(RTTNews) - Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (BABA) will host a conference call at 7:30 AM ET on May 18, 2023, to discuss Q4 earnings results.

Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group ( NYSE:BABA ) is scheduled to release its Fiscal Q4 earnings on May 18, before the market opens. Ahead of the results, Mizuho Securities analyst  James Lee remains bullish on the stock’s prospects and expects the company to benefit from the recovering Chinese economy. The analyst believes retail revenues will remain stable compared to the year-ago quarter. Further, he expects Alibaba’s wholesale business to witness 5% growth “driven by a recovery in business sentiment post-reopening.” Additionally, Lee sees 14% year-over-year growth in revenue from BABA’s International Commerce unit. This is based on the upbeat performance of AliExpress and exports' accelerating growth due to the improved European macro climate. In addition, topline growth for the Cloud segment is projected to increase by 5%. In this regard, Lee claimed that “as China reopens and enterprise sentiment improves, China’s cloud market should be in the recovery stage.” Lee reiterated a Buy rating on BABA stock on May 9 but lowered the price target to $145 from $155. Overall, the Street expects  BABA to post an adjusted profit of $1.37 per ADS in Q4, compared to the year-ago quarter figure of $1.14 per ADS. Meanwhile, revenue is pegged at $30.05 billion, 6.5% lower than Q4FY22's revenue of $32.14 billion.
