CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
Dear Shareholders,
I am pleased to report to the shareholders the annual results of Impro Precision Industries Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ” or “ Impro ”) for the year ended 31 December 2025.
During the year ended 31 December 2025, the revenue of the Group amounted to HK$5,095.5 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 8.7%. Profit attributable to shareholders of the Company (“ Shareholders ”) amounted to HK$726.2 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 12.7%. Adjusted profit attributable to Shareholders amounted to HK$689.9 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 12.1%. Basic earnings per share amounted to 38.5 HK cents (for the year ended 31 December 2024: 34.1 HK cents). Taking into account the sound cash flow position and business prospects of the Group, the Board resolved to declare a second interim dividend of 8.0 HK cents per share for 2025 in lieu of a final dividend. Together with the first interim dividend of 8.0 HK cents per share for 2025 already distributed, dividend per share for the year amounted to 16.0 HK cents (for the year ended 31 December 2024: 16.0 HK cents).
In 2025, the artificial intelligence boom, intense volatility and unpredictability of US tariff policy and ongoing geopolitical conflicts continued to intertwine, profoundly affecting the global market landscape and trends. By virtue of its solid business foundation and its enduringly effective strategies of “Global Footprint”, “Region for Region Manufacturing” and “Dual Source Production”, the Group successfully mitigated market risks and achieved growth in its results. During the year, the development momentum of artificial intelligence remained strong, driving continued growth in demand for related data centers. As a key component of distributed power generators, the demand for high horsepower engines rose significantly, leading to a substantial year-on-year increase of 43.3% in the Group’s sales in the high horsepower engine end-market. Meanwhile, the growth in demand for liquid cooling systems related to artificial intelligence data centers was also very strong, driving a substantial year-on-year increase of 38.4% in revenue from the diversified industrials others end-market. In addition, as new products commenced mass production, revenue from the medical end-market recorded a significant year-on-year increase of 55.2%.
In addition, as the Group’s Mexico SLP Campus is still in the ramp-up stage, with high employee turnover leading to rising scrap rates, it continued to record a relatively large net loss during the year. Fortunately, most of our plants in China continued stellar financial performance and significant profit growth. This, coupled with the decrease in the Group’s financing costs, successfully drove a 12.1% increase in the Group’s adjusted profit attributable to Shareholders for 2025. The Group’s robust financial performance in 2025, coupled with its forward-looking global footprint and diversified end-markets advantages, successfully attracted capital from Hong Kong, overseas and Chinese Mainland to purchase the Company’s shares during the year. In 2025, the Company’s share price increased significantly by approximately 1.5 times compared to the end of 2024.

