Pop Mart - Beyond a toy company (Not Rated)
Founded in 2010, Pop Mart is best known for its blind box toy collectibles and popular IPs such as Labubu, Molly, Skullpanda, and Crybaby.
As of June 2025, it operates 571 stores across 18 countries and over 2,500 roboshops, establishing itself as a global leader in designer collectibles.
While blind boxes remain core to its appeal, plush toys have become a major growth driver, rising to 35% of revenue in 1H25 from 22% in 2024.
The surge in Labubu plush toys highlights Pop Mart’s ability to broaden product formats and reduce reliance on blind boxes.
Heavy reliance on key IPs
Growth is still concentrated in a few franchises, with the top five IPs contributing 70% of revenue in 2025 and Labubu alone at 23%.
The launch of new IPs like Twinkle Twinkle shows potential to diversify, but dependence on a handful of characters exposes the company to brand fatigue risk.

Extending IP monetisation
Pop Mart is leveraging its IPs beyond toys through ventures like an in-house film studio, animated series, and its Beijing-based theme park “Pop Land.”
While still modest compared to global entertainment giants, these initiatives show ambition to expand consumer touchpoints and revenue streams.
Accelerating international growth
Overseas markets are gaining importance, with Asia Pacific and the Americas contributing 21% and 16% of 1H25 revenue, respectively.
Overseas sales grew sharply (+258% and +1,142% YoY), though the store base remains small compared with China, leaving significant runway for expansion.

Strong financial performance
Revenue surged 204% YoY to RMB 13.9 billion in 1H25, with net profit rising 386% YoY to RMB 4.7 billion.
Gross margin improved to 70.3% from 64.0%, supported by higher overseas sales, cost optimisation, and stronger supplier terms, making Pop Mart the most profitable among peers.
Risks of brand fatigue and high expectations
Pop Mart’s reliance on a few key IPs makes it vulnerable to shifting consumer sentiment.
Recent weakness in the resale value of Mini Labubu collectibles illustrates the risk.
With high growth already priced in, the share price remains sensitive to any slowdown in sales momentum.
Valuation highlights growth and risk
As of 26 September 2025, the stock has rallied 192% year-to-date, far outpacing the Hang Seng Index, reflecting its global appeal and strong growth.
However, recent volatility highlights near-term risks, and the company’s ability to diversify IPs and sustain new monetisation channels will be key for future growth.
