HRnetGroup Limited on Apr, 16 2026 released a detailed question-and-answer document addressing shareholder queries on its annual report for the year ended Dec, 31 2025.

The group reported that net profit after tax grew 14.3 % year on year, supported by a 3.0 % increase in revenue, a 0.6 % rise in gross profit, a 1.3 % uptick in selling, general and administrative expenses and a 44.5 % jump in other income.

Management attributed the earnings growth to its Asian-focused footprint—18 cities across 10 geographies—together with an 89 % revenue contribution from flexible staffing and an “entrepreneurial and lean” structure led by 47 business-leader co-owners.

Looking ahead, the company said first-quarter trading in 2026 is “similar” to the same period a year earlier, citing stable conditions in Singapore, a stronger pipeline in Taiwan, Malaysia and Indonesia, and uneven trends in Mainland China, Hong Kong SAR and Japan.

HRnetGroup reiterated its progressive dividend practice: two payouts a year targeting at least 50 % of net profit, with 78 % of 2025 profits to be distributed. The board also highlighted a 4.0-cent base dividend per share, a cash position of 336 million Singapore dollars and ongoing flexibility to deploy funds for share buybacks, special dividends or earnings-accretive acquisitions.

The company’s strategic priorities include expanding senior executive search, growing international contractor volumes, securing additional contracts for its Octomate workforce-management platform and pursuing opportunity-driven mergers and acquisitions that add sector or geographic depth.
