Business
Oriental Watch Holdings Limited, an investment holding company incorporated in Bermuda, principally engages in the retail trading of luxury watches and clocks across the Greater China region. The Group distributes prestigious timepieces from leading Swiss and international brands including Rolex, Tudor, Bulgari, Breitling, Longines, TAG Heuer, Girard-Perregaux, Ulysse Nardin, Roger Dubuis, Gucci and Calvin Klein; it also provides watch repair and maintenance services through dedicated centers and holds investment properties alongside securities investments. Founded in 1961 with headquarters in Central, Hong Kong, the company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 1993 (stock code: 0398.HK) and operates over 40 retail points including boutiques such as Rolex and Tudor Boutique, Central Breitling Boutique, Elements Ulysse Nardin Boutique, and La Suisse Watch Company stores in prime locations across Hong Kong (11 outlets), Macau (2), Mainland China (25 covering major cities), and Taiwan (2), supplemented by online stores in Hong Kong and Mainland China. In recent periods, the Group entered into several new lease agreements and renewals for shops and offices with terms of 2 to 5 years to support boutique network expansion amid softening luxury demand; it incurred HK$13.3 million in property, plant and equipment additions and recognized HK$76.9 million in right-of-use asset modifications for strategic store optimizations during the six months ended 30 September 2025. Revenue declined 10.1% year-over-year to HK$1.62 billion in the first half of fiscal 2026 due to cautious consumer spending in luxury goods, particularly in Hong Kong (down 17.2%) and Mainland China (down 4.7%), prompting intensified cost controls that reduced lease-related expenses by 3.9% and inventory by 4.3% to HK$446 million. The company maintains a healthy balance sheet with net current assets of HK$1.33 billion, cash reserves of HK$979 million, zero bank debt, and declared an interim dividend of 5.3 HK cents per share plus a special dividend of 15.5 HK cents per share payable in January 2026, reflecting ongoing commitment to shareholder returns despite sector headwinds.
