This represents more than a 600 per cent increase compared to a net profit after tax of US$79.5 million in the first half of 2024.The strong profit growth was primarily driven by increased copper production across all three copper mines, higher market prices for copper, gold, silver and zinc, as well as reduced unit costs at Las Bambas driven by higher copper production.“Over the first half of the year, our business delivered an outstanding operational and financial performance,” said Ivo Zhao, MMG’s CEO. “This result reflects the strength of our portfolio, the capability of our people, and the disciplined execution of our strategy.”Importantly, MMG’s safety performance improved with a total recordable injury frequency (TRIF) of 1.81 per million hours worked in the first half of 2025, an improvement compared to the full-year 2024 TRIF of 2.06. The significant events with energy exchange frequency (SEEEF) for the first half of 2025 remained consistent with the 2024 figure at 0.78 per million hours worked.Operationally, MMG achieved impressive copper sales and significantly improved production across all three of its copper assets, including a strong performance from Las Bambas and the ramp-up at Khoemacau and Kinsevere. Its Australian operations also maintained solid zinc production, despite navigating challenges including weather impacts, equipment reliability and lower grades due to mining sequence.Highlights include:Record first-half results for both EBITDA and EBIT, with EBITDA at US$1,539.9 million, representing a 98 per cent increase compared to the first half of 2024, and EBIT totalling US$1,058.8 million, an increase of 240 per cent over the same period.Net profit after tax was US$566.3 million, including a profit of US$340.0 million attributable to equity holders of the company.A 130 per cent increase in net cash flow from operations, totalling US$1,185.0 million, compared to the first half of 2024. This performance was mainly driven by increased copper sales and higher commodity prices.Balance sheet improvements, with record lows - since the acquisition of Las Bambas - in both net debt and gearing ratio. The Company’s net debt declined by US$903.3 million since the end of 2024, attributed to robust operational cash flow and the early repayment of US$500 million in Khoemacau Joint Venture Group borrowings. Gearing reduced from 41 per cent to 33 per cent over the first half of 2025.Record high total payable copper sales since 2018, reaching 237,651 tonnes in the first half of 2025.Las Bambas produced 210,637 tonnes of copper in copper concentrate in the first half of 2025, marking a 67 per cent increase compared to the same period in 2024. EBITDA reached a record high of US$1,310.5 million, representing a 122 per cent increase compared to the first half of 2024.“MMG’s balance sheet is in great shape – its strongest in 10 years - with debt reduction driven by higher profits and cash generation,” continued Mr Zhao. “Our ambition to become a top 10 global copper producer is within reach and we are well-positioned to achieve this through operational excellence, disciplined capital allocation, and a continued commitment to responsible mining.”Guidance for the year remains unchanged with total production aiming for a high end of 522,000 tonnes of copper and 240,000 tonnes of zinc. Las Bambas is expected to produce up to 400,000 tonnes of copper this year, assuming stable operating conditions and limited external disruptions.

HONG KONG, Aug 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Lilang Limited (“China Lilang” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”; stock code: 1234) today announced its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025.Mr. Wang Dong Xing, Chairman and Non-Executive Director of China Lilang, said: “In the first half of 2025, international trade environment became increasingly harsh and complex. During the period, consumer spending in the mainland gradually recovered, but consumers remained cautious about spending on non-essential goods. China Lilang prides a well-differentiated brand matrix that has enabled it to penetrate and have a strong foothold in the menswear market. It appealed to its target customer base through precise product positioning and channel strategies, and launched a number of ‘LILANZ’ and ‘LESS IS MORE’ brand products to meet the needs of the consumer market. In addition, the Group actively deployed omni-channel marketing to enhance the popularity of the Lilang brands and improve the efficiency of online and offline sales channels to boost overall sales and operational competence.”For the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Group’s revenue increased by 7.9% to RMB1,727 million. Among this, revenue of the smart causal collection and other collections urged 31.8%, mainly driven by strong performance in in-store sales of the smart casual collection and new retail business. The core collection recorded a slight decrease of 0.2%, primarily due to one-off revenue deduction resulting from the promotion of DTC business model in Shandong Province and Chongqing City.Gross profit margin increased by 0.2 percentage points year-on-year to 50.2%, mainly due to the increase in average unit price as a result of higher proportion of the direct-to-retail operation in sales revenue. Profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period was RMB242.5 million (2024 Interim: RMB280.1 million). Profit margin attributable to equity shareholders was 14.0%. Earnings per share were RMB20.2 cents.During the period, the Group maintained a healthy financial position with sufficient cash flow. The Board of Directors has