(ISIN CNE0000018R8, Shanghai: 600519) closed at 1,257.12 CNY on September 19, 2026 on its home venue, a move that reflected a 0.78% loss compared with the prior close, according to a recent performance overview. As of that session, the share price remained only a few percent below its 52-week high and clearly above the 52-week low, illustrating a still elevated valuation level after a recovery phase over recent months, as noted in a recap from Ad-hoc-news. Trading data for that period show that the broader Shanghai Composite index closed at 3,911.9 points with a 0.94% gain on September 18, 2026, while the CSI 300 added 1.06%, according to a market wrap by Capital Futures, highlighting that Kweichow Moutai lagged the main domestic benchmarks around the last session.
Fundamentally, Kweichow Moutai recently reported solid first-half 2026 results with clear year-on-year growth in revenue and net profit and continued high operating margins, a backdrop that has helped keep the share price near previous highs, as described by Ad-hoc-news. A recent note citing TradingView data also pointed to a quarterly earnings per share figure of 15.23 CNY versus a market expectation of 15.70 CNY, implying a modest negative earnings surprise of 2.97% for that quarter, according to Ad-hoc-news, which may have contributed to the recent consolidation in the share price despite overall robust growth.
