GL-Carlink’s 2025 Profit Halves Despite Revenue and Gross Margin Growth

The latest announcement is out from GL-Carlink Technology Holding Limited ( (HK:2531) ).

GL-Carlink Technology Holding reported a modest 2.4% rise in revenue to RMB717.1 million for 2025, while gross profit jumped 17.4% to RMB513.6 million, reflecting improved cost of sales and operational efficiency. However, profit for the year halved to RMB21.8 million due to sharply higher distribution, selling, administrative and R&D expenses, as well as increased impairment losses, compressing margins and highlighting pressure on bottom-line performance despite top-line growth.

The company’s profit before tax fell to RMB16.7 million from RMB38.9 million, with additional drag from other losses and finance costs, partially offset by higher other income and contributions from associates. The weaker net result and a fair value loss on equity investments reduced total comprehensive income to RMB16.7 million, signaling that while the core business is expanding, rising operating and development costs are weighing on overall profitability and may prompt closer investor scrutiny of cost management and investment returns.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:2531) stock is a Hold with a HK$5.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on GL-Carlink Technology Holding Limited stock, see the HK:2531 Stock Forecast page.