recommended payment of an interim dividend of HK11 cents (2024 Interim: HK13 cents) per ordinary share and a special interim dividend of HK5 cents (2024 Interim: HK5 cents) per ordinary share, thereby maintaining a stable payout ratio.The Group diligently advanced its strategic transformation during the period, plus continued to implement its “Multi-brands and Internationalization” development strategy to expand business. The core collection “LILANZ” has continued to consolidate its competitive advantage in the traditional menswear market and successfully amplified its brand awareness and market share. The repurchase and transformation of distribution and agency rights in North-Eastern China and Jiangsu Province were completed last year. During the period, the Group has repurchased the operating rights from distributors in the entire Shandong province and Chongqing city and adopted the DTC model. The "LESS IS MORE" smart casual collection that targets younger consumers continued to operate in a fully direct-to-retail mode. The newly opened stores of the smart casual collection were mainly in South-Western China and Central and Southern China. As at 30 June 2025, there were 2,443 stores for the core collection and 331 stores for the smart casual collection.During the period, the Group continued to optimize its sales channels, opening new stores in shopping malls and outlet stores in prime locations as planned. By incorporating tech-savvy visual aesthetics and youthful, fashionable layouts, the Group has brought the brand’s“Simplicity but not Simple” philosophy to life, thereby enhancing its brand image and driving sales. As at June 30, 2025, the number of stores located in shopping malls rose to 957 (31 December 2024: 933), the store count of outlet stores increased to 121 (31 December 2024: 103), with a total of 2,774 retail stores.The Group completed strategic transformation of its new retail business, upgrading it from an inventory clearance channel into a major new product sales platform, which reported a remarkable 24.6% increase in revenue for the period. While continuing to strengthen its presence on established sales platforms like Tmall, JD.com and TikTok, the Group has also expanded into emerging channels such as Pinduoduo, Wechat Channels and Poizon, creating diversified online sales network all together. It has kept enhancing its e-commerce strategy and leveraged social media platforms such as Xiaohongshu and Weibo to keep releasing high-quality content. This approach has deepened its emotional connection with consumers and presented it with new business opportunities.In terms of“Multi-brands and Internationalization” development strategy, the business of “MUNSINGWEAR” was successfully handed over to the Group in the first half of the year. The Group plans to open its first batch of physical stores in the second half of the year. The Group has opened its first store in Malaysia, which started trial operation in May, marking a significant step in overseas expansion.For the research, development and innovation and brand marketing, the Group is committed to achieving breakthroughs in fabrics, craftsmanship and technologies by pursuing proprietary research and development across its industrial chain, with the goal of enhancing the brand's core competitive advantages. During the period, the Group’s original durable white non-iron shirts, “Water Repellent Down 3.0” and the wash-resistant polo shirts have obtained multiple certifications for their anti-wrinkle, quick-drying, and wash-resistant features, successfully driving sales growth. To step up brand transformation aiming at youth consumers, the Group has harnessed celebrity influence, collaborated with cultural IPs, and employed immersive marketing tactics to engage consumers across various age groups and city tiers.Looking ahead to the second half of 2025, the development of domestic consumer market continues to be challenging. As an industry leader, China Lilang will press on with applying its strengths, following shifts in the consumer market and technological advancement, to promote transformation and to enhance brand influence, achieving sustainable sales and profit growth.In the second half year, the Group will continue to push forward with transformation. It will continue to capitalize on the operational advantages of the DTC model in North- Eastern China, Jiangsu Province, Shandong Province and Chongqing City to achieve healthy expansion, tailoring implementation taking into account the specific conditions of each market to further achieve optimal operational performance. For the smart casual collection, which is operated entirely in the direct-to-retail mode, will have its development foundation strengthened to help maintain its strong development momentum. The Group expects the DTC model to unleash its potential further in the second half year and contribute to sales growth.On the other hand, the Group will continue to leverage the advantages of its sales channel reform, focusing on opening stores in prime locations in premium shopping malls in provincial capitals and prefecture-level cities, and closing the underperforming stores to achieve better overall store performance. At the same time, the Group will prudently expand the layout of outlet stores and increase the number of stores to speed up inventory clearance. The Group aims to achieve a net increase of 50-100 stores in 2025.To achieve both the online and offline development, the Group will accelerate its new retails business by leveraging various platforms to engage young customer groups and strengthen brand market penetration. By increasing brand exposure