An update from Plutus Financial Group Limited ( (PLUT) ) is now available.

On December 30, 2025, Plutus Financial Group Limited reported unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2025, showing revenue of HK$4.5 million, up about 3% year on year, driven by a 50% jump in securities brokerage commission amid improving sentiment in the Hong Kong equity market, partly offset by a 19% decline in interest income due to tighter margin loan measures. Despite the modest top-line growth, the company’s net loss widened sharply to HK$17.8 million from HK$3.8 million a year earlier, as management stepped up advertising and marketing to attract new customers, paid a special post-listing bonus that lifted compensation costs, and incurred substantially higher professional and advisory fees related to its Nasdaq listing; while cash, loans to customers and total assets increased and shareholders’ equity rose to HK$107.0 million, the enlarged loss and higher expenses highlight that Plutus is in an investment and expansion phase that weighs on short-term profitability even as it strengthens its market presence and capital base.
