香港, 2025年3月31日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 策略重心定於交通樞紐廣告媒體經營，包括機場、地鐵站及高鐵站的知名戶外媒體公司雅仕維傳媒集團有限公司（「雅仕維傳媒」或「集團」；股份代號：1993.HK）公佈截至2024年12月31日止年度（「本年度」或「年內」）的全年業績。儘管宏觀經濟環境充滿挑戰，集團仍錄得淨利潤人民幣10.4百萬元，相對2023年則錄得人民幣9.9百萬元虧損。雅仕維傳媒主席兼執行董事林德興先生（太平紳士）表示:「本人欣然呈報，雅仕維傳媒成功實現扭虧為盈，此舉不僅標誌著我們財務的里程碑，更彰顯本集團適應市場變化的能力。我們透過退出表現未如理想的資源及優化現有媒體資源的表現，顯著提升營運效率；同時以具競爭力的成本重掌高潛力媒體資源的營運權，並精簡架構以強化內部控制。憑藉深厚的行業經驗，我們持續為長期合作夥伴，尤其是活躍於大眾消費領域的客戶，提供創新方案，助其實現可量化的品牌突破，從而進一步鞏固我們客戶網絡及捕捉嶄新機遇。」截至2024年12月31日止年度，儘管媒體資源庫存因優化措施減少，令收入下滑至人民幣1,069.2百萬，毛利為人民幣306.7百萬，而毛利率由2023年的21.9%提升6.8個百分點至28.7%。除利息、稅項、折舊及攤銷前盈利（EBITDA）為人民幣593.2百萬。於2024年12月31日，集團現金及現金等價物（包括受限制現金）達人民幣232.5百萬，財務根基穩健，為業務復甦提供堅實後盾。業務回顧地鐵綫及戶外廣告牌業務分部錄得收入人民幣399.6百萬，毛利為人民幣103.8百萬，毛利率為26.0%。地鐵業務方面，集團憑藉專業市場洞察，成功爭取以更有利的條款續約深圳地鐵等核心資源，並取得顯著成效。同時，杭州地鐵等成熟媒體資源的表現亦穩如預期。此外，高鐵出行熱潮所帶來穩定增長的客流，疊加集團大中華區資源網絡形成的業務協同效應，香港西九龍站、昆明火車站等樞紐的廣告價值得以持續提升。而廣告牌業務則透過持續優化多元化媒體形式，包括因應需求調整設計，逐步提升效益。機場業務分部錄得收入人民幣358.3百萬，毛利為人民幣124.5百萬，而毛利率則按年上升8.2個百分點至34.8%。受惠於集團透過持續優化資源配置實現機場媒體組合升級，包括以更優越的成本條件重獲海口美蘭國際機場廣告媒體合約，這一舉措大幅降低了成本，進而提升此分部的盈利能力。儘管全面營運重整仍在進行，但本年度的進展已令人鼓舞，印證了現有策略於提升回報方面的成效。巴士及其他業務分部錄得收入人民幣311.4百萬，毛利為人民幣78.4百萬，毛利率則按年增長14.3個百分點至25.2%。集團於下半年正式終止表現不佳的合約，同時精簡運作，提升整體效率，令此分部表現回穩。本年度，集團繼續憑藉自身領先業界的戶外線上（「O&O」）新媒體策略及DOOH+平台，在具影響力的行業平台上贏得45項創新廣告的殊榮。集團充分利用其市場深度洞察、數十年經驗與規模優勢，以創意連結品牌與受眾，同時重視快速執行及成本效益。亮點項目包括與全球知名的飲料品牌的合作，該項目奪得了金場景營銷大獎[1]。集團對地鐵站進行創意改造，成功打造充滿品牌基因的活力展示空間，同時配合巴黎奧運熱潮，融入田徑賽道及奧運五環裝置，凸顯「為健兒喝彩」的主題。在香港，集團亦為國際啤酒品牌重新設計巴士站，融入氛圍燈光，營造出沉浸式的夜間體驗，為行人帶來全新視角，因而榮獲IAI傳鑒國際廣告獎[2]。供應端方面，集團深化了與The Trade Desk、Hivestack by Perion及Vistar Media等程序化廣告領導平台的合作關係，讓優質數碼戶外媒體資源與尋求精確及數據導向廣告解決方案的全球客戶無縫對接。例如，一個針對精通科技、重視數據的移動用戶為對象的電訊品牌透過程序化平台，接入集團於新加坡湯申東海岸綫的媒體資源。結合集團的天氣觸發技術，廣告創意根據實時天氣在「晴天」及「雨天」版本之間動態切換，串聯線下到線上 - 每逢新加坡下雨，品牌即向客戶提供免費數據以驅散雨天鬱悶。該實時定制化的方式將獎勵與即時情景結合，增加了互動性及趣味性，從而提高參與度。此類創新不僅豐富城市視覺景觀，亦展現了創新影響力及營運靈活性之間的策略平衡。前景展望2025年，在中國政府提振內需政策的支持下，集團將深化與當前消費趨勢契合的行業合作。憑藉機場、地鐵及高鐵等戰略性媒體資源網絡，集團將持續推出連結品牌目標與消費潮流的廣告活動，創造具備針對性及創新性的廣告方案，從而拓闊收入來源並鞏固市場地位。長遠而言，集團將繼續完善其內部控制，並恪守審慎的理財策略以減低風險及應對不斷變化的營商環境。同時，集團將繼續憑藉與主要媒體資源擁有人的長期合作關係，優化媒體組合，從而提升營運效率及盈利能力。該等舉措將輔以組織架構調整，令集團得捕捉瞬息萬變的市場需求與機遇。林先生總結：「2024年揭示一項質樸至理：若以明澈之思、堅毅之志直面挑戰，挑戰自能化身為新展程的契機。創新始終是驅動我們戰略的核心引擎。我們持續突破廣告技術邊界，優化廣告活動，並將市場洞察轉化為商業實效。依託集團大中華交通廣告領域的領軍優勢，我們將深化跨媒體解決方案佈局，精准銜接品牌與消費者不斷變化的需求。憑藉靈活的調節機制、深厚的市場積澱及前瞻戰略視野，雅仕維傳媒將持續將行業變化轉化為發展契機，在鞏固創新基因與韌性傳承的同時，為股東及持份者創造長遠價值。」關於雅仕維傳媒集團有限公司（股份代號：1993.HK）雅仕維傳媒於1993年成立，是一家大中華地區的戶外媒體公司，策略重心定於大交通廣告媒體經營，包括機場、地鐵及高鐵。集團現時的業務網絡覆蓋大中華地區接近40個城市，包括於24個機場提供廣告媒體資源服務（22個獨家經營機場）；於國內及新加坡湯申－東海岸地鐵綫（TEL）共15條地鐵綫路，及高速鐵路香港西九龍站、中老鐵路（玉磨段）等16個高鐵及鐵路站提供獨家廣告媒體資源服務。此外，集團亦擁有港珠澳大橋（珠海口岸）、香港九巴巴士候車亭的廣告媒體獨家經營權。近年，集團亦積極與Google、 Hivestack by Perion及The Trade Desk 等多個廣告技術合作夥伴進行程序化廣告交易。雅仕維傳媒一直不遺餘力履行企業社會責任，其在環保方面的努力獲得官方肯定，榮獲「香港環境卓越大獎」及「香港綠色機構」的榮譽，並被評爲「商界展關懷」機構。有關雅仕維傳媒的詳情，請流覽網站：www.asiaray.com 或通過以下二維碼關注集團的微信帳號（帳號名稱：雅仕維傳媒集團或asiaray_airport）。[1] 金場景營銷大獎為行業基準，至今已連續舉辦九屆。其目的乃從眾多參賽者中發掘最具代表性的戶外場景營銷的創新精神及傳播價值的優秀案例，從而推動行業發展。作為中國廣告界最具權威的獎項之一，該獎項擁有嚴格的評審標準及具系統性的甄選機制。[2] IAI傳鑒國際廣告獎於2000年設立，由中國商務廣告協會及中國傳媒大學廣告學院共同籌辦，享譽業界。其大約200名評審來自學術界、廣告界、企業界及媒體界別中具影響力的人物，於行內具有高度認受性。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

京能國際持續增長背後：融入“雙碳”時代 邁向高質量發展

acn

香港, 2025年4月2日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 2024年，我國能源轉型"綠"潮湧動，道寬且長的"雙碳"賽道湧現出更多的新業態、新動能：人工智慧等新質生產力激發雙碳產業新活力；長期主義和耐心資本正創造新的確定性；多層次的REITs市場打開了更多元的退出管道；更多雙碳產業者積極佈局海外打造新增長點。在雙碳戰略的助推下，京能國際(00686.HK)交出了一份高質量的答卷，成為京能集團內首個資產過千億平臺，綜合實力邁上新臺階。2024年，京能國際實現營業收入70.11億元(人民幣，下同)，同比增加25.91%；淨利潤達5.57億元，同比增長18%。同時，公司總資產達到1024.69億元，較年初增長13.8%；總裝機量實現13501兆瓦，較年初增長47.5%，提前完成"雙千"目標。2020年是"碳達峰、碳中和"戰略的宣佈之年，也是京能國際推動重組的一年。重組後的五年間，京能國際保持戰略定力，業務版圖不斷擴大，資產規模、營收利潤等核心指標持續增長，走出了一條持續向上的成長曲線，成為雙碳戰略實施的一個生動注腳。堅持戰略引領，業績穩健增長2020年重組後，京能國際聚焦新能源產業，制定了"雙環線、一中心、一聚焦"的發展戰略，不斷豐富清潔能源產業戰略佈局，並逐步形成了"風光、水電、綜合能源、燃機、綠氫"五大板塊協同發展新格局，走出了一條差異化的創新之路。橫向看，在新能源市場佈局上，"雙環線"由北環線基地專案及南環線高收益專案構成，已有多個專案取得突破性進展。比如，2024年公司首個風電大基地專案"通遼2.38吉瓦基地專案"歷時一年實現全容量並網；"一中心"指以首都為中心拓展綜合能源市場，已實現公共建築、科研場所等場景全覆蓋；"一聚焦"則是聚焦海外發展戰略，出海開拓更大發展空間。數據顯示，截至2024年底，京能國際已在澳洲市場成功落地5個專案，裝機容量達到945MW，已成為澳洲本土清潔能源領域裝機最大的中資企業。