We have improved operational efficiency by divesting underperforming assets and enhancing retained media resources. We also reacquired operating rights of high-potential media resources at competitive costs and streamlined our operations for better internal control. We continue to leverage our industry expertise to provide creative solutions that empower long-standing clients, especially in the dynamic mass consumption sector, to achieve brand breakthroughs with measurable results, strengthening our network and seizing new opportunities.”For the year ended 31 December 2024, despite a decline in revenue to RMB1,069.2 million due to a decrease in media resource inventory from optimization initiatives, gross profit was RMB306.7 million, with the gross margin improving by 6.8 percentage points from 21.9% in 2023 to 28.7%. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to RMB593.2 million.

For metro operations, the Group leveraged its expertise and market insights to secure more favorable terms when renewing key metro media resources such as Shenzhen Metro, which delivered solid results. Meanwhile, established assets such as Hangzhou Metro performed stably in line with expectations. Additionally, the growing prominence of high-speed rail as a preferred mode of travel has enhanced the advertising value at hubs such as Hong Kong’s West Kowloon Station and Kunming Railway Station, supported by steady passenger flows and the Group’s business synergies derived from the resources in the Greater China region. The billboard business continued to improve through the diversification of media formats, including the gradual improvement of billboard effectiveness through tailored adjustments.As for the performance of the Airports business, it recorded segment revenue of RMB358.3 million, gross profit of RMB124.5 million and a gross profit margin of 34.8%, representing a year-on-year increase of 8.2 percentage points. The improvement in profitability was driven by the optimization of the Group’s airport media portfolio through continuous resource rationalization, including the regained advertising and media contracts for Haikou Meilan International Airport, for which costs were substantially reduced. While the full operational restructuring is still ongoing, encouraging progress was made during the Year, confirming the effectiveness of the current strategy to improve returns.Regarding the Bus and Other businesses segment, it recorded revenue of RMB311.4 million, gross profit of RMB78.4 million and a gross profit margin of 25.2%, a year-on-year increase of 14.3 percentage points.

The group has fully leveraged its deep market insights, decades of expertise, and economies of scale, combining creativity to connect brands with audiences while prioritizing efficiency, rapid execution and cost-effectiveness.

For example, a telecom brand targeting tech-savvy, data-heavy mobile users leveraged the Group’s media resources across Singapore’s Thomson-East Coast Line via programmatic platforms. Coupled with the Group’s Weather Triggering technology, creatives dynamically switched between “sunny” and “rainy” versions based on real-time weather to complete the offline-to-online cycle, enabling the brand to chase away the rainy day blues by offering customers free data whenever it rained in Singapore. This real-time customization boosted engagement by aligning incentives with immediate scenarios, adding interactivity and playful relevance. These efforts not only enriched urban visual landscapes but also demonstrated the strategic balance between innovative impact and operational agility.ProspectsLooking ahead to 2025, supported by the Chinese government’s initiatives to boost domestic consumption, the Group aims to strengthen its partnership with sectors aligned with current consumption patterns. By harnessing its strategically located media resources across airports, metro systems, and high-speed rail networks, the Group will continue to deliver campaigns that link brand objectives with consumer trends, enabling the creation of targeted and innovative advertising solutions designed to broaden revenue streams and strengthen market position.For the longer term, the Group remains committed to refining its internal control and adopting prudent financial practices that mitigate risk and allow it to navigate the evolving business landscape. Meanwhile, the Group will continue to optimize its media portfolio through long-standing partnerships with major media resource owners, enhancing profitability while maintaining operational efficiency. These initiatives will be supported by organizational restructuring to better align with ever-changing market demands and opportunities.Mr. Lam concluded, “The year 2024 has highlighted a fundamental truth: challenges, when met with clarity and determination, can become catalysts for new beginnings. Innovation remains at the heart of our strategy as we push the boundaries of advertising technologies, optimizing campaigns and turning insights into impact. Building on our leadership in Greater China’s transport advertising sector, we will expand cross-media solutions that connect brands with evolving consumer demands.

The goals of the upcoming drill season are to continue to expand and build the resource to higher levels of confidence, to test newly identified targets to the northwest and east of the Deposit, and to find the source of the system that created the Hat Deposit.Details for the environmental sampling program are currently being finalized.

Our field crew, technical team and I are excited about the newly acquired information which will guide this year's efforts. Our goals are to find the porphyry system's source, to further advance the integrity of the resource estimate categories, to continue advancing environmental work and building stakeholder relationships. There are less than 90 drill holes at the Hat Project, and we have been able to show tremendous results. At the same time, it is very clear that there are many more opportunities to enhance the Hat Deposit that our team is eager to explore." Mr. Shirvani added: "The Company is continuing its dialogue with Her Excellency Sara Nasser Al-Thani of Qmission of Qatar to build a strong relationship to explore optimal opportunities for both sides. With the worldwide growing attention on critical minerals, by governments and major mining companies alike, we believe that the Company is a great position."Red Spring - 2025 Exploration ProgramPart of Doubleview's portfolio of projects is Red Spring, which is located in central BC, Canada. It is a copper-silver-gold project which in recent exploration programs showed elevated zinc values. With copper and zinc being elements that are listed as Critical Minerals by the Canadian Government, the Red Spring project merits a well-tailored exploration program. For this season an extensive ground IP program is planned which will be followed-up by drilling based on the IP results. The goal of the exploration program is to build on existing data and together with the new results, narrow down the potential deposit type. Currently the two potential deposit types in focus for the project are sediment hosted copper-silver deposits and Eskay Creek type deposits.Doubleview maintains a website at www.doubleview.ca.Qualified Persons:Erik Ostensoe, P.
