The latest update is out from MEGAIN Holding (Cayman) Co. Ltd. ( (HK:6939) ).

MEGAIN Holding (Cayman) Co. Ltd. has issued a profit warning, stating it expects to post a net loss of at least RMB60 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, compared with a net profit of about RMB9.7 million a year earlier. The reversal is mainly due to sharply lower margins in its compatible printer cartridge chip business amid intense industry competition, higher selling and distribution costs from marketing new IoT chip and online sales initiatives, increased administrative expenses related to relocating its China headquarters and inventory write-offs, and substantial impairment losses on various assets.

The announcement, based on unaudited management accounts and still subject to auditor and audit committee review, comes as the company is the subject of a mandatory unconditional cash offer for all its issued shares not already held by the offeror and its concert parties. As the profit warning qualifies as a profit forecast under takeover rules, it carries implications for how the ongoing offer is conducted and disclosed, and shareholders are advised that the detailed annual results are expected by the end of March 2026.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:6939) stock is a Hold with a HK$1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on MEGAIN Holding (Cayman) Co. Ltd. stock, see the HK:6939 Stock Forecast page.
