JD.com reported a 15% year-on-year increase in net profit for the second quarter, even as net revenue fell 2.9% to 346.4 billion yuan. The company’s revenue still topped the 342.1 billion yuan consensus estimate from analysts polled by Bloomberg. CEO Sandy Xu Ran said improving profitability in the core retail business and narrower losses in newer initiatives such as food delivery marked an inflection point in the firm’s profit trajectory. JD.com said it plans to build on that momentum in the second half of the year.
