结论摘要
名创优品上半年收入和经营现金流增长,但Q2出现亏损、调整净利润同比下滑、费用率抬升和海外经营弱化,基本面读数偏负面;不过这不是8月31日的新业绩首发,而是8月28日已发布业绩的SEC 6-K归档,公开报道已指出美股盘前下跌,因此本轮不追做空也不反手做多。
消息传播链
- 公司通过PRNewswire发布2026年二季度及中期业绩,披露Q2亏损、调整利润下滑和上半年收入增长。
- 名创优品IR同日刊载完整新闻稿,确认该业绩为公司官方披露。
- 公司向SEC提交6-K,附件为8月28日已发布的业绩新闻稿、港交所内幕消息公告和中期业绩公告。
- 媒体称MNSO盘前下跌约6.2%,原因是Q2业绩miss、EPS和收入低于预期及海外业务弱化。市场反应:报道时MNSO盘前约下跌6.2%至9.69美元。
关键理由
- 26Q2调整净利润由人民币6.923亿元降至5.286亿元,调整净利率从13.9%降至9.1%,利润质量弱于收入增速。
- 26Q2经营利润从人民币8.362亿元降至1.185亿元,亏损主要由AI投资公允价值损失、销售费用扩张和汇兑损失驱动。
- 量级上,Q2收入约人民币58.1亿元但期内亏损人民币2.9亿元,较去年同期盈利人民币4.9亿元少约7.8亿元,对短期盈利预期构成实质负面;但该信息已在8月28日首发。
主要风险
- 若市场更关注上半年收入增长、经营现金流增长45.5%、回购和股东回报,单纯做空业绩下滑可能被资本回报叙事对冲。
- 本次信号为8月31日SEC归档而非8月28日业绩首发,交易窗口已滞后,price-in风险高。
反向证据
- 做空前查反向 · 来源 web · 日期 2026-08-28 · 影响 weakens
公司同时披露26H1收入同比增长22.4%、经营现金流同比增长45.5%、回购和分红合计人民币13.098亿元,构成做空反证。

先例如何影响了这次决策
对本次决策的影响:先例不足使本轮不提供ENTER;避免在已扩散业绩上追加无价位支撑的做空单。
方向:没有使用可量化先例;本次结论主要由同一业绩已首发、利润质量弱和已出现市场反应决定。
涨幅量级:未取得干净同市场同机制先例和实时行情,不能据此校准tp/sl。
形态:本次更接近已披露业绩的后续法定归档,历史先例对交易幅度帮助有限。

Mr. Guofu Ye, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MINISO,
commented, “Despite a challenging consumer environment in the domestic market during 26H1, we are pleased to see that MINISO Chinese
mainland delivered a standout performance, with revenue growing 26.2% YoY, our fastest first-half growth rate in the past three years,
driven by mid-single-digit SSSG. MINISO overseas markets grew 14.9% YoY, while TOP TOY grew 32.7% YoY."
"Beyond the financial performance, we would
also like to share our progress on proprietary IP and membership operations. YOYO, launched just one year ago, achieved monthly sales
exceeding RMB100 million in both June and July 2026 and completed its first crossover collaboration with a world-class IP, evolving into
an IP asset capable of engaging and co-creating with international IPs on equal footing. Members of MINISO Chinese mainland grew 31.0%
YoY to about 130 million, contributing 77.4% of local sales; in the United States, our members grew 107.1% YoY to about 5.8 million,
contributing 60.1% of local sales. Our membership program highlighted strong user retention, cementing the foundation for sustainable
commercialization and long-term brand equity. On the global front, we celebrated our market entry into Switzerland in 26Q2, extending
our global footprint to accumulative 113 countries and regions, while TOP TOY officially entered the United States and Taiwan, China,
further elevating its global presence.”

“Moving forward, MINISO will keep focusing
on its dual drivers: IP and large-format stores. We aim to unlock deep brand equity via our IP ecosystem and reshape retail experiences
through large-format stores. Guided by long-termism, we balance global expansion with high-quality localization. Powered by operational
resilience, MINISO will create enduring, cycle-defying value for global stakeholders.” Mr. Ye continued.
Mr. Eason Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, "During
26H1, revenue on group level grew by 22.4%. Adjusted operating profit excluding FX grew 5.0% YoY to RMB1,628.6 million. Net cash generated
from operating activities reached RMB1,475.4 million, while adjusted net profit excluding FX was RMB1,221.6 million in the same period,
demonstrating strong resilience and robust operational cash flow generation of our business."
"Our capital allocation initiatives were
highlighted by share repurchase of RMB517.6 million deployed by the Company in 26H1, accounting for more than 90% of full-year repurchase
amount of 2025. Furthermore, in June 2026, the Board approved 2026 share repurchase program of up to HK$2.0 billion, alongside an automatic
share repurchase plan, enabling continued buyback execution even during blackout periods across both Hong Kong and the U.S. markets,
underscoring our disciplined capital deployment, and reaffirmed our unwavering confidence in MINISO Group’s intrinsic value.
We have returned a total of RMB1.31 billion to
shareholders by cash dividends and share repurchases, accounting for 121% of the adjusted net profit for 26H1, which far exceeded the
50% payout ratio per our current dividend policy. Looking ahead, our capital allocation strategy will continue to balance our high-growth
trajectory with our commitment to delivering stable, predictable returns to our shareholders." Mr. Zhang concluded.
Financial Results for 26H1
Revenue
was RMB11,498.9 million (US$1,694.7
million), representing an increase of 22.4% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased by 21.6%
YoY to RMB10,513.2 million (US$1,549.5 million), mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from Chinese mainland, powered
by its mid-single digit SSSG
(1)
, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets, with low-single-digit decline
in same-store GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to 40.9% in the same period last
year.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)
increased
by 32.7% YoY to RMB984.6 million (US$145.1 million).
For more information on the composition and YoY
change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB6,405.2 million (US$944.0
million), representing an increase of 22.3% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB5,093.7 million (US$750.7
million), representing an increase of 22.5% YoY.
3
Gross margin
was 44.3%, flat year over
year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 0.6% from tariff refunds. The Company estimated more benefit in the coming
quarters of about US$4.1 million.
Selling and distribution (“S&D”)
expenses
were RMB3,045.0 million (US$448.8 million), representing an increase of 39.6% YoY. Excluding share-based compensation (“
SBC
”)
expenses, S&D expenses were RMB2,961.5 million (US$436.5 million), representing an increase of 36.7% YoY.
As a percentage of revenue, S&D expenses
excluding SBC stood at 25.8% in 26H1, compared with 23.1% in the same period last year. This 2.7-percentage-point YoY increase was the
main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
The YoY expenses increase as percentages of revenue
were broken down as follows: a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortization and rental expenses for directly-operated stores;
a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; a 0.5-percentage-point increase in licensing expenses, reflecting
the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future growth; and an approximate 0.4-percentage-point
increase in payroll expenses excluding SBC, largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics expenses as a percentage of revenue
remained stable at around 1.7%, flat YoY.
General and administrative expenses
were
RMB590.9 million (US$87.1 million), representing an increase of 17.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general and administrative expenses
were RMB550.8 million (US$81.2 million), representing an increase of 15.5% YoY. The YoY increase was primarily due to the increase in
personnel-related expenses in relation to the growth of the Company’s business.
Other net income
was RMB196.7 million
(US$29.0 million), compared to RMB98.2 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was mainly due to an unrealized mark-to-market
gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its
early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry. This was partially offset by a net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million
(US$21.0 million), compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
increased by 6.1% YoY
to RMB1,639.9 million (US$241.7 million), compared with RMB1,545.9 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 14.3%, compared with
16.5% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating profit
(2)
was
RMB1,486.2 million (US$219.0 million), compared with RMB1,587.4 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
,
it would have been RMB1,628.6 million (US$240.0 million), representing an increase of 5.0% YoY.
Adjusted operating margin
(2)
was
12.9%, compared with 16.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been 14.2%.
Net finance costs
were RMB212.0 million
(US$31.2 million), compared to RMB128.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was mainly attributable to the decrease
in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance costs. The increase in finance costs was
mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the Company’s investment in directly operated stores;
(ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the equity linked securities issued by the Company in 2025 (the “
Equity Linked
Securities
”), and (iii) increased interest expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of
the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co., Ltd * (
永輝超市股份有限公司
)
(“
Yonghui
”). Both (ii) and (iii) are excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
and the increases were
driven by the full-period recognition of interest in 26H1 versus a pro-rated portion in the prior-year period.
4
Share of profit of equity-accounted investees,
net of tax
was RMB57.8 million (US$8.5 million), compared to a share of loss of RMB138.9 million in the same period last year. The
YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company's share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3 million (US$8.9 million), compared
to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui's return to profitability in 26H1, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling
program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in
Yonghui's 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded in the Company's non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
,
as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather than the underlying performance of MINISO’s own business.
Changes in fair value of redemption liabilities
were RMB47.4 million (US$7.0 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with
its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB141.3 million (US$20.8
million), representing a non-cash loss from fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation
to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was 26.2%, compared
to 24.1% in the same period last year.
Adjusted effective tax rate
(2)
was 24.8%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to 18.4% in the same period last year.
The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain subsidiaries of the Company.
Profit for the period
increased 5.6% YoY
to RMB956.6 million (US$141.0 million), compared to RMB906.0 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was primarily attributable
to the following factors: (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) from fair value changes of an
investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million (US$8.9 million) share of profit from its
investment in Yonghui. Such positive contributions were partially offset by the following factors: (i) higher S&D expenses compared
with the prior-year period, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0 million), reversing the net foreign exchange
gain of RMB36.6 million recorded in the same period last year, (iii) increased net finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising
from changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic
financing in 2025.
Net profit margin
was 8.3%, compared to
9.6% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net profit
(2)
was
RMB1,079.1 million (US$159.0 million), compared to RMB1,279.5 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it
would have been RMB1,221.6 million (US$180.0 million), compared to RMB1,242.9 million in the same period last year.
Adjusted net margin
(2)
was
9.4%, compared to 13.6% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been 10.6%, compared to 13.2% in the
same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
increased
by 3.1% YoY to RMB2,255.5 million (US$332.4 million).
5
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.6%, compared to 23.3% in the same period last year.
Basic earnings per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47),
compared to RMB2.96 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 6.8% YoY.
Diluted earnings per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47),
compared to RMB2.92 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 8.2% YoY.
Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per ADS
(2)
were both RMB3.56 (US$0.52), compared to both RMB4.16 in the same period last year.
Cash position
(6)
, which was
the combined balance of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and other investments recorded
as current assets, was RMB7,394.2 million (US$1,089.8 million) as of June 30, 2026, compared to RMB7,087.9 million as of December 31,
2025.
Net cash from operating activities
was RMB1,475.4 million (US$217.4
million) for 26H1, with a cash conversion ratio
(7)
of 1.4. Capital expenditure was RMB724.6 million (US$106.8 million) and
free cash flow was RMB750.8 million (US$110.6 million).
Financial Results for 26Q2
Revenue
was RMB5,810.5 million (US$856.4
million), representing an increase of 17.0% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased by 17.0%
to RMB5,339.8 million (US$787.0 million), driven by (i) an increase of 22.9% in Chinese mainland, and (ii) an increase of 9.1% in overseas
markets.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)
increased
by 16.9% to RMB470.1 million (US$69.3 million).
For more information on the composition and YoY
change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB3,180.9 million (US$468.8
million), representing an increase of 14.9% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB2,629.6 million (US$387.6
million), representing an increase of 19.6% YoY.
Gross margin
was 45.3%, compared to 44.3%
in the same period last year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 1.2% from tariff refunds in 26Q2.
S&D expenses
were RMB1,574.1 million
(US$232.0 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, S&D expenses were RMB1,566.8 million (US$230.9
million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY.
As a percentage of revenue, S&D expenses
excluding SBC stood at 27.0% in 26Q2, compared with 23.2% in the same period last year. This 3.8-percentage-point YoY increase was the
main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX

