Emerging designers take the spotlight at YDC 2025 ACN Newswire

Emerging designers take the spotlight at YDC 2025

HONG KONG, Sep 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and sponsored by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA)*, Asia’s annual fashion extravaganza CENTRESTAGE concluded successfully on Saturday, 6 September. The highlight of the closing evening was the grand finale of the Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest 2025 (YDC), where 10 up-and-coming local fashion designers presented their highly original collections.Featuring a diverse range of styles, this year’s YDC finalists combined boundary-pushing creativity with refined traditional craftsmanship, perfectly echoing the contest’s theme, “How ‘Bout You'”. Contestants were encouraged to boldly express their personal visions and dreams through fashion, unleashing creativity while courageously pursuing their goals. The evening welcomed a legion of celebrities and artists including Marf@COLLAR, Tiger@MIRROR, Janet Ma, Kayla Wong, Irisa Wong, Lagchun, Bruce Tong, Ka Lai, Madboii, Zelos Wong, Brian Chan, Saito Chong and Ocean On, adding glamour and excitement to the competition as they watched the runway show and cheered on the 10 finalists.After careful deliberation, a panel of professional judges selected four major award winners from the finalists’ collections. Chung Ka-ching, Tiger emerged as Champion, receiving a cash prize of HK$60,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by Fang Brothers Knitting Ltd and a HK$3,000 CASETiFY gift voucher. In addition, Lau Hei-nga received the Excellence Award and Best Art Direction Award, securing a cash prize of HK$40,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by MINI HK and a HK$2,000 CASETiFY gift voucher for the former, and collecting a five-day course at VOGUE College of Fashion in London and an overseas study trip sponsored by VOGUE Hong Kong, with a total value of HK$30,000, plus a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher, for the latter. The “My Favourite Collection” Award, decided by public voting, went to Yip Wai-lam, Mook, who was awarded a HK$20,000 Lee Gardens Area e-Gift Certificate sponsored by Hysan Development and a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.The full list of winners from YDC 2025 is as follows:Champion: Chung Ka-ching, Tiger; Design: “Bior”Excellence Award: Lau Hei-nga; Design: “In Pain”Best Art Direction Award: Lau Hei-nga; Design: “In Pain”My Favourite Collection Award: Yip Wai-lam, Mook; Design: “Modern Animals”Chung Ka-ching, Tiger, winner of the Champion title, presented a collection titled “Bior”, which is a pun on a classic fashion brand. She uses bootleg design techniques to cleverly fuse the rugged elements of grassroots street life with the refined silhouettes of high fashion. This subverts traditional fashion narratives and prompts viewers to reflect on class and aesthetics. Her “Bior” collection is not only a playful take on a luxury brand but also symbolises a challenge to the boundaries of mainstream fashion. Receiving the award, Ms Chung remarked: “I am truly overwhelmed by winning – a mix of surprise and excitement. I believe the YDC is absolutely an important platform for local fashion designers to step onto the international stage. It is the largest stage for emerging talent in Hong Kong and a crucial springboard for designers. Not only does it give the new generation greater exposure, but it also enables us to further develop and amplify our brands and creative visions.”Excellence Award and Best Art Direction winner Lau Hei-nga presented the collection “In Pain”, which reveals the blurred boundaries between agony and ecstasy. This sensory experience is deeply connected to her lifelong battle with eczema – the fleeting pleasure of scratching, followed by blood, wounds and scars, with the physical and emotional tug-of-war forming the core inspiration for her creations. Receiving the award, Ms Lau shared: “I am truly thrilled to receive this award, especially after investing so much time in preparing my collection. At the same time, I have gained immensely from the YDC. With its diverse and far-reaching audience, the contest has allowed many more people to discover my brand and my work.”The “My Favourite Collection” Award, decided by public voting, was won by Yip Wai-lam, Mook for the collection “Modern Animals”, which fuses human and animal characteristics to create a monstrous aesthetic that depicts the workplace as an urban jungle. Upon being presented with the award, Mr Yip said: “My biggest takeaway from participating in the YDC this year has been learning to embrace both success and failure with peace of mind. At the same time, the competition is more than just a platform for recognition – it is a significant stage where fashion designers at different stages in their careers can discover themselves and grow to their full potential. For every new-generation designer, the YDC is a platform that encourages us to shine.”International judge delighted to see Hong Kong nurturing the next generation of designersThis year’s YDC featured a distinguished judging panel comprising seasoned professionals from the fashion industry and media. The panel was chaired by Katherine Fang, Chairlady of the HKTDC Garment Advisory Committee, who served as Chief Judge. The VIP Judge role was taken up by Charles Jeffrey, founder and designer of acclaimed UK fashion label Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY. Overseas Judge Acielle Tanbetova, founder of international street-style platform STYLE DU MONDE, also joined the panel. Other esteemed judges included Ingrid Chen Mandonnaud, Vice President of Global Brand Marketing and Communications at the Rosewood Hotel Group; Jonathan Lee, Co-founder of brand consultancy The Molecule; Cherry Mui, Style and Fashion Content Director of VOGUE Hong Kong; and Tracey Cheng, Vice President of Merchandise Planning and Business Development at I.T.VIP Judge Mr Jeffrey expressed his appreciation for the young contestants and their inspirations. “I think the YDC is fantastic. It’s amazing how Hong Kong nurtures its young design talents, giving them a major platform to showcase their work to international audiences and industry figures like myself. Personally, I found it inspiring to see how openly they shared their research and inspirations. It was truly inspiring,” he said.Mentoring the YDC contestants this year were Victoria Tang-Owen, Founder & Creative Director of Thirty30 Creative and Victoria Tang Studio, and Artistic & Cultural Director of Shanghai Tang, together with Kit Wan, Founder & Designer of Kit Wan Studio. Drawing on their extensive industry experience, the pair provided valuable guidance to the 10 finalists throughout the competition.Marf@COLLAR ignites the stage with alumni YDC designersFor the ninth consecutive year, MINI Hong Kong has been proud to serve as a major sponsor of the YDC. This year, the brand collaborated with two alumni YDC designers, Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE) and Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM), together with singer Marf@COLLAR, to stage a spectacular fashion performance alongside the debut of the all-new 2025 MINI Convertible. The collaboration embodied MINI’s next-generation design aesthetics and its vision for sustainable and environmentally friendly innovation.Photo download: http://bit.ly/3V7Ht6ZJonathan Lee (first left), Co-founder of brand consultancy The Molecule; Acielle Tanbetova (second left), founder of international street-style platform STYLE DU MONDE; Ingrid Chen Mandonnaud (third left), Vice President of Global Brand Marketing and Communications at the Rosewood Hotel Group; Raymond Tan (fourth left), Managing Director of BMW Hong Kong Services Ltd; Sophia Chong (fifth left), HKTDC Deputy Executive Director; Charles Jeffrey (seventh left), founder and designer of acclaimed UK fashion label Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY; Katherine Fang (eighth left), Chairlady of the HKTDC Garment Advisory Committee; Cherry Mui (second right), Style and Fashion Content Director of VOGUE Hong Kong; and Tracey Cheng (first right), Vice President of Merchandise Planning and Business Development at I.T. were pictured with the three YDC 2025 winners.ChampionDesigner: Chung Ka-ching, TigerDesign: “Bior”The design: “Grassroots labourers are often excluded from the mainstream fashion narrative. By translating their traces into couture’s coded language, it compels audiences to reexamine the relationship between fashion and class hierarchies.”“Bior” uses humour to merge haute couture tailoring with the coarse details of grassroots life –for example, reimagining fan covers as ornate hats, mimicking the texture of plastic bags, or incorporating the clashing colours of neon lights. The designs capture the dynamics and emotional tensions of labourers, while deconstructed tailoring and exaggerated proportions express both the desolation and vitality of street life. Through this satirical yet profound fashion language, Chung reveals how grassroots labourers are excluded from the fashion narrative and seeks to reconstruct traces of their existence through the visual vocabulary of high fashion.Prizes: Cash prize of HK$60,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by Fang Brothers Knitting Ltd and a HK$3,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.Excellence Award and Best Art Direction AwardDesigner: Lau Hei-ngaDesign: “In Pain”The design: “When we experience pain, our brains respond by releasing these happy chemicals, which can evoke feelings of euphoria.”“In Pain” expresses the complexity of pain through textures and colours, using synthetic skin and layered tailoring to mimic wounds and scars. At the same time, sensual and feminine silhouettes – with smooth curves and tight cuts – suggest the allure of pleasure. The designs incorporate aesthetic elements: knots evoking a sense of restraint, sharp metallic embellishments contrasting with soft leather, weaving a visual language that is both conflicting and harmonious. By incorporating her personal experience with eczema into her designs, Lau turns clothing into a vessel for pain and pleasure, challenging perceptions of sensation and beauty.Prizes (Excellence Award): Cash prize of HK$40,000, an overseas study trip sponsored by MINI HK and a HK$2,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.Prizes (Best Art Direction Award): A five-day course at VOGUE College of Fashion in London and an overseas study trip sponsored by VOGUE Hong Kong, with a total value of HK$30,000, and a HK$1,000 CASETiFY gift voucher.My Favourite Collection AwardDesigner: Yip Wai-lam, MookDesign: “Modern Animals”The design: “The workplace feels like a stage in the food chain, where instincts of competition and survival come alive.”The collection of “Modern Animals” features shirts, trousers and suits as its foundation, incorporating various office symbols to create dynamic silhouettes of the workers. Drawing inspiration from the collision between animals’ primal power and the coldness of urban life, the designs feature grotesque cuts and contrasting materials to showcase the diverse faces of workers from the bottom to the top, and their physical and mental exhaustion as they toil like animals in this concrete jungle.