在國內，京能國際主要分佈於內蒙、華北、西北等資源豐富地區，以及華南、華東、華中等經濟發達及用電需求旺盛地區，保證了專案收益穩定性和持續性。在國外，隨著澳洲市場的順利開拓，京能國際出海的第二增長曲線初具雛形。縱向看，在新能源業態佈局上，京能國際已形成多元化的新能源業態佈局，為穩健增長打下重要基礎。更為重要的是，京能國際的新能源業態覆蓋了從相對成熟的風光、水電，到快速發展中的燃機和綜合能源，再到新興的氫能和智算業務，構建起持續釋放增長動能的業態佈局。報告期內，京能國際共擁有166個太陽能發電站、38個風力發電站和26個水力發電站及3個儲能電站，並經聯營公司持有3個太陽能發電站、3個風力發電站和2個水力發電站。目前，京能國際水電業務貢獻良好利潤，燃機業務也穩步形成新的穩定盈利點。而更長期看，綜合能源業務將迎來發展機遇，而處於培育期的綠氫業務有望成為未來新增長極。實際上，京能國際業務已連續五年保持增長，裝機規模從不到200萬千瓦增加到超過1300萬千瓦。業績持續增長背後源自京能國際精准、前瞻的戰略，市場佈局以及業態佈局縱橫交織，編織成一張高質量發展的新能源業務網，支撐起未來增長的持續性和確定性。融入雙碳戰略，實現高質量發展從2020年提出"雙碳"戰略目標以來，"雙碳"的影響，已經從頂層政策的指導檔，傳導至能源、材料、製造等產業，滲透至人們生活、工作方方面面之中。當前，新一輪科技革命和產業變革加速重構全球能源版圖，大力發展新能源成為我國加快能源轉型升級、培育經濟新增長點的重要戰略選擇。綠色產業將成為我國今後的經濟發展的重要引擎之一。2024年發佈的《關於加快經濟社會發展全面綠色轉型的意見》，提出了推動經濟社會的全方位、全領域、全地域的綠色轉型，預計2030年節能環保產業規模將達到15萬億元，年複合增長率有望達10%左右。處在雙碳賽道上的京能國際憑藉領先的戰略佈局，持續收穫海內外資本市場和監管機構的肯定。2024年，京能國際取得惠譽國際評級"A"級、標普國際信用評級"BBB+"級、聯合資信境內信用評級"AAA"級；在可持續發展層面，獲得惠譽常青授予的評級為"2"，主體得分為"78"的環境、社會及管治(ESG)評級。在境內外專業機構的認可下，京能國際持續優化資本結構，降低資金成本。此外，2024年，京能國際繼成功上市國內首單光伏公募 REITs之後又發佈首單REIs擴募公告，進一步打開了專案融資和退出的通路。2025年是"十四五"的收官之年，也是"十五五"藍圖繪製之年。未來五年也是"雙碳"戰略衝刺碳達峰目標的關鍵五年，新能源產業將迎來發展歷史性機遇。值得強調的是，京能國際積極佈局，儲備了數量充足的專案。同時，公司儲備專案主要為大型清潔能源基地專案及區域集群化專案，在未來一段時間內陸續落地，將驅動未來增長投資的本質就是尋找確定性，而最大的確定性來自時代機遇。一滴水只有融入大海才能永不乾涸，企業只有將自身發展與國家發展大局緊密相連才能基業長青。在建設中國式現代化的新征程中，京能國際堅持戰略引領，讓企業戰略與國家戰略同頻共振，在融入經濟社會高質量發展進程中創造了自身發展的最大的確定性。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Fosun’s Stable Fundamentals Support its Clear Growth Path

acn

HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fosun International (HKEX: 0656), which is committed to advancing its core business-focused and business streamlining strategy, announced its 2024 annual results on 30 March.According to the results announcement, in 2024, Fosun International’s total revenue reached RMB192.14 billion, representing a slight decrease of 3.1% from 2023. Its four core subsidiaries – Yuyuan, Fosun Pharma, Fosun Insurance Portugal, and Fosun Tourism Group (“FTG”) – generated a total revenue of RMB134.65 billion, accounting for 70.1% of the Group’s total revenue. Due to a one-off book loss related to an individual investment during the reporting period, the Group’s loss attributable to owners of the parent for the year amounted to RMB4.35 billion.“In the past year, we sustained steady growth momentum and demonstrated robust resilience in the face of global economic fluctuations and market challenges. We continuously advanced our core business-focused and business streamlining strategy by divesting non-core assets and heavy assets to focus on core operations, reduce debt, and optimize our capital structure. In the course of asset divestment, the adjustment in the carrying value of an individual investment impacted our 2024 financial performance. Nonetheless, Fosun’s overall operational fundamentals remain stable, the core businesses are under healthy development, and the industrial operation profits and operating cash flows stay healthy and stable,” Guo Guangchang, Chairman of Fosun International, stated in the letter to shareholders.CITIC Securities released a research report based on Fosun International’s 2024 annual results on 30 March, stating that the company’s industrial operations remain stable, while the loss is mainly attributable to the one-off impairment from its investment. In fact, excluding the one-off non-cash impairment loss, Fosun International’s profit attributable to owners of the parent for 2024 amounted to RMB750 million, and the industrial operation profit, which reflects Fosun’s fundamentals and growth potential, reached RMB4.9 billion.Additionally, Fosun’s financial position remained sound. As at the end of 2024, the total debt to total capital ratio was 52%, and cash and bank balance and term deposits amounted to RMB106.34 billion, representing an increase of approximately RMB13.88 billion from the previous year. Healthy debt ratios and strong liquidity buffer not only strengthen the company’s resilience against risks but also enhance its ability to seize development opportunities.