Wing On Company International Limited (289) anticipates a markedly decreased loss attributable to shareholders of approximately HK$328.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, compared to HK$919.1 million in 2024. According to management’s preliminary review, this improvement largely reflects a smaller net valuation loss on investment properties and a higher gain from the investment portfolio.

At the same time, underlying profit attributable to shareholders, which does not include net valuation losses on investment properties and related deferred tax, is expected to rise by about 42.6% to roughly HK$612.2 million, up from HK$429.3 million a year earlier. The Group’s investment portfolio is also projected to record a gain of around HK$454.9 million for 2025, compared to HK$222.5 million in 2024.

Income from investment properties in Hong Kong and Melbourne is expected to fall to about HK$296.0 million, from HK$366.1 million in the previous year, mainly owing to weaker demand for office rentals and reduced occupancy. The department stores operation is expected to post a loss of roughly HK$64.1 million, compared to HK$60.0 million in 2024, reflecting lower customer traffic and restrained consumer spending.

A finalised set of annual results for the year ended 31 December 2025 is scheduled for release in late March 2026. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the company’s shares.
