Class B ( (HK:6608) ) is now available. Bairong Inc. has warned investors that it expects unaudited net profit for 2025 to fall sharply to between RMB66.5 million and RMB79.8 million, a decline of about 70% to 75% from RMB266.0 million a year earlier. The profit squeeze stems largely from a substantial ramp-up in artificial intelligence investment, including talent recruitment, higher data algorithm costs, and expanded spending on IDC data center infrastructure as the Group seeks to bolster its long-term competitiveness. The company also flagged regulatory headwinds after a new notice from China’s National Financial Regulatory Administration prompted some partnering commercial banks to adjust or withdraw certain internet loan facilitation products. This has caused a short-term product shortage for Bairong’s AI silicon-based marketing agents, hit BaaS-Financial Scenario revenue, and forced a readjustment of its product supply structure, leaving shareholders cautioned to trade the stock carefully ahead of full 2025 results due in late March 2026. The most recent analyst rating on (HK:6608) stock is a Buy with a HK$13.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Bairong, Inc.
