A stock market revival, declining Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rates (“Hibor”) in the second quarter, stabilised residential sales and a steady tourism rebound helped counterbalance external pressures. However, persistent outbound travel by residents continued to divert spending elsewhere, weighing on local retail sales. Meanwhile, the office leasing market remained subdued, reflecting an ongoing imbalance between supply and demand. Against this backdrop, distributable income of the Trust decreased by 12.6% to HK$476 million and distribution per unit (“DPU”) declined by 13.3% to HK$0.0701.Ms. Christina Hau, Chief Executive Officer of Champion REIT (Left), Ms. Amy Luk, Investment and Investor Relations Director of Champion REIT (Right)Three Garden RoadAlthough overall office leasing momentum in Central remained suppressed, we received increased leasing inquiries amid rising financial market activities, with demand primarily from finance-related firms. Several new small-sized tenants, including family offices, committed to establishing operations in the property, while an existing banking sector tenant expanded its presence here. Occupancy of Three Garden Road office was 80.7% as at 30 June 2025. Rental income of the property fell 5.4% to HK$540 million (2024: HK$571 million). We advanced lease renewal efforts, successfully concluding all 2025 expirations with a high retention rate, including several anchor tenant renewals. For 2026, over 70% of the expiring leases have already been renewed.Langham Place Office TowerDuring the reporting period, Langham Place Office Tower launched “6D Wellness” YouTube channel to strengthen the property’s positioning as a one-stop wellness and lifestyle hub. As at 30 June 2025, lifestyle (wellness) tenants comprised 68% of the property’s tenant mix. Occupancy of Langham Place Office Tower remained stable at 86.9% as at 30 June 2025. The expanded co-working space introduced a Social Wellness Hall for wellness workshops and events, resonating with the property’s wellness positioning. Market rental continued to face challenges with rental income dropped by 9.1% to HK$151 million (2024: HK$166 million).Ms. Christina Hau, Chief Executive Officer of Champion REITLangham Place MallAs Langham Place Mall celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2025, it continues to embrace its bold “Stay Local, Trend Global” vision. Through immersive experiences and exclusive merchandise, we successfully attracted record crowds and drove sales, establishing new single-day footfall record in August. Recently, fashion brand BENLAI, marking its inaugural Hong Kong flagship presence in the mall, and Umbro’s first in town lifestyle themed pop-up store, have commenced operations. Further elevating the mall’s offerings, Chiikawa Ramen Buta has chosen this location for its premier overseas outlet, shortly becoming a hotspot since opening. Occupancy of Langham Place Mall remained high at 99.2% as at 30 June 2025, reaching full committed occupancy currently. Since changing consumer behaviour has posed challenges for tenants, rental income of the mall declined to HK$338 million (2024: HK$378 million).DistributionDistributable income of the Trust decreased by 12.6% to HK$476 million (2024: HK$544 million) and DPU declined by 13.3% to HK$0.0701 (2024: HK$0.0809). Based on the closing unit price of HK$2.08 recorded as at 30 June 2025, the total DPU represented an annualised distribution yield of 6.7%.Asset ValueThe appraised value of the Trust’s property portfolio was HK$58.1 billion as at 30 June 2025, declining by 3.3% from HK$60.1 billion as at 31 December 2024.SustainabilityWe continue to create shared values across our ecosystem through initiatives that drive climate resilience, build meaningful connections, and support community wellness. During the reporting period, we implemented an AI-powered chiller optimisation system at Three Garden Road, achieving 6.1% annual energy savings. Through our EcoChampion Pledge programme, we bring both office and retail tenants together in the shared commitment to fulfilling measurable environmental goals. Furthermore, Our Champion REIT ESG Gala, themed "Innovation - Inspiration · Integration", brought together over 1,000 tenants and business partners to advance sustainable operations and inclusive practices.OutlookAlthough Hong Kong retail sector has returned to growth and the financial market has rebounded, the overall operating environment of the Trust is expected to remain challenging in the rest of 2025. While lower HKD interest rates should reduce interest expenses, negative rental reversion will likely continue to suppress rental income and reduce distributions compared to last year. We remain committed to maintaining operational agility to navigate this competitive market landscape.About Champion REIT (stock code: 2778)Champion Real Estate Investment Trust is a trust formed to own and invest in income- producing office and retail properties.

