Inventory balance decreased by 14% year-on-year to HKD 491 million. In addition, the latest information from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange shows that independent stock analyst David Webb increased his holdings of Bosideng International by 224,000 shares on April 16, with an average price of HKD 1.9145 per share, involving HKD 428,800.
