Financial Highlights 

HONG KONG, Nov. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Vitasoy International Holdings Limited (“Vitasoy” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”, Stock Code: 00345) today announced its interim results ended 30 September 2025 (“the interim financial period”). 

During the interim financial period, the Group recorded a 6% decrease in revenue, primarily due to challenges faced by the Chinese Mainland operations, which were affected by softer market conditions. The Group’s gross profit margin and operating margin were at 51.1% and 7.6% respectively and the profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company was HK$172 million.

Mr. Winston Yau-lai Lo, Executive Chairman of Vitasoy International Holdings Limited, said at the press conference today, “External macro and competitive environment are evolving rapidly. The Chinese Mainland is at the forefront of this important evolution. Following some challenges in the first half of the financial year, Hong Kong Operation will work to accelerate growth in the second half of the financial year, while the operations in Australia and New Zealand and Singapore will endeavour to accelerate growth and further reduce operating losses. Despite the short-term challenges, we remain confident in our long-term potential for continuous scaling up.”

Based on the Group’s financial performance and cash position, the Board of Directors has declared an interim dividend of HK4.0 cents per ordinary share (previous interim financial period: HK4.0 cents per ordinary share), payable on 23 December 2025.

Chinese Mainland –
Revenue declined due to weakness in the general trade business not completely offset by the growth in the Omni channel including snack chains whilst maintaining double-digit operating profit margin

In the Chinese Mainland operations, the decline in revenue was primarily attributable to revenue contraction in general trade, partially offset by solid increases in the Omni channel including snack chains channel, which are now being scaled up. Vitasoy continued to focus on improving its commercial execution, securing the correct value equation and driving relevant product innovation. This has led to VITASOY growing market share in both the soy milk and plant milk categories, and VITA tea also improving its market share in the ready-to-drink tea category as the result of broad adoption of the more competitive pricing strategy and the successful launch of its new VITA Ya Shi Xiang Lemon Tea. 

The Chinese Mainland operations continued to maintain operating profit margin at 11% for the interim financial period owing to the implementation of cost optimisation measures, which helped offsetting the drop in sales.

Hong Kong Operation (Hong Kong SAR^[1], Macau SAR^[2] and Exports) –
Solid Hong Kong Operation performance negatively affected by temporary setbacks in the Vitaland business, Macau SAR and exports to the United States, but maintaining double-digit operating profit margin performance

Hong Kong SAR beverage business continued to strengthen its market leadership in the non-alcoholic beverages category. New product launches such as VITASOY Low Sugar Peach Soyabean Milk and VITA Ya Shi Xiang Lemon Tea together with the continuing popularity of the VLT Zero and Sparkling ranges and the solid market position of VITA No Sugar Tea sustained the Company’s strong leadership in these categories.

The Vitaland business was negatively affected by fewer school days during the interim financial period as a result of adverse weather conditions in the typhoon season. Vitasoy is currently addressing deteriorating sales in the softer retail market of the Macau SAR via new commercial strategies. 

The imposition of, and frequent changes to, tariffs imposed by the United States have had a negative impact on the North America business albeit not significant to the total Group revenue. The Group is adjusting the commercial strategy as the tariff situation evolves.

Australia and New Zealand –
Strong revenue growth and continued albeit gradual profitability improvements after manufacturing stabilisation

Australia and New Zealand registered 5% sales growth in local currency terms and gained market share on core platforms. This was the result of the full restoration of commercial activities following a recovery in manufacturing capacity following last year’s production issues, as well as ongoing cost reduction production efforts. Accordingly, the profitability improved with the operating loss being reduced significantly to HK$22 million as compared with the same period last year.

Singapore – 
Domestic and export tofu business continued to gain momentum, offset by some softness in beverage business

Total revenue decreased by 1% in local currency during the interim financial period. The loss from operations was significantly reduced by 53% in local currency terms.

Both the domestic and export tofu business continued gaining momentum during the interim financial period with sustained revenue growth. The comparative decline in beverage sales was mainly due to lower priced competitive products as well as the new distributor cycling off a higher base last year. 

