Mr. Guofu Ye, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of MINISO, commented, "We are thrilled to see two significant milestones achieved by MINISO Group in the September Quarter: quarterly revenue surpassed RMB 5 billion for the first time, and MINISO Group's global store counts exceeded 8,000. In the September Quarter, MINISO mainland China delivered an exceptional performance, with over 100 net new stores on a quarterly basis and a high-single-digit level SSSG in this quarter. Both net store expansion and SSSG demonstrated sequential acceleration. Against the backdrop of a highly competitive physical retail environment in domestic market, MINISO mainland China's outstanding results further underscored our ability to respond agilely, execute effectively, and leverage the resilience of our business model. SSSG in MINISO mainland China from year to date reached low-single digit. We are steadily progressing toward our goal of achieving full-year positive SSSG for MINISO mainland China in 2025."

"MINISO overseas had also shown sequential improvement in its same-store GMV, with growth accelerating to low-single digit in the September Quarter. Our strategic markets, such as North America and Europe, continued to deliver outstanding SSSG. We expected to see more momentum from SSSG in the growth of overseas markets, signaling a higher-quality growth that is more sustainable and carries lower operational risk. Meanwhile, we were thrilled to see that the operating margin of MINISO overseas directly operated business has year-over-year improvement, which demonstrated continuous and steady improvement in MINISO's fundamental operational strengths. Notably, TOP TOY achieved a remarkable 111.4% year-over-year revenue increase in the September Quarter, significantly exceeding our expectations and demonstrating its strong market leadership and growth potential in the pop toy industry." Mr. Ye continued.

Mr. Eason Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, "The year-over-year revenue growth on group level reached 28.2%, above our previous guidance. Adjusted operating profit increased 14.8% year over year. Adjusted operating margin was 17.6%, with year-over-year margin contraction sequentially narrowing from previous quarters, both in line with our previous guidance. Adjusted EBITDA increased 18.8% year over year, with a trend of sequential quarterly acceleration in year-over-year growth. Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 23.4%."

" Net cash from operating cash flow was RMB1,299.6 million in this quarter, with an operating cash flow to adjusted net profit ratio of 1.7. As of September 30, our cash position reached RMB7.77 billion. Net cash from operating cash flow for the First Nine Months reached 2,313.8 million, surpassing adjusted net profit in the same period. It demonstrated our solid financial position, high-quality profitability and efficient management ability in working capital, and further underscored the resilience and robust operational cash flow generation of our business that will fuel our future high-quality growth." Mr. Zhang concluded.

As of September 30, 2025, total number of directly operated stores on the group level was 700, compared to 480 as of September 30, 2024. In the September Quarter, revenue from directly operated stores increased 69.9%, while related expenses including rental and related expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses together with payroll excluding share-based compensation expenses increased 40.7%, decelerating from the year-over-year increase of 71.4% and 56.3% in March and June quarter of 2025, respectively. Promotion and advertising expenses increased 43.3%, as a percentage of revenue stabilizing at around 3% in both comparative periods.

Other net income was RMB34.3 million (US$4.8 million), compared to RMB36.8 million in the same period last year. The year-over-year decrease was mainly due to a larger net foreign exchange loss compared with the same period last year, partially offset by an increase in investment income from wealth management products.

Exchange Rate

The U.S. dollar (US$) amounts disclosed in this press release, except for those transaction amounts that were actually settled in U.S. dollars, are presented solely for the convenience of the readers. The conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into US$ in this press release is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of September 30, 2025, which was RMB7.1190 to US$1.0000. The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based on the RMB amounts.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, MINISO considers and uses adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating margin, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net profit, adjusted net margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of these non-IFRS financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. MINISO defines adjusted operating profit as operating profit for the period excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses. MINISO calculates adjusted operating margin by dividing adjusted operating profit by revenue for the same period. MINISO defines adjusted effective tax rate as the effective tax rate excluding the tax impact of adjusted items under non-IFRS financial measures. MINISO defines adjusted net profit as profit for the period excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses, gain or loss from fair value change of derivatives, issuance cost of derivatives and interest expenses related to the Equity Linked Securities, interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui, and share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax. MINISO calculates adjusted net margin by dividing adjusted net profit by revenue for the same period. MINISO defines adjusted EBITDA as adjusted net profit plus depreciation and amortization, finance costs excluding interest expenses related to the Equity Linked Securities and interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the period. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS by dividing adjusted net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the number of ADSs represented by the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share in the same way as it calculates adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS, except that it uses the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis as the denominator instead of the number of ADSs represented by these ordinary shares.

MINISO presents these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its operating performance and formulate business plans. These non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its operating results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its operating performance in the future. Accordingly, MINISO believes that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as the management and board of directors.

These non-IFRS financial measures are not defined under IFRS and are not presented in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-IFRS financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect MINISO's operations. Further, these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from the non-IFRS information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to profit, net profit margin, basic and diluted earnings per share and basic and diluted earnings per ADS, as applicable, or any other measures of performance or as indicators of MINISO's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO's historical non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS measures, as shown below. The non-IFRS financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing MINISO's data comparatively. MINISO encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the non-IFRS financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

Note:

(1) "Others" refers to revenue generated from other operating segments such as "WonderLife", which was a secondary brand targeting on lower-tier cities in mainland China, aggregated and presented as "others". As the MINISO brand increasingly penetrated into lower-tier cities in mainland China, "WonderLife" has become marginalized.
