VALUE PARTNERS (00806) Announces Profit Growth; expected that the company's attributable consolidated profit in 2025 will increase to approximately HK$660 million.

Value Partners (00806) announced that it is expected to achieve a consolidated profit attributable to owners of the company of approximately HK$660 million in the fiscal year 2025 (unaudited estimate), a significant increase from HK$31 million in 2024. According to the board of directors based on available information, the increase in revenue is largely due to the asset management scale increasing from US$5.1 billion as of December 31, 2024 to US$6.2 billion in 2025, driven mainly by the outstanding investment performance of managed funds, leading to a recognized performance fee income of approximately HK$370 million in the fiscal year 2025, a significant increase from HK$12 million in the same period last year. Furthermore, the group is expected to achieve a net fair value gain on investments of approximately HK$460 million in the fiscal year 2025, compared to approximately HK$132 million in the previous year. These gains primarily come from the group's long-term investment holdings (including initial investment capital, investments in subsidiary funds, investments in joint ventures, and other investments) all managed according to the group's value investment philosophy.
