Jiangsu New Vision Automotive Electronics 2025 Annual Report: Key Highlights for Investors

1. Strategic and Financial Overview

• IPO and Hong Kong Listing: The Company was successfully listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 24 March 2026, issuing 16,226,500 shares at HKD44.20 per share. This represents a significant milestone, as all redemption liabilities on equity shares were derecognised and converted into ordinary shares at the offer price on the listing date. The Company also conducted a share subdivision, splitting each share of RMB1.00 into two shares of RMB0.50 immediately prior to listing.
• Capital Raised and Use of Proceeds: The IPO raised net proceeds of approximately HKD649.68 million. The funds remain unutilized as of the latest practicable date and are earmarked for:
  • Expansion and automation/intelligentization of production lines (46.7%)
  • Enhancement of R&D and development of new products (32.4%)
  • Potential strategic collaborations within the value chain (10.9%)
  • Working capital and general corporate purposes (10%)

  All proceeds are expected to be fully utilized by 2030.

• Results and Financial Position: For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Company reported a net loss of RMB668,996,000, a sharp increase from RMB137,851,000 in 2024. However, the adjusted (non-IFRS) loss for the year was RMB31,515,000, after adding back non-cash fair value losses on redemption liabilities, share-based payments, and listing expenses. The Group continues to face significant net liabilities (RMB1,559,083,000) and net current liabilities (RMB1,719,411,000) primarily due to the fair value of redemption liabilities on equity shares, which have since been eliminated post-listing.

2. Risks, Operational Challenges, and Corporate Governance

• Key Business Risks:
  • Highly competitive industry dynamics; risk of losing market leadership
  • Persistent net losses and negative operating cash flow raise concerns about future profitability
  • Customer concentration risk (82.8% of sales to five largest customers; 23.6% to the single largest customer)
  • Rapid technological change may render current products obsolete
  • Dependence on R&D performance and technology upgrades to maintain competitiveness
  • Potential reputational damage from defects in human-vehicle interaction solutions
• Legal and Regulatory Compliance: No material legal proceedings or regulatory non-compliance events occurred during the reporting period. The Company maintains robust compliance procedures and regular consultations with legal and compliance advisers.
• Corporate Governance: The Company adopted the CG Code and Model Code, with full compliance. The Board comprises a balanced mix of executive, non-executive, and independent directors, and established committees (Audit, Nomination, Remuneration) with clear responsibilities.
• Whistleblowing and Anti-Corruption: Comprehensive policies are in place, and regular training is provided to employees and management.

3. Shareholder Information and Capital Structure

• Dividend Policy: No dividends declared for 2025 (same as 2024). Future dividends will depend on profitability, cash flows, and PRC legal restrictions. PRC law requires at least 10% of after-tax profits to be set aside as statutory reserves before dividends can be paid.
• Major Shareholders: Several founders and strategic investors hold substantial interests, including Ms. Ye Jing, Ms. Guo Hui, Mr. Wang Zhenggang, Mr. Lyu Tao, Ms. Lyu Xianglian, and various investment partnerships. There is a high degree of joint ownership and concerted action among core shareholders.
• Remuneration of Directors and Senior Management: Total remuneration for 2025 was RMB6,952,000, including salaries, bonuses, pension contributions, and share-based payments. No inducement or compensation for loss of office was paid, and no remuneration waivers were made.
• Share Incentive Schemes: Several share incentive schemes were in effect, with 14.05% of total issued share capital allocated for equity incentives to key employees, subject to a 36-month lock-up post-listing. The share-based payment reserve is disclosed in the financial statements.
• No Equity-linked Agreements or Debentures: No such instruments were issued or outstanding as of 2025.
• Legal and Contractual Matters: No material related party transactions, connected transactions, or contracts with controlling shareholders during the year.
• Public Float: The Company has maintained the public float requirement post-listing.

4. Financial Risk Management and Outlook

• Financial Instruments and Risk Exposure:
  • Significant financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (redemption liabilities on equity shares), which were derecognised post-listing
  • Other exposures include bank borrowings, trade receivables, and payables, all managed with robust policies for credit, liquidity, and foreign currency risk
  • Liquidity is supported via bank loans, lease liabilities, and cash management
• Going Concern: Despite net liabilities at year-end, the directors prepared accounts on a going concern basis due to the conversion of redemption liabilities into equity upon listing, which substantially improved the balance sheet.
• Post-Balance Sheet Events:
  • Listing and derecognition of all redemption liabilities on equity shares, which is materially positive for the capital structure and reduces short-term financial risk
  • No material adverse change in financial or business condition since 31 December 2025
• Audit Opinion: The financial statements for 2025 were audited by Ernst & Young, who issued an unqualified opinion, affirming that the accounts present a true and fair view.

5. Price-Sensitive and Share Price Impacting Information

• Material Elimination of Redemption Liabilities: The conversion and derecognition of RMB1,970 million in redemption liabilities on equity shares immediately upon IPO is a significant de-risking event for the Company. This removes a major short-term balance sheet risk and potentially improves the equity base and future profitability.
• Large Untapped IPO Proceeds for Growth: The full net proceeds from the IPO (HKD649.68 million) remain available for strategic investments, production upgrades, R&D, and working capital—potentially supporting future revenue and profit growth.
• High Customer Concentration and Operating Loss: The continued high customer concentration and another year of losses are important risks for investors to monitor and may affect the share price if not addressed through diversification or operational improvement.
• R&D and Technological Advancement: The ongoing focus on R&D and new product development is critical for competitiveness in a rapidly evolving industry. Failure to innovate could result in lost market share and negatively impact the share price.
• Potential for Future Dividends: No dividends are declared for 2025, and future dividends depend on achieving profitability and sufficient distributable reserves.

6. Shareholder Actions and Rights

• Shareholder Meetings: Shareholders holding at least 10% may convene extraordinary meetings, and those with at least 1% may submit proposals for meetings. All resolutions are voted by poll with results published promptly.
• Communication Channels: Shareholders can direct enquiries or proposals via mail or email, and the Company maintains an investor relations website for updates and disclosures.
• No Pre-emptive Rights: PRC law and the Articles do not provide for pre-emptive rights for new share issues.

Conclusion

The 2025 Annual Report for Jiangsu New Vision Automotive Electronics Co., Ltd. presents a mixed picture for investors. While the successful IPO, elimination of redemption liabilities, and strong cash position for strategic growth are clear positives likely to support the share price, continued operating losses and ongoing customer concentration risks remain areas to monitor. The Company’s ability to deliver on R&D, diversify its customer base, and achieve profitability will be critical for future value creation.
