AI TRENDS | Hangzhou Cable Issues Volatility Notice, Citing AI-Driven Fiber Demand and Industry Risks

Hangzhou Cable said it had noted heightened market and media attention on demand and pricing in the optical fiber and cable industry. According to Jin10, the company said global advances in artificial intelligence have lifted demand for related optical fiber and cable products, but overall industry development remains closely tied to factors such as global communications technology upgrades and downstream customers’ capital expenditure plans. The company said potential developments including policy adjustments, weaker-than-expected market demand, tight supply of key raw materials, or sharp price fluctuations could affect its production and operations, product costs, and profitability. After an internal review, Hangzhou Cable said its optical communications business generated revenue of 186.23 million yuan in the first quarter of 2026, accounting for 8.47% of the company’s total revenue for the period. The company urged investors to invest rationally and be mindful of risks.
