CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of the Board of Dida Inc., I am pleased to present to you the annual report of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025. We would like to thank all Shareholders who have accompanied and supported the Company along the way.
In 2025, against a backdrop of macroeconomic pressure and intensified competition from low-priced ride-hailing services, we remained committed to serving our 410 million users by providing accessible, reliable and pleasant mobility solutions.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
During the Reporting Period, the Group’s revenue reached RMB502.4 million. The adjusted net profit (non-IFRS measure) was RMB137.9 million, allowing us to maintain profitability under our asset-light business model. Our gross transaction value amounted to RMB4.7 billion and the total number of orders reached 80.9 million.
Our core carpooling business continued to operate steadily. By year-end, our services covered 366 cities nationwide, and our platform connected approximately 21 million certified private car owners. In 2025, our carpooling gross transaction value reached RMB4.5 billion, with total orders of 76.5 million.
At the same time, 2025 marked a pivotal year as we transitioned from a single-focus carpooling platform to a more integrated mobility and vehicle services platform. We launched ride-hailing aggregation platform services to diversify our service offerings. This initiative enhances our service coverage by complementing carpooling’s “medium-to-long distance” and “scheduled” scenarios with “short distance” and “on-demand” user cases. In parallel, we commenced used car trading referral services to expand our business scope along the vehicle ownership lifecycle and enhance engagement within our car owner ecosystem.
In 2025, we continued to provide users with more cost-effective and friendly transportation options through innovative product models such as “station-based carpooling”. In 2025, the product saw increasing adoption and became a significant component of our value-driven offering. In 2025, we enhanced our “co-travel invitations” feature to foster a semi-familiar social ecosystem, recognizing that many users travel along fixed routes and schedules and prefer to ride with familiar co-travelers.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
On behalf of the Board, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our private car owners, passengers, drivers, employees and all business partners for their long-term trust and support. We look forward to continuing Dida’s growth and transformation with all Shareholders.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a leading technology-driven mobility platform in China, dedicated to meeting the travel needs of our users while avoiding the addition of more vehicles and reducing urban congestion. By leveraging carpooling services, we offer a shared mobility model. We enable private car owners to share their idle seats with passengers heading in the same direction, thereby lowering travel costs for both parties. Our services provide users with an affordable, reliable travel option and a warm travel experience while effectively addressing the current supply-demand imbalance in transportation. Through our advanced algorithmic capabilities, we continuously optimize ride-matching routes and product models, building and expanding a sustainable mobility ecosystem. Additionally, we offer smart taxi services, using technology to enhance traditional taxi operations. This includes digitizing the hailing process and improving passenger experience, driver service, and operational management efficiency across the industry.
We provide carpooling services primarily through the Dida Mobility App and WeChat Mini-program, and to a lesser extent, through collaboration with third-party platforms. Private car owners may post their itineraries, and carpooling riders may request a carpooling ride on a pre-arranged basis on our platform. We apply sophisticated matching algorithms to pair up riders with private car owners if they are heading in similar directions at compatible times. Our mobile app provides various features and functionalities for riders and private car owners throughout the carpooling trip. We generate revenues primarily from charging service fees to private car owners providing carpooling rides on our platform.
As of December 31, 2025, we offered our carpooling services in 366 cities nationwide and our platform had a total of approximately 21 million certified private car owners.
In 2025, we launched ride-hailing aggregation platform services to diversify our service offerings. Such services are intended to complement our carpooling business by addressing additional mobility scenarios, including short-to-medium distance and immediate travel needs, in addition to the medium-to-long distance and pre-arranged travel scenarios typically served by carpooling. This expansion broadens the range of mobility options available to users across different travel scenarios. Orders generated from ride-hailing aggregation platform services exhibited a relatively higher proportion of short to medium distance trips compared with typical carpooling platforms, reflecting the natural synergy between our existing user base and ride-hailing scenarios. By leveraging our large user base, we also commenced used car trading referral services to expand our business scope along the vehicle ownership lifecycle and enhance engagement within our car owner ecosystem.
We continue to enhance our safety and risk management framework. We upgraded our end-to-end trip safety system through the deployment of AI-driven risk identification models to detect and intervene in potentially abnormal activities. We conducted over one million proactive alert calls during the year. We also strengthened our anti-fraud mechanisms to identify and address order-grabbing tools and abnormal transaction behaviors in real time.
Our total revenue was RMB502.4 million in 2025, compared to RMB787.2 million in 2024. Our adjusted net profit (nonIFRS measure) was RMB137.9 million in 2025, compared to RMB211.4 million in 2024. As of December 31, 2025, Dida Mobility App had over 415 million registered users[(1)] . As of December 31, 2025, our total gross transaction value[(2) ] amounted to RMB4,679 million. Our total orders reached 80.9 million.
Notes:
(1) registered users: The number of users on our platform assessed through their unique cell phone numbers
(2) gross transaction value: total value of rides in the form of ride fair paid by riders, without adjustment of applicable incentives, or tolls (for combined orders, the total value of rides of the combined orders)
Annual Report 2025 5
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OUTLOOK
Our business faced considerable challenges in 2025. Amid sustained macroeconomic headwinds, competition within the mobility services industry intensified. More low-priced ride-hailing products appeared in the market, placing ongoing pressure on our operations and market positioning. We believe carpooling in China is still at its early stage of development, with significant market demand yet to be fully released and the benefits of carpooling not fully recognized by the public. We remain committed to innovation as we continue to develop our unique competitive strengths and value around mobility scenarios to better serve our user base.
At the same time, 2025 marked a pivotal year as we transitioned from a single-focus carpooling platform toward a more integrated mobility and vehicle services platform. Building upon our large accumulated user base, driver resources and algorithmic capabilities, we plan to further develop our ride-hailing aggregation platform services and other mobilityrelated services and continue to expand our service offerings.

• Provision of mobility-related services. We derive revenue primarily from mobility-related services, comprising (1) provision of carpooling marketplace services, which derive revenue primarily from charging service fees to private car owners providing carpooling rides on our platform; (2) provision of smart taxi services, which derive revenue primarily from taxi online-hailing services; and (3) provision of ride-hailing aggregation platform services, which derive revenue primarily from serving our passengers with drivers from other legitimate ride-hailing platforms. Our revenue generated from the provision of mobility-related services decreased by 35.8% from RMB759.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB487.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to decrease in carpooling marketplace services as a result of the intensified competition within the mobility services industries, which resulted in a decrease in completed orders. In 2025, our carpooling gross transaction value decreased to RMB4,511 million and our carpooling orders reached 76.5 million.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- Provision of advertising and other services. We provide advertising spaces on our mobile apps to third-party merchants and derive revenue primarily from charging advertising fees. We also charge commissions to thirdparty service providers of automobile value-added services based on the sales leads generated or number of new customers they acquire through our platform. Our revenue generated from the provision of advertising and other services decreased by 46.7% from RMB27.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB14.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the gradual decrease in advertising budgets of our branded corporate clients as a result of the macroeconomic conditions.
Cost of services
Our cost of services decreased by 23.0% from RMB220.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB169.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Our cost of services related to the provision of advertising and other services decreased by 53.3% from RMB3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to (1) the decrease in the amount of our advertising and other services, and (2) the increased portion of our programmatic advertising services, which was more cost-effective than the direct sales of our in-app advertising.

Provision of mobility-related services. Our gross profit margin for the provision of mobility-related services decreased from 71.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024 to 65.6% for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the significant decreases in revenue of provision of mobility-related services caused by a decline in completed orders. However, the fixed costs portion of the operation and maintenance service fees did not decrease significantly with the decline in orders.
-
Provision of advertising and other services. Our gross profit margin for the provision of advertising and other services increased from 85.8% for the year ended December 31, 2024 to 87.6% for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the expansion of our programmatic advertising services, which generally carry a higher gross profit margin than direct in-app advertising sales.
Other income
Our other income decreased by 12.9% from RMB20.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB17.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the decrease in interest income from bank balances, time deposits and restricted cash, as well as the decrease in interest income from loan to a related company.
Other gains and losses
Our other gains was RMB66.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to RMB4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the gains on fair value changes of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss mainly as a result of the investment in Uxin Limited. Please refer to announcement of the Company dated November 4, 2024 for further details of this investment.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Reversal of impairment losses/impairment losses confirmed under expected credit loss model
We recorded reversal of impairment losses under expected credit loss model of RMB19.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to impairment losses under expected credit loss model of RMB18.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was resulting from the reversal of impairment of the loan to Uxin Limited, a connected person of the Group. The loan was fully repaid on April 9, 2025.
Selling and marketing expenses
Our selling and marketing expenses decreased by 28.8% from RMB171.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB121.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to (1) our prudent promotional strategy and more precise marketing approach enabled by algorithms, which resulted in reductions in user subsidies and incentives and marketing and promotion expenses, and (2) a decrease in outsourcing expenses for customer services resulting from the decrease in orders.
Administrative expenses
Our administrative expenses increased by 94.6% from RMB37.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB73.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to one-time employee severance costs for organizational streamlining and higher employee bonus.
Research and development expenses
Our research and development expenses decreased by 24.8% from RMB139.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB104.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in the number of our research and development personnel and research and development employee expenses resulting from organizational streamlining.
Change in fair value of the Preferred Shares
We did not record gain or loss from change in fair value of the Preferred Shares for the year ended December 31, 2025. We recorded a gain from change in fair value of the Preferred Shares of RMB870.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Upon the Listing of the Company, the Preferred Shares were automatically converted into 618,319,313 ordinary shares of the Company at the fair value of HK$6.00 per share (approximately RMB5.48). Please refer to the disclosure in Note 30 to the consolidated financial statements on page 169 in this annual report.
Share-based payment expenses
Our share-based payment expenses was RMB8.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compare to RMB40.0 million the year ended December 31, 2024. Our share-based payment expenses primarily reflected the issuance of share-based awards under the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Schemes and the Post-IPO RSU Scheme (as defined in the Prospectus). The decrease was primarily due to the reversal of share-based compensation expenses arising from share options, resulting from the forfeiture of unvested options granted to the resigned employees as of December 31, 2025.
Finance costs
Our finance costs decreased by 34.2% from RMB0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in interest on lease liabilities.

Annual Report 2025 9
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Profit before taxation
As a result of the foregoing, we recorded profit before taxation of RMB128.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to profit before taxation of RMB1,018.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Income tax credit/(expense)
Our income tax credit was RMB1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and our income tax expense to RMB14.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to the recognition of tax losses as deferred tax assets, which result in a net tax credit for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Profit for the year
As a result of the foregoing, our net profit decreased by 87.1% from RMB1,004.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to RMB129.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The net profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 25.8%, as compared with 127.6% for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Adjusted net profit for the year (non-IFRS measure)
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements which are presented under IFRS, we use adjusted net profit (non-IFRS measure) as an additional financial measure, which is not required by or presented in accordance with IFRS. We define adjusted net profit (non-IFRS measure) as profit for the year adjusted for share-based payment expenses, change in fair value of Preferred Shares, and listing expense, which were either non-cash items or nonrecurring expenses. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our consolidated results of operations in the same manner as they help our management. However, our presentation of the adjusted net profit (non-IFRS measure) may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure presented by other companies. The use of this non-IFRS measure has limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for analysis of, our results of operations or financial condition as reported under IFRS.