This year, the brand collaborated with two alumni YDC designers, Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE) and Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM), to present a fashion collection inspired by its latest 2025 MINI Convertible, showcasing MINI’s next-generation design aesthetics and commitment to sustainable innovation. MINI x Jesse Lee (JESSE LEE)A surreal fusion of Edwardian elegance and rebellious futurism, “Nine Lives Odyssey” reimagines the whimsical, psychedelic cat illustrations of Louis Wain through a lens of sustainable innovation and gender-fluid design. Drawing from Wain’s anthropomorphic feline art and the refined sportswear of the Edwardian era, the collection blends structured tailoring with playful deconstruction.MINI x Viki Tsang (GNASTIY.COM)The Spring/Summer 2026 collection of GNASTIY.COM reflects on authenticity within digital illusion. Inspired by social media filters, the brand translates digital visual codes into real-world garment constructions. Print techniques disrupt surface expectations, blurring the tactile identity of the fabrics. 3D printing, a GNASTIY.COM signature, appears in sculptural detail work, merging seamlessly with a hybrid of materials to articulate a distinctly futuristic and digitally charged fashion vocabulary.FASHIONALLY COLLECTIONSAs a platform dedicated to nurturing local fashion talents, FASHIONALLY.COM staged four shows during CENTRESTAGE including FASHIONALLY COLLECTION #25, FASHIONALLY Presentation: LAPEEWEE, FASHIONALLY Presentation: MOODLABBYLORRAINE, and FASHIONALLY Presentation: KOWLOON CITY BOY. The three “Presentation” shows featured immersive stage installations that allowed audiences to step inside the creative worlds of the brands. In addition, previous contestants from the Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest (YDC) took part in exhibitions and other runway shows during the fair, including Derek Chan (DEMO) and Max Tsang (IP AXIS INDUSTRIAL STUDIO). FASHIONALLY COLLECTION #25 phenotypsetter / Theme: “Curated Fluidity”MARCCH / Theme: “Transition”Oplus2 / Theme: “Shape Me Up”OUS / Theme: “Exoskeleton”FASHIONALLY Presentation: LAPEEWEETheme: Baroque Dream LAPEEWEE’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “Baroque Dream”, draws inspiration from the opulence of Baroque aesthetics, reinterpreted through the lens of modern casualwear. This womenswear collection features a harmonious blend of plaid, denim and lace, creating a balance between elegance and comfort.Dynamic details such as knots and drawstrings inject movement and energy into the designs. The use of corset-inspired silhouettes accentuates the female form, while Dutch-style oversized collars trimmed with lace add a touch of romantic refinement.“Baroque Dream” not only preserves the luxurious essence of the Baroque era but also celebrates the confidence and individuality of modern women, offering a wardrobe that is both stylish and expressive.FASHIONALLY Presentation: MOODLABBYLORRAINETheme: LIBRA ANIMA VESTRAMOODLABBYLORRAINE’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “LIBRA ANIMA VESTRA”, translates from Latin as “Free Your Soul”. This collection tells the story of a liberating summer road trip along Route 66 in America, where the highlight is hopping between music festivals –a celebration of self-expression through rhythm and movement.Deeply inspired by bohemian and cowboy culture, the collection merges free-spirited artistry with rugged Western elements, creating a vibrant and expressive aesthetic. Through its designs, the collection encourages wearers to reconnect with themselves – through speed, music, and cultural exploration – and to embrace fashion as a medium of personal liberation.FASHIONALLY Presentation: KOWLOON CITY BOYTheme: CLUB HEART BROKENKOWLOON CITY BOY’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “CLUB HEART BROKEN”, set in a retro locker room after the party ends, “explores the aftermath of love and longing”. The collection introduces a cast of characters: wild beasts in fur and leather, fragile “baby bears” in checks, and hopeless romantics with embroidered love letters and shattered hearts. Opposing them are sports boys in deconstructed jerseys and distressed gear – love as a contact sport.Through bold contrasts – fur with plaid, leather with embroidery, sportswear with shredded fabrics – KOWLOON CITY BOY turns heartbreak into a uniform and loneliness into a badge of survival.Websites- CENTRESTAGE: www.centrestage.com.hk- Hong Kong Young Fashion Designers’ Contest (YDC): www.fashionally.com/en/YDC- Background information, collection details and photos of the 10 YDC finalists are available for download at this link: YDC 2025Media enquiriesBest Crew Public Relations & MarketingDiana Tang Tel: (852) 3594 6443 Email: diana.tang@bestcrewpr.comReni Kwok Tel: (852) 3594 6443 Email: reni.kwok@bestcrewpr.comHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Sharon Ha Tel: (852) 2584 4575 Email: sharon.mt.ha@hktdc.orgKaty Wong Tel: (852) 2584 4524 Email: katy.ky.wong@hktdc.orgHKTDC Media Room: https://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enAbout YDCThe YDC aims to promote a new generation of local design talent, while creating opportunities to showcase their collections in front of global and local industry professionals at CENTRESTAGE.