through multi-dimensional initiatives, the Group aims to increase online sales of new products, expecting a rise to 80% of total e-commerce sales. It will work on optimizing the respond time of its supply chain to meet customers’ needs, via including continuously upgrading its the smart logistics center.With a solid domestic foundation, the Group is confident of accelerating implementation of its “Multi-brands and Internationalization” development strategy. As a key project of its multi-brand strategy, "MUNSINGWEAR" will continue to focus on product development in the second half year to meet the needs of the new middle class for personalized, functional and sustainable fashion. For its overseas business, the Group will open more stores in Malaysia in the second half year to better tap the Malaysian market, as well as actively deploy plans to expand business coverage to other Southeast Asian markets. Furthermore, the Group will promote its brand popularity through collaboration with IPs, as well as enhancing interaction with consumers through precise social media marketing and membership programs to foster customer loyalty and capture bigger market share.Mr. Wang Dong Xing, Chairman of China Lilang, concluded: “While China's consumer market remains challenging, the Group maintains cautious optimism toward the retail sector given the government's implementation of multiple consumption-stimulus measures. The ‘LILANZ’ core collection and the ‘LESS IS MORE’ smart casual collection have both undergone innovative transformation, emerging with clearer positioning. This will enable the Group to enhance precision and efficiency in product development, design, marketing promotion and sales, and ultimately drive the long-term growth. On the other hand, as a steadfast practitioner of sustainable development, the Group has deeply embedded ESG principles into its corporate strategy, consistently driving green innovation and social shared value. During the period, we issued our first independently compiled ESG report titled "Creat a Better Life Together" and formally established an ESG Management Committee, integrating ESG governance into strategic planning and core values – demonstrating our commitment to long-term value creation.

From “Showmanship” to “Real Work”: An Industry Turning PointThis year’s WRC marked a notable shift from static displays to high levels of dynamic demonstrations and scenario-based interaction. The focus has moved beyond single metrics such as speed and precision toward capabilities like generalization, high dynamic stability, and dexterous manipulation. This evolution is driven by advances in algorithms and computing power, as well as the maturation of the supply chain. Rapid iteration in critical components such as joints, tactile sensors, and lightweight structures has enabled OEMs to showcase deployable, interactive functional scenarios directly on-site.2. Capital Boom Meets Deployment Surge: Ecosystem Advantages EmergeIn July and August, robotics financing activity surged, with multiple companies less than three years old securing funding rounds exceeding RMB 100 million, and some even preparing for IPOs. This “early-stage companies entering capital markets” trend reflects rising confidence in commercialization. At the same time, hardware-strong companies are expanding into diverse applications ranging from factories to theme parks, sports events, and cultural tourism, while companies with advanced “robot brain” capabilities are accelerating deployment in high-value industrial and logistics sectors.Amid this trend, Shoucheng Holdings leverages its dual advantage of “investment + scenario” to not only identify promising targets in the primary market but also embed portfolio technologies into real-world settings via its smart transportation, industrial park, and infrastructure operations, creating commercial closed loops. For example, portfolio company Wanxun Technology’s autonomous charging robot has already been deployed in Shoucheng-operated parking facilities, transitioning from concept to scaled commercial operations.3. From the Year of Humanoids to the Year of DeliveryAt WRC 2025, humanoid robots shifted from being purely “attention-grabbing” to competing on order volumes and delivery capabilities. Industry investors widely expect 2025–2026 to be the “Year of Delivery,” where companies achieving scaled deployments in real-world scenarios first will gain both valuation and market share advantages. Shoucheng Holdings has also made its strategic stance clear: future competition will be not only about technological leadership but also about value chain collaboration, supply chain resilience, and business model validation.As the industry advances toward scaled applications, Shoucheng Holdings’ ecosystem advantage will become increasingly evident—continuously empowering portfolio companies on the capital side while providing real-world scenarios and commercialization pathways on the operational side, accelerating the robotics industry’s journey from “lab prototypes” to “mass delivery,” and ultimately feeding value back into the capital markets.Posted by All Way Success Company Limited for Shoucheng Holdings www.shouchengholdings.com [HKSE:0697, FRA:SHVA, OTCPK:SHNHF] Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Aug 11, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Cryofocus Medtech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("Cryofocus" or the "Company," Stock Code: 6922.HK), a global innovator in minimally invasive interventional cryotherapy, last friday announced its unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The Company demonstrated