In the third quarter, we achieved stable revenue performance and reached a historic high in profit levels, mainly due to our efforts in price competitiveness and platform ecological construction, as well as our advantages in the supply chain. "Xu Ran, CEO of JD Group, said," I believe JD is in a favorable position to achieve long-term sustainable growth
Under the low-priced strategy
Revenue remains stable
In March of this year, JD's 10 billion yuan subsidy was officially launched, which immediately sparked heated discussions and concerns. The external concern is whether the low price strategy will affect JD's performance and stock price. In response, an employee in a JD retail technology position told Securities Daily, "After implementing a 10 billion yuan subsidy, we have lowered prices to the lowest in some categories and promised to compensate for expensive purchases. This has significantly increased platform sales and significantly boosted performance
On the JD Double 11 Media Open Day, JD retail executives also stated that the number of products on JD's 10 billion yuan subsidy channel has increased by two times compared to 618, and the user base has increased by nearly five times. The massive sales of high-quality products from hundreds of industry belts on the 9.9 package channel have exceeded one million units.

Overall, the retail sales of the entire home appliance category have declined, and we will definitely be affected. However, this category still maintains a year-on-year growth rate of revenue higher than the industry average
In addition, our self operated model's price reduction promotion will directly affect the performance of financial reporting revenue, but not profit. In other platform models, price reductions on the merchant side will not affect the platform's direct revenue. Moreover, our self operated model needs to allow some traffic space for third-party merchants, and the merchant side's revenue will not be directly included in JD's financial reporting revenue According to the above-mentioned insider of JD Group.

Squeezing water from efficiency has led to a further increase in supply chain efficiency, "said an insider at JD.com.
