Net profit was 1.1 billion yuan, up 3% year on year, but lower than the bank's forecast of 1.2 billion 14%, mainly due to high R&D expenses and exchange losses. After considering the results for the second quarter, the bank lowered its profit forecast for 2026 to 28 by 5%, 4% and 3%, respectively, due to an increase in operating expenses; the target price was lowered from HK$44 to HK$43, reflecting the revised profit forecast and reaffirming the “neutral” rating.
