Market Focus06-10 11:40

On June 10, ENN Energy fell 3.07% in regular trading, trading at 50.6 HKD/share, with trading volume of 85.4 million HKD.

On the news front, Citi published a research report expressing a cautious stance toward China's natural gas distribution industry, citing that May natural gas consumption in China declined 3.5% year-over-year to 30.66 billion cubic meters. The bank expects limited sales volume growth for the full year. Citi maintains a \"Buy\" rating on ENN Energy primarily based on upside from its privatization potential, while assigning a \"Neutral\" rating to CR Gas.

Adding to the pressure, BOCI previously noted that ENN Energy has been the worst-performing Chinese gas distributor, with its share price declining approximately 25% year-to-date. Weak gas sales growth and rising international gas prices have formed dual headwinds. Slow progress on the company's restructuring has also triggered investor concerns about the potential collapse of the deal.

Within the Gas Utilities sector, the overall tone remained subdued. Among peers, CR Gas fell 0.47%, China Gas Holdings fell 1.01%, and DZUG fell 0.71%.