CORPORATE AWARDS
In 2025, the Group’s products and services continued to receive high recognition from customers and were repeatedly honored with important awards, including the “Excellent Supplier Award for Lean Manufacturing” from Honeywell Aerospace, “Excellence in Delivery Performance Award” from GE Aerospace APAC, the 2025 “Excellence in Delivery Performance Award” from Pratt & Whitney China, and the 2025 “Strategic Supplier Award”, “Excellence Performance Award” and “Long Service Award” from Bosch Rexroth. On the capital market front, by virtue of its robust business performance, clear strategic layout and continuous value enhancement, the Group once again received multi-party recognition from the market during the year. These included the “New Quality Productive Forces Enterprise Award 2025”, the “Listed Company Excellence Award” from the Hong Kong Economic Journal, a major Hong Kong financial media outlet, for the fifth consecutive year, and the “Listed Company Annual Award” from the Hong Kong Stock Analysts Association for the fourth consecutive year. In February 2026, the Company was included by MSCI as a constituent of the MSCI Hong Kong Small Cap Index. Furthermore, EcoVadis, a corporate social responsibility rating service provider, awarded the Group a Silver Medal for the first time in February 2026 after awarding it Bronze Medal for three consecutive years. These accolades reflect the continued confidence in Impro’s business resilience, growth potential and corporate governance.
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK
Looking ahead to 2026, the strategic competition in Sino-US relations, the continuous evolution of the geopolitical situation, the uncertain trend of fiscal policies in major global economies, and unpredictable nature of tariff policies will continue to bring challenges to the global economy and add complexity to corporate operations. However, the current trading environment highlights the advantages of the Group’s three long-standing strategies of “Global Footprint”, “Diversified Endmarkets” and “Twin Growth Engine”, which enable us to meet the needs of customers for manufacturers with multiple sources of supply to mitigate supply chain risks. In view of the expected continued strong growth of artificial intelligence data centers related products, coupled with a large number of new orders at the Mexico SLP Campus and the recovery of demand in certain end-markets, the Group’s sales revenue growth rate is expected to accelerate over the next two to three years. Based on the Group’s outstanding orders on hand and the progress of future new project development, the Company forecasts that the year-on-year sales growth rate in 2026 will be approximately mid-double digits.
Among these, the diversified industrials sector is expected to continue to demonstrate robust growth momentum. The Group will actively seize the growth opportunities brought by industries related to artificial intelligence data centers and effectively translate them into sustained business results. In the high horsepower engine sector, as products are upgraded from castings and rough machining to a higher proportion of deep processing and partial full-finishing, combined with the successive mass production for new projects involving both existing and new customers, and with the largescale sand casting workshop in Phase II of the Mexico SLP Campus commencing mass production in the middle of this year to provide more capacity, it is expected that high horsepower enginerelated components will embark on a new growth curve starting from 2026. Meanwhile, leveraging its unique technological advantages and customer relationship in the field of data center liquid cooling systems, the Group’s related business is ushering in rapid growth. With the expansion of production capacity of the investment casting plant at the Mexico SLP Campus, it is expected to continuously increase its market share in 2026 and beyond.
– 5 –
The aerospace, energy and medical sector (“ aerospace sector ”) will become one of the Group’s primary growth engines in the future. The Group will precisely capture the strategic opportunities arising from the current supply chain capacity constraints in this sector. In the aerospace endmarket, the Mexican plants obtained the initial phase of AS9100 quality system certification in January 2026. As aerospace products involve various specialized processes, it is expected that the relevant certifications will be completed successively in the second half of 2026, and mass production will gradually commence. In the medical end-market, the Group will continue to develop surgical robots related products, which are expected to demonstrate certain growth potential in the coming years. In the energy end-market, due to the global power shortage, demand for industrial gas turbines as primary power generation equipment remains robust. Capturing this trend may lead to a further increase in related capital expenditure.
According to industry forecasts, the global investment casting market is set to grow from approximately US$17.5 billion in 2025 to more than US$23.8 billion in 2031, of which approximately US$4 billion will be coming from the aerospace, energy and medical sector. To capture this market opportunity and gain a share of the market growth, the Group is continuously evaluating a potential spin-off and separate listing of the aerospace, energy and medical sector, as well as various other feasible financing options to support the expansion of future production capacity and process categories and make forward-looking preparations for the long-term sustainable development of the aerospace sector.
The automotive sector will exhibit structural divergence, with demand for passenger cars projected to continue to decline, while the commercial vehicle market is expected to resume growth. In response to this trend, the Group will continue to optimize its product structure, focus on increasing sales of commercial vehicles, and effectively control capital expenditure related to passenger cars, while attentive to any business opportunities that may arise during the downturn period of the passenger car market. In the commercial vehicle end-market, the Group will continue to consolidate and increase its market share in traditional internal combustion engines, while flexibly seizing strategic opportunities to enter the electric commercial vehicle market. It is expected that from the third quarter of 2026, related products will enter a steady ramp-up phase, thereby driving relatively strong sales growth in the electric commercial vehicle market.
Currently, although the Sino-US trade war has temporarily eased, providing some breathing space for the market, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (“ USMCA ”) will face renewal negotiations in 2026, which will pose challenges to the future business development of the Group and its customers with the capricious and unpredictable nature of the US tariff policy, and the unknown impact of the US-Iran War on global geopolitics and the global economy. Although overall operations still face numerous uncertainties, the strategic value and commercial potential of the Mexico SLP Campus within the Group’s “Global Footprint” will gradually become apparent, with its long-term development potential and contribution worth expecting. In terms of internal management, as more employee dormitories in Mexico are successively put into use, it is expected that the issue of employee turnover will be effectively alleviated. Moreover, to seize the opportunities from the rapid growth of the global investment casting market and to meet strong customer demand, the Group will moderately increase the capital expenditure of the aerospace plant in the Mexico SLP Campus. Subject to prudent assessment, the Group will continue to seek opportunities for expansion of production capacity and process categories to share in the dividends of market growth. The Group expects capital expenditure for 2026 to be approximately HK$850 million, of which more than three-quarters will be allocated to the Mexico SLP Campus, with the remainder to be primarily invested in our plants in China.
– 6 –
The plants in China are expected to continue leveraging their advantages in operational efficiency and cost control to deliver sustained and steady performance to the Group. With the successful relocation of Foshan Ameriforge (Plant 12) to Nantong and the gradual stabilization of its operations, the plant has demonstrated a steady growth trend in its performance. In addition, plant 8 for surface treatment in Nantong is expected to achieve a turnaround to profitability in 2026. However, high staff turnover and high scrap rate at the Mexico plants are expected to continue for a certain period of time. The hyperinflation in Turkey and the ongoing appreciation of Renminbi will pose significant challenges to the Group. This is further compounded by the unpredictability of US tariff policy and the expiration of the truce period of the Sino-US trade war in November 2026, uncertainties surrounding the renewal of the USMCA as scheduled, as well as the ongoing Middle East US-Iran War, coupled with the intensifying trend of global geopolitical conflicts, all of which will bring considerable pressure and uncertainties to the Group’s results. The relevant management of the Group will pay close attention to and make every effort to cope with these challenges and strive to achieve stable growth in results of the Group.
To actively explore and lay out the medium-to-long-term growth momentum, the Group has formally established the “Future Business Unit”, which focuses on identifying and evaluating emerging market opportunities that align with the Group’s strategic direction, with the aim of cultivating potential growth projects for the Group. The Group is not only committed to consolidating the stable growth of existing businesses, but will also continue to explore new opportunities in future industrial trends through systematic and forward-looking positioning. The Future Business Unit will serve as a key engine for exploration and innovation, assisting the Group’s existing “Aerotek Business Unit”, “Fluidtek Business Unit” and “Mechatek Business Unit” in enhancing market share and global industry status amidst dynamic competition and laying the foundation for the next stage of advancement.
Looking ahead, the Group will focus on the three core strategies of “Global Footprint”, “Diversified End-markets” and “Twin Growth Engine”, while simultaneously promoting the expansion of the diversified industrials, aerospace, energy and medical and automotive end-markets, and precisely seizing the strategic opportunities brought by the artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, the Group will continue to optimize its global production capacity allocation, give full play to the advantages of its global footprint, and actively promote end-market diversification and regional production synergy. In addition, the Group will continue to seek merger and acquisition opportunities with synergistic effects, strengthen its research and development and technical capabilities, drive continuous improvement of the Group’s results by providing diversified, high-quality products and services, and strive to create stable and growing returns for Shareholders.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all our customers, Shareholders, employees, suppliers and other stakeholders for their continuous support.

