Shandong Molong Petroleum Machinery has issued a preliminary estimate indicating it expects to swing from a substantial loss in 2024 to a net profit of RMB 4 million to RMB 6 million for the 2025 financial year, equating to year-on-year growth of more than 100%, with basic earnings per share projected at RMB 0.005–0.008. The company attributes the turnaround to a robust recovery in operations, including a significant year-on-year increase in production and sales volumes, approximately 50% growth in overseas operating income driven by its overseas strategy, higher capacity utilisation, and stronger product gross margins, complemented by tighter lean management and cost controls; non-recurring items such as government subsidies, asset disposal gains or losses, and litigation-related damages totaling around RMB 30 million also affected net profit. The latest figures, which have been discussed with but not yet audited by the external accountants, imply a marked improvement in core operating performance, although net profit after deducting extraordinary items remains negative, and the company has cautioned shareholders and potential investors that the estimates are preliminary and subject to the final 2025 annual results.
