Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

First Shanghai Investments Limited ( (HK:0227) ) just unveiled an update.

First Shanghai Investments Limited reported consolidated revenue of HK$407.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, up slightly from HK$390.4 million a year earlier, reflecting modest top-line growth despite a challenging environment. The company’s core operations generated a higher gross profit of HK$234.2 million, but this was outweighed by increased general and administrative expenses of HK$280.0 million.

The group swung to a net loss attributable to shareholders of HK$94.0 million in 2025, compared with a profit of HK$78.0 million in 2024, as impairments of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets totaling HK$52.1 million and net other losses replaced prior-year gains. Basic and diluted earnings per share dropped to a loss of HK4.29 cents from earnings of HK3.56 cents, underscoring a deterioration in profitability that may concern investors even as other comprehensive income remained positive, partly cushioning the overall hit to equity.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0227) stock is a Hold with a HK$0.28 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on First Shanghai Investments Limited stock, see the HK:0227 Stock Forecast page.
