Smart Globe pivots to African logistics as profits rebound in 2025

The latest update is out from Smart Globe Holdings Ltd. ( (HK:1481) ).

Smart Globe Holdings reported a sharp turnaround for 2025 as revenue jumped 74.3% to HK$204.9 million and profit attributable to shareholders reached HK$7.9 million, reversing a loss a year earlier. The improvement was driven by explosive growth in its supply chain management segment, which now contributes just over half of group revenue, offsetting a 13.1% decline in its traditional printing business amid fierce competition.

To capture booming logistics demand from Sub-Saharan Africa’s commodities trade, the group expanded aggressively in Zambia by acquiring land near the DRC border, building a logistics and bonded warehouse center with COSCO SHIPPING Africa and ordering 50 tractor trucks and 50 semi-trailers. It also leased part of the Zambian land to a third party to secure stable rental income while preserving an option to expand its warehouse and production footprint, indicating a strategic pivot toward regional logistics infrastructure despite not declaring a final dividend for the year.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:1481) stock is a Hold with a HK$3.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Smart Globe Holdings Ltd. stock, see the HK:1481 Stock Forecast page.
