Core Viewpoint - Shenghuo Technology Group Limited is preparing for an IPO in Hong Kong, but has recently executed a significant dividend distribution, raising questions about its financial strategy and sustainability [2][6]. Financial Performance - Shenghuo Technology reported continuous revenue growth during the fiscal years 2022 to 2024, with revenues of 11,228.7 million RMB, 16,344.6 million RMB, and 25,188.6 million RMB respectively, and a profit of 1,978 million RMB, 2,715.2 million RMB, and 3,320.4 million RMB [3][4]. - In the first half of 2025, the company achieved a revenue of 12,859.2 million RMB and a profit of 1,211 million RMB, indicating ongoing growth [3][4]. Dividend Distribution - In the first half of 2025, Shenghuo Technology distributed a dividend of 77.6 million RMB, which represents 84.12% of its total profit of 92.2 million RMB for the year [2][6]. - The dividend amount exceeds the company's retained earnings of 71.1 million RMB as of December 2024, effectively depleting nearly 11 years of accumulated profits [2][6]. Customer Concentration - The company exhibits a high dependency on its top five customers, with their contributions to revenue remaining above 91% in most reporting periods, dropping slightly to 79.8% in the fiscal year 2024 [4][5]. - Customer Group A is particularly significant, accounting for 87.9% of revenue in the fiscal year 2022, and still representing 45.2% in the first half of 2025 [4][5]. IPO and Fundraising Plans - The primary purposes for the funds raised through the IPO include enhancing marketing solutions with AI, expanding geographical coverage in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong, acquiring new clients, and supplementing general working capital [6]. - Despite a stable cash position that covers short-term liabilities, the necessity of raising additional funds for working capital has been questioned [8].
