The Company was incorporated in Bermuda as an exempted company under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda (as amended) with limited liability.

The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars ("HK$"), as the Directors consider that it is a more appropriate presentation for a company listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") and for the convenience of the shareholders.

The Company is an investment holding company. The principal activities of its subsidiaries are the manufacturing, design and development and sale of intelligent terminal original design manufacturer ("ODM") business, automotive intelligent products business and property management in the People's Republic of China ("PRC").

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). In addition, the consolidated financial statements include applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain properties and financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting periods.

Except for the new and amendments to IFRS Accounting Standards mentioned below, the directors of the Company anticipate that the application of all new and amendments to IFRS Accounting Standards will have no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the foreseeable future.

IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements"

IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements" ("IFRS 18"), which sets out requirements on presentation and disclosures in financial statements, will replace IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" ("IAS 1"). This new IFRS Accounting Standard, while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1, introduces new requirements to present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss; provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures in the notes to the financial statements and improve aggregation and disaggregation of information to be disclosed in the financial statements. In addition, some IAS 1 paragraphs have been moved to IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors" and IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures". Minor amendments to IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" and IAS 33 "Earnings per Share" are also made.

IFRS 18, and amendments to other standards, will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early application permitted. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions. The application of the new standard is not expected to have significant impact on the financial performance and positions of the Group in terms of recognition and measurement. However, it is expected to affect the structure and presentation of the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS REVIEW

In 2025, in the face of a complex and changing external environment, the Group remained committed to tightening cost control and optimizing organizational structure while at the same time raised the operational awareness among all employees and refined its appraisal and incentive mechanisms. Against this backdrop, despite revenue and gross profit for the Year recorded a decline over the past year, continued improvement in operational quality has resulted in the ODM business for intelligent terminals achieving a turnaround from loss to profit. Although the substantial impairment of investment properties far exceeded the profits generated by all business segments making an overall loss unavoidable, the overall loss was considered minimal.

For the Year, the Group recorded a turnover of HK$398.7 million, representing a decrease of 7.1% as compared to HK$429.4 million for last year. Gross profit amounted to HK$81.0 million, representing a decrease of 12.8% as compared to HK$92.9 million for last year. Overall, the Group recorded a loss of HK$13.3 million for the Year (compared to a loss of HK$94.8 million for the same period last year).

The main reason for the loss in the Year is the impairment of investment properties. Based on the market prediction of future rents and the leases signed by the Group, the value conducted impairment assessments of the investment properties held by the Group totalling HK$73.9 million during the Reporting Period. Excluding the impact of such non-operating factor, the Group achieved a profit of HK$60.6 million for the Year (for the same period last year, a loss of HK$38.8 million was recorded on a comparable basis). The significant year-on-year improvement in operating results was primarily attributable to the Group's stringent control over costs and expenses, continuous optimization of operational efficiency, and the gradual recovery of profitability in its Core Business.

ODM business for intelligent terminals

This business segment recorded a turnover of HK$343.1 million for the Year, representing an increase of 1.5% as compared to HK$338.0 million for last year. Gross profit amounted to HK$46.3 million, representing an increase of 42.9% as compared to HK$32.4 million for last year, and gross profit margin rose to 13.5% from 9.6% last year. This segment achieved a turnaround from loss to profit for the Year, recording a profit of HK$5.0 million (compared to a segment loss of HK$61.5 million last year).

According to the management, the improvement in performance was primarily attributable to the following factors: First, the systematic enhancement of operational awareness among all employees, implementation of optimized appraisal and incentive mechanisms and the fact that cost-control measures continued to deliver results have led to a further reduction in labour cost compared with last year. Second, increased factory utilization has contributed to the realisation of economies of scale. Third, the proactive divestment of negative-profit and low-efficiency projects along with ongoing optimization of the product mix. However, this segment is still facing the following risks and challenges: a high degree of customer concentration such that revenue from Core Business is heavily reliant on a small number of key clients, and there is pressure in expanding new collaborations with existing clients. Furthermore, rising market prices for critical materials (such as storage chips) has posed potential impacts on operational stability, putting our supply chain material preparation and risk management capabilities to test.

