Top Aussie Tin Producer Offers to Acquire 28% of Greentech (HK00195)
Allowing Shareholders an Exit at a Premiumand Possible Increased Interest in Tasmanian Mine25 June 2025 -- The unsolicited partial offer (“Partial Offer”) by Metals X Limited (“Metals X”), Australia’s largest tin producer, to acquire up to 28% of Greentech Technology International Limited (“Greentech”, HKEx stock code: 00195) commences today, allowing shareholders of Greentech to realise their investment, at a premium, in the suspended listed company. Through acquiring a stake in Greentech, Metals X intends to increase its interest in Australia’s largest tin mine, jointly owned by it and Greentech.Salient features of the Partial Offer:–Metals X seeks to acquire up to 382,480,000 Greentech shares Offer price at HK$0.35 per share in cash A 25% premium over the last closing price Greentech shares are under a prolonged trading suspension from 2 September 2024 (with delisting deadline on 1 March 2026) The deadline for acceptance of the Partial Offer is 4:00 pm on Wednesday, 23 July 2025Metals X and Greentech (through its non-wholly owned subsidiary) currently each hold 50% interest in the Renison Tin Mine in Northwest Tasmania, Australia through each of their 50% stake in Bluestone Mines Tasmania Joint Venture Pty Ltd (“BMTJV”), which is also the operator of the Renison Tin Mine.Renison is Australia’s richest tin ore field and one of the world’s largest highest-grade tin ore fields. In 2024, the Renison Tin Mine produced approximately 11,000 tonnes of tin, accounting for approximately 3% of world tin production in the same year. “We hope that by becoming a significant shareholder of Greentech, which indirectly holds 50% equity interest in BMTJV through its non-wholly owned subsidiary, we can contribute to the stability of Greentech’s operation and improve its corporate governance. For shareholders wishing to realise their investment amidst Greentech’s prolonged trading suspension, the Partial Offer, which is unconditional in all respects, provides them a viable exit at a premium price. I believe the Partial Offer is beneficial to shareholders and Greentech as a whole,” noted Mr. Peter Gunzburg, the Chairman of Metals X.“The Renison Tin Mine is an important asset to Metals X. With the intended expansion of our interest in the joint venture through an equity interest in Greentech, we expect to play a pivotal role in continuing the healthy development of the Renison operations,” added Mr. Brett Smith, Executive Director of Metals X.If Metals X owns 10% or more of the issued shares of Greentech upon closing of the Partial Offer, Metals X will consider nominating new director(s) to Greentech’s board of directors, and will assist Greentech to review its operational efficiency, financial reporting and corporate governance.The principal activities of Greentech are exploration, development and mining of tin and copper-bearing ore at Renison Tin Mine through BMTJV. Trading in Greentech shares has been suspended since 2 September 2024, due to, among others, delay in publication of Greentech’s interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2024 and annual results for the year ended 31 December 2024. Certain directors of Greentech also complained, among others, about three incidents that happened in 2022, being:–the repayment of a HK$67 million loan suspiciously to an individual instead of to the corporate lender (who complained in 2024 not having received the loan repayment); a HK$48 million subscription in an investment fund which defaulted redemption obligation; and a HK$10 million investment in an associate which was subsequently written off.Metals X is a limited company incorporated in Australia, with its shares listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX stock code: MLX). Its principal activities include (i) investment in the BMTJV operating a tin mine in Australia; and (ii) investments in companies undertaking exploration and development of tin, gold and base metals projects in Australia.- End -Issued by: Metals X LimitedThrough: CorporateLink LimitedMedia Enquiries: CorporateLink LimitedShiu Ka Yue Tel: 2801 6198 / 9029 1865 Email: sky@corporatelink.com.hk Zoe Mak Tel: 2801 6090 / 6539 3300 Email: zoe@corporatelink.com.hk Rainy Zhang Tel: 2801 7393 / 9608 8187 Email: rainy@corporatelink.com.hk 25/06/2025 Dissemination of a Financial Press Release, transmitted by EQS News.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Media archive at www.todayir.com

China Hongqiao releases a positive profit alert and joins the ranks of global high-dividend stocks with a yield above 10%, recommended for long-term investment
