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.
