On July 31, BEFAR GROUP rose 6.29% in regular trading, trading at HK$3.39/share, with turnover of approximately HK$30.84 million. The rebound follows a 5.41% pullback on July 28 after the company issued an unusual trading activity announcement.
On the news front, the company announced on July 19 that its 6N-grade (99.9999%) electronic-grade high-purity hydrogen fluoride gas had officially entered production via a 50-tonne-per-year filling line. The product is compatible with 28nm and below advanced semiconductor processes, a segment where China has long relied on imports, with overseas producers controlling approximately 80% of the global market. Following the July 27 abnormal trading disclosure — triggered by three consecutive sessions of cumulative gains exceeding 20% — the Hong Kong-listed shares saw profit-taking on July 28. The current move appears to reflect renewed capital interest after that short-term selling pressure was absorbed.
Notably, the company has repeatedly cautioned that the hydrogen fluoride product remains in the customer introduction phase, acceptance is uncertain, and it accounts for only a small proportion of revenue, with no expected material impact on financial performance.
