Market Focus06-18

On June 18, Master Kong Holdings fell 3.02% in regular trading, trading at HKD 9.95 per share with turnover of approximately HKD 94.12 million, marking three consecutive trading days of weakness.

On the news front, escalating US-Iran tensions have driven international oil prices higher, causing a significant surge in PET prices — a core packaging material for beverages. Institutions noted that as high-priced PET procurement began landing in June, Master Kong's H2 beverage gross margins will face considerable pressure. Additionally, the beverage segment's fundamentals remain soft, with H1 beverage revenue declining 2.6% year-over-year and the core tea beverage category dropping 6.3%. The company's debt-to-asset ratio stands at 71.28%, drawing attention to financial leverage risks.

Master Kong Holdings is a leading Chinese food and beverage company primarily engaged in the manufacturing and sale of instant noodles and beverages, including ready-to-drink tea, carbonated drinks, juice, and packaged water.
