KB LAMINATES (01888) saw its stock price soar 5.41% during intraday trading on Tuesday, reflecting strong investor sentiment following the release of impressive financial results and positive analyst commentary.
The surge comes after the company reported exceptional 2025 financial performance, with full-year revenue reaching HKD 20.40 billion (up 10.0% year-on-year) and net profit surging 83.6% to HKD 2.442 billion. EB SECURITIES responded by raising its profit forecasts for 2026 and 2027 by 28% and 26% respectively, while maintaining a "Buy" rating on the stock.
Further supporting the price increase are industry-wide factors, including multiple price hikes for copper-clad laminate products across the sector, with KB LAMINATES itself implementing a 10% price increase effective March 10. The company's strong supply chain stability, cost control capabilities, and expansion plans with new production capacities scheduled for 2026 also contribute to the positive outlook.
