Our automation equipment are highly customized and designed according to the customers’ technical requirements, specifications, standards and production processes. Consequently, the materials and labor invested by us differ substantially across different products, and the number of units is therefore not a meaningful or appropriate measure of our production capacity.

According to Frost & Sullivan, the average utilization rate of China’s large-scale slaughtering plants was around 30% during the Track Record Period, primarily due to the seasonal fluctuations in the supply of hogs, which may not consistently meet the designed production capacity of those slaughtering plants.

Summary · p. 12

Our slaughter volume increased substantially from 7,972 thousand heads in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 19,164 thousand heads in the same period of 2025, primarily due to our continuous effort to expand our sales channels for meat products and improve our operational efficiency, driving the increase in the utilization rate of our slaughtering plants in the same period.

The ore processing volume decreased significantly from 374.2 kt in 2023 to 321.8 kt in 2024, which was primarily due to production line upgrades and weather-induced delays.

Business · p. 179

Therefore, we adjusted and allocated our processing capacity to the existing ore inventory together with mineralised waste in 2022 and thus consequentially led to a reduction in our actual ore mining volume in the year.
