Hong Kong-listed group expects RMB1.5 billion to RMB1.8 billion in attributable profit as core businesses in healthcare, insurance and finance, and cultural tourism and consumption support the rebound.
Fosun International shares rose in early trading on July 30 after the company issued a positive profit alert, with the stock up 6.98% at HK$4.75 at press time after climbing more than 7% intraday. The company said profit attributable to parent company shareholders for the first half of 2026 is expected to reach about RMB1.5 billion to RMB1.8 billion, up about 127% to 172% from roughly RMB660 million a year earlier. Fosun said the increase was driven by the resilience of its core industries, improving operating quality and a significant rise in industrial operation profit from the same period last year. The group said it has been streamlining and strengthening operations by exiting non-core and non-strategic assets, reducing debt and concentrating resources on core businesses including pharmaceutical and healthcare, insurance and finance, and cultural tourism and consumption. The company added that its major business segments have maintained sound momentum since the start of 2026, helped in part by continued recovery in tourism and consumer activity. Fosun did not declare a dividend in its final results announced at the end of March 2026 and also did not pay an interim dividend for the comparable 2025 period, though it paid a final dividend of HK$0.02 per share in results announced at the end of March 2025.
