NEUSTADT AN DER WEINSTRASSE, GERMANY – Newsaktuell – 27 March 2026 – The song by Leo Philipp Schmidt and Valle Venia captures the feeling of losing oneself in a world that is growing ever louder and faster, where restlessness and superficiality cause relationships, friendships, and connections to dissolve and be sacrificed.

With emotional depth, singer Natalia Sarsgard describes the path to finding oneself again, to gathering one’s thoughts, to remaining silent, to withdrawing—in order to reflect in the silence, in the comfort, and in the seclusion, to feel and reconnect with ourselves and others.

Through her multifaceted voice, Natalia Sarsgard’s interpretation of the song conveys how strength and courage can arise from deep vulnerability. Without even realizing it, one is accompanied by the confidence that what was thought to be lost can be found again.

Market diversification pays off as non-core markets lead global growth

Building on stable revenue from its core markets (the US, UK, Canada, and Australia), the Group accelerated its expansion into mainland Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and other emerging markets. In 2025, non-core markets accounted for over half of the Group’s total revenue, significantly outpacing core markets in growth and becoming the primary catalyst of its business across the globe. Among these regions, Latin America and the Middle East recorded the strongest upward trend, with growth of 224.4% and 75.5% respectively, while Europe and Associated Countries remained the Group’s largest regional market.

Social media marketing and influencer engagement remain core drivers of YesStyle‘s growth strategy. During 2025, the number of YesStyle influencers increased to over 502,000, representing a year-on-year growth rate of approximately 24.6%. Revenue generated from influencer referrals reached approximately US$104.8 million, up approximately 43.0% year‑on‑year, and accounted for approximately 30% of YesStyle‘s total revenue, highlighting the continued strengthening of the YesStyle influencer ecosystem.

Meanwhile,YesStyle bolstered its localization efforts to capture opportunities in non-English-speaking markets. In July 2025, it launched a Polish-language website, expanding its language offerings to nine. Combined with social-media-driven marketing, regional campaigns via a robust network of influencers, and AI-powered solutions, the Group extended K-Beauty’s reach to a broader audience worldwide. This momentum is further amplified by the opening of Yesful Land in Seoul, South Korea, a physical hub where influencers and the K-Beauty community can converge and create authentic content, bridging digital engagement with real-world experience.

B2C-B2B synergy fuels performance with ABW business scaling rapidly

YesAsia Holdings is an authorized distributor for over 475 K-Beauty brands, serving both B2C and B2B channels. The dual-growth-engine strategy continued to bear fruit in 2025, fortifying the Group’s overall market influence and ongoing advancement.

Notably, ABW maintained its vigorous growth trajectory in 2025, with the newly launched ABW Offline business generating almost US$50 million in revenue in its debut year, underscoring the strong international retail demand for K-Beauty products. During the Year, ABW established distribution networks for 56 leading retailers across 26 markets, spanning North America, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia. Prominent partners include Target, Costco, Primark, Douglas, Sally Beauty, Watsons, and Nykaa. These collaborations have enabled the Group and its K-Beauty brand partners to reach millions of consumers through established offline retail networks, effectively tapping into a market segment that remains significantly larger than its online counterpart.

Mr. Joshua Lau, Founder, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer, said: “Looking ahead, we are confident that K-Beauty’s global development impetus will only gather steam as it has transitioned from a niche category into a mainstream retail staple. To capture the opportunities that arise, we will deepen engagement in non-core markets through targeted and localized digital initiatives. At the same time, we are accelerating our B2B business by connecting K-Beauty brands with international retailers, and leveraging our logistics network and AI-driven capabilities. With dual growth engines in B2C and B2B, advanced technology, and a dedicated team, YesAsia Holdings is well-positioned to soar to new heights and deliver long-term value to shareholders and stakeholders.”

BUSINESS REVIEW
Strategy Adjustment & Opened 10New Retail Stores
As at 31 December 2025, the Group operated a total of 183 chain retail stores, including 178 chain retail stores (31 December 2024: 170 stores) in Hong Kong and 5 chain retail stores (31 December 2024: 6 stores) in Macau respectively. During the Financial Year under Review, the Group opened 10 new retail stores and closed 3 stores upon expiration of their respective lease terms in alignment with the Group’s strategy adjustment.

