Dekon Food and Agriculture Group reported a modest rise in operating income to RMB 23.16 billion in 2025, driven by higher pig sales volumes and largely stable poultry volumes, but the company faced a sharp decline in profitability as total profit dropped to RMB 1.42 billion from RMB 3.27 billion. Net profit attributable to equity shareholders fell to RMB 1.43 billion and earnings per share more than halved, while the board also refrained from declaring a dividend for 2025, signaling tighter returns for investors despite audited results confirming operational expansion in volume terms. The group sold 10.83 million pigs in 2025, including more than 10.6 million to external customers and additional hogs routed through its own slaughterhouses, indicating further integration of its processing operations. Average selling prices for market hogs and poultry products declined year-on-year, particularly for hogs and yellow-feathered broilers, compressing margins and underscoring pricing pressure in China’s livestock sector even as Dekon maintained or expanded market presence through volume growth and stable production levels. The most recent analyst rating on (HK:2419) stock is a Buy with a HK$73.00 price target.
