Bank of China International released a research report stating that it maintains a "Buy" rating for SUNNY OPTICAL, raising the 12-month target price from HKD 90 to HKD 100 based on a 24 times forecasted price-to-earnings ratio for 2026 (equivalent to a 1 times price-to-earnings growth rate). The bank has raised its earnings per share forecasts for SUNNY OPTICAL for 2025 and 2026 by 7% and 1% respectively, to reflect improvements in the smartphone and electric vehicle product mix. The bank noted that SUNNY OPTICAL's performance in the first half of 2025 exceeded expectations, primarily driven by a strong recovery in smartphone gross margins and continued growth in the electric vehicle and XR (extended reality) sectors.
