weighted voting rights structure financial

"Under our weighted voting rights structure, our share capital comprises Class A ordinary shares"

American depositary shares financial

"Our American depositary shares, each representing one of our Class A ordinary shares, are listed"

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

unaudited interim results financial

"the Company’s unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and its publication"

Financial statements covering a company’s short-term reporting period (such as a quarter or half-year) that have been prepared by management but have not been independently examined by external auditors. They give investors a timely snapshot of revenue, profit and cash flow between annual reports, but carry less assurance than audited accounts because the numbers may be adjusted later or contain errors; think of them as a vetted draft rather than a final, certified report.

earnings conference call financial

"The Company’s management team will host an earnings conference call at 8:30 A.M."

independent non-executive directors financial

"Mr. Qin Charles HUANG, Mr. Herman YU and Ms. Fang XIE as independent non-executive directors"

Independent non-executive directors are board members who do not work for the company and have no significant financial or personal ties to its managers; they do not run day-to-day operations but attend board meetings to oversee strategy and decisions. For investors, they matter because they act like outside referees or impartial advisors who help prevent self-dealing, challenge management when needed, and boost confidence that the company’s decisions serve shareholders’ interests.
