Starbucks Denies Full Sale of China Operations, Shares Rise
Starbucks (SBUX) shares gained momentum after the company refuted reports of a complete divestiture of its China business. Caixin magazine had earlier claimed the coffee chain engaged with over a dozen potential buyers, sparking speculation about a strategic exit from the competitive Chinese market.
The Seattle-based firm, advised by Goldman Sachs (GS), initiated a formal review process in May but maintains no final decision on stake size or operational carve-outs. Market pressures mount as local rivals like Luckin Coffee and delivery services erode Starbucks' dominance through lower pricing and convenience.
