In order to reflect the market price of gold in our selling prices, we adjust the selling prices of the traditional watches manufactured and sold by us in response to fluctuations in gold prices.

Business · p. 259

The decreasing trend in the average weight of gold in our traditional watches was mainly attributable to our strategy to maintain the average selling price of our traditional watches at a steady level to cater to the price expectations of end consumers, as keeping the original weight of gold in our traditional watches would lead to an increase in the selling price of such watches, which may in turn negatively affect consumer demand for our traditional watches.

Business · p. 260

While the average purchase price of gold increased by 79.06% from RMB389.13 per gram in FY2022 to RMB696.76 per gram in 5M2025, the average selling price of the traditional watches manufactured and sold by us rose by only 18.96% from RMB2,516 per unit in FY2022 to RMB2,993 per unit in 5M2025, demonstrating our ability to mitigate cost inflation through operational efficiencies.
