Cainiao Network According to publicly available information, ZTO Express-W (02057.HK) stock price recently reached a new high for the current phase (as of February 11, 2026), mainly driven by the following factors:

Stock Price and Capital Performance

The company repurchased approximately 182.54 million shares for about HKD 3.269 billion on February 4, 2026, and continued to buy ADRs in the U.S. market on February 10 and 11. The ongoing share repurchases signal management’s confidence in the company’s intrinsic value and provide direct support to the stock price.

Industry Policies and Environment

Recently, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and six other departments issued administrative guidance to platform companies, including courier firms, emphasizing the protection of rights for workers in new employment forms. Such policies help shift the industry focus from “price competition” to “quality competition,” improving overall profitability expectations and benefiting leading companies like ZTO.

Company Fundamentals

According to institutional analysis, ZTO maintained business growth in Q3 2025, with strong performance in parcel volume. The trend of “reducing internal competition” has led to month-over-month improvements in per-ticket profit. Full-year 2025 estimates project revenue of RMB 48.5-50 billion, up 9.5%-12.9% year-over-year; parcel volume of 38.52 billion pieces, up 13.3%, maintaining its leading position.

Sector Changes

On February 11, 2026, the Hong Kong stock aviation logistics sector rose overall, with the Hang Seng Index closing higher, reflecting a positive market sentiment that supported individual stocks. Southbound funds have also shown net inflows recently, indicating increased investor interest in the Hong Kong courier sector.