robust growth momentum and significant operational optimization during the reporting period, with key financial metrics delivering exceptional performance. Notably, its respiratory intervention product portfolio fueled a substantial revenue surge, marking accelerated commercialization progress.Respiratory Intervention Products Emerge as Core Growth Engine, Highlighting Global Competitive EdgeThe Company recorded revenue of RMB51.1 million for the first half of 2025, a 162.4% increase from RMB19.5 million in the same period of 2024, setting a new historical high. This growth was primarily attributable to the strategic focus on respiratory intervention products entering a harvest phase: The Malignant Stenosis Cryoablation System, approved by China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in March 2025, and the previously commercialized Cryoadhesion System, experienced rapid sales expansion, becoming the dominant revenue drivers. Additionally, the distribution partnership with Boston Scientific’s China affiliate, BSC International Medical Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“BSC”), contributed significant incremental revenue from other respiratory intervention products in mainland China.Of particular significance, the Company’s Asthma Cryoablation System received "Breakthrough Medical Device" designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) – the first such international recognition for a Chinese enterprise in the respiratory interventional cryotherapy field – laying a foundation for global market expansion.Cryofocus has established a highly competitive respiratory intervention portfolio addressing critical indications, including malignant stenosis, benign stenosis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), peri-pulmonary nodules, chronic cough, and airway tuberculosis. Among these: The Malignant Stenosis Cryoablation System has been successfully commercialized in China; systems for asthma and COPD are in confirmatory clinical trials with expected approvals in 2026; products for cough, tuberculosis, and peri-pulmonary nodules are in various R&D stages; and the Cryoadhesion System (including disposable and re-sterilizable cryoprobes) is approved and marketed. These innovations mainly stem from Cryofocus’s two core technology platforms: unique liquid nitrogen-based cryoablation technology (utilizing liquid nitrogen as the cryogenic energy source) and advanced flexible catheter technology. This integrated platform enables deep low-temperature treatment, precise control, and minimally invasive intervention, offering superior therapeutic efficacy and safety while creating significant technological barriers for competitors.Platform Value Multiplies as Multi-Segment Strategy Accelerates CommercializationCryofocus’s core value extends beyond its respiratory pipeline, underpinned by its distinction as an innovative cryotherapy platform enterprise. Leveraging its liquid nitrogen and flexible catheter technologies, the Company has successfully expanded into multiple high-potential therapeutic areas:In the vascular intervention segment: The Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Cryoablation System (for atrial fibrillation treatment) was commercialized in China in September 2024. The Cryofocus Renal Denervation (Cryo-RDN) System (for hypertension treatment), granted FDA Breakthrough Device designation, is in confirmatory clinical trials. The Pulmonary Hypertension Cryoablation System is currently in the stage of pre-clinical study. The market space for all these related cardiovascular indications is very huge.In the Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) segment: The respiratory intervention portfolio, as detailed, is rich and leading. The cancer intervention portfolio includes the commercialized Bladder Cryoablation System; the Gastric Cryoablation System and Esophageal Cryospray System are in clinical trials targeting gastric and esophageal cancer markets.In non-cryotherapy products: Commercialized items such as the Pulmonary Nodule Localization Needle and Endoscopic Clip for Anastomosis, alongside pipeline products like the Atrial Fibrillation Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System and Anti-Gastroesophageal Reflux System, create complementary synergies.This "one-platform, multi-therapy" model endows Cryofocus with exceptional adaptability for indication expansion and pipeline sustainability. The Company currently boasts a robust portfolio of 23 products and candidates: 14 cryotherapy and 9 non-cryotherapy items, with 11 already commercialized. Such platform-based diversification is rare among single-therapy medical device firms, highlighting substantial long-term growth potential and risk resilience.Strong Financial Performance and Sustained Growth MomentumBeyond the revenue surge driven by respiratory products, Cryofocus’s interim results signal positive ongoing growth. The Company’s technological advantages further translated into financial resilience. Gross profit reached RMB34.3 million for the first half of 2025, up 124.5% year-on-year, with a solid gross profit margin of 67.1%. Enhanced R&D efficiency led to significantly reduced losses. R&D expenses optimized to RMB17.9 million (down 51.9% year-on-year), while the period loss narrowed 51.4% to RMB27.2 million, demonstrating a clear trend toward profitability. Cash reserves increased 40.1% from year-end 2024 to RMB63.7 million, providing a solid foundation for sustained R&D and market expansion.Revenue diversification and quality improved as high-value self-developed products (e.g., Malignant Stenosis Cryoablation System) launched and