According to a research report from CLSA, CK ASSET (01113) has announced the signing of an agreement to sell a 20% stake in UK Power Networks to a single buyer. The transaction, which includes 40% participation from CK Infrastructure (01038) and 40% from Power Assets (00006), carries a base consideration of HK$22.15 billion. A potential gain of HK$8.4 billion is anticipated from the sale, which remains subject to regulatory approval. This potential gain from the unexpected sale is equivalent to 59% of the forecast net profit for the 2026 fiscal year. CLSA highlighted that CK ASSET has never distributed a special dividend since its listing. Proceeds from the HK$40 billion sale of The Center in 2017 were subsequently used for acquisitions, including UK office buildings (since sold) and infrastructure projects such as the 20% stake in UK Power Networks, opportunistic share buybacks, and a steady increase in dividends.
