Mr. Guofu Ye, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of MINISO, commented, "December Quarter closed out a year of our solid execution in 2025. Both quarterly and annual revenue have achieved new heights and crossed the milestones of RMB6 billion and RMB20 billion, respectively. In December Quarter, our strategic markets such as Chinese Mainland and the U.S. market were strong outperformers. We were thrilled to see strong momentum in MINISO Chinese Mainland in December Quarter, with highest year-over-year revenue growth of 25.0% over the past 8 quarters, powered by its robust SSSG of mid-teens level. Despite tariff headwinds, MINISO brand in the U.S market reached a robust low-twenties SSSG this quarter. This success reflects our global expertise and strategic foresight, as well as the structural resilience built through an agile supply chain. At the same time, it strongly validates our strategic direction and execution, further bolstering our confidence in our growth.

We remain steadfast in our commitment to high-quality development, propelling our brand momentum to new heights. This year, we achieved higher revenue growth with fewer net store openings, marking a more disciplined and efficient growth model. Leveraging new retail formats across channels, represented by MINISO SPACE, MINISO LAND and MINISO FRIENDS, we are converting global scale into sustainable brand influence. We are evolving our stores into resonant interactive spaces, fostering deeper and more lasting emotional bonds with our consumers."

"Looking ahead, we are continuing to reinforce our creative-driven momentum. By staying curious and committed to continuous learning, we are strengthening a resilient brand ecosystem centered on interest-driven consumption, delivering joy and value that remains steadfast through global cycles." Mr. Ye continued.

Mr. Eason Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, "Thanks to outstanding performance of all segments, year-over-year growth of both quarterly and annual revenue outperformed our previous guidance. In December Quarter, gross profit margin reached 46.4%. Adjusted operating profit increased 11.7% to RMB1,062.2 million, with adjusted operating margin of 17.0%. Adjusted EBITDA increased 15.7% to RMB1,419.3 million, with adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.7%. Adjusted earnings per ADS increased 9.4% to RMB2.80. For the year of 2025, net cash from operation activities reached RMB2,577.9 million, as a ratio of 88.9% of adjusted net profit. As of the end of 2025, we still maintained a strong cash position of RMB7,087.9 million. In 2025, the Board approved an automatic share repurchase program to repurchase shares up to HK$1.8 billion from the open markets, underscoring our unwavering confidence in MINISO's intrinsic value and ensuring that our buyback momentum remained uninterrupted even during restricted periods. We have returned shareholders RMB1,907.0 million in 2025, including record-high share buyback of RMB549.2 million and dividends of RMB1,357.8 million, accounting for 65.8% of adjusted net profit for 2025.

In addition, we are pleased to announce a final dividend in the amount of around RMB809.7 million, which was approximately 50% of the adjusted net profit generated in the second half of 2025, payable in April 2026. Our capital allocation strategy in the future will continue to balance growth and our commitment to bringing stable and foreseeable returns to shareholders."

"As we head into 2026, we uphold our commitment to capital discipline, driving operational leverage enterprise-wise. Our focus remains on delivering durable top-line growth and margin improvement by maintaining a flexible and agile posture to mitigate macroeconomic risks as well as sharpening our operational efficiency. By remaining highly responsive to market shifts and capitalizing on new growth drivers, we are well-positioned to navigate external volatility and deliver sustainable and long-term returns to our shareholders."

Exchange Rate

The U.S. dollar (US$) amounts disclosed in this press release, except for those transaction amounts that were actually settled in U.S. dollars, are presented solely for the convenience of the readers. The conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into US$ in this press release is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of December 31, 2025, which was RMB6.9931 to US$1.0000. The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based on the RMB amounts.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, MINISO considers and uses adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating margin, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net profit, adjusted net margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of these non-IFRS financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. MINISO defines adjusted operating profit as operating profit for the period excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses. MINISO calculates adjusted operating margin by dividing adjusted operating profit by revenue for the same period. MINISO defines adjusted effective tax rate as the effective tax rate excluding the tax impact of adjusted items, under non-IFRS financial measures. MINISO defines adjusted net profit as profit for the period excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses, gain or loss from fair value change of derivatives, issuance cost of derivatives and interest expenses related to the Equity Linked Securities, interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui, share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, and changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares. MINISO calculates adjusted net margin by dividing adjusted net profit by revenue for the same period. MINISO defines adjusted EBITDA as adjusted net profit plus depreciation and amortization, finance costs excluding interest expenses related to the Equity Linked Securities and interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the period. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS by dividing adjusted net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the number of ADSs represented by the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share in the same way as it calculates adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS, except that it uses the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis as the denominator instead of the number of ADSs represented by these ordinary shares.

MINISO presents these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its operating performance and formulate business plans. These non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its operating results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its operating performance in the future. Accordingly, MINISO believes that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as the management and board of directors.

These non-IFRS financial measures are not defined under IFRS and are not presented in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-IFRS financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect MINISO's operations. Further, these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from the non-IFRS information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to profit, net profit margin, basic and diluted earnings per share and basic and diluted earnings per ADS, as applicable, or any other measures of performance or as indicators of MINISO's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO's historical non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures, as shown below. The non-IFRS financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing MINISO's data comparatively. MINISO encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the non-IFRS financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.
