HONG KONG, Nov 15, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – On November 14, Shoucheng Holdings (0697.HK) released its results for the third quarter of 2025. Despite macroeconomic pressures and structural adjustments across the industry, the company continued to demonstrate strong and steady growth momentum: revenue and profit both recorded double-digit increases, cash reserves expanded significantly, the asset monetization business entered a harvest cycle, and the company’s investments and applications in the robotics industry continued to advance. New business lines also accelerated notably during the period.At the same time, the company announced a large-scale share buyback program totaling HK$1 billion, adopting a more proactive capital management strategy to support market expectations. This combination of actions further clarifies Shoucheng Holdings’ “future growth curve.”1. Revenue and Profit Both Up Sharply: High Growth Becomes a CertaintyAccording to the Q3 report, Shoucheng Holdings recorded HK$1.215 billion in revenue, up 30% year-on-year; and HK$488 million in net profit attributable to shareholders, an increase of 22%. Operational efficiency remained solid, and the high growth rates in both top-line and bottom-line performance are rare among Hong Kong-listed companies.By business segment:Asset operations revenue reached HK$783 million, up 16%, maintaining steady expansion;Asset monetization revenue reached HK$432 million, up 66%, showing a clear pattern of realization and fund recovery.The strong performance in asset monetization reflects multiple funds entering the exit and repayment phases, driving stable cash inflows. This marks a more mature stage in the company’s “fundraising–investment–management–exit” cycle, with profit generation and capital recycling capacity set to improve further.Gross profit reached HK$551 million, up 28%, with overall gross margin stable at around 45%—demonstrating solid structural and earnings quality.2. Robust Financial Fundamentals: Strong Safety Buffer and Growth CapacityAs of the end of Q3, total assets reached HK$16.34 billion, an increase of 18% year-on-year.Most notably, cash and wealth-management assets reached HK$8.55 billion, nearly doubling from the beginning of the year—placing the company’s liquidity at a historical high.The company maintained a low 31.5% asset-liability ratio and a 10.9% debt-capital ratio, while retaining its AAA issuer rating. These indicators highlight an exceptionally strong financial position that supports steady growth and future expansion of its industrial and robotics strategies.Overall, Shoucheng Holdings has built a substantial financial “safety cushion” for long-term development.3. HK$1 Billion Share Buyback: Strong Conviction in Long-Term Industry TrendsShoucheng Holdings also announced the launch of a HK$1 billion share buyback program, to be executed in phases. This represents one of the more substantial capital-management actions in the Hong Kong market this year.Against the backdrop of low market valuations and a rapid transition cycle in the technology sector, the buyback enhances Shoucheng’s value-management capabilities and reflects its firm stance on long-term industrial trends.According to the company, the buyback underscores confidence in the long-term prospects of the robotics industry. As AI, embodied intelligence, autonomous systems and battery technologies converge, the robotics sector is transitioning from “technical breakthroughs” to “commercial adoption.”Entering this global industry window, Shoucheng aims to accelerate robotics industrialization by advancing forward-looking investment, scenario-based applications, and capital guidance—helping the sector move from pilot demonstrations to widespread adoption.4. Dual Engine of Robotics Investment + Applications: A New Growth Driver Is Taking ShapeOn the investment side, Shoucheng Holdings has built a comprehensive portfolio covering the core tracks of the robotics industry. Its investments include leading humanoid robotics companies Unitree Robotics and Noetix Robotics; embodied-intelligence foundational model developer Galaxea-AI; world-champion robotic football team developer Booster Robotics; aerial embodied-intelligence company Micro Differential Intelligence; integrated actuator module manufacturer Quanzhibo; and DeepRobotics Motion Lab, which specializes in humanoid motion control. In addition, the company has established the Robotics Advanced Materials Industry Company to extend its layout upstream into critical materials, further strengthening the technological foundations of the robotics value chain.On the application side, the company has achieved dense deployment across multiple high-value scenarios. Its automatic charging robots began first-site operations at Chengdu ICCD, advancing “Robotics + New Energy” from pilot stage to demonstration; the collaboration with IAT Automobile accelerates the deeper integration of robotics technologies into intelligent manufacturing and new-energy vehicle production lines. In the healthcare sector, domestic surgical robots have successfully completed multiple complex procedures at Peking University Shougang Hospital, forming a full closed loop from technical demonstration to clinical adoption. In education, Shoucheng has partnered with the Beijing Municipal Education Commission to advance the “Robots into Schools” initiative, delivering equipment, curricula, and competition systems to multiple schools. In the consumer sector, the