An announcement from Herbs Generation Group Holdings Limited Class H ( (HK:2593) ) is now available.

Herbs Generation Group Holdings Limited has warned that it expects to swing to a net loss of at least HK$23 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, compared with a net profit of about HK$13 million a year earlier. The reversal is attributed to weaker revenue and gross profit due to heavier promotional discounting, alongside higher advertising and promotion spending and increased staff costs.

The company said the figures are based on unaudited management accounts and remain subject to final review, with full annual results due by the end of March 2026. The profit warning underscores margin pressure from aggressive marketing and rising operating expenses, and the board has urged shareholders and potential investors to exercise caution when dealing in the company’s securities.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:2593) stock is a Hold with a HK$1.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Herbs Generation Group Holdings Limited Class H stock, see the HK:2593 Stock Forecast page.
