China Power International (2380 HK): A Look into the Positive Profit Alert

By Osbert Tang, CFA

  • China Power International (2380 HK) announced positive profit alert for FY22 at Rmb2.3-2.7bn, vs. Rmb516m losses in FY21. Such guidances are 14-34% ahead of current consensus forecasts.
  • Disposal and acquisition gains of Rmb2.15bn are the main contributors. As we see further clean energy injections and coal-fired disposals going forward, there is room for more such gains. 
  • Losses for core operations are Rmb300-700m in 2H22, a huge 73.5% YoY reduction. We will not read too much into HoH profitability retreat as this is due to hydropower seasonality.
