HONG KONG, Aug 22, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Everbright Grand China Assets Limited ("Everbright Grand China" or the "Group"; HKEX stock code: 03699.HK), a subsidiary of China Everbright Group, principally engaged in the businesses of property leasing, property management and the sales of properties held for sale, announced its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025 ("Reporting Period").During the Reporting Period, revenue of the Group was approximately RMB24.5 million, representing an increase of approximately RMB0.6 million as compared with 2024. Profit attributable to equity shareholders was approximately RMB10.1 million, representing a decrease of approximately RMB1.3 million as compared with 2024, mainly attributable to the increase in the PRC income tax and deferred taxation. Gross profit was approximately RMB18.1 million, representing an increase of approximately RMB0.6 million as compared with 2024. Basic earnings per share of the Group was approximately RMB2.30 cents (2024: RMB2.59 cents). The Board declared an interim dividend of RMB0.73 cents (equivalent to HK0.80 cents) per ordinary share.Considering that the current operating environment remains relatively challenging, the Board declared an interim dividend of RMB0.73 cents (equivalent to HK0.80 cents) per ordinary share, as a token of appreciation to shareholders for their continuous support. In the second half of the year, the Company will decide on dividend distribution taking into account factors such as business development needs, financial performance and capital position, as well as performance growth, in order to bring the best return to the Company's shareholders and investors.In 2025, global economic environment continues to be characterized by uncertainties. Factors such as geopolitical risks, inflationary pressures and monetary policy adjustments in major economies around the world continue to affect market confidence and capital flows. Nevertheless, the overall stability of China’s economy, the gradual rebound of the consumer market and the continued optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure have provided a solid foundation for the development of the property management and leasing industry.For the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Group generated rental income of approximately RMB17.0 million (2024: RMB16.3 million), representing an increase of approximately RMB0.7 million as compared to the same period last year. The Company’s properties maintained an occupancy rate of approximately 81%, with the overall leasing market performing solidly, although newly signed rents declined compared to the previous period. In the face of downward pressure on rents, the Group will enhance its consolidated earning power by adding additional services to new leases to mitigate the impact of lower rents on overall revenue. This not only enriches the service offerings, but also helps to enhance customer stickiness and satisfaction, further consolidating the Group’s market competitiveness.During the period, revenue from the property management services was approximately RMB7.5 million (2024: RMB7.6 million), representing a decrease of approximately RMB0.1 million as compared to the same period last year. In terms of property portfolio strategy, the Group actively promotes tenant diversification to mitigate industry risks and adapt to the accelerated rise and fall of market environment of various industries. The Group’s existing properties are mainly concentrated in two core cities of Chengdu in Sichuan Province and Kunming in Yunnan Province, covering three commercial buildings, namely Everbright Financial Center, Everbright International Mansion and Ming Chang Building, with a total gross floor area of approximately 89,507 square meters. Benefiting from its excellent geographical location and sound property quality, it has attracted a large number of state-owned enterprises and large organizations to move in and has a solid leasing base. In the future, the Group will promote business diversification to enhance its overall risk-resistant capability.In terms of overseas investment, the Group is evaluating investment opportunities in international markets and is cautiously optimistic about overseas markets. Notwithstanding the volatility of the global economy, the Group will adhere to the principle of prudence and flexibility in its investment horizon to ensure the safety and profitability of its capital operations.As at 30 June 2025, The Group maintained cash and bank balances and bank deposits of approximately RMB236.2 million (31 December 2024: RMB231.5 million). The Group’s gearing ratio, being measured by the Group’s total liabilities over its total assets, was 18.6% (31 December 2024: 18.0%). The Group’s liquidity position was well-managed.Looking ahead to the second half of 2025, there are no new property management projects for the time being, despite favourable lease performance in the first half of the year. The Group is actively looking for suitable investment windows for its acquisition and investment plans which were delayed during the epidemic. With the active domestic economy and falling interest rates, the market’s willingness to invest has increased significantly.The Group will continue to deepen its digital transformation and actively utilize technology to promote the construction of intelligent properties and enhance operational efficiency and customer experience. Through technological empowerment, we optimize the allocation of human resources and service processes, enhance the level of intelligence and refinement of property management, and improve overall service quality and customer satisfaction.In addition, the Group will fully utilize the synergies with its parent company, China Everbright Group, and leverage on the popularity of the “Everbright” brand and its resource advantages to actively develop diversified value-added services, enrich its revenue structure and enhance its brand influence. In the face of industry restructuring and upgrading, the Group insists on stable operation, focuses on risk management and internal control, responds flexibly to changes in the macro-economy and policies, and continues to optimize its asset portfolio in order to enhance its risk-resistant capability.

