On November 2, AIA recorded an Intraday Rise of 3.12% in Regular Trading, trading at HK$77.75 with turnover of HK$609 million.
The move aligns with recent earnings-driven and event-driven developments: the company reported third-quarter value of new business of US$1.415 billion, down 5% at constant exchange rates, while September VONB rose more than 25% year over year, and management said it expects to exceed its 2023-2026 OPAT per share CAGR target of 9%-11%.
Recent broker commentary also helped support sentiment. Goldman Sachs maintained a Buy rating and HK$95 target price, saying the weak third-quarter VONB outcome was largely anticipated by the market. The broker highlighted a stronger protection mix in the agency channel and noted agency-channel VONB returned to strong growth in September, while expecting double-digit VONB growth to resume in the fourth quarter.
