CHINA TELECOM (00728.HK) saw a 0.5% YoY increase in 2025 earnings, shy of forecasts, according to a report from BOCI. Its service revenue grew by only 0.7% YoY, while its investment structure leaned further toward infrastructure investment.

Despite the impact of the VAT hike, the management remains confident in driving revenue and profit growth this year through Token, intelligent computing centers, and cloud security services.
