BRIGHT FUTURE (01351) announced that the group expects to record a loss attributable to owners of not less than approximately RMB 1.65 million for the first half of 2025, representing a decrease of approximately 147% compared to the profit attributable to owners of approximately RMB 3.54 million for the same period in 2024.

According to the announcement, the decrease in profit was mainly due to the group's increased investment in artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to enhance customer experience and improve operational efficiency, resulting in higher research and development expenses, which led to an increase in the group's general and administrative expenses. Additionally, the group's active expansion and development of new businesses resulted in increased office expenses and other costs.