Radisson Continues to Expand Scope of Gold Mineralization at O’Brien with Latest Drill Results ACN Newswire

Radisson Continues to Expand Scope of Gold Mineralization at O’Brien with Latest Drill Results

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 8, 2025) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQB: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from fifteen new drill holes completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. The fifteen holes represent step-outs below the existing geological model, east of the historic O'Brien Gold Mine (Figure 1) and are outside the scope of the recently completed Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA", see Radisson news release dated July 9, 2025). All holes intersected gold mineralization in characteristic quartz-sulphide-gold veins, and thirteen of the holes returned intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's existing mineral resources. These results continue to expand the scope of the Project's known gold mineralization. Highlights include:OB-24-363 intersected 8.41 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 2.2 metres, including 14.40 g/t Au over 1.2 metres and 9.07 g/t Au over 1.8 metres, including 12.10 g/t Au over 0.9 metres;OB-24-354 intersected 7.95 g/t Au over 2.30 metres, including 14.85 g/t Au over 1.0 metre;OB-24-364 intersected 12.75 g/t Au over 1.4 metres and 11.15 g/t Au over 1.50 metres;OB-24-361 intersected 3.50 g/t Au over 5.0 metres, including 8.96 g/t Au over 1.28 metres, and 15.10 g/t Au over 1.0 metre; andOB-25-371W1 intersected 5.66 g/t Au over 3.0 metres, including 9.97 g/t Au over 1.5 metres.Matt Manson, President & CEO, commented: "Our ongoing drilling at the O'Brien Project is focussed on "proof-of-concept" step-outs designed to test the full scope of the Project beyond previous drilling. We recently released the latest results from drilling beneath the historic O'Brien gold mine where we have been delineating multiple high-grade gold-bearing veins over a large area up to 500 metres below the base of the historic workings. Today's news release shows results from drill holes located to the east of the historic mine, and below the existing mineral resources. Of note, several of the holes represent deep step-outs below our "Trend #2", pushing the scope of known mineralization downwards by up to 300 metres in this important area. Our Exploration Target at O'Brien is between 3 and 4 million ounces of gold in 15 to 20 million tonnes at between 4.5 and 8.0 g/t Au. This is based on the proposition that O'Brien's mesothermal gold mineralization continues to an exploration horizon of 2 kilometres depth. Today's results continue to support this thesis. With the recent completion of our high-value, but "snap-shot", PEA, our focus is on aggressive exploration and resource growth. Four rigs are currently active at the Project and drilling continues."The reader is cautioned that the potential quantity and grade of an Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.Figure 1: Long Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/265432_bb2e887f64ce98f8_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Drill Holes OB-24-352 to OB-25-375DDHZone From (m) To (m) Core Length (m) Au g/t - Uncut Host LithologyOB-24-352Trend #2 521.0522.01.0013.10PON-S3 703.0704.51.503.73S1POB-24-353Trend #1 70.071.51.503.51PON-S3 160.9162.01.143.24S1P 191.0194.33.303.70TXIncluding192.0193.01.006.28TXOB-24-354Trend #0 232.0 234.3 2.3 7.9 S1P Including 232.0 233.0 1.0 14.9 S1P 302.7304.01.36.4V3-NOB-24-355Trend #3 432.4433.71.303.91S1P 466.8468.92.103.49V3-NOB-24-359W1Trend #3 429.3430.81.503.88V3-S 495.0496.01.0011.20S3POB-24-361Trend #3 195.5196.51.004.46PON-S3 572.4 573.4 1.00 15.10 V3-S 633.0 638.0 5.00 3.50 V3-S Including 633.0 634.3 1.28 8.96 S1P/POR-N OB-24-363Trend #2 194.5195.91.406.04PON-S3 910.0911.01.007.65PON-S3 1,199.7 1,201.9 2.20 8.41 V3-S Including 1,200.7 1,201.9 1.20 14.40 V3-S 1,231.3 1,233.1 1.80 9.07 POR-S Including 1,232.2 1,233.1 0.90 12.10 POR-S OB-25-363W1Trend #2 1,037.01,038.41.404.16V3-S 1,056.51,058.01.504.04V3-SOB-24-364Trend #1 388.0 389.4 1.40 12.75 V3-CEN 402.5404.01.506.26S1P 413.2 414.7 1.50 11.15 POR-N OB-25-366Trend #2 619.0620.01.003.71PON-S3OB-25-371Trend #2 1,402.01,404.52.503.99POR-SIncluding1,402.01,403.01.005.54POR-N/V3-NOB-25-371W1Trend #2 1,058.5 1,061.5 3.00 5.66 PON-S3 Including 1,058.5 1,060.0 1.50 9.97 PON-S3 1,210.91,214.03.103.21V3-SOB-25-375Trend #3 538.0539.51.507.38S3pNotes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective May 6, 2025 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cutoff, a US$2,000 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 40 g/t Au upper cap on composites. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 2 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed. Lithology Codes: PON-S3: Pontiac Sediments; V3-S, V3-N, V3-CEN: Basalt-South, North, Central; S1P, S3P: Conglomerate; POR-S, POR-N: Porphyry South, North; TX: Crystal Tuff; ZFLLC: Larder Lake-Cadillac Fault Zone. O'Brien Mineral Resource EstimatesThe Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") utilized in the recent O'Brien PEA comprises Indicated Mineral Resources of 0.58 million ounces (2.20 million tonnes at 8.2 g/t Au) and Inferred Mineral Resources of 0.93 million ounces (6.67 million tonnes at 4.4 g/t Au)1. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. This MRE, effective as of May 6, 2025, is based on the Project's March 2023 estimate re-blocked with an updated cut-off yielding more ounces and more tonnes at a lower average grade. As such, it is based on drilling completed only to the end of 2022. By the end of the current fully funded 50-60,000 drill program, an additional 90-100,000 metres of drilling will be available for an updated estimate, including a significant meterage of drilling outside the scope of the current MRE and the recent PEA mine design.Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with near-vertical, high-grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Step-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the scope of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. A particular focus has been the delineation of multiple high-grade veins beneath the historic mine workings of the O'Brien mine with a series of wedge-extensions drilled from the pilot hole OB-24-337, which intersected 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre within a mineralized interval that averaged 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth. Assay results from a total of 7 wedges from OB-24-337 have now been reported and up to six gold-bearing veins have been delineated over an area of approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 250 metres (vertical). These veins appear to correspond to veins mapped at the base of the historic mine at 1,000 metres deep, approximately 300 to 500 metres above the new intercepts (see Radisson news release dated July 16, 2025). Current drilling in this area is focussed on infilling with pilot holes and wedge extensions both above and below the OB-24-337 pattern of branches to test the full continuity of mineralisation from the historic mine down to 2 kilometres depth.Step-out drilling with wedge extensions has also confirmed high-grade mineralization 170 metres below the base of the existing mineral resources at Trend #1, including pilot hole OB-24-324 which intersected 27.61 g/t Au over 6.0 metres (see Radisson news release dated October 30, 2024).Today's results include pilot holes and wedges with high-grade mineralization located up to 300 metres below previous drill intercepts at Trend #2 and showing good continuity with the mineral resource model above (Figure 2). These drill holes include OB-24-363 which intersected 8.41 g/t Au over 2.20 metres including 14.40 g/t Au over 1.20 metres and 9.07 g/t Au over 1.80 metres including 12.10 g/t Au over 0.90 metres. Three separate drill-holes were located at or close to the base of the existing mineral resources at Trend #3, including OB-24-361 which intersected 15.10 g/t Au over 1 metre and 3.50 g/t Au over 5.0 metres including 8.96 g/t Au over 1.28 metres. These new drill intercepts extend the scope of known gold mineralization at O'Brien, which remains open to depth along the full 5 kilometre length of the property.QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d'Or, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 10 g/t Au were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.Qualified Persons Disclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101.