HONG KONG, Aug 21, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Ta Yang Group Holdings Limited (“Ta Yang Group” or the “Group”; Stock Code: 1991), a well-established Hong Kong-listed company with nearly two decades of market presence, plans to further advance comprehensively into the Web 4.0 field and artificial intelligence (AI) industry. The Group will leverage AI Digital Humans as its subsequent growth engine, integrating a Real World Assets (RWA) tokenization operation platform with its inherent global traffic marketing operation system to strategically deploy across three trillion-dollar sectors: education, gaming, and big health.Against the backdrop of AI fueling a new wave of global digitization, AI is evolving from a “technological tool” to the “core of transformation” for many enterprises, driving industries to change work methods, overcome efficiency boundaries, and reshape value paradigms. IDC research indicates that for every dollar invested in generative AI, enterprises can achieve a return on investment of 3.7 times; companies deeply embracing AI have realized an average value return cycle of 13 months. Over 50% of organizations are accelerating customized AI application development, converting short-term gains into long-term competitive advantages. PwC forecasts that by 2030, AI will be a global economic game-changer, contributing up to US$15.7 trillion in growth and adding approximately 26.1% to China’s GDP. It is no surprise that AI Digital Humans, as the core multi-modal interactive carriers across industries, are gradually transitioning from concept to industrial implementation.In 2023, the Group invested in Jusheng Technology Co., Ltd. (“Jusheng Technology”), a professional digital marketing services company. Jusheng Technology plans to launch its independently developed AI Digital Humans, integrating leading technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), computer vision (CV), speech synthesis/recognition (TTS/STT), and compatible with the xAI Grok API. This AI Digital Human is at an industry-leading level and will be introduced to three major scenarios: education, gaming, and big health. This includes, but is not limited to: a “Virtual Teacher” AI Digital Human that can adjust speaking speed and learning difficulty in real time based on students’ attention; AI NPCs in games with personalized storylines that evolve based on different player choices; and a “Health Companion” AI Digital Human offering proactive suggestions based on individuals’ 24/7 health data such as heart rate and blood pressure. The Group plans a “phased iterative and gradual open” strategy, expecting to complete the core modules and underlying technology integration within six months, release AI Digital Human prototypes for the three scenarios in the following 6 to 18 months, and integrate these into Jusheng Technology’s marketing matrix. Between 18 and 36 months, the Group aims to open related APIs or SDKs and attract global developers to build an open ecosystem.Additionally, the Group intends to take advantage of this AI and digital transformation opportunity by using blockchain-based RWA to enable off-chain cash flow-generating asset projects to be captured in real time by AI Digital Humans and recorded in smart contracts. The Group will structure and issue layered packages of assets including educational copyrights and gaming IPs tailored to investors’ risk preferences. The target for this type of asset issuance is to pilot 10 high-quality projects in the first year, with plans to expand to 100 projects within three years, involving total asset values of HK$500 million. The Group aims to serve total asset values exceeding HK$5 billion within five years, establishing a multi-domain RWA asset operation platform.It is noteworthy that RWA transactions eliminate the need for traditional brokers or intermediaries, enabling a direct connection between the physical economy and virtual markets. According to Boston Consulting Group estimates, the RWA tokenization market could grow to a valuation of US$16 trillion by 2030, underscoring its vast market potential and promising outlook.Leveraging Jusheng Technology’s 20 years of cross-border marketing experience, Ta Yang will build a traffic system characterized by “comprehensive coverage + intelligent operation + scalable growth.” Jusheng Technology’s platforms cover overseas social media such as TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, as well as domestic channels like Douyin and WeChat Video Accounts, facilitating global user reach for customers. Utilizing AI technology, processes such as account nurturing, content generation, and targeted delivery will be fully automated to reduce operational costs and improve customer acquisition efficiency. Based on this, Ta Yang Group has a clear user growth target: to attract 1 million users in the first year to form an initial traffic pool, reach over 10 million users within three years, and build a native Web 4.0 traffic pool of hundreds of millions of users within five years, creating a “traffic – conversion – repurchase” cycle.Ms. Shi Qi, Chairlady of Ta Yang Group, stated, “Ta Yang is unveiling its AI transformation blueprint and formally entering the digital asset arena, marking a significant milestone for the Group and opening a new chapter for future development. We are grateful for investors’ recognition and confidence in our growth. As a well-established Hong Kong-listed company with nearly two decades of market history, this entry into the AI industry is expected to generate four types of revenue: income from AI Digital Human-driven traffic; revenue from providing AI+RWA one-stop financing consultancy services to SMEs; matchmaking fees related to RWA transactions, as well as digital advisory subscription fees; and multilingual, multicultural AI customer service and marketing outsourcing fees charged on a per-project or annual basis. Benefiting from its business model, Jusheng Technology has maintained positive cash flow in recent years, providing ample resources for this broader AI and digital transformation initiative. As the Group’s vision through Jusheng Technology in AI gradually materializes, we look forward to creating greater value and delivering promising returns for our shareholders.”About Ta Yang Group Holdings Limited (SEHK: 1991.HK)Ta Yang Group Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 1991) was established in 1991 and successfully listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited in 2007.

