Summary
VNET Group: Solid Wholesale Execution Overshadowed By Balance Sheet Reality
VNET Group remains rated Neutral as the market shifts focus from event-driven catalysts to fundamentals amid uncertainty around the CATL transaction.

The CATL deal's closure, expected Q4, is critical; delays or regulatory hurdles could exacerbate downside risk given VNET's balance sheet pressures.