European Dairy Exports from Ireland to Asia Top EUR440 Million in 2024 as Ireland Launches EUR3.2 Million EU Campaign to Strengthen Partnerships

Grass-fed provenance and advanced R&D connect European dairy from Ireland with Singapore’s food innovation ecosystem and regional HQsSINGAPORE, Sept 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Building on the success of the European dairy exports from Ireland to Asia, which exceeded €440 million in 2024, the European Union and Ireland today launched the “European Dairy – Ireland, Where Nature Meets Science” campaign. This €3.2 million co-funded investment aims to strengthen Asia’s nutrition pipeline and foster long-term trade partnerships. Positioning Singapore as the regional hub, the three-year project running until 2028 will focus on building supply resilience, and driving new partnerships across Singapore, China, and Vietnam. Singapore stands at the heart of Asia’s food innovation and trade ecosystem. Its world-class safety standards, research infrastructure, and regional influence empower European dairy to meet Asia’s demand for sustainable, traceable, and science-driven ingredients in a volatile global market. Her Excellency Sarah McGrath, Ambassador of Ireland to Singapore, said,“This campaign is a symbol of Ireland’s commitment to strengthening the bridges between Europe and Asia. By launching in Singapore, we are reinforcing not only a vital trade relationship but also our shared pursuit of innovation, research, and sustainable development in food. Ireland’s expertise in science-driven agriculture, combined with Asia’s leadership in food innovation, creates an opportunity to deepen trust and collaboration across sectors. This initiative reflects the spirit of partnership that will define the future of our cultural and economic ties.”Driving this mission is Bord Bia - the Irish Food Board, which champions the national and international growth of Ireland’s food, drink, and horticulture sectors. With a strategic network of offices across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the United States, and Asia (Singapore, Shanghai, Tokyo), Bord Bia connects European producers from Ireland with priority partners in these key markets, strengthening trade links and fostering long-term collaboration.Lisa Phelan, Director for Southeast Asia and Australia and New Zealand at Bord Bia, explained, "Ireland’s grass-fed, sustainably produced dairy, supported by Origin Green, our pioneering national food and drink sustainability programme, brings provenance, quality, and science-driven innovation - but we cannot achieve impact alone. By collaborating with Singapore, which combines technological expertise, research capabilities, and regional market knowledge, we can secure Asia’s nutrition future with dairy that is trusted, traceable, and future-ready. This campaign exemplifies how Europe’s strengths and Asia’s innovation ecosystem can come together to drive sustainable, long-term food solutions."Europe’s Flagship for Sustainable Dairy - IrelandIn Europe, Ireland leads in sustainable dairy production, combining grass-fed farming at scale with advanced science and research and development. Key credentials include:90% of herds are grass-fed, unique globally at this scale.95% of processors are enrolled in Origin Green, the independently verified sustainability programme.Ranked second globally in the Food Security Index, underscoring safety and reliability.Home to the Dairy Processing Technology Centre, developing functional ingredients for infant formula, medical nutrition, and food innovation.The campaign aims to: Reaffirm European Dairy’s reputation as high-quality dairy suppliers 2.