Sources of liquidity and working capital
For the year ended December 31, 2025, our primary use of cash was to fund our working capital requirements and other recurring expenses. We financed our capital expenditures and working capital requirements primarily through cash generated from our operating activities, net proceeds from the Global Offering and other fund-raising activities from time to time. As of December 31, 2025, the Group had not used any financial instruments for hedging purposes.
Our current assets increased from approximately RMB1,752.9 million as of December 31, 2024 to approximately RMB1,897.4 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily due to the increase in bank balances resulted from net cash generated from operating activities.
Cash flows
Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consisted of cash at banks and time deposits with initial term less than three months. As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were denominated in RMB, HKD and USD. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased from RMB1,057.3 million as of December 31, 2024 to RMB967.0 million as of December 31, 2025, primary due to the increase in cash used in purchase of time deposits with initial term of over three months.

Foreign Currency Risk Management
Our functional currency is RMB. Foreign currency risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognized assets and liabilities are dominated in a currency that is not our functional currency. We expose ourselves to foreign currency risk because certain of our other payables, other receivables, time deposits and cash and cash equivalents are denominated in foreign currencies. We will mitigate such a risk by constantly reviewing the economic situation and foreign currency risk, and applying hedging measures when necessary.

The Board has established the Remuneration Committee to review and recommend the remuneration and compensation packages of the Directors and senior management of the Company, and the Board, with the advice from the Remuneration Committee, will review and determine the remuneration and compensation packages taking into account salaries paid by comparable companies, time commitment and responsibilities of the Directors and senior management and performance of the Group.

We endeavor to reduce negative environmental impacts through our commitment to energy saving and sustainable development. We will also focus on embracing diversity within our organization and equal and respectful treatment of all of our employees in their hiring, training, wellness and professional and personal development.

SUMMARY OF TERMS
- (a) Purposes of the Post-IPO RSU Scheme
The purposes of the Post-IPO RSU Scheme are: (i) to recognize the contributions by grantees and to give incentives thereto in order to retain them for the continual operation and development of the Group; and (ii) to attract suitable personnel for further development of the Group.
(b) Awards
An award of RSUs under the Post-IPO RSU Scheme (“ Award ”) gives a selected person (as set out in paragraph (d) below) in the Post-IPO RSU Scheme a conditional right when the granted RSUs vest to obtain Shares as determined by the Board or its authorized committee or person (the “ Administrator ”) in its absolute discretion.
(c) Post-IPO RSU Mandate Limit
The maximum aggregate number of Shares underlying all grants of RSUs pursuant to the Post-IPO RSU Scheme (including Awards that have lapsed but excluding Awards that have been cancelled in accordance with the rules of the Post-IPO RSU Scheme) will not exceed 99,397,985 Shares, representing approximately 10% of the number of Shares in issue on the Listing Date (“ Post-IPO RSU Mandate Limit ”), among which, the maximum number of Shares may be granted to Service Providers (as defined below) under the Post-IPO RSU Scheme is 9,939,798 Shares, representing approximately 1% of the number of Shares in issue on the Listing Date (the “ Service Provider Sublimit ”). The Service Provider Sublimit was determined based on 10% of the Scheme Mandate and estimated based on the possible number of award Shares that the Company intended to grant to Service Providers and the Company’s future business and development plan. This Post-IPO RSU Mandate Limit (including the Service Provider Sublimit) may be refreshed from time to time pursuant to terms of the Post-IPO RSU Scheme.

==> picture [37 x 196] intentionally omitted <==
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
The Board (including the independent non-executive Directors) is of the view that, apart from the contributions from employees and directors of the Group, the success of our Group might also come from efforts and contributions from non-employees (including Service Providers) who have contributed to the Group or may contribute to the Group in the future. The eligibility of Service Providers to participate in the Post-IPO RSU Scheme is consistent with the purpose of such scheme, which enables the Group to preserve its cash resources and use share incentives to encourage persons outside of the Group to contribute to the Group and align the mutual interests of each party, as the Company and the Service Providers, by holding on to equity incentives, will mutually benefit from the long term growth of the Group.

Administration

Save as disclosed below, we did not have any material acquisitions and disposals and significant investments for the year ended December 31, 2025.
During the Reporting Period, we invested in Wealth Management Products (“ WMPs ”) to preserve the time value of our cash reserves. Each of the WMPs is characterized by its nature of satisfactory liquidity, and the subscriptions of WMPs were used by the Company for treasury management purpose in order to maximize its return on the surplus cash received from its business operations. The Group expects that the WMPs will earn a better yield than the prevailing fixedterm deposit interest rates generally offered by commercial banks in the PRC and in Hong Kong while at the same time offer flexibility to the Group in terms of treasury management. As such, the Board is of the view that the subscriptions of the WMPs are in the interests of the Company and the shareholders of the Company as a whole.

Save for the deviation from code provision C.2.1 as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code, which is explained in the following paragraph, the Company has complied with all applicable code provisions as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code during the Reporting Period. The code provision C.2.1 as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code stipulates that the responsibilities between the chairman and chief executive of a listed issuer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. Mr. SONG Zhongjie is currently serving the dual roles of the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, to ensure consistent leadership to advance long-term strategy and allow deepening the monetization capabilities and optimizing operating efficiency of the Group. The Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. The Company will continue to enhance its corporate governance practices appropriate to the conduct and growth of its business and to review such practices from time to time to ensure that they comply with statutory and professional standards and align with the latest developments.

Annual Report 2025 45
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT
To the best knowledge of the Directors, the Directors and senior management have no financial, business, family or other material/relevant relationships with one another. The Company has received written annual confirmation from each independent non-executive Director of his/her independence pursuant to the requirements of the Listing Rules. The Company considers all independent non-executive Directors to be independent with reference to the independence guidelines set out in the Listing Rules.
The Company has established mechanisms to ensure independent views and input are available to the Board and conducted review of such mechanisms on an annual basis.
All Directors are entitled to seek, at the Company’s expense, independent professional advice reasonably necessary for discharging their duties as Directors.
The Nomination Committee annually assesses the independence of each independent non-executive Director during his term of appointment. The Company received from each of the independent non-executive Directors a written confirmation of his/her independence pursuant to Rule 3.13 and paragraph 12B of Appendix D2 to the Listing Rules. Based on such confirmations and the report of the Nomination Committee, the Company considers that all the independent non-executive Directors continue to demonstrate strong independence and all remain independent. The Board has reviewed the implementation and effectiveness of the mechanisms and considered them to be effective for the Reporting Period.
A3. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The Chairman of the Board is responsible for providing leadership for the Board, ensuring that the Board works effectively and performs its responsibilities, and that all key and appropriate issues are discussed by it in a timely manner. The Chairman also ensures all Directors are properly briefed on issues arising at Board meetings and all Directors receive adequate information, which must be accurate, clear complete and reliable, in a timely manner. The Chairman acts as the person who primarily responsible for drawing up and approving the agenda for each board meeting and will take into account any appropriate matters proposed by the other Directors for inclusion in the agenda. The Chairman takes primary responsibility for ensuring that good corporate governance practices and procedures are established and encourage Directors’ active contribution to the Board’s affairs and provide an environment to Directors to voice their concerns. He also takes the lead to ensure that the Board acts in the best interest of the Company and promote a culture of openness and debate. The Chief Executive Officer generally focuses on the business and day-to-day management and operations of the Company.
Pursuant to code provision C.2.1 as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code, the responsibilities between the chairman and chief executive of a listed issuer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. Mr. SONG Zhongjie is currently serving the dual roles of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer since July 11, 2014. Although such practice deviates from code provision C.2.1 as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code, the Board believes that vesting the roles of both the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership to advance longterm strategy, and allowing for further deepening the monetization capabilities and optimizing operating efficiency of the Group.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT
In addition, the Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively, given that (i) decisions to be made by the Board requires approval by at least a majority of the Directors; (ii) all the Directors are aware of and undertake to fulfill their fiduciary duties as Directors, which require, among others, that he/she acts for the benefit and in the best interests of the Company as a whole and will make decisions for the Company accordingly; (iii) the balance of power and authority is ensured by the operations of the Board, one-third of which is represented by independent non-executive Directors; and (iv) the overall strategic and other key business, financial, and operational policies of the Company are made collectively after thorough discussion at both the Board and senior management levels.
Therefore, the Board considers that the deviation from the code provision C.2.1 as set out in Part 2 of the CG Code is appropriate in such circumstances. The Company will continue to enhance its corporate governance practices appropriate to the conduct and growth of its business and to review such practices from time to time to ensure that they comply with statutory and professional standards and align with the latest development.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE REPORT
STATEMENT FROM THE BOARD
Dear Stakeholders,
The Company is delighted to present our Environmental, Social, and Governance Report for the fiscal year of 2025. We place the sustainable development goal at the forefront of our long-term objectives, integrating climate-related issues and environment, social and governance elements into the long-term planning of our business strategy, while the Board, as the most important leadership role in the Group, has overall responsibility for steering, directly managing and overseeing environment, social and governance issues across the Group.
We are a technology-driven platform, aiming to create more transit capacity with less environmental impact by primarily providing carpooling marketplace services to fill up idle seats on private passenger cars. We also provide smart taxi services, aiming to improve the efficacy and efficiency of relevant stakeholders in the taxi industry in China. We are building a human-centric super mobility platform that maximizes the potential of existing vehicles while maintaining environmental sustainability.
The Company does not operate in a highly-polluting industry, and its operations primarily involve online platform development. However, we regard environment protection as an important corporate responsibility, and are committed to promoting corporate social responsibility and sustainable development as well as integrating it into all major aspects of our business operations. Our Board has adopted a comprehensive policy on environmental, social and corporate governance responsibilities (the “ ESG Policy ”) on June 13, 2024 in accordance with the Listing Rules, which sets forth our corporate social responsibility objectives and provides guidance on practicing corporate social responsibility in our daily operations.
We have set clear short-term and long-term sustainability visions and goals, continuously progressing toward the Chinese government’s vision of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. We have established relevant emission reduction targets and corresponding strategies to integrate sustainability considerations into our strategic planning, business model and other decision-making processes. The Board regularly monitors and reviews the effectiveness of management practices, including reviewing the Group’s environment, social and governance performance and adjusting action plans accordingly. The effective implementation of environment, social and governance policy relies on the cooperation of different departments, to achieve consistent and expected performance in terms of reaching the emission reduction and energy saving targets. During the Reporting Year, the Group focused on enhancing employee benefits and organizing teambuilding activities to foster a stronger sense of belonging among employees. In addition, the Company is committed to maintaining sustainable investment to the community by engaging and advocating public welfare activities, and pursuing higher social responsibilities to contribute to the society.
The Company endeavours to ensure the establishment of applicable and effective risk management and internal control system to oversee the identification and assessment of environment, social and governance, and climate-related risks and opportunities. We also value the communication with the stakeholders. We regularly review our communication channels and platforms with our stakeholders to ensure information flows to capture the concerns of key stakeholders on issues that have a significant impact on our business.
Looking ahead, the Board will continue in reviewing and monitoring the Company’s environment, social and governance performance and continue to provide stakeholders with reliable, consistent and comparable key environment, social and governance information, so as to work together for a better environment.

Materiality Assessment
The Company identifies issues for disclosure in the ESG Report through internal and external materiality assessment.

