Citi views CK ASSET's sale of minority stakes in the UK railway project and UK Power Networks positively, believing it demonstrates the group's profitability and signals a potential shift in capital allocation. The new projects are expected to support growth in contract sales in Hong Kong, although the office and retail markets in Hong Kong remain challenging Citigroup's research report indicates a positive view on CK ASSET (01113.HK) regarding the sale of a minority stake in the UK railway project and the transaction involving UK Power Networks (UKPN), believing it demonstrates the group's ability to profit from investments and signals a potential shift in capital reallocation priorities. Additionally, Citigroup has raised the pricing by 5% on the latest price list for the group's project "Blue Coast." The delayed launch of the "Victoria Blossom" project also seems to align with the current improving market conditions. This may imply that after CK ASSET made a provision of HKD 2.3 billion for the Wong Chuk Hang and Kai Tak projects, there is upward potential for development project profit margins. Furthermore, new projects expected to be launched this year include 21 Po Lo Road, Kam Tin, To Kwa Wan, and Yuen Long, which are anticipated to involve a total resource of HKD 23.7 billion, likely supporting year-on-year growth in contract sales in Hong Kong. In mainland China, Citigroup feels reassured by CK ASSET's gradual sales pace, believing the group is likely to maintain pricing power. Although the leasing market for office buildings in Hong Kong (with the expected rental rate of the Two International Finance Centre rising to 30%) and retail properties remains challenging, the rental market for overseas residential properties remains robust. Citigroup believes potential positive catalysts for the group may include the potential reinvestment in Hong Kong development properties (which Citigroup considers timely) or enhanced shareholder returns (dividends or share buybacks; proceeds from the sale of UKPN shares). The stock rating has been upgraded from "Neutral" to "Buy," with the target price raised from HKD 39 to HKD 54.55 ### Related Stocks - [01113.HK - CK ASSET](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/01113.HK.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 早盘趋势|长实集团(1113.HK)低位盘整企稳,蓝筹地产受益政策预期 | 长实集团(1113.HK)昨日盘中低位吸引部分资金试探布局,受地产板块政策宽松预期提振,蓝筹股避险属性渐受青睐。盘面交投依旧谨慎,成交量未见持续提升,显示市场操作多观望。短周期技术表现有所回暖,龙头地产存在阶段支撑,但板块高低切换和流动性分 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/271315081.md) | | 英伟达财报如此 “炸裂”,但为何市场 “冷眼相待”? | 英伟达已连续 14 个季度营收超出预期,当超预期成为常态,光是业绩好已经远远不够了。市场焦点已转向对 AI 需求可持续性以及英伟达本身供给约束的焦虑,需求侧的巨额长单也因为与客户存在交叉持股而招致批评。此外,尽管英伟达数据中心业务增长强劲, | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276994346.md) | | 渣打财报透视:息差见顶与 “轻资本财富中介” 的重构 | 渣打集团刚刚交出了一份强劲的成绩单。 在宏观经济逆风与全球降息周期的背景下,渣打不仅提前整整一年跨过… | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276703416.md) | | 花旗:全球贸易重组 南亚和亚细安是主要赢家 \| 联合早报网 | 花旗银行发布报告指出,全球贸易正在经历根本转型,南亚和亚细安地区成为主要赢家。2022 年至 2025 年,中国在北美、南亚及亚细安的活跃子公司显著增加,墨西哥的中国子公司数量达三倍。尽管关税波动带来逆风,四分之三的供应链金融企业表示关税影 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276867512.md) | | 交行零售转型步入深水区 | 2 月 27 日,交通银行公告董事会已审议通过《关于深化零售板块体制机制改革的议案》; 决议的落地,意味着… | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277200927.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
