SHANGHAI, Nov 27, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Chinese aerospace company Geespace continues to expand globally with a new cooperation agreement signed on November 26 with Systems & Services Limited (SSL), a leading satellite communications provider in Bangladesh. The partnership will support policy access, technical collaboration, and commercial deployment of GEESATCOM, a low-Earth-orbit (LEO) IoT constellation, marking another key step in Geespace’s international expansion.The agreement follows a year of strong momentum for Geespace, which has already formed partnerships with operators in Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan, Argentina and other markets. This reflects a broader global trend, with Chinese commercial aerospace companies moving from R&D breakthroughs to scaled deployment of LEO communication constellations.GEESATCOM reached a major milestone in September with the launch of its sixth orbital plane, completing Phase-1 constellation deployment. Geespace now operates 64 satellites in orbit with 100% on-orbit reliability. The constellation provides global coverage excluding the polar regions, supporting up to 340 million communications per day for as many as 20 million users. It delivers 1,900-byte message capability for text, voice, and image transmission, supported by in-house adaptive anti-interference technology offering up to 50 dB of protection to ensure secure and stable connectivity.Through sustained investment in scalable innovation, Geespace has built full-stack capabilities across the space, ground, and application segments—from constellation system design and payload development to satellite mass production, telemetry and operation control, communication chipsets, modules and diversified terminals. Compared with traditional satellite communications, GEESATCOM’s IoT services offer significantly lower costs and flexible service tiers to support a wide range of industry scenarios.Commercial use cases are expanding rapidly. In China, GEESATCOM has completed near-100% successful testing in sectors including marine fisheries, construction machinery, smart mobility, logistics and robotaxi. Internationally, Geespace has secured more than 20 operator partnerships across key emerging markets. In June 2024, GEESATCOM achieved a 99.15% communication success rate in its first overseas deployment test in Oman, with network availability exceeding 99.97%.From remote industrial operations to offshore vessel tracking, GEESATCOM is enabling reliable connectivity in regions underserved by terrestrial networks. As global deployments accelerate, Geespace aims to further integrate satellite technology with industry applications—supporting mobility, energy, agriculture, logistics, and other sectors with cost-efficient, secure LEO IoT services that contribute to digital transformation across emerging economies worldwide.Company: GeespaceContact Person: Elliott ZhangEmail: geespace.pr@geely.com Website: https://www.geespace.com/ Telephone: +86 21 54200666 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

A critical moment for Asia’s banks to align food-and-agri lending with climate and nature targets, UN Sustainable Development Goals, and investor expectationsSINGAPORE, Nov 26, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Asia Research & Engagement (ARE) today released the Protein Transition Bank Benchmark 2025, its first assessment of how banks in Southeast Asia and India are beginning to integrate sustainable food and agriculture considerations into their financing frameworks.Titled, “Banking Asia’s Protein Transition: Financing the Shift Towards Responsible and Sustainable Food and Agriculture Systems”, the study evaluates 24 banks across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and India, offering a comparative view of how prepared financial institutions are in responding to risks and opportunities in supporting a protein-system transition, based on public disclosures.Building Understanding to Support a Resilient Food SystemKate Blaszak, Director, Protein Transition at Asia Research & Engagement (ARE), said, “Food and agriculture are increasingly material to financial stability, sector resilience, and humane and sustainable outcomes across Asia. This benchmark provides a constructive starting point for banks to build understanding of intersectional risks in this critical sector, strengthen capacity for responsible lending, and engage clients on emerging opportunities in sustainable food systems.”Regional Snapshot: Early Signs of MomentumAlthough maturity varies by market, the benchmark finds that banks across the region are starting to recognise food-and agriculture-related risks and the importance of more resilient, lower-impact food systems.Singaporean banks have responsible-lending frameworks in place, and DBS, UOB, and OCBC have all adopted deforestation-exclusion principles. The