Listen "9R Limited 1H 2026 Profit Vanishes"
Episode Synopsis
9R Limited experienced a shift from profit to a financial loss for the current six-month period, despite recording an increase in revenue. This revenue growth was primarily driven by the Group's core lifestyle retail business and promising initial contributions from the RedPay electronic payment service. However, expenses related to promotional campaigns and operational costs increased. The Group is focused on mitigating anticipated impacts from rising input costs, particularly due to new excise duties on alcoholic beverages, while also navigating challenges in its supply chain segment. The strategy involves expanding new concepts like the compact karaoke booth, GreenBox Cube, and enhancing the digital payment platform.
• The Group recorded a comprehensive shift in its financial outcome for the period, moving from a profit to a loss compared to the previous year
• Management is intensifying promotional efforts for its electronic payment services and celebrating a key anniversary, leading to higher distribution expenses
• New government duties on alcoholic beverages and tobacco products are expected to exert upward pressure on operating costs and may affect consumer spending at retail outlets