They have expressed their opinions and recommendation on the issues related to the Company’s operation. We determine the level of disclosure in this ESG Report based on the materiality of the issue to the business and its importance to stakeholders. Topics in the upper right quadrant of the materiality matrix are of relatively higher importance to both stakeholders and the Group’s business. Concurrently, climate-related risks and opportunities are also identified as key issues and can reasonably be expected to impact the Group’s capital and financial performance in the short, medium, or long term.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE REPORT
Climate Change
The Company deeply acknowledged that climate change is a common challenge for all mankind, while China, the biggest developing country in the world, attaches great importance to tackling climate change. The Chinese government has decided to adopt more vigorous policies and measures and made two significant decisions in 2020: striving to achieve carbon peaking by 2030 and carbon neutrality in 2060. In alignment with national and local policies, enterprises have gradually begun implementing measures to combat climate change. The Company also deeply understands the operational risks and impacts that climate change is bringing. The Company plans to progressively respond to these commitments by setting a short-term target: using 2023 as the baseline year, to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon dioxide emissions by three percent by 2028. With the expansion of our business scope, the practices of energy saving should be further enhanced to respond to the goal and achieve sustainable development.

Climate-related Risks and Opportunities
We monitor environmental, social and climate-related risks and opportunities that may impact our business, strategy and financial performance and evaluate the magnitude of resulting impact over the short, medium and long-term horizon. The demand for our services depends on a stable natural and social environment. Epidemics, extreme weathers, earthquakes and other natural disasters will pose negative impact on our operations and our users.
The Company highly values our customers. Over the years, the Company has seized different opportunities to expand the business, such as leveraging the Company’s online carpooling marketplace to reduce carbon emissions arising from transportation. These measures allowed our environment to become more sustainable and fulfilled our commitment to resources management and environmental protection.
The Group has identified a range of climate-related risks and opportunities that are material to our assets, operations, and services across current/near-term, short-term (by 2030), medium-term (by 2050), and long-term (by 2080) time horizons, along with their potential impacts on our business strategy, operations, and financial performance. We have assessed the impacts (including financial impacts) of these climate-related risks and opportunities according to timeframes aligned with our strategic planning. In its strategic planning, the Group formulates corresponding response measures based on their economic benefits and acceptable risk levels. Factors considered in the climate risk assessment include geographical location, time horizons, uncertainties, complex interrelationships between different risks, and systemic impacts. As climate-related impacts continue to evolve and the Group enhances its climate adaptation and mitigation measures where feasible, we will review the climate risk assessment results annually to ensure they reflect the latest developments, while also adjusting our strategic planning as necessary. Climate-related physical risks and transition risks with higher risk ratings, as well as various types of climate-related opportunities, are further discussed below.

METRICS AND TARGETS
GHG Emission
In response to the society’s gradual concern on GHG emissions, climate change and other related issues, the Company encourages employees to adopt energy-saving measures in the office to reduce GHG emissions. Please refer to section headed “Use of Resources” for detailed measures. During the Reporting Year, the Company’s GHG emission data was as follows:
==> picture [469 x 93] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
GHG emissions [1] Unit 2025 2024 Change
Scope 1 [2] tonnes CO2-equivalent 0 0 —
Scope 2 (location-based) [3] tonnes CO2-equivalent 100 154 -35%
Total GHG Emission tonnes CO2-equivalent 100 154 -35%
GHG Emission Intensity tonnes CO2-equivalent/m [2 4] 0.05 0.05 —
----- End of picture text -----
The Company’s primary GHG emissions are entirely attributable to purchased electricity. In this year, the total GHG emissions were approximately 100 tonnes CO2-equivalent (2024: approximately 154 tonnes CO2-equivalent), representing a decrease of approximately 35% as compared with the previous year, mainly due to the decreased electricity consumption in office. There was no scope 1 GHG emissions because the Company had no fossil fuel consumption during the Reporting Year. Looking ahead, we will continue in implementing energy conservation measures and enhancing in tracking the amount of GHG emissions of the Group.
Our business model has enabled us to contribute to a cleaner environment by unleashing idle transit capacity without putting more vehicles on the road. The scope 3 carbon emissions during our ordinary course of business mainly relates to the emission from the vehicles of private car owners and taxi drivers on our platform. In 2023, 2024 and 2025, our carpooling marketplace services helped reduce approximately 1.3 million tonnes, 1.3 million tonnes, and 0.86 million tonnes of carbon dioxide, respectively. The calculation methodology involves multiplying the difference in carbon emissions between carpooling and other private transportation modes (such as private car trips) for the same travel distance by the total travel distance of carpooling trips on our platform in each respective year. Going forward, we expect to help to reduce over 1.0 million tonnes of carbon dioxide each year for the next three years.
We have launched various initiative to encourage green traveling and reduce the scope 3 carbon emissions in consistency with our business culture. For example, we participated in formulating the carpooling carbon emission reduction standards, “Technical Specification for Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions from Private Carpooling Travels” (《私人小客車合乘出行項目溫室氣體減排量評估技術規範》), which was issued by the China Association for Certification and Accreditation (中國認證認可協會) in 2021, contributing to the standardized assessment of carpooling carbon emission and the promotion of green transportation. In May 2022, we reached a strategic cooperation with China Emissions Exchange (廣州碳排放權交易所), aiming to reduce carbon footprint of people’s travels, promote incentivized carbon mitigation projects among individuals and small businesses, and support green finance and ESGrelated investment projects. We also incentivize users of our platform to reduce their carbon emissions. We monitor the private car owners’ travel data and provide achievement badges to recognize their emission reduction and environmental protection contribution. In addition, we encourage private car owners of battery electric vehicles to take more orders on our platform by providing operational incentives for them.
1 The calculations of the corresponding GHG emission assessment data and the emission factors used for the calculations are based on international and national standards, including “The Greenhouse Gas Protocol: A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard” issued by the World Resources Institute and World Business Council for Sustainable Development, the “How to Prepare An ESG Report” and its Annex “Appendix 2: Reporting Guidance on Environmental KPIs” issued by the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, the Emission Factors for Electricity Carbon Dioxide and “Sixth Assessment Report on Climate Change by IPCC”. Any discrepancies between totals and the sum of individual figures are due to rounding.
2 Scope 1: The direct emission from the business operations owned or controlled by the Company, including the emission from mobile combustion sources.
3 Scope 2: The “indirect energy” emissions from the internal purchased electricity consumption by the Company.
4 During the Reporting Year, the total gross floor area covered within the Company’s reporting scope was approximately 1,843 m[2] , compared to 2,847 m[2] in 2024.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
Emissions
Policy of the Company, Laws and Regulations Related to Emissions
Regarding the nature of the business, the Company does not generate a large amount of industrial pollutants or have a significant impact on the environment, including air pollutants and hazardous waste. Therefore, the Company is not required to apply for environmental licenses or permits, nor are there any environmental laws and regulations with significant impact on the Company. The Company closely monitors the development of relevant environmental regulations to ensure that the Group’s operations are in line with the concept of environmental protection. During the Reporting Year, the Company did not receive any fine, complaint or warning related to any non-compliance in respect of GHG emissions, harmful gas emissions, air, noise, water pollution or waste emissions. During the Track Record Period and the Reporting Year, we were not subject to any material fine, claim or administrative penalties arising from noncompliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations.
In line with the national policy on energy conservation and emission reduction, we have set clear emission reduction targets. With 2023 as the baseline year and by 2028, the short-term goal is to reduce all emissions (including air pollutants, GHG, hazardous and non-hazardous waste, and sewage), energy use (including electricity), and resource consumption (including water and paper) by 3%; the medium – to long-term goal is to reduce 20% by 2038 and to gradually adopt renewable energy sources and use products with low power consumption, maintain a steady pace of progress, and promote green development.
We have established a series of key performance indicators to constrain and guide our business operations. We have also implemented internal policies to reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to the overall environmental sustainability in China through our pro-ESG service offerings. This section sets forth the key metrics of our ESG performance during the Reporting Year.

Operating Practices
Supply Chain Management
The Company has formulated its Procurement Management System. We typically select suppliers based on a number of criteria, including business needs, brand reputation, quality of products or services, price competitiveness, supply capabilities and conflicts of interests. Before engaging a new supplier or including a new supplier into the approved supplier list, the Company performs background checks on the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System regarding the relevant supplier, to ensure that all qualified suppliers’ documents comply with the relevant national laws and regulations. No disapproved suppliers are accepted. At the end of each year, the department in charge of procurement evaluates and summarizes the annual procurement situation and submits it to the person in charge of the department for review. The Company will take measures to optimize any weaknesses or problems in the procurement process.
Our suppliers include primarily third-party payment processors, insurance providers, customer service outsourcing vendors, marketing service providers, and server hosting, cloud computing, software service and other technology service providers. We have 63 main suppliers in total.
We operate our carpooling marketplace service mainly through Dida Mobility App and Dida WeChat Mini-program. Private car owners may post their itineraries, and carpooling riders may request a carpooling ride on a pre-arranged basis, through our platform. We apply a sophisticated matching algorithm to pair up riders with private car owners as potential matches if they are heading in the similar direction at compatible time. As of December 31, 2025, we offered our carpooling marketplace services in 366 cities across China, with 20.7 million certified private car owners registered in our platform accumulatively. Additionally, we offer smart taxi services, using technology to enhance traditional taxi operations. This includes digitizing the hailing process and improving passenger experience, driver service, and operational efficiency across the industry.

Safety and quality control
According to the Guiding Opinions on Deepening Reform and Promoting the Sound Development of the Taxi Industry (《關於深化改革推進出租汽車行業健康發展的指導意見》) promulgated by the General Office of the State Council, the Company is committed to enhancing its service standards and oversight capabilities to promote the sustainable and healthy development of the taxi industry and better meet the travel needs of the public. Trust and safety are our top priorities in ensuring a high-quality user experience on our platform. The Company strictly monitors our platform to ensure the safety of passengers using the platform and the quality of services. For drivers, we conduct online background checks to screen existing and potential private car owners (including their vehicles) and identify those who are not eligible to use our platform according to applicable laws and regulations or our internal standards. To further ensure travel safety, we have taken various measures to verify driver qualifications and backgrounds. With the assistance of our partner credit investigation platforms, we can verify the authenticity of documents and information submitted by drivers. Our collaboration with public security authorities allows us to cross-check driving and criminal records, both of which are maintained in nationwide databases. Our platform extends similar security mechanisms to private car owners to ensure protections comparable to those provided for passengers.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
If any user perceives any personal safety threat during a travel, including verbal abuse, physical assault, unlawful detention or sexual harassment, they can contact dedicated internal customer service representatives of our platform for help at any time. In addition, through monitoring trips in real time, we can take proactive measures on deemed high-risk trips, such as those involving significant detours or prolonged suspicious stops. In such cases, our platform will issue alerts to passengers, and our customer service representatives will call passengers to ensure their safety. In severe situations, we will notify the police and assist with any necessary legal proceedings. To more effectively manage user behavior, our platform has established a behavior and credit scoring system. Each user starts with an initial behavior score of 12 points, and violations will result in deductions. The behavior score resets automatically every 90 days. We have issued specific rules for passengers, private car owners and taxi drivers respectively. Violations by private car owners include reckless driving, smoking in the car, order-jumping, off-platform transactions, and manipulating passenger feedback. Violations by taxi drivers include reckless driving, unnecessary detours, activating the taxi meter before the trip begins, and failing to display the taxi service supervision card. Passenger violations include late arrivals, order-jumping, smoking in the car, improper order cancellations, payment defaults, and actions that endanger safe driving. Users who lose all behavior scores will be subject to behavior sanctions, including temporary and permanent bans.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Furthermore, our platform has established the Dida Carpooling Convention outlining key carpooling rules and five core carpooling behavioral norms, with a view to ensuring an optimal carpooling experience for all passengers.
When users utilize our services on our platform, our algorithm facilitates the matching of supply and demand between car owners and passengers. The algorithm will also automatically analyze the service fulfillment process, detect trip anomalies, and promptly intercept harmful information or report dangerous behavior. The Company reviews the mechanisms, models, data and application outcomes of existing algorithms at least once every quarter. The key areas include compliance assessment covering personal information, featured information or label content used by the algorithm, differentiated pricing and reasonable subsidies, as well as potential updates to privacy policies and other ethical considerations. We have regulated our algorithmic applications according to the PRC laws and regulations relating to the Internet and data information as well as the actual policies of the Company.

