0117 GMT - China Resources Power still offers attractive yield despite near-term challenges, says Deutsche Bank's Gary Zhou in a note. The Chinese utilities company's 2025 full-year dividend beat consensus estimates, offering a payout ratio of around 40%. While the company faces near-term headwinds from lower market-based tariffs for thermal and renewable power this year, the 2025 dividend yield of 6.0% and estimated 2026 yield of 5.7% are among the highest among Chinese utilities, he says. "Over the long run, we believe the company, with a balanced fuel type portfolio, should benefit from growing AI-related power demand in China," he adds. DB maintains its buy rating and HK$23.00 target price. Shares last closed at HK$19.44.(megan.cheah@wsj.com)