country’s first batch of robotics experience stores has opened in Beijing, Chengdu, and major airport terminals, providing the public with direct access to “Robotics + Consumer” scenarios.Through coordinated efforts across capital investment, critical materials, core technologies, and multi-scenario applications, Shoucheng Holdings is driving robotics out of laboratories and into cities, homes, and everyday life—accelerating the emergence of a more mature and sustainable robotics ecosystem.5. Industry Trends Unlock New Growth Space: Shoucheng Stands at the Start of an UpcycleEntering 2026, the robotics industry is expected to enter an accelerated phase driven by supportive policies, rapid technological iteration and broadening application scenarios.From autonomous driving to humanoid robots, from industrial manufacturing to consumer adoption, from surgical procedures to education scenarios, robotics is moving rapidly toward large-scale commercialization.With steady growth in its asset-operation and fund-management businesses, Shoucheng is now building a new growth engine through robotics investment and applied deployment. As the industrial cycle turns upward, the company is positioned to capture stronger growth momentum across multiple segments.Looking ahead, Shoucheng Holdings will continue to advance its technology-driven strategy, fostering breakthroughs and real-world deployment in the robotics sector and securing a more prominent position in the next wave of industrial transformation.

LONDON, Nov 14, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Two pioneering studies published in the journal Animals have explored in depth how dog and cat guardians perceive more sustainable pet food options. Led by Jenny L. Mace, Alexander Bauer, Andrew Knight and Billy Nicholles, the research sheds new light on the potential for alternative proteins and plant-based diets in the companion animal sector.Study 1 - Dogs: ‘Consumer Acceptance of Sustainable Dog Diets: A Survey of 2,639 Dog Guardians'In the first study, the team surveyed 2,639 dog guardians worldwide. Around 84% of respondents were currently feeding their dogs either conventional or raw meat-based diets. However, a substantial 43% of this group reported they would nevertheless consider at least one type of more sustainable dog food (such as vegan, vegetarian or cultivated-meat formulations).Among the alternative options, the most acceptable was cultivated meat-based dog food (chosen by 24% of these respondents), compared to vegetarian (17%) and vegan (13%) dog diets. And when asked what characteristics would be needed for these alternatives to be chosen, the top choices were nutritional soundness (chosen by 85%) followed by good pet health (83%).Study 2 - Cats: ‘Consumer Acceptance of Sustainable Cat Diets: A Survey of 1,380 Cat Guardians'The companion study gathered responses from 1,380 cat guardians. In total 89% of these guardians fed their cats conventional or raw meat-based diets. However, just over half - 51% - of this group considered at least one of the more sustainable options to be acceptable.The most popular alternatives were those based on cultivated meat (chosen by 33% of this group) followed by vegan diets (18%). Similarly to dogs, the most important characteristics alternative diets would need to offer be chosen were good pet health outcomes (chosen by 83%) and nutritional soundness (80%).Differences among consumersBoth studies found that guardians who themselves reduce or avoid meat were significantly more open to alternative diets for their pets, as were those with higher educational qualifications. Age and regional differences were also apparent, with older consumers, and those from the UK, often less open to alternatives than those in other European nations, North America or Oceania, although differences were often not significant.What This MeansThese twin studies come at a time when the environmental and ethical footprint of conventional pet food production is growing in public consciousness. As noted by study co-author and veterinary professor Andrew Knight: "Recent studies have demonstrated that our dogs and cats collectively consume a substantial proportion of all farmed animals. Pet diets such as those based on plant-based ingredients or cultivated meat could transform the pet food system, lowering adverse impacts for farmed animals and the environment."With rapidly increasing populations already numbering hundreds of millions of dogs and cats globally, the shift of even a modest percentage of these pets to lower-impact diets could bring significant benefits.As co-author Billy Nicholles summarised: "These findings are of value to the rapidly growing pet food alternatives industry, enabling pet food companies to accelerate their growth and acquire new customers through evidence-based, targeted outreach."Implications for Industry and Veterinary PracticeFor pet food companies, the message is clear: launching sustainable diet lines is not merely a matter of production innovation, but also of trust-building. Clear information about nutritional soundness and health outcomes feature heavily in guardian willingness to adopt new products.For veterinary practitioners and animal welfare organisations, these findings underscore the importance of informed communication. If guardians are open to alternatives but uncertain about their pet's health outcomes, then evidence-based guidance becomes a key enabling factor.Further informationAndrew KnightVeterinary Professor of Animal WelfareAndrew.Knight@murdoch.edu.auSOURCE: Sustainable Pet Food Foundation Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

