WAI YUEN TONG (00897) announced that the group expects its profit attributable to shareholders for the six months ending September 30, 2025, to decrease to no more than approximately HK$3 million, compared to HK$23.7 million for the same period in 2024. The anticipated decline in profit is primarily due to the combined effects of the following factors: 1) Weak consumer sentiment in the retail market during the reporting period, leading to a roughly 7% drop in revenue and consequently lower gross profit; 2) A significant decrease in net gains from property sales during the reporting period; 3) Reduced net fair value gains on investment properties. These negative impacts were partially offset by lower administrative expenses and financing costs during the reporting period.