The ratio of rental expense (cash basis) to sales revenue of retail stores for the year ended 31 December 2025 was approximately 9.6%, which was similar to that of approximately 9.6% for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Introduced Popular Brands & Launched on Grocery Delivery Platform
Hong Kong residents’ growing propensity to spend in Mainland China, coupled with inbound visitors’ preference for in-depth experiences, more rational and prudent consumption patterns, as well as the intensified competition in the local market from Mainland China e-commerce players leveraging economies of scale, the Hong Kong retail market is undergoing a structural long-term transformation, with the industry’s competitive landscape and consumption behaviour being reshaped.

In response to the challenging business environment, the Group adopted a series of timely and targeted measures to navigate these difficulties. These included optimizing product mix and strengthening the offering of basic foodstuffs covering cereals, noodles, canned food, milk, chilled and frozen food, daily necessities as well as basic groceries. The Group also introduced popular Mainland brands as well as imported a wide range of specialty food from around the world to meet the needs and expectations of local consumers and visiting tourists. To further strengthen its business, the Group launched on the Foodpanda grocery delivery platform during 2025 to expand its online sales channels, and rolled out a variety of promotional initiatives including shopping vouchers. These initiatives collectively contributed to the Group’s sales growth during the Financial Year under Review.

The Group procured quality products from overseas suppliers as well as brand owners or importers in Hong Kong. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group offered a total of approximately 3,425 stock keeping units (“SKU”) of products (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately 3,653 SKU) from suppliers principally from (but not limited to) Japan, Mainland China, Europe, Vietnam, Korea, the United States and other Asia-Pacific countries.

The Group sourced the most popular and trendy food products from various regions, striving to provide customers with diverse, multi-brand, and multi-category global product choices.

As at 31 December 2025, the total amount of inventories of the Group amounted to approximately HK$316,841,000 (31 December 2024: approximately HK$339,513,000), representing a decrease of approximately 6.7% year-on-year. The decrease in the Group’s total inventories was mainly attributable to optimised inventory management and the timing shift of the Lunar New Year holiday from January to February.

During the Financial Year under Review, the Group continued to actively develop private label products that on one hand allowed the Group to capture pricing advantages and exercise a higher level of quality control over its products and on the other hand further uplift its brand awareness and strengthen customers’ loyalty. For the Financial Year under Review, sales derived from private label products were approximately HK$520,821,000 (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately HK$477,222,000), accounted for approximately 18.2% of the Group’s revenue for the Financial Year under Review (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately 17.0%).

Expanded Customer Base & Enhanced Loyalty
To further deepen customer stickiness and broaden customers coverage, the Group used big data analysis and reformulated its marketing strategy to launch a new three-tier membership scheme and a second-generation mobile app in mid-June 2020. The new membership scheme helps to elevate brand positioning and market recognition, and the membership rewards have been fully optimised and enhanced, with more member benefits such as stamp reward for multiple-item purchase, special offers for selected products and access to the latest market information. During the Financial Year under Review, the number of the Group’s members increased from approximately 2,280,418 as at 31 December 2024 to approximately 2,395,862 as at 31 December 2025, representing an increase of approximately 5.1%.

The Group launched various marketing and promotional activities during the Financial Year under Review including the “Best Price” promotional campaign, which provided customers with a series of special offers for selected quality products from time to time to enhance customer loyalty. Meanwhile, the Group continued to advertise through television, newspapers, social media platforms and other media, which successfully attracted new customers encouraged repeat purchases and significantly enhanced market awareness of the Group.

PROSPECTS
Looking ahead, uncertainties in Sino-US relations, geopolitical risks and other factors will introduce further variables to economic recovery, and economic growth in Hong Kong and globally is expected to remain under pressure. The Board anticipates that the retail sector in Hong Kong will remain challenging in the near term. Nevertheless, the Group will continue to operate in a cautiously optimistic manner, closely monitor the development of various adverse factors that may impact the Group’s performance, and timely implement necessary and appropriate measures through refined operations and management to adapt to the ever-changing market environment.