next steps are to enhance transparency, demonstrating deforestation and cage-free lending, and boost sustainable finance for this sector.Malaysia’s CIMB and Maybank already support sustainable palm production. They can enhance leadership across their livestock exposure through strengthening nature protection by adding feed-related deforestation exclusions and adding responsible antibiotic use and animal welfare principles to their lending criteria.Thailand’s Kasikornbank, Krung Thai, and SCB reflect early alignment with the country’s expanding plant-based and future-food sector, supporting “Kitchen of the World” ambitions with a clear opportunity to demonstrate leadership in alternative proteins and humane production methods.Indonesia and the Philippines face significant exposure to climate, nature and other agricultural risks. Banks such as BCA, Mandiri, and BDO Unibank are at an early stage of integrating sustainability frameworks for this sector. They can strengthen understanding of the need for more sustainable and resilient agri-finance approaches.India’s ICICI is taking early steps by disclosing climate-risk scenario analyses for the sector. Indian banks overall have yet to include deforestation, animal welfare, or antibiotic-use in their lending criteria, but with food and agriculture identified as a “Priority Lending Sector,” there is a clear case for strengthening lending frameworks to underpin nutritional security and climate resilience.Early Signals Emerging, Yet Gaps Remain Across Climate, Nature, and Protein ThemesClimate: Two banks have begun incorporating food and agriculture into their net-zero strategies — an important early signal in a sector where disclosure of decarbonisation pathways is still emerging. Yet, food and agriculture are significant contributors to climate change as well as being severely impacted by climate change.Animal Welfare: Three banks now reference animal welfare in their responsible lending frameworks, marking the first indications of awareness in this area. The development of measurable standards and sustainable finance for cage-free presents a roadmap for practical progress.Antibiotic Use: Singapore’s UOB has taken an initial step by acknowledging antibiotic stewardship. Expanding this into clear principles for lending evaluation could strengthen risk management, and support food safety.Nature & Biodiversity: DBS, UOB, and CIMB have begun aligning with the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. High-impact next steps include extending this alignment to food-agri lending and incorporating verification of deforestation exclusions.Plant-Based Proteins: DBS, Maybank, and Krung Thai are among the early movers incorporating plant-based and alternative proteins within sustainable and transition-finance frameworks — signaling recognition of SE Asia’s fast-growing future-food markets.Looking Ahead: Financing Asia’s Protein TransitionARE highlights the importance of food and agriculture to Asian economies and the imperative for banks to establish a roadmap for reducing risk and capturing transitional funding opportunities such as plant proteins, deforestation-free feed, humane and nature-based solutions. By learning from leadership among peers and looking towards the models set by some regionally active international banks, Asia’s lenders could help drive sustainable food production with climate, health, animal, and nature protective benefits via more comprehensive responsible lending frameworks and transition finance targets.“The next wave of sustainable finance will be defined by nutrition, nature, compassion, and resilience,” Blaszak said. “Banks that act early can reduce systemic risks and unlock new sources of value.”About Asia Research & Engagement (ARE) ARE brings leading investors into dialogue with Asian-listed companies to address sustainable development challenges and help companies align with investor priorities. With decades of Asia experience, our cross-cultural team understands the region’s unique needs. Our high-quality independent research, robust investor network, and engagement expertise provide corporate leaders and financial decision makers with insights leading to concrete action.To learn more about ARE’s Protein Transition programme: https://asiareengage.com/protein-transition/Contact: Wani DiwarkarEmail: wani.diwarkar@asiareengage.comPhone: +65 9832 0643 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - November 25, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: A1W038) (FSE: 1D4) ("Doubleview" or the "Company") is pleased to announce positive first-phase pre-optimization results from its two-year, novel scandium-focused metallurgical test program. These results confirm the technical viability of recovering high-purity scandium oxide alongside copper, gold, cobalt, and other metals from the Company's 100%-owned flagship HAT polymetallic deposit in northern