Revenue for the year ended 31 December 2025 increased by 8.7% to HK$5,095.5 million as compared to last year of HK$4,686.8 million. In local currencies, the Group’s revenue increased by 7.5% year-on-year. Such growth rate was lower than the reported revenue growth rate mainly due to the appreciation of average foreign exchange rates of Euro against HKD by 4.7% compared with the previous year.
Gross profit and gross profit margin
The Group’s gross profit increased by HK$131.0 million, or 10.3% to HK$1,400.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 as compared to HK$1,269.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2024. The gross profit of investment casting business increased by HK$20.5 million, or 3.3% to HK$645.5 million, mainly due to revenue increase from medical and diversified industrials endmarkets which was partially offset by revenue decline from automotive end-market. The gross profit of precision machining and others business decreased by HK$51.4 million to HK$275.4 million mainly due to the decline in gross profit of Mexican and Turkish precision machining plants. The gross profit of sand casting business increased by HK$148.9 million, or 47.2% to HK$464.4 million mainly as a result of the robust demand of high horsepower engine end-market, which was more than enough to offset the gross loss reported in Mexico sand casting plant. Surface treatment business reported a gross profit of HK$14.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, compared to a gross profit of HK$1.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2024. This improvement is attributed to the rehabilitation of the Nantong plant since January 2024.
The Group’s gross profit margin was 27.5% for the year ended 31 December 2025, compared with 27.1% in last year. The increase in gross profit margin was mainly attributed to the robust demand from high horsepower engine end-market, partially offset by the lower-than-expected revenue growth from the Mexican plants and the decline in profit in precision machining and others business.
Other revenue
During the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group’s other revenue decreased by HK$1.7 million to HK$31.5 million (2024: HK$33.2 million). Other revenue mainly represented various discretionary incentives from the local governments in the PRC in relation to technology development and other incentive programs.
Other net income
The Group recorded other net income of HK$12.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: HK$125.5 million). Other net income amount was significant in 2024 because the Group received insurance compensation from the Nantong fire incident net of legal expense of HK$72.3 million, and reported a net foreign exchange gain of HK$45.8 million mainly due to devaluation of RMB against HKD.