HONG KONG, Aug 20, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In the first half of 2025, the structural transformation of the pharmaceutical industry continued to deepen. Driven by favorable policies, product upgrades, and technological innovation, the vaccine industry maintained a stable and positive growth momentum. As a leading enterprise in China’s innovative vaccine sector, CanSino Biologics Inc.(Stock Code: 688185.SH, 6185.HK, "CanSinoBIO" or "the Company") once again delivered a solid performance.According to its 2025 interim report, CanSinoBIO achieved revenue of RMB 382 million in the first half, up 26% from a year earlier, extending its growth streak. Although the company has yet to turn profitable, losses have narrowed significantly, with the reduction exceeding 94% compared to the same period last year. This reflects improved operational quality and lays a solid foundation for steady full-year growth. With core products selling strongly and multiple pipeline programs advancing, CanSinoBIO’s long-term growth story is steadily taking shape.Meningococcal Vaccine Portfolio Continues to Scale Up, Unlocking Growth DriversCanSinoBIO’s two currently marketed meningococcal conjugate vaccines—the quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV4, Menhycia) and the bivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV2, Menphecia)—remain the company’s key revenue drivers. In particular, the sustained scaling-up of MCV4 demonstrates strong market competitiveness and is central to CanSinoBIO’s growth narrative.In 2024, Menhycia and Menphecia together generated nearly RMB 800 million in sales revenue, representing year-on-year growth of over 40%. In the first half of 2025, driven by deeper channel penetration and higher terminal market coverage, the sales of both vaccines continued to grow steadily. During the same period, the company’s meningococcal vaccine portfolio generated sales of over RMB 364 million, representing more than 38% year-on-year growth and providing a solid foundation for earnings.As the only MCV4 in China, Menhycia effectively covers four meningococcal serogroups—ACYW135—and leverages the high-safety CRM197 carrier protein technology. With outstanding clinical immunogenicity and safety, it has become the preferred choice for many parents seeking meningococcal vaccination for their children.Furthermore, Menhycia’s market potential is still being unlocked. The vaccine has been submitted to the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for an expanded age indication—from the current “children aged 3 months to 3 years (47 months)” to “children aged 3 months to 6 years (83 months).” If approved, this will directly broaden its coverage, strengthen penetration in the non-national immunization program market, and inject greater certainty into CanSinoBIO’s growth over the next two to three years, further consolidating the company’s leadership in the meningococcal vaccine field.iPneucia Officially Launched, Setting a New Benchmark for Differentiated Pneumococcal VaccineIn June, CanSinoBIO’s self-developed product—the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13, iPneucia)—was officially approved for market launch, marking the company’s entry into the RMB 10 billion-plus pneumococcal vaccine market and the beginning of a new growth cycle.Pneumococcal diseases remain a serious global public health concern, with particularly high morbidity and mortality rates among children under five years old. Addressing the remaining immunization gaps in China, the launch of iPneucia fills the domestic technological void in high-end 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, demonstrating CanSinoBIO’s leadership in differentiated innovation.Compared with existing competing products in the market, iPneucia achieves breakthroughs in three major dimensions. First, it offers more targeted protection, focusing on four high-risk serotypes—19F, 19A, 7F, and 3—that together account for over 60% of pneumococcal disease cases among Chinese children. Clinical trial data show that its Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) of antibodies is significantly higher than that of competing products. Second, in carrier protein technology, it adopts the globally pioneering CRM197+TT dual-carrier technology, overcoming the immune interference limitations of single-carrier vaccines. This both reduces the risk of immune suppression when co-administered with other vaccines and significantly enhances