On July 15, Huaqin Technology (03296.HK) fell 3.27% in regular trading, trading at HK$68.95 per share, with turnover of HK$23.54 million. The decline extends selling pressure from the prior session, when the stock reversed from an initial 5% intraday gain to close down 5% despite a positive earnings pre-announcement.
On July 13, the company disclosed its H1 profit forecast, projecting attributable net profit of RMB 2.9 billion to RMB 3.05 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 53.5% to 61.5%. Operating revenue is expected to rise 10.8% to 13.2% to RMB 93-95 billion. Q2 standalone net profit is estimated at RMB 1.84-1.99 billion, up 73%-87% quarter-over-quarter. The company cited steady growth in mobile terminal and computing businesses, along with rapid expansion of innovation segments including automotive electronics and robotics. Additionally, non-operating profit growth was partly driven by upstream investments, including the recent increase of its stake in Nexchip to 10%.
Despite the strong headline growth, market participants appear to have treated the results as already priced in following the stock's prior run-up, with continued institutional selling pressure evident across the broader technology hardware sector.
