oduct portfolio that delivers stable growth and
sustainability.
We now have a diversified portfolio of “

game achieved a significant 10-year milestone this year. Over the past d\
ecade, we have continually integrated
market-leading features into the game ’
s proven framework, sustaining its vitality. “
Lords Mobile ”
has generated
cumulative revenue of nearly HK$35 billion to date, establishing itself \
as a benchmark for longevity in the industry
and solidifying the Group ’
s position as a prominent player in the SLG sector. A decade of dedicate\
d operations has
yielded outstanding results, and we are committed to driving continued s\
uccess over the next ten years for “
Lords

has consistently delivered
solid results. Together with “

aced this trend
early, implementing AI solutions internally a couple of years ago, parti\
cularly across development and operations.
This initiative has yielded significant cost savings and efficiency gain\
s. AI has now evolved into an intelligent
assistant to our staff, broadening perspectives and empowering us to sha\
pe the future together.
Entering 2026, we celebrate our 20th anniversary. Embracing the corporat\
e spirit of “
Innovators at Work, Gamers at
Heart ”
