Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

China Merchants Land Limited ( (HK:0978) ) has provided an update.

China Merchants Land Limited reported a sharp increase in revenue to RMB26.25 billion for 2025 from RMB20.66 billion a year earlier, driven by higher property sales, which lifted gross profit to RMB1.66 billion. However, the group remained loss-making, with a wider net loss attributable to shareholders of RMB2.20 billion and basic losses per share deepening to 44.87 RMB cents.

The company’s bottom line was pressured by heavy finance costs, significant income tax expenses and sizeable losses from associates and joint ventures, despite a one-off gain from the remeasurement of a previously held joint venture interest. The results underline continued profitability challenges for the developer amid a stressed Chinese property market, signaling ongoing risks for investors and non-controlling stakeholders even as operating revenue grows.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0978) stock is a Hold with a HK$0.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on China Merchants Land Limited stock, see the HK:0978 Stock Forecast page.