The Philippines –

In the Philippines, the plant-based category continues to grow very healthily at double-digit year on year since Vitasoy’s entry, with the oat and almond segments leading such growth. The joint venture in the Philippines with Universal Robina Corporation continued to sustain the business. The Group is also determined to keep driving scale and improving profitability in this exciting market.

SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DJI, the global leader in civil drones and creative camera technology, today published a new DJI Enterprise case study demonstrating how DJI Docks and 3D models are transforming construction surveying and project management. The case focuses on Hyundai Engineering and Construction’s Namyangju Wangsuk Relocation Project in South Korea.

Hyundai E & C is setting a new benchmark for smart construction at scale with the help of DJI Docks, DJI’s drone–in–a–box enterprise solution. When completed, the Namyangju Wangsuk Relocation Project will be the nation’s first stacked underground road, featuring an upper underpass and a lower tunnel spanning 6.4 kilometers. Costing an estimated  1 trillion KRW, the site has been described as the single largest civil engineering project in Korea, requiring tightly integrated coordination among construction, scheduling, safety, and quality.

Throughout the relocation process, demolition and construction progressed almost in parallel. Drones were essential for site surveying, providing critical intel for deciding when and where crews should be mobilized and informing construction planning. Before automated aerial missions were possible, drone operations were manual and labor-intensive: dedicated staff needed to be on-site to manage charging, transporting, flying, and data storage. That changed when DJI Docks was integrated into daily workflows. After a few initial tests, it became clear that automated flights enabled real-time site monitoring, saving time and labor.

Flexible Deployments, More Efficient Workflows

Installed onsite, DJI Docks allow operators to plan missions remotely, schedule flights, and pilot docked drones on demand. For Hyundai E&C, this enabled teams to automate their charging-to-flight workflows while streamlining their data gathering and analysis into a unified platform. Teams can now collect site data every two weeks, enabling more accurate prioritization, scheduling, and issuance of subcontract work orders. The shared data environment reduces the need for frequent in-person meetings. Instead, teams can check updates and collaborate directly.

3D Models Streamline Progress Tracking and Verification

Another key shift has been the move from 2D CAD quantity takeoffs to 3D model-driven verification. Drone-derived measurements feed directly into volume calculations, which are cross-checked against 2D designs for accuracy. Multiple design layers are overlaid on current site conditions, allowing each discipline to review the information they need and plan efficiently. This has streamlined progress reporting: instead of manually marking up photos, teams now overlay official design drawings to compare planned and actual conditions with high precision. For on-site execution, this approach supports reliable quantity estimation, weekly and monthly progress tracking, and verification that construction matches design intent.

Automation Driving Smarter Construction

Automated site monitoring with DJI Docks covers the entire 6.4 km corridor, including hard-to-access zones, improving efficiency and reducing manual workload. Leaders at the site anticipate that these systems will expand rapidly across the industry. Hyundai E&C’s recent smart construction technology demonstrations at the same project—featuring digital twin dashboards, autonomous drones, robotics, and smart safety solutions—underscore this momentum and point to a broader transformation in field operations.

• European climate-tech growth equity firm Blume Equity led the round with participation from Energy Impact Partners and existing investors.
• Overstory also announced its next generation of Wildfire Intelligence, now using a proprietary Fuel Detection Model to dynamically assess wildfire risk.
• Tamara Mendelsohn, former CMO at Eventbrite, has been appointed Chief Operating Officer to guide the company’s next phase of growth.

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Overstory, the leader in vegetation intelligence for the utility industry, today announced $43M in Series B funding. The round was led by Blume Equity, with participation from Energy Impact Partners LP (“EIP”) and existing investors including B Capital, Semapa Next, Pale Blue Dot, CapitalT, Convective Capital, Bentley Systems, MCJ and Moxxie Ventures. The company will use the funding to accelerate development of its AI-based risk models, advance its wildfire prevention offering, and expand globally.

