Strong Financial Performance with Significant Profit Growth

In the first half of 2025, Daming International achieved sales revenue of approximately RMB 21.2 billion and a net profit of RMB 22.8 million, marking a significant year-on-year increase of 141.6%. Gross profit totaled RMB 554 million, representing a 7.6% increase compared to the same period last year.

The company’s two core business segments—stainless steel and carbon steel—maintained stable growth. Stainless steel processing sales reached 996,000 tons, up 3.1% year-on-year, while processed carbon steel reached 2.391 million tons, with the total processing volume rising by 6.6% to 2.444 million tons. These results reflect the company’s enhanced production efficiency, improved market competitiveness, and strong overall momentum.

Execution of Major Projects Across Key Industries

During the reporting period, Daming International successfully executed numerous benchmark projects across various sectors, further strengthening its reputation as a comprehensive service solutions provider:

• Shipbuilding: Hubei Daming, in collaboration with a Jiangxi shipyard, launched a 135-meter high-end stainless steel chemical tanker project for the European market (certified by Lloyd’s Register). Zhejiang Daming supplied plate solutions for Zhoushan Ningxing’s 13,000 DWT duplex stainless steel tanker.

Accelerating Overseas Expansion and Global Market Integration

Daming International continues to advance its globalization strategy. Following the establishment of its European subsidiary in Germany, the company officially inaugurated its Russian representative office in Moscow in 2025, further strengthening its international service network.

In addition, Daming has expanded its outreach in Southeast Asia and the Americas while deepening collaborations with globally renowned enterprises, including Vietnam’s LILAMA Group, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Toshiba Energy, Chiyoda Chemical, and Komatsu. These strategic alliances span LNG, clean energy, marine engineering, and new energy sectors, further promoting Daming’s Made in China + Global Service model.

Technological innovation and industrial collaboration remain pillars of Daming International’s long-term strategy. The company’s subsidiary, Daming Heavy Industry, signed strategic cooperation agreements with Dongfang Steam Turbine and Dongfang Digital Technology, including contracts for intelligent manufacturing and module assembly in the energy sector.

Daming also made major strides in smart manufacturing. Hubei Daming successfully built Central China’s first dual-gigabit + cloud + AI smart steel processing factory, which received the Guanghua Cup Innovation Demonstration Award. The factory integrates 5G and AI technology to enable:

• Automated inbound and outbound logistics
• Real-time data tracking through code scanning

Looking ahead, Daming International remains committed to:

• Deepening its presence in high-end manufacturing