- Findings of a supply chain study commissioned by the HKTDC point out that even amid tense US-China relations, many US companies remain deeply engaged in the Chinese market, particularly in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area due to its unique and highly concentrated supplier network that is difficult to replace- Mainland enterprises are actively diversifying their supply chains and using Hong Kong as a supply chain management centre, with the city playing a key role in regional supply chain transformation- Hong Kong is a “superconnector” that serves as a crucial gateway for mainland enterprises to expand overseas and for global companies to access the Chinese Mainland market and regional supply chainsHONG KONG, Nov 13, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Hong Kong’s status as the preeminent supply chain “superconnector” has been reaffirmed by a major new US-Hong Kong research initiative. This was one of the key findings of “Strategically Leveraging Supply Chains to Access the Asian Market”, a major new research initiative commissioned by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and conducted by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute of the United States.At the heart of the study is a timely analysis of the ways in which the shift in US trade policy has triggered the accelerated reconfiguration of global supply chains, creating a raft of new challenges and opportunities along the way.While full details of the analysis will be published in December, preliminary findings introduced in the run-up to the 15th Asian Logistics, Maritime and Aviation Conference (ALMAC) indicate heightened geopolitical tensions, evolving trade policies, environmental pressures and technological advancements as becoming the collective catalyst for a supply chain revolution that is impacting every aspect of the global economy. In the wake of this mass recalibration, companies are reassessing their operations and looking to manage hitherto unencountered risks, ensuring that resilience is now prioritised alongside cost management and consistent competitiveness. This will inevitably impact the primacy of Asia’s role within this transformed landscape.The US research team was headed by Sean Randolph, Senior Director of the Bay Area Council Economic Institute, an acknowledged authority on economic and policy issues. Detailing the transformation underway, Mr Randolph said that the adoption of strategies such as reshoring, nearshoring and developing redundant supply routes by many global businesses is accelerating the regionalisation of supply chains. This shift, he said, has been partly driven by the regional trade agreements in place, but also by the need for greater supply chain security and a desire for proximity.Expanding on this, Mr Randolph said: “Companies are diversifying their manufacturing bases, while relocating certain activities from China to other countries in Southeast Asia, India and Mexico – adopting the so-called ‘China+1’ strategy in order to ensure resilience and reduce risk exposure.“At the same time, despite the ongoing bilateral friction, it is notable that many US companies remain deeply engaged with China. This is largely on account of the country’s unique concentration of suppliers – especially in the case of such regions as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) – which cannot be easily replaced or replicated elsewhere. Indeed, a number of recent surveys and announcements – including major Chinese Mainland investment commitments by businesses of the stature of Nvidia and Apple – have clearly demonstrated that, for many US businesses, China remains a key locale, with their engagement at least partly due to the indispensability of the broader regional supply chains.”Hong Kong can benefit as mainland enterprises look to diversify supply chainsNoting that the new tariffs and President Trump’s changed trade priorities have given some countries comparative advantages when exporting to the US, HKTDC Director of Research Irina Fan said: “In a development likely to bolster China’s stature as a production base, following early November’s US-China trade agreement, Chinese imports to the United States will be subject to a 20% tariff rate (10% reciprocal tariff + 10% fentanyl related) for the period 10 November 2025 to 10 November 2026. This comparatively low tariff level puts China-based suppliers on a par with many of their Southeast Asia counterparts, while providing them with a significant competitive advantage over countries with a higher tariff rate.”Maintaining that this does not suggest that Chinese Mainland businesses are complacent about their status, Ms Fan added: “Currently, many mainland enterprises are proactively taking steps to diversify and strengthen their supply chains, with a significant number of them leveraging Hong Kong as their supply chain management centre. Overall, Hong Kong is clearly set to play an increasingly important role in the ongoing supply chain transformation process, a change that is being driven by the region’s deeper economic integration and the new generation of supply chain networks.”The report cited the electric vehicle (EV) sector as one example where Hong Kong is already playing a pivotal role in the regional supply chain transformation process. As mainland-based automotive manufacturers, as well as