Automotive intelligent products business

In view of the bruising price war within the automotive market, at the beginning of 2025, upon the delivery of some 1,000 vehicles by the Group's subsidiary, Shanghai Zhenkang Electronics Limited ("Zhenkang"), in respect of orders placed in the previous year, the client immediately notified Zhenkang of the cancellation of the original order plan worth hundred millions of RMB. This has resulted in a turnover of only HK$17.1 million recorded by the business segment for the Year, representing a decrease of 63.1% as compared to HK$46.3 million for last year. Gross profit amounted to HK$4.0 million, representing a decrease of 79.1% as compared to HK$19.1 million for last year. A segment loss of HK$17.3 million was recorded for the Year (compared to a segment loss of HK$30.8 million last year). Upon prudent evaluation, the management concluded that, given the price competition within the automotive industry and among upstream suppliers has reached a critical stage and competition has tended to be irrational, the Group has decided to suspend its automotive pre-installed operations, i.e. the OEM business for automotive manufacturers. This business will no longer be presented and disclosed as a separate segment in subsequent reporting.

Property management

The revenue from this business segment for the Year was mainly derived from the business of leasing of Block A and Block B of SIM Technology Building in Shanghai, and factory units and commercial properties in Shenyang, with total gross floor area (GFA) of approximately 78,000 square meters. This business segment recorded a turnover of HK$38.5 million for the Year, representing a decrease of 14.4% as compared to HK$45.0 million for last year. Gross profit margin was 79.9%, representing a decrease as compared to 92.1% for last year. A segment loss of HK$55.5 million was recorded for the Year (compared to a segment loss of HK$24.4 million last year).

For the Year, based on the forecasts of the future rental market and the existing lease contracts, the valuer made an impairment loss totalling HK$73.9 million on the Group's investment properties (a total impairment amount of HK$56.0 million was recognised for the same period last year), which has resulted in a significant loss incurred by the business segment. According to the management, due to the impact of the overall downturn in the nationwide property leasing market, the Group's property vacancy rate, particularly in Shenyang, has risen significantly compared to last year. To enhance the efficiency of resource utilization, the Company will continue to streamline and lease out idle buildings and factory to steadily advance the development of its property management business.

PROSPECTS

In 2026, the Group’s development will still face multiple challenges. Considering that numerous uncertainties persist in the current macro environment as well as the intensifying overseas and domestic market competition, the management opined that the industry is in a stage of excessive competition, and it is currently not an opportune time for expansion. “Maintaining profitability while staying stable” is the most appropriate strategy to adopt at the moment instead.

As the core pillar of the Group, the ODM business for intelligent terminals will continue to drive our strategic transformation. The Group will focus on enhancing the operational quality and optimizing its business structure to solidify its core competitiveness, leveraging application of AI technologies, further diversifying its customer base, refining supply chain management and upgrading product intelligence to provide fundamental support for the robust development of the Group.

Building upon the foundation of solidifying Core Business to strengthen development, the Group will also gradually shift its development priorities to emerging segments with high potential, among which the robotics industry has been identified as a new strategic focus of the Group which shares strong synergy with our current ODM business and supply chain advantages, indicating a natural shifting of the Group’s operation into this field.

The Group has formally entered the robotics business and will uphold the principle of “proactive exploration with prudent investment” to strictly control its allocation of resources and proceed with its development steadily. The business will focus on two core areas: first, the OEM mass production of humanoid robots, providing ODM services encompassing design and manufacturing outsourcing during the mass production phase for robotics manufacturers; second, building a supply chain platform for critical robot components with its decades of supply chain management expertise to offer one-stop supply chain services to robotics manufacturers. Given the fragmented nature of the segmented market within this industry and the abundance of small and medium-sized robot manufacturers, the Group will focus on the ODM business and core parts of supply chain services. The management believes that this sector will offer ample opportunities for the Group in the foreseeable future.

