Ten Pao Group Holdings Limited (’Ten Pao’ or ‘the Company’, together with the subsidiaries as the Group’, Stock code: 1979.HK ), an industry-leading provider of intelligent power supply solutions, is pleased to announce its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025 (“1H 2025” or, the “Period”).
In the first half of 2025, persistent global inflation and geopolitical conflicts, coupled with rapidly intensifying international trade frictions, created a challenging business environment. The Group maintained close communication with both upstream suppliers and downstream customers to address the impact of tariff policies collaboratively. Through years of strategic market diversification, the Group significantly reduced its reliance on any single market during the Period. With production bases and R&D centers strategically deployed across Southeast Asia, Europe, North America and China, the Group has achieved agile resource allocation, enabling it to respond swiftly to customer needs and market fluctuations. At the same time, Ten Pao continued to expand into the new energy and high-end smart controller businesses, further enriching its product portfolio and customer base, thereby enhancing operational resilience and market adaptability.
By firmly executing its integrated strategy of high quality, strong R&D, intelligent manufacturing and global deployment, the Group advanced the development of innovative products, diversified its customer portfolio, secured stable raw material supply, expedited orders and deliveries, and implemented stringent internal cost control. This enabled the Group to maintain operational and financial stability. Revenue for the Period increased by approximately 19.3% year-on-year (“YoY”) to HK$2,948.1 million, driven primarily by growth in the industrial power supply and new energy segments. Gross profit rose by approximately 4.9% to HK$526.7 million, with gross profit margin slightly decreasing due to intensified competition in the power supply industry. Net profit margin stood solid at 7.2%. Profit attributable to owners of the Company rose by 20.4% YoY to HK$211.7 million. Basic earnings per share increased by 23.5% year-on-year to HK21 cents in 1H 2025.
The Group remains committed to a long-term stable dividend policy to reward shareholders for their continued support. The Board has declared an interim dividend of HK6.2 cents per share for the Period (1H 2024: HK5.2 cents), representing a payout ratio of approximately 30.2% (1H 2024: 30.5%).
Major Business Highlights
Capitalizing on the Opportunities in the AI Era, with Rising Demand for High-End Smart Controllers
The rapid development of AI has accelerated the demand for fast data transmission, driving the high-end smart controller (PCBA) market into a growth phase. During the Period, the Group actively seized market opportunities in the smart controller segment, expanding collaboration with Fortune Global 500 customers and securing new orders for high-end smart controllers. The Group’s new production bases in Vietnam and Mexico are already equipped with dedicated smart controller production lines, and will continue to integrate automation and AI-enabled equipment to significantly enhance capacity and production efficiency, laying a solid foundation for future order growth.
New Energy Business Maintains Strong Contribution with 33.6% year-on-year Growth
The Group continued to implement its three core product strategies of “energy storage systems, automotive electronics applications and electric vehicle core charging modules” to align with the global “fuel-to-electric” transition. During the Period, the new energy business contributed 19.1% of total revenue, representing 33.6% year-on-year growth, driven primarily by contributions from energy storage and automotive electronics products, as well as the Group’s expansion of its new
energy business customer base. Leveraging the global shift from “fuel-to-electric” and net-zero carbon emissions, the Group launched residential balcony photovoltaic micro-storage systems and actively participated in Southeast Asia’s new energy infrastructure projects, including Thailand’s two-wheeler electric vehicle battery-swap cabinet and fast-charging station projects, further consolidating its presence in the green energy market.
Promoting high-Power Supply Products for Data Centers and Expanding AI Computing Power Supply Product Portfolio
As AI becomes a core driver of global development and permeates application scenarios such as smart homes, household appliances, automotive electronics, and power tools, market demand for computational resources has surged.