their global counterparts, prioritise the expansion of EV and battery production in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong has more than proved its worth as a crucial investment and financial hub, acting as an effective conduit for significant capital to be channelled into countries such as Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia. More generally, recent investment data also clearly indicated that Chinese Mainland companies are increasingly utilising Hong Kong as the support platform for many of their regional projects.This outcome is likely to be bolstered by Hong Kong’s wide-ranging financial and professional services sectors, as well as the city’s agility in adapting to technological transformation and the evolving regulatory landscape – attributes that collectively position it as an indispensable nexus for international businesses.Summing up the report’s assessment of Hong Kong, Ms Fan said: “Essentially, this new research highlights Hong Kong’s vital roles as both a superconnector and a super-value-adder, while confirming the city’s status as the key enabler for any mainland enterprise looking to expand overseas, and simultaneously serving as a gateway for any global company looking to access the revitalised regional supply chains and the China market. This ubiquity is reflected within Hong Kong itself, with the city now home to an ever-higher number of overseas businesses, including 1,390 US companies, as of June 2024.”Flagship logistics event set to address regional supply chain developmentsThe rise of regional supply chains and the implications for global trade will be among the many key issues addressed at the upcoming ALMAC, which will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 17 and 18 November. Organised by the Hong Kong SAR Government and the HKTDC, the event will bring together some 80 distinguished speakers and is expected to attract 2,300 participants from more than 40 countries and regions. In line with the policies outlined in the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee and the 2025 Policy Address, the event will focus on many of the recent moves to further enhance Hong Kong’s status as an international shipping centre and global logistics hub.As the annual flagship event for the logistics, maritime and aviation sectors, ALMAC 2025 is running under the theme “Collaboration and Growth in the New Trade Landscape”, reflecting the event’s commitment to exploring trends and opportunities in the fields of logistics, shipping and air freight. Ultimately, the aims of the event are to foster the high-quality development of logistics and supply chain management, deepen international engagement, and facilitate practical cooperation throughout the logistics industry.Report and photo download: https://bit.ly/49Q8aFI“Strategically Leveraging Supply Chains to Access the Asian Market” is the major new research initiative commissioned by the HKTDC and conducted by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute of the United States.

Chainproof combines regulatory oversight with bespoke underwriting for institutions, asset managers, ETFs, and digital-asset treasury companies, and is backed by a top global reinsurer, supported by strategic investors including Sompo, and founded by Quantstamp, a global leader in blockchain security.Blockpass, the Safe Network for Crypto™, has pioneered reusable identities and crypto-native KYC/AML solutions.

HONG KONG, Nov 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Hong Kong is seen as a priority market and an essential trading partner by many of Italy’s increasingly Asia-focused businesses. This is among the key findings of a new report – Italian Companies’ Asian Expansion Priorities: Innovation, Healthcare and Retail Sectors – jointly conducted by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and the Milan-headquartered Italy China Council Foundation (ICCF).The research forms part of the forthcoming edition of the HKTDC’s signature promotion campaign Think Business, Think Hong Kong (TBTHK), set to take place in Milan, Italy on 27 November. The event will bring together over 700 business leaders, officials and investors from both Hong Kong and Italy to discover business and partnership opportunities in Asia.Primarily targeted at Italian companies with business in Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland and Asia, the research survey was conducted in Q3 2025, covering 172 Italian C-suite and senior business leaders.Commenting on the significance of the report, Irina Fan, Director of HKTDC Research, said: “According to the survey findings, 77% of Italian businesses are genuinely enthusiastic when it comes to expanding in Asia, with the Chinese Mainland and Hong Kong being their priority markets.”