Laopu Gold Seen to Benefit From Strong Lunar New Year Demand

Dow Jones01-09

Laopu Gold's outlook this year appears bright, prompting Citi analysts to place the stock on a 30-day positive catalyst watch ahead of what they expect to be strong Lunar New Year sales.

Customers appear to have absorbed Laopu's product price increases, helped by industrywide adjustments and gold's rebound since December, the analysts say in a note.

They expect the Chinese jewelry company's elevated profitability to persist through 2026, citing a recovery in gross margin to above 40% since November and the potential for further price adjustments after the Lunar New Year.

Citi projects revenue and net profit rose 224% in 2025 and reiterates its buy rating and HK$1,119.00 target price.

Shares rise 7.2% to HK$669.50.