The management firmly believes that by the simultaneous implementation of prudent business strategies and AI technology empowerment, the Group can not only control business risks but also grasp the window period of benefits from technology, thereby striving to seize the opportunities in emerging sectors and planning ahead of time for high-speed development in the future.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

For the Year, the revenue of the Group was HK$398.7 million (2024: HK$429.4 million), in which the revenue from the ODM (original design manufacturer) business for intelligent terminals and automotive intelligent products business (together, “Core Business”) decreased by 6.3% as compared with that in 2024 to HK$360.2 million (2024: HK$384.3 million). The revenue from property management (“Non-core Business”) decreased by 14.4% as compared with that in 2024 to HK$38.5 million in 2025 (2024: HK$45.0 million).


The gross profit for Core Business of the Group for the Year was HK$50.3 million (2024: HK$51.5 million). The gross profit margin for Core Business was 14.0% (2024: 13.4%) and the gross profit margin for Non-core Business decreased to 79.9% (2024: 92.1%). The overall gross profit margin of the Group for the Year was 20.3% (2024: 21.7%).

The Group recorded a loss attributable to owners of the Company of HK$13.3 million (2024: loss attributable to owners of the Company of HK$94.8 million) for the Year. The basic loss per share for the Year was HK$0.62 cent (2024: loss per share of HK$4.42 cents). In 2025, in the face of a complex and changing external environment, the Group remained committed to tightening cost control and optimizing organizational structure while at the same time raised the operational awareness among all employees and refined its appraisal and incentive mechanisms. Against this backdrop, despite revenue and gross profit for the Year recorded a decline over the past year, continued improvement in operational quality has contributed to a significant narrowing of overall losses. The ODM business for intelligent terminals achieved a turnaround from loss to profit.

LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Liquidity

As at 31 December 2025, the Group had bank balances and cash of HK$430.5 million (31 December 2024: HK$360.3 million), among which 55.6% was held in Renminbi, 5.5% was held in Japanese Yen, 38.8% was held in US dollars and the remaining balance was held in Hong Kong dollars, and short-term bank deposits of HK$509.7 million (31 December 2024: HK$580.8 million), among which 65.1% was held in US dollars and the remaining balance was held in Renminbi. As at 31 December 2025, the Group's bank deposits of HK$11.1 million were pledged to secure its borrowings denominated in Renminbi (31 December 2024: HK$ Nil). The Group intends to finance its working capital and capital expenditure plans from such bank balances. The total bank borrowings of the Group amounted to HK$11.1 million as at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: HK$29.2 million), all of which was denominated in Renminbi. All of the bank borrowings were at fixed interest rates and repayable within one year.

Operating Efficiency

The respective turnover period of inventory, trade and notes receivables, trade payables of the Group for the Core Business is presented below:

2025 2024
Days Days
Inventory turnover period 65 75
Trade and notes receivables turnover period 105 82
Trade payables turnover period 138 105

In 2025, the Group adopted the "just-in-time" supply model and shifted to a demand-oriented "pull" production and distribution model so as to reduce the inventory level as much as possible. At the same time, the Group has enhanced the sales management by achieving more accurate forecast and response to customer demand, thereby reducing the overstock or shortage caused by forecast deviations. As a result, the inventory turnover period for the Year decreased as compared to that of year 2024.

In 2025, due to intensified market competition, in order to maintain its market share, the Group had to relax the credit policy for certain selected customers and appropriately extend the credit period. As a result, the trade and notes receivables turnover period for the Year significantly increased as compared to that in 2024.

The Group's sales and procurement volumes saw a slight increase, leading to a corresponding rise in the balance of trade payables. By optimizing supplier payment terms and appropriately extending payment cycles, the Group extended the duration of trade payables. Therefore, the trade payables turnover period for the Year significantly increased as compared to that in 2024. As at 31 December 2025, the current ratio, calculated as current assets over current liabilities, was 3.2 times (31 December 2024: 3.1 times).

The Group reckons that inventory turnover period, trade and notes receivables turnover period, and trade payables turnover period help the Group to understand its ability to convert inventory into cash and its sales and cash conversion cycle. Through reviewing the turnover periods, the Group can improve its operational efficiency. The current ratio can help the Group to understand its ability to pay short-term and long-term obligations.