福壽園2025年上半年以品牌化、科技化、文化創新夯實韌性根基

香港,2025年9月8日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近日,福壽園(1448.HK)公佈了2025年上半年之中期業績。在2025年,雖然外部環境仍然複雜嚴峻,然而伴隨人口老齡化進程加快,生命服務需求穩步提升,行業供需關係趨於平衡。在機遇與挑戰並存之時期,作為中國領先的殯葬及生命科技服務提供者,福壽園持續優化管理體系,通過精益化管理提升整體運營效率,靈活應對外部環境變化與挑戰。同時,福壽園以品牌化、科技化、文化創新夯實韌性根基,全方位推進企業戰略升級。主營業務韌性凸顯,策略性出清助力輕裝上陣2025年上半年,面對宏觀環境與行業層面的不斷變化,集團總收益實現人民幣6.11億元,歸母淨虧損人民幣2.61億元,這主要是由於本期間若干非經常性損益事項產生的虧損所致。集團根據了業務經營環境和經營評估,主動對"一次性"影響因素進行策略性出清,有效減輕歷史負擔,本期間對若干個墓園專案和其他長期資產總共計提了減值準備人民幣2.17億元,主要涉及4個公墓項目的商譽和其他長期資產等,為未來業務高品質增長奠定堅實基礎。由於受整體宏觀經濟環境,以及銷售收入繳納增值稅等的影響,這些項目實際運營效率和未來現金流預期在短期內未能達到原評估時的水準。因此基於會計準則和謹慎性原則,計提了相應的資產減值準備。基於當前各項目的梳理,管理層認為再次發生類似減值的風險相對較低,同時也會持續密切關注市場變化,確保財務報表公允地反映資產的財務狀況。而扣除非經常性損益後歸母淨利潤達人民幣1.98 億元,充分體現了企業在複雜環境下的經營韌性與戰略定力。股東回報持續領先,高派息政策彰顯信心為答謝股東一直以來的支持,福壽園董事會宣佈向股東派發2025年中期股息每股7港仙,扣除非經常性損益事項後的中期派息率達75.5%,充分體現了集團對股東回報的高度重視。公司堅持連續第三年實施高派息,展現出穩健的財務實力和對未來經營的堅定信心。現金儲備充裕,現金流健康穩健截至報告期末,集團資產負債率保持在較低水準僅為 0.6%,現金儲備達人民幣23.2億元,資金實力雄厚。商譽減值計提僅影響報表利潤,因此該事項未造成實際現金流出,經營性現金流始終保持健康水準,為企業可持續發展和戰略推進提供堅實保障。服務升級,文化創新2025 年上半年,福壽園積極回應國家在民生服務與生態文明建設領域的號召,以長遠視野洞察行業趨勢,始終將產品創新作為核心驅動力,持續優化多元業務戰略佈局。通過服務升級、科技賦能與文化融合,在多方面精准發力,不斷探索並滿足客戶日益個性化的需求,尤其是精神層面,全面提升了產品與服務競爭力,為行業樹立高標準、高品質的新發展標杆。品牌化戰略深入推進,IP跨界賦能情感價值2025年上半年,福壽園品牌化建設邁出關鍵一步,通過打造具有高辨識度和情感承載力的品牌IP,顯著拓展品牌影響力。集團成功將品牌形象推向更廣闊公眾視野,不僅登陸南京東路、淮海中路等城市核心地標巨型螢幕,更與春秋航空等跨行業夥伴達成深度宣傳合作,實現品牌破圈傳播。在資訊高度碎片化的市場環境中,福壽園以獨特的IP敘事構建差異化的品牌認知,持續積累用戶情感資產和品牌資產,進一步深化與消費者之間的精神共鳴和價值聯結。數位化轉型行業領先,科技賦能全場景服務作為殯葬與生命科技服務領域的創新引領者,福壽園持續推進數位化轉型,不斷提升服務品質,積極擁抱現代科技的發展與應用,構建以"數位禮廳、AI追思、福壽線上、紀念家元"為核心的數位化生命服務體系,全面覆蓋使用者多元場景需求。通過科技手段有效落實"記號做美、記載做厚、紀念做長"的3JI理念,提升服務體驗與運營效率。另據福壽園管理層在公司業績會上表明,截至今年8月底,"福壽園服務線上"平台註冊使用者數及線上下單量同比明顯上升,這兩組資料的變動趨勢也彰顯了福壽園的數位化轉型取得了階段性成果。全力推動園區文化賦能品牌建設集團深入挖掘並傳播人文歷史與文化先賢資源,通過短視頻、直播等新媒體方式,增強文化影響力和社會連接效能。福壽園致力於打造融合海派文化、紅色情感的交流平臺,實現"與記憶共情、與歷史共鳴、與時代共振",不斷彙聚社會資源與各界力量,夯實企業文化建設與品牌厚度。持續推進數位化轉型 立足於高品質的內生發展展望未來,福壽園將持續提升公司治理水準,堅定推進可持續發展戰略,將環境保護理念深植於經營實踐,推動低碳、低能耗及高效運營,促進生態與人文景觀的和諧共生。同時,福壽園將繼續承擔企業、社會、行業、歷史及公眾責任,整合公益資源,引導社會正視生死、珍重生命,為生命旅途點亮公益微光。福壽園將秉承以人為本的服務理念,堅持「尊重生命、溫暖人心」的宗旨,通過「創新、責任、共贏」的企業精神,持續推進數位化轉型,提升服務效率與品質,滿足客戶日益增長的需求,致力於為客戶提供更加貼心、專業及個性化的生命服務。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

The public count for the events exceeded 19,000 visits, successfully assisting exhibitors in expanding their customer base and helping to promote the development of the creative sector.Sophia Chong, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “Over the past decade, CENTRESTAGE has become an essential trade and exchange platform for local, Asian and international fashion brands. This year’s fair set records in terms of scale and internationalisation, bringing together a wide range of globally renowned design brands which participated for the first time, including Saul Nash from the UK, HENRIK VIBSKOV from Denmark and THE NERDYS from Japan.

Designer Imellda Ho said this year marks her first participation at CENTRESTAGE under her own brand name, and that the fair reflected the HKTDC's international vision. “The team even anticipated needs I hadn't considered.

Ms Ho added that although the custom headwear market is relatively small, the fair offers opportunities for brands to expand into overseas markets.

開放對話專家在俄羅斯國家中心濱海分部討論新世界貿易和經濟互聯互通架構 ACN Newswire

開放對話專家在俄羅斯國家中心濱海分部討論新世界貿易和經濟互聯互通架構

Primorsky Krai, Russia ,2025年9月6日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 9月5日,由俄羅斯國家中心組織的"互聯互通投資"主題開放對話專家會議在濱海邊疆區俄羅斯國家中心分部舉行。來自世界各國的專家們參與了"新現實中貿易和互聯互通的轉型"討論。此次會議是2025年4月在俄羅斯國家中心舉行的開放對話"世界的未來:全球增長新平臺"的延續。開放對話會議主持人、俄羅斯聯邦總統辦公廳副主任馬克沁-奧列什金在開場討論中指出,金磚國家和全球南方國家如今在世界貿易新解決方案中發揮著主導作用。這位副主任表示,新的大趨勢是可持續且不可逆轉的。舊架構中的機構正變得無關緊要。"我們確實已經擁有一切:新的全球經濟現實和技術,以形成新的世界貿易架構。它不是取代舊機構和貿易路線,而是補充它們。這是一個重要的觀察,因為我們幾天前剛從中國返回,那裡舉行了具有里程碑意義的上合組織峰會。這次活動的主基調,實際上是唯一的基調,就是積極發展的基調,"馬克沁-奧列什金強調說。TALAP應用研究中心首席經濟學家拉希姆-奧沙克巴耶夫認為,對俄羅斯施加的巨大制裁刺激了創新,並培養了抗脆弱性這一重要品質。"結果是顯而易見的,它不僅讓外部觀察者驚訝,甚至讓俄羅斯經濟學家也感到驚訝--俄羅斯經濟通過經濟政策、公共管理和私人倡議的結合,能夠展現出如此強大的韌性,"拉希姆-奧沙克巴耶夫說。俄羅斯聯邦總統辦公廳副主任馬克沁-奧列什金也注意到了制裁和貿易限制的積極影響。"我認為,對制裁和貿易限制這種積極有利影響的認識,是中國和印度等大型經濟體現在開始感受到的。我認為,隨著時間的推移,全球多數國家中的每個國家都會要求對其實施制裁,看到這個過程帶來的積極效果,"他說。北京恒策投資諮詢有限公司(中國)創始人簡連指出了另一個重要趨勢--向本國貨幣的轉變。"存在著巨大的人力資源和勞動力市場。我們中國計畫從衣索比亞吸引勞動力。我們現在正與俄羅斯合作,基於中國在技術發展方面的成就,努力實施這個專案。我們必須用盧布進行所有結算,這一點尤為重要,因為迄今為止,美元一直是衣索比亞的主要儲備貨幣。現在正在向本國貨幣過渡。因此,我們正在創造提高經濟效率的新條件,並通過和平手段實現這一目標,"簡連說。俄羅斯國家原子能公司物流總經理、遠東航運公司總經理彼得-伊萬諾夫認為,船隊在互聯互通問題中發揮著主導作用。"今天,談到國際貿易的發展和確保互聯互通,我們明白,正如彼得大帝所說,'誰擁有艦隊,誰就有兩隻手'。當許多控制著80%國際貿易的國際公司和聯盟離開俄羅斯,運費增長了10倍時,我們感受到了這一點,這打擊了互聯互通和國際貿易。因此,重視自己的船隊是國際貿易穩定的基礎。那些重視這一點的國家將始終有能力確保進出口溝通。我們現在也在走這條路,"彼得-伊萬諾夫指出。Social LinksTelegram: https://t.me/gowithRussiaVK: https://vk.com/gowithrussiaok.ru: https://ok.ru/gowithrussiaDZen: https://dzen.ru/gowithrussiaMedia contactBrand: Russia National CenterContact: Media teamEmail: pressa@russia.ruWebsite: https://russia.ru/ Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