immunogenicity. Finally, in manufacturing safety, iPneucia uses an animal component–free fermentation process, reducing risks associated with animal-derived biological factors. It also employs no formaldehyde detoxification and adds no phenol during production, significantly improving vaccine safety.With these three advantages, iPneucia could potentially become another “ace” for CanSinoBIO in the infant bacterial vaccine market, following Menhycia. Notably, iPneucia shares a highly overlapping target population with Menhycia, creating strong channel synergies that will accelerate commercialization and enable the company to quickly capture market share in the RMB 10 billion-plus pneumococcal vaccine segment.Combination Vaccine Strategy Progresses SteadilyBeyond this, CanSinoBIO’s long-term potential lies in its continued build-out of a “Combination Vaccine” portfolio. Compared with traditional monovalent vaccines, multi-conjugate vaccine and polyvalent vaccine can prevent multiple diseases with a single injection, significantly improving vaccination efficiency and willingness—representing a key global direction in vaccine technology development.Following the quadrivalent vaccine Menhycia and multi-valent vaccine iPneucia, CanSinoBIO’s DTcP-Hib-MCV4 pentavalent vaccine—a representative combination vaccine—has attracted strong market attention. In February this year, it received clinical trial approval, marking a “zero-to-one” breakthrough for the company in the high-end combination vaccine sector.The DTcP-Hib-MCV4 pentavalent vaccine can simultaneously prevent pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) disease, and infection by the four meningococcal serogroups (ACYW135), achieving “protection against five diseases with a single shot”. This significantly reduces the number of injections and improves compliance among infants. More importantly, its core component Menhycia has already undergone commercial validation in China and enjoys a strong reputation, providing robust support for the combination vaccine’s development. This “point-to-surface” product upgrade logic enables CanSinoBIO to advance in the combination vaccine market with greater efficiency and confidence. With the government placing high importance on combination vaccine R&D and offering policy support, CanSinoBIO is well-positioned to capture this high-value market.R&D-Driven Growth with a Clear Product Pipeline and Strong ReservesWhile consolidating its existing market advantages, CanSinoBIO continues to strengthen its mid-to-long-term growth momentum through robust R&D capabilities and differentiated pipeline planning.Its DTcP for infants and young children has entered priority review and is expected to fill a domestic market gap. The Tdcp for people aged 6 years old and above has completed Phase III subject enrollment, enabling full life-cycle immunization coverage. The tetanus vaccine’s registration application has been accepted, and it is expected to offer superior safety and immunogenicity data compared with existing products. The Recombinant Poliomyelitis Vaccine, funded by Gates Foundation, has initiated clinical trials in Indonesia and has also received domestic clinical trial approval. Globally innovative Protein Based Pneumococcal Vaccine (PBPV) and inhaled tuberculosis vaccines have entered clinical research and proof-of-concept validation.The company has now built a rich pipeline covering multiple technology platforms and full life-cycle segments, including meningococcal vaccines, pneumococcal vaccines, diphtheria tetanus pertussis vaccine, polio vaccines, tuberculosis vaccines, and zoster vaccine. Several major products are entering critical stages of registration review or clinical trials. Meanwhile, CanSinoBIO’s continuous breakthroughs in key technology platforms support a strategic shift from reliance on single products to sustained pipeline output.Overall, in the first half of 2025, CanSinoBIO maintained the strong growth momentum seen since 2024, proving that its closed-loop capabilities from product R&D to commercialization have become increasingly mature. Against the backdrop of ongoing national policy support for innovative vaccines and domestic high-end vaccine substitution, CanSinoBIO—leveraging its solid R&D foundation, differentiated pipeline layout, and efficient commercialization execution—is accelerating the realization of its long-term growth potential and moving steadily toward becoming a global leader in innovative vaccines.
