HONG KONG SAR – [Media OutReach Newswire](https://www.media-outreach.com) – 28 August
2026 – Huatai Securities Co., Ltd. (the “Company”; stock codes: 601688.SH, 6886.
HK, HTSC.L), a leading technology‑driven and fully integrated securities firm in
China, today announced its consolidated financial results for the six months ended
June 30, 2026.

 The Company recorded total revenue of RMB 31.31 billion, representing a year‑on‑
year increase of 49.23%; net profit attributable to shareholders reached RMB 11.69
billion, up 54.87% year‑on‑year. Revenue from the Company’s major business segments,
wealth management, institutional services, investment management and international
business all recorded year‑on‑year growth, driving operating performance to a record
high for the period.

 Reflecting its strong financial performance, the Company has declared an interim
dividend of RMB 1.80 per 10 shares, reaffirming its commitment to delivering sustainable
value to shareholders.

 Huatai Securities believes that sustainable competitive advantage can only be achieved
through a systematic and enterprise-wide approach to artificial intelligence (AI).
Since the beginning of 2026, the Company has focused on establishing AI as a future‑
ready strategic infrastructure, accelerating its integration with professional financial
expertise, business processes and organizational frameworks. By advancing an AI‑
native business ecosystem that combines human judgement with machine intelligence,
Huatai Securities is empowering employees to enhance productivity, strengthen innovation
and deliver more sophisticated professional insights. This approach enables the 
Company to respond to clients’ evolving needs with greater efficiency, precision
and service quality.

 **AI-driven Business Transformation**

 From large models to AI agents, AI technology is evolving at a rapid pace. Huatai
Securities is firmly advancing its “ALL IN AI” strategy, leveraging technology not
only to enhance quality and efficiency, but also to systematically re-engineer business
workflows through AI-native thinking. The Company is embedding AI across key business
functions, including investment research, investment banking, trading and wealth
advisory, while also strengthening foundational capabilities in compliance, risk
management and corporate decision‑making. As AI moves from the back office to the
front line, Huatai Securities is transforming service delivery from reactive engagement
to proactive support, creating a more intelligent, efficient and client-centric 
operating model.

 Huatai Securities’ next‑generation AI‑native trading platform, the “AI ZhangLe”
App, has redefined the traditional service model by shifting from an approach where
clients actively seek out services to one where services proactively reach clients.
The platform provides individual investors with intelligent, end‑to‑end support 
throughout the investment lifecycle. By deeply integrating investment research capabilities
with advanced algorithms, AI ZhangLe replaces conventional command‑based interactions
with natural language conversations, enabling the platform to understand investor
needs, anticipate scenarios and provide proactive strategies. Before trades are 
executed, it scans market signals in real time to uncover potential targets based
on objective indicators. During execution, it interprets investment intent through
natural language interactions and translates it into actionable tasks for investors’
reference. Following execution, it delivers multi‑dimensional portfolio analysis,
performance attribution and personalized optimization strategies, while proactively
providing scenario‑based insights and professional decision‑support information.
Since its launch in October 2025, the “AI ZhangLe” App has surpassed 5 million cumulative
downloads.

 As the AI transformation progresses, Huatai Securities is accelerating the development
of a unified financial middle-office platform that provides a shared capability 
framework and data infrastructure across key business segments, including wealth
management and institutional services. This platform enables the reuse of specialized
expertise, integration of data assets and accumulation of organizational knowledge,
driving continuous enhancement through real‑world business scenarios and iterative
learning. At the core of this effort is the Company’s AI‑powered industry map, which
systematically structures and embeds industry knowledge generated across investment
research, investment banking and investment management activities. By transforming
fragmented individual expertise and relationship networks into organizational intelligence,
the platform enhances asset discovery capabilities and supports more accurate asset
valuation and pricing. The AI‑powered industry map currently covers a range of strategic
sectors, including lithium battery energy storage, semiconductor equipment, new 
energy vehicles, intelligent driving and innovative pharmaceuticals, and incorporates
more than 60 specialized investment research capabilities, serving as a reusable,
continuously evolving and highly scalable research foundation for all business segments
across the Company.

the industry. Leveraging its cross‑border capabilities and integrated business model,

Chinese enterprises through Hong Kong’s capital markets. During the first half of
2026, Huatai Financial Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited completed 12 Hong Kong IPO sponsorship

 **“One Huatai”: Delivering Client****–****Centric Solutions**

 Against a backdrop of profound macroeconomic adjustment and ongoing structural 
market transformation, wealth and institutional clients are increasingly seeking
sophisticated asset-allocation strategies, enhanced risk management and highly customized

asset allocation and investment strategy development. The platform incorporates 
a suite of role‑specific intelligent agents that support end-to-end execution across
core advisory workflows. Leveraging its proprietary technology infrastructure, the
