CLP Holdings Reports 6.63% Rise in Half-Year Profit Attributable to Shareholders, Reaching HK$5.997 Billion, with Interim Dividend of HK$0.63 Per Share

CLP Holdings (00002) has announced its interim results for the first half of 2026. The group recorded total revenue of HK$42.856 billion, remaining flat compared to the same period last year. Profit attributable to shareholders reached HK$5.997 billion, marking a 6.63% increase year-on-year. Earnings per share stood at HK$2.37, with an interim dividend of HK$0.63 per share declared.

In the first six months of 2026, the group's operating profit, before accounting for fair value changes, rose by 9.7% to HK$5.733 billion. This growth was primarily driven by robust contributions from its regulated business in Hong Kong, improved profitability across other business segments, and cost optimization initiatives within the corporate structure. Total profit for the six-month period increased to HK$5.997 billion, which includes items affecting comparability, mainly the gain from the sale of the Hagal power plant in India.

Consolidated revenue of HK$42.856 billion was broadly stable compared to the first half of 2025. This result was due to growth in revenue from Hong Kong and mainland China, which was largely offset by a decline in revenue from the EnergyAustralia business.