RMB293.7 million (US$43.3 million), representing an increase of 12.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general and administrative expenses
were RMB286.0 million (US$42.2 million), representing an increase of 13.7% YoY.
6
Other net loss
was RMB625.2 million (US$92.1
million), compared to an income of RMB77.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market
loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its
early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry, and (ii) a net foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million),
compared with a net exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
was RMB118.5 million
(US$17.5 million), compared with RMB836.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating profit was mainly due to (i)
an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership
investing in the AI industry, (ii) increased S&D expenses, and (iii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million),
compared to the net foreign exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 2.0%, compared with
16.8% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating profit
(2)
was
RMB730.7 million (US$107.7 million), compared with RMB852.6 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been
RMB790.6 million (US$116.5 million), representing a decrease of 3.3% YoY.
Adjusted operating margin
(2)
was
12.6%, compared with 17.2% in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been 13.6%, compared to 16.5% in the same period
last year.
Net finance costs
were RMB108.0 million
(US$15.9 million), compared to RMB79.4 million in the same period last year.
Share of loss of equity-accounted investees,
net of tax
was RMB20.4 million (US$3.0 million), compared to RMB136.9 million in the same period last year.
Changes in fair value of redemption liabilities
were RMB25.9 million (US$3.8 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with
its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB90.5 million (US$13.3
million), including a non-cash loss from fair value changes of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation
to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was negative 130.8%,
compared to 21.9% in the same period last year. The negative effective tax rate for 26Q2 was driven by the consolidated pre-tax loss,
which was primarily impacted by share of loss in Yonghui and an unrealized mark-to-market loss from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, while income tax expense was recognized on profitable taxable entities within
MINISO Group.
Adjusted effective tax rate
(2)
was 24.7%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to 16.5% in the same period last year.
The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain subsidiaries of the Company.
Loss for the period
was RMB291.5 million
(US$43.0 million), compared to a profit for the period of RMB489.5 million in the same period last year. The loss for the period was
mainly attributable to (i) the change in operating profit explained above, and (ii) other expenses of RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million),
compared to other gain of RMB6.7 million in the same period last year, partially offset by the decrease in share of loss in Yonghui.
7
Net loss margin
was 5.0%, compared with
a net profit margin of 9.9% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net profit
(2)
was
RMB528.6 million (US$77.9 million), compared to RMB692.3 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would
have been RMB588.4 million (US$86.7 million), compared to RMB657.3 million in the same period last year.
Adjusted net margin
(2)
was
9.1%, compared to 13.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been 10.1%, compared to 13.2% in the
same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
was RMB1,149.8
million (US$169.5 million), flat YoY.
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.8%, compared to 23.2% in the same period last year.
Basic and diluted loss per ADS
were both
RMB0.96 (US$0.14), compared to both basic and diluted earnings per ADS of RMB1.60 in the same period last year.
Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per ADS
(2)
were both RMB1.76 (US$0.26), compared to RMB2.24 in the same period last year.
Net cash from operating activities
was RMB1,110.2 million (US$163.6
million) for 26Q2, with a cash conversion ratio
(7)
of 2.1. Capital expenditure was RMB454.0 million (US$66.9 million) and

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 June 30, 2026, which was RMB6.7851 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 core business 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses
and (ii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value change
of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax,
(vi) changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, and (vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of
an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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. Starting
from March quarter 2026, to more accurately reflect the Company’s core business performance, the Company has adopted revised definitions
of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership investing in the AI industry from the calculation of these items. The Company recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand,
and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI
industry for the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the
Company has retrospectively adjusted its non-IFRS financial measures for prior periods.
MINISO presents these non-IFRS financial measures
because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business plans. These non-IFRS financial
measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned non-cash and
other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business 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 core business. 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.
10
These non-IFRS financial measures should not
be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to operating profit, operating margin, effective tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s historical non-IFRS financial
measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

Mr. Guofu
Ye, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MINISO, commented, “Despite a challenging consumer environment in the domestic market during 26H1,
we are pleased to see that MINISO Chinese mainland delivered a standout performance, with revenue growing 26.2% YoY, our fastest first-half
growth rate in the past three years, driven by mid-single-digit SSSG. MINISO overseas markets grew 14.9% YoY, while TOP TOY grew 32.7%
YoY.”
“Beyond
the financial performance, we would also like to share our progress on proprietary IP and membership operations. YOYO, launched just
one year ago, achieved monthly sales exceeding RMB100 million in both June and July 2026 and completed its first crossover
collaboration with a world-class IP, evolving into an IP asset capable of engaging and co-creating with international IPs on equal
footing. Members of MINISO Chinese mainland grew 31.0% YoY to about 130 million, contributing 77.4% of local sales; in the United
States, our members grew 107.1% YoY to about 5.8 million, contributing 60.1% of local sales. Our membership program highlighted
strong user retention, cementing the foundation for sustainable commercialization and long-term brand equity. On the global front,
we celebrated our market entry into Switzerland in 26Q2, extending our global footprint to accumulative 113 countries and regions,
while TOP TOY officially entered the United States and Taiwan, China, further elevating its global presence.”
“Moving forward,
MINISO will keep focusing on its dual drivers: IP and large-format stores. We aim to unlock deep brand equity via our IP ecosystem and
reshape retail experiences through large-format stores. Guided by long-termism, we balance global expansion with high-quality localization.
Powered by operational resilience, MINISO will create enduring, cycle-defying value for global stakeholders.” Mr. Ye continued.
Mr. Eason
Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, “During 26H1, revenue on group level grew by 22.4%. Adjusted operating profit excluding FX grew
5.0% YoY to RMB1,628.6 million. Net cash generated from operating activities reached RMB1,475.4 million, while adjusted net profit excluding
FX was RMB1,221.6 million in the same period, demonstrating strong resilience and robust operational cash flow generation of our business.”
“Our capital
allocation initiatives were highlighted by share repurchase of RMB517.6 million deployed by the Company in 26H1, accounting for more
than 90% of full-year repurchase amount of 2025. Furthermore, in June 2026, the Board approved 2026 share repurchase program of
up to HK$2.0 billion, alongside an automatic share repurchase plan, enabling continued buyback execution even during blackout periods
across both Hong Kong and the U.S. markets, underscoring our disciplined capital deployment, and reaffirmed our unwavering confidence
in MINISO Group’s intrinsic value.
We have returned
a total of RMB1.31 billion to shareholders by cash dividends and share repurchases, accounting for 121% of the adjusted net profit for
26H1, which far exceeded the 50% payout ratio per our current dividend policy. Looking ahead, our capital allocation strategy will continue
to balance our high-growth trajectory with our commitment to delivering stable, predictable returns to our shareholders.” Mr. Zhang
concluded.

Financial Results
for 26H1
Revenue
was
RMB11,498.9 million (US$1,694.7 million), representing an increase of 22.4% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO
brand increased by 21.6% YoY to RMB10,513.2 million (US$1,549.5 million), mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from
Chinese mainland, powered by its mid-single digit SSSG
(1)
, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets,
with low-single-digit decline in same-store GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to
40.9% in the same period last year.
Revenue from TOP
TOY brand
(5)
increased by 32.7% YoY to RMB984.6 million (US$145.1 million).
For more information
on the composition and YoY change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB6,405.2 million (US$944.0 million), representing an increase of 22.3% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB5,093.7 million (US$750.7 million), representing an increase of 22.5% YoY.
Gross margin
was 44.3%, flat year over year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 0.6% from tariff refunds. The Company estimated
more benefit in the coming quarters of about US$4.1 million.
Selling and
distribution (“S&D”) expenses
were RMB3,045.0 million (US$448.8 million), representing an increase of 39.6% YoY.
Excluding share-based compensation (“
SBC
”) expenses, S&D expenses were RMB2,961.5 million (US$436.5 million),
representing an increase of 36.7% YoY.
As a percentage
of revenue, S&D expenses excluding SBC stood at 25.8% in 26H1, compared with 23.1% in the same period last year. This 2.7-percentage-point
YoY increase was the main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
The YoY expenses
increase as percentages of revenue were broken down as follows: a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortization and rental
expenses for directly-operated stores; a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; a 0.5-percentage-point increase
in licensing expenses, reflecting the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future growth;
and an approximate 0.4-percentage-point increase in payroll expenses excluding SBC, largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics
expenses as a percentage of revenue remained stable at around 1.7%, flat YoY.
6
General and
administrative expenses
were RMB590.9 million (US$87.1 million), representing an increase of 17.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general
and administrative expenses were RMB550.8 million (US$81.2 million), representing an increase of 15.5% YoY. The YoY increase was primarily
due to the increase in personnel-related expenses in relation to the growth of the Company’s business.
Other net income
was RMB196.7 million (US$29.0 million), compared to RMB98.2 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was mainly due
to an unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership, reflecting its early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry. This was partially offset by a net foreign exchange
loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0 million), compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
increased by 6.1% YoY to RMB1,639.9 million (US$241.7 million), compared with RMB1,545.9 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 14.3%, compared with 16.5% in the same period last year.
Adjusted
operating profit
(2) was RMB1,486.2 million (US$219.0 million), compared with RMB1,587.4 million in the same period last year.
If excluding FX(3), it would have been RMB1,628.6 million (US$240.0 million), representing an increase of 5.0% YoY.
Adjusted operating
margin
(2) was 12.9%, compared with 16.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX(3), it would have been 14.2%.
Net finance
costs
were RMB212.0 million (US$31.2 million), compared to RMB128.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was
mainly attributable to the decrease in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance
costs. The increase in finance costs was mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the
Company’s investment in directly operated stores; (ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the equity linked
securities issued by the Company in 2025 (the “
Equity Linked Securities
”), and (iii) increased interest
expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co.,
Ltd (永輝超市股份有限公司) (“
Yonghui
”). Both
(ii) and (iii) are excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2) and the increases
were driven by the
full-period recognition of interest in 26H1 versus a pro-rated portion in the prior-year period.
Share of profit
of equity-accounted investees, net of tax
was RMB57.8 million (US$8.5 million), compared to a share of loss of RMB138.9 million in
the same period last year. The YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company’s share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3
million (US$8.9 million), compared to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui’s return to profitability
in 26H1, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin
and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in Yonghui’s 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded
in the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
, as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather
than the underlying performance of MINISO’s own business.
7
Changes in fair
value of redemption liabilities
were RMB47.4 million (US$7.0 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued
by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB141.3 million (US$20.8 million), representing a non-cash loss from fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market
impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was 26.2%,
compared to 24.1% in the same period last year.
Adjusted effective
tax rate
(2)
was 24.8%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to
18.4% in the same period last year. The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain
subsidiaries of the Company.
Profit for the
period
increased 5.6% YoY to RMB956.6 million (US$141.0 million), compared to RMB906.0 million in the same period last year. The
YoY increase was primarily attributable to the following factors: (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9
million) from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million
(US$8.9 million) share of profit from its investment in Yonghui. Such positive contributions were partially offset by the following factors:
(i) higher S&D expenses compared with the prior-year period, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0
million), reversing the net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million recorded in the same period last year, (iii) increased net
finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising from changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred
shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025.
Net profit margin
was 8.3%, compared
to 9.6% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net
profit
(2)
was RMB1,079.1 million (US$159.0 million), compared to RMB1,279.5 million in the same period last year.
If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been RMB1,221.6 million (US$180.0 million), compared to RMB1,242.9 million in the same period
last year.
Adjusted net
margin
(2)
was 9.4%, compared to 13.6% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have
been 10.6%, compared to 13.2% in the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
increased
by 3.1% YoY to RMB2,255.5 million (US$332.4 million).
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.6%, compared to 23.3% in the same period last year.
Basic earnings
per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47), compared to RMB2.96 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 6.8% YoY.
Diluted earnings
per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47), compared to RMB2.92 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 8.2% YoY.
8

recorded as current assets, was RMB7,394.2 million (US$1,089.8 million) as of June 30, 2026, compared to RMB7,087.9 million as of
December 31, 2025.

