Mr. Zhao Peng, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of the company, stated, "Throughout 2025, our business achieved steady and high-quality growth. The annual recruitment market showed a structural recovery trend. While further penetrating the blue-collar segment, the development of emerging technologies like AI drove growth and recovery in hiring demand within the white-collar technical sector. The company has made positive progress in both exploring cutting-edge AI technologies and implementing AI products. Our self-developed Nange and Beige large language models once ranked first on the HuggingFace text model trending list. On the product front, while using AI capabilities to enhance recommendation accuracy and user experience, we are accelerating the commercialization of AI products. The company continues to increase returns to shareholders, planning to allocate an amount for share repurchases and dividends each year over the next three years, starting from 2026, that is no less than 50% of the prior year's adjusted net profit. Concurrently, the share repurchase program limit has been raised to $400 million. This demonstrates the company's confidence in long-term growth and its commitment to sharing the benefits of development with shareholders."
Ms. Wang Wenbei, Deputy Chief Financial Officer, added, "For both the fourth quarter and the full year of 2025, we delivered outstanding financial results, with both revenue and profitability showing high-quality growth. Driven by continuous user penetration and enhanced monetization capabilities through service innovation, our full-year revenue increased by 12.4% year-on-year, further solidifying our industry-leading position as China's largest online recruitment platform. Full-year profit margins reached a record high, showing significant year-on-year improvement, which attests to the efficient operating leverage and superior cost control capabilities derived from our strong two-sided network effects."
