Yunnan Energy International Co. Limited posted a sharp swing to profit for the six months ended 30 June 2026, underpinned by resilient demand for photovoltaic modules and silicon materials.

Revenue and Earnings • Group revenue rose 3.5% year-on-year to HK$157.95 million. • Supply Chain Business sales advanced 17.5% to HK$155.01 million, offsetting a 85.8% slide in Distribution Business revenue to HK$2.94 million due to delivery timing. • Gross profit surged 232.7% to HK$17.00 million; gross margin expanded to 10.8% from 3.4%. • Net profit reached HK$8.53 million versus a HK$2.66 million loss a year earlier, aided by higher margins and HK$4.62 million dividend income from the 6.67% stake in Dayao Green Energy. • Basic EPS improved to HK0.031 from a loss of HK0.010 a year ago.

Cost and Expense Dynamics • Cost of sales fell 4.4% to HK$140.89 million, reflecting the lower unit cost of silicon-based products. • Selling and distribution expenses more than doubled to HK$3.78 million, mirroring increased logistics for bulk materials. • Administrative costs eased 4.2% to HK$5.10 million. • Finance costs declined 17.8% to HK$1.44 million on lower borrowings.

Balance-Sheet Highlights • Inventories contracted to HK$3.13 million from HK$40.66 million, mainly on reduced TCM-herb stock. • Trade receivables fell to HK$110.82 million (31 Dec 2025: HK$205.68 million) owing to quicker collection from silicon and PV customers. • Net current assets improved to HK$135.45 million; current ratio strengthened to 2.1 (31 Dec 2025: 1.5). • Interest-bearing debt dropped to HK$58.38 million, cutting the gearing ratio to 32.2% from 85.6%. • Cash and bank balances stood at HK$55.58 million.

Investment Portfolio • Fair value of the Dayao Green Energy stake increased to HK$58.34 million, representing 18.7% of total assets. • The Group injected an additional RMB3.43 million (HK$3.95 million) into the project during the period.

Capital Management and Dividends • No interim dividend was declared. • No pledged assets, contingent liabilities or material capital commitments were reported.

Strategic Outlook Management intends to: 1. Pursue at least RMB30 million in new Grade 3A hospital equipment contracts in Yunnan and Guizhou during 2H26. 2. Extend supply-chain reach via long-term agreements for new-materials, PV modules, coal and TCM products, while accelerating expansion across Asia, Europe and Latin America. 3. Leverage the parent company’s resources to scale up green-energy investments in Yunnan and Southeast Asia, building on experience from Dayao Green Energy.

The Board remains focused on parallel growth of the Distribution and Supply Chain businesses, tighter working-capital controls and further deleveraging to sustain profitability into the second half.