“It is particularly gratifying to see Hong Kong poised to play such a vital role in facilitating the Asia expansion of such businesses. When asked about how Hong Kong can facilitate Italian business expansion in Asia over the next three years, some 93% of respondents believe Hong Kong can effectively support their future Asia expansion plans. Its unrivalled status as a strategic gateway to many Asian markets, as well as its capabilities as a logistics and supply chain management hub, were also widely acknowledged,” she added.Facilitating expansion and leveraging trade agreementsWhen it came to future opportunities, the survey also highlighted the relatively limited awareness and low utilisation of many regional trade agreements. In particular, two agreements emerged as having significant potential to transform the commercial relationship between Hong Kong and Italy.The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is the world’s largest free trade agreement, encompassing the ASEAN bloc, the Chinese Mainland, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand. While 51% of respondents are currently capitalising on its benefits, huge untapped potential remains. Should Hong Kong’s application to join the RCEP be successful, 60% of Italian enterprises anticipate that it would unlock new economic opportunities and strengthen their engagement with the city.Another pivotal agreement is the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA), which has provided Hong Kong-based suppliers of goods and services with privileged access to the vast Chinese Mainland market since 2003. Despite CEPA having been in place for many years, some 80% of the Italian businesses surveyed were unaware of the agreement or how to leverage its benefits. This reveals a major opportunity, as only 12% are currently making use of CEPA’s advantages through strategic partnerships in Hong Kong.Putting the survey and its findings into perspective, Sara Berloto, Head of Research for the ICCF, said: “The survey highlighted many Italian companies can better leverage several existing regional trade agreements. This was most notably the case with the RCEP and CEPA. Overall, there is a real need for comprehensive information, training, and institutional support initiatives in order to ensure companies — especially SMEs — can heighten their strategic utilisation of such agreements.”Apparent opportunities amid already strong tiesLooking at the broader picture, the scale of opportunity available to Hong Kong SMEs is striking. Most notably, 77% of Italian companies plan to expand within Asia over the next three years, with the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and India cited as their preferred markets.By sector, 95% of Italian innovation and technology companies plan to expand in Asia, followed by 88% of healthcare companies and 86% of enterprises in the retail /wholesale sector. These findings align well with Hong Kong's new industry focus on innovation and technology, the life sciences and healthtech, as well as the raft of ambitious e-commerce initiatives the city has committed to.Such developments would further enhance the strong business relationship between Italy and Hong Kong. In 2024, trade between the two amounted to US$8.3 billion (HK$64.5 billion), positioning Italy as Hong Kong’s fourth-largest EU trading partner and export market and its third-largest EU import market.As of the end of 2023, Hong Kong was the third most significant destination for Italian investment in Asia. Hong Kong investors also made substantial investments in Italy, with the city being the third-largest Asian investor in the country. As of 2024, there were some 200 Italian companies active in Hong Kong.Think Business, Think Hong KongThe full survey report will be launched at TBTHK in Milan on 27 November.After successful Paris and Jakarta editions, TBTHK Milan will bring together some 80 delegates from Hong Kong, including government officials, top business and creative industry leaders, corporate service professionals, investors and start-up entrepreneurs, for a day of dialogue, networking and partnership-building with Italian companies keen to expand into Asia.The mega promotion will feature a symposium and an exhibition comprising the Business Support Zone and InnoVenture Salon, where some 20 Hong Kong service providers and start-ups will showcase their flagship products and solutions. Business matching meetings will be arranged to facilitate deals and collaborations between Italian and Hong Kong companies. The programme also includes the Hong Kong Dinner. At the symposium, Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR, Prof Frederick Ma, HKTDC Chairman, along with representatives from the Italian government, will deliver remarks. High-profile speakers from various industries will share their insights at the Plenary Session. The agenda also includes five thematic sessions, each dedicated to a strategic area including finance and trade, innovation and technology, global supply chains, as well as creativity and design. These sessions reflect shared priorities between Hong Kong and Italy and offer in-depth insights into practical collaboration opportunities.  To view press releases in Chinese, please visit http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/tc  References- HKTDC Research website: https://research.hktdc.com/en/  Photo download: https://bit.ly/3LxXv8I(From left) Director of HKTDC Research Irina Fan, Principal Economist (Global Research Team) Alice Tsang and Senior Economist (Global Research Team) Simeon Woo previewed findings of a new report – Italian Companies’ Asian Expansion Priorities: Innovation, Healthcare and Retail Sectors – at a press conference todayIrina Fan, Director of HKTDC ResearchAlice Tsang, Principal Economist (Global Research Team), HKTDCSimeon Woo, Senior Economist (Global Research Team), HKTDCFollowing the successful Think Business, Think Hong Kong in Jakarta in January, this mega promotion will take place in Milan, Italy, on 27 NovemberMedia enquiriesPlease contact the HKTDC’s Communication and Public Affairs Department:Jane CheungTel: (852) 2584 4137Email: jane.mh.cheung@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong's trade.

THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS, Nov 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA) will release its State of Scam Brazil Report 2025 on November 13, revealing an alarming disconnect between confidence and vulnerability: while 75% of Brazilians believe they can recognize scams, 70% have fallen victim to at least one within the past year. The report estimates total losses at R$99 billion, underscoring the urgent need for coordinated action across sectors.State of Scams in BrazilPart of a landmark global study covering 42 markets and interviewing 46,000 people worldwide, the Brazilian findings from 1,000 adults paint a troubling picture of daily vulnerability. Brazilians encounter scams on average once every day and a half - totaling 252 encounters per person annually. These encounters occur most frequently through phone calls (65%), text messages (55%), and email (55%), with shopping scams emerging as the most common type of fraud."Scams have become part of everyday life in Brazil. The fact that most people feel confident spotting scams, yet continue to fall for them, shows how sophisticated and convincing these schemes have become," said Renata Salvini, GASA Chapter Director Brazil. "Education, prevention, collaboration, and accountability must go hand in hand if we want to stop this cycle."The Human Cost Beyond Financial LossThe report reveals that 86% of scam victims felt very or somewhat stressed by their experience, while 59% reported significant or moderate impacts on their mental wellbeing. On average, each victim has been scammed 1.9 times in the past year, demonstrating how repeat victimization compounds both financial and psychological harm.Despite the prevalence of scams, reporting remains disappointingly low. While just over two-thirds of those exposed have reported an incident, 60% of those who did report said either no action was taken (44%) or they were unsure of the outcome (16%). Among those who never reported, 44% cited the belief that reporting wouldn't make a difference - reflecting a troubling perception that the problem is unmanageable.Taking Action: Cross-Sector SolutionsIn response to these findings, GASA will host a webinar on November 13, 2025, at 11:00 AM (Brasília Time) titled "State of Scams in Brazil: Turning the Tide on Scams." The session will explore concrete strategies and coordinated actions to combat the growing scam epidemic in Brazil, featuring a distinguished panel of experts sharing insights from the legal, technology, and financial sectors.Register for the webinar: https://streamyard.com/watch/wGnWNAayknPDRead the report:Read the full reportNovember 13 webinarRead the full release, including methodology & boilerplateContact InformationMetje van der MeerMarketing Directormetje.vandermeer@gasa.orgSOURCE: Global Anti-Scam Alliance Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

香港, 2025年11月12日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 品創控股（8066.HK）近日公告，截至2025年9月30日止的九個月，其電子商務與人工智能（AI）語音技術兩大新業務合計錄得未經審核除稅前溢利超過7,500萬港元，顯示「私域電商+人工智能」的雙輪驅動戰略協同效應強勁，表現持續亮眼。此前的中期業績已顯示集團成功扭虧為盈，錄得公司擁有人應佔純利約4,040萬港元，其中私域電商動創與AI語音技術平台賽博幻境分別貢獻約5,490萬及600萬港元收入。此次九個月數據進一步證實，集團的戰略轉型已趨於穩健，並持續獲得財務上的正向回報。AI語音專利通過初審，進一步鞏固技術護城河更值得關注的是，賽博幻境所建立的獨特「情緒語音數據庫」。有別於傳統僅能識別語義的語音數據，該數據庫透過區塊鏈遊戲場景，採集了包含12種核心情緒維度的語音素材，有效解決當前語音AI「能聽懂字句，卻難理解情緒」的行業困境。基於此技術優勢，賽博幻境已就相關的模型訓練方法、語音辨識方法、裝置、設備及存儲介質等核心技術，向國家知識產權局提交發明專利申請，並已於2025年10月14日獲初步審查合格通知。待專利成功獲授權後，預期將用於開發專有AI語音技術算法，從而強化集團的競爭優勢，使集團在專業語音技術領域處於領先地位。數據驅動技術，技術賦能業務，協同效應顯著然而，這項專利的價值遠不止於技術壁壘本身，其真正的潛力在於與集團私域電商平台動創協同所構建的閉環生態，為持續升級提供了動力。動創擁有超過20萬高黏性會員，這些用戶授權的真實語音數據，為賽博幻境提供了穩定、高質量且具情緒維度的語音素材來源，有效支撐其情緒語音數據庫的持續擴充與優化。與此同時，AI語音技術的不斷迭代與升級，又進一步反哺電商業務。通過更精準的情緒識別與語義理解，動創平台能夠為用戶提供更個性化、更貼近真實需求的交互體驗，從而增強用戶黏性與平台競爭力，吸引更多用戶參與並貢獻數據。此等「數據驅動技術，技術賦能業務」的良性循環，不僅大幅降低了外部數據獲取的成本，更構建起競爭對手難以在短期內複製的數據壁壘與技術門檻。目前，已有3家領先企業就AI情緒語音數據庫的合作與集團展開磋商，進一步驗證了該技術的商業價值與市場潛力，為品創控股在情緒AI賽道的持續成長注入動力。據估算，全球情緒AI市場預計在2027年突破500億美元，品創控股有望憑藉其先發優勢及技術壁壘，在智能客服、人形機器人、心理健康等高增長的細分賽道中搶佔先機。在AI從「功能化」邁向「人性化」的產業升級浪潮中，品創控股憑藉「私域電商+人工智能」的雙輪驅動佈局，為未來成長開辟了更廣闊的空間。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

