CK Hutchison (0001) saw its underlying net profit rise 7.1 percent year on year to HK$22.3 billion in 2025, proposing a final dividend of HK$1.602, up 5.8 percent from a year earlier.
The full-year dividend was HK$2.312, rising 5 percent from last year.
Its net profit fell by nearly 30.7 percent to HK$11.8 billion, dragged down by HK$10.9 billion one-time non-cash loss and related impacts from the merger of its UK telecommunications business with Vodafone UK.
The conglomerate's revenue grew 6 percent to HK$507.3 billion, of which the retail business rose by 10 percent to HK$209.3 billion.
Revenue generated from the ports and related services advanced by 8 percent to HK$48.9 billion, while income created from CK Hutchison Group Telecom increased 15 percent to HK$101.3 billion.
Chairman Victor Li Tzar-kuoi said increasingly complex geopolitics and rapid technological advancements will bring disruptive changes, while numerous mergers and acquisitions opportunities are expected to emerge.
CK Hutchison's diversified global portfolio allows for more manageable risk control, where macro challenges affecting some operations may be offset by growth in others, backed by robust financial strength and cash flow, he added.