During the reporting period, the 4ParadigmSage AI Platform business generated revenue of RMB2,149 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 71.9%, accounting for approximately 81.8% of the Company's total revenue.In terms of expenses, during the reporting period, the total ratio of the Company’s three major expenses to revenue decreased from 58.2% to 44.5%, of which the scale effect of R&D investment has been fully demonstrated this year, with total R&D expenses increasing by approximately 5.1% compared to last year, while the expense ratio decreased by 11.5pct year-on-year to 34.0%. At the same time, the Company has always paid close attention to healthy cash flow and business quality. As of June 30, 2025, the balance of accounts receivable decreased significantly from RMB3,086 million at the end of last year to RMB1,967 million.“AI Agent + World Model” has been Deployed Comprehensively, Achieving Significant Commercial SuccessDuring the Reporting Period, Fourth Paradigm deepened the implementation and application of its “AI agent + World Model” strategy, effectively capturing the AI transformation demands of enterprise clients in high-value scenarios. The Company provides enterprises with AI solutions (enterprise-grade AIOS) that are deeply integrated with their business and engineered for implementation, rather than standalone tools. The value proposition of “AI agent + World Model” achieved comprehensive adoption among enterprise clients. The number of lighthouse users reached 90, an increase of four compared to the same period last year, and the average revenue per lighthouse user was RMB17.98 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 56.6%. This growth trajectory in average revenue per user indicates that the 4ParadigmSage AI Platform is rapidly becoming the AI productivity infrastructure for enterprises.According to a recent market share report released by IDC, Fourth Paradigm has ranked first in China’s machine learning platform market share for seven consecutive years in 2024.Continuously Exploring New Businesses, “AI+” Positioning for Future GrowthWhile focusing on the application of AI in traditional strong industries, Fourth Paradigm has never stopped exploring new areas of “AI+”. In response to “AI + Stablecoin”, the Company has successively introduced “AI + Stablecoin Risk Control & Compliance Solution” and “Stablecoin Underlying Asset Management Solution,” actively cooperating with leading securities firms to strategically expand into the stablecoin ecosystem. Committed to “AI + Energy Storage”, Fourth Paradigm focuses on power trading strategy optimization and smart power plant operation and maintenance, utilizing accumulated data models in the energy industry to solve industry pain points. In the future, Fourth Paradigm will continue to keenly capture cutting-edge trends, explore more possibilities for “AI+”, uncover new commercial value and application scenarios, open up new growth curves for the Company, lead the trend of artificial intelligence transformation, and help customers occupy a more advantageous strategic position in global AI industry competition.Ecological Construction and Edge-side Extension: “Phancy” Consumer Electronics Business Shows Strong Potential and is Poised for Promising Growth“Phancy” consumer electronics business, which was officially launched this year, has also performed well. As an important exploration by Fourth Paradigm to extend its AI capabilities to the end-user side, it has already launched and started selling a number of consumer electronics products, including smart watches, smart glasses, and smart earphones, in collaboration with partners in the first half of the year. In the future, it will expand into areas such as smart toys, smart wearable accessories, and embodied intelligence. Phancy is committed to building a comprehensive product ecosystem that brings AI capabilities into every household and benefits every individual.More importantly, Fourth Paradigm is gradually building a brand-new smart terminal device ecosystem. In May, 2025, the Company announced a deep cooperation with HarmonyOS and HiSilicon, integrating the Company’s AI model capabilities on the edge side with HiSilicon’s high-performance, low-power chips to jointly create an integrated smart hardware solution combining “AI + Operating System + Core Chips.” This collaboration injects strong innovative momentum into HarmonyOS’s ecosystem and empowers the new era of intelligent connectivity. At the same time, Fourth Paradigm entered into strategic partnerships with Bluetrum, Jieli Technology and Beken Corporation to deeply integrate leading AI communication chips with algorithms, providing end-to-end AI solutions for more consumer electronics products in the future and strengthening the Company’s underlying technological competitiveness.In terms of Strategic Outlooks, Dr. Dai Wenyuan, Chairman of the Board, Executive Director, Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of Beijing Fourth Paradigm Technology Co., Ltd. said, “In the first half of 2025, we have solidified our market leadership through superior products and technological capabilities, while proactively pursuing open ecosystem partnerships to lay the groundwork for future growth. In the future, we will continue to adhere to our core strategy of “technology-driven, customer value, and ecosystem win-win,” building AI productivity infrastructure that drives comprehensive corporate profitability, aiming to become a core driver of the AI era and lead the way toward the early arrival of the AGI era. We firmly believe that through continuous investment in technological innovation, Fourth Paradigm will remain at the forefront of the exploration and commercial implementation of AI technology.” Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

CBL International Reports 1H 2025 Results Highlighting Strong Biofuel Growth, Reduced Net Loss, and Improved Gross Profit Margin ACN Newswire

CBL International Reports 1H 2025 Results Highlighting Strong Biofuel Growth, Reduced Net Loss, and Improved Gross Profit Margin

