Pakistan’s First EV Charging Corridor Announced

How BYD’s Pakistan Entry Could Impact HUBCO Shares on PSX
The launch of BYD electric vehicles in Pakistan — backed locally by Mega Motor Company, in which The Hub Power Company Limited (HUBCO) has a significant stake — may offer a long-term growth catalyst for HUBCO’s stock (PSX: HUBC). HUBCO, through its subsidiary Hub Power Holdings Limited, holds a 50 % stake in Mega Motor Company under a shareholders’ agreement with Mega Conglomerate, positioning it as a key partner in bringing BYD EVs, including the newly introduced Sealion 7 and Atto 2, to the domestic market. Analysts have previously suggested that successful EV sales and rollout of nationwide charging infrastructure could potentially add to HUBCO’s bottom line, with sensitivity estimates indicating an earnings impact of approximately Rs 2.1 to Rs 4.3 per share under certain sales projections, which could positively influence investor sentiment over time. However, the near-term impact on HUBCO’s share price is likely to remain moderate, given the current early stage of electric vehicle adoption and the company’s diversified core business in power generation.
