Movement Alert｜KB LAMINATES Falls 3.53% in Regular Trading, Custody Transfer and Sector Weakness Weigh on Shares

On October 23, KB LAMINATES fell 3.53% in Regular Trading, trading at HK$35.52, with turnover of HK$617 million.

The move coincided with a disclosed custody transfer and broader weakness across electronic components names. Recent filings showed shares with market value of about HK$2.909 billion, equal to 2.27% of the company, were shifted on October 22, including 48.07 million shares transferred into Goldman Sachs Asia Securities and 59.55 million shares transferred out of Citibank.

Background developments were supportive but did not prevent the pullback. The company had announced its eighth price increase of the year on October 14, raising selling prices by 15% for laminates and PP using 2116-or-below thin glass cloth, citing strong demand and tight supply of upstream fiberglass cloth and yarn. Management and related parties had also recently increased holdings, but the stock remained pressured alongside peers including KINGBOARD HLDG, LUXSHARE ICT and CCTC.
