Mr. Wei Aiguo, Managing Director (Right),Mr. Derek Lai, Deputy Managing Director (Left)HONG KONG, Sept 26, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) –  AEON Credit Service (Asia) Company Limited (“AEON Credit” or the “Group”; Stock Code: 00900) today announced its interim results for the six months ended 31st August 2024 (“1HFY2024/25” or the “Reporting Period”).During the Reporting Period, the Group’s revenue increased by 9.9% year-on-year to HK$860.3 million. The increase was attributable to the growth in interest income, driven by various marketing programs implemented in 1HFY2024/25 that successfully sustained sales growth despite the slow economic recovery. With the cost-to-income ratio decreasing to 47.0% from 48.0% in 1HFY2023/24 due to enhanced operational efficiency, the Group recorded an operating profit before impairment losses and impairment allowances of HK$426.0 million for the Reporting Period, representing an increase of 11.7% from 1HFY2023/24. Profit after tax was HK$170.4 million (1HFY2023/24: HK$191.4 million). The decrease in profit after tax was due to the increase in impairment losses and impairment allowances as a result of the rise in credit defaults and weakened economic indicators.The Board has resolved to declare an interim dividend of 24.0HK cents per share (1HFY2023/24: 24.0 HK cents per share), representing a dividend payout ratio of 59.0%.To cope with the slower than expected economic recovery and other headwinds, the Group took timely measures during the Reporting Period to sustain the increase in both sales and receivables, while making significant efforts to enhance its risk-based pricing mechanism to maximize the return from its credit card and personal loan portfolios, and utilized an effective credit risk management mechanism to reduce the likelihood of credit impairment.The Group achieved an overall increase in sales of 10.6% in 1HFY2024/25 compared with the first half of the previous year, and the gross advances and receivables balance continued to record an increase of 3.8% from the end of February 2024.With regard to marketing, the Group utilized targeted marketing and attractive promotions to better promote the competitive edge of its carefully devised products and services to the intended customers. Meanwhile, in order to diversify its branch network and meet customers’ growing demand for face-to-face advisory services, the Group continued to revamp and expand its branch network, including the opening of the new Shatin branch in June 2024 with a dedicated insurance consultation counter.To further strengthen its technological foundation, the Group has successfully relocated its core data center to Tseung Kwan O, with its infrastructure ranked top tier in terms of uptime guarantee, fault tolerance and competitive service cost. The new data center is located in a building purposely designed to meet internationally recognized green building certification standards, demonstrating the Group’s commitment to integrating sustainability into its business operations.Looking ahead, the Group will seek receivable growth at reasonable yields while managing funding expenses to increase net interest income. Flexible marketing strategies will also be adopted to broaden the customer base and service channels, leveraging on systems to boost service quality and operational efficiency. In addition, the Group will endeavour to diversify revenue streams by cultivating fee-generating transactions and insurance intermediary businesses.As credit conditions are expected to remain challenging, the Group will closely monitor the effectiveness of credit assessment and credit management improvement, as well as achieve better maturity matching, to minimize credit and liquidity risks.Regarding digitalization of operations, the Group will continue to enhance its call center platform and provide responsive customer interaction. Data analytics tools will also be further developed to heighten the effectiveness of marketing, credit assessment and credit management activities.To enhance credit card services, the upcoming introduction of the virtual credit card functionality within the “AEON HK” mobile application will provide customers with immediate purchasing capabilities right after card-approval and activation without the need for branch visits.Besides, in response to evolving consumer preferences and payment technologies, a new credit card design will be launched on 30 September 2024 to offer customers a more convenient and premium payment experience.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 26, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Clean Energy Transition Asia (CETA) Exhibition and Summit is set to take place  at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) from 9-11 October, 2024, uniting leaders from the clean energy sectors to accelerate Asia’s transition to a sustainable energy future. Co-located with the distinguished International Greentech & Eco Products Exhibition and Conference Malaysia (IGEM) 2024 and the MobilityX Asia, CETA will provide an integrated platform for both public and private stakeholders to collaborate on innovative solutions, driving sustainability and energy security across the region.This year’s event will closely align with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), positioning CETA as a key driver in the nation’s vision for energy transition. Launched last year by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, the NETR outlines a comprehensive strategy for achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, and emphasises the importance of balancing economic growth with sustainability and energy security.  The Summit will serve as a platform to advance the country’s ambitious green energy agenda while setting a model for the region.McKinsey & Company and Rystad Energy join CETA as Knowledge Partner and Strategic Partner respectively, lending strength to the Summit with their key research and insights.Vishal Agarwal, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company, stated, “Our assessment shows that in Asia alone, there is a potential for new value pools in green businesses worth $3 to $5 trillion in the next decade. This includes areas such as renewables, green data centres, electrification and transportation, and green materials.”Mel Lanvers-Shah, CEO of The Co_Lab Pte Ltd, the event's owner and organizer, emphasised, “CETA’s alignment with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap demonstrates the crucial role that industry collaboration plays in achieving our collective sustainability goals. Together, we can build on the NETR's vision and extend its impact across Asia through the CETA platform.”Key themes addressed at the Summit include Policy & Energy Leadership, RE Ramp Up, The Hydrogen Economy, Financing Zero, Carbon, Transition Bridge and CASE Mobility Futures (a Connected Autonomous Shared Electric Mobility future for ASEAN).The Summit sessions will include top-level Ministerial Keynotes, Global Leadership Keynote Addresses, Global Leadership Panels and invitational Minister CEO Leadership Roundtables.Vijay Krishnan, Partner and Head of Asia Pacific at Rystad Energy, who is also speaking at the CETA Summit, noted,“Rystad Energy anticipates a continued rise in emissions, but expect them to decline afterward. Unfortunately, some key developed nations have shifted focus away from decarbonisation, emissions management and ESG principles. This shift in rhetoric is beginning to impact ASEAN, which is a significant concern we are committed to addressing at CETA.”“CETA's emphasis on adopting a whole-of-energy approach mirrors Malaysia’s NETR goals, particularly in its focus on balancing the development of clean energy technologies with the responsible use of hydrocarbons,” added Mel Lanvers-Shah.“Through innovative discussions and partnerships, the summit aims to accelerate the deployment of renewable energy projects, such as solar and wind, while fostering technologies like carbon capture and storage (CCS) to ensure a smooth transition in line with Malaysia's 2050 net-zero ambitions.”The IGEM, CETA and MobilityX Exhibition will feature over 500 exhibitors and sponsors, and is expecting an audience size of nearly 50,000 attendees, including energy professionals from across the region, with a view to exploring and procuring critical solutions that will help them grow their businesses.Organised by The Co_Lab Pte Ltd, CETA is held under the patronage of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES), with the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation (MGTC) as its strategic partner and PETRONAS as its Industry Patron.To register and for more information, please visit www.ceta.asiaAbout CETAThe Clean Energy Transition Asia (CETA) Exhibition and Summit is the premier event in Asia focused on driving the region’s energy transition by uniting the clean energy and hydrocarbon sectors.