(7)
of 1.4.

Financial Results for 26Q2

was RMB5,810.5 million
(US$856.4 million), representing an increase of 17.0% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO
brand increased by 17.0% to RMB5,339.8 million (US$787.0 million), driven by (i) an increase of 22.9% in Chinese mainland, and (ii) an
increase of 9.1% in overseas markets.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)
increased
by 16.9% to RMB470.1 million (US$69.3 million).

was RMB3,180.9 million (US$468.8 million), representing an increase of 14.9% YoY.

was RMB2,629.6 million
(US$387.6 million), representing an increase of 19.6% YoY.

refunds in 26Q2.
S&D expenses
were RMB1,574.1 million (US$232.0 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, S&D expenses were
RMB1,566.8 million (US$230.9 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY.
As a percentage
of revenue, S&D expenses excluding SBC stood at 27.0% in 26Q2, compared with 23.2% in the same period last year. This 3.8-percentage-point
YoY increase was the main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
General and
administrative expenses
were RMB293.7 million (US$43.3 million), representing an increase of 12.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general
and administrative expenses were RMB286.0 million (US$42.2 million), representing an increase of 13.7% YoY.
Other net loss
was RMB625.2 million (US$92.1 million), compared to an income of RMB77.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was
mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) arising from fair value changes of an
investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry, and (ii) a net
foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million), compared with a net exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last
year.
9
Operating profit
was RMB118.5 million (US$17.5 million), compared with RMB836.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating profit
was mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, (ii) increased S&D expenses, and (iii) net foreign exchange loss
of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million), compared to the net foreign exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 2.0%, compared with 16.8% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating
profit
(2)
was RMB730.7 million (US$107.7 million), compared with RMB852.6 million in the same period last year. If
excluding FX, it would have been RMB790.6 million (US$116.5 million), representing a decrease of 3.3% YoY.
Adjusted operating
margin
(2)
was 12.6%, compared with 17.2% in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been 13.6%,
compared to 16.5% in the same period last year.
Net finance
costs
were RMB108.0 million (US$15.9 million), compared to RMB79.4 million in the same period last year.
Share of loss
of equity-accounted investees, net of tax
was RMB20.4 million (US$3.0 million), compared to RMB136.9 million in the same period last
year.
Changes in fair
value of redemption liabilities
were RMB25.9 million (US$3.8 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued
by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million), including a non-cash loss from fair value changes of certain derivative under mark-to-market
impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax
rate
was negative 130.8%, compared to 21.9% in the same period last year. The negative effective tax rate for 26Q2 was driven by
the consolidated pre-tax loss, which was primarily impacted by share of loss in Yonghui and an unrealized mark-to-market loss from fair
value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, while income tax expense was recognized on profitable
taxable entities within MINISO Group.
Adjusted effective
tax rate
(2)
was 24.7%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to
16.5% in the same period last year. The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain
subsidiaries of the Company.
Loss for the
period
was RMB291.5 million (US$43.0 million), compared to a profit for the period of RMB489.5 million in the same period last year.
The loss for the period was mainly attributable to (i) the change in operating profit explained above, and (ii) other expenses
of RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million), compared to other gain of RMB6.7 million in the same period last year, partially offset by the
decrease in share of loss in Yonghui.

Adjusted net
margin
(2)

been 10.1%, compared to 13.2% in the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA

was
RMB1,149.8 million (US$169.5 million), flat YoY.
Adjusted EBITDA margin

in accordance with IFRS. MINISO defines adjusted operating profit as operating profit for the period excluding (i) equity-settled
share-based payment expenses and (ii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in
the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain
or loss from fair value change of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) share
of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, (vi) changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, and
(vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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. Starting from March quarter 2026, to more accurately reflect
the Company’s core business performance, the Company has adopted revised definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted
net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry from
the calculation of these items. The Company recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand, and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million
from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry for the three months ended March 31,
June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the Company has retrospectively adjusted
its non-IFRS financial measures for prior periods.

MINISO presents
these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business
plans. These non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of
the aforementioned non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business 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 core business. 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 operating profit, operating margin, effective
tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s
historical non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

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, and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per Share
and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per American Depositary Share (the “
ADS
”) as supplemental measures to
review and assess its core business 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses and (ii) gain
or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value change of derivatives,
(iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) interest expenses related to the equity linked securities issued by the Company in
January 2025 (the “
Equity Linked Securities
”) and interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition
of the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co., Ltd (
永輝超市股份有限公司)
(“
Yonghui
”), (v) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, (vi) changes in fair value of redemption
liabilities arising from preferred shares, and (vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership
investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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 Share by dividing adjusted net profit attributable to the equity shareholders
of the Company by the number of Shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per Share calculation on an IFRS basis. MINISO computes
adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS in the same way as it calculates adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per Share, except
that it uses the number of ADSs used in the basic and diluted earnings per ADS calculation on an IFRS basis as the denominator instead
of the number of Shares. Starting from the first quarter of 2026, to more accurately reflect the Company’s core business performance,
the Company has adopted revised definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair
value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry from the calculation of these items. The Company
recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand, and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry for the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and
December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the Company has retrospectively adjusted its non-IFRS financial measures
for prior periods.
2
MINISO presents these non-IFRS
financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business plans. These
non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned
non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business results in the same manner as the management and the Board.
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 core business. 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 operating profit, operating margin, effective tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s historical
non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

The Retail Partner model represents
a mutually beneficial relationship between us and our Retail Partners, where we achieve rapid store network expansion with consistent

that invested in MINISO stores in Chinese mainland, and 656 of them had invested for over three years. We had one distributor for the

market conditions and their operational needs, our overseas franchisees may sometimes convert from a Retail Partner to a distributor,

Revenue
Our total revenue was RMB11,498.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB9,393.1 million), representing an
increase of 22.4% year over year.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased
by 21.6% to RMB10,513.2 million, mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from Chinese mainland, powered by its mid-single
digit same-store GMV growth, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets, with low-single-digit decline in same-store
GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to 40.9% for the six months ended June 30,
2025.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand increased by 32.7% year
over year to RMB984.6 million.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales was RMB6,405.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB5,236.2 million), representing an
increase of 22.3% year over year.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Our gross profit was RMB5,093.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB4,156.9 million), representing an
increase of 22.5% year over year, and gross margin was 44.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30,
2025: 44.3%).
Selling and Distribution Expenses
Our selling and distribution
expenses were RMB3,045.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,181.0
million), representing an increase of 39.6% year over year. Excluding equity-based compensation expenses, our selling and distribution
expenses were RMB2,961.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,167.1
million), representing an increase of 36.7% year over year.
The YoY expenses increase as
percentages of revenue was broken down as follows: (i) a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortisation and rental expenses
for directly-operated stores; (ii) a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; (iii) a 0.5-percentage-point
increase in licensing expenses, reflecting the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future
growth; and (iv) an approximate 0.4-percentage-point increase in payroll expenses excluding equity-based compensation expenses,
largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics expenses as a percentage of revenue remained stable at around 1.7%, flat year
over year.
17
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative
expenses were RMB590.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB503.7 million),
representing an increase of 17.3% year over year. Excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses, our general and administrative
expenses were RMB550.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB477.0 million),
representing an increase of 15.5% year over year, which were primarily attributable to the increase in personnel-related expenses in
relation to the growth of our business.
Other Net Income
Our other net income was RMB196.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB98.2 million). The YoY increase
was mainly due to an unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership investing in the AI industry, which was partially offset by a net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million, compared to
a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Operating Profit
As a result of the foregoing,
we recorded operating profit of RMB1,639.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, (for the six months ended June 30,
2025: RMB1,545.9 million).
Net Finance Costs
Our net finance costs were RMB212.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB128.4 million). The YoY increase
was mainly attributable to the decrease in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance
costs. The increase in finance costs was mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the Company’s
investment in directly operated stores; (ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the Equity Linked Securities, and (iii) increased
interest expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui.
Changes in Fair Value of Redemption Liabilities
Our changes in fair value of
redemption liabilities was RMB47.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025:
nil), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded income tax expense
of RMB340.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB288.2 million).
18
Share of Profit/(Loss) of Equity-Accounted Investees,
Net of Tax
Our share of profit of equity-accounted
investees, net of tax was RMB57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: share
of loss of RMB138.9 million). The YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company’s share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3
million, compared to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui’s return to profitability during the first
half of 2026, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin
and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in Yonghui’s 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded
in the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures, as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather than the underlying
performance of MINISO’s own business.
Other Expenses
Our other expenses were RMB141.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB84.4 million), mainly attributable
to loss from a fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities.
Profit for the Period
We recorded a profit of RMB956.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB906.0 million). The YoY increase
was primarily attributable to (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million share of profit from our investment in Yonghui.
Such positive contributions were partially offset by
(i) higher selling and distribution
expenses, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million, reversing the net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million recorded
for the six months ended June 30, 2025, (iii) increased net finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising from
changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing
in 2025.
Adjusted Net Profit
(a non-IFRS measure)
We recorded an adjusted net profit
of RMB1,079.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB1,279.5 million) which
represents profit for the period excluding (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value
change of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) changes in fair value of
redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, (vi) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, and (vii) gain or
loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry.
Adjusted
EBITDA
(a non-IFRS measure)
We recorded an adjusted EBITDA
of RMB2,255.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,187.6 million),
which represents adjusted net profit plus (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) income tax expense.
19
Net Cash from Operating Activities
and Free Cash Flow
For the six months ended June 30,
2026, our net cash from operating activities was RMB1,475.4 million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB1,014.2 million),
capital expenditure was RMB724.6 million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB434.8 million) and free cash flow was RMB750.8
million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB579.4 million).
Current Ratio
Our current ratio decreased from
1.9 as of June 30, 2025 to 1.6 as of June 30, 2026, primarily due to the increase in trade payables related to our inventories,
short-term loans and borrowings, redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares related to TOP TOY’s strategic financing,
and lease liabilities relating to directly operated stores.
20
OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Liquidity and Source of Funding
During the six months ended June 30,
2026, we funded our cash requirements principally through cash generated from our operations. As of June 30, 2026, our cash, cash
equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits, and other investments recorded in current assets were RMB7,394.2 million (as of December 31,
2025: RMB7,087.9 million).
Material Acquisitions and Disposals
We did not have any material
acquisitions or disposals of subsidiaries, consolidated affiliated entities or associated companies during the six months ended June 30,
2026.
Significant Investments
In September 2024, our Company
acquired an aggregate of 2,668,135,376 shares in Yonghui (representing approximately 29.4% of its entire issued share capital at the
time of the acquisition) (the “
Yonghui Acquisition
”). Yonghui, a listed company on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock
code: 601933), is a retail chain operator featuring fresh produce management, mainly operates hypermarkets, supermarkets and community
supermarkets, and has approximately 403 outlets spanning across about 24 provinces and municipalities across the Chinese mainland as
of December 31, 2025. The Yonghui Acquisition was approved by our shareholders at our extraordinary general meeting held on January 17,
2025, and was completed in the first quarter of 2025. For details, please refer to our announcement dated September 23, 2024 and
our circular dated November 22, 2024.
Our equity interest in Yonghui
has been accounted for as investments in associates using the equity method in our consolidated financial statements since its completion.
As of December 31, 2025, we continued to hold approximately 29.4% of the issued share capital of Yonghui. For the six months ended
June 30, 2026, we recorded a gain of RMB60.3 million for the investment in Yonghui. As we continue to be optimistic about the development
of the offline retail industry in Chinese mainland, we believe that the investment in Yonghui is in line with the Group’s investment
strategy.
Save as disclosed above, we did
not make or hold any other significant investments during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Future Plans for Material Investments or Capital
Assets
As of June 30, 2026, we
did not have detailed future plans for material investments or capital assets.
21
Pledge of Assets
As of June 30, 2026, our
equity interests in equity-accounted investees of approximately RMB3,866.2 million were pledged as securities for obtaining banking borrowings,
an industry common practice for borrowings used for acquisitions.
As of June 30, 2026, our
land use rights for the headquarters building with a carrying amount of approximately RMB1,571.0 million were pledged as collateral for
obtaining banking borrowings, an industry common practice for project financing.
Cash Management Policy
We believe we can make better
use of our cash by making appropriate investments in short-term investment products, which generate income without interfering with our
business operation or capital expenditures. Our investment decisions with respect to financial products are made on a case-by-case basis
and after due and careful consideration of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market conditions, the economic developments,
the anticipated investment conditions, the investment cost, the duration of the investment and the expected benefit and potential loss
of the investment. We have established a set of internal control measures which allow us to achieve reasonable returns on our investment
while mitigating our exposure to high investment risks. These policies and measures were formulated by our senior management.
In order to make full use of
idle funds, improve the utilization rate of surplus funds, and increase our income, under the premise of not affecting our normal business
activities, subject to approval from our chief financial officer, we may purchase a certain amount of wealth management products from
financial institutions. According to our internal policies, the manager of our treasury department should make proposals to invest in
wealth management products to our chief financial officer and such proposals must be reviewed and approved by our chief financial officer.
In assessing a proposal to invest in wealth management products, a number of criteria must be met, including but not limited to the following:
·
the
purchase of wealth management products is limited to low-risk products such as term deposits,
principal-guaranteed and interest-paying products, treasury notes issued by banks, and wealth
management products with risk level below R2. The purchase of high-risk financial instruments
such as securities and futures is strictly prohibited.
·
the
expected return of the purchased wealth management products should be not lower than bank’s
deposit interest rate for term deposits of the same period, the product structure should
be relatively simple, and the purchases should be made from financial institutions with large
operation scale, overall strength and good credit standing.
·
the
treasury department is responsible for setting up a detailed ledger for wealth management
products, the manager of the treasury department manages the financial products, and tracks
the progress and safety of wealth management products. In the event of an abnormal situation,
the manager of the treasury department should report the situation to the chief financial
officer in a timely manner so that we can take effective measures immediately to reduce potential
losses.
22
Gearing Ratio
As of June 30, 2026, our
gearing ratio was 82.9%, calculated as loans and borrowings divided by total equity as of the end of the period and multiplied by 100%.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Our financial reporting currency
is RMB and changes in foreign exchange rates can significantly affect our reported results and consolidated trends. In addition, our
results of operations, including margins, are affected by the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates. Our international operations generate
revenues primarily in U.S. dollars. Generally, a weakening of RMB against U.S. dollar has a positive effect on our results of operations,
while a strengthening of RMB against U.S. dollar has the opposite effect. We have not used any derivative financial instruments to hedge
exposure to such risk. To the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for our operations, appreciation of RMB against U.S.
dollar would have an adverse effect on RMB amount we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert RMB into U.S. dollars
for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of U.S.
dollar against RMB would have a negative effect on U.S. dollar amounts available to us.
Contingent Liabilities
Securities class action
In
August 2022, a putative federal securities class action was filed against us and certain of its officers and Directors (“
Defendants
”),
alleging that Defendants made misleading misstatements or omissions regarding our business operations and financials in violation of
the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The action is captioned
In re MINISO Group Holding Limited Securities
Litigation
, 1:22-cv-09864 (S.D.N.Y.). Lead plaintiff was appointed in November 2022 and filed the operative complaint
to the court. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, and the motion was granted by the court in February 2024, with
leave to amend. Plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the court’s decision, which was rejected by the court. Plaintiffs
filed a further amended complaint on April 30, 2025. We and other defendants filed a motion to dismiss that complaint, which was
granted by the court on March 31, 2026, with prejudice. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal. Briefing for the appeal, pending
before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, is ongoing. As this case remains in its preliminary stage, as of June 30,
2026, the Directors were currently unable to predict the timing, outcome, potential damages or loss, if any, associated with the resolution
of it.
23
Capital Commitment
As of June 30, 2026, our
capital commitment was RMB170.5 million, compared to RMB630.9 million as of June 30, 2025, which was mainly attributable to the
construction of the headquarters building.
Employees and Remuneration
We had a total of 8,519 full-time
employees as of June 30, 2026, including 3,198 in Chinese mainland and 5,321 in certain overseas countries and regions, up from
7,204 full-time employees as of June 30, 2025. The following table sets forth the number of our employees categorized by function