For utilities, vegetation is not only the leading cause of outages and wildfires, but often the single largest operational expense. In recent years, tree mortality, labor costs, demand and extreme weather events have all increased, driving utilities to find new ways to sharpen how they manage vegetation to build more resilience and reliability. Overstory uses high-resolution satellite data and AI to help utilities pinpoint risks tree by tree – reducing outages, preventing wildfires, and ensuring power remains safe, reliable, and affordable.

“Innovation and technology have become the pillars of progress when it comes to wildfire prevention,” said Andy Abranches, VP of Wildfire Mitigation at Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). “Satellite data, AI and the vegetation-management intelligence we get from companies like Overstory are transforming how utilities think about wildfire prevention. The details are in the data, and that precision allows us to deploy our crews where wildfire risk is greatest.”

Michelle Capiod, Co-Founding Partner at Blume Equity, said: “The companies that will drive the greatest impact on our planet are those that deliver climate solutions with real economic value. Overstory exemplifies this — transforming satellite data into actionable insights that help utilities both prevent climate-related disasters and drive operational efficiencies. Their customer-first approach and leadership in AI has enabled them to develop cutting-edge, yet highly practical, solutions that deliver a tangible return on investment. This is exactly the kind of scalable, high impact climate solution we’re proud to support at Blume Equity.” 

The funding follows seven years of catalytic growth, with Overstory now serving six of the ten largest utilities across the Americas. The team has grown to more than 80 people, representing 16 nationalities and spanning disciplines from machine learning and data science to arborists and wildfire experts. Guiding the company’s next phase will be its new Chief Operating Officer, Tamara Mendelsohn. A seasoned operator and former Eventbrite CMO, Mendelsohn brings experience in scaling a company from seed stage to IPO.

“Utilities are at a pivotal moment, facing more extreme weather events every year,” said James Sprinz, Principal at EIP. “Overstory is tackling this challenge in a way that utilities can act on immediately, making sense of satellite data to spot the exact tree to trim, pole to clear, or asset to replace.”

Overstory Expands Wildfire Intelligence To Prevent Catastrophic Fires Before They Start

Overstory has built its reputation helping utilities identify vegetation that could cause outages and sparks. Today, the company launched the next evolution of its Wildfire Intelligence product, now backed by its proprietary, industry-first Fuel Detection Model. The technology helps utilities pinpoint areas across their network that contain the highest risk fuels, where a spark is most likely to ignite and spread. Unlike publicly available fire risk maps commonly used today, Overstory’s AI-backed tools recommend the exact locations and actions that will have an outsized impact on wildfire mitigation.

“Utilities are on the front lines of keeping communities safe, and they’re eager to use the best data available. When we talk about how satellites and remote sensing can identify dying trees and wildfire risk, they lean in,” said Fiona Spruill, CEO of Overstory. “We’re grateful to our forward-thinking investors for supporting this next chapter – expanding our intelligence product to address storms and wildfires, helping utilities build a more resilient and reliable grid.”

About Ginger at PARKROYAL on Beach Road

Ginger is the celebration of diverse ethnicities and food cultures of Singapore. Helmed by resident culinary master Executive Chef Vincent Aw, Ginger features an affordable and irresistible á la carte buffet from a halal-certified kitchen, showcasing authentic local flavours of Singapore and the region. Engage your senses with five halal-certified live food stations, offering one of the best halal hotel buffets in Singapore. Ginger clinched the top spot in the Best Halal Restaurant and Best Halal Buffet Restaurant category at the 2025 Epicurean Star Awards, hosted by the Restaurant Association of Singapore to honour outstanding achievements in Singapore’s F&B industry.

The all-day dining restaurant is inspired by the abundance of Singapore’s natural beauty in the cosmopolitan city-state. This is exemplified by timbre flooring, marbled tabletops, and languidly rotating rattan ceiling fans. The stunning ambience of Ginger is brought to life by award-winning Singapore-based Australian designer Emma Maxwell. Natural, raw elements such as timber and stone are lightly accented with nickel and brass but softened by a floral narrative through specially commissioned wallpapers and furniture textiles by fabric designer Kerrie Brown. The restaurant was recognized as the category winner from Singapore in the Alfresco & Biophilic category by Restaurant & Bar Design Awards 2021.
