Huaan's profit doubles, buyback and rating upgrade support stock

Record first-half profit and dividend Huaan's first-half revenue rose 65% to 4.0 billion yuan and net profit doubled to 2.1 billion yuan, both records. It will pay a 0.1 yuan per share dividend. Strong earnings and cash flow make the stock more attractive to investors.
This is the core new fundamental driver of the stock's value.
Share buyback plan announced Huaan plans to buy back 100-200 million yuan of its own shares, part of a broader market stabilization effort. Buybacks reduce shares outstanding and signal management confidence, which can support the stock price.
Buybacks directly affect share supply and investor sentiment.
Credit rating upgraded to AAA Huaan's credit rating was raised from AA+ to AAA, which lowers its borrowing costs and improves access to funding. Cheaper financing helps the company grow its business and supports profitability.
A rating upgrade improves the company's financial flexibility and is a new positive event.
Lost sponsor role on Wanwei deal Huaan had to withdraw as sponsor for Wanwei High-Tech's private placement because its controlling shareholder holds a stake in Wanwei. This removes a fee-earning deal, but the impact is small relative to Huaan's overall business.
This is a new negative event that partially offsets the positive news.

Nomura's profit surges on trading boom and digital-asset expansion

Wholesale revenue running 30% higher Nomura said wholesale revenue is up over 30% year-on-year, led by equity products, as Tokyo Stock Exchange cash-equity turnover jumped 68% in 2026. That raises the odds Nomura beats the roughly flat 2.2 trillion yen revenue consensus, lifting the shares.
This is the first signal of a strong quarter and directly drives earnings expectations.
Record recurring revenue and 15.4% ROE in Q1 Nomura reported record recurring revenue of 59.2 billion yen and a 15.4% return on equity. Wealth management net revenue rose 9% to 145.4 billion yen, with record net inflows into recurring-revenue assets. Global markets revenue jumped 26%, led by a 41% surge in equities. This shows broad-based profit strength.
It confirms the strong quarter with record recurring revenue and high ROE, a key driver of the stock.
April–June net profit up 39% to 145.5 billion yen Nomura's net profit for the April–June quarter rose 39% year-on-year to 145.5 billion yen, beating expectations. All five major Japanese brokerages posted sharp profit gains, helped by rising interest rates, higher stock prices, and strong sales of investment products. This confirms a sector-wide upcycle.
The earnings beat is the headline number that directly moves the stock and validates the positive trend.
Digital-asset push: US trust charter and ZIG partnership Nomura's Laser Digital won conditional OCC approval for a US national trust bank charter, enabling institutional crypto custody. It also invested in crypto asset ZIG and will co-develop on-chain financial products for institutions. These moves expand future revenue but are early-stage and may take time to pay off.
It shows a new growth avenue in digital assets, though with longer-term impact.