scaled, complemented by deepening collaboration with BSC. The significant reduction in R&D expenses reflects improved efficiency and reduced consumable needs as products advance, driven by optimized personnel costs and management enhancements. This establishes a sound framework for balancing innovation intensity with cost control.Furthermore, the Company increased investment in sales network development, with selling and distribution expenses rising 174.4% year-on-year to RMB9.2 million, underscoring proactive resource allocation to build marketing teams and promote newly launched products (e.g., Malignant Stenosis Cryoablation System), laying groundwork for future sales scale expansion.Global Peer Benchmark Highlights Valuation PotentialCryofocus’s technological strength in respiratory interventional cryotherapy, particularly in FDA-designated areas like asthma treatment, positions it competitively against global leaders.Benchmarked against Inspire Medical Systems (INSP) (focusing on OSA neurostimulation, differing in indication but similar in respiratory neuro-intervention): Inspire currently holds a market capitalization of US$2.279 billion and a trailing-twelve-month (TTM) P/E ratio of 44.28x. Cryofocus’s Asthma Cryoablation System similarly targets pulmonary vagal nerves via minimally invasive ablation, with an innovative pathway validated by FDA Breakthrough status. Yet, as a diversified platform innovator with a broad pipeline and multiple commercialized products, Cryofocus’s current Hong Kong market valuation (Inspire’s market cap is 12.8x Cryofocus’s) significantly trails Inspire’s.This substantial valuation gap, while influenced by factors such as differing markets (US vs. HK), stages of development (Inspire being profitable and established in the US market), and a single-product focus versus a platform model, nonetheless clearly underscores the significant upside potential in Cryofocus Medtech's current market valuation relative to its technological capabilities, the breadth of its product pipeline, and its potential for globalization breakthroughs. With the advancement of clinical progress for its respiratory intervention products (particularly the Asthma Cryoablation System COPD Cryospray System Peri-Pulmonary Nodule Cryoablation System), the clarification of overseas registration pathways, and the continued high-speed growth in its revenue scale, a market re-rating of its value represents a high-probability event. The current valuation level presents an attractive window of opportunity for investors bullish on the long-term prospects of the minimally-invasive interventional cryotherapy sector and the value inherent in a platform company model.Looking ahead, Cryofocus maintains a clear strategy: rapidly advance clinical development and commercialization of pipeline products; deepen focus on minimally invasive interventional cryotherapy while expanding the portfolio leveraging its core platforms; continuously invest in underlying and supporting technologies; and selectively expand global operations. The Company is steadily transitioning from R&D-driven to a dual-engine model integrating R&D and commercialization, advancing resolutely toward its vision of becoming a "global platform for minimally invasive interventional cryotherapy medical devices."

Both assets are core regional computing power resources, playing a vital role in supporting 5G, artificial intelligence, and big data applications.Industry experts note that the launch of data center REITs marks the first time that public REITs in China have covered the technology innovation infrastructure segment, facilitating more efficient allocation of computing resources and enhancing the capital market’s ability to serve the digital economy.Full-Chain Deployment: Building a Closed-Loop REITs EcosystemShoucheng’s involvement in the REITs market has long gone beyond single investments. Since becoming one of the largest strategic investors in China’s inaugural public REITs in 2021, the company has built a complete ecosystem covering “Pre-REITs industrial fund incubation — platform operations — public REITs exit — strategic placement investment.”Currently, Shoucheng’s REITs fund management scale exceeds RMB 30 billion, with investments spanning transportation hubs, urban renewal, green energy, and data centers. In 2025 alone, the company has invested in the Sunlon REIT and the Huadian REIT, and through the Beijing Pingzhun Infrastructure Real Estate Investment Fund, partnered with China Life Investment and Caixin Life Insurance to launch a RMB 10 billion Pingzhun Infrastructure Fund, further strengthening its position as a leading industrial capital player in the REITs market.Industrial Capital Advantage: Driving Sustainable Market DevelopmentAs an industrial capital investor, Shoucheng Holdings not only provides funding but also leverages its expertise in asset management, operations, and integration of intelligent infrastructure to enhance both the operational efficiency and long-term value of underlying assets. This “capital + operations” dual empowerment model differentiates the company from pure financial investors in the REITs market.Analysts believe that with the ongoing expansion of China’s public REITs market and the acceleration of securitization in emerging infrastructure such as data centers, Shoucheng Holdings is well-positioned to benefit from the convergence of “new tech infrastructure + REITs” and to consolidate its leadership in the sector.Posted by All Way Success Company Limited for Shoucheng Holdings www.shouchengholdings.com [HKSE:0697, FRA:SHVA, OTCPK:SHNHF] Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
