EPI (Holdings) Grants NZD3 Million Secured Loan Through New Zealand Unit

EPI (Holdings) Limited ( (HK:0689) ) has provided an announcement.

EPI (Holdings) Limited’s New Zealand subsidiary, EPI ESG Investment (New Zealand) Limited, has agreed to provide an NZD3 million loan facility to Solumate Limited, secured by a first mortgage over properties in Albany, Auckland. The eight‑month loan, bearing 6% annual interest with monthly payments and backed by a personal guarantee from Yi Xie, is funded from internal resources and qualifies as a discloseable transaction under Hong Kong listing rules, signaling the group’s continued use of secured lending to enhance returns while managing risk through collateral and guarantees.

The transaction underlines EPI’s strategy of deploying balance‑sheet capital into short‑tenor, asset‑backed loans in overseas markets, potentially diversifying income streams beyond its core operations. For shareholders, the deal adds interest income and exemplifies disciplined risk management via mortgage security and a guarantee, though at a scale that is material enough to require market disclosure but not large enough to significantly alter the company’s overall risk profile.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0689) stock is a Hold with a HK$0.19 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on EPI (Holdings) Limited stock, see the HK:0689 Stock Forecast page.