2025.
The number of employees employed
by us varies from time to time depending on needs and employees are remunerated based on industry practice. The remuneration policy and
package of the Group’s employees are periodically reviewed. Apart from pension funds and in-house training programs, discretionary
bonuses, share awards and share options from our share incentive plan may be awarded to employees according to the assessment of individual
performance.
24
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Board is committed to achieving
high corporate governance standards. The Board believes that high corporate governance standards are essential in providing a framework
for us to safeguard the interests of shareholders and to enhance corporate value and accountability.
Compliance with the Corporate
Governance Code
We have complied with all the
applicable code provisions of the Corporate Governance Code (the “
Corporate Governance Code
”) set forth in Part 2
of Appendix C1 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the “
Listing Rules
”) on the Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited (the “
HKEX
”) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, save for the following.
Code provision C.2.1 of the Corporate
Governance Code recommends, but does not require, that the roles of chairman of the Board and chief executive officer should be separate
and should not be performed by the same individual.
We deviate from this code provision
as we do not have a separate chairman and chief executive officer and Mr. Ye Guofu (“
Mr. Ye
”) currently
performs these two roles of the Company. Mr. Ye is our founder and has extensive experience in our business operations and management.
The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairperson and chief executive officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring
consistent leadership within our Group and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for our Group. The Board considers
that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable our Company to
make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. The Board will continue to review and consider splitting the roles of chairman
of the Board and the chief executive officer of our Company if and when it is appropriate taking into account the circumstances of the
Group as a whole.
Compliance with the Model
Code for Securities Transactions by Directors
We have adopted the Management
Trading of Securities Policy (the “
Code
”), with terms no less exacting than the Model Code for Securities Transactions
by Directors of Listed Issuers as set out in Appendix C3 to the Listing Rules, as its own securities dealing code to regulate all dealings
by Directors and relevant employees of securities in the Company and other matters covered by the Code.
Specific enquiry has been made
of all the Directors and each of the Directors has confirmed that he/she has complied with the Code during the six months ended June 30,
2026.
25
Audit Committee
We have established an Audit
Committee in compliance with Rule 3.21 of the Listing Rules and the Corporate Governance Code.
The Audit Committee comprises
three independent non-executive Directors, namely Ms. XU Lili, Mr. ZHU Yonghua and Mr. WANG Yongping. Ms. XU Lili,
being the chairwoman of the Audit Committee, is appropriately qualified as required under Rule 3.10(2) of the Listing Rules.
The primary duties of the Audit
Committee are:
(a)
to
monitor the integrity of our financial statements and our compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements as they relate to our financial statements and accounting matters;
(b)
to review the adequacy of our
internal control over financial reporting; and
(c)
to
review all related party transactions for potential conflict of interest situations and approve
all such transactions.
The Audit Committee has reviewed
our unaudited interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Audit Committee has also discussed matters
with respect to the accounting policies and practices adopted by us and internal control and financial reporting matters with our senior
management members.
In addition, our independent
auditor, Ernst & Young, has reviewed our unaudited interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2026
in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity” as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
26
OTHER INFORMATION
Dividend Policy
On March 31, 2026, the Board
has approved the amendment of the dividend policy adopted by the Company to amend the definition of adjusted net profit under the dividend
policy, pursuant to which the Company could declare and distribute dividends in an amount equal to approximately 50% of the adjusted
net profit (a non-IFRS measure defined as profit for the period after excluding certain items as determined by the management such as
share-based payments, non-cash charges, non-operating items and non-recurring items) each year, with the exact calculation and amount
to be determined and announced by the Board from time to time based on the Company’s financial performance and cash position prior

Save as disclosed above, neither

NYSE (including sale of treasury shares as defined under the Listing Rules) during the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company
did not hold any treasury shares (as defined under the Listing Rules) as of June 30, 2026.
Use of Proceeds from Equity
Linked Securities
In January 2025, we entered
into a subscription agreement with UBS AG Hong Kong Branch and The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited for the issuance
of Equity Linked Securities, which were convertible debt securities that shall be settled wholly in cash, with an aggregate principal
amount of US$550,000,000 and an expected maturity date on January 14, 2032. Further, we and UBS AG, London Branch and The Hongkong
and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited entered into a call spread (the “
Call Spread
”), which was separate from,
but is part and parcel of the Equity Linked Securities.
The Equity Linked Securities
were issued to raise funds in order to further grow the Company and its operations and to finance the Company’s share repurchase
programs. The Call Spread is generally expected to reduce potential dilution to the Shares and offset cash payments that the Company
will be required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Equity Linked Securities upon exercise of the Equity Linked Securities.
This would give the Company greater financial flexibility and reduce the risk exposure of the Company to market fluctuations during the
tenor of the Equity Linked Securities to a pre-determined range.
We raised total net proceeds
of US$457,079,647 (equivalent to HK$3,553,839,963) from the offering and sale of the Equity Linked Securities and the Call Spread, after
deducting fees, commissions, expenses, and net cost of entry into the Call Spread.
The initial exercise price of
the Equity Linked Securities was US$8.2822 per Share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain customary prescribed corporate
actions. As a result of the distribution of the final cash dividend for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “
2024
Final Dividend
”), the interim cash dividend for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (the “
2025 Interim Dividend
”)
and the final cash dividend for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “
2025 Final Dividend
”), the Equity
Linked Securities exercise price was adjusted from US$8.2822 per Share to US$8.1516 per Share with effect from April 9, 2025, being
the date immediately after the record date of the 2024 Final Dividend, and to US$8.0314 per Share with effect from September 6,
2025, being the date immediately after the record date of the 2025 Interim Dividend, and further to US$7.8525 per Share with effect from
April 21, 2026, being the date immediately after the record date of the 2025 Final Dividend.
28
The Company expects to fully utilize the residual amount of the net
proceeds in accordance with such intended purposes within 36 months from January 14, 2025, the date of completion of the issuance
of the Equity Linked Securities.
For further details, please refer
to the announcements of the Company dated January 7, 2025 and January 14, 2025 in relation to the issuance of the Equity Linked
Securities and the entering into of the Call Spread by our Company and the announcements dated April 24, 2025, August 29, 2025
and April 21, 2026 for the relevant adjustments made pursuant to the 2024 Final Dividend, 2025 Interim Dividend and 2025 Final Dividend,
respectively.
As of June 30, 2025, December 31,

Dividend
On March 31, 2026, the Board
approved the distribution of a final cash dividend in the amount of US$0.3764 per ADS or US$0.0941 per Share, which has been paid on
April 29, 2026 for holders of Shares and May 4, 2026 for holders of ADSs. The aggregate amount of cash dividend paid was approximately
US$114.5 million (RMB792.2 million at an exchange rate of RMB6.9194 to US$1.0000).
The Board did not recommend the
distribution of an interim dividend for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Mr. Guofu Ye, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MINISO,
commented, “Despite a challenging consumer environment in the domestic market during 26H1, we are pleased to see that MINISO Chinese
mainland delivered a standout performance, with revenue growing 26.2% YoY, our fastest first-half growth rate in the past three years,
driven by mid-single-digit SSSG. MINISO overseas markets grew 14.9% YoY, while TOP TOY grew 32.7% YoY."
"Beyond the financial performance, we would
also like to share our progress on proprietary IP and membership operations. YOYO, launched just one year ago, achieved monthly sales
exceeding RMB100 million in both June and July 2026 and completed its first crossover collaboration with a world-class IP, evolving into
an IP asset capable of engaging and co-creating with international IPs on equal footing. Members of MINISO Chinese mainland grew 31.0%
YoY to about 130 million, contributing 77.4% of local sales; in the United States, our members grew 107.1% YoY to about 5.8 million,
contributing 60.1% of local sales. Our membership program highlighted strong user retention, cementing the foundation for sustainable
commercialization and long-term brand equity. On the global front, we celebrated our market entry into Switzerland in 26Q2, extending
our global footprint to accumulative 113 countries and regions, while TOP TOY officially entered the United States and Taiwan, China,
further elevating its global presence.”