On the evening of June 23, China Hongqiao (01378.HK) released a positive profit alert, projecting an approximately 35% year-on-year rise in net profit for the first half of fiscal 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The growth is primarily driven by higher prices and increased sales of aluminum alloy and alumina products, which boosted gross margins. The development is expected to draw renewed investor attention.As a company characterized by low valuation and high dividend yield, China Hongqiao has attracted significant attention from institutional investors. In fact, dividend-paying sectors have long maintained a loyal base of investors drawn by the stable returns offered by those exhibiting similar financial profiles.China Hongqiao distinguished itself with a dividend yield exceeding 10% in 2024—a rare achievement for an industry-leading company, even in the Hong Kong market with lots of high-yield company choices. As of June 23, its share price approached HK$16, hovering near record highs and showing potential to break past levels.The Hang Seng Mainland China Companies High Dividend Yield Index (HSMCHYIT.HI) has gained over 17% year-to-date and nearly 25% over the past 12 months. High-dividend stocks have attracted strong investor interest. China Hongqiao, for instance, has surged nearly 45% so far this year.China Hongqiao is a fully integrated aluminum giant, covering thermal power, mining, alumina, liquid aluminum alloys, aluminum alloy ingots, aluminum alloy cast-rolled products, aluminum busbars, high-precision aluminum sheets, strips and foils, as well as new materials. It is also one of the world’s leading aluminum producers.Since its listing, the company has consistently maintained dividend levels well above the industry’s average. According to data from Wind, China Hongqiao has distributed dividends 19 times since going public in 2006, with total payouts nearing HK$60 billion and an average payout ratio of over 40%.In 2024, amid rapid earnings growth, China Hongqiao’s dividend payout ratio exceeded 60%, with a total annual dividend of HK$1.61 per share. At the current share price, its dividend yield surpasses 10%, far higher than the 3.76% average dividend yield of Hang Seng Index constituent stocks.This reflects the company’s stable and growth-oriented operations. Supported by lower costs and a robust aluminum market, China Hongqiao delivered record results in 2024: revenue reached RMB 156.17 billion, up 16.9% year-on-year, while net profit soared 95.2% to RMB 22.37 billion.While the aluminum market’s strong momentum continues this year, China’s domestic electrolytic aluminum inventory remains at multi-year lows, while global inventories are steadily declining, thereby sustaining solid price support.During the same period, futures prices for alumina—a key raw material for electrolytic aluminum production—continued to decline. Data shows that in April 2025, China’s alumina industry had an average tax-inclusive full cost of RMB 3,103.17 per ton, down RMB 106.41 per ton (3.32%) from RMB 3,209.58 per ton in March.Supported by these factors, profits in the electrolytic aluminum sector have remained elevated. Aided by falling coal prices that lowered major energy and power costs, China Hongqiao maintained robust growth in Q1 2025. Its core subsidiary, Shandong Hongqiao, reported a 15.56% year-on-year increase in revenue and a 46.46% year-on-year surge in net profit.Additionally, China Hongqiao’s long-term overseas investments are approaching a harvest stage. Among them, the Simandou iron ore project in Guinea—the world’s largest greenfield mining development—is now in its final stage, with production and shipments expected to begin by the end of 2025. With a planned annual capacity of 60 million tons, the project is expected to further boost China Hongqiao’s profitability. Driven by the strong performance, China Hongqiao’s share price has soared significantly since the beginning of 2024, rebounding over 200% from its low at the start of the year.Nevertheless, this aluminum giant remains significantly undervalued. According to data from Wind, its recent trailing P/E ratio is just around 6×, significantly lower than that of other metals and mining companies listed in Hong Kong, suggesting considerable potential for revaluation.Moreover, with a domestic production cap on electrolytic aluminum, China Hongqiao’s industry leadership further underscores its scarcity value. Its long-standing vertically integrated operations further enhance its risk resilience and reinforce its competitive moat, supporting strong long-term growth prospects.In fact, such significant undervaluation of high-quality assets is not uncommon in the Hong Kong market. Data from Wind shows that the average trailing P/E ratio for aluminum companies in the A-share market is currently around 12×, significantly higher than their counterparts in Hong Kong.Encouragingly, China Hongqiao is advancing