Helium export ban, dividend pledge, and profit growth lift Hangyang

China's helium export ban boosts domestic gas pricing power China imposed temporary export controls on helium on July 10, sending industrial gas stocks including Hangyang to their daily limit. Helium is vital for semiconductors, and restricting exports keeps more supply at home, supporting higher prices and demand for domestic producers like Hangyang.
This regulatory shift directly benefits Hangyang's core industrial gas business and was the immediate trigger for the stock's surge.
Chairman proposes interim dividend of at least 30% of H1 profit On July 22, Hangyang's chairman proposed paying out at least 30% of first-half net profit as an interim dividend. This signals confidence in cash flow and a commitment to returning money to shareholders, which can attract income-focused investors and support the share price.
A concrete shareholder-return commitment is a new, company-specific catalyst that reassures investors about management's priorities.
First-half profit rises 17.55% on strong revenue growth Hangyang reported H1 2026 revenue up 18.63% to 8.69 billion yuan and net profit up 17.55% to 563 million yuan, with healthy operating cash flow. The results show the core business is growing steadily, giving fundamental support to the stock price.
Earnings growth is the most direct evidence of business health and underpins the stock's valuation.
Small investment opens door to nuclear fusion field Hangyang plans to invest 50 million yuan for a 0.66% stake in Shanghai Xinghuan Jueneng, entering the controllable nuclear fusion space. While tiny, it signals a long-term bet on a high-growth energy technology, which could add a speculative growth angle to the stock.
This is a new strategic move that diversifies Hangyang's story beyond traditional industrial gases.
