Macquarie published a research report stating that Ganfeng Lithium (01772.HK) recorded a net profit of RMB16.13 billion last year, close to the upper limit of its profit alert forecast. The net profit for the fourth quarter of last year was RMB16 billion, compared to a net loss of RMB14 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, mainly benefiting from the rise in lithium prices during the period.

The company plans to increase capital for its battery subsidiary to further expand its downstream battery business. The firm believes that the battery business will be another driver of revenue and profit growth beyond lithium. At the same time, the firm expects lithium prices to be supported, primarily due to the Chinese government's policy on energy storage system capacity tariffs, which is expected to enhance profitability and drive further construction of energy storage stations. Additionally, supply disruptions in Jiangxi and Zimbabwe are tightening supply.