Product return policy
We encourage platform users to understand and accommodate delays or missed appointments of car owners and passengers due to special circumstances. Meanwhile, our platform will gradually improve the system for determining responsibility and compensation for delays, no-shows and unreasonable cancellations to help resolve disputes between the two ride-sharing parties.
After-sales service and complaint resolution
The Company is committed to enhancing user satisfaction by providing high-quality customer service. We primarily provide customer services through outsourced customer service representatives who assist our users via telephone hotlines and online inquiry systems, both of which are integrated with our internal monitoring systems. These customer service representatives are primarily responsible for guiding users and addressing their preliminary questions. In addition, we have a dedicated team of complaint specialists. As of December 31, 2025, our complaint specialist team consisted of 10 in-house employees and 24 outsourced professionals with better communication skills and extensive experience in addressing user concerns. Our complaint specialists are primarily responsible for making phone calls to users and resolving issues, such as ride fare disputes during trips. Compared to other customer service staff, our complaint specialists are granted greater authority, including the ability to issue cash coupons to user accounts, cancel ride fares, and access trip routes and voice recordings, which allows them to directly handle and resolve user complaints.
User complaints typically relate to unpunctuality, no-shows, location issues, attitude problems, fare disputes, lost items, complaints regarding the functions of our platform, user accounts and behavior scores, requests for fee waivers, and other disputes during the carpooling trip or regarding the functionality of our platform. We promptly followed up with these complaints pursuant to our complaint handling procedures, which generally include the following steps.
The complaint handling procedures on our app platform are as follows:
- i. Our outsourced professionals in our customer service team report the complaints to our complaint specialists after recording the details. Outsourced customer service representatives and our complaint specialists provide necessary and appropriate explanations and reassurances to users. If the user is satisfied with the explanation and response of a complaint specialist and agrees not to pursue the complaint further about the same issue, the user complaint handling process will be recorded in full as resolved;
ii. Our complaint specialists make phone calls to the respondents or contact our relevant department to ascertain the details. If the accepted complaint requires the assistance and verification from other departments of the Company, the case will be escalated to the relevant complaint department for further handling;
-
iii. We will contact the complainant and resolve the issue properly within 48 hours upon receiving a complaint. If an immediate response is not possible, we will proactively update the complainant on the progress. For complaints against other users, if the complaint is verified, the points in the behavior score of the respondents will be deducted and temporary or permanent bans may be imposed according to our rules. If the respondents offer evidence to refute the complaints, our complaint specialists will inform the customers who lodged the complaints and work with them to resolve their concerns;
-
iv. Upon completion, all details regarding the complaint handling process and results shall be recorded.
During the Reporting Year, we received approximately 4.6 million user inquiries and complaints in total. None of the complaints received, individually or in the aggregate, had materially and adversely affected our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Customer data protection and privacy
The Company respects the privacy of passengers and therefore has developed a travel safety protection mechanism. Our platform implements comprehensive privacy protection covering phone number masking, avatar obfuscation, gender and personalized ratings concealment. Passengers can also submit anonymous feedback about their travel experiences through our platform.
The Company attaches great importance to the confidentiality of customer information and is committed to protecting the personal information and privacy of users. Before using services on our platform, users are required to carefully read and acknowledge our privacy policy. We collect personal information and data from users only with their prior consent for verification purposes. These personal information and data collected mainly include user’s identification card, facial photograph, vehicle information, location, address book, phone number, device number, driver’s license and recording during trips. We generally maintain the personal information and data on our platform for the minimum time necessary for the purpose of their processing pursuant to the applicable laws and regulations, which ranges from days to years, and the users retain the ownership of such information and data. We treat all the information submitted by the private car owners and taxi drivers in our possession as confidential and limit access to such information within our Group to the extent necessary.
We take safety precautions in confidential information storage. Our information technology network is configured with multiple layers of protection to secure our databases and servers. To protect security throughout the various stages of our operations and data analytics, all user data tagged and processed are stored on our firewall-protected physical servers, and our testing data, including fictitious phone numbers and plate numbers automatically generated by our testing programs which do not contain any personal information, are stored on our cloud-based storage system operated by third-party cloud service providers. We back up user data on a daily basis in separate and various secured data back-up systems to minimize the risk of user data loss or leakage. We also conduct frequent reviews of our backup systems to ensure that they function properly and are well maintained. To ensure our ongoing compliance with the applicable regulations related to cybersecurity, information security, privacy and data security, and mitigate any potential risks related to regulatory developments, we have also taken specific measures. We have filed the 2025 annual car data security management status report to the competent authority pursuant to the Several Provisions on Car Data Security Management (for Trial) (汽車數據安全管理若干規定(試行)). We have also implemented the graded protection of cybersecurity pursuant to the Cybersecurity Law of the PRC (中華人民共和國網絡安全法), completed the assessment and obtained the record filing certificate regarding our mobility information system. We believe we maintain stable, reliable, secure and scalable technological infrastructure that is compatible with our growing business.

Our employees are also legally obligated to surrender all confidential information in possession while resigning, and to retain their confidential obligations thereafter. Our employees bear compensation liability if they breach their confidential obligations or otherwise commit misconduct resulting in leakage of our confidential information. During the Track Record Period and the Reporting Year, we entered into legally binding agreements with third-party service providers, with the major terms governing data protection typically including:
-

Anti-corruption
We have adopted a set of internal rules and policies governing the conduct of our employees. We have established a monitoring system to implement anti-bribery and anti-corruption measures to ensure that our employees comply with our internal rules and policies as well as the applicable laws and regulations. Our management is responsible for conducting a fraud and bribery risk assessment on an annual basis and our audit committee reviews and approves our annual risk assessment results and policies. We have also identified certain forbidden conduct in our internal anti-bribery and anti-corruption policies, including, among others, the prohibition of acceptance of bribes or rebates, embezzlement or misappropriation of our assets, and forgery or alteration of our accounting records.
Furthermore, we have established policies and measures for monitoring and preventing money laundering activities. For example, our management is responsible for supervising the implementation of the unified anti-money laundering policy throughout our Group, and our audit committee supervises the legal compliance of our Directors and senior management in fulfilling their anti-money laundering obligations. We have established an anti-money laundering working group specifically responsible for the recording, analysis and timely reporting of large transactions and suspicious transactions. We have been upgrading our customer information identification system and maintaining lists of customers of concern in order to timely identify customers, business relationships or transactions with money laundering risks. We keep customer information and transaction records for at least five years to facilitate anti-money laundering supervision and investigation.
The Company strictly abides by the laws and regulations of mainland China relating to preventing bribery, extortion, fraud and money laundering, including the Criminal Law of the PRC, the Anti-Money Laundering Law of the PRC and the Anti-Unfair Competition Law of the PRC. Employees are required to sign an Integrity Commitment Statement and perform their job duties and professional ethics with due diligence. Our suppliers are also required to sign an Integrity Commitment Statement when establishing business partnerships with us. We arrange annual anti-corruption trainings for our Directors and employees to ensure that they understand our related requirements and are capable to detect and handle suspicious transactions. We also remind our employees to maintain the highest standards of ethical conduct, promote excellence in corporate culture and adhere to the core values of “legal compliance, discipline, honesty and integrity”.
During the Reporting Year, there were no concluded corruption lawsuits against the Company or its employees. If the Company discovers any incident where an employee has suspected violation of laws and regulations relating to preventing bribery, extortion, fraud and money laundering, the Company reserves the right to pursue further legal action against relevant personnel, including but not limited to referring the case to judicial authorities. To avoid similar cases, the Company has carried out case demonstration and anti-corruption training for our employees, and updated the Employee Integrity Commitment Statement which has been re-signed by all employees. In the future, the Company will continue strengthening its anti-corruption management and deepening anti-corruption investigations. During the Reporting Year, we disseminated anti-corruption guidelines and reporting procedures to employees through the Company’s internal communication channels.
Whistleblowing procedure
Our Employee Handbook outlines a secure and confidential whistleblowing mechanism to manage all suspected internal misconduct and provide proper whistleblowing channels for our employees. This mechanism provides a procedure for our employees to report any potential violations, including but not limited to any perceived discrimination, bribery, extortion, fraud and corruption, any actual or threatened infringement on our property and reputation, and any other improper, unethical or inappropriate behavior. We have set up a reporting email address and established a whistleblowing mechanism to protect and reward whistleblowers who report violations of our anti-bribery and anti-corruption policies. Our whistleblowing mechanism ensures that whistleblowers acting in good faith will not face retaliation or harm, and all reports will proceed with confidentiality and sensitivity. Employees who violate corporate regulations, disregard corporate policies, or engage in misconduct will be subject to disciplinary actions, including but not limited to termination of employment.

COMMUNITY
Community Investment
The Company is committed in maintaining the sustainability of its business and its communities. In addition to actively developing our business, we have committed to and advocated public welfare activities to pursue higher social responsibility, hoping to give back to the society in the areas of community welfare and education.
Leveraging the collaborative nature of carpooling, we actively launch initiatives to advocate sharing idle seat with those in need to benefit the vast passengers in China. The company has been organizing the “Spring Festival Carpool Charity Ride” initiative since 2016, to help migrant workers, college students and other non-privileged people return to their hometowns and jobs as transportation tickets were hard to get during the holiday. In the past ten years, Dida carpooling Spring Festival charity campaign have helped over 10,000 fellow travelers return home smoothly during the Chinese New Year holidays. To support senior citizens nationwide with their transportation needs, we have developed an elderlyfriendly taxi-hailing feature on our mini-program with one-touch call functionality, backed by technical support for phonebased booking services, thus empowering elder adults to travel freely.
Looking ahead, we remain committed to investing more resources in community-focused public welfare initiatives to give back to the society.
The Company has compiled the Social Value Report of Carpooling Industry on the basis of big data, user research, traffic congestion mitigation studies of carpooling business of Dida Inc., as well as insights from experts. Based on the above analysis, we have identified that carpooling delivers multifaceted benefits, such as stimulating economic growth, reducing carbon emissions, enhancing public mobility welfare and fostering trust and goodwill among strangers.
As a practitioner in the carpooling industry, Dida Inc. has always regarded the social value as the foundation for sustainable development. By fostering an inclusive carpooling environment built on equality, respect and kindness, we inspire goodwill among strangers, making cities and society more compassionate. Over the past five years, our carpooling marketplace has made spreading kindness simpler and more engaging through the “Send a Little Red Flower” initiative: whenever drivers or passengers experience goodwill and wish to pass it forward, they can send a virtual red flower to each other on the platform. This spontaneous exchange of kindness among strangers has turned positive energy-sharing into a new social trend. During the Reporting Year, we joined hands with the Carpool User Committee to launch the “One Little Red Flower, Small Deeds Across the World – 2024 Carpool Positive Energy Stars” campaign. Based on the stories of millions of “Little Red Flowers” given by Dida carpooling users between 2023 and 2024, the selection process included preliminary screening by the platform and collection of user feedback, followed by public voting for the most touching stories. Twelve Dida carpooling users were selected as the 2024 Carpool Positive Energy Stars, each demonstrating spontaneous kindness among ordinary people in daily life and enhancing social harmony and trust. On the 62nd National Lei Feng Commemoration Day, we held the inaugural “Carpool Charity Cloud Salon” to explore new approaches to a culture of small acts of kindness. The event invited leaders of charitable organizations, key opinion leaders (KOLs) and members of the Carpool User Committee to discuss how to leverage the carpool platform to establish long-term mechanisms, promote the normalization of small voluntary acts among the public, and support the development of a culture of kindness.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF DIDA INC.
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)
OPINION
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Dida Inc. (the “ Company ”) and its subsidiaries (the “ Group ”) set out on pages 113 to 189, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2025, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “ IASB ”) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
BASIS FOR OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing (“ HKSAs ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “ HKICPA ”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the HKICPA’s Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the “ Code ”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
KEY AUDIT MATTERS
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The key audit matters we identified are:
1. Significant prepayments for advertising services
2. Revenue recognition on provision of mobility-related services

