Henderson Investment Narrows 2025 Loss as It Reshapes Hong Kong Retail Network

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Henderson Investment Limited ( (HK:0097) ) has shared an update.

Henderson Investment Limited reported a narrowed loss attributable to shareholders of HK$67 million for 2025, compared with HK$125 million a year earlier, with loss per share improving to HK2.2 cents. Net asset value slipped to HK$1,004 million, or HK$0.33 per share, and the board again withheld a final dividend in light of the continuing losses.

The group’s retail operations faced ongoing headwinds from shifting tourist spending, local shoppers heading to the Mainland, and intensifying cross‑border e‑commerce competition. In response, management pushed further integration between its Citistore and Unicorn chains, expanded a unified loyalty ecosystem via CU APP and H COINS to over 910,000 members, and undertook cost and network optimisation, including store closures, downsizing, merchandising upgrades, social‑media‑driven marketing, themed promotions such as a “THAI Fair”, and rental and manpower efficiencies to bolster long‑term sustainability.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0097) stock is a Hold with a HK$0.17 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Henderson Investment Limited stock, see the HK:0097 Stock Forecast page.
