AIA Group (1299 HK): 2025: Upbeat Shareholder Returns; Strong Momentum...
AIA’s 2025 VONB growth of 17% yoy was slightly below our expectation due to lower-than-expected sales growth in Mainland China and Thailand. That said, management noted the strong ytd VONB momentum in the Mainland China and Hong Kong markets. AIA announced a total share buyback of US$1.7b, implying a shareholder return yield of 4% for 2025. AIA also disclosed its US$3.3b private credit exposure (2% of total non-par and surplus assets) to ease market concerns. Maintain BUY. Target price: HK$109.0...

Top Stories Sector Update | Automobile As of mid-Feb 26, over 20 Chinese provinces and cities have announced 2026 vehicle purchase subsidy schemes, aligning with the national policy that has shifted to percentage-based subsidies (favouring mid-range to high-end vehicles) from 2025’s fixed amounts. This supports premium segments and market stability but may not fully counter the new 5% EV tax. 2026 sales forecasts: PV ‒ 30.4m units (+3% yoy); PEV ‒ 18.2m units (+19% yoy). Maintain MARKET WEIGHT. ...

AIA Group (1299 HK): Eyeing Solid 2025 Results.
Despite some pullback in Hong Kong and Thailand, we still expect AIA to deliver a 16% VONB growth in 4Q25, bringing full-year VONB growth to 19%. EV per share is projected to grow 13%, thanks to a solid VONB contribution and favourable macro tailwinds. We also foresee OPAT per share rising 12% yoy, on track to achieve management’s growth target. Maintain BUY with a higher target price of HK$109.00 following the positive revision of our VONB and EV forecasts.

Regional Strategy: Alpha Picks - December 2025
Greater China Strategy | Alpha Picks: December Conviction Calls Market consolidation slowed in November as expectations of a 25bp Fed cut buoyed sentiment. The HSI and MSCI China fell 0.2% and 2.4% mom respectively amid weak data and limited catalysts. While the upcoming Economic Work Conference may offer a catalyst to end this phase, we remain cautious, preferring defensives and oversold names. We add BeOne Medicines, HKEX, NetEase and Plover Bay to BUY, take profit on AIA, and cut losses on Ja...

AIA’s share price reacted positively to the strong VONB delivery in 3Q25. We estimate AIA China could deliver high teens VONB growth annually in 2025-30, underpinned by its ambitious target of 40% CAGR in VONB growth from new geographies. Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s VONB momentum may ease in 4Q25 due to front-loaded demand but the underlying structural drivers of demand remain intact. Maintain BUY with a higher target price of HK$102.00 as we roll over our valuation base to 2026.

AIA Group (1299 HK): 1H25: In-line VONB growth; strong OPAT beat.
AIA’s 1H25 VONB growth was in line with our expectation, mainly driven by solid growth in Thailand, Hong Kong and Singapore. Although AIA China still reported negative VONB growth due to assumption changes, margin expansion and strong growth targets in new regions will restore investor confidence in its growth story. In addition, OPAT growth was a solid beat, supported by higher CSM release and improved operating variances. Maintain BUY. Target price: HK$91.00.
