On the product front, the Company leveraged AI capabilities to enhance recommendation accuracy and user experience while accelerating the commercialization of AI products.

This reflects the Company’s confidence in long-term growth and its commitment to sharing the benefits of its development with shareholders.”

Driven by continued user penetration and enhanced monetization capabilities through service innovation, the Company’s annual revenue grew by 12.4% year over year, further solidifying our industry-leading position as China’s largest online recruitment platform. The full-year profit margin reached record high and increased significantly year over year, demonstrating the strong operating leverage and superior cost control capabilities driven by our robust double-sided network effects.”
