CHINA STARCH (03838) has announced its financial results for the year 2025. The company reported revenue of approximately RMB 10.058 billion, representing a decrease of 11.9% compared to the previous year. Profit attributable to shareholders was approximately RMB 185 million, a significant decline of 61.7% year-on-year. Basic earnings per share stood at RMB 0.031. The Board has proposed a final dividend of HK 0.98 cents per share.
According to the announcement, the decrease in revenue was primarily due to reduced output from the Linqing production base. This was a result of the dismantling of one corn starch production line to facilitate expansion-related construction work. Furthermore, during the fiscal year under review, the market prices for the majority of the Group's key products experienced a decline.