SHENZHEN, CHINA, Aug 19, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - On 18 August, China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS” or the “Company”) announced its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025 (the “Reporting Period”), with both revenue and profit recording year-on-year growth, demonstrating the initial results of its strategic transformation. During the Reporting Period, the Company recorded revenue of approximately RMB4.00 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 10.8%. In the case that all medicines were directly sold by the Company, revenue would be approximately RMB4.67 billion, up 8.9% year-on-year. Net profit was approximately RMB0.93 billion, representing an increase of 3.1% year-on-year.The results reflect that CMS has emerged from the shadow of National Volume-based Procurement (“National VBP”), and its performance is expected to return to a sustainable growth trajectory. Revenue from the Company’s key non-National VBP exclusive/branded products and innovative products (in the case that all medicines were directly sold by the Company) reached approximately RMB2.90 billion, up 20.6% year-on-year, accounting for 62.1% of total revenue. The company's exclusive/branded products and innovative products have a favorable competitive landscape and high visibility of future growth, and have now become the main drivers of performance growth.According to the interim results announcement, the company has been planning its “New CMS” blueprint since 2018, anchored on the three strategic pillars of “product innovation, commercial model reform, and international expansion” to build a sustainable second growth curve. By the first half of 2025, solid operating results and the steady delivery of innovation outcomes have confirmed that the Company’s strategic upgrade has been gradually translated into tangible achievements.“New Products” Strategy Drives Innovation Value Realization and Solidifies Growth MomentumAt the forefront of the Company’s three strategic pillars, the “product innovation” strategy leverages a three-dimensional innovation mechanism of “overseas licensing, domestic collaboration, and in-house R&D” to continuously inject high-value short-, medium- and long-term pipelines, serving as a key growth engine. Currently, the innovation strategy has entered a period of continuous harvest, with new products continuously releasing commercial and clinical value.To date, the Company has successfully commercialized five innovative drugs in China; By 2025, two innovative products — ruxolitinib cream and Desidustat Tablets—are also expected to receive marketing approvals. Ruxolitinib cream is the first and only topical JAK inhibitor approved by the U.S. FDA and the European Medicines Agency for repigmentation in non-segmental vitiligo, and is expected to become the first approved treatment for vitiligo in China, filling a market gap and bringing new hope to Chinese vitiligo patients. Additionally, the New Drug Application (NDA) for the Alzheimer’s disease drug ZUNVEYL in China was accepted in July this year; the consumer healthcare product Poly-L-lactic Acid Microparticle Filler Injection has been approved for marketing, further enriching the Company’s diversified product portfolio.Among the innovative pipeline under R&D, several blockbuster candidates have entered the late-stage clinical development in China and are expected to be commercialized within the next one to three years, forming a new driving force for sustained growth.Among these, the collaborative product Y-3 for Injection has completed Phase III clinical trials in China. This product is an original unimolecular Class 1 innovative drug and the only non-peptide PSD95/nNOS uncoupler that has entered clinical development, with potential to become the first dual-function brain cytoprotectant for treating ischemic stroke while preventing post-stroke depression and anxiety. Another oral small molecule Class 1 innovative drug, ABP-671 (a URAT1 inhibitor) for the treatment of gout and hyperuricemia, is progressing through Phase IIb/III clinical trials in China. Compared with existing mainstream drugs, ABP-671 has the potential to reduce uric acid to lower levels at lower doses and possesses gout-tophus dissolution capability, thereby offering patients a more effective and safer treatment option.CMS continues to expand its innovative pipeline and enhance its end-to-end innovation capabilities to ensure the steady, phased marketing approval of innovative products. In H1 2025, two new collaborative R&D innovative products — ZUNVEYL and MG-K10 (a long-acting anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody injection) — were added to the portfolio. To date, the Company has deployed about 40 differentiated innovative pipeline products, including approximately 20 in-house R&D projects.Advancing “New Models” and “New Markets” Strategies to Unlock Multi-dimensional GrowthAccording to the interim results announcement, CMS continues to advance its “New Models — Commercial Model Reform” strategy, forging anti-cyclical resilience through a diversified ecosystem. It also firmly implements its “New Markets - International Expansion” strategy, building a multi-dimensional growth framework via an industrial internationalization model.Under the commercial model reform strategy, the Company continues to focus on specialty therapeutic fields while expanding into new retail and new media channels, building a comprehensive marketing and promotion system that covers both “in-hospital + out-of-hospital” and “online + offline” channels, and reinforcing its diversified product portfolio with consumer attributes. Its skin health business, Dermavon, has demonstrated