Why Is CHAGEE HLDGS LTD ADR (CHA) Stock Moving Today?

Chagee Holdings Ltd ADR shares rose 5.13% to $13.12 on Monday. The primary driver was an upgrade from Jefferies, which moved the stock to a Buy rating with a $14.90 price target, citing an overly bearish market view on the brand's recovery.

What Happened

Jefferies upgraded Chagee from Hold to Buy, setting a $14.90 target price. The firm pointed to improving same-store sales in China and long-term growth potential as key factors. This action followed a similar move by Macquarie, which also upgraded the stock to Outperform. The upgrades come after the company reported second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $0.37, beating the estimate of $0.32, although sales of $503.25 million missed the expected $528.29 million.
