0912 GMT - Geely Automobile may post higher net profit this year, after core net profit jumped 74% in 2023, UOB Kay Hian analysts write in a research note.

Geely could hit 2.15 million EV unit sales in 2025 on a strong product pipeline and higher exports, they add. UOB KH upgrades the stock to buy from sell and raises its target price to HK$11.00 from HK$6.00. Shares closed 3.5% lower at HK$8.88. (kimberley.kao@wsj.com)