“We believe that our clear strategic focus and robust industrial operational capabilities are the key to driving Fosun’s long-term steady growth,” Guo Guangchang said.Pursuing “strategic advancements and exits”, further deepening focus on core industriesSince last year, Guo Guangchang has summarized Fosun’s current strategy as “strategic advancements and exits” on multiple occasions. He noted that in the past few years, Fosun has mainly prioritized “exit” to streamline its business. However, starting in 2024, it has placed greater emphasis on “strategic advancements and exits”. By pursuing “advancements” in core operations, it has leveraged development to address challenges.The results announcement indicated that from 2022 to 2024, Fosun completed the divestment of approximately RMB75.0 billion of non-strategic and non-core assets. In 2024, the signed asset divestment amounted to approximately RMB17.5 billion equivalent at the group level, and approximately RMB30.0 billion equivalent at the consolidated level.Fosun’s steadfast commitment to divesting non-strategic and non-core assets has not only strengthened its liquidity buffer, but also provided robust support for accelerating its focus on core industries, including health, tourism and culture, consumption, and insurance.In 2024, Fosun continuously pursued advancements in core businesses. In the health business, Fosun Pharma increased its stake in Fosun Kairos to 100%, further focusing on the research and development (“R&D”), manufacturing and commercialization of CAR-T cell therapy. In the tourism and culture business, the ULTRAMED Hainan project in Sanya was officially launched. FTG also signed an asset-light operation agreement for the Jinsha Bay project in Shenzhen, marking the launch of the first Club Med in the Greater Bay Area. In addition, the Taicang Alps Resort Phase II project is about to commence, it is developed by Taicang municipal government platform and managed by FTG. In March 2025, FTG successfully completed its privatization, providing the company with greater flexibility and efficiency in accelerating its asset-light transformation.According to the 2024 financial results, the four core subsidiaries, which contributed more than 70% of Fosun’s total revenue, delivered solid performance. Among which, Fosun Pharma achieved operating revenue of RMB41.07 billion and net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB2.77 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 16.08%; Fosun Insurance Portugal’s total gross written premiums reached EUR6.17 billion and net profit reached EUR173.5 million; FTG achieved sustained profitability, with Club Med’s business turnover reaching a record high of RMB16.15 billion, while Atlantis Sanya’s business turnover remained at a high level; despite the impact of structural adjustments in the domestic consumption patterns, Yuyuan lowered its asset-liability ratio to 67.82% through active adjustment. The company also boasted ample cash on hand of RMB10.69 billion, positioning it for future growth.It is worth noting that after years of accumulation and cultivation, Fosun’s two domestic insurance companies have ushered in a period of rapid development. The total premium income of Pramerica Fosun Life Insurance surged from RMB4,346 million in 2023 to RMB9,251 million in 2024, while Fosun United Health Insurance also experienced steady growth in premium income, and both companies achieved profitability. In 2024, the profit attributable to owners of the parent of the insurance segment was RMB1.716 billion, representing a significant increase of 117% year-on-year.