“Moving forward, MINISO will keep focusing
on its dual drivers: IP and large-format stores. We aim to unlock deep brand equity via our IP ecosystem and reshape retail experiences
through large-format stores. Guided by long-termism, we balance global expansion with high-quality localization. Powered by operational
resilience, MINISO will create enduring, cycle-defying value for global stakeholders.” Mr. Ye continued.
Mr. Eason Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, "During
26H1, revenue on group level grew by 22.4%. Adjusted operating profit excluding FX grew 5.0% YoY to RMB1,628.6 million. Net cash generated
from operating activities reached RMB1,475.4 million, while adjusted net profit excluding FX was RMB1,221.6 million in the same period,
demonstrating strong resilience and robust operational cash flow generation of our business."
"Our capital allocation initiatives were
highlighted by share repurchase of RMB517.6 million deployed by the Company in 26H1, accounting for more than 90% of full-year repurchase
amount of 2025. Furthermore, in June 2026, the Board approved 2026 share repurchase program of up to HK$2.0 billion, alongside an automatic
share repurchase plan, enabling continued buyback execution even during blackout periods across both Hong Kong and the U.S. markets,
underscoring our disciplined capital deployment, and reaffirmed our unwavering confidence in MINISO Group’s intrinsic value.
We have returned a total of RMB1.31 billion to
shareholders by cash dividends and share repurchases, accounting for 121% of the adjusted net profit for 26H1, which far exceeded the
50% payout ratio per our current dividend policy. Looking ahead, our capital allocation strategy will continue to balance our high-growth
trajectory with our commitment to delivering stable, predictable returns to our shareholders." Mr. Zhang concluded.
Financial Results for 26H1
Revenue
was RMB11,498.9 million (US$1,694.7
million), representing an increase of 22.4% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased by 21.6%
YoY to RMB10,513.2 million (US$1,549.5 million), mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from Chinese mainland, powered
by its mid-single digit SSSG
(1)
, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets, with low-single-digit decline
in same-store GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to 40.9% in the same period last
year.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)
increased
by 32.7% YoY to RMB984.6 million (US$145.1 million).
For more information on the composition and YoY
change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB6,405.2 million (US$944.0
million), representing an increase of 22.3% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB5,093.7 million (US$750.7
million), representing an increase of 22.5% YoY.
3
Gross margin
was 44.3%, flat year over
year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 0.6% from tariff refunds. The Company estimated more benefit in the coming
quarters of about US$4.1 million.
Selling and distribution (“S&D”)
expenses
were RMB3,045.0 million (US$448.8 million), representing an increase of 39.6% YoY. Excluding share-based compensation (“
SBC
”)
expenses, S&D expenses were RMB2,961.5 million (US$436.5 million), representing an increase of 36.7% YoY.
As a percentage of revenue, S&D expenses
excluding SBC stood at 25.8% in 26H1, compared with 23.1% in the same period last year. This 2.7-percentage-point YoY increase was the
main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
The YoY expenses increase as percentages of revenue
were broken down as follows: a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortization and rental expenses for directly-operated stores;
a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; a 0.5-percentage-point increase in licensing expenses, reflecting
the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future growth; and an approximate 0.4-percentage-point
increase in payroll expenses excluding SBC, largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics expenses as a percentage of revenue
remained stable at around 1.7%, flat YoY.
General and administrative expenses
were
RMB590.9 million (US$87.1 million), representing an increase of 17.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general and administrative expenses
were RMB550.8 million (US$81.2 million), representing an increase of 15.5% YoY. The YoY increase was primarily due to the increase in
personnel-related expenses in relation to the growth of the Company’s business.
Other net income
was RMB196.7 million
(US$29.0 million), compared to RMB98.2 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was mainly due to an unrealized mark-to-market
gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its
early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry. This was partially offset by a net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million
(US$21.0 million), compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
increased by 6.1% YoY
to RMB1,639.9 million (US$241.7 million), compared with RMB1,545.9 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 14.3%, compared with
16.5% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating profit
(2)
was
RMB1,486.2 million (US$219.0 million), compared with RMB1,587.4 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
,
it would have been RMB1,628.6 million (US$240.0 million), representing an increase of 5.0% YoY.
Adjusted operating margin
(2)
was
12.9%, compared with 16.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been 14.2%.
Net finance costs
were RMB212.0 million
(US$31.2 million), compared to RMB128.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was mainly attributable to the decrease
in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance costs. The increase in finance costs was
mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the Company’s investment in directly operated stores;
(ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the equity linked securities issued by the Company in 2025 (the “
Equity Linked
Securities
”), and (iii) increased interest expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of
the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co., Ltd * (
永輝超市股份有限公司
)
(“
Yonghui
”). Both (ii) and (iii) are excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
and the increases were
driven by the full-period recognition of interest in 26H1 versus a pro-rated portion in the prior-year period.
4
Share of profit of equity-accounted investees,
net of tax
was RMB57.8 million (US$8.5 million), compared to a share of loss of RMB138.9 million in the same period last year. The
YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company's share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3 million (US$8.9 million), compared
to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui's return to profitability in 26H1, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling
program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in
Yonghui's 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded in the Company's non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
,
as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather than the underlying performance of MINISO’s own business.
Changes in fair value of redemption liabilities
were RMB47.4 million (US$7.0 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with
its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB141.3 million (US$20.8
million), representing a non-cash loss from fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation
to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was 26.2%, compared
to 24.1% in the same period last year.
Adjusted effective tax rate
(2)
was 24.8%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to 18.4% in the same period last year.
The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain subsidiaries of the Company.
Profit for the period
increased 5.6% YoY
to RMB956.6 million (US$141.0 million), compared to RMB906.0 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was primarily attributable
to the following factors: (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) from fair value changes of an
investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million (US$8.9 million) share of profit from its
investment in Yonghui. Such positive contributions were partially offset by the following factors: (i) higher S&D expenses compared
with the prior-year period, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0 million), reversing the net foreign exchange
gain of RMB36.6 million recorded in the same period last year, (iii) increased net finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising
from changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic
financing in 2025.
Net profit margin
was 8.3%, compared to
9.6% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net profit
(2)
was
RMB1,079.1 million (US$159.0 million), compared to RMB1,279.5 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it
would have been RMB1,221.6 million (US$180.0 million), compared to RMB1,242.9 million in the same period last year.
Adjusted net margin
(2)
was
9.4%, compared to 13.6% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been 10.6%, compared to 13.2% in the
same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
increased
by 3.1% YoY to RMB2,255.5 million (US$332.4 million).
5
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.6%, compared to 23.3% in the same period last year.
Basic earnings per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47),
compared to RMB2.96 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 6.8% YoY.
Diluted earnings per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47),
compared to RMB2.92 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 8.2% YoY.
Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per ADS
(2)
were both RMB3.56 (US$0.52), compared to both RMB4.16 in the same period last year.
Cash position
(6)
, which was
the combined balance of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and other investments recorded
as current assets, was RMB7,394.2 million (US$1,089.8 million) as of June 30, 2026, compared to RMB7,087.9 million as of December 31,
2025.
Net cash from operating activities
was RMB1,475.4 million (US$217.4
million) for 26H1, with a cash conversion ratio
(7)
of 1.4. Capital expenditure was RMB724.6 million (US$106.8 million) and
free cash flow was RMB750.8 million (US$110.6 million).
Financial Results for 26Q2
Revenue
was RMB5,810.5 million (US$856.4
million), representing an increase of 17.0% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased by 17.0%
to RMB5,339.8 million (US$787.0 million), driven by (i) an increase of 22.9% in Chinese mainland, and (ii) an increase of 9.1% in overseas
markets.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)
increased
by 16.9% to RMB470.1 million (US$69.3 million).
For more information on the composition and YoY
change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB3,180.9 million (US$468.8
million), representing an increase of 14.9% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB2,629.6 million (US$387.6
million), representing an increase of 19.6% YoY.
Gross margin
was 45.3%, compared to 44.3%
in the same period last year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 1.2% from tariff refunds in 26Q2.
S&D expenses
were RMB1,574.1 million
(US$232.0 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, S&D expenses were RMB1,566.8 million (US$230.9
million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY.
As a percentage of revenue, S&D expenses
excluding SBC stood at 27.0% in 26Q2, compared with 23.2% in the same period last year. This 3.8-percentage-point YoY increase was the
main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
General and administrative expenses
were
RMB293.7 million (US$43.3 million), representing an increase of 12.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general and administrative expenses
were RMB286.0 million (US$42.2 million), representing an increase of 13.7% YoY.
6
Other net loss
was RMB625.2 million (US$92.1
million), compared to an income of RMB77.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market
loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its
early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry, and (ii) a net foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million),
compared with a net exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
was RMB118.5 million
(US$17.5 million), compared with RMB836.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating profit was mainly due to (i)
an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership
investing in the AI industry, (ii) increased S&D expenses, and (iii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million),
compared to the net foreign exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 2.0%, compared with
16.8% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating profit
(2)
was
RMB730.7 million (US$107.7 million), compared with RMB852.6 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been
RMB790.6 million (US$116.5 million), representing a decrease of 3.3% YoY.
Adjusted operating margin
(2)
was
12.6%, compared with 17.2% in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been 13.6%, compared to 16.5% in the same period
last year.
Net finance costs
were RMB108.0 million
(US$15.9 million), compared to RMB79.4 million in the same period last year.
Share of loss of equity-accounted investees,
net of tax
was RMB20.4 million (US$3.0 million), compared to RMB136.9 million in the same period last year.
Changes in fair value of redemption liabilities
were RMB25.9 million (US$3.8 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with
its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB90.5 million (US$13.3
million), including a non-cash loss from fair value changes of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation
to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was negative 130.8%,
compared to 21.9% in the same period last year. The negative effective tax rate for 26Q2 was driven by the consolidated pre-tax loss,
which was primarily impacted by share of loss in Yonghui and an unrealized mark-to-market loss from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, while income tax expense was recognized on profitable taxable entities within
MINISO Group.
Adjusted effective tax rate
(2)
was 24.7%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to 16.5% in the same period last year.
The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain subsidiaries of the Company.
Loss for the period
was RMB291.5 million
(US$43.0 million), compared to a profit for the period of RMB489.5 million in the same period last year. The loss for the period was
mainly attributable to (i) the change in operating profit explained above, and (ii) other expenses of RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million),
compared to other gain of RMB6.7 million in the same period last year, partially offset by the decrease in share of loss in Yonghui.
7
Net loss margin
was 5.0%, compared with
a net profit margin of 9.9% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net profit
(2)
was
RMB528.6 million (US$77.9 million), compared to RMB692.3 million in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would
have been RMB588.4 million (US$86.7 million), compared to RMB657.3 million in the same period last year.
Adjusted net margin
(2)
was
9.1%, compared to 13.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)

same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
was RMB1,149.8
million (US$169.5 million), flat YoY.
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.8%, compared to 23.2% in the same period last year.

