HK$10.1m profit over the last 12 months

• On a trailing 12 month basis, Wuxi Life International Holdings Group booked HK$94.6 million in revenue and HK$10.1 million in net income (excluding extra items), which lines up with basic EPS of HK$0.0251.
• What stands out for a bullish view is that this HK$10.1 million profit and HK$0.0251 EPS arrive after earlier trailing periods showed losses, while earnings over five years are described as growing at 51.9% per year. However, the data set still highlights past stretches of negative EPS such as HK$0.0423 loss per share in 1H 2024, so the move into profit is supported by the numbers but also comes after a period of volatility.
  • For example, net income excluding extra items shifted from a HK$5.4 million loss in 1H 2024 to HK$10.1 million profit on a trailing 12 month view. This heavily supports the bullish case that the business is now generating positive earnings rather than one off gains.
  • At the same time, interim net income of HK$1.8 million for 1H 2025 is smaller than the trailing 12 month total. This reminds bullish investors that a lot of the current profit story is coming from the broader period rather than just the latest half year.

Rich 18.8x P/S multiple

• The shares trade on a P/S of 18.8x, which is much higher than the Hong Kong software industry average of 2.4x and the peer average of 3.4x.
• Critics looking at a cautious or bearish angle point to this rich sales multiple alongside recent shareholder dilution, and the numbers give them some concrete talking points rather than just opinion.
  • The gap between 18.8x and the 2.4x industry average is very large in multiple terms. Anyone taking the bearish side can argue that the market is already assigning a premium despite past periods of losses such as the HK$4.6 million loss over the trailing 12 months to 1H 2025.
  • Because dilution in the past year means existing holders now share those earnings across a larger share base, bears can argue that the combination of a high P/S and a growing share count makes the HK$3.89 price more demanding than peers that sit closer to 3.4x sales.

Revenue more than doubled since 1H 2023

• First half revenue went from HK$13.3 million in 2023 to HK$28.1 million in 2025, while trailing 12 month revenue sits at HK$94.6 million, showing that more recent periods are being supported by a higher top line than two years ago.
• Supporters who take a more positive angle often argue that higher revenue underpins the move to profit, and the figures here give that view some substance but also add nuance because profitability has not been smooth.
  • Revenue of HK$39.9 million in 1H 2024 and HK$56.6 million in the trailing period to 1H 2025 came alongside losses of HK$5.4 million and HK$4.6 million respectively, which challenges any bullish claim that higher sales automatically translate into stable profits.
  • Only when looking at the most recent trailing 12 months, with HK$94.6 million revenue and HK$10.1 million profit, does the margin picture look much healthier, so investors who like the bullish story may still want to pay attention to how future halves compare with that benchmark.
