GUANGDONG INV's net profit in 2025 grew by 48.2% YoY to $4.656 billion, mainly benefiting from the absence of related losses after the sale of GD LAND (00124.HK) in January 2025 and the repayment of $2.25 billion debt, reducing financial costs by $282 million, Citi Research noted.

Therefore, the broker added its target price for GUANGDONG INV from $8.8 to $9, with rating kept at Buy, and considered it as its top pick among Hong Kong utilities due to its forecasted dividend yield of 6.1% in 2026, the highest among peers.