British Columbia.This breakthrough development marks a global first: The successful recovery of scandium from copper porphyry flotation tailings to a scandium oxide product.The primary objective of this extensive test program, conducted at SGS Canada Inc., was to establish a viable proprietary flowsheet enabling scandium to be included in the upcoming, updated mineral resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment, potentially as measured, indicated, or inferred resources. The Company's maiden resource estimate (July 25, 2024) highlighted a scandium potential of 300 to 500 million tonnes grading approximately 40 ppm Sc2O3."The scandium resource potential is based on the drill holes on the property drilled for (July 25, 2024) maiden resource estimate for other metal content than scandium. The potential quantity and grade are conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource."Early metallurgical test work demonstrated that scandium could be extracted from copper flotation tailings. Subsequently, through an innovative robust test work programme at SGS Canada Inc., it has been successfully demonstrated that scandium in flotation tailings can be recovered to a high purity di-scandium tri-oxide product (Sc2O3).Key metallurgical results include:Primary scandium extraction (leach): 82%Overall scandium recovery to high-purity Sc2O3 product: 88%Future work to advance the Hat project will focus on continuous pilot plant testing and further optimization to improve primary extraction and enhance final product purity.Farshad Shirvani, President and CEO of Doubleview Gold Corp., stated:"Today's results are a game-changer for the HAT project and potentially for the entire scandium industry on the world stage. World scandium supply is severely limited although there are several scandium projects currently being considered for development. Our metallurgy program shows that at HAT, we can recover high-value scandium directly from the tailings of a standard copper flotation circuit, using acid produced from internally generated pyrite. If the HAT project advances to production, scandium could become a high-margin bonus on top of a potential world-class copper-gold-cobalt operation.Now that we've established the technical viability of scandium recovery, the next steps will focus on pushing extraction and overall recovery as high as possible through continued optimization and pilot-scale testing. I could not be more excited about what the future holds for Doubleview shareholders and all our stakeholders."The pictures below show the first Scandium Oxide (Sc2O3) produced from the Hat Deposit in the lab. Doubleview now plans to continue its metallurgical optimization program to enhance the recovery of scandium and other metals, including copper, cobalt, gold, and silver, which are critical for the upcoming prefeasibility study.Photo 1: Scandium Oxide (Sc2O3) from the Hat depositTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/275884_4b60eef9a4ae6b97_001full.jpgPhoto2: Scandium Oxide (Sc2O3) from the Hat depositTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/275884_4b60eef9a4ae6b97_002full.jpgQualified Person:EUR ING Andrew Carter B.Sc., CEng., MIMMM (QMR), MSAIMM, SME, Doubleview's Qualified Person with respect to the HAT Project metallurgical studies as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this news release and is independent of the Company.What is Scandium?Scandium (Sc) , (atomic weight 45.10, density 2.5), a close relative of the Rare Earth elements, possesses exceptional properties when alloyed with other metals, particularly aluminum. It is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and as an alloy is capable of dramatically improving strength, heat resistance, and weldability without adding significant weight. When combined with aluminum, scandium forms alloys that achieve the strength of steel while maintaining the light weight of aluminum, enabling revolutionary applications in transportation, aerospace, and clean energy. Scandium's scarcity, produced in limited quantities globally, primarily as a byproduct, makes it a high-value critical mineral, with prices often exceeding $5,000 per kilogram. Its applications span aerospace, defense, and increasingly, the clean energy sector, where it plays a pivotal role in advancing sustainable technologies. Global scandium resources are dominated by projects in Australia and northern Europe. Canadian deposits potentially can allow diversity of supply within a stable and mature mining jurisdiction.About Doubleview Gold CorpDoubleview Gold Corp (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) is a Canadian resource company advancing the 100%-owned Hat Polymetallic Project, located in the prolific Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia. The Hat hosts a large copper-gold-cobalt-scandium porphyry system with significant critical metal potential.

