Hong Kong’s CK Infrastructure (1038) expects little direct impact from tariffs and remains cautiously optimistic about its business prospects, says chairman Victor Li Tzar-kuoi.
“Most of the group’s businesses are regulated, which makes them relatively stable,” Li said on Wednesday.
He added that CK Infrastructure’s total shareholder return from early 2024 through May 2025 has reached about 28 percent, reflecting continued investor support for the company’s resilient business model. But he warned that the company’s share price will remain subject to many external factors.
Meanwhile, CK Infrastructure's cash on hand as of end-2024 was around HK$8 billion, while the company's net debt to net total capital ratio stood at a healthy 7.8 percent, according to the chairman. “We are in a very good position to capture opportunities for growth and acquisitions,” Li said.
The company completed a secondary listing on the London Stock Exchange on August 2024, a move that Li said could broaden financing channels and support potential major acquisitions in the future.
