Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Lenovo Group (SEHK:992) has expanded its global footprint by doubling capacity at its U.S. plant and starting production at a new Saudi Arabia campus, in moves aimed at reducing tariff and geopolitical risks.

Lenovo Group’s recent manufacturing moves come on the back of very strong share price momentum, with a 30-day share price return of 30.37% and a year-to-date share price return of 213.72%, alongside a 1-year total shareholder return of 176.47% that points to investors reassessing both its growth prospects and its income appeal.
