Meanwhile, recently listed AI PCB leader VGT (02476.HK)  +11.000 (+2.941%)   hit an intraday high of HKD390, marking a new post-listing high for its H shares. It is now trading at HKD386.8, up 11.99%, with turnover of HKD1.66 billion.

Citi said in a research report that it raised its earnings forecasts for KINGBOARD HLDG for 2026 to 2028 by 50% to 61% and lifted its TP from HKD48 to HKD65. Under the AI infrastructure investment boom, shortages of glass fiber, copper foil and copper clad laminates (CCL) have prompted the broker to raise its earnings forecasts for KB LAMINATES (01888.HK)  +2.480 (+5.576%)    Short selling $269.74M; Ratio 16.717%   . Citi expects KINGBOARD HLDG's earnings mix to tilt toward the laminates business, forecasting the segment's contribution to group net profit to surge from 38% in 2025 to 87% in 2028. The broker added that KINGBOARD HLDG's current valuation is not reasonable. If investors missed KB LAMINATES' strong rally in April, KINGBOARD HLDG would be a good catch-up choice, and it reiterated its Buy rating.
