1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided regarding the industry investment rating in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - In the first half of 2025, over half of the convertible bond issuers saw year - on - year revenue growth. It is advisable to focus on some industry targets with in - line mid - year reports and reasonable valuations, while avoiding targets with lower - than - expected mid - year reports and high prices and premiums.

In the convertible bond market, considering the impact of refinancing policies, there is some support on the demand side under the background of supply contraction. However, as the current overall valuation of convertible bonds is at a relatively high level, caution should be exercised regarding correction risks. Attention should be paid to hot themes, the repair opportunities of low - level technology growth sectors, and industries with improved domestic demand and high - dividend sectors [18]. 3.