SINGAPORE, Nov 25, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - On November 25, 2025, PlayLah, a product of VOLCANO ENTERTAINMENT PTE. LTD., officially launched its new entertainment-focused casual gaming platform, enabling players to enjoy fast, stress-free mini-games anytime and anywhere.The arrival of PlayLah marks a significant moment in the global casual gaming landscape. In an era where mobile entertainment is increasingly defined by convenience, speed, and simplicity, PlayLah positions itself as a dedicated hub for instant enjoyment. Built from the ground up to match the habits of modern players, it offers a seamless entertainment experience designed for the scattered moments of everyday life. Whether someone wants to relax during a short break, unwind after work, or simply fill a few idle minutes, PlayLah provides a space where fun is always one tap away.A Fresh Take on Casual GamingMobile gaming has gone through several transformations in the last decade. There was a time when players favored large-scale titles with elaborate content and heavy progression systems. Yet the reality of daily life has shifted. More users now prefer games that deliver pleasure quickly, without demanding commitment or long hours. This behavioral shift is particularly visible across Asia, Europe, and the Americas, where busy routines leave limited time for lengthy entertainment sessions.PlayLah identifies this trend and responds with a platform engineered entirely around instant play. Every title available on the app is designed with straightforward mechanics that are easy to grasp within seconds. The gameplay loops are intentionally compact, allowing players to enjoy meaningful fun without any mental burden. This approach enables PlayLah to stand out amid an industry full of complex systems and resource-heavy titles, reminding users that joy can be simple, direct, and accessible.An Ever-Growing Library of Mini-GamesOne of the strengths of PlayLah lies in its diverse collection of mini-games. Unlike traditional single-title apps, PlayLah functions as a curated catalogue where each game offers a different style of entertainment. The selection covers reflex challenges, timing tests, puzzle solving, obstacle runs, casual action, and many other micro-genres that appeal to players of varying preferences.The essence of every game in PlayLah is clarity. Players are not required to memorize rules or understand complicated user interfaces. Each game introduces its objective immediately, letting players jump into action without hesitation. This simplicity does not diminish enjoyment. Instead, it enhances it by maximizing accessibility and minimising barriers to entry. Even players with minimal gaming experience can pick up a game and start having fun instantly.The continuous expansion of the game library also ensures that PlayLah remains fresh over time. New games are added progressively, giving users more content to explore and revisit. This steady growth contributes to long-term engagement, as players have multiple reasons to return and discover what is new each week.Smooth Performance and User-Centric DesignPerformance is a critical part of the PlayLah experience. Many mobile games suffer from long loading times, heavy assets, and battery drain. PlayLah addresses these issues through deliberate technical optimization. During internal and external evaluations, game loading speeds remained consistently fast. Interface responsiveness was smooth across all major device categories, and the overall storage footprint of the app stayed remarkably light.The platform’s user interface was constructed with a focus on clarity and comfort. Instead of overwhelming users with excessive visuals, PlayLah adopts a modern, minimalist style. Screens are clean, layout spacing is carefully balanced, and navigation flows naturally. This calm and structured presentation ensures that users never feel lost or pressured while browsing the game list.Such design choices create an atmosphere of relaxation, which aligns perfectly with the platform’s goal. PlayLah is built not only to entertain but also to serve as a refreshing digital environment where players can unwind without distractions.A Social Platform at Its CoreEven though the games on PlayLah are small in size, the platform itself offers a deep layer of social interactions. PlayLah was developed with the belief that entertainment becomes more meaningful when shared with others. Players can build profiles that reflect their personality through avatars, game collections, and progress markers. They can add friends, track one another’s achievements, and exchange friendly challenges.Leaderboards and rankings allow players to measure themselves against others, both globally and regionally. These rankings are positioned as light-hearted challenges rather than competitive pressure. The intent is to encourage interaction, not to create stress. Achievements, milestones, and performance records further enhance the sense of progression without forcing players into long-term obligations.Through these features, PlayLah transforms quick entertainment moments into an engaging community experience. It becomes a platform where interaction and fun coexist, making gameplay more rewarding and socially vibrant.Fair and Transparent MonetizationMonetization in mobile games is often a concern for players. Many apps rely on intrusive methods, aggressive pop-ups, or essential features locked behind payment. PlayLah takes a very different approach. Its monetization system is transparent, optional, and oriented toward enhancements rather than necessities.Players may purchase decorative items such as avatars and skins, as well as in-app currencies used to unlock aesthetic customization. Seasonal bundles provide additional value during special events. Optional ads are