the restructuring of its core aluminum asset, Hongtuo Industrial, together with its A-share listed subsidiary, Hontron Holding. The deal was approved by Hontron Holding’s shareholders on June 9. Once completed, it is expected to unlock greater valuation potential for Hongqiao’s core aluminum assets in the A-share market.Huatai Securities noted that the restructuring of Hongtuo Industrial will enhance China Hongqiao’s asset securitization and boost its market influence. Coupled with its increased dividend payout ratio—raised to over 60% in 2024—the company is well-positioned for a potential valuation re-rating. Western Securities commented that, from an industry perspective, capacity caps in electrolytic aluminum and a favorable market cycle underscore the long-term scarcity value of China Hongqiao. From a company-specific perspective, Hongqiao benefits from vertically integrated operations, stable profitability, cost advantages from self-generated power and the strategic relocation of some capacity to Yunnan in alignment with industry trends. Western Securities has assigned a “Buy” rating to China Hongqiao, anticipating a future re-rating of the company’s valuation.24/06/2025 Dissemination of a Financial Press Release, transmitted by EQS News.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Media archive at www.todayir.com

MegaPro Unveils Promising Phase I Results for Tween-80-Free Anti-Cancer Drug MPB-1734
Taipei, June 10, 2025 — MegaPro Biomedical Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as “MegaPro” , TWSE: 6827), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced strong Phase I clinical results for its next-generation anti-cancer drug, MPB-1734. Developed using MegaPro’s proprietary nano-micelle platform, MPB-1734 is a novel, Tween-80-free formulation of cabazitaxel (Jevtana®), designed to reduce toxicity and enhance clinical outcomes in patients with advanced solid tumors.Key findings reveal that MPB-1734 offers a safer, more tolerable treatment profile—with fewer blood-related and gastrointestinal side effects—while maintaining potent anti-tumor activity. Based on these outcomes, the recommended Phase II dose has been set at 25 mg/m², higher than the currently approved dose for cabazitaxel (20 mg/m²), highlighting the potential for superior efficacy with fewer trade-offs.Key Highlights from the Phase I Trial:No Allergic ReactionsUnlike traditional cabazitaxel, which carries a black box warning for hypersensitivity due to its use of Tween-80, MPB-1734 showed no allergic responses in any patients.Improved Safety ProfileAt 25 mg/m², MPB-1734 demonstrated a Grade ≥3 neutropenia rate of just 29%, a sharp reduction compared to >80% with cabazitaxel. No moderate or severe diarrhea was observed, compared to 6% Grade 3 incidence with the reference drug.Encouraging Early EfficacyIn evaluable patients, disease control was achieved in 76.9%, with a clinical benefit rate of 61.5%. One patient with head and neck cancer achieved a partial response lasting over 30 treatment cycles, and seven patients maintained stable disease.No Peripheral Neuropathy ObservedUnlike conventional taxane-based drugs, which frequently cause nerve damage (7–13% incidence in CBZ), no cases of peripheral neuropathy were reported in any MPB-1734 patients.President Commentary“This data represents a breakthrough in formulation science,” said Dr. Yuan-Hung Hsu, Presiden of MegaPro. “By removing Tween-80, we not only reduced adverse events but also preserved—and possibly enhanced—therapeutic impact. MPB-1734 is a strong candidate for patients needing better tolerated second-line therapies, especially in hard-to-treat tumors.” Dr. Hsu added, “Our results in non-approved indications like head and neck cancer are especially exciting. MPB-1734 has the potential to expand cabazitaxel’s therapeutic reach while improving patients’ quality of life.”What’s NextMegaPro has completed its Phase I data analysis and is preparing to initiate the next stage of development after its upcoming fundraising round. The company plans to pursue accelerated regulatory approval via the 505(b)(2) pathway, enabling a faster path to market. This milestone positions MegaPro to unlock significant value in the oncology treatment landscape and drive the next phase of company growth.10/06/2025 Dissemination of a Financial Press Release, transmitted by EQS News.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Media archive at www.todayir.com

