Litu Holdings Flags Sharp 2025 Profit Slump on Weaker Cigarette Packaging Sales and Disposal Loss

Litu Holdings Limited ( (HK:1008) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Litu Holdings Limited has warned that its profit attributable to shareholders for the year ended 31 December 2025 is expected to fall sharply to between HK$1 million and HK$5 million, down from about HK$80.6 million a year earlier. The decline is mainly due to a roughly 35% drop in cigarette package sales volume and a loss of about HK$33 million on the disposal of a 31% equity interest in associate Changde Gold Roc Printing Co., Ltd., prompting the company to caution investors ahead of its audited annual results due by the end of March 2026.

The announcement underscores mounting operational pressures on Litu’s core cigarette packaging business and the financial impact of its portfolio reshaping, which have eroded profitability despite the Group remaining in positive earnings territory. With the final 2025 results still subject to audit review and potential adjustments, shareholders and potential investors are urged to exercise caution when trading the company’s shares amid elevated earnings volatility and strategic transition.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:1008) stock is a Buy with a HK$0.24 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Litu Holdings Limited stock, see the HK:1008 Stock Forecast page.
