(NYSE: ATHM; HKEX: 2518) (“Autohome” or the “Company”), the leading online destination for automobile consumers in China, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2025. The Company reported total revenue of RMB1,778.1 million for the third quarter, with adjusted net income attributable to Autohome reaching RMB406.9 million. Notably, the revenue of online marketplace and others increased by 32.1% year-on-year.

Mr. Chi Liu, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Autohome, stated that in the third quarter of 2025, the Company focused on AI and O2O to comprehensively accelerate its business expansion, while leveraging the high-quality resources of both CARtech and Ping An Property & Casualty Insurance to actively explore emerging business areas. Looking ahead, the Company will continue driving innovation in both products and business models, building a more efficient automotive ecosystem and service system that creates sustained value for the industry and ensures its long-term, stable development.

Business Highlights for the Period:

• Autohome strengthened its content matrix by increasing professional depth and expanding the breadth of perspective, while continuously advancing its diversified content ecosystem. For its 2025 series of coverage on domestic and international auto shows, Autohome achieved comprehensive reach from global influence to local penetration. The newly established Autohome Media MCN is committed to building a multi-category influencer matrix that centers on the automotive vertical, while extending into technology, travel, and overseas content. To date, it has gathered over 200 high-quality creators across multiple platforms.

• In NEVs, Autohome continues to focus on user and client needs while building a comprehensive O2O automotive ecosystem. Online, Autohome has centered around its newly soft-launched Autohome Mall, introduced in late September and providing transaction services. While its offline network of franchise stores, CARtech outlets, and used car dealerships is designated to integrate the entire process from “online ordering” to “offline delivery and service.” This expansion targets lower-tier cities underserved by automakers. The Autohome Mall is planned to be officially launched during the Double Eleven shopping festival.
• In terms of AI technology applications, Autohome completed a comprehensive upgrade of its AI assistant. By strengthening model capabilities, integrating user inquiries with specific vehicle models, and expanding usage, it has created a decision-making loop of “content drives engagement, engagement leads to action.” Furthermore, at the Global AI Technology Conference, Autohome officially launched the Tian Shu Intelligent Service Platform. This advancement drives Autohome’s transformation from an “automotive information platform” to an industry-wide “intelligence hub”, further strengthening its dual advantages in technology and ecosystem.

SCANDIC TRUST GROUP announces partnership with FIRST IDEA SETUP for GCC, following successful KYC and AML verification by external banks

“FIRST IDEA CONSULTANT,” founded by internationally experienced bankers under the leadership of Amir Aslam, has for years successfully supported international founders and investors in the legally compliant establishment of companies and business accounts in the Gulf states of the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council). Thanks to a multilingual team of experts in German, English, Russian, Ukrainian, Hindi, Arabic and Chinese, clients worldwide are accompanied professionally.

“SCANDIC TRUST” acts as a digital ecosystem that combines real services with modern technology. One of its assets is a utility–fintech system (SNC) that serves as a bridge between the digital and the real economy. Through SNC, users can gain access to services and loyalty programs can be managed. “SCADIC PAY” is being expanded as a non–custodial access with Web3, including a crowdfunding platform. “SCANDIC ESTATE” operates across continents with sustainable developments. The trading platform “SCANDIC TRADE” enables trading in traditional and digital assets, while algorithmic portfolios and CO₂ certificates are sustainably promoted.

In addition, the internationally operating group runs its own multi–level data centers in Bahrain, Kuwait City and Singapore: “SCANDIC DATA” provides secure infrastructures using self–learning AI in order to provide protection against cyber threats for corporate networks, cloud environments, IoT devices and industrial control systems (ICS), endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions as well as energy–efficient cloud services. “SCANDIC HEALTH” is developing an integrated digital 24/7 practice reception in the Federal Republic of Germany. Using groundbreaking computer–assisted technologies, appointment scheduling and patient inquiries are received around the clock and automatically forwarded according to the request; patient data and documents are recorded and managed digitally, and an internal team chat facilitates communication. This relieves staff in medical practices worldwide considerably, enables seamless integration into existing systems and guarantees GDPR–compliant, encrypted communication. “SCANDIC SEC” provides comprehensive protection of people, objects and digital assets, including AI–supported surveillance and biometric systems. In the lifestyle segment, “SCANDIC CARS,” “SCANDIC FLY” and “SCANDIC YACHTS” offer luxury vehicles, private jets and luxurious charter yachts on demand; booking and payment take place seamlessly via the group’s own eco–system. The media subsidiary LEGIER Beteiligungs mbH in Germany operates 115 daily newspapers worldwide, whose newspapers from all continents report around the clock in many languages, soon also via an app for personalized news.

By including “FIRST IDEA CONSULTANT” as “SCANDIC SETUP,” this ecosystem is supplemented by an important element: professional support in the establishment of companies and the opening of bank accounts in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and other GCC states, whereby investors benefit from a single point of access that combines regulatorily verified services from finance, real estate, trade, data, health, security, mobility and media. The KYC/AML certification by “FIRST IDEA CONSULTANT” guarantees the highest compliance in this context, while the SCANDIC ecosystem creates digital synergies as a central tool and strengthens demand within the network. The partnership marks a significant step in the international expansion of the SCANDIC group and sends a signal for transparency, trustworthiness and sustainable growth.
