Central Wealth lifts CMBC stake to 3.27% in discloseable HK$42.6 million share build-up

Central Wealth Group Holdings Limited ( (HK:0139) ) has shared an update.

Central Wealth has continued to build its stake in CMBC Capital by acquiring 10,050,000 CMBC shares on the open market on 25 February 2026 for about HK$16.1 million, funded entirely from existing resources. Together with shares bought between February 2025 and February 2026, the group now holds 35,920,250 CMBC shares, representing roughly 3.27% of CMBC’s issued share capital, with the size of the aggregated purchases triggering a discloseable transaction classification under Hong Kong listing rules.

The move increases Central Wealth’s exposure to CMBC, an investment holding company engaged in securities, investment and financing, and asset management and advisory services, which returned to profitability in 2024 after a loss in 2023 and reported higher net asset value. The stepped-up investment signals confidence in CMBC’s improving financial profile and positions Central Wealth more firmly within the financial services and securities investment space, while formally notifying investors of the scale and regulatory status of the transactions.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0139) stock is a Sell with a HK$0.16 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Central Wealth Group Holdings Limited stock, see the HK:0139 Stock Forecast page.