“We have integrated Fosun’s profound industry expertise, extensive investment experience, and high-quality commercial resources with the operations and investments of insurance companies, forming a three-dimensional “insurance + industry + investment” flywheel-driven strategy.” Guo Guangchang believes that the collaborative growth of Fosun’s domestic and international insurance companies and various industries has laid a strong foundation for Fosun’s flywheel-driven strategy.Unlocking value through core capabilities in “globalization + innovation”Thanks to its two core capabilities in globalization and innovation, Fosun has steadily developed its core businesses while pursuing strategic advancements and exits.In 2024, Fosun continued to deepen its business presence in more than 35 countries and region in the world, consolidating its global operational capabilities. Building on a high base from the previous year, its overseas revenue for 2024 grew 6.2% year-on-year to RMB94.78 billion, and the proportion of overseas revenue further rose to 49.3%.It is believed that amid the rising de-globalization trend, Fosun’s globalization capabilities are becoming increasingly scarce, and its high-quality global operations are emerging as a powerful engine for new round of growth.In 2024, Fosun’s innovative biopharmaceutical platform, Henlius, became a key player in the overseas expansion of Chinese innovative drugs. During the reporting period, Henlius’ overseas product sales revenue surged 30.76% compared to the previous year. HANSIZHUANG, the world’s first anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody for the first-line treatment of small cell lung cancer, independently developed by the company, was approved for marketing in the European Union, extending its reach to more than 30 countries and regions; HANQUYOU was approved for marketing in the U.S. and Canada, embarking on a new journey of commercialization in North America; HANLIKANG, the first biosimilar approved in China, was approved for marketing in several countries in Latin America including Peru; HANBEITAI was approved for marketing in Bolivia. Henlius now has four self-developed and self-manufactured products approved for overseas marketing. Benefiting from the ongoing market expansion of key products, Henlius achieved operating revenue of approximately RMB5.72 billion and net profit of RMB820.5 million in 2024, representing a substantial increase of 50.3% year-on-year.Leveraging Fosun’s global ecosystem, Hainan Mining has accelerated its global resource strategy, successfully acquiring one overseas project each year for the past three years. During the reporting period, Hainan Mining completed the acquisition of oil interests in four oil blocks in the Sultanate of Oman and initiated the acquisition of two producing zirconium-titanium mines in Mozambique, planning to further increase its investment in Africa while entering the promising small metals and rare-earth industries. In addition, as at March 2025, the first phase construction of the project Bougouni lithium mine in Mali Africa had met the conditions for continuous and stable production. In 2024, Hainan Mining’s overseas subsidiaries achieved revenue of RMB1,968 million, accounting for 48% to the total revenue. Driven by the globalization strategy, the company reported a net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB706 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 12.97%, and a net profit excluding non-recurring gains and losses of RMB680 million, representing a significant increase of 23.72% year-on-year.Among overseas member companies, Fosun Insurance Portugal has continued to consolidate its leading position in the local market while fully leveraging Fosun’s “global organization + local operations” capabilities, achieving double-digit growth in international business. In 2024, its overseas revenue reached EUR1.84 billion and the proportion of international business rose to 29.8%.Following the successful overseas debut of Fosun’s iconic cultural IP, the Yuyuan Garden Lantern Festival, in Paris, France from late 2023 to early 2024, it has embarked on another overseas journey in 2025.