Backed by robust AI capabilities, Kuaishou continues to innovate and expand its service offerings to enhance user experience and value creation. In 1Q25, Kuaishou reported total revenue of RMB 32.6 billion, up 10.9% year-over-year, with adjusted net profit reaching RMB 4.6 billion and an adjusted net margin of 14.0%. Notably, the company achieved its first-ever quarterly operating profit for the overseas segment. Monthly active users (MAUs) reached 712 million, and daily active users (DAUs) stood at 441 million, with an average daily usage time per DAU of 133.8 minutes. E-commerce continued its strong momentum, with gross merchandise volume (GMV) rising 15% year-over-year to RMB 332 billion.AI Fuels the Short Video Boom.China’s short video sector remains in a high-growth phase, increasingly driven by AI. The online audiovisual market reached RMB 1.2 trillion in 2024, up 6.1% year-over-year. As of December 2024, short video users in China surpassed 1 billion, with average daily usage per user ranking highest among all internet applications. By capturing fragmented attention spans through compelling visuals, algorithmic distribution, and ease of consumption, short videos quickly command user engagement. Kuaishou is at the forefront of this AI-powered transformation. Kuaishou’s proprietary AI video generation platform, “Kling AI” (可灵),is China’s first paid AI video tool designed for both consumers and professional creators. The underlying AI infrastructure supports various applications including dynamic ad delivery, AIGC (AI-generated content), AI virtual anchors, and intelligent customer service.Kling AI Has Rapidly Become A New Growth Engine in Kuaishou’s AI Monetization Strategy.As China’s first paid AI video generation tool for professional users, it has achieved early commercialization success. The product prioritizes model quality and targets the “prosumer” segment—users who combine consumer influence with professional-grade purchasing power, such as content creators and digital marketers. In 1Q25, Kling AI generated over RMB 150 million in revenue, with nearly 70% contributed by paid subscriptions from prosumer users. The platform’s global user base has exceeded 22 million, with enterprise clients (via API integration) surpassing 10,000. Kling AI now serves multiple verticals including content creation, advertising, film and animation, gaming, and smart devices—with a high enterprise renewal rate.Kling AI Continues Rapid Iteration, Delivering High Visual Quality with Exceptional Cost Efficiency.Kling AI continues to iterate rapidly, enhancing both quality and efficiency. Following the April launch of Kling 2.0—with major improvements in semantics, motion, and aesthetics—the new 2.1 series raises the bar on cost-effectiveness and speed. Kling 2.1 generates 5-second videos for just 20 Inspiration Points (720p) or 35 Points (1080p)—offering high performance at no added cost. In high-quality mode, videos render in under one minute, well ahead of industry peers. As a global leader in visual AI, Kling now offers a broader, more efficient solution set, meeting diverse content creation needs with superior value and speed.MVL Framework Unlocks Broad Commercial Potential.Kuaishou’s newly launched MVL (multi-modal visual language) framework enables richer expression by integrating various input formats—text, images, videos, sounds, and motion data—into the creative workflow. This approach better captures and realizes creative intent compared to text alone. Kling AI 2.0 adopts this framework to support more precise and expressive content creation. Commercial applications span advertising, professional content creation, film and television production, and entertainment. With the official launch of Kling 2.0 on April 15, AI monetization is expected to accelerate significantly in FY2025.AI Enhances E-commerce Efficiency.AI-generated content is also empowering Kuaishou’s e-commerce operations. AIGC improves merchant efficiency by reducing operating costs through automated content creation, intelligent matching, and virtual customer service. Using video recognition and DeepSeek’s semantic understanding, Kuaishou can automatically generate highlight clips from livestreams to showcase product features and capture long-tail traffic. As of 1Q25, daily GMV from AI-generated livestream clips has increased by over 300% year-over-year.Attractive Valuation Supported by AI and E-commerce Momentum.With continued GMV growth exceeding 15% year-over-year and rapid AI business expansion, Kuaishou’s valuation appears attractive. Among its three core segments, “Other Services” is expected to be the fastest-growing, driven by Kling AI and e-commerce synergies. We forecast revenue from “Other Services” to grow 18% year-over-year in FY2025. Kuaishou is typically valued using the EV/EBITDA method. The stock currently trades at HK$51.65 per share, with a market capitalization of approximately HK$221.6 billion. Market consensus expects EBITDA of HK$32.0 billion and HK$37.7 billion for FY2025 and FY2026, implying EV/EBITDA multiples of 5.5x and 4.7x, respectively—well below the industry average of 9.8x and 8.3x.