Notes:
(1)
“
SSSG”

prior to the beginning of the relevant comparative period and were in normal operating status

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 June 30, 2026, which was RMB6.7851 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 core business 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses
and (ii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value change
of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax,
(vi) changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, and (vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of
an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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. Starting
from March quarter 2026, to more accurately reflect the Company’s core business performance, the Company has adopted revised definitions
of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership investing in the AI industry from the calculation of these items. The Company recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand,
and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI
industry for the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the
Company has retrospectively adjusted its non-IFRS financial measures for prior periods.
MINISO presents these non-IFRS financial measures
because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business plans. These non-IFRS financial
measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned non-cash and
other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business 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 core business. 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.
10
These non-IFRS financial measures should not
be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to operating profit, operating margin, effective tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s historical non-IFRS financial
measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

Mr. Guofu
Ye, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MINISO, commented, “Despite a challenging consumer environment in the domestic market during 26H1,
we are pleased to see that MINISO Chinese mainland delivered a standout performance, with revenue growing 26.2% YoY, our fastest first-half
growth rate in the past three years, driven by mid-single-digit SSSG. MINISO overseas markets grew 14.9% YoY, while TOP TOY grew 32.7%
YoY.”
“Beyond
the financial performance, we would also like to share our progress on proprietary IP and membership operations. YOYO, launched just
one year ago, achieved monthly sales exceeding RMB100 million in both June and July 2026 and completed its first crossover
collaboration with a world-class IP, evolving into an IP asset capable of engaging and co-creating with international IPs on equal
footing. Members of MINISO Chinese mainland grew 31.0% YoY to about 130 million, contributing 77.4% of local sales; in the United
States, our members grew 107.1% YoY to about 5.8 million, contributing 60.1% of local sales. Our membership program highlighted
strong user retention, cementing the foundation for sustainable commercialization and long-term brand equity. On the global front,
we celebrated our market entry into Switzerland in 26Q2, extending our global footprint to accumulative 113 countries and regions,
while TOP TOY officially entered the United States and Taiwan, China, further elevating its global presence.”
“Moving forward,
MINISO will keep focusing on its dual drivers: IP and large-format stores. We aim to unlock deep brand equity via our IP ecosystem and
reshape retail experiences through large-format stores. Guided by long-termism, we balance global expansion with high-quality localization.
Powered by operational resilience, MINISO will create enduring, cycle-defying value for global stakeholders.” Mr. Ye continued.
Mr. Eason
Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, “During 26H1, revenue on group level grew by 22.4%. Adjusted operating profit excluding FX grew
5.0% YoY to RMB1,628.6 million. Net cash generated from operating activities reached RMB1,475.4 million, while adjusted net profit excluding
FX was RMB1,221.6 million in the same period, demonstrating strong resilience and robust operational cash flow generation of our business.”
“Our capital
allocation initiatives were highlighted by share repurchase of RMB517.6 million deployed by the Company in 26H1, accounting for more
than 90% of full-year repurchase amount of 2025. Furthermore, in June 2026, the Board approved 2026 share repurchase program of
up to HK$2.0 billion, alongside an automatic share repurchase plan, enabling continued buyback execution even during blackout periods
across both Hong Kong and the U.S. markets, underscoring our disciplined capital deployment, and reaffirmed our unwavering confidence
in MINISO Group’s intrinsic value.
We have returned
a total of RMB1.31 billion to shareholders by cash dividends and share repurchases, accounting for 121% of the adjusted net profit for
26H1, which far exceeded the 50% payout ratio per our current dividend policy. Looking ahead, our capital allocation strategy will continue
to balance our high-growth trajectory with our commitment to delivering stable, predictable returns to our shareholders.” Mr. Zhang
concluded.

Financial Results
for 26H1
Revenue
was
RMB11,498.9 million (US$1,694.7 million), representing an increase of 22.4% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO
brand increased by 21.6% YoY to RMB10,513.2 million (US$1,549.5 million), mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from
Chinese mainland, powered by its mid-single digit SSSG
(1)
, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets,
with low-single-digit decline in same-store GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to
40.9% in the same period last year.
Revenue from TOP
TOY brand
(5)
increased by 32.7% YoY to RMB984.6 million (US$145.1 million).
For more information
on the composition and YoY change of revenue, please refer to the “Unaudited Additional Information” in this press release.
Cost of sales
was RMB6,405.2 million (US$944.0 million), representing an increase of 22.3% YoY.
Gross profit
was RMB5,093.7 million (US$750.7 million), representing an increase of 22.5% YoY.
Gross margin
was 44.3%, flat year over year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 0.6% from tariff refunds. The Company estimated
more benefit in the coming quarters of about US$4.1 million.
Selling and
distribution (“S&D”) expenses
were RMB3,045.0 million (US$448.8 million), representing an increase of 39.6% YoY.
Excluding share-based compensation (“
SBC
”) expenses, S&D expenses were RMB2,961.5 million (US$436.5 million),
representing an increase of 36.7% YoY.
As a percentage
of revenue, S&D expenses excluding SBC stood at 25.8% in 26H1, compared with 23.1% in the same period last year. This 2.7-percentage-point
YoY increase was the main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
The YoY expenses
increase as percentages of revenue were broken down as follows: a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortization and rental
expenses for directly-operated stores; a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; a 0.5-percentage-point increase
in licensing expenses, reflecting the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future growth;
and an approximate 0.4-percentage-point increase in payroll expenses excluding SBC, largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics
expenses as a percentage of revenue remained stable at around 1.7%, flat YoY.
6
General and
administrative expenses
were RMB590.9 million (US$87.1 million), representing an increase of 17.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general
and administrative expenses were RMB550.8 million (US$81.2 million), representing an increase of 15.5% YoY. The YoY increase was primarily
due to the increase in personnel-related expenses in relation to the growth of the Company’s business.
Other net income
was RMB196.7 million (US$29.0 million), compared to RMB98.2 million in the same period last year. The YoY increase was mainly due
to an unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9 million) arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership, reflecting its early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry. This was partially offset by a net foreign exchange
loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0 million), compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million in the same period last year.
Operating profit
increased by 6.1% YoY to RMB1,639.9 million (US$241.7 million), compared with RMB1,545.9 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 14.3%, compared with 16.5% in the same period last year.
Adjusted
operating profit
(2) was RMB1,486.2 million (US$219.0 million), compared with RMB1,587.4 million in the same period last year.
If excluding FX(3), it would have been RMB1,628.6 million (US$240.0 million), representing an increase of 5.0% YoY.
Adjusted operating
margin
(2) was 12.9%, compared with 16.9% in the same period last year. If excluding FX(3), it would have been 14.2%.
Net finance
costs
were RMB212.0 million (US$31.2 million), compared to RMB128.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was
mainly attributable to the decrease in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance
costs. The increase in finance costs was mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the
Company’s investment in directly operated stores; (ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the equity linked
securities issued by the Company in 2025 (the “
Equity Linked Securities
”), and (iii) increased interest
expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co.,
Ltd (永輝超市股份有限公司) (“
Yonghui
”). Both
(ii) and (iii) are excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2) and the increases
were driven by the
full-period recognition of interest in 26H1 versus a pro-rated portion in the prior-year period.
Share of profit
of equity-accounted investees, net of tax
was RMB57.8 million (US$8.5 million), compared to a share of loss of RMB138.9 million in
the same period last year. The YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company’s share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3
million (US$8.9 million), compared to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui’s return to profitability
in 26H1, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin
and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in Yonghui’s 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded
in the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
, as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather
than the underlying performance of MINISO’s own business.
7
Changes in fair
value of redemption liabilities
were RMB47.4 million (US$7.0 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued
by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB141.3 million (US$20.8 million), representing a non-cash loss from fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market
impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax rate
was 26.2%,
compared to 24.1% in the same period last year.
Adjusted effective
tax rate
(2)
was 24.8%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to
18.4% in the same period last year. The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain
subsidiaries of the Company.
Profit for the
period
increased 5.6% YoY to RMB956.6 million (US$141.0 million), compared to RMB906.0 million in the same period last year. The
YoY increase was primarily attributable to the following factors: (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million (US$40.9
million) from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million
(US$8.9 million) share of profit from its investment in Yonghui. Such positive contributions were partially offset by the following factors:
(i) higher S&D expenses compared with the prior-year period, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million (US$21.0
million), reversing the net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million recorded in the same period last year, (iii) increased net
finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising from changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred
shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025.
Net profit margin
was 8.3%, compared
to 9.6% in the same period last year.
Adjusted net
profit
(2)
was RMB1,079.1 million (US$159.0 million), compared to RMB1,279.5 million in the same period last year.
If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have been RMB1,221.6 million (US$180.0 million), compared to RMB1,242.9 million in the same period
last year.
Adjusted net
margin
(2)
was 9.4%, compared to 13.6% in the same period last year. If excluding FX
(3)
, it would have
been 10.6%, compared to 13.2% in the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA
(2)
increased
by 3.1% YoY to RMB2,255.5 million (US$332.4 million).
Adjusted EBITDA margin
(2)
was
19.6%, compared to 23.3% in the same period last year.
Basic earnings
per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47), compared to RMB2.96 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 6.8% YoY.
Diluted earnings
per ADS
was RMB3.16 (US$0.47), compared to RMB2.92 in the same period last year, representing an increase of 8.2% YoY.
8
Adjusted basic
and diluted earnings per ADS
(2)
were both RMB3.56 (US$0.52), compared to both RMB4.16 in the same period last year.

which was the combined balance of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and other investments
recorded as current assets, was RMB7,394.2 million (US$1,089.8 million) as of June 30, 2026, compared to RMB7,087.9 million as of
December 31, 2025.
Net cash from
operating activities
was RMB1,475.4 million (US$217.4 million) for 26H1, with a cash conversion ratio
(7)
of 1.4.
Capital expenditure was RMB724.6 million (US$106.8 million) and free cash flow was RMB750.8 million (US$110.6 million).
Financial Results for 26Q2
Revenue
was RMB5,810.5 million
(US$856.4 million), representing an increase of 17.0% YoY.
Revenue from MINISO
brand increased by 17.0% to RMB5,339.8 million (US$787.0 million), driven by (i) an increase of 22.9% in Chinese mainland, and (ii) an
increase of 9.1% in overseas markets.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand
(5)

was RMB2,629.6 million
(US$387.6 million), representing an increase of 19.6% YoY.