香港, 2025年4月1日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 持續推進「瘦身健體，聚焦主業」的復星國際，3月30日公佈2024年全年業績。公告數據顯示，2024年復星國際（HKEX:0656）總收入達到人民幣1921.4億元，較2023年微降3.1%。其中，四大核心子公司豫園股份、復星醫藥、復星葡萄牙保險和復星旅文，總收入達到人民幣1346.5億元，佔集團總收入的比重達到70.1%。而因單體投資項目在報告期內一次性計提賬面損失，導致年度歸屬於母公司股東之虧損達到人民幣43.5億元。「過去一年，面對全球經濟波動和市場挑戰，我們保持穩健發展態勢，展現出了強勁的韌性。我們持續推動『聚焦主業，瘦身健體』的戰略調整，通過退出一些非主業資產及重資產，持續聚焦主業、降低負債並優化資產結構。過程中，由於單個項目帶來的賬面價值調整，影響了2024年的財務表現，但復星的整體運營基本面仍然穩健，核心產業依然健康發展，產業運營利潤和經營性現金流保持健康穩定。」復星國際董事長郭廣昌在致股東信中表示。中信證券根據復星國際業績情況，發表了研報，報告指出復星國際產業運營相對穩定，賬面價值調整導致虧損。事實上，剔除一次性非現金賬面減值因素影響，2024年復星國際歸母利潤約為人民幣7.5億元，而反映復星基本面成色及未來增長潛力的產業運營利潤更達到了人民幣49億元。與此同時，復星財務狀況保持穩健，截至2024年底，總債務佔總資本比率為52%，現金、銀行結餘及定期存款約為人民幣1063.4億元，較上一年度增加約人民幣138.8億元。健康的負債比率及厚實的現金流安全墊，不僅增強了抗風險能力，也提高了把握發展機會的能力。「我們始終相信，清晰的戰略聚焦和扎實的產業運營能力，是推動復星長期穩健發展的關鍵。」郭廣昌說。「有進有退」，深耕主業賽道去年以來，郭廣昌在多個公開場合用「有進有退」來概括復星正在執行的策略。他表示，過去幾年復星在「瘦身健體」過程中以「退」為主，但從2024年開始，更加強調「有進有退」，通過主業的「進」，用發展來解決問題。本次業績公告披露，2022年至2024年，復星三年累計完成非戰略、非核心資產退出約人民幣750億元等值。2024年，集團層面資產退出簽約約人民幣175億元等值，合併報表層面資產退出簽約約人民幣300億元等值。對非戰略、非核心資產持續而堅定的退出，不僅夯實了流動性安全墊，更有力支撐復星加速向大健康、旅遊文化、消費及保險等核心主業聚焦。2024年，復星圍繞核心主業持續進擊，動作頻頻。大健康方面，復星醫藥增持復星凱瑞權益至100%，持續聚焦腫瘤免疫細胞治療產品的研發、生產和商業化。旅遊文化方面，三亞超級地中海項目正式啟航，復星旅文深圳金沙灣輕資產運營簽約、大灣區首家Club Med落地；同時，復星旅文的太倉阿爾卑斯二期也即將動工，該度假區二期由太倉市政府平台打造，復星旅文運營管理。2025年3月，復星旅文順利完成私有化，未來將更靈活高效地加速輕資產轉型。從2024年財報數據看，貢獻復星超七成收入的四大核心子公司表現不俗。其中，復星醫藥實現營業收入人民幣410.67億元，歸母淨利潤人民幣27.70億元，同比增加16.08%。復星葡萄牙保險全年毛保費總額為61.72億歐元，淨利潤達1.735億歐元。復星旅文連續保持盈利，Club Med錄得營業額約人民幣161.5億元，再創歷史新高，三亞亞特蘭蒂斯全年營業額保持高位。在國內消費結構調整大環境下業務承壓的豫園股份，通過主動調整，資產負債率下降至67.82%，在手貨幣現金充沛，達人民幣106.9億元，為未來發展蓄力。值得一提的是，經過多年積累和深耕，復星旗下兩家境內保險公司也迎來了高速發展機遇期。復星保德信人壽的總保費收入從2023年的人民幣43.46億元大幅增長至2024年的人民幣92.51億元，復星聯合健康保險的保費收入也穩步提升，並且兩家公司都實現了盈利。2024年，整個保險板塊歸屬於母公司股東之利潤為人民幣17.16億元，同比大幅提升117%。「我們將復星對產業的深度理解、投資的豐富經驗以及的優質的商業資源與保險公司的運營和投資相結合，形成了一個多維度賦能的『保險+產業+投資』立體飛輪驅動戰略。」郭廣昌認為，旗下境內外保險公司和各產業的共同成長，無疑為復星的「飛輪戰略」奠定了強有力的支撐。「全球化+創新」，核心能力加速價值釋放復星能夠在進退之間，錨定主業行穩致遠，得益於兩大核心能力：全球化和創新。2024年，復星繼續深化在全球超過35個國家和地區的產業佈局，夯實全球深度運營能力，全年海外收入在高基數基礎上，實現同比增長6.2%，達人民幣947.8億元，佔總收入的比重進一步上升至49.3%。在逆全球化風潮下，復星的全球化能力愈發凸顯出稀缺性，而高質量的全球化業務，也正成為復星新一輪增長的強勁引擎。2024年，復星創新生物藥平台 - 復宏漢霖成為中國創新藥出海的明星企業。報告期內，復宏漢霖海外產品銷售收入較上一年度大幅增長30.76%。自主研發的全球首個用於一線治療小細胞肺癌的抗PD-1單抗漢斯狀，獲得歐盟批准上市，觸達國家和地區增至30多個；漢曲優在美國和加拿大獲批准上市，開啟北美商業化新征程；中國首款生物類似藥漢利康在秘魯等多個拉丁美洲國家獲批上市；漢貝泰也首次於玻利維亞獲批上市。目前，復宏漢霖已有四款自主研發的產品在海外獲批上市。得益於核心產品市場持續擴大，復宏漢霖2024年實現營業收入約人民幣57.244億元，淨利潤達8.205億元，同比大增50.3%。依託復星全球生態，海南礦業也加速全球資源佈局，連續三年實現每年落地1個海外項目併購。報告期內，海南礦業獲得阿曼蘇丹國4個區塊的油田權益，並啟動了對非洲莫桑比克兩個在產鋯鈦礦的併購，擬進一步加大在非洲的投資佈局，切入前景廣闊的小金屬及稀土行業。此外，截至2025年3月，非洲馬里布穀尼鋰礦一期已具備連續穩定生產條件。2024年，海南礦業境外子公司營收人民幣19.68億元，佔比提升至48%。