Treasury Policies

The Group adopts a prudent approach in its treasury policy. The Group's surplus funds are mainly held under fixed and savings deposits in reputable banks to earn interest income.

Certain sales and purchases of inventories of the Group are denominated in US dollars. Furthermore, certain trade receivables, trade payables and bank balances are denominated in US dollars, thereby exposing the Group to the currency risk of US dollars. As at 31 December 2025, the Group did not use any financial instrument for hedging purpose but it will consider entering into non-deliverable foreign exchange forward contracts to eliminate the foreign exchange exposure in US dollars when necessary.

As at 31 December 2025, SHZK has recorded a trade payable of HK$4.5 million in respect of amounts related to the underlying transaction. The arbitration proceeding is still in its initial stage. The Group has assessed the claim and obtained PRC legal advice, and considers it too early to assess the possible liability at this stage.

CHARGE ON GROUP ASSETS

As at 31 December 2025, bank deposits of the Group in the amount of HK$11.1 million were pledged to secure its short-term bank borrowings (31 December 2024: Nil). Save as disclosed, the Group did not have any charge on its assets as at 31 December 2025.

The Group operates a Mandatory Provident Fund retirement benefits scheme for all of its employees in Hong Kong, and provides its PRC employees with welfare schemes as required by the applicable laws and regulations of the PRC. The Group may also offer discretionary bonuses and grant share options under the share option scheme of the Company to its employees by reference to individual performance and the performance of the Group. Total staff costs incurred by the Group amounted to HK$85.9 million (2024: HK$137.7 million) during the Year.

EMOLUMENT POLICY

The emolument policy of the employees of the Group is set by the human resources department. The Group seeks to provide remuneration packages on the basis of the merit, qualifications and competence of the employees. The emoluments of the Directors and senior management of the Company are reviewed by the remuneration committee of the Board (“Remuneration Committee”), having regard to factors including the Group’s operating results, responsibilities of the Directors and senior management and comparable market statistics. The Company has maintained a share option scheme, the primary purpose of which is to motivate the eligible persons referred to in the scheme, which include executive Directors and employees of the Group, to optimise their future contributions to the Group and to reward them for their efforts.


30

EVENT AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

There were no significant events of the Group occurred since the end of the Year.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODE

According to code provision C.2.1 of the Corporate Governance Code (“Corporate Governance Code”) as set out in Part 2 of Appendix C1 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange (“Listing Rules”), the roles of the chairman and the chief executive officer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. On 30 September 2022, Mr. Gao Jun resigned as an executive Director and the chief executive officer of the Group (“CEO”). Ever since the resignation of Mr. Gao Jun, the Company has not been able to identify a suitable candidate for the position of the CEO and the office of the CEO therefore remains vacant. This constitutes a deviation from code provision C.2.1.

However, a management team which takes up the roles and duties of the CEO has been set up by the Group since Mr. Gao Jun’s resignation. The team comprises five members, including three executive Directors, namely Mr. Wong Cho Tung, Mr. Zhu Wenhui and Mr. Zhu Qi, and two members of the management of the Company, namely Mr. Yang Hanjie (the chief marketing officer of the Group’s operational headquarters in the PRC) and Mr. Yang Feng (the General Manager of the ODM Division of the Group’s operational headquarters in the PRC). In light of the above, even though the Company has not been able to appoint an individual to take up the role of the CEO since Mr. Gao Jun’s resignation, the Board considers that such a deviation from code provision C.2.1 of the Corporate Governance Code is appropriate under such circumstances.

Save as disclosed above, the Company has complied with the code provisions laid down in the Corporate Governance Code for the Year.

MODEL CODE FOR SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS BY DIRECTORS

The Company has adopted the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers as set out in Appendix C3 of the Listing Rules (“Model Code”) as its own code of conduct for dealing in securities of the Company by Directors. Having made specific enquiry of all Directors, all Directors have confirmed that they have complied with the required standard set out in the Model Code for the Year.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee has also reviewed the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the Year and has recommended their adoption by the Board.
