Based on a preliminary review of the Company’s unaudited management accounts for the Reporting Period, total profit is expected to range between US$68 million (equivalent to approximately HK$532 million) and US$74 million (equivalent to approximately HK$579 million).
The anticipated increase in profit is primarily attributable to:
Continuing strategic partnerships with leading global pharmaceutical companies, including the global strategic collaboration with AstraZeneca.
– The Company has received gross proceeds totaling approximately US$175 million from the allotment and issuance of the subscription shares, as well as partial upfront, milestone, and option exercise fees.
Newly secured out-licensing and collaboration agreements for innovative products, which contributed significantly to revenue during the Reporting Period and are evolving into a normalized revenue stream of the Company.
Dr. Jingsong Wang, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Harbour BioMed, commented: "This anticipated improvement in profitability underscores the meaningful progress we’ve made in executing our strategic priorities. The performance reflects the strength of our diversified business model and our ability to translate scientific innovation into tangible value. We will continue to build on this momentum through innovation and high-impact collaborations to deliver sustainable growth."