在全球化戰略驅動下，實現歸母淨利潤7.06億元，同比增長12.97%，扣非淨利潤6.80億元，同比大增23.72%。海外成員企業中，復星葡萄牙保險在持續鞏固本土市場領先地位的同時，充分發揮復星「全球組織+本地運營」能力，國際業務實現雙位數增長。2024年實現海外收入達18.4億歐元，國際業務佔比提升至29.8%。復星標誌性文化IP豫園燈會，繼2023年底至2024年初首次走出國門在巴黎綻放後，2025年再度揚帆海外，1月豫園燈會主題燈組驚豔亮相越南河內，年內還將亮相泰國，持續向世界展示東方文化魅力。在郭廣昌看來，創新與全球化相輔相成，是復星最重要的基因。2024年，復星科創投入達約人民幣69億元，目前已建立超過20家全球科創中心，覆蓋多個行業領域，持續賦能新技術、新產品落地。創新藥研發方面，2024年復星醫藥自主研發及許可引進的7個創新藥/生物類似藥共16項適應症獲批上市。醫療器械與醫學診斷方面，直觀復星的Ion系統、復星醫藥自主研發的F-i6000全自動化學發光免疫分析儀、F-C2000全自動高速化學發光分析儀、細胞因子檢測試劑（化學發光法）分別在國內獲批上市分別在國內獲批上市。報告期內，復星醫藥製藥板塊專利申請達220項，其中包括美國專利申請3項、PCT申請18項；獲得發明專利授權66項。面對方興未艾的AI浪潮，復星圍繞核心業務加速佈局，將AI技術深度融入到豐富的業務場景中，以推動創新及效率提升。例如，復星醫藥推出PharmAID決策智能體平台，可支持精準高效決策，助力藥物研發提速增效；復銳醫療探索利用AI精準分析用戶皮膚，提供個性化護理方案；超級地中海項目打造全球首個AI主題度假區，通過AIGC技術實現客房個性化定制，並將引入數字人G.O（快樂管家）服務，提升遊客體驗。「未來，我們將繼續深耕核心產業，依託全球化能力和創新驅動力，我們有信心保持穩健發展，為股東創造長期、穩定的價值。」郭廣昌說。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

鍋圈用戶高速增長 消費股的增長新動能從何而來

acn

香港, 2025年3月31日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近日，在家吃飯餐食品牌鍋圈食品（股票代碼2517.HK）發佈了年度業績，紮實的供應鏈能力、創新的渠道策略、高效的會員運營，鍋圈食品實現營收毛利雙增長。2024年，鍋圈收入達人民幣64.7億元，同比增長6.2%；毛利為14.2億元，同比增長4.9%。值得特別注意的是，截至去年年底，鍋圈的註冊會員達到了4133萬名，同比增長了48.2%。而僅在2024年下半年，鍋圈的會員數量增長就超過1000萬名。而這家港股上市公司，是如何在其它企業在用戶增長越來越困難的環境下，通過在家吃飯這個賽道上跑出這樣的加速度的？站在行業風口，在家吃飯的「宅經濟」紅利火鍋，不僅僅是味蕾的狂歡，更是中國人餐飲與生活方式的縮影。據行業數據，2023年中國火鍋市場規模已突破6000億元，保持穩定增長，高於餐飲行業整體的增速，預計2025年火鍋市場規模達到6500億元。而除了火鍋市場蛋糕不斷變大，在家吃飯市場更是高速增長，隨著「宅經濟」的興起，在家吃飯成為新藍海。現在越來越多消費者不再困於餐廳的高昂賬單和排隊等待，轉而追求在家也能吃出「餐廳級」的體驗。數據顯示，中國在家吃飯餐食產品市場規模預計將在2027年達到9400億元，年增長率超20%。處在這兩塊不斷擴大的市場中，鍋圈正是趨勢的精準捕手，它的定位簡單卻直擊痛點：讓在家吃飯更簡單。從火鍋底料到牛羊肉卷，從海鮮拼盤到菌菇蔬菜，再到蘸料和鍋具，乃至燒烤小龍蝦都一應俱全，鍋圈提供了一站式的火鍋燒烤解決方案。這種「拎包入鍋」的便捷性，不僅迎合了年輕一代的懶人經濟，也讓火鍋從外出大餐變成了日常餐桌的主角。然而市場雖熱，競爭肯定不會小。傳統商超、地方生鮮品牌乃至電商巨頭都在覬覦這塊蛋糕。鍋圈憑什麽脫穎而出？答案藏在它的戰略佈局中。鍋圈的產品力密碼：創新驅動，核心經營利潤穩步攀升鍋圈深諳「得產品者得天下」的道理，產品線滿足了從獨居青年到多口之家的多元需求。更重要的是，鍋圈緊跟消費趨勢，創新能力也不可小覷，2024年鍋圈就成功推出了412個火鍋及燒烤類新SKU，同時還推出深受廣大消費者喜愛的多款套餐組合產品，為消費者帶去更多元的選擇和更愉快的在家用餐體驗。這也使得鍋圈2024年核心經營利潤達人民幣3.1億元，同比增長3.1%。樹立供應鏈護城河，從源頭到餐桌的極致掌控食品行業，供應鏈是命脈。鍋圈通過與上遊優質供應商深度綁定，確保了食材的新鮮與品質。公司擁有六個食材生產廠，包括生產牛肉產品的和一工廠、生產肉丸產品的丸來丸去工廠、生產火鍋底料產品的澄明工廠、生產水產類產品的歡歡工廠、生產滑類產品的逮蝦記、和生產酸湯底料產品的台江工廠，實現了產業鏈的深度佈局。通過在產業端的深耕與佈局，鍋圈不僅持續提升在上遊采購端的議價能力，同時釋放生產端的規模效應，助力生產成本持續優化，進一步確保了鍋圈可以向消費者兌現「好吃方便還不貴」的承諾。而相較之下，潛在競爭者就會受製於供應鏈短板，難以復製鍋圈的規模效應。這種供應鏈的高效閉環，既是鍋圈獨特的護城河，也是其競爭優勢的重要來源。品牌營銷，從線下到線上的流量密碼截至去年年底，鍋圈零售門店網絡已覆蓋全國31個省、自治區及直轄市，門店數量已達到10150家門店，在龐大線下網絡的基礎之上，鍋圈借力線上社交電商和短視頻平台，所帶來的規模效應就十分巨大。2024年，鍋圈繼續通過多層級的抖音賬號擴大消費者觸達，全年鍋圈品牌及產品在抖音渠道的總曝光量突破62.1億次。其中，從五月底開始陸續推出的「99元毛肚自由火鍋套餐」、「99元酸菜魚自由火鍋套餐」等超高性價比火鍋套餐，深受廣大消費者歡迎。僅毛肚火鍋套餐這一款，全年就累計售出超過人民幣5億元。憑借抖音端的優異表現，鍋圈於2024年抖音年度大獎中，斬獲最佳品牌先鋒大獎。