Hongkong Chinese flags HK$0.9 billion annual loss on property and JV hits

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Hongkong Chinese Limited ( (HK:0655) ) has shared an update.

Hongkong Chinese Limited has warned that it expects to post a consolidated loss attributable to shareholders of about HK$0.9 billion for the year ended 31 December 2025, narrowing from a HK$1.2 billion loss a year earlier. The loss is driven mainly by approximately HK$0.9 billion in losses from joint ventures, largely non-cash in nature and tied to fair value declines in investment properties, losses from equity-accounted investees and an impairment provision on one such investment, underscoring continued pressure on its property-linked portfolio and prompting the company to caution investors ahead of its final results release on 31 March 2026.

The Board emphasized that these figures are based on preliminary internal assessments and have not yet been audited, signaling potential revisions once the external review is complete. While the reduced loss suggests a modest improvement from 2024, the ongoing non-cash hits to asset values highlight persistent volatility in the Group’s investment property and associated investment exposures, and shareholders are advised to exercise caution when trading the company’s shares in light of these conditions.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0655) stock is a Sell with a HK$0.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hongkong Chinese Limited stock, see the HK:0655 Stock Forecast page.
