According to the company's 2026 third-quarter report, MCC recorded revenue of RMB 252.827 billion in the first three quarters, down 24.55% year-on-year, while net profit attributable to shareholders reached RMB 3.458 billion, down 12.91% year-on-year.

Huatai Securities believes that MCC's third-quarter profit exceeded its expectation of RMB 780 million, mainly due to a year-on-year stabilization in gross margin and a marked narrowing of impairment provisions.
Considering the company's position as a leading domestic metallurgical construction player, it is expected to benefit if macroeconomic demand improves in the future. The brokerage maintains its "Overweight" rating on the A-shares and "Buy" rating on the H-shares.