KualaLumpur, Sep 5, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – CBL International Limited (NASDAQ: BANL) (the “Company” or “CBL”), the listing vehicle of the Banle Group (“Banle” or “the Group”), a leading marine fuel logistics company in the Asia-Pacific region, has announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 on September 2, 2025.1H 2025 Financial and Operational Highlights- Revenue of $265.17 million, reflecting resilient performance in a volatile macro environment.- Sales volume increased by 9.8%, driven by network expansion, new customer acquisitions, and expansion toward the non-container liner and biofuel segments.- Gross profit margin increased to 1.02% in 1H2025, reflecting the Company's strategic approach to maintaining profitability while growing market share in a competitive environment.- Net loss narrowed by 38.8% year-on-year to $992,000, demonstrating improved cost control and operating efficiency.- Biofuel sales surged 154.7%, driven by accelerating adoption of sustainable marine fuels under IMO 2023 and EU FuelEU Maritime regulations.- Global network expanded to 65 ports, strengthening CBL’s role as a global one-stop marine fuel logistics platform.- Cash balance of $5.43 million and $50 million committed banking facilities provide strong financial flexibility to support growth and shareholder value.Financial Performance OverviewThe Company reported consolidated revenue of $265.17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing a 4.4% decrease from $277.23 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in the marine fuel price which was partially offset by the increase in the sales volume. The increase in sales volume was mainly driven by network expansion, new customer acquisitions, and expansion toward the non-container liner and biofuel segments. Furthermore, the Group’s network demonstrated the Group’s resilience to geopolitical impacts on the marine industry.Gross profit remained stable at $2.71 million with an increase in sales volume to cope with the challenging competition in the market, while gross profit margin increased from 0.98% in 1H2024 to 1.02% in 1H2025. This margin expansion reflects the Company's strategic approach to maintaining profitability while growing market share in a competitive environment.The Company reported a net loss of $992,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing a significant 38.8% improvement compared to a net loss of $1.62 million in the same period of 2024, primarily driven by disciplined cost management and operational efficiency initiatives that reduced operating expenses by 17% to $3.42 million from $4.12 million in 1H 2024.Cash and cash equivalents stood at $5.43 million as of June 30, 2025, supported by improved working capital management and expanded banking facilities of $50.0 million, providing enhanced financial flexibility for growth initiatives.Strategic Expansion and Operational ExcellenceCBL's operational expansion continued to be a key growth driver, with the Company's global service network reaching 65 ports by June 30, 2025, strategically positioned across Asia Pacific, Europe, Africa, and Central America. This expansion enabled CBL to effectively navigate geopolitical disruptions, particularly in the Red Sea region and the Middle East, along with the changes in global trade patterns due to the impact of U.S. tariffs policy, by capturing increased demand along alternative intra-Asia and Euro-Asia trade routes.Customer diversification reached a significant milestone, with non-container liner sales accounting for 36.9% of revenue, while sales concentration among the top five customers declined to 60.4% from 66.7% in 1H 2024. The Company continues to service nine of the world's top 12 container shipping lines, which contributed nearly 60% of global container fleet capacity.Additionally, biofuel sales demand was fueled by stricter environmental regulations, including IMO’s Carbon Intensity Indicator and the EU’s FuelEU Maritime, and surged 154.7% year-on-year in 1H2025, with volumes up 189.5%, reinforcing CBL’s forerunning position in sustainable marine fuels. The Company stayed ahead of this trend with the successful rollout of its B24 biofuel in China, Hong Kong, and Malaysia, followed by a 2025 launch in Singapore. The B24 blend, comprising 76% conventional fuel and 24% UCOME, delivers a 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional marine fuels.Stricter Environmental Regulations and Industry ReshapingDespite the unpredictability of U.S. trade policy, oil prices, and geopolitical risks, CBL remains cautiously optimistic about the outlook as further uncertainties could impact our results of operations for a particular period. Regarding the ongoing instability in the Red Sea, where vessels were rerouted via the Cape of Good Hope, CBL targeted the increased demand from rerouted vessels, ensuring that our strategic supply chain could meet these demands, allowing us to maintain the stability of our offerings and capitalize on the opportunities created by these disruptions.The adoption of biofuels and other sustainable marine fuels is accelerating as stricter environmental regulations reshape the shipping industry. Consultant agency Exactitude Consultancy is projecting a 50.4% CAGR for the green marine fuel market from 2023 to 2030, as demand for biofuels is expected to climb sharply. Leveraging its early move into sustainable fuels, CBL is expanding its biofuel supply chain and exploring LNG and methanol, positioning itself to capture growth while helping customers meet tightening decarbonization targets across Asia Pacific, Europe, and other key markets.Management Commentary and Future OutlookDr. Teck Lim Chia, Chairman and CEO of CBL International Limited, stated, “Our first half results highlight significant strategic progress.

