Hong Kong – 26 August 2026 – Kaisa Capital Investment Holdings Limited reported a profit attributable to shareholders of HK$2.72 million for the six months ended 30 June 2026, down 39.0% from HK$4.46 million a year earlier, as softer Hong Kong demand and currency losses eclipsed stronger performance in Singapore.
Revenue and margins • Consolidated revenue fell 11.4% year-on-year to HK$104.32 million (1H25: HK$117.73 million). • Gross profit climbed 11.2% to HK$67.37 million, lifting the gross margin to 64.6% (1H25: 51.5%) on lower cost of sales and services. • Other income swung to a HK$1.27 million loss (1H25: HK$9.55 million gain), chiefly due to a HK$2.90 million net exchange loss and a HK$1.49 million disposal loss on plant and equipment. • Operating expenses were broadly stable at HK$56.01 million (-0.7% YoY), while finance costs declined 18.6% to HK$4.74 million. • Earnings per share slipped to 0.26 Hong Kong cents (1H25: 0.42 cents). The Board declared no interim dividend.
Segment performance • Hong Kong: Revenue contracted 35.4% to HK$39.71 million, reflecting lower crane utilisation. • Singapore: Revenue rose 18.0% to HK$55.50 million on higher fleet size and utilisation, becoming the Group’s largest market at 53.2% of total turnover. • Mainland China: Revenue edged down 1.4% to HK$9.11 million amid subdued real-estate construction.
Product mix • Equipment rental remained the core driver, inching up 1.1% to HK$76.02 million and contributing 72.9% of group sales. • Service income dropped 33.4% to HK$26.02 million, while machinery and spare-parts sales fell 18.3% and 55.0% to HK$1.58 million and HK$0.70 million, respectively.
Balance sheet and liquidity • Total assets stood at HK$464.23 million; net assets improved to HK$42.28 million (31 Dec 2025: HK$38.51 million). • Cash and cash equivalents increased to HK$9.82 million (31 Dec 2025: HK$6.00 million). • Net current liabilities narrowed slightly to HK$243.28 million. • Total debts (borrowings, other loans and lease liabilities) declined, lowering the gearing ratio to 3.9× equity (31 Dec 2025: 4.7×). • Capital expenditure totalled HK$13.61 million, primarily for tower cranes and right-of-use assets, versus HK$41.65 million a year earlier.
Strategic developments and outlook Management expects continued infrastructure momentum in Singapore—supported by projects such as Changi Airport Terminal 5 and expanding high-tech manufacturing—to underpin demand for high-specification tower cranes, albeit with pressure on rental yields due to intensified competition. In Hong Kong, planned public works averaging HK$128 billion annually and a gradual property-market recovery are anticipated to revive equipment demand. The Group is focusing on maintaining utilisation, tightening cost controls and advancing digital-construction solutions, including the “Smart Site Safety System” and an AI-driven collaboration with Pinming Technology.
Post-period events • Proposal to rename the company “Kaisacore Group Limited” (Chinese name: 佳芯科技集團有限公司), subject to shareholder and regulatory approval. • Board approval to seek shareholder consent for a new share scheme aimed at staff and management incentives.
No interim dividend was proposed, and no material contingent liabilities or additional significant investments were reported.
