KE Holdings Inc. (BEKE) Q1 2026 Earnings Call Transcript
KE NYSE: BEKE reported a sharp improvement in first-quarter profitability despite lower transaction volume and revenue, as management said cost controls, operating efficiency gains and higher contribution margins across core businesses helped offset a softer year-over-year property market comparison.
KE Holdings remains a hold as core transaction volumes and revenues continue to decline sharply, with no imminent recovery in sight. Q4 results were weak: net revenues fell 28.7% y/y, GTV dropped 36.7%, and EBIT margin turned negative, reflecting broad-based pressure across key segments. Management maintains a neutral 2026 market outlook, and stabilization is not expected before 2027, limiting near-term re-rating potential.
