Datang Power: profit jump, cheap funding, and clean-energy bets

First-half profit up 20.3%, fourth straight year of growth Datang Power's first-half 2026 net profit rose 20.3% to 5.509 billion yuan, with revenue up 2.1%. This is the fourth consecutive year of growth, showing the company is earning more from its power plants and supporting a higher share price.
The profit jump is the core fundamental driver behind the stock's value.
Cheap 2 billion yuan bond issue at 1.51% interest Datang Power raised 2 billion yuan by selling two-year notes at just 1.51% interest. Low borrowing costs cut the company's expenses, leaving more profit for shareholders and showing lenders see it as a safe borrower.
Low-cost financing directly improves profitability and financial health.
8 billion yuan share sale moves closer to approval Datang Power's plan to raise 8 billion yuan by issuing new shares was accepted by the Shanghai Stock Exchange in August and approved in October. The money would fund growth, but the deal still needs final regulatory sign-off, so some uncertainty remains.
The share issuance is a major capital event that could fund expansion but also dilute existing owners.
Clean energy and nuclear expansion, plus dividend Datang Power set up a clean energy unit in Fuzhou, plans to invest 628 million yuan more in nuclear projects, and will pay a cash dividend of 0.068 yuan per share. These moves shift the company toward greener power and return cash to shareholders.
Strategic investments and shareholder returns show long-term direction and confidence.
