Conversely, community living services have increased their share from 27.8% to 40.3% during the same period [1]. Regional Concentration - Aolian Service's revenue is heavily reliant on the Guangdong market, with over 40% of revenue coming from this region from 2022 to 2024, and 36.5% in the first seven months of 2025. This high regional concentration poses risks related to economic conditions and regulatory changes in Guangdong [2].

Market Environment - The current market environment for property companies' IPOs is challenging, with only two successful listings in 2023 and 2024 each, and no successful listings in the first half of 2025. Aolian Service is the only company to have submitted a prospectus during this period [3]. - The IPO landscape has become more stringent, with increased scrutiny on profitability and business sustainability, making it difficult for even larger property companies to go public [3]. Expansion Strategy - Aolian Service plans to increase its project portfolio through acquisitions of third-party service providers in commercial and urban space services as well as community living services. However, the effectiveness of this strategy in addressing existing risks remains to be seen [4]. Shareholding Structure - The company's shareholding is highly concentrated, with the controlling shareholder, Su Tianpeng, holding approximately 99% of the voting rights. While this structure may enhance decision-making efficiency, it raises potential governance concerns [5].
