2. Principal Activities or Products in the Reporting Period
(I) Principal Activity of the Company
The Company primarily produces and markets baijiu. According to the Industry Categorization Guide for Listed Companies
(Revised in 2012) issued by the CSRC baijiu making belongs to the “liquor beverage and refined tea making industry” (C15). The
Company’s principal operations remained unchanged in the Reporting Period.(II) Status of the Industry and Position of the Company in the Industry
(1) Status of the Baijiu Industry
The baijiu industry is at a crucial turning point in its deep adjustment period. In 2025 the industry fundamentals are under pressure
showing three characteristics of “reduced volume and price drop high inventory pressure and consumption differentiation.”
1Annual Report 2025 (Summary)
According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics from January to December 2025 the output of baijiu enterprises above
designated size (converted to 65 degrees) was 3549000 kiloliters a year-on-year decline of 12.10% marking the seventh
consecutive year of decline since 2019. The terminal market has sluggish sales high channel inventory widespread phenomenon of
inverted prices reduced demand for business banquets with banquets and mass consumption scenarios relatively stable the industry
has entered a stage of stock competition and the mid-to-low price band has become the main force for de-stocking.In 2026 the industry will accelerate differentiation in the “stock competition” pattern. In terms of market structure the Matthew
effect intensifies with leading companies further squeezing the space for small and medium-sized baijiu companies by relying on
brand momentum and channel control. In terms of consumption structure there is an obvious “dumbbell-shaped” distribution: the
growth rate of the high-end market (above 1000 yuan) is slowing the mass market (50-200 yuan price range) has become the
fastest-growing ballast and the sub-high-end range (300-800 yuan) is caught in the most intense price competition. In terms of
consumer behavior rational and pragmatic consumption becomes mainstream the consensus of “drinking less but drinking better” is
strengthened and the consumption scene shifts from government and business-led to diversified modes such as family gatherings
self-drinking and social circles. In terms of product innovation trends of low-alcohol lightweight and health-conscious products are
prominent with strong demand for light bottle wine and small packaging and new categories like fruit and herb wines breaking
through against the trend. In terms of channel reform digital construction has upgraded from an efficiency tool to a survival
infrastructure and the scale of the instant retail market continues to rise. In terms of the policy environment the brewing industry has
been explicitly included in the category of “historical classic industries” gaining policy dividends while facing stricter industry
regulation promoting the market to develop towards standardization and centralization.
(2) Position of the Company in the Industry
China has a long history of baijiu. There are a large number of baijiu production enterprises in the country but the regional
distribution of baijiu consumers is particularly evident. The baijiu industry is characterized by full competition with a high degree of
marketization. The market competition is fierce and the industry adjustments are constantly deepening. In the national market the
competitive edges of the enterprises come from their brand influence product style and marketing & operation models. In a single
regional market the competitive strengths of the enterprises depend on their brand influence in the region the recognition of the
companies by regional consumers and comprehensive marketing capacity.As one of China’s traditional top eight liquor brands the Company is the first listed baijiu company with both A and B stocks. It is
located in Bozhou City Anhui Province in China the hometown of historic figures Cao Cao and Hua Tuo as well as one of the
world’s top 10 liquor-producing areas. No changes have occurred to the main business of the Company in the Reporting Period. As
the main product of the Company the Gujing spirit originated as a “JiuYunChun Spirit” together with its making secrets being
presented as a hometown specialty by Cao Cao a famous warlord in China’s history to Emperor Han Xiandi (name: Liu Xie) in A.D.
196 and was continually presented to the royal house since then. With crystalline liquid rich aroma a fine flavor and a lingering
aftertaste the Gujing spirit has helped the Company win four national baijiu golden awards a golden award at the 13th SIAL Paris
the title of China’s “Geographical Indication Product” the recognition as a “Key Cultural Relics Site under the State Protection” the
recognition with a “National Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Project” a Quality Award from the Anhui provincial
government a title of “National Quality Benchmark” among other honors.In April 2016 Gujing Distillery signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Yellow Crane Tower Distillery opening a new era of
cooperation in China’s famous baijiu industry. Yellow Crane Tower Baijiu is the only famous Chinese baijiu in Hubei. Its unique
style is “soft mellow elegant and cool and has a long lingering fragrance”. It won the two China gold medal in baijiu appreciation
in 1984 and 1989. At present Yellow Crane Tower Distillery has three bases: Wuhan Xianning and Suizhou. Among them Yellow
Crane Tower Baijiu Culture Expo Park in Wuhan base has been approved as national AAA scenic spot and Yellow Crane Tower
Forest Baijiu Town in Xianning base has been approved as national AAAA scenic spot.In January 2021 Gujing Distillery and Mingguang signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The unique mung bean flavor adds to
the famous baijiu family of Gu Jing. The primary products of Mingguang Distillery include Mingguang Jianiang Mingguang Daqu
Mingguang Youye Mingguang Tequ and 53% vol Mingluye. In December 2021 the Old Mingguang Brewing Technique was
selected for the sixth batch of provincial intangible cultural heritage list.
