Leader Education Grows Revenue but Faces Margin and Profit Pressure in Interim Results

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Leader Education Limited ( (HK:1449) ) has shared an announcement.

Leader Education Limited reported unaudited interim results for the six months ended 28 February 2026, showing revenue of RMB191.3 million, an 11.1% increase from a year earlier. Despite higher sales, gross profit fell 24.9% to RMB43.0 million as cost of sales climbed sharply, compressing margins.

Profit for the period declined 16.5% to RMB20.2 million, weighed down by higher finance costs, which nearly doubled year on year, and increased administrative and other expenses. The figures suggest that while the company is growing its top line, rising financing and operating costs are pressuring profitability and could influence its financial flexibility and returns to shareholders.
