Product Expansion and Client Diversification - The company has developed a diverse technology matrix based on three core technologies: computer modeling, three-dimensional molding, and seamless bonding.

Sports products have become the second-largest category, accounting for 37% of total revenue in FY25, with intimate apparel at 54%, consumer electronics accessories at 5%, and breast cups at 3%. The revenue for Bonding sportswear is expected to grow by 50% in FY25 and 40% in the first half of FY26, with Bonding sportswear accounting for over 40% of sports product revenue in the first half of FY26. The client base has diversified from early reliance on Victoria's Secret (35% revenue share in FY2014) to include Uniqlo, as well as international sports brands like NIKE, Adidas, Lululemon, and On [2]. Production Capacity and Cost Management - The company's production capacity is distributed with 85% in Vietnam and 15% in China. The Vietnamese production base is strategically planned by category, with six factories to meet U.S. market demand and effectively control tariff risks. The domestic production capacity relocation from Shenzhen to Zhaoqing is nearing completion, with ongoing efforts to enhance production efficiency. In terms of profitability, the company faced restructuring and interest costs due to the relocation, with restructuring costs and interest expenses projected at HKD 220 million and HKD 340 million for FY25, respectively. Future capital expenditures are expected to be manageable, with an estimated HKD 250 million for FY26 and under HKD 150 million annually for the next three years, compared to a peak of HKD 1.21 billion in FY19. The company's EBITDA for FY25 is projected at HKD 1.06 billion, with a goal to reduce debt by at least HKD 1 billion over the next 3-4 years, which, combined with anticipated interest rate reductions, may lead to savings in interest expenses and cost optimization [3].
