Net profit fell short of a prior estimate but rose 61.3 per cent year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Hong Kong.- Asia Pioneer Entertainment Holdings Limited<\/strong> has released its full-year 2025 results, reporting a net profit of HK$6.13m (US$784,000). While the figure marked a 61.3 per cent increase from HK$3.8m (US$485,000) in the previous year, it fell short of a prior estimate of HK$7.5m <\/a>(US$958,400).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Group-wide revenue was HK$65.84m (US$8.41m), representing a rise of about 29.7 per cent from HK$50.8m (US$6.56m) in 2024. Gross profit increased by 26.8 per cent year-on-year to HK$29.8m (US$3.82m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asia Pioneer attributed the \u201csharp rise in revenue performance\u201d to stronger results in its electronic gaming equipment (EGE) business<\/strong>, driven by growth in technical sales and distribution. Revenue from the segment rose 31.3 per cent to HK$63.7m (US$8.26m), compared with HK$48.5m (US$6.28m) in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technical sales and distribution segment continued to lead revenue performance, generating HK$57m (US$7.39m), up 46.3 per cent year-on-year. However, consultancy and technical services declined to HK$6.7m (US$868,000) from HK$8.8m (US$1.14m), while no revenue was recorded from repair services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gross profit from the EGE business increased to HK$29.0m (US$3.77m), although the margin declined to 45.6 per cent from 47.3 per cent in 2024. Technical sales and distribution accounted for HK$24.1m (US$3.13m) of gross profit, while consultancy and technical services contributed HK$4.9m (US$637,000).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company sold 34 electronic gaming machines in 2025, up from four in 2024. Electronic table game sales rose from 176 to 198 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding regional contributions, Macau<\/strong> led EGE revenue, with sales and distribution in the city reaching HK$51.33m (US$6.65m). Sri Lanka<\/strong> generated HK$2.91m (US$377,000), followed by the Philippines<\/strong> at HK$2.35m (US$305,000), while Taiwan<\/strong>, Malaysia<\/strong> and mainland China contributed smaller revenues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asia Pacific\u2019s second primary business segment, the Smart Vending Machines (VM) <\/strong>division, recorded revenue of about HK$2.2m (US$284,000) and gross profit of HK$0.8m (US$104,000). The group also installed a total of 63 vending machines (VMs) of various types in Macau SAR.