The increase in selling and distribution expenses was mainly due to a significant increase in tariff expenses by HK$17.6 million or 68.8% to HK$43.2 million.

The decrease in administrative and other operating expenses was mainly attributable to the decrease in amortization and depreciation expense of HK$8.4 million as the acquisition of Turkish subsidiary related intangibles and fixed assets have been fully amortized and depreciated in 2024. Administrative and other operating expenses to revenue ratio was 7.1% for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: 7.7%).
Net finance costs
The Group’s net finance costs decreased by HK$23.5 million to HK$78.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2025. The decrease was mainly attributable to the lower interest rate of HKD borrowings during the year ended 31 December 2025.
Income tax
The Group’s income tax expenses decreased to HK$87.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 from HK$140.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Adjusted effective tax rate was 18.4% for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: 18.1%).

Disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers by business lines is as follows:
| Investment casting Precision machining and others Sand casting Surface treatment |
Year ended 31 December 2025 2024 HK$’000 HK$’000 1,909,999 1,804,779 1,619,758 1,720,250 1,487,452 1,101,270 78,281 60,496 5,095,490 4,686,795 |

|---|---|---|
| 4,686,795 |
The Group’s revenue from contracts with customers were recognized at point in time. Disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers by geographic markets is disclosed in Note 3(b)(iii).
The Group’s customer base is diversified and includes two (2024: three) customers with whom transactions have exceeded 10% of the Group’s revenues.
- (ii) Revenue expected to be recognized in the future arising from contracts with customers in existence at the reporting date
The Group has applied the practical expedient in paragraph 121(a) of IFRS 15 to its sales contracts for goods such that information about revenue expected to be recognized in the future is not disclosed in respect of revenue that the Group will be entitled to when it satisfies the remaining performance obligations under the contracts for sales of goods that had an expected duration of one year or less.
(b) Segment reporting
The Group manages its businesses by divisions, which are organized by business lines (products and services) and geography. In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purposes of resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has presented the following four reportable segments. No operating segments have been aggregated to form the following reportable segments.
-
Investment casting: It is a metal forming process that casts molten metal into a ceramic mold produced by surrounding a wax pattern. The main products are automotive, diversified industrials, aerospace and medical components.
-
Precision machining and others: It uses a computerized power-driven machine tool to drill or shape metal parts with high precision specifications. The main products are automotive, construction equipment and aerospace components, and hydraulic orbital motors.
-
Sand casting: It is a metal forming process in which a mold is first formed from a three-dimensional pattern of sand and molten metal is poured into the mold cavity for solidification. The main products are high horsepower engine and construction equipment components.
-
Surface treatment: It primarily contains surface treatment services including plating, anodizing, painting and coating and is mainly used in automotive and aerospace end-markets.

(i) Segment results and assets
For the purpose of assessing segment performance and allocating resources between segments, the Group’s senior executive management monitors the results and assets attributable to each reportable segment on the following bases:
Segment assets include all tangible, intangible assets and current assets with the exception of other financial asset, deferred tax assets, cash and cash equivalents and other corporate assets.
Revenue and expenses are allocated to the reportable segments with reference to sales generated by those segments and the expenses or which otherwise arise from the depreciation or amortization of assets attributable to those segments. However, other than reporting intersegment sales, assistance provided by one segment to another, including sharing of technical know-how, is not measured.
The measure used for reporting segment profit is adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. To arrive at the reporting segment profit, the Group’s earnings are further adjusted for items not specifically attributed to individual segments, such as head office or corporate administration costs. In addition, the management evaluates the performance of the Group based on the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
In addition to receiving segment information concerning reporting segment profit, management is provided with segment information concerning revenue (including Intersegment sales) generated by the segments in their operations. Intersegment sales are priced with reference to prices charged to external parties for similar orders.
Information regarding the Group’s reportable segments as provided to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purposes of resources allocation and assessment of segment performance for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024 is set out below:

