CITIC earnings
MyStockButler's October 2026 analysis: CITIC reported stronger earnings in the six months to June 2026, with revenue, net income and diluted EPS all higher. The key watch is whether the full-year dividend decision reaches the 30.0% target.
What has CITIC guided for cash dividends?
CITIC’s clearest promise is to distribute 30.0% of annual profit attributable to ordinary shareholders as cash dividends. That profit is the amount belonging to CITIC Limited’s ordinary owners after other shareholders in subsidiaries receive their share.
| The period it covers | Low | High | The date it was given | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash dividend as a percentage of net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders | Year to Dec 2026 | 30.0% | 30.0% | Mar 27, 2026 |
What this means. The 30 percent dividend figure is a goal the company says it will try to reach, not a guaranteed payment.
Did CITIC keep its dividend promise?
CITIC met the stated minimum for 2025, but the retained capital makes its investment decisions just as important as its dividend.
What do CITIC's last eight reported periods show?
CITIC’s latest consolidated update shows stronger earnings, but the recovery is concentrated. In the six months to June 2026, revenue, net income and diluted EPS all increased, while revenue grew faster than ordinary-shareholder profit.
| 6 months to Jun 2026 | 6 months to Dec 2025 | 6 months to Jun 2025 | 6 months to Dec 2024 | 6 months to Jun 2024 | 6 months to Dec 2023 | 6 months to Jun 2023 | 6 months to Dec 2022 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 408,766 | 400,009 | 369,255 | 372,304 | 374,896 | 346,846 | 333,986 | 338,591 |
| Net income | 33,764 | 27,494 | 31,236 | 26,089 | 32,113 | 25,502 | 32,092 | 23,266 |
| EPS, diluted | 1.16 | 0.94 | 1.07 | 0.88 | 1.09 | 0.88 | 1.10 | 0.80 |
| Book value per share | 27.53 | 26.89 | 26.29 | 26.04 | 25.21 | 24.17 | 23.53 | 22.69 |
What this means. Revenue is not just money from selling products, because it also includes CITIC Bank income and gains from investments and derivatives.
What should investors watch in CITIC's next release?
The first fixed checkpoint is 17 November 2026, when CITIC’s interim dividend is payable. The larger test will be the full-year dividend decision: whether the total distribution reaches the 30.0% target while the group continues to fund its businesses.
