Huang Hsiung Construction saw its revenue drop by half in 2025, reporting NT$6.07 billion compared to the previous year. Despite the challenging economic climate marked by inflation, credit controls, and rising construction costs, the company achieved a net profit of NT$681 million, distributing a cash dividend of NT$2.8 per share.
General Manager Liao Yu-hsiang expressed cautious optimism for the current year, citing Taiwan's strong economic fundamentals and persistent demand for inflation-resistant assets. However, he noted the current market's low transaction volume and urged the government to ease credit controls to stimulate normal market development.
The market's transaction volume has decreased, and the overall environment is still not good. We hope the government can adjust credit controls to allow the market to resume normal development.
While the company plans to slow its pace of new project launches in 2026, it remains committed to acquiring land in the Taipei and New Taipei regions for future endeavors. Key projects include "Huang Hsiung Paragon" in Banqiao, with a total value of NT$28 billion, and a pre-sale project in Xinzhuang.
Interestingly, Huang Hsiung's venture into the stock market has proven highly profitable. As of the end of May, the company had announced the disposal of shares in TSMC, Delta Electronics, and Nanya Technology, generating approximately NT$948 million in disposal gains. This figure surpasses the profits from its core construction business, prompting a low-key comment from spokesperson Wang Chi-hua that the company is merely exercising flexibility in capital allocation in line with government policy.
It's just to cooperate with government policy for flexible capital utilization.
