Suzhou Tfc Optical Communication Co.,Ltd. has released its highly positive 2025 annual report, showing significant growth. The company achieved annual operating revenue of 5.163 billion yuan, representing a year-on-year increase of 58.79%. Net profit attributable to shareholders reached 2.017 billion yuan, up 50.15% from the previous year. After excluding non-recurring items, the net profit stood at 1.976 billion yuan, growing by 50.42%. While revenue expanded substantially, profitability maintained同步 growth, demonstrating the company's strong earnings resilience in high-end products and integrated solutions within the optical interconnect industry chain.
Cash flow performance remained robust. Net cash flow from operating activities for 2025 totaled 1.868 billion yuan, an increase of 47.97% year-on-year, closely matching net profit levels (operating cash flow/net profit ratio approximately 0.93). This indicates maintained operational quality and effective collection capabilities.
The company's asset base continued to expand. Total assets reached 6.449 billion yuan by the end of 2025, growing 36.16% year-on-year. Shareholders' equity attributable to the parent company amounted to 5.506 billion yuan, up 38.36%. Driven by both high profit growth and equity expansion, the weighted average return on equity (ROE) improved to 41.91%, maintaining an elevated level.
Regarding shareholder returns, the company proposed a profit distribution plan based on 777.4 million shares: a cash dividend of 7 yuan per 10 shares (tax inclusive), coupled with a bonus share issue of 4 additional shares for every 10 shares held. Based on this plan, the total cash dividend distribution would approximate 544 million yuan, balancing immediate cash returns with expectations for capital expansion.
**Sustained High Growth Over Three Years**
Suzhou Tfc Optical Communication has maintained a steep growth trajectory over the past three years. Operating revenue increased from 1.939 billion yuan in 2023 to 3.252 billion yuan in 2024, and further to 5.163 billion yuan in 2025, representing a cumulative growth of over 165% in two years. Net profit attributable to shareholders grew from 730 million yuan to 1.344 billion yuan, and then to 2.017 billion yuan over the same period, nearly tripling in three years.
The weighted average ROE improved from 36.74% in 2024 to 41.91% in 2025, positioning the company's capital return metrics favorably among comparable A-share listed peers. Basic earnings per share were 2.5958 yuan, an increase of approximately 50%.
Quarterly analysis shows relatively balanced net profits in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2025, at 562 million yuan, 566 million yuan, and 552 million yuan respectively. These figures represent a significant increase compared to the first quarter's 338 million yuan. While profit generation was weighted towards the latter part of the year, the final quarter did not show a notable decline, indicating sustained demand resilience.
**LiDAR and Emerging Businesses as Growth Drivers**
Beyond its core optical interconnect business, the company is leveraging its optical component technology platform to expand into areas such as LiDAR and biophotonics. In the LiDAR segment, it provides customized optical connectivity components for OEMs, demonstrating rapid mass production capabilities, and aims to secure more high-quality orders based on competitive dynamics.
The company noted that differing technical roadmaps among LiDAR manufacturers lead to varied requirements for optical components in terms of product form and technical specifications. This creates opportunities for suppliers with multi-process and multi-technology capabilities to differentiate themselves. While the current scale of emerging businesses is not separately detailed in the annual report summary, management views them as potential pillars for balanced and sustainable future growth.
**Dividend and Bonus Issue Significantly Expands Capital**
The proposed profit distribution includes a substantial bonus issue of 4 shares for every 10 shares held, which will significantly increase the total share capital upon implementation. Based on the current approximately 777.4 million shares, the total share capital is expected to expand to around 1.088 billion shares after the bonus issue. The cash dividend of 7 yuan per 10 shares translates to a total cash distribution of approximately 544 million yuan based on the current share count.
Previously, the company completed its fundraising project titled "High-Speed Optical Engine Construction Project for 5G and Data Centers" and permanently allocated approximately 36.53 million yuan of surplus raised funds (including wealth management income, final amount subject to the actual balance in the dedicated account on the transfer date) to supplement working capital, thereby enhancing the efficiency of idle raised funds.
**Core Position in Optical Interconnect Strengthened by Multi-Technology Platforms**
Suzhou Tfc Optical Communication positions itself as a "one-stop platform technology enterprise" in the global optical interconnect field. Its main products encompass precision micro-optical components, wavelength division multiplexing system-level passive solutions, high-speed optical engine packaging and integration, and high-density optical interconnect integration, primarily serving data center and telecommunications markets.
Leveraging years of process expertise in foundational materials such as precision ceramics, engineering plastics, and optical glass, the company has developed multiple technology platforms including parallel optical design and manufacturing, FAU optical array design and manufacturing, and high-speed optical engine design and packaging. This has established high entry barriers. The company has been awarded a place among the "Top 10 Most Competitive Enterprises in China's Optical Devices, Auxiliary Equipment, and Raw Materials" for eight consecutive years from 2018 to 2025.
In terms of industrial layout, the company implements a "dual headquarters, dual production bases, multiple R&D centers" strategy. It maintains headquarters in Suzhou and Singapore, mass production bases in Jiangxi and Thailand, extends R&D centers to Shenzhen and Japan, and provides sales and service coverage across China, Singapore, the United States, and Thailand. This structure offers global mainstream customers options for supply chain diversification.