available for users who want extra rewards without spending money. A subscription model is under development to provide consistent value for highly active players.PlayLah ensures that all core content remains free. No essential gameplay mechanics, game modes, or features are restricted by payment. This philosophy prioritizes trust and long-lasting player satisfaction, which is crucial for a platform designed for an international audience.A Product Built for Global ExpansionCasual gaming has a universal appeal that transcends age, culture, and geography. With its accessible design and broad content variety, PlayLah is positioned to enter markets ranging from Southeast Asia and the Middle East to Europe, North America, and Latin America.The app’s lightweight architecture allows it to run on a wide range of devices. It requires minimal storage, loads quickly even in areas with slower network speeds, and does not drain power heavily. These qualities make it particularly ideal for emerging markets where device specifications vary widely.PlayLah’s user interface is also built with future localization in mind. Multi-language support will enable the platform to adapt quickly to the cultural and linguistic needs of various regions. This flexibility contributes to PlayLah’s global growth potential.The Vision Behind the PlatformPlayLah represents the ambitions of Volcano Entertainment Pte. Ltd., a Singapore-based company dedicated to social entertainment and mobile gaming. The company’s vision extends beyond creating a single app. It seeks to build a portfolio of entertainment products that connect people, cultures, and communities through accessible digital experiences.With PlayLah, the company aims to introduce a product that offers creativity, enjoyment, and cross-cultural appeal. The platform’s launch is an important milestone, showcasing the team's commitment to delivering high-quality entertainment.Continuous Innovation and Long-Term RoadmapThe launch version of PlayLah is only the foundation. The development team has already outlined a roadmap filled with new features and improvements. Upcoming updates include real-time multiplayer games, social rooms where players can interact while playing, enhanced community tools, and new daily engagement systems. Seasonal events and themed challenges will further enrich the platform’s content, offering fresh experiences throughout the year.Localization updates will gradually introduce multiple languages to support the platform’s global rollout. In the long term, the team is exploring tools that allow independent developers to contribute their own mini-games to the PlayLah ecosystem. This expansion has the potential to transform the platform into a dynamic creator-driven community.Why PlayLah Stands OutThe mobile entertainment landscape is crowded, yet PlayLah stands out because of its clarity of purpose. It does not attempt to be a large, complex gaming universe. Instead, it focuses on what many players genuinely want: quick relief, simple joy, and accessible fun. In a world full of digital intensity and information overload, PlayLah acts as a refreshing contrast.It serves students needing a quick break, professionals seeking a moment of relaxation, parents wanting light entertainment, and social groups who enjoy friendly challenges. Its strength lies in being simple without being shallow, social without being demanding, and entertaining without being overwhelming.ConclusionPlayLah’s official launch signals the beginning of a new chapter in casual mobile entertainment. By focusing on fast gameplay, friendly design, approachable mechanics, and social connectivity, the platform offers a refreshing and meaningful experience for players around the world.As the platform continues to grow, evolve, and expand internationally, its core mission remains constant. PlayLah will continue delivering instant, joyful entertainment to anyone, anytime, wherever they are.Media ContactCompany: VOLCANO ENTERTAINMENT PTE.

By integrating off-grid solar and battery systems, these installations will enhance the efficiency of rangers and researchers, providing reliable access to critical data in real time and enabling faster response to tiger sightings and anti-poaching efforts. This initiative also demonstrates how technology-driven insights can shape more effective, data-informed wildlife protection policies” he added.Encik Zainal Abidin bin Othman, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of PTNP said, “The Malayan Tiger is listed as critically endangered, with an estimated 150 remaining in the wild in Malaysia. This alarming scarcity highlights the urgent need for innovative and technology-driven approaches to safeguard the species. Through the enhanced connectivity provided by EdgePoint’s solution, PTNP together with the service operator of Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve, Enggang Management Services (EMS) Sdn. Bhd. and implementing partners can now benefit with better communications in the deep forest, instead of depending on satellite phones only. This is also one of the risk mitigation plans for the park alongside patrolling and monitoring. Ultimately, this improves the safety for the patrollers while enhancing park management.Justine Vaz, Executive Director from The Habitat Foundation added, “This pioneering initiative highlights the power of collaboration in driving meaningful conservation outcomes. It demonstrates the synergistic potential of partnerships between corporations, government agencies, and NGOs in addressing real-world challenges. The enhanced connectivity will improve coordination and data sharing among conservation stakeholders operating in remote landscapes. It will also be instrumental in reinforcing enforcement coordination and strengthening efforts to protect Malaysia’s endangered tigers.