strong potential in this particular segment with consumer attributes. Since its independent operation in 2021, Dermavon has achieved dual leadership in both the “coverage of dermatology indications” and the “revenue scale of dermatological prescription drugs”, and is proposed to be spun off and separately listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange by way of introduction and distribution in specie, to further unlock its standalone value and high-growth potential.In terms of internationalization, CMS successfully completed its secondary listing on the Main Board of the Singapore Exchange by way of introduction on 15 July 2025, marking a new milestone in its “industrial internationalization” strategy. With Singapore as a hub, the Company has established a comprehensive business system covering the entire value chain of “R&D–Manufacturing–Commercialization” for emerging markets. To date, its commercial platform company, Rxilient, has cumulatively submitted nearly 20 registration applications for pharmaceutical products and medical devices across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan Region, covering therapeutic fields such as dermatology, ophthalmology, oncology, autoimmune, and central nervous system. Ruxolitinib cream (vitiligo indication) has been approved for marketing in Macau and Hong Kong, and its registration applications have been submitted in Singapore and Taiwan Region. Intravenous Toripalimab (the first China-originated anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody drug that has been approved by the China NMPA and the U.S. FDA) has been submitted for registration in five countries, including Malaysia. Tildrakizumab Injection and Sucroferric Oxyhydroxide Chewable Tablets have also been approved for marketing in Hong Kong. Meanwhile, PharmaGend, an associate CDMO manufacturing facility in which CMS holds a 45.0% equity interest, now has an annual production capacity of 1 billion units of oral solid dosage forms (tablets and capsules), and has obtained a drug manufacturing license from Singapore’s HSA, U.S. FDA cGMP certification, and passed Swiss QP audits. The construction of new production lines for nasal sprays, creams, and injectables is progressing steadily, providing high-standard production and delivery capabilities for the international market.Looking ahead, the growth logic of “New CMS” is expected to accelerate its realization, with profitability and performance resilience improving simultaneously.

(“China BlueChem” or the “Company,” stock code: 3983), China’s largest chemical fertilizer central enterprise in both production capacity and production volume, has announced its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025. In the first half of 2025, the Company realized a revenue of RMB 5.85 billion, slightly down by 2.6% year-on-yearly. Net profit attributable to owners of the Company amounted to RMB 641 million, a slight year-on-year decrease of 6.7%.Mr. RAO Shicai, CEO of China BlueChem said, “Despite the complex and volatile external environment and internal structural adjustment pressures, the Company’s key operating indicators have been successfully achieved. During the period, the Company has strengthened its safety production management, actively expanded its market and sales channels, and further developed lean management, while at the same time steadily implementing various measures to stabilize growth, reinforce reforms, and enhance efficiency Moreover, the Company has consistently adhered to a philosophy of green and sustainable development. Its methanol plant has been awarded the honorary title of “Energy Efficiency Leader” by the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation for 14 consecutive years, and its synthetic ammonia plant has been awarded the honorary title of “Water Efficiency Leader” by the China Nitrogen Fertilizer Industry Association for 6 consecutive years. It also won the “2025 ESG Model Enterprise Award” at the 4th International Green Zero-Carbon Festival and ESG Leadership Summit, setting a benchmark for sustainable development brands.”In respect of production management, the Company continuously strengthened production and operation control and system management, thoroughly implementing the concept of green development and stable safety production conditions. During the period, methanol production at CNOOC Fudao and the cumulative throughput at Basuo Port both reached new highs for corresponding periods in history. The CNOOC Huahe Chemical Fertilizer Plant achieved 314 days of continuous operation, making a new record of itself and setting outstanding production indicators. In the first half of the year, the Company produced 968,000 tonnes of urea, 781,000 tonnes of methanol, 450,000 tonnes of phosphate fertilisers and compound fertilizers, and 132,000 tonnes of acrylonitrile series products.With regard to sales management, amidst the complex and ever-changing market situation, the Company has continued to further strengthen market analysis and keep up with the market to implementprecise pricing. By solidifying the weekly production and sales coordination meeting mechanism, the Company has optimised storage and transportation coordination, and ensured efficient product circulation., It has also comprehensively advanced market expansion and efficiency improvements. In the first half of the year, the Company sold 996,000 tonnes of urea, 726,000 tonnes of methanol; 386,000 tonnes of phosphate fertilizers and compound fertilizers, and 127,000 tonnes of acrylonitrile series products.As for green development, the Company accelerated the implementation of key projects, successfully producing the first tonne of green methanol in China using