On June 30, Air China (00753.HK) fell 3.61% in regular trading, trading at HKD 4.27/share, with turnover of HKD 55.76 million.
The airlines sector came under broad selling pressure, with China Eastern Airlines down 4.17%, China Southern Airlines down 1.44%, and Cathay Pacific down 0.7%. Institutions have noted that the aviation sector remains in an expectation-repair phase, with elevated oil prices continuing to erode profitability and short-term passenger traffic declines widening.
Additionally, the company recently completed a roughly RMB 20 billion A-share private placement, issuing approximately 3.04 billion new shares at RMB 6.57 per share to parent China National Aviation Holding. The issuance expanded total issued share capital by approximately 24.37%, creating near-term dilution pressure on per-share metrics and weighing on stock price sentiment.
On the positive side, Air China signed a joint venture cooperation memorandum of understanding with Singapore Airlines on June 29, aiming to optimize schedules, expand codeshare arrangements, and deepen collaboration in ground handling and in-flight services.