HONG KONG, Nov 25, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Ching Lee Holdings Limited (“the Group”, stock code 3728.HK) announced its interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2025 with a net profit of approximately HK$2.9 million, a HK$0.9 million lower than the same period of last year. Nonetheless, the Group recorded a significant growth of revenue amounted to approximately HK$791.9 million in the half year. The Group aims to diversify business portfolio and strengthen its industry presence to deliver favorable returns for shareholders. In the period, a new operating segment for “Rental services of leasing of properties” has been included in addition to the existing segments of “Substructure building works services”, “Superstructure building works services”, and “Repair, maintenance, alternation and addition for an existing structure (“RMAA”) works services”. As a result, approximately 38.2% year-on-year higher revenue was recorded with a HK$0.11 million contribution of the rental services. The increase in total revenue was mainly due to a higher income of superstructure building works services driven by more revenue recognized for the projects in the completion stage during the period. The Group will continue to focus on its core businesses and explore potential opportunities in the property rental market.In the past, various macroeconomic factors continued to support the steady growth in Hong Kong construction demand, including the “Long Term Housing Strategy”, launched by the government. In addition, an increase in commercial and industrial transaction volumes in the third quarter of 2025 is also encouraging. As a main contractor in Hong Kong, the Group will continue to utilize its strong partnerships and customer network to identify potential construction projects, including both private-sector and public-sector opportunities, with the aim of further expanding its business footprint.The Group Chairman, Mr. Ng Choi Wah stated, “Looking forward, the Group is confident in Hong Kong’s economic outlook and the prospects of its construction sector.

HONG KONG, Nov 24, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – On 24 November, Chuangxin Industries Holdings Limited (“Chuangxin Industries” or the “Company”, 02788.HK), a leading integrated producer of electrolytic aluminum and alumina in China, was officially listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The Company offered a total of 500 million shares globally, with approximately 10% under the Hong Kong Public Offering and approximately 90% under International Offering. The Hong Kong public Offering was oversubscribed by 447.2 times. The final offer price was HK$10.99 per share, with a board lots of 500 shares, raising gross proceeds of approximately HK$ 5,495 million from the global offering. Seventeen cornerstone investors — including Hillhouse, China Hongqiao, Taikang Life, Glencore AG, and Mercuria — subscribed for an aggregate of US$351 million at the offer price, representing nearly 50% of the global offering. As of today’s market close, the Company recorded a strong trading debut, closing at HK$14.59, up 32.76%.Driven by Green Energy and Integrated Strengths to Shape a New Landscape in the Aluminum IndustryChuangxin Industries focuses on the aluminum industry, specializing in alumina refining and aluminum smelting, with operations spanning the production and sales of both electrolytic aluminum and alumina products. The Company has built an integrated ecosystem covering “energy — alumina refining — aluminum smelting”. Since 2012, the Company has established a strong presence in two resource-rich regions—Huolinguole, Inner Mongolia and Binzhou, Shandong Province—achieving a high degree of self-sufficiency in alumina and electricity supply. Leveraging stable, low-cost electricity, the Company maintains efficient production and enhances operational performance. In 2024, its alumina self-sufficiency rate reached approximately 84% and electricity self-sufficiency rate about 88%, significantly above the industry average. At the same time, the Company continues to invest in R&D, advance the integration of the aluminum value chain, and accelerate its green transition to build a more efficient and sustainable production model. At the listing ceremony, Mr. Cui Lixin, Chairman of Chuangxin Industries, stated: “The successful listing of Chuangxin Industries marks a new starting point for us to drive transformation across talent, products, energy and capital. We will further strengthen our advantages in cost, quality, technology and service, and focus on globalization, green development, high-end manufacturing and intelligent innovation, accelerating our journey toward becoming a green aluminum industry group in the global market.”Mr. Cui Lixin, Chairman and Non-executive Director of Chuangxin Industries, attended the listing ceremony at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.Chuangxin Industries fully explores wind and solar energy to establish a stable green power aluminum business. Several of its self-owned wind and solar plants have already commenced operation, and the Company plans