On the news front, subsidiary KB Laminates reported interim net profit surging 209% to HK$2.887 billion, with July alone generating approximately HK$1.1 billion in profit, a record high. Following the August 24 earnings release, the stock had initially dropped over 6% in a classic sell-the-news reaction.

The copper-clad laminate segment delivered profit growth exceeding 200%, though partially offset by approximately HK$500 million in investment segment losses. An interim dividend of HK$0.73 per share was declared, up 6% from the prior year.
