On August 24, KINGBOARD HLDG declined 3.63% in regular trading, trading at HK$45.12/share, with turnover of HK$105 million.
On the news front, the company held its board meeting on the same day to review interim results. The previously issued profit alert indicated first-half net profit exceeding HK$2.7 billion, up over 4% year-on-year, with the copper clad laminate segment profit surging over 200%. However, the investment business segment recorded a loss of approximately HK$500 million, partially offsetting core business growth.
The market had largely priced in the positive earnings ahead of the release, with the stock rallying 3.12% on August 21 in anticipation. Following a significant pullback in July and limited rebound momentum since, the stock exhibited a classic sell-the-news pattern. Sector peers KB LAMINATES fell 4.51%, while the broader Electronic Components sector traded under pressure, with SUNNY OPTICAL down 2.19% and VGT down 1.97%.