SINGAPORE, Nov 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Singapore Exchange Catalist-listed Mooreast Holdings Ltd. (“Mooreast” or the “Group”) announced today that it will commence feasibility studies this month to develop large-scale renewable energy (“RE”) projects of up to 500 megawatts (“MW”) in Timor-Leste.The feasibility studies have been confirmed to progress after Mooreast entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Secretario de Estado de Electricidade Agua e Saneamento (“SEEAS”), the secretariat for Electricity, Water and Sanitation under Timor-Leste’s Ministry of Public Works, to develop between 300 and 500 MW of floating RE over a five- to 10-year period.Mooreast said it will conduct due diligence and assessment of locations off Timor-Leste’s coastline that would be suitable for development of projects to generate energy from floating wind, solar, hydroelectric, tidal, current and wave.The LOI is part of a broader proposal for Mooreast to undertake a proposed RE Development Plan in two phases. The plan is intended to accelerate development of the country’s significant untapped RE resources, including excellent wind potential along the north and south coasts.Timor-Leste, a country of approximately 15,000 square kilometres that shares borders with Indonesia and Australia, currently relies mostly on diesel-fired power plants to meet its energy needs. It has targeted 100% national electrification by 2030 by substantially diversifying into RE.Timor-Leste gained full independence in 2002 and was formally admitted as the 11th member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations at the 47th ASEAN Summit held in Kuala Lumpur last month.As part of the RE Development Plan, Mooreast will also be engaged to upgrade grid transmission and infrastructure for RE integration, set up pilot microgrids for remote communities, explore the potential to export power and hydrogen fuel and introduce smart-grid technologies and systems for energy storage.Mooreast will have exclusivity for 12 months to conduct feasibility studies, evaluate and propose commercial and financing models. Both parties will then enter into a formal Project Development Agreement (“PDA”), likely in the first half of 2026.The PDA is expected to include, amongst others: i) joint-ventures to develop the projects; ii) establishing investment and financing models including green finance and fiscal incentives as well as co-investment opportunities with sovereign funds and financial institutions; iii) defining the responsibilities of the state-owned electricity and energy company, Electricidade de Timor-Leste (“EDTL”), relating to necessary rights and permits; iv) defining the role of Mooreast, including for Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation (“EPCI”) and floating RE; and v) the terms of long-term Power Purchase Agreements.A specialist in the offshore and marine sector providing mooring and rigging solutions, Mooreast is Asia’s only ultra-high power anchor designer and manufacturer. It has been expanding its presence in Europe and Asia amid increasing commercialisation of floating wind energy projects worldwide.Mr Eirik Ellingsen, CEO of Mooreast, said: “Timor-Leste has significant potential for floating renewable energy, which can be harnessed for economic growth and to achieve national goals of electrification and sustainability. We are excited by the opportunity to leverage our capabilities and networks to achieve a win-win formula.”About Mooreast Holdings Ltd.A leader in total mooring solutions, Mooreast offers design, engineering, fabrication, supply and logistics, installation and commissioning of mooring systems to the offshore oil & gas, marine and offshore renewable energy industries.With close to three decades of experience, Mooreast is applying its track record and expertise in mooring solutions to floating renewable energy projects, in particular floating offshore wind farms.