以社交電商為入口，鍋圈構建了品牌與消費者的深度交互，這種「線上引流、線下體驗」的模式，不僅大大增加了用戶量，而且通過線上流量向社區門店的自然導流，增強用戶實體店體驗感，會讓鍋圈的品牌形象深入人心，從而可以形成長期消費習慣。而從預付卡數據上觀察，鍋圈在會員大幅增長的同時，繼續加強及深化預付卡計劃，預付卡預存金額快速增加，達到約人民幣9.9億元，同比大幅上升36.6%。財務指標健康，現金流充沛，擴張有底氣鍋圈的野心肯定不止於眼前的蛋糕。在繼續拓展多層級的銷售網絡，提升已覆蓋地區的市場滲透率的同時，鍋圈計劃通過諸如鄉鎮店等新店型，覆蓋更多的縣鄉市場。與此同時，公司也開始試水海外市場，計劃初步探索海外區域市場，向外輸出供應鏈能力，探索海外銷售增長點。這種「下沈市場+全球視野」的擴張策略，為鍋圈的未來的長期增長埋下了伏筆。而從財務上看，24年度，經營性現金流入為人民幣5.31億元，保持了健康、穩健的現金流。截至2024年12月31日，包括現金、銀行存款及理財產品的可動用資金余額為人民幣21.25億元，外部融資依賴低。現金流的健康狀態，為鍋圈的擴張提供了充足彈藥。展望未來，鍋圈不僅提到將擴大及深化全渠道銷售網絡，同時也將繼續探索智慧化的無人零售改造，以進一步延長門店營業時間，切入夜宵場景，打造全時段的即時零售門店網絡。而針對現有門店，通過加盟商組織及店長組織，繼續加強培訓賦能，全面提升單店效能。對於新崛起的中國AI能力，鍋圈將擁抱AI，賦能上下遊，不斷提升數字化能力，增強存貨流轉的高效管理，並通過精準營銷，擴大會員群體，提高會員活躍度及復購率。當前，鍋圈市盈率約20倍，在鍋圈註冊會員的高速提升的背景下，未來鍋圈業績兌現實現高比例增長可期，同時結合其高增長、低負債和強現金流的特性，這樣低的估值在目前來看也非常具有吸引力。鍋圈從一包火鍋食材做起，在品類、地域、線上線下不斷擴展。未來，它能否成為新的國民乃至國際品牌？相信時間會給出答案。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

AI Paradox in QA: Twice as Many Testers Fear Job Loss, But Adoption Keeps Climbing

acn

ATLANTA, GA, Mar 31, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Despite fears of job loss, Quality Assurance (QA) professionals are leaning into AI faster than ever, according to Katalon’s newly released 2025 State of Software Quality Report. The report reveals that testers using AI tools are twice as likely to fear being replaced by them, a paradox that underscores the profession’s evolving relationship with automation. Yet those with stronger AI fluency aren’t just adapting—they’re testing faster, leveling up their skills, and reclaiming joy in the work that once burned them out.Source: Katalon, 2025 State of Software Quality Report, https://www.katalon.com That shift is fueled by both urgency and intent. As AI reshapes expectations, 82% of QA professionals say AI skills will be critical in the next 3 to 5 years, and teams are already adapting. The report finds that those with higher AI fluency excel not just at using new tools, but in test planning, problem-solving, and applying AI concepts in real-world scenarios.To close the skills gap, 67% of teams are investing in continuous learning, while 53% are adopting AI-driven testing practices to stay ahead. And for the most advanced teams, QA is no longer just a safeguard, it’s a business enabler. In fact, 77% of respondents say aligning QA with business goals has helped improve customer retention.Katalon’s 2025 State of Software Quality Report surveyed over 1500 quality professionals, from engineers to senior executives, across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.  