4月29日晚，中原证券公布2025年一季报，公司营业收入为4.01亿元，同比下降37.7%；归母净利润为 1.03亿元，同比下降21.3%；扣非归母净利润为9863万元，同比下降22.1%。 中原证券在投资业务和子公司大宗商品销售方面出现了收入减少，导致一季度营业收入大幅下降。 事实上，中原证券2024年就出现了营收下滑。2024年，中原证券实现营收16.9亿元，同比下降14.13%。 分业务看，公司2024年自营业务亏损8449.51万元，较上年同期减少6.37亿元。投资银行业务收入同比下 降38.79%，一个原因是公司债券承销业务被暂停半年。 2024年10月公告显示，由于中原证券个别投行类业务存在违规行为，证监会决定对公司在2024年10月17 日至2025年4月16日期间，暂停公司债券承销业务。 然而，中原证券2024年自营业务竟然亏损8449.51万元。2025年一季度，公司投资收入继续下滑，公司 投资能力可见一斑。中原证券自营亏损并非单一因素导致，而是激进策略、风控失效、行业竞争共同作 用的结果。2025年一季度自营业务仍未改善，显示深层矛盾尚未解决。 中原证券的业绩波动，折射出区域券商在全面注册 ...