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
KEY AUDIT MATTERS (Continued)
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
1. Significant Prepayments for Advertising Services
Our audit procedures included:
- Making enquiries of management and general staff involved in negotiating and entering into the supplemental agreements of Prepayments, specifically regarding their roles, actions taken, and considerations made for contractual terms of supplemental agreements;
Refer to Note 24 to the consolidated financial statements
The Group made certain prepayments for purchasing advertising services (the “ Prepayments ”) during the year. As at 31 December 2025, the Prepayments amounted to approximately RMB78.1 million (2024: RMB97.5 million).
- Reviewing relevant correspondence, quotations and supplemental agreements between the Group and the advertising agent and its authorised reseller;
During the year ended 31 December 2025, changes in advertising locations and quotation arrangements were noted, primarily arising from adjustments to airport advertising locations, which resulted in amendments to existing contractual terms and the execution of supplemental agreements with advertising agents to reflect updated resource combinations and contractual terms. These changes increased the level of judgement required in assessing the ability of the advertising agents to operate in accordance with the contractual arrangements and to continuously deliver the contracted advertising resources throughout the contract periods.
-
Reviewing the Group’s internal control policy and measures to determine if there were any instances of non-compliance;
-
Assessing the background of the advertising agent and its authorised reseller;
-
Obtaining and reviewing monthly advertising placement records and obtaining advertising placement photos for inspection on a sample basis;
-
Selecting airports for physical inspection of advertisement placement on a sample basis;
The Prepayments enable the Group to secure desirable advertisement placement locations with significant discount for a period of 1 to 4 years. Additionally, a portion of these advertisement resources can also be resold by the Group. The arrangement of Prepayments with such features is not typically observed market practice.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
KEY AUDIT MATTERS (Continued)
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
- Conducting physical visits to the offices of the advertising agent and its authorised reseller and interviewing their executives to assess their professional background and ability to provide long-term services to the Group during the period covered by the Prepayments;
The carrying balance of Prepayments is subject to impairment test together with the cash-generatingunit (“ CGU ”) to which it belongs under IAS 36 whenever there is indication of impairment. One of the key indications of impairment is the possible inability of the advertising agents to continuously provide the advertising resources throughout the contract periods. After internal assessment, the management is of the opinion that there was no indication of impairment as at end of reporting period. Significant judgement of management is required when making this assessment.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
-
Arranging independent audit confirmations to the advertising agent and its authorised reseller for ascertainment of terms and outstanding balances as at end of reporting period;
-
Collecting other quotations for similar advertisement services and determining if the price paid by the Group falls within a reasonable range; and
The Prepayments represent a material balance to the Group that is subject to significant management judgment and estimation, particularly in assessing the impairment (if any) of these prepayments under IAS 36. The unique arrangement introduces complexity in assessing the ability of the advertising agents to deliver the contracted resources. Accordingly, it is identified as a key audit matter as it involves significant auditor judgment and represents a key area of focus in the audit of financial statements.
- Obtaining written representations from management of the Group to ascertain the commercial substance of the Prepayments.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
KEY AUDIT MATTERS (Continued)
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Our audit procedures included:
2. Revenue recognition on provision of mobilityrelated services
- Inspecting the key terms and conditions of contracts with customers, on a sample basis, and assessing revenue recognition criteria, including evaluating whether the Group acts as a principal or an agent in providing mobility-related services to customers, with reference to the requirements of the prevailing accounting standards;
Refer to Note 4 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements
The Group is principally engaged in the provision of mobility-related services, including carpooling marketplace services, smart taxi service and ridehailing aggregation platform services to riders by engaging its registered drivers via its own mobility service platform and connecting to third-party mobility service platforms.
- Obtaining an understanding of and assessing, the design and implementation and operating effectiveness of the Group’s key manual controls, as well as key IT controls with the assistance of our internal information technology specialists, over the revenue recognition of mobility-related services, including general IT controls, IT application controls over capturing and processing of revenue transaction data and data interface between different systems;
During the year ended 31 December 2025, revenue from mobility-related services amounted to approximately RMB487.7 million, which represented approximately 97.1% of total revenue of the Group.
The Group’s information technology systems process a large volume of ride-hailing transactions. The proper recognition of revenue from the Group’s mobility-related services is highly reliant on the information technology (IT) systems.
- Regarding the revenue derived from the orders placed on the Group’s own mobility service platform, comparing cash receipts to the transaction data recorded in the Group’s IT system, on a sample basis; and
We identified revenue recognition on the provision of mobility-related services as a key audit matter due to the magnitude of such revenue amounts recognised, and the volume of transactions being processed in relation to the mobility-related services, all of which give rise to an inherent risk that revenue could be incorrectly recorded in the period.
- Regarding the revenue derived from orders placed on third-party mobility service platforms, obtaining the monthly statements issued by the third-party mobility service platforms on a sample basis and comparing to the Group’s transaction records.

OTHER INFORMATION
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in the annual report other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The directors are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the IASB and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, action taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 December 2025
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Dida Inc. (the “ Company ”) was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability in the Cayman Islands on 11 July 2014 under the Companies Act of the Cayman Islands. The registered office is Maples Corporate Services Limited, PO Box 309, Ugland House, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands.
The Company is an investment holding company. The Company and its subsidiaries (the “ Group ”) are principally engaged in the provision of mobility-related services, including carpooling marketplace services, smart taxi services and ride-hailing aggregation platform services in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”). The principal activities of its subsidiaries are set out in note 22 to the consolidated financial statements.
The Company was successfully listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Hong Kong Stock Exchange ”) on 28 June 2024 (the “ Listing ”).
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi (the “ RMB ”), which is also the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries in the PRC.
In the opinion of the directors of the Company, 5brothers Limited is the ultimate controlling shareholder of the Company.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “ IASB ”). These consolidated financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622).
The IASB has issued certain new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards that are first effective or available for early adoption for the current accounting period of the Group. Note 3 provides information on any changes in accounting policies resulting from initial application of these developments to the extent that they are relevant to the Group for the current and prior accounting periods reflected in these consolidated financial statements.
Contractual Arrangements
Due to the restrictions imposed by the relevant laws and regulatory regime of the PRC on foreign ownership of companies engaged in the travel platform provision services, the Group conducts a substantial portion of the business through Beijing Changxing Information Technology Co., Ltd. (北京暢行信息技術有限公 司 or “ Changxing ”) in the PRC. On 4 December 2014, the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Pintu (Beijing) Information Technology Co., Ltd. (拼途(北京)信息技術有限公司 or “ Pintu ”), has entered into a series of contractual arrangements (the “ Contractual Arrangement ” as amended in September 2020), with Changxing and its respective equity holders, including exclusive business cooperation agreement, exclusive option agreement, exclusive asset acquisition agreement, equity pledge agreement, power of attorney and loan agreement. The Contractual Arrangements enable Pintu and the Company to:

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 December 2025
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)
Contractual Arrangements (Continued)
-
expose, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has ability to affect those returns through its power over Changxing;
-
exercise effective financial and operational control over of Changxing;
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
-
irrevocably exercise equity holders’ controlling voting rights of Changxing;
-
receive substantially all of the economic interest returns generated by Changxing in consideration for the business support, technical and consulting services provided by Pintu. Pintu has obligation to grant interest-free loans to the respective equity holders of Changxing with the sole purpose of providing funds necessary for the capital contribution to Changxing;
-
obtain an irrevocable and exclusive right to purchase all or part of equity interests in Changxing from the respective equity holders at a minimum purchase price permitted under PRC Laws. Pintu may exercise such options at any time until it has acquired all equity interests and/or all assets of the Changxing. In addition, Changxing are not allowed to sell, transfer, or dispose any assets, or make any distributions to their equity holders without prior consent of Pintu; and
-
obtain a pledge over the entire equity interests of Changxing from their equity holders as collateral security for all of Changxing’s payments due to Pintu and to secure performance of Changxing’s obligations under the Contractual Arrangements.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
The Group does not have any equity interest in Changxing. However, as a result of the Contractual Arrangements, the Group has power over Changxing, has rights to variable returns from its involvement with Changxing and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over Changxing and is therefore considered to have control over Changxing. Consequently, the Company regards Changxing as an indirect subsidiary for accounting purpose. The Company consolidated the financial position and the results of operation of Changxing during the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024.
Total assets of Changxing were RMB709,745,000 and RMB928,055,000 as of 31 December 2025 and 2024 respectively, and these balances have been reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements with intercompany balances and transactions between Changxing and other entities within the Group eliminated.
Total revenue of Changxing was RMB502,441,000 and RMB787,218,000 for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024, respectively, and these amounts have been reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements with intercompany balances and transactions between Changxing and other entities within the Group eliminated.

3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the IASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period. There was no material impact to the consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of these standards.
(b) Revised IFRS Accounting Standards in issue but not yet effective
Up to the date of issue of these consolidated financial statements, the IASB has issued a number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretation, which are not effective for the year ended 31 December 2025 and which have not been adopted in these financial statements.

3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (Continued)
- (b) Revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (Continued)
The directors of the Company are in the process of making an assessment of what the impacts of these new standards, amendments to standards and interpretation are expected to be in the period of initial application. So far it has concluded that the adoption of them is unlikely to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements”
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 “Presentation of financial statements”, introducing new requirements that will help to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities and provide more relevant information and transparency to users. Even though IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the consolidated financial statements, IFRS 18 introduces significant changes to the presentation of financial statements, with a focus on information about financial performance present in the statement of profit or loss, which will affect how the Group present and disclose financial performance in the financial statements.
The new accounting standard introduces the following key new requirements:
- Entities are required to classify all income and expenses into five categories in the statement of profit or loss, namely the operating, investing, financing, discontinued operations and income tax categories. Entities are also required to present a newly-defined operating profit subtotal. Entities’ net profit will not change.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
-
Management-defined performance measures (MPMs) are disclosed in a single note in the financial statements.
-
Enhanced guidance is provided on how to group information in the financial statements.
In addition, all entities are required to use the operating profit subtotal as the starting point for the statement of cash flows when presenting operating cash flows under the indirect method.
The Group is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18, with respect to the structure of the Group’s statement of profit or loss, the statements of cash flows and the additional disclosures required for MPMs. The Group is also assessing the impact on how information is grouped in the financial statements. The Group expects to apply the new standard from its mandatory effective date of 1 January 2027. Retrospective application is required, and so the comparative information for the financial year ending 31 December 2026 will be restated in accordance with IFRS 18.