urban waste as raw material, and obtaining International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) in the first half of the year. The green methanol has been successfully applied to domestically produced dual-fuel vessels, marking the first domestic use of green methanol. Furthermore, the Company achieved unified integration of monitoring data into the environmental protection information system, with pollutant emissions meeting standards at 100% for three consecutive years, and the number of environmental pollution incidents remaining at zero. The comprehensive utilization rate of phosphogypsum at DYK increased from 61.15% to 73.09%, exceeding the target requirements.Looking ahead to the second half of the year, urea will remain in a capacity expansion cycle and the overall market will continue to be oversupplied. In the third quarter, demand will be stronger driven by the combined impact of the export window and agricultural demand. Entering the fourth quarter, the release of new capacity and weakening demand will create a ripple effect, and prices are expected to remain under pressure. The prices of monoammonium phosphate may fluctuate within a narrow range at a high level, supported by strong raw material costs and favorable demand factors. The diammonium phosphate market is expected to maintain a stable consolidation cycle. In the third quarter, domestic autumn storage and export demand will resonate, resulting in strong overall demand and stable prices. In the fourth quarter, the demand for phosphate fertilizer is expected to decline overall, putting downward pressure on prices, but overall fluctuations will be relatively limited, supported by cost factors. In the second half of the year, the trend of methanol supply is expected to remain accommodative. Benefited from anti-involution in mainland China and the restriction policy on new coal-to-methanol projects, the supply and demand structure is expected to be improved. Downstream demand may see a phased recovery, with the overall market trend characterized by fluctuations. Regarding acrylonitrile, the oversupply situation will further intensify. Any improvement in acrylonitrile prices will require major domestic companies to reduce plant loads.Mr. RAO Shicai, CEO of China BlueChem said, “In the second half of 2025, the Company will refine its equipment management system to ensure safe and stable operation of facilities and establish a solid foundation for intrinsic safety. At the same time, it will focus on establishing its quality positioning, expanding market and sales, and enhancing marketing effectiveness. "AI+" initiatives will be promoted across the Company to accelerate the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy. In addition, the Company will push forward the study of key projects on the utilization of carbon-rich natural gas and strengthen communication matrix management to continuously enhance brand value.”About China BlueChemical Ltd.China BlueChemical Ltd.

BRISBANE, AUS, Aug 19, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Cholrem Pty Ltd, an Australian pharmaceutical research company, has published a landmark study in Cardiology Research and Cardiovascular Medicine, revealing that its proprietary cyclodextrin-based therapy Cavadex reverses atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), the world's leading cause of death.Angiogram: Plaque Reduced Within 6 WeeksThe peer-reviewed case series demonstrates rapid symptom relief and significant regression of arterial plaque, marking a potential paradigm shift in heart disease treatment. The study followed 20 high-risk patients with advanced angina, with 18 (90%) reporting substantial symptom improvement (P0.0001) compared to expected outcomes. Objective imaging confirmed unprecedented results, including Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score reductions (e.g., from 591 to 521) and a 70% coronary artery blockage reduced to 27%. Cavadex, formulated with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD), stimulates the body's natural vascular repair, offering a faster, more effective approach than existing therapies.The late Professor Laurie G. Howes, a renowned Australian cardiologist and study co-author, called Cavadex "the greatest pharmacological development in cardiology since statins." U.S. cardiologist Dr. James C. Roberts, who has treated hundreds with the therapy, noted, "We're seeing rapid, profound improvements in high-risk patients, with objective plaque regression and an excellent safety profile, leveraging a TGA- and FDA-approved molecule."Cholrem, founded by Kyle Hodgetts - a heart disease patient who pioneered Cavadex after conventional treatments failed - has supplied over 20,000 units globally. Despite HPβCD's non-patentable status limiting industry investment, Cholrem is driving this breakthrough forward. The company urges global medical communities to launch large-scale trials to validate these findings for millions suffering from heart disease.About Cholrem Pty Ltd: Cholrem is dedicated to advancing cyclodextrin-based therapies to combat ASCVD, the world's top killer, with a mission to deliver innovative, life-saving treatments. Cardiology Research and Cardiovascular Medicine Published Paper: https://www.gavinpublishers.com/article/view/cyclodextrin-therapy-for-atherosclerotic-cardiovascular-disease-a-case-series-on-plaque-regression-and-symptomatic-improvementRelated Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JqIanZxmuQContact InformationKyle HodgettsCholrem Pty Ltd Founder & CEOinfo@cholrem.com+61 424830574Related Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JqIanZxmuQSOURCE: Cholrem Pty Ltd Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
