On August 28, WEICHAI POWER rose 4.11% in regular trading, trading at HK$31.36/share, with turnover of HK$76.32 million. The stock rebounded sharply following the release of robust first-half results the prior evening.
On August 27, the company disclosed its H1 interim results: revenue reached RMB 123.163 billion, up 8.85% year-over-year; net profit attributable to shareholders was RMB 7.701 billion, up 36.46%; operating profit surged 53.2% to RMB 11.17 billion; and operating cash flow climbed approximately 66% to RMB 11.349 billion. The board also approved an interim dividend of RMB 5.17 per 10 shares, totaling RMB 4.467 billion.

The stock had declined 3.18% on August 27 amid pre-earnings profit-taking, displaying typical buy-the-rumor-sell-the-fact behavior. The strong earnings beat now appears to be attracting fresh buying interest, further supported by the upcoming inclusion in the Hang Seng Index effective September 7.
