,000 AI chips, admits they’re inferior and may always be](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/279869327.md) - [From AI Fabs to Fintech: Four New Tools for Fast Narratives](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/279800895.md) - [2 Beaten-Down AI Stocks Investors Shouldn’t Dump Yet](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/279827679.md)
