On September 9, YANKUANG ENERGY rose 3.28% in regular trading to HKD 13.86/share, with turnover of HKD 190 million. The stock extended the coal sector rebound that began on September 8, following a broad sell-off on September 7 when the stock fell approximately 4%.
The rally was supported by multiple catalysts. Safety supervision in the coal mining industry has reportedly expanded from private mines to state-owned enterprises, reinforcing expectations of sustained supply constraints. Qinhuangdao thermal coal prices had risen to RMB 962/ton as of early September, with the supply gap continuing to support pricing. Meanwhile, the company's strong interim results underpinned sentiment — first-half revenue reached RMB 75.647 billion, up 13.01% year-over-year, while net profit surged 47.75% to RMB 7.15 billion. Second-quarter standalone net profit jumped 55.33%, with gross margin improving 3.01 percentage points to 30.6%.
Within the Coal & Consumable Fuels sector, peers also advanced: KINETIC DEV up 3.93%, CGN MINING up 2.88%, CHINA SHENHUA up 2.5%, CHINA COAL up 2.1%, and YANCOAL AUS up 1.88%.