8 EARNINGS PER SHARE
(a) Basic earnings per share
The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Company of HK$726,181,000 (2024: HK$644,304,000) and the weighted average of 1,887,285,665 ordinary shares (2024: 1,887,285,665 ordinary shares) in issue during the year.
(b) Diluted earnings per share
The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Company of HK$726,181,000 (2024: HK$644,304,000) and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 1,887,285,665 shares (2024: 1,887,285,665 ordinary shares).
During the year ended 31 December 2024, the dilutive potential ordinary shares were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted earnings per share was the same as basic earnings per share of the year ended 31 December 2024.
During the year ended 31 December 2025, diluted earnings per share was the same as the basic earnings per share as there were no dilutive potential ordinary shares issued.

Impairment tests for cash-generating unit containing goodwill
For the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill arising from the business combination was allocated to the appropriate cash-generation units (“ CGU ”) of the Group identified according to the individual hydraulic orbital motor business acquired by the Group in 2022.
Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s CGU as follows:
| At 31 December | At 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| HK$’000 | HK$’000 | |
| Hydraulic orbital motor business | 228,279 | 222,654 |
The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculation. The Group engaged an independent professional valuer to assist with the calculation. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. The key assumptions used in estimating the recoverable amount are as follows:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Annual revenue growth rate during the forecast period | 13.8% | 17.4% |
| Operating profit margin | 13.0% | 11.5% |
| Growth rate beyond the forecast period | 2.0% | 2.0% |
| Pre-tax discount rate | 13.8% | 14.0% |
Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using an estimated weighted average growth rate which is consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports.
The estimated recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount as at 31 December 2025 by approximately HK$48,851,000 (2024: HK$17,392,000).
– 33 –
Management performed sensitivity analysis of three key assumptions that could significantly affect the recoverable amount. The following table shows the percentage by which these three assumptions would need to change individually for the estimated recoverable amount to be equal to the carrying amount:
Change required for recoverable amount to equal carrying amount (in percentage point)
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Hydraulic orbital motor business | ||
| Increase in discount rate | +1.4% | +0.7% |
| Decrease in annual revenue growth rate during the forecast period | -2.4% | -0.9% |
| Decrease in operating profit margin | -2.0% | -0.7% |

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK
The Company believes that good corporate governance can enhance its overall effectiveness, and thus create additional value for its shareholders. The Company is committed to maintaining high standards and has applied the principles in the Corporate Governance Code (“ CG Code ”) as set out in Appendix C1 of the Rules Governing to the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Listing Rules ”). The Company’s corporate governance practices are based on these principles. The Board believes that good corporate governance standards are essential in contributing to the provision of a framework for the Company to safeguard the interests of its shareholders, enhance corporate value, formulate its business strategies and policies, and enhance transparency and accountability.
The Company has adopted the principles and code provisions of the CG Code as the basis of the Company’s corporate governance practices with effect from the listing date.
In the opinion of the Directors, the Company has complied with all the code provisions of the CG Code and to a large extent the recommended best practices in the CG Code during the year ended 31 December 2025, except for the deviation from code provision C.2.1 of the CG Code as described below.
Under code provision C.2.1 of the CG Code, the roles of chairman and chief executive should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. Mr. LU Ruibo (“ Mr. LU ”) is our Group’s chairman and chief executive officer. Since the founding of our Group in 1998, Mr. LU has been responsible for formulating our overall business development strategies and leading our overall operations, and therefore has been instrumental to our growth and business expansion. Mr. LU’s vision and leadership have played a pivotal role in our Group’s success and achievements to date, and therefore our Board considers that vesting the roles of chairman and chief executive officer in the same person is beneficial to the management of our Group. Our long-serving and outstanding senior management team and our Board, which comprise experienced and high-caliber individuals, provide a check on balance of power and authority. Our Board comprises four executive Directors (including Mr. LU) and three independent non-executive Directors and therefore has a fairly strong independence element in its composition.
MODEL CODE FOR SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
The Company has adopted The Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers (the “ Model Code ”) set forth in Appendix C3 of the Listing Rules as the code of conduct for securities transactions by the Directors. The Company has made specific enquiry with the Directors and all Directors have confirmed that they complied with the Model Code during the year ended 31 December 2025.
