  • The company is committed to shareholder returns, targeting a payout ratio of 35% and expecting dividends for fiscal year 2026 to be no less than HK$1.5 billion, with major shareholders planning to purchase up to HK$500 million in shares.
  • Fosun International Ltd (FOSUF) is actively unlocking value through asset spin-offs and public listings, including Sanya Atlantis and commercial real estate REITs, which could enhance portfolio transparency and valuation recovery.