The report explores the challenges, capabilities, and innovations shaping today’s testing landscape—and how QA teams are evolving from execution-focused roles to strategic drivers of business value.“The shift toward AI-powered testing isn’t just accelerating—it’s inevitable. This year’s report validates what we’ve long believed: QA professionals, the unsung heroes of software innovation, are navigating intense pressure to move faster without compromising quality, and their impact is finally being recognized, with 48% of organizations now viewing QA as a competitive advantage. Looking ahead, the future of quality will belong to teams who can combine AI fluency with human insight to lead testing into a smarter, more adaptive era.”– Vu Lam, CEO of KatalonKey highlights of Katalon’s 2025 State of Software Quality Report:* AI Integration with Human Expertise: Testers who blend AI, automation, and manual testing skills with critical thinking, the new generation of hybrid testers—are leading the next wave of innovation in software quality. According to the report, high-maturity QA teams that leverage these hybrid testers are 1.3 times more likely to adopt AI-augmented test optimization and 1.8 times more likely to implement intelligent test maintenance practices like self-healing tests, compared to lower-maturity teams.* The Happiness Edge: Happier QA pros aren’t just more satisfied, they’re more effective. According to the report, they’re 1.4 times more likely to implement advanced automation solutions (46% vs. 34%) and 1.4 times more likely to say AI has improved efficiency and automation in their roles (71% vs. 52%). As organizations modernize, these findings reveal a clear connection between job satisfaction and innovation in software quality.* AI and The Future of QA: AI-driven testing is gaining momentum, with 61% of QA teams adopting it to automate repetitive tasks and free up time for more strategic work. Forward-looking teams are embracing advanced automation tools, augmented with AI, with the potential to make testing more adaptive, efficient, and intelligent. Beyond AI, they’re also investing in performance and load testing tools (34%) and test management platforms (30%) to further optimize workflows and scale quality with confidence.* Redefine quality with AI: The research shows that high-performing teams are modernizing on three critical fronts: 61% are adopting AI-driven tools, 51% are using modern development practices, and 40% are investing in continuous testing.