to increase the proportion of green energy usage to over 50% by the end of 2026. This not only helps reduce electricity costs but also enhances the Company’s long-term sustainability. Leveraging its integrated ecosystem and low-cost power advantages, the Company maintains strong competitiveness in operations, production capacity, and raw material supply. Based on its 2024 production output, Chuangxin Industries’ aluminum smelter in Huolinguole, Inner Mongolia has become the fourth-largest electrolytic aluminum production base in North China. Its high-quality, low-carbon products further strengthen the Company’s competitive position in both domestic and international markets.Over the past few years, the Company has maintained steady growth in its performance. Revenue increased from RMB 13.49 billion in 2022 to RMB 13.815 billion in 2023, and further to RMB 15.163 billion in 2024. For the first five months of 2025, revenue reached RMB 7.214 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 22.6%. Benefiting from the synergies between its alumina and electrolytic aluminum businesses and its low-cost advantages, the Company’s gross profit margin has improved each year, rising from 15.1% in 2022 to 16.9% in 2023 and further to 28.2% in 2024. Net profit rose from RMB 913 million in 2022 to RMB 1.081 billion in 2023, and surged further to RMB 2.63 billion in 2024. This consistent growth demonstrates not only the strong resilience of the Company’s core business but also its ability to navigate market volatility, laying a solid foundation for continued expansion in domestic and overseas markets.Capturing Market Opportunities and Advancing Capacity and Overseas ExpansionAccording to CRU, global electrolytic aluminum consumption is expected to grow at a CAGR of 1.6% from 2025 to 2028, while China’s annual demand gap for electrolytic aluminum is projected to exceed one million tonnes and last until 2034.The report also indicates that China is the world’s largest electrolytic aluminum market, with an industry scale of approximately RMB 897 billion in 2024, accounting for around 71% of global demand, and is expected to maintain its leading position in 2028. In response to the sustained growth in market demand and the structural supply gap, Chuangxin Industries focuses on the two most value-added segments—alumina refining and aluminum smelting. Leveraging its integrated ecosystem of “energy – alumina refining – aluminum smelting”, the Company continues to enhance production efficiency and operational performance. Its electrolytic aluminum output per capita reached approximately 590 to 670 tonnes, 2.2 to 2.6 times the industry average. In 2024, the Company achieved an alumina self-sufficiency rate of about 84% and an electricity self-sufficiency rate of about 88%, while maintaining a cash cost of approximately RMB 15,112 per tonne of electrolytic aluminum, ranking in the top 5% in China and top 30% globally— demonstrating its strong capabilities in cost control and capacity management. Beyond the China market, CRU forecasts that electrolytic aluminum demand in the Middle East and Southeast Asia will grow at CAGRs of approximately 4.6% and 3.0%, respectively, from 2025 to 2028, with the Middle East well-positioned to absorb capacity due to its energy advantages. The Company’s integrated electrolytic aluminum project launched in Saudi Arabia is built upon these regional growth trends and energy-related advantages, laying a critical foundation for its overseas capacity deployment and aligning with the global shift of aluminum production toward low-energy-consumption regions. As demand for aluminum continues to rise in emerging sectors such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaics and energy storage—while global supply remains constrained by environmental requirements and capacity approval policies— Chuangxin Industries is leveraging its high self-sufficiency, cost competitiveness and expanding overseas footprint to effectively capture market opportunities, underscoring its leading position and long-term growth potential.Looking ahead, the Company will make full use of the proceeds from the listing to further expand production capacity, enhance technology and R&D capabilities, and strengthen market competitiveness. The proceeds will be primarily used for overseas production capacity expansion, green energy projects, as well as working capital and general corporate uses. The combination of global demand growth, China’s structural supply gap, and the rising demand potential in the Middle East enables the Company’s investments to secure an early presence in key growth markets and establish a more resilient supply chain system. Supported by advanced technology and its integrated ecosystem, Chuangxin Industries will continue to enhance the competitiveness of its core businesses, expand its presence in domestic and international markets, promote the sustainable development of its electrolytic aluminum and alumina operations, consolidate its market position, capture industry growth opportunities, and demonstrate its strength and vision as a leading enterprise in China’s green aluminum industry.