was 45.3%, compared to 44.3% in the same period last year. The current-period margin included a benefit of about 1.2% from tariff
refunds in 26Q2.
S&D expenses
were RMB1,574.1 million (US$232.0 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, S&D expenses were
RMB1,566.8 million (US$230.9 million), representing an increase of 35.7% YoY.
As a percentage
of revenue, S&D expenses excluding SBC stood at 27.0% in 26Q2, compared with 23.2% in the same period last year. This 3.8-percentage-point
YoY increase was the main driver for the corresponding YoY decline in adjusted net profit margin excluding FX
(3)
.
General and
administrative expenses
were RMB293.7 million (US$43.3 million), representing an increase of 12.3% YoY. Excluding SBC expenses, general
and administrative expenses were RMB286.0 million (US$42.2 million), representing an increase of 13.7% YoY.
Other net loss
was RMB625.2 million (US$92.1 million), compared to an income of RMB77.4 million in the same period last year. The YoY change was
mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) arising from fair value changes of an
investment in a limited partnership, reflecting its early stage strategic pre-IPO investment in the AI industry, and (ii) a net
foreign exchange loss of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million), compared with a net exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last
year.
9
Operating profit
was RMB118.5 million (US$17.5 million), compared with RMB836.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating profit
was mainly due to (i) an unrealized mark-to-market loss of RMB597.2 million (US$88.0 million) from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, (ii) increased S&D expenses, and (iii) net foreign exchange loss
of RMB59.9 million (US$8.8 million), compared to the net foreign exchange gain of RMB35.0 million in the same period last year.
Operating margin
was 2.0%, compared with 16.8% in the same period last year.
Adjusted operating
profit
(2)
was RMB730.7 million (US$107.7 million), compared with RMB852.6 million in the same period last year. If
excluding FX, it would have been RMB790.6 million (US$116.5 million), representing a decrease of 3.3% YoY.
Adjusted operating
margin
(2)
was 12.6%, compared with 17.2% in the same period last year. If excluding FX, it would have been 13.6%,
compared to 16.5% in the same period last year.
Net finance
costs
were RMB108.0 million (US$15.9 million), compared to RMB79.4 million in the same period last year.
Share of loss
of equity-accounted investees, net of tax
was RMB20.4 million (US$3.0 million), compared to RMB136.9 million in the same period last
year.
Changes in fair
value of redemption liabilities
were RMB25.9 million (US$3.8 million), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued
by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025 and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Other expenses
were RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million), including a non-cash loss from fair value changes of certain derivative under mark-to-market
impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities and has been excluded in non-IFRS financial measures
(2)
.
Effective tax
rate
was negative 130.8%, compared to 21.9% in the same period last year. The negative effective tax rate for 26Q2 was driven by
the consolidated pre-tax loss, which was primarily impacted by share of loss in Yonghui and an unrealized mark-to-market loss from fair
value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, while income tax expense was recognized on profitable
taxable entities within MINISO Group.
Adjusted effective
tax rate
(2)
was 24.7%, which excluded the impact on effective tax rate as a result of adjusted items, compared to
16.5% in the same period last year. The YoY increase mainly reflected the tax effect of net foreign exchange loss and loss from certain
subsidiaries of the Company.
Loss for the
period
was RMB291.5 million (US$43.0 million), compared to a profit for the period of RMB489.5 million in the same period last year.
The loss for the period was mainly attributable to (i) the change in operating profit explained above, and (ii) other expenses
of RMB90.5 million (US$13.3 million), compared to other gain of RMB6.7 million in the same period last year, partially offset by the
decrease in share of loss in Yonghui.

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 June 30, 2026, which was
RMB6.7851 to US$1.0000. The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based on the RMB amounts.
13
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 core business 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 (i) equity-settled
share-based payment expenses and (ii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in
the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain
or loss from fair value change of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) share
of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, (vi) changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, and
(vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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. Starting from March quarter 2026, to more accurately reflect
the Company’s core business performance, the Company has adopted revised definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted
net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry from
the calculation of these items. The Company recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand, and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million
from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry for the three months ended March 31,
June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the Company has retrospectively adjusted
its non-IFRS financial measures for prior periods.
14
MINISO presents
these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business
plans. These non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of
the aforementioned non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business 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 core business. 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 operating profit, operating margin, effective
tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s
historical non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

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, and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per Share
and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per American Depositary Share (the “
ADS
”) as supplemental measures to
review and assess its core business 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses and (ii) gain
or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value change of derivatives,
(iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) interest expenses related to the equity linked securities issued by the Company in
January 2025 (the “
Equity Linked Securities
”) and interest expenses related to the bank loans used for acquisition
of the equity interest in Yonghui Superstores Co., Ltd (
永輝超市股份有限公司)
(“
Yonghui
”), (v) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, (vi) changes in fair value of redemption
liabilities arising from preferred shares, and (vii) gain or loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership
investing in the AI industry. 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 (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) 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 Share by dividing adjusted net profit attributable to the equity shareholders
of the Company by the number of Shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per Share calculation on an IFRS basis. MINISO computes
adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS in the same way as it calculates adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per Share, except
that it uses the number of ADSs used in the basic and diluted earnings per ADS calculation on an IFRS basis as the denominator instead
of the number of Shares. Starting from the first quarter of 2026, to more accurately reflect the Company’s core business performance,
the Company has adopted revised definitions of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit by excluding gain or loss from fair
value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry from the calculation of these items. The Company
recorded loss of nil and RMB829.0 thousand, and gain of RMB25.4 million and RMB53.8 million from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry for the three months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and
December 31, 2025, respectively. To ensure comparability, the Company has retrospectively adjusted its non-IFRS financial measures
for prior periods.
2
MINISO presents these non-IFRS
financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its core business performance and formulate business plans. These
non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its core business results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned
non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its core business 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 core business results in the same manner as the management and the Board.
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 core business. 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 operating profit, operating margin, effective tax rate, 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 core business performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s historical
non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS financial 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.

mainland in 2013, we have successfully built two brands – “MINISO” and “TOP TOY”. Our flagship brand “MINISO”
has grown into a globally recognized retail brand that offers a frequently-refreshed assortment of lifestyle products through an extensive

creativeness, high quality and affordability.
During the six months ended June 30,

The Retail Partner model represents
a mutually beneficial relationship between us and our Retail Partners, where we achieve rapid store network expansion with consistent
brand image and consumer experience in an asset-light manner, and our Retail Partners attain attractive investment opportunities. Our
Retail Partners are also motivated to maintain a loyal relationship with us. As of June 30, 2026, there were 1,173 Retail Partners
that invested in MINISO stores in Chinese mainland, and 656 of them had invested for over three years. We had one distributor for the
MINISO brand in Tibet, China as of June 30, 2026. As of the date of this announcement, there has been no conversion of our franchisees
in Chinese mainland from a Retail Partner to a distributor, or vice versa.

Store operations in overseas
markets
We have adopted flexible store
operation models, including direct operation, Retail Partner model and distributor model, as we expand our global networks, depending

market conditions and their operational needs, our overseas franchisees may sometimes convert from a Retail Partner to a distributor,

Revenue
Our total revenue was RMB11,498.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB9,393.1 million), representing an
increase of 22.4% year over year.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased
by 21.6% to RMB10,513.2 million, mainly driven by (i) an increase of 26.2% in revenue from Chinese mainland, powered by its mid-single
digit same-store GMV growth, and (ii) an increase of 14.9% in revenue from overseas markets, with low-single-digit decline in same-store
GMV. Overseas markets revenue contributed 38.6% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to 40.9% for the six months ended June 30,
2025.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand increased by 32.7% year
over year to RMB984.6 million.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales was RMB6,405.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB5,236.2 million), representing an
increase of 22.3% year over year.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Our gross profit was RMB5,093.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB4,156.9 million), representing an
increase of 22.5% year over year, and gross margin was 44.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30,
2025: 44.3%).
Selling and Distribution Expenses
Our selling and distribution
expenses were RMB3,045.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,181.0
million), representing an increase of 39.6% year over year. Excluding equity-based compensation expenses, our selling and distribution
expenses were RMB2,961.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,167.1
million), representing an increase of 36.7% year over year.
The YoY expenses increase as
percentages of revenue was broken down as follows: (i) a 1.0-percentage-point rise in depreciation and amortisation and rental expenses
for directly-operated stores; (ii) a 0.5-percentage-point uptick in promotion and advertising expenses; (iii) a 0.5-percentage-point
increase in licensing expenses, reflecting the Company’s strategic investments in IP development to build foundations for future
growth; and (iv) an approximate 0.4-percentage-point increase in payroll expenses excluding equity-based compensation expenses,
largely attributable to overseas operations. Logistics expenses as a percentage of revenue remained stable at around 1.7%, flat year
over year.
17
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative
expenses were RMB590.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB503.7 million),
representing an increase of 17.3% year over year. Excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses, our general and administrative
expenses were RMB550.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB477.0 million),
representing an increase of 15.5% year over year, which were primarily attributable to the increase in personnel-related expenses in
relation to the growth of our business.
Other Net Income
Our other net income was RMB196.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB98.2 million). The YoY increase
was mainly due to an unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million arising from fair value changes of an investment in a limited
partnership investing in the AI industry, which was partially offset by a net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million, compared to
a net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Operating Profit
As a result of the foregoing,
we recorded operating profit of RMB1,639.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, (for the six months ended June 30,
2025: RMB1,545.9 million).
Net Finance Costs
Our net finance costs were RMB212.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB128.4 million). The YoY increase
was mainly attributable to the decrease in interest income as a result of decreased principal in bank deposit, and increased finance
costs. The increase in finance costs was mainly due to (i) increased interest expenses on lease liabilities in line with the Company’s
investment in directly operated stores; (ii) increased interest expenses in relation to the Equity Linked Securities, and (iii) increased
interest expenses mainly attributable to a borrowing in connection with the acquisition of the equity interest in Yonghui.
Changes in Fair Value of Redemption Liabilities
Our changes in fair value of
redemption liabilities was RMB47.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025:
nil), which was a non-cash loss arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing in 2025.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded income tax expense
of RMB340.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB288.2 million).
18
Share of Profit/(Loss) of Equity-Accounted Investees,
Net of Tax
Our share of profit of equity-accounted
investees, net of tax was RMB57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: share
of loss of RMB138.9 million). The YoY improvement was primarily attributable to the Company’s share of profit in Yonghui of RMB60.3
million, compared to a share of loss in the prior-year period. This reflected Yonghui’s return to profitability during the first
half of 2026, driven by its ongoing store-remodeling program, strengthened private-label merchandise portfolio, and improved gross margin
and operating expense discipline, as disclosed in Yonghui’s 2026 interim report. The share of profit in Yonghui has been excluded
in the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures, as it relates to the operating results of an associated company rather than the underlying
performance of MINISO’s own business.
Other Expenses
Our other expenses were RMB141.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB84.4 million), mainly attributable
to loss from a fair value change of certain derivative under mark-to-market impact, which was in relation to the Equity Linked Securities.
Profit for the Period
We recorded a profit of RMB956.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB906.0 million). The YoY increase
was primarily attributable to (i) the unrealized mark-to-market gain of RMB277.4 million from fair value changes of an investment
in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry, and (ii) RMB60.3 million share of profit from our investment in Yonghui.
Such positive contributions were partially offset by
(i) higher selling and distribution
expenses, (ii) net foreign exchange loss of RMB142.4 million, reversing the net foreign exchange gain of RMB36.6 million recorded
for the six months ended June 30, 2025, (iii) increased net finance costs explained above, and (iv) a loss arising from
changes in fair value of redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares issued by TOP TOY in connection with its strategic financing
in 2025.
Adjusted Net Profit
(a non-IFRS measure)
We recorded an adjusted net profit
of RMB1,079.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB1,279.5 million) which
represents profit for the period excluding (i) equity-settled share-based payment expenses, (ii) gain or loss from fair value
change of derivatives, (iii) issuance cost of derivatives, (iv) 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, (v) changes in fair value of
redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares, (vi) share of profit or loss of Yonghui, net of tax, and (vii) gain or
loss from fair value changes of an investment in a limited partnership investing in the AI industry.
Adjusted
EBITDA
(a non-IFRS measure)
We recorded an adjusted EBITDA
of RMB2,255.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB2,187.6 million),
which represents adjusted net profit plus (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) 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 (iii) income tax expense.
19
Net Cash from Operating Activities
and Free Cash Flow
For the six months ended June 30,
2026, our net cash from operating activities was RMB1,475.4 million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB1,014.2 million),
capital expenditure was RMB724.6 million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB434.8 million) and free cash flow was RMB750.8
million (for the six months ended June 30, 2025: RMB579.4 million).
Current Ratio
Our current ratio decreased from
1.9 as of June 30, 2025 to 1.6 as of June 30, 2026, primarily due to the increase in trade payables related to our inventories,
short-term loans and borrowings, redemption liabilities arising from preferred shares related to TOP TOY’s strategic financing,
and lease liabilities relating to directly operated stores.
20
OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Liquidity and Source of Funding
During the six months ended June 30,
2026, we funded our cash requirements principally through cash generated from our operations. As of June 30, 2026, our cash, cash
equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits, and other investments recorded in current assets were RMB7,394.2 million (as of December 31,
2025: RMB7,087.9 million).
Material Acquisitions and Disposals
We did not have any material
acquisitions or disposals of subsidiaries, consolidated affiliated entities or associated companies during the six months ended June 30,
2026.
Significant Investments
In September 2024, our Company
acquired an aggregate of 2,668,135,376 shares in Yonghui (representing approximately 29.4% of its entire issued share capital at the
time of the acquisition) (the “
Yonghui Acquisition
”). Yonghui, a listed company on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock
code: 601933), is a retail chain operator featuring fresh produce management, mainly operates hypermarkets, supermarkets and community
supermarkets, and has approximately 403 outlets spanning across about 24 provinces and municipalities across the Chinese mainland as
of December 31, 2025. The Yonghui Acquisition was approved by our shareholders at our extraordinary general meeting held on January 17,
2025, and was completed in the first quarter of 2025. For details, please refer to our announcement dated September 23, 2024 and
our circular dated November 22, 2024.
Our equity interest in Yonghui
has been accounted for as investments in associates using the equity method in our consolidated financial statements since its completion.
As of December 31, 2025, we continued to hold approximately 29.4% of the issued share capital of Yonghui. For the six months ended
June 30, 2026, we recorded a gain of RMB60.3 million for the investment in Yonghui. As we continue to be optimistic about the development
of the offline retail industry in Chinese mainland, we believe that the investment in Yonghui is in line with the Group’s investment
strategy.
Save as disclosed above, we did
not make or hold any other significant investments during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Future Plans for Material Investments or Capital
Assets
As of June 30, 2026, we
did not have detailed future plans for material investments or capital assets.
21
Pledge of Assets
As of June 30, 2026, our
equity interests in equity-accounted investees of approximately RMB3,866.2 million were pledged as securities for obtaining banking borrowings,
an industry common practice for borrowings used for acquisitions.
As of June 30, 2026, our
land use rights for the headquarters building with a carrying amount of approximately RMB1,571.0 million were pledged as collateral for
obtaining banking borrowings, an industry common practice for project financing.
Cash Management Policy
We believe we can make better
use of our cash by making appropriate investments in short-term investment products, which generate income without interfering with our
business operation or capital expenditures. Our investment decisions with respect to financial products are made on a case-by-case basis
and after due and careful consideration of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market conditions, the economic developments,
the anticipated investment conditions, the investment cost, the duration of the investment and the expected benefit and potential loss
of the investment. We have established a set of internal control measures which allow us to achieve reasonable returns on our investment
while mitigating our exposure to high investment risks. These policies and measures were formulated by our senior management.
In order to make full use of
idle funds, improve the utilization rate of surplus funds, and increase our income, under the premise of not affecting our normal business
activities, subject to approval from our chief financial officer, we may purchase a certain amount of wealth management products from
financial institutions. According to our internal policies, the manager of our treasury department should make proposals to invest in
wealth management products to our chief financial officer and such proposals must be reviewed and approved by our chief financial officer.
In assessing a proposal to invest in wealth management products, a number of criteria must be met, including but not limited to the following:
·
the
purchase of wealth management products is limited to low-risk products such as term deposits,
principal-guaranteed and interest-paying products, treasury notes issued by banks, and wealth
management products with risk level below R2. The purchase of high-risk financial instruments
such as securities and futures is strictly prohibited.
·
the
expected return of the purchased wealth management products should be not lower than bank’s
deposit interest rate for term deposits of the same period, the product structure should
be relatively simple, and the purchases should be made from financial institutions with large
operation scale, overall strength and good credit standing.
·
the
treasury department is responsible for setting up a detailed ledger for wealth management
products, the manager of the treasury department manages the financial products, and tracks
the progress and safety of wealth management products. In the event of an abnormal situation,
the manager of the treasury department should report the situation to the chief financial
officer in a timely manner so that we can take effective measures immediately to reduce potential
losses.
22
Gearing Ratio
As of June 30, 2026, our
gearing ratio was 82.9%, calculated as loans and borrowings divided by total equity as of the end of the period and multiplied by 100%.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Our financial reporting currency
is RMB and changes in foreign exchange rates can significantly affect our reported results and consolidated trends. In addition, our
results of operations, including margins, are affected by the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates. Our international operations generate
revenues primarily in U.S. dollars. Generally, a weakening of RMB against U.S. dollar has a positive effect on our results of operations,
while a strengthening of RMB against U.S. dollar has the opposite effect. We have not used any derivative financial instruments to hedge
exposure to such risk. To the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for our operations, appreciation of RMB against U.S.
dollar would have an adverse effect on RMB amount we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert RMB into U.S. dollars
for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of U.S.
dollar against RMB would have a negative effect on U.S. dollar amounts available to us.
Contingent Liabilities
Securities class action
In
August 2022, a putative federal securities class action was filed against us and certain of its officers and Directors (“
Defendants
”),
alleging that Defendants made misleading misstatements or omissions regarding our business operations and financials in violation of
the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The action is captioned
In re MINISO Group Holding Limited Securities
Litigation
, 1:22-cv-09864 (S.D.N.Y.). Lead plaintiff was appointed in November 2022 and filed the operative complaint
to the court. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, and the motion was granted by the court in February 2024, with
leave to amend. Plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the court’s decision, which was rejected by the court. Plaintiffs
filed a further amended complaint on April 30, 2025. We and other defendants filed a motion to dismiss that complaint, which was
granted by the court on March 31, 2026, with prejudice. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal. Briefing for the appeal, pending
before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, is ongoing. As this case remains in its preliminary stage, as of June 30,
2026, the Directors were currently unable to predict the timing, outcome, potential damages or loss, if any, associated with the resolution
of it.
23
Capital Commitment
As of June 30, 2026, our
capital commitment was RMB170.5 million, compared to RMB630.9 million as of June 30, 2025, which was mainly attributable to the
construction of the headquarters building.
Employees and Remuneration
We had a total of 8,519 full-time
employees as of June 30, 2026, including 3,198 in Chinese mainland and 5,321 in certain overseas countries and regions, up from