3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (Continued)
- (b) Revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (Continued)
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments – Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7
The IASB issued targeted amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 to respond to recent questions arising in practice, and to include new requirements not only for financial institutions but also for corporate entities. These amendments:
-
clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
-
clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;
-
add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some financial instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance targets); and
-
update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
The application of the amendments is not expected to have significant impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.
Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture”
The amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures deal with situations where there is a sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Specifically, the amendments state that gains or losses resulting from the loss of control of a subsidiary that does not contain a business in a transaction with an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using the equity method, are recognised in the parent’s profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interest in that associate or joint venture. Similarly, gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of investments retained in any former subsidiary (that has become an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using the equity method) to fair value are recognised in the former parent’s profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interests in the new associate or joint venture.
The application of the amendments is not expected to have significant impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 December 2025
4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, unless mentioned otherwise in the accounting policies below (e.g. certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value).
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in note 5.
The material accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporates the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Company:
-
has power over the investee;
-
is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
-
has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains controls until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each item of other comprehensive income are attributed to the equity shareholders of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the equity shareholders of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group’s accounting policies.
All intra-group assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (Continued)
Investment in a subsidiary
Investment in a subsidiary is included in the Company’s statements of financial position at cost less accumulated losses, if any.
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue from providing mobility-related services
The provision of mobility-related services include carpooling marketplace services, smart taxi services and ridehailing aggregation platform services.
Revenue from providing carpooling marketplace services
The Group generates its revenue from its carpooling marketplace that connects drivers and riders. Revenue represents service fees from private car owners (the “ Private Car Owners ”) for use of the Group’s online platform and related activities to find the riders (the “ Carpooling Riders ”) to facilitate and successfully complete rides via the Dida Mobility App (collectively referred as the “ carpooling marketplace services ”). Private Car Owners accept the terms and conditions with the Group to receive the carpooling marketplace services through the use of the Dida Mobility App. The terms and conditions defines the fees the Group charges the Private Car Owners for each transaction, each party’s rights and obligations regarding the carpooling marketplace services and payment terms. As the Company’s customary business practice, a contract exists between the Private Car Owners and the Group when both Private Car Owners and the Carpooling Riders confirm the trip and the Group collects prepayment for the trip fare from the Carpooling Riders on behalf of the Private Car Owners. The duration of a contract is typically equal to the duration of a single ride. The Group does not earn any fees from the Carpooling Riders to access the App nor has any obligation to the Carpooling Riders to provide the ride.
The Group provides a service to the Private Car Owners to complete a successful transportation service for riders. The Group’s performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of the carpooling rides rather than providing the carpooling rides itself, therefore the Group considers itself as an agent and recognises revenue on a net basis which represent the fee charged by the Group to the Private Car Owners. The service assists the Private Car Owners to find, receive and fulfill on-demand requests from Carpooling Riders seeking transportation services and complete related collection activities, using the Dida Mobility App. These activities are not distinct from each other and are not separate performance obligations. As a result, the Group’s single performance obligation in the transaction is to connect Private Car Owners with Carpooling Riders to facilitate the completion of a successful transportation service for riders.
The Group earns fees from the Private Car Owners as a fixed amount predetermined based on the expected trip distance plus a minimum fee per transaction. As there is only one performance obligation in the transaction, there is no allocation of the transaction price. The Group recognises revenue at a point in time upon completion of a trip, at which time the performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue from providing smart taxi services
The Group also provides taxi online-hailing services to taxi drivers (the “ Taxi Drivers ”) to find passengers who are looking for a taxi ride (the “ Taxi Riders ”) and the Group considers the Taxi Drivers as customers of the taxi online-hailing services. Taxi Drivers accept the terms and conditions with the Group to receive the taxi onlinehailing services through the use of the Dida Mobility App. The terms and conditions define the fees the Group charges the Taxi Drivers for each transaction, each party’s rights and obligations regarding the taxi online-hailing services and payment terms. As the Group’s customary business practice, a contract exists between the Taxi Drivers and the Group when the Taxi Drivers confirm taxi online-hailing request from Taxi Riders. The duration of a contract with a customer is typically equal to the duration of a single ride.
The Group provides service to the Taxi Drivers to assist them to complete transportation service to the Taxi Riders. The Group’s performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of the taxi services rather than providing the taxi service itself, therefore the Group considers itself as an agent and recognises revenue on a net basis which represent the fee charged by the Group to the Taxi Drivers. The service includes on-demand lead generation that assists the Taxi Drivers to find, receive and fulfill on-demand requests from riders seeking transportation services and related collection activities, using the Dida Mobility App. These activities are not distinct from each other and are not separate performance obligations. As a result, the Group’s single performance obligation in the transaction is to connect drivers with riders to facilitate the completion of a successful transportation service for riders.

As there is only one performance obligation in the transaction, there is no allocation of the transaction price. The Group recognises revenue at a point in time upon completion of a taxi trip, at which time the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue from providing ride-hailing aggregation platform services
The Group also provides ride-hailing aggregation platform services that connect riders with third party mobility service providers (the “ Aggregation Partners ”), and the Group considers the Aggregation Partners as customers of these services. Revenue represents service fees from Aggregation Partners for use of the Group’s online platform and related activities to find riders and facilitate and successfully complete rides via the Dida Mobility App and connected platforms (collectively referred to as the “ ride-hailing aggregation platform services ”). Aggregation Partners accept the terms and conditions with the Group to receive the ride-hailing aggregation platform services through the use of the Dida Mobility App or related interfaces, which define the fees the Group charges the Aggregation Partners for each transaction, each party’s rights and obligations and the payment terms. The Group’s performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of transportation services by the Aggregation Partners rather than providing such services itself, therefore the Group considers itself as an agent and recognises revenue on a net basis which represents the fee charged by the Group to the Aggregation Partners.
Advertising and related services
The Group also offers display-based marketing services in the form of banners, and textual or graphical marketer’s link and performance-based marketing services. For display-based marketing services, the marketers pay the Group based on the period their advertisements are displayed on the Group’s mobile applications and revenue is recognised on a pro-rata basis over the contractual service period. For performance-based marketing services, revenue is recognised when relevant specified performance measures are fulfilled. As the advertising services are provided through the advertising spaces generated by the Group’s own mobile application, therefore the Group considers itself as a principal when providing advertising services and recognises revenue on a gross basis.

Revenue from contracts with customers (Continued)
Driver Subsidy and User Incentive Programs
The Group offers subsidies to attract Private Car Owners and Taxi Drivers and the Group offers incentives to attract riders for the carpooling marketplace services and the taxi online-hailing services to use the Dida Mobility App. Private Car Owners and Taxi Drivers generally receive cash subsidies while riders generally receive discounted rides incentives under such programs.
Subsidies to Private Car Owners and Taxi Drivers
The Group offers various subsidies programs to Private Car Owners and Taxi Drivers, such as volume/ performance-based subsidies payments. Volume-based subsidies payments represent subsidies granted upon completion of certain number of trips by the drivers, and performance-based subsidies payments represent subsidies granted upon completion of trips which met certain criteria, such as completing trips during the traffic peak or referral of new drivers or riders.
Volume-based subsidies are similar to retrospective volume-based rebates and represent variable consideration that is typically settled within a week. Performance-based subsidies are granted upon completion of a trip which met certain criteria. Given Private Car Owners and Taxi Drivers are customers of the Group, the subsidies paid to them are consideration payable to customers under IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and therefore such subsidies are recorded as a reduction to revenue since the Group does not receive a distinct good or service in exchange for the payment or cannot reasonably estimate the fair value of the good or service received.
For those performance-based subsidies granted for referral of new drivers or riders, these subsidies are considered as payments in exchange of distinct services and are accounted for as user acquisition costs are recorded as selling and marketing expenses.
When the amount of these subsidies granted to Private Car Owners or Taxi Drivers exceeds the revenue earned by the Group on an order by order basis, the excess incentive over revenue are recorded in cost of services.
When no service fee is charged by the Group, incentives granted to Taxi Drivers are recorded in selling and marketing expenses.
Rider Incentives
The Group has several rider incentive programs in the form of cash coupon or discount voucher, which are offered to encourage riders to use the Dida Mobility App. An example is a promotion where the Group offers a number of discounted rides (capped at a given number of rides) which are valid only during a limited period of time to a targeted group of riders. During the promotion period, riders not utilising an incentive would be charged the full fare. Riders are not customers of the Group under IFRS 15 which defines customer as a party that has contracted with an entity to obtain goods or services that are an output of the entity’s ordinary activities in exchange for consideration. Therefore such incentive granted to riders are not consideration payable to customers and are not within the scope of IFRS 15. These incentives are included in selling and marketing expenses. These incentives reduce the amount collected from riders (on behalf of the Private Car Owners or Taxi Drivers), but not reduce the amount payable to the Private Car Owners or Taxi Drivers, as a result the Group bears the cost of such incentives. The Group recognises the cost of incentives granted to riders as selling and marketing expenses when the rider redeems cash coupon or discount voucher.

Research and development expenses
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. When no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.
Foreign currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Nonmonetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Employee benefits
In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, the PRC based employees of the Group participate in various defined contribution retirement benefit plans organised by the relevant municipal and provincial governments in the PRC under which the Group and the PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to these plans calculated as a percentage of the employees’ salaries.
The municipal and provincial governments undertake to assume the retirement benefit obligations of all existing and future retired PRC based employees’ payable under the plans described above. Other than the monthly contributions, the Group has no further obligation for the payment of retirement and other post-retirement benefits of its employees. The assets of these plans are held separately from those of the Group in independently administrated funds managed by the PRC government.
The Group’s contributions to the defined contribution retirement schemes are expensed as incurred.
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are recognised at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid as and when employees rendered the services. All short-term employee benefits are recognised as an expense unless another IFRS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefit in the cost of an asset.
A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees (such as wages, salaries and annual leave) after deducting and amount already paid.

Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions
Shares/Share options granted to employees
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.
The fair value of the equity-settled share-based payments determined at the grant date without taking into consideration all non-market vesting conditions is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity (share-based payment reserves). At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest based on assessment of all relevant non-market vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the share-based payment reserves.
When share options are exercised, the amount previously recognised in share-based payment reserves will be transferred to share premium. When the share options are forfeited after the vesting date or are still not exercised at the expiry date, the amount previously recognised in share-based payments reserve will continue to be held in share-based payment reserves.
When shares granted are vested, the amount previously recognised in share-based payment reserves will be transferred to share premium.
Modification to the terms and conditions of the share-based payment arrangements
When the terms and conditions of an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement are modified, the Group recognises, as a minimum, the services received measured at the grant date fair value of the equity instruments granted, unless those equity instruments do not vest because of failure to satisfy a vesting condition (other than a market condition) that was specified at grant date. In addition, if the Group modifies the vesting conditions (other than a market condition) in a manner that is beneficial to the employees, for example, by reducing the vesting period, the Group takes the modified vesting conditions into consideration over the remaining vesting period.
The incremental fair value granted, if any, is the difference between the fair value of the modified equity instruments and that of the original equity instruments, both estimated as at the date of modification.
If the modification occurs during the vesting period, the incremental fair value granted is included in the measurement of the amount recognised for services received over the period from modification date until the date when the modified equity instruments are vested, in addition to the amount based on the grant date fair value of the original equity instruments, which is recognised over the remainder of the original vesting period.
If the modification reduces the total fair value of the share-based arrangement, or is not otherwise beneficial to the employee, the Group continues to account for the original equity instruments granted as if that modification had not occurred.

Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of current and deferred income tax expense.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit/loss before tax because of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of each reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The Group considers the following criteria in assessing the probability that taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised: (a) whether the Group has sufficient taxable temporary differences relating to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, which will result in taxable amounts against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised before they expire; (b) whether it is probable that the Group will have taxable profits before the unused tax losses or unused tax credits expire; (c) whether the unused tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur; and (d) whether tax planning opportunities are available to the Group that will create taxable profit in the period in which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit and at the time of the transaction does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Taxation (Continued)
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied to the same taxable entity by the same taxation authority.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.
In assessing any uncertainty over income tax treatments, the Group considers whether it is probable that the relevant tax authority will accept the uncertain tax treatment used or proposed to be used by individual group entities in their income tax filings. If it is probable, the current and deferred taxes are determined consistently with the tax treatment in the income tax filings. If it is not probable that the relevant taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the effect of each uncertainty is reflected by using either the most likely amount or the expected value.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents presented on the consolidated statement of financial position include:
-
(a) cash, which comprises of cash on hand and demand deposits, excluding bank balances that are subject to regulatory restrictions that result in such balances no longer meeting the definition of cash; and
-
(b) cash equivalents, which comprises of short-term (generally with original maturity of three months or less), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes.
For the purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management. Such overdrafts are presented as short-term borrowings in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value except for trade receivables arising from contracts with customers which are initially measured in accordance with IFRS 15. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss “ FVTPL ”) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability and of allocating interest income and interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts and payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Financial assets
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Classification and measurement of financial assets
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost:
-
the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Investments in wealth management products issued by banks and an investment fund issued by a financial institution are classified as financial assets at FVTPL as the principal amount and expected returns of these wealth management products and the investment fund are not guaranteed, and the contractual terms does not give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Amortised cost and interest income
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method for financial assets measured subsequently at amortised cost. Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset, except for financial assets that have subsequently become credit-impaired (see below).
Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any fair value gains or losses recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss includes any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the “other gains and losses” line item.
Impairment of financial assets subject to impairment assessment under IFRS 9
The Group performs impairment assessment under expected credit loss (“ ECL ”) model on financial assets (including trade receivables, other receivables, amounts due from a subsidiary, loan to a related company, bank balances, time deposits, restricted cash and debt investments that are measured at FVTPL), which are subject to impairment assessment under IFRS 9. The amount of ECL is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition.
Lifetime ECL represents the ECL that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of the relevant instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL (“ 12m ECL ”) represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. Assessment are done based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current conditions at the reporting date as well as the forecast of future conditions.
The Group always recognises lifetime ECL for trade receivables. The ECL on these assets are assessed individually for debtors with significant balances and collectively for the remaining balances of debtors using a provision matrix with appropriate groupings.
For all other instruments, the Group measures the loss allowance equal to 12m ECL, unless when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, in which case the Group recognises lifetime ECL. The assessment of whether lifetime ECL should be recognised is based on significant increases in the likelihood or risk of a default occurring since initial recognition.

Significant increase in credit risk
In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition. In making this assessment, the Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort.
In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly:
-
an actual or expected significant deterioration in the financial instrument’s external (if available) or internal credit rating;
-
significant deterioration in external market indicators of credit risk, e.g. a significant increase in the credit spread, the credit default swap prices for the debtor;
-
existing or forecast adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations;
-
an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor; or
-
an actual or expected significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the debtor that results in a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations.
Irrespective of the outcome of the above assessment, the Group presumes that the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, unless the Group has reasonable and supportable information that demonstrates otherwise.
The Group regularly monitors the effectiveness of the criteria used to identify whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk and revises them as appropriate to ensure that the criteria are capable of identifying significant increase in credit risk before the amount becomes past due.
Definition of default
For internal credit risk management, the Group considers an event of default occurs when information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Group, in full (without taking into account any collaterals held by the Group).
Irrespective of the above, the Group considers that default has occurred when a financial asset is more than 90 days past due unless the Group has reasonable and supportable information to demonstrate that a more lagging default criterion is more appropriate.

Credit-impaired financial assets
A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of that financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events:
-
significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
-
a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event;
-
the lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession(s) that the lender(s) would not otherwise consider; or
-
it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.
Write-off policy
The Group writes off a financial asset when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, for example, when the counterparty has been placed under liquidation or has entered into bankruptcy proceedings, whichever occurs sooner. Financial assets written off may still be subject to enforcement activities under the Group’s recovery procedures, taking into account legal advice where appropriate. A write-off constitutes a derecognition event. Any subsequent recoveries are recognised in profit or loss.
Measurement and recognition of ECL
The measurement of ECL is a function of the probability of default, loss given default (i.e. the magnitude of the loss if there is a default) and the exposure at default. The assessment of the probability of default and loss given default is based on historical data and forward-looking information. Estimation of ECL reflects an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. The Group uses a practical expedient in estimating ECL on trade receivables using a provision matrix taking into consideration historical credit loss experience and forward looking information that is available without undue cost or effort.
Generally, the ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at the effective interest rate determined at initial recognition.
Where ECL is measured on a collective basis or cater for cases where evidence at the individual instrument level may not yet be available, the financial instruments are grouped on the following basis:
-
Nature of financial instruments;
-
Past-due status;
-
Nature, size and industry of debtors; and
-
External credit ratings where available.

Measurement and recognition of ECL (Continued)
The grouping is regularly reviewed by management to ensure the constituents of each group continue to share similar credit risk characteristics.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Interest income is calculated based on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset unless the financial asset is credit-impaired, in which case interest income is calculated based on amortised cost of the financial asset.
The Group recognises an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments by adjusting their carrying amount, with the exception of trade receivables, other receivables and loan to a related company, where the corresponding adjustment is recognised through a loss allowance account.
Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity.
On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity instruments in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the group entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a group entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at FVTPL.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Financial liabilities including trade and other payables and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
==> picture [109 x 106] intentionally omitted <==
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless, at the end of the reporting period, the Group has a right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

Preferred Shares
Preferred Shares issued by the Company are redeemable at the option of the holders; the Preferred Shares can be converted into variable number of the Group’s ordinary shares; the Preferred Shares also has preference on liquidation, voting rights and rights to participate in dividends (as detailed in note 30).
At the date of issuance, the fair value of the Preferred Shares (including any embedded non-equity derivatives features) is estimated by measuring the fair value of similar liability that does not have an associated equity component.
The Group designated the Preferred Shares (including any embedded non-equity derivatives features) as financial liability at FVTPL. They are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Preferred Shares are carried at fair value with changes in fair value not attributable to changes of credit risk recognised in “changes in fair value of Preferred Shares” in the consolidated statements of profit or loss, and changes in fair value attributable to changes of credit risk were recognised in other comprehensive income.
The Preferred Shares are classified as non-current liabilities if the Preferred Shares holder cannot demand the Company to redeem the Preferred Shares for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date, otherwise the Preferred Shares are classified as current liabilities.
Any directly attributable transaction costs were recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange gains and losses
The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognised in profit or loss for financial liabilities that are not part of a designated hedging relationship.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

5. CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES
In applying the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the directors are required to make judgements (other than those involving estimations) that have a significant impact on the amounts recognised and to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Critical judgements in applying accounting policies
In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements (apart from those involving estimations, which are dealt with below).
(a) Significant increase in credit risk
As explained in accounting policy disclosed in note 4, ECL are measured as an allowance equal to 12-month ECL for stage 1 assets, or lifetime ECL for stage 2 or stage 3 assets. An asset moves to stage 2 when its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. IFRS 9 does not define what constitutes a significant increase in credit risk. In assessing whether the credit risk of an asset has significantly increased, the Group takes into account qualitative and quantitative reasonable and supportable forward-looking information.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
(b) Indications of impairment for the prepayments for purchasing advertising services
As at 31 December 2025, the Group has recognised certain prepayments for purchasing advertising services amounting to approximately RMB78,094,000 (2024: RMB97,491,000). In accordance with IAS 36, management is required to assess these prepayments for impairment, which involves significant judgment and estimation.
In evaluating whether there are indications of impairment for the advertising prepayments, management considered both external and internal sources of information as outlined in IAS 36. From external sources, management examined observable indicators of whether there were any significant adverse changes in market conditions or economic factors that could impact the ability of the advertising companies to deliver the contracted advertising services. From internal sources, management reviewed whether any indications existed that significant changes with an adverse effect on the Group had taken place or were expected to take place in the near future in the extent to which the advertising prepayments are expected to be used. As at 31 December 2025, after thorough evaluation of these factors, management concluded that there were no indications of impairment.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 December 2025
5. CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES (Continued)
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.
(a) Fair value measurement of financial instruments
Upon the Listing of the Company on 28 June 2024, the fair value of the Preferred Shares was determined with reference to the Company’s Offer Price of HK$6.00 per share (approximately RMB5.48). The directors consider that the change in valuation method was appropriate based on the fact that, on the conversion date, the equity value could be assessed using the Offer Price of HK$6.00, which represented a fairly determined market price.
(b) Repricing of share options
As of 31 December 2024, the Company implemented a repricing of all outstanding share options granted between 2014 and 2024 to existing employees, reducing the exercise prices from US$0.044 and US$0.15 to US$0.0001 per share. According to IFRS 2, when a modification increases the fair value of the granted instruments, this incremental fair value must be included in the measurement of the expense recognised for the services received. Management must determine this incremental fair value as the difference between the fair value of the modified options and that of the original options. The fair values are calculated using the Binomial model, which relies on critical management estimates, including expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, and expected option life.
During the year ended 31 December 2025, the Company recognised an incremental fair value of RMB2,798,000 (2024: RMB9,084,000) arising from the repricing of the share options as share-based payment expense. As at 31 December 2025, the remaining unamortised incremental fair value amounted to RMB1,596,000 (2024: RMB7,531,000), which will be expensed over the remaining vesting period of two years (2024: three years).
(c)
Deferred tax assets
As at 31 December 2025 and 2024, deferred tax assets of RMB72,167,000 and RMB70,537,000, respectively, have been recognised in the Group’s consolidated statements of financial position. The realisability of the deferred tax assets depends on whether sufficient future taxable profits or taxable temporary differences will be available in the future. In assessing the probability that taxable profit will be available, the Group has considered criteria, such as whether there was a history of operating losses, and whether tax planning opportunities are available to the Group. In cases where the actual future taxable profits generated are less or more than expected, or change in facts and circumstances which result in revision of future taxable profits estimation, a material reversal or further recognition of deferred tax assets may arise, which would be recognised in profit or loss for the period in which such a reversal or further recognition takes place.

5. CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES (Continued)
Key sources of estimation uncertainty (Continued)
(d) Impairment of trade receivables, other receivables and loan to a related company
The Group applies the simplified approach for ECL prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. The Group establishes, through charges against the consolidated statement of profit or loss, impairment allowance in respect of estimated loss on trade receivables. The measurement of impairment losses under IFRS 9 requires management’s estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining impairment losses and the assessment of a significant increase in credit risk.
In determining impairment allowances, management applied the ECL model with a number of estimations and assumptions including:
-
The selection of inputs which the entity used in the ECL model including loss give default and possibility of default, and
-
The selection of forward-looking information.
The management regularly reviews the estimation and assumption used in the ECL calculation to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience. The impairment allowance is sensitive to changes in estimates.
As at 31 December 2025, the carrying amount of trade receivables is RMB5,145,000 (net of impairment allowance of RMB1,310,000) (2024: RMB5,815,000 (net of impairment allowance of RMB2,446,000)).
(e) Impairment of other receivables and loan to a related company
While in estimating ECL on other receivables and loan to a related company, the Group assess credit quality on each debtor and the related company based on its background information, financial position, past settlement experience and other relevant factors to determine the stage of credit quality, probability of default and the loss given default with forward-looking information which are reasonable and supportable without undue cost or effort. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are reassessed and changes in the forward-looking information are considered.
The provision of ECL on debtors and the related company is sensitive to changes in estimates as the outcome would be vary depending on the selection of input applied. Financial uncertainty has been triggered by interest rate hike and geopolitical situation. The Group has assessed the expected loss rate with reference to the probability of default and loss given default reflected by the market conditions as at 31 December 2025. The information about the ECL of the Group’s other receivables and loan to a related company are disclosed in note 6(c), note 24 and note 39(a).

