On June 18, Shanghai Electric (02727.HK) fell 3.08% in regular trading, trading at HKD 3.78/share, with turnover of HKD 67.69 million.

On the news front, Shanghai Electric announced on June 17 that its subsidiary Shenzhen Yinghe Technology plans to acquire 100% of Anwha Automation Engineering from controlling shareholder Shanghai Electric Holding Group via non-public agreement transfer for approximately RMB 204.3 million, constituting a related-party transaction. The target company recorded revenue of RMB 450 million in 2025 but net profit of only RMB 16.11 million, indicating weak profitability. The market has raised questions regarding the reasonableness of the transaction pricing.

The acquisition aims to complement Yinghe Technology's front- and mid-stage lithium battery equipment capabilities with Anwha's back-end integration technology, building full-process lithium battery manufacturing coverage. However, concerns persist over Shanghai Electric's balance sheet leverage at 75.5% and over 80% reliance on non-recurring gains for attributable net profit. Combined with ongoing profit-taking pressure following a prior rally on nuclear fusion concepts, the stock extended its weak trend. Within the Heavy Electrical Equipment sector, Harbin Electric fell 3.22% and Goldwind declined 2.21%, while Dongfang Electric rose 0.63%.
