Air China's profit growth to slow

The paper, citing a source familiar with the transaction, said Air China aimed to sell a 30-percent-stake in an offering planned for mid-December.

The company would become the last of China’s three major airlines to sell shares amid increasing competition in one of the world’s most promising aviation markets.

The paper said Air China was expected to list its shares on exchanges in Hong Kong and London and to raise between US$750 million and 1 billion.

It plans to use money from the sale to expand its fleet and repay debt. Air China has 136 aircraft serving 34 international and 69 domestic destinations.

However Air China will see its earnings growth slow to about 2 percent for the next two years after jumping 13 times in 2004, according to a research report by one of its sponsors.

The jump in this year’s profits, which the report forecast would reach 2.29 billion yuan (US$276.6 million), comes after the SARS outbreak battered earnings in 2003.

“We expect growth to slow in 2005, with yields coming under modest pressure as we expect industry-wide capacity growth to pick up slightly,” IPO sponsor Merrill Lynch wrote.