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Board is committed to achieving
high corporate governance standards. The Board believes that high corporate governance standards are essential in providing a framework
for us to safeguard the interests of shareholders and to enhance corporate value and accountability.
Compliance with the Corporate
Governance Code
We have complied with all the
applicable code provisions of the Corporate Governance Code (the “
Corporate Governance Code
”) set forth in Part 2
of Appendix C1 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the “
Listing Rules
”) on the Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited (the “
HKEX
”) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, save for the following.
Code provision C.2.1 of the Corporate
Governance Code recommends, but does not require, that the roles of chairman of the Board and chief executive officer should be separate
and should not be performed by the same individual.
We deviate from this code provision
as we do not have a separate chairman and chief executive officer and Mr. Ye Guofu (“
Mr. Ye
”) currently
performs these two roles of the Company. Mr. Ye is our founder and has extensive experience in our business operations and management.
The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairperson and chief executive officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring
consistent leadership within our Group and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for our Group. The Board considers
that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable our Company to
make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. The Board will continue to review and consider splitting the roles of chairman
of the Board and the chief executive officer of our Company if and when it is appropriate taking into account the circumstances of the
Group as a whole.
Compliance with the Model
Code for Securities Transactions by Directors
We have adopted the Management
Trading of Securities Policy (the “
Code
”), with terms no less exacting than the Model Code for Securities Transactions
by Directors of Listed Issuers as set out in Appendix C3 to the Listing Rules, as its own securities dealing code to regulate all dealings
by Directors and relevant employees of securities in the Company and other matters covered by the Code.
Specific enquiry has been made
of all the Directors and each of the Directors has confirmed that he/she has complied with the Code during the six months ended June 30,
2026.
25
Audit Committee
We have established an Audit
Committee in compliance with Rule 3.21 of the Listing Rules and the Corporate Governance Code.
The Audit Committee comprises
three independent non-executive Directors, namely Ms. XU Lili, Mr. ZHU Yonghua and Mr. WANG Yongping. Ms. XU Lili,
being the chairwoman of the Audit Committee, is appropriately qualified as required under Rule 3.10(2) of the Listing Rules.
The primary duties of the Audit
Committee are:
(a)
to
monitor the integrity of our financial statements and our compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements as they relate to our financial statements and accounting matters;
(b)
to review the adequacy of our
internal control over financial reporting; and
(c)
to
review all related party transactions for potential conflict of interest situations and approve
all such transactions.
The Audit Committee has reviewed
our unaudited interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Audit Committee has also discussed matters
with respect to the accounting policies and practices adopted by us and internal control and financial reporting matters with our senior
management members.
In addition, our independent
auditor, Ernst & Young, has reviewed our unaudited interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2026
in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity” as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
26
OTHER INFORMATION
Dividend Policy
On March 31, 2026, the Board
has approved the amendment of the dividend policy adopted by the Company to amend the definition of adjusted net profit under the dividend
policy, pursuant to which the Company could declare and distribute dividends in an amount equal to approximately 50% of the adjusted
net profit (a non-IFRS measure defined as profit for the period after excluding certain items as determined by the management such as
share-based payments, non-cash charges, non-operating items and non-recurring items) each year, with the exact calculation and amount
to be determined and announced by the Board from time to time based on the Company’s financial performance and cash position prior
to the declaration and distribution. For details, please see section headed “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” above.

Use of Proceeds from Equity
Linked Securities
In January 2025, we entered
into a subscription agreement with UBS AG Hong Kong Branch and The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited for the issuance
of Equity Linked Securities, which were convertible debt securities that shall be settled wholly in cash, with an aggregate principal
amount of US$550,000,000 and an expected maturity date on January 14, 2032. Further, we and UBS AG, London Branch and The Hongkong
and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited entered into a call spread (the “
Call Spread
”), which was separate from,
but is part and parcel of the Equity Linked Securities.
The Equity Linked Securities
were issued to raise funds in order to further grow the Company and its operations and to finance the Company’s share repurchase
programs. The Call Spread is generally expected to reduce potential dilution to the Shares and offset cash payments that the Company
will be required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Equity Linked Securities upon exercise of the Equity Linked Securities.
This would give the Company greater financial flexibility and reduce the risk exposure of the Company to market fluctuations during the
tenor of the Equity Linked Securities to a pre-determined range.
We raised total net proceeds
of US$457,079,647 (equivalent to HK$3,553,839,963) from the offering and sale of the Equity Linked Securities and the Call Spread, after
deducting fees, commissions, expenses, and net cost of entry into the Call Spread.
The initial exercise price of
the Equity Linked Securities was US$8.2822 per Share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain customary prescribed corporate
actions. As a result of the distribution of the final cash dividend for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “
2024
Final Dividend
”), the interim cash dividend for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (the “
2025 Interim Dividend
”)
and the final cash dividend for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “
2025 Final Dividend
”), the Equity
Linked Securities exercise price was adjusted from US$8.2822 per Share to US$8.1516 per Share with effect from April 9, 2025, being
the date immediately after the record date of the 2024 Final Dividend, and to US$8.0314 per Share with effect from September 6,
2025, being the date immediately after the record date of the 2025 Interim Dividend, and further to US$7.8525 per Share with effect from
April 21, 2026, being the date immediately after the record date of the 2025 Final Dividend.
28
The Company expects to fully utilize the residual amount of the net
proceeds in accordance with such intended purposes within 36 months from January 14, 2025, the date of completion of the issuance
of the Equity Linked Securities.
For further details, please refer
to the announcements of the Company dated January 7, 2025 and January 14, 2025 in relation to the issuance of the Equity Linked
Securities and the entering into of the Call Spread by our Company and the announcements dated April 24, 2025, August 29, 2025
and April 21, 2026 for the relevant adjustments made pursuant to the 2024 Final Dividend, 2025 Interim Dividend and 2025 Final Dividend,
respectively.
As of June 30, 2025, December 31,
2025 and June 30, 2026, the Group had utilized the net proceeds as set out in the table below:

The Board did not recommend the
distribution of an interim dividend for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
