Ciprun Technology Holdings Issues Significant Profit Warning for FY2025

Key Points of the Report

• Substantial Increase in Expected Loss: Ciprun Technology Holdings Company Limited (“the Company”) has issued a profit warning, anticipating a significant increase in net loss for the financial year ended 31 December 2025. The loss is expected to be in the range of approximately RMB95 million to RMB100 million, which is more than double the previous year’s loss of around RMB45 million.
• Major Impairment Losses Identified: The surge in losses is attributed mainly to the recognition of impairment losses, including:
  • Impairment loss of approximately RMB42 million related to the goodwill of the Group’s intellectual property-related services cash-generating unit.
  • Impairment loss of approximately RMB15 million relating to the money lending cash-generating unit.
• Preliminary Figures: The numbers are based on an initial review of unaudited consolidated management accounts and available financial information. The final audited figures may differ.
• Timeline for Results Announcement: The official annual results for the year ended 31 December 2025 are expected to be published on or around 31 March 2026.

Key Information for Shareholders

• Potential Impact on Share Price: The announcement of a sharply higher loss than the prior year, especially as a result of large impairment charges, is highly price sensitive and may negatively affect investor sentiment and the Company’s share value.
• Uncertainty and Caution: As these figures are preliminary and have not yet been reviewed by the audit committee or independent auditors, shareholders are strongly advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Company’s securities until the official audited results are released.
• Possible Further Adjustments: The final loss amount may be subject to changes upon further review and audit of the annual results.

Further Details

The profit warning comes from the Board of Directors, including Chairman and CEO Mr. Kong Junmin, and is made in compliance with the disclosure requirements under Rule 13.09 of the Listing Rules and the Inside Information Provisions under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance.

The Company’s increased loss for FY2025 is mainly due to significant impairments in both its core intellectual property-related services and its money lending activities. These impairments signal notable challenges in the valuation and future cash-generating potential of these business units.

Investors should closely monitor the release of the audited annual results and any further disclosures from the Company as these could provide additional information on the underlying operational performance and any strategic responses to these impairment losses.

Board Composition

As of the date of the announcement, the executive Directors are Mr. Kong Junmin (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer), Mr. Zhu Min, and Ms. Yip Sum Yu, while the independent non-executive Directors are Mr. Li Yik Sang, Mr. Lee Kam Wing Victor, and Ms. Lu Yonghao.