CBL International發佈2025年中期業績 生物燃料增長強勁 淨虧損減少及毛利率上升

吉隆坡,2025年9月5日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 萬利集團 (以下簡稱 「 萬利 」 或 「 集團 」 )之上市實體 CBL International Limited(以下簡稱 「 公司 」 或 「 CBL」 )(美國納斯達克交易所代碼: BANL),亞太地區知名燃油供應服務商,已於2025年9月2日公布截至2025年6月30日未經審計中期業績。2025年中期財務及運營亮點- 收入 為 2.6517億美元,反映公司在多變的宏觀環境下仍維持穩健表現。- 銷售量增長9.8%,主要受網絡擴充、獲取新客戶及擴展至非集裝箱班輪及生物燃料分部所推動。- 毛利率於2025年上半年增加至1.02%,反映公司在競爭激烈的環境下維持盈利能力及擴大市場份額的策略見效。- 淨虧損按年減少38.8% 至99.2萬美元,顯示成本控制及運營效率均有所改善。- 生物燃料銷售飆升154.7%,主要由按照國際海事組織(IMO) 2023及歐盟海運燃料條例(EU FuelEU Maritime regulations)加快採納可持續船用燃料所推動。- 全球網絡擴展至65個港口,加強CBL作為全球一站式船用燃料物流平台的地位。- 現金結餘 543萬美元及5,000萬美元承諾的銀行授信額度提供強大財務靈活性,支持增長及創造股東價值。財務表現概覽截至2025年6月30日止六個月,公司報告合併收入為2.6517億美元,較2024年同期的2.7723億美元下降4.4%,主要由於船用燃料價格下跌,但部分被銷售量的增加所抵消,而銷售量增加主要歸因於網絡擴充、贏得新客戶以及擴展至非集裝箱班輪及生物燃料分部。公司強大的網絡亦顯示,公司能有效抵禦海事行業所面對的地緣政治影響。毛利保持穩定,為271萬美元,銷售量亦增加以應對市場競爭。毛利率由2024年上半年的0.98%改善至2025年上半年的1.02%。利潤率增長反映公司在競爭激烈的環境下維持盈利能力及擴大市場份額的策略見效。公司於截至2025年6月30日止六個月錄得淨虧損99.2萬美元,較2024年同期的淨虧損162萬美元大幅改善38.8%,主要受惠於公司實施嚴謹的成本管理及運營效率提升措施,促使運營費用由2024年上半年的412萬美元減少17%至342萬美元。截至2025年6月30日,隨著營運資金管理有所改善,加上銀行信貸額增加至5,000萬美元,現金及現金等價物達到543萬美元,為公司的增長計劃提供更大財務靈活性。戰略擴張及卓越運營業務擴充仍然是CBL的主要增長動力。截至2025年6月30日,公司的全球服務網絡已覆蓋65個港口,遍佈亞太區、歐洲、非洲和中美洲。通過把握亞洲區內及歐亞之間替代的貿易航線上增加的需求,此次擴張使CBL能夠有效應對地緣政治動盪,尤其是在紅海及中東地區,以及由美國關稅政策影響引發的全球貿易格局變化。客戶多元化發展達到重要里程碑,非集裝箱班輪銷售佔收入的36.9%,五大客戶的銷售集中度由2024年上半年的66.7%下降至60.4%。公司持續為全球12大集裝箱班輪公司的其中9家公司提供服務,佔全球集裝箱班輪船隊運力近60%。此外,受國際海事組織的船舶碳強度指標以及歐盟海運燃料倡議等更嚴格的環境法規所推動,生物燃料銷售需求於2025年上半年按年激增154.7%,銷量上升189.5%,鞏固了CBL在可持續船用燃料方面的領先地位。公司持續引領這一趨勢,在中國、香港和馬來西亞成功推出B24生物燃料後,又於2025年在新加坡成功推出。B24生物燃料包含76%的常規燃料和24%的食用油甲酯,與傳統的船用燃料相比,可減少20%的溫室氣體排放。更為嚴格的環境法規及行業重塑儘管美國貿易政策、油價及地緣政治風險難以預測,但CBL仍對前景保持審慎樂觀,儘管更多不確定因素可能會影響公司某一特定時期的經營業績。鑒於紅海局勢持續不穩定,船隻繞道好望角,CBL瞄準改航船隻增加的需求,確保公司的戰略供應鏈能夠滿足這些需求,以維持產品的穩定性並把握航線中斷所帶來的機遇。隨著更為嚴格的環境法規重塑航運業,行業正在加快採用生物燃料及其他可持續船用燃料。諮詢機構Exactitude Consultancy預測,由於對生物燃料的需求預計將急劇攀升,綠色船用燃料市場在2023年至2030年期間的複合年增長率達50.4%。憑藉早期進入可持續燃料領域的優勢,CBL正擴大其生物燃料供應鏈,探索液化天然氣和甲醇的發展機遇,致力實現增長,同時在亞太、歐洲及其他主要市場幫助客戶達成的日益嚴苛的脫碳目標。管理層總結及未來展望公司董事長兼首席執行官謝威廉博士表示:「我們上半年的業績突顯了集團的重大戰略進展。儘管宏觀環境充滿挑戰,但我們仍成功擴展全球網絡,以三位數的增長態勢加速生物燃料轉型,使淨虧損減少近40%。這些成就突顯了我們的抵禦能力、營運紀律及對長期增長的信心。隨著法規收緊以及客戶對可持續船用燃料的需求加速增長,CBL作為市場先行者,憑藉ISCC認證和供應合作夥伴關係,具備獨特的優勢引領市場轉型。我們將繼續專注執行策略,以實現盈利增長及長期股東價值。」展望展望未來,CBL預期將:- 以監管支持及客戶采納作為推動,進一步擴大其生物燃料供應鏈,探索液化天然氣和甲醇的發展機會。- 繼續擴大港口覆蓋範圍以加強全球互聯互通。- 維持嚴謹的成本管理,並利用財務靈活性,投資於可持續燃料及潛在股東回報計劃。網絡直播詳情CBL International Limited(納斯達克:BANL)誠邀您參加線上發布會,就公司截至2025年6月30日六個月財務業績作出討論。活動:2025年中期業績線上發布會日期和時間:2025年9月15日(星期一)美國東部時間晚上10:00-11:00 2025年9月16日(星期二)馬來西亞時間/香港時間上午10:00-11:00網路直播詳情:線上發布會可通過以下鏈接觀看直播。網絡廣播鏈接:https://webcast.roadshowchina.cn/k8WDrn關於萬利集團萬利集團成立於 2015 年,以CBL International Limited(納斯達克:BANL)在納斯達克股票市場上市。我們致力於為客戶提供一站式燃油供應服務,被業內稱為燃油供應服務商。我們主要通過當地實體供貨商為船舶提供燃油加注服務,遍布比利時、中國、香港、印度、日本、韓國、馬來西亞、毛里裘斯、巴拿馬、菲律賓、新加坡、台灣、泰國、土耳其和越南,共覆蓋65個港口。集團積極推動可持續燃料,並已取得ISCC EU和ISCC Plus認證。如欲瞭解更多信息,請到集團網站 https://www.banle-intl.com 瀏覽。前瞻性聲明本公吿中的某些陳述並非歷史事實,而是前瞻性陳述。前瞻性陳述一般使用「相信」、「可能」、「可以」、「將要」、「估計」、「繼續」、「預期」、「打算」、「期望」、「計劃」、「應該」、「將會」、「規劃」、「未來」、「展望」、「潛力」、「預測」等類似詞語來預測或表達未來事件或趨勢或不屬於歷史事項的陳述,但不使用這些詞語並不意味著陳述並非前瞻性。這些前瞻性陳述包括但不限於對其他績效指標的估計和預測,以及對市場機會的預測。這些信息涉及已知和未知的風險和不確定性,並基於各種假設(無論本新聞稿中是否指明)以及BANL管理層的當前預期,而非對實際業績的預測。這些前瞻性陳述僅供幫助目的,不得被任何投資者作為且不得被依賴為對事實或可能性的擔保、保證、預測或確鑿陳述。實際事件和情況難以或不可能預測,也會與假設不同。許多實際事件和情況不在BANL的控制範圍內。一些重要因素可能導致實際結果與任何前瞻性陳述存在實質性差異,包括國內外商業、燃料價格及關稅、市場、金融、政治、法律環境、地緣政治及其他導致燃料價格發生重大變化的事件的影響。公司沒有義務公開更新或修改任何前瞻性陳述來反映隨後發生的事件或情況或預期的變化,法律可能要求者除外。儘管公司認為該等前瞻性陳述中表達的預期合理,但不能向您保證此類預期最終正確無誤。公司提醒投資者實際結果可能與預期結果存在重大差異,並鼓勵投資者細閱公司的註冊聲明和向SEC提交的其他文件所載可能影響其未來業績的其他因素。如需更多資訊,請聯繫:CBL International Limited電郵:investors@banle-intl.com縱橫財經公關顧問有限公司鄭松雪 電話:(852) 2864 4857歐陽蔚雯 電話:(852) 2114 4913電郵:sprg_cbl@sprg.com.hk Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
