Liquidity and Defaults Agile Group confirmed it failed to meet scheduled payments on bank loans, other borrowings and senior notes, triggering cross-default provisions. Offshore creditors have filed a winding-up petition, now adjourned to 12 October 2026. The company is negotiating a holistic offshore debt-restructuring plan, supported by a cash-flow forecasting model and ongoing discussions with major creditors.

Cost Control and Impairments Cost of sales declined 10.90% to RMB 12.91 billion, trailing the revenue contraction. Selling expenses jumped 58.90% to RMB 324 million due to higher commission ratios, while administrative expenses fell 23.90% to RMB 536 million following tighter cost controls. The Group booked RMB 1.85 billion of write-downs on properties under development and completed stock, and recorded an RMB 0.87 billion impairment on property, plant and equipment.

Strategic Outlook Management plans to prioritise project delivery, accelerate presales in core Pearl and Yangtze River Delta clusters, and pursue an agreement with offshore creditors in the second half of 2026 to stabilise the balance sheet. At period-end, Agile Group’s land reserves were concentrated 30% in the Pearl River Delta and 4% in the Yangtze River Delta.
