Walnut Capital Limited ( (HK:0905) ) has shared an announcement.

Walnut Capital Limited has warned investors that it expects to swing to a net loss of at least HK$170 million for the year ending 31 December 2025, reversing from a modest profit of about HK$0.4 million in 2024. The deterioration is mainly driven by an impairment loss of roughly HK$142.9 million on cryptocurrencies, a HK$7.4 million loss on disposing of such assets, and a shift from a fair value gain to a loss on other financial assets.

The company stressed that these figures are based on unaudited management accounts and that the final 2025 results may differ once the audit is completed. The profit warning underlines the earnings volatility linked to Walnut Capital’s crypto and fair value investment exposures and signals heightened risk for shareholders, who are urged to exercise caution when trading the company’s securities ahead of the full results due by the end of March 2026.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0905) stock is a Hold with a HK$1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Walnut Capital Limited stock, see the HK:0905 Stock Forecast page.
