Since CHINA RES BEER (00291.HK) unveiled its interim results, the market had already anticipated that the company would issue a profit warning due to provisions for its baijiu business, Jefferies said in its research report.

Excluding these provisions, the company's net profit last year was between RMB5.9 billion and RMB6.1 billion, beating expectations.
