Jangho profit jumps, dividends paid, Middle East orders build

First-half contract wins slip on weak interior decoration New construction contracts signed in the first half fell 4.4% from a year earlier to about 13.1 billion yuan. Interior decoration and design work dropped 17.6%, a sign that domestic demand for the company's core fit-out business is soft and could weigh on future revenue.
It is the main demand-side negative and shows the order pipeline shrinking even as profits rose.
First-half profit up 34% with a cash dividend Revenue rose 15.9% to 10.8 billion yuan and net profit climbed 34.3% to 441 million yuan, with second-quarter profit up 88% from the first quarter. The company will pay 0.25 yuan per share in cash, about 283 million yuan, rewarding shareholders.
Strong earnings and a payout are the clearest positive forces on the stock's value.
Saudi transport hub curtain wall contract won A wholly owned subsidiary won a curtain wall contract for the Northwest Transportation Hub in Riyadh worth about 223 million yuan, roughly 1% of 2025 revenue. It shows the company can win work abroad as domestic decoration demand slows.
It is a concrete new overseas order that offsets weak domestic demand.
Dubai W Residences curtain wall contract won A subsidiary won the W Residences curtain wall project in Dubai for about 318 million yuan, roughly 1.5% of 2025 revenue. The company warned no formal contract is signed yet, so the deal and its revenue are not guaranteed.
It adds to the Middle East order book but carries an explicit execution risk.

Q3 202624 Jun – 10 Sep 2026

AI and reshoring demand support steel, but Chinese oversupply caps gains

AI infrastructure drives steel demand AI data centers need heavy structural steel for server racks, floors, and cooling. With 831 projects under construction globally, this new demand supports US HRC prices, especially for modern electric-arc producers like Nucor and Steel Dynamics.
This is a major new source of demand that lifts steel prices.
Capital shifts to real economy, boosting steel A strategist says US capitalism is moving from buybacks to building real assets like steel, copper, and power. This reshoring and supply-chain trend means more investment in steel capacity and higher demand for US HRC.
It signals a broad shift that increases steel demand and investment.
USMCA talks create tariff uncertainty US and Mexico will hold a fourth round of USMCA talks in September. Progress on steel trade is positive, but unresolved issues like Section 232 tariffs (50% on steel) and US content rules keep uncertainty high, which can sway steel prices both ways.
Trade policy directly affects steel flows and prices, and the outcome is unclear.
Chinese oversupply weighs on steel prices Thailand's construction material index shows steel prices fell 0.6% in August due to excess Chinese supply. This global glut, with projected excess capacity of 745 million tons by 2028, pressures US HRC prices by keeping a lid on global benchmarks.
It is a key counterweight that limits price gains from demand.
