SINGAPORE - Shares of Yangzijiang Shipbuilding soared on Aug 7, after the mainboard-listed company posted a record net profit for the first half of 2025. The stock rallied as much as 11 per cent to $2.92 after its results announcement, and was up 7.6 per cent at $2.83 at the midday trading break. A hefty 69.2 million shares changed hands. Yangzijiang saw a 36,7 per cent jump in net profit to 4.18 billion yuan (S$748 million) for the six months ended June 30, from 3.06 billion yuan in the year-ago period. This was despite a 1.3 per cent dip in first half revenue to 12.88 billion yuan, the company reported b efore the market opened on Aug 7 . The decline in revenue was mainly due to lower contributions from the shipbuilding segment, as the group has begun constructing oil tankers, which it said 'carry a lower average unit price than container ships'. Revenue from the shipping segment also fell 15.4 per cent year on year to 511.4 million yuan, following a drop in charter rates. But revenue from its other businesses - including trading, ship design services and investment properties - climbed 153.2 per cent year on year to 117.1 million yuan in the first half of FY2025.

This included 320 million yuan from Yangzi-Mitsui Shipbuilding, and 160 million yuan from Tsuneishi Zhoushan, in which the group completed a capital injection for a 34 per cent stake in the first quarter of 2025. Looking ahead, the company said the shipbuilding industry faces macroeconomic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions in the near term. Global shipbuilding contracted 54 per cent year on year in the first half of 2025, primarily due to growing concerns over the impact of the US tariffs on global trade volumes. Additionally, proposed US port fees have prompted shipowners to seek alternatives, though limited capacity outside China remains a constraint, the Chinese shipbuilder said. Yangzijiang, however, remains 'cautiously optimistic', given its outstanding orderbook. During the first half year, the group secured contracts amounting to US$537.2 million (S$640.5 million) for 14 vessels, with about 85 per cent for container ships. This raised the group's total outstanding order book to US$23.2 billion for delivery through 2029 and beyond. It expects improved market sentiment and clearer tariff progression in the second half of 2025 to support new orders, and is confident of filling its remaining delivery slots for 2028 and 2029, which largely comprise small to mid-sized vessels.

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding posts record earnings of 4.2 billion yuan for H1
[SINGAPORE] Yangzijiang Shipbuilding posted a record-high net profit of 4.2 billion yuan (S$752.6 million) for the six months ended Jun 30, 2025, marking a 36.7 per cent surge from 3.1 billion yuan for the same period a year earlier. This comes as an associated company has started to contribute meaningfully. In a regulatory filing on Wednesday (Aug 6), the mainboard-listed shipbuilder posted a 1.3 per cent year-on-year drop in revenue for H1 FY2025, to 12.9 billion yuan.

There was also a decline in revenue for the shipping segment – down 15.4 per cent year on year to 511.4 million yuan – which Yangzijiang said was due to lower charter rates. However, other businesses, which include trading, ship design services and investment property, contributed 153.2 per cent higher revenue at 117.1 million yuan for H1.