The Group will continue to prioritize the Hong Kong market as its core focus, optimize its product mix and enhance the development of its private label products, with a wider range of staple foods and necessities to better meet consumer demand and enhance the Group’s competitiveness in the retail market.

To maintain sound operational efficiency, the Group will timely review the regional distribution of its brand stores, implement a moderate expansion policy and flexible leasing strategies, and actively pursue suitable opportunities to expand the retail network for its core retail brand “Best Mart 360º” and global gourmet brand “FoodVille” in Hong Kong and Macau, targeting a net increase of 10 retail stores annually under its dual-brand model, catering to the diverse needs of different customer segments for quality food products.

Mr. Hui Chi Kwan, Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said, “Faced with an increasingly complex operating environment, the Group will maintain a prudent and pragmatic approach in its operations and continue to work closely with its employees, customers and other stakeholders, striving to improve business performance and deliver stable returns to shareholders.”

During the Financial Year under Review, the Group continued to actively develop private label products that on one hand allowed the Group to capture pricing advantages and exercise a higher level of quality control over its products and on the other hand further uplift its brand awareness and strengthen customers’ loyalty. For the Financial Year under Review, sales derived from private label products were approximately HK$520,821,000 (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately HK$477,222,000), accounted for approximately 18.2% of the Group’s revenue for the Financial Year under Review (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately 17.0%).

Expanded Customer Base & Enhanced Loyalty
To further deepen customer stickiness and broaden customers coverage, the Group used big data analysis and reformulated its marketing strategy to launch a new three-tier membership scheme and a second-generation mobile app in mid-June 2020. The new membership scheme helps to elevate brand positioning and market recognition, and the membership rewards have been fully optimised and enhanced, with more member benefits such as stamp reward for multiple-item purchase, special offers for selected products and access to the latest market information. During the Financial Year under Review, the number of the Group’s members increased from approximately 2,280,418 as at 31 December 2024 to approximately 2,395,862 as at 31 December 2025, representing an increase of approximately 5.1%.

The Group launched various marketing and promotional activities during the Financial Year under Review including the “Best Price” promotional campaign, which provided customers with a series of special offers for selected quality products from time to time to enhance customer loyalty. Meanwhile, the Group continued to advertise through television, newspapers, social media platforms and other media, which successfully attracted new customers encouraged repeat purchases and significantly enhanced market awareness of the Group.

PROSPECTS
Looking ahead, uncertainties in Sino-US relations, geopolitical risks and other factors will introduce further variables to economic recovery, and economic growth in Hong Kong and globally is expected to remain under pressure. The Board anticipates that the retail sector in Hong Kong will remain challenging in the near term. Nevertheless, the Group will continue to operate in a cautiously optimistic manner, closely monitor the development of various adverse factors that may impact the Group’s performance, and timely implement necessary and appropriate measures through refined operations and management to adapt to the ever-changing market environment.

The Group will continue to prioritize the Hong Kong market as its core focus, optimize its product mix and enhance the development of its private label products, with a wider range of staple foods and necessities to better meet consumer demand and enhance the Group’s competitiveness in the retail market.

To maintain sound operational efficiency, the Group will timely review the regional distribution of its brand stores, implement a moderate expansion policy and flexible leasing strategies, and actively pursue suitable opportunities to expand the retail network for its core retail brand “Best Mart 360º” and global gourmet brand “FoodVille” in Hong Kong and Macau, targeting a net increase of 10 retail stores annually under its dual-brand model, catering to the diverse needs of different customer segments for quality food products.

Mr. Hui Chi Kwan, Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said, “Faced with an increasingly complex operating environment, the Group will maintain a prudent and pragmatic approach in its operations and continue to work closely with its employees, customers and other stakeholders, striving to improve business performance and deliver stable returns to shareholders.”