As at 31 December 2025, the carrying amount of other receivables is RMB18,255,000 (net of impairment allowance of RMB85,000) (2024: RMB24,045,000 (net of impairment allowance of RMB73,000)).
As at 31 December 2025, the carrying amount of loan to a related company is nil (2024: RMB35,718,000 (net of impairment allowance of RMB18,525,000)).

6. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.
(a) Foreign currency risk
The Group has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as most of its business transactions, assets and liabilities are principally denominated in the functional currencies of the Group entities. The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency transactions, assets and liabilities. The Group monitors its foreign currency exposure closely and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.
(b)
Price risk
The Group is exposed to equity price risk in respect of investment in a listed entity and other price risk through its investments in wealth management products and an investment fund, both of which are measured at FVTPL. The management considers the other price risk of the Group on its investments in the wealth management products and investment in investment fund are limited as the maturity periods of these investments are short. Therefore, no sensitivity analysis is presented.
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to equity price risk of investment in a listed entity at the end of the reporting period.
If equity price of listed entity had been 10% higher/lower, profit after tax for the year ended 31 December 2025 would increase/decrease by RMB12,190,000. This is mainly due to the changes in fair value of heldfor-trading investments.
(c) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that the Group’s counterparties default on their contractual obligations resulting in financial losses to the Group. The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables, bank balances, time deposits, restricted cash, other receivables, loan to a related company and debt investments that are measured at FVTPL. Except the loan to a related company, the Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements to cover its credit risks associated with its financial assets.
For trade receivables, the Group has applied the simplified approach in IFRS 9 to measure the loss allowance at lifetime ECL. The Group determines the ECL on these items by using a provision matrix – debtors aging, based on shared credit risk characteristics by reference to repayment histories for recurring customers and current past due exposure for the new customers. The provision rates applied is estimated using the historical observed default rates of the debtors taking into consideration forward-looking information that is reasonably and supportably available without undue costs or effort. At the end of each of the reporting period, these historical loss rates are reassessed and updated if required after considering the forward-looking information then available to the directors of the Company. In this regard, the directors of the Company consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

6. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)
(c) Credit risk (Continued)
The Group is exposed to concentration of credit risk as at 2025 and 2024 on trade receivables from the Group’s largest trade debtors for each year of 2025 and 2024 accounted for approximately 58.9% and 26.1%, respectively, and five largest trade debtors for each year of 2025 and 2024 accounted for approximately 94.9% and 79.9%, respectively, of the Group’s total trade receivables.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
For other receivables, the directors of the Company make periodic individual assessment on the recoverability of other receivables based on historical settlement records, past experience, and also quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportive forward-looking information. The directors of the Company believe that there is no significant increase in credit risk of these amounts since initial recognition and the Group provided impairment based on 12m ECL. For the year ended 31 December 2025, impairment allowance of RMB12,000 was provided (2024: RMB65,000).
For loan to a related company, the loan is guaranteed by another related company (the “ Guarantor ”) as disclosed in note 39(a). The Group recognised the provision for expected credit losses by assessing the credit risk characteristics of debtor and Guarantor, discount rate and the likelihood of recovery and considering the prevailing economic conditions. The directors of the Company make periodic individual assessment on the recoverability of loan to a related company based on historical experience, quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportive forward-looking information. The directors of the Company believe that there is no significant increase in credit risk of these amounts since initial recognition and the Group provided impairment based on 12m ECL. During the year ended 31 December 2025, the loan was fully settled. Accordingly, for the year ended 31 December 2025, impairment allowance of RMB18,525,000 was reversed (2024: RMB18,525,000 was provided).
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
The credit risks on bank balances, time deposits, restricted cash and debt investments that are measured at FVTPL are limited because the counterparties are banks and a financial institution with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
Provision matrix – debtors’ aging
As part of the Group’s credit risk management, the Group uses debtors’ aging to assess the impairment for its customers in relation to its operation because these customers with common risk characteristics are representative of the customers’ abilities to pay all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms. The following table provides information about the exposure to credit risk for trade receivables which are assessed based on provision matrix within lifetime ECL (not credit-impaired). Debtors with significant outstanding balances or credit-impaired with gross carrying amounts of RMB2,659,000 and RMB4,839,000 as at 31 December 2025 and 2024, respectively, were assessed individually.

The estimated loss rates are estimated based on historical observed default rates over the expected life of the debtors and are adjusted for forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort. The grouping is regularly reviewed by management to ensure relevant information about specific debtors is updated.
During the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024, the Group provided RMB170 and RMB151 impairment allowance for trade receivables, based on the above provision matrix. Impairment allowance of RMB1,116,000 and RMB98,000 were made on debtors with significant balances for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024 respectively. Meanwhile, 100% ECL were provided for credit-impaired trade receivables and impairment allowance of RMB194,000 and RMB2,348,000 were provided at 31 December 2025 and 2024, respectively. The assessment is regularly reviewed by management to ensure relevant information about specific debtors is updated.

(e) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to fixed-rate loan to a related company (note 39(a)), time deposits (note 26), borrowings (note 28) and lease liabilities (note 29). The Group is also exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank balances and restricted cash (note 26). The Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of interest rates on bank balances. The Group manages its interest rate exposures by assessing the potential impact arising from any interest rate movements based on interest rate level and outlook.
The directors of the Company considers that the impact to profit or loss for respective years are insignificant for a reasonable change in the market interest rate. Accordingly, no sensitivity analysis is prepared.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following disclosures of fair value measurements use a fair value hierarchy that categorises into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:
Level 1 inputs: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The Group’s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of any of the three levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

The financial controller reports directly to the Board of Directors for these fair value measurements. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the financial controller and the Board of Directors at least twice a year.
For level 3 fair value measurements, the Group will normally engage external valuation experts with the recognised professional qualifications and recent experience to perform the valuations.

12. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The chief operating decision maker (“ CODM ”) has been identified as the directors of the Company. The directors review the Group’s internal reporting for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance which focused on the category of services provided to external customers. For the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group has reported three operating and reportable segments, namely: (i) provision of carpooling marketplace services; (ii) provision of smart taxi services; and (iii) provision of advertising and other services.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
During the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group refined its internal organisation and enhanced the integration of its mobility-related services. As part of this refinement, the CODM began reviewing the operating results of the carpooling marketplace services, smart taxi services and ride-hailing aggregation platform services collectively as a single operating segment, given their increasing operational interdependence and the Group’s strategic focus on consolidated mobility solutions. Accordingly, these activities have been combined into one operating segment named “provision of mobility-related services”. The advertising and other services segment continues to be reviewed separately as a distinct operating segment, named “provision of advertising and other services”. Accordingly, the comparative segment information has been re-presented to conform to current year’s presentation. The Board believes that the above changes in segment information better reflect the resource allocation and future business development of the Group.
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in note 4 of the consolidated financial statements.
Segment profits or losses do not include other income, other gains or losses, reversal of impairment losses/ (impairment losses) under expected credit loss model, selling and marketing expenses (except drivers and riders incentives), administrative expenses, research and development expenses, change in fair value of the Preferred Shares, share-based payment expenses, finance costs and listing expense.
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
The CODM makes decisions according to operating results of each segment. No analysis of segment asset and segment liability is presented as the CODM does not regularly review such information for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment. Therefore, only segment revenue and segment results are presented.
The headquarter of the Company is in the PRC and during the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024, all of the Group’s revenue was generated from PRC and all of its non-current assets were located in the PRC. Accordingly, no geographical segment information is presented.

The key terms of the Preferred Shares are summarised as follows: (Continued)
(d) Dividends rights
If a dividend or other distribution is declared, paid or set aside, each holders of the Series E, Series D, Series C, Series B, and Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% of Series E, Series D, Series C, Series B, and Series A issue price per annum, respectively. Dividends shall be distributed in the follow sequence, first to Series E Preferred Shares, secondly to the Series D Preferred Shares, thirdly to the Series C Preferred Shares, fourthly to the Series B Preferred Shares, and fifthly to the Series A Preferred Shares. After payment of the dividends as set forth above, any additional dividends or distributions shall be distributed among all holders of ordinary shares and Preferred Shares in proportion to the number of ordinary shares that would be held by each such holder if all Preferred Shares had been converted to ordinary shares as of the record date fixed for determining those entitled to receive such distribution.
No dividend or distribution, whether in cash, in property, or in any other equity securities of the Company, shall be declared, paid, set aside or made with respect to the ordinary shares at any time unless all accrued but unpaid dividends on the Preferred Shares have been paid in full.
(e) Voting rights
Each Preferred Share shall carry a number of votes equal to the number of ordinary shares of the Company then issuable upon its conversion into ordinary shares of the Company at the record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote on such matters. To the extent that requires the Preferred Shares to vote separately as a class with respect to any matters, the Preferred Shares shall vote separately as a class with respect to such matters. Otherwise, the holders of Preferred Shares and ordinary shares shall vote together as a single class.
The Preferred Share is designated as measured at FVTPL. Upon the Listing of the Company, the fair value of the Preferred Shares was determined with reference to the Company’s Offer Price of HK$6.00 per share (approximately RMB5.48). The directors consider that the change in valuation method was appropriate based on the fact that, on the conversion date, the equity value could be assessed using the Offer Price of HK$6.00, which represented a fairly determined market price.
As at 31 December 2023, the Group has used the discounted cash flow method to determine the underlying equity value of the Company and adopted equity allocation model to determine the fair value of the Preferred Shares. The fair value was determined by the directors of the Company with reference to valuation reports carried out by an independent qualified professional valuer, Asia-Pacific Consulting and Appraisal Limited address at Room 2201, Digital 01 Building, No. 12, Guanghua Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing. Changes in fair value of Preferred Shares not attributable to changes in the Company’s credit risk were recorded in “change in fair value of financial instruments” in profit or loss, and changes in fair value of Preferred Shares attributable to changes in the Company’s credit risk were recorded in OCI.

In addition to the underlying equity value of the Company determined by discounted cash flow method, other key valuation assumptions used in Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the Preferred Shares as at 1 January 2024 are as follows:
| Risk-free interest rate | 5.40% |
|---|---|
| Volatility | 36.92% |
| Scenario probability – conversion | 80.00% |
| Scenario probability – liquidation | 10.00% |
| Scenario probability – redemption | 10.00% |
==> picture [37 x 211] intentionally omitted <==
Note: the risk-free interest rate used in determining equity value allocation between different class of shares.
As at 1 January 2024, the Group estimate the risk-free interest rate based on the yield of US Government Bond with maturity life close to the redemption/liquidation date as of valuation date. Volatility was estimated based on annualised standard deviation of daily stock price return of comparable companies for a period from the respective valuation date and with similar span as time to expiration. Probability weight under each of the conversion feature, redemption feature and liquidation preferences was based on the Group’s best estimates. In addition to the assumption adopted above, the Company’s projections of future performance were also factored into the determination of the fair value of Preferred Shares on each valuation date.
