Executive summary

  • Revenue for 2024 was RMB111.7 million (US$15.3 million), down 35.8% from 2023, mainly due to suspension of cryptocurrency mining in the US and Kazakhstan.

  • Net loss attributable to shareholders was RMB73.4 million (US$10.1 million) in 2024, compared to net income of RMB20.0 million in 2023, reflecting lower revenue and continued operating expenses.

    excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

    One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
