In the first half of 2026, reported net loss expanded 506.3% year-over-year to RMB 28.80 million, primarily driven by RMB 15.40 million in listing expenses and RMB 2.87 million in share-based payments. Adjusted net loss for 1H2026 stood at RMB 10.53 million compared to an adjusted net loss of RMB 2.76 million in 1H2025.

HDIN Institutional Verdict and Risk-Adjusted Forensic Audit
Forensic audit of historical balance sheets reveals a substantial accounting vulnerability associated with Pre-IPO special redemption rights. Prior to their formal and irrevocable termination *ab initio* on September 9, 2025, recognition of redemption rights as financial liabilities under IFRS would have altered historical equity metrics:

Table FORENSIC RE-AUDIT: IMPACT OF PRE-IPO REDEMPTION LIABILITIES  
Balance Sheet Metric (RMB '000) FY2023 FY2024 FY2025 1H2026
Reported Current Liabilities 119,417 160,678 142,880 149,481
Restated Current Liabilities 422,034 549,990 142,880 149,481
Reported Net Current Assets / (Liabilities) 109,594 111,672 216,096 191,994
Restated Net Current (Liabilities) (193,023) (277,640) 216,096 191,994
Reported Total Net Assets (Equity) 128,024 151,578 257,535 231,606
Restated Total Net (Deficit) (174,593) (237,734) 257,535 231,606
Financial Liability Accretion Costs 24,252 26,695 18,270
Restated Total Comprehensive Loss (63,505) (73,763) (17,531) (28,802)

The definitive derecognition of these redemption features eliminated net deficit overhangs, lifting net assets to RMB 257.54 million by year-end 2025 and RMB 231.61 million as of June 30, 2026. 

Operational working capital dynamics continue to require monitoring. Operating cash flows diverged from reporting profitability in 2025 (CFO of negative RMB 23.16 million versus reported net profit of RMB 0.74 million), driven by trade receivable expansion of RMB 52.40 million and contract liability revenue conversions of RMB 25.55 million. 

DSO expanded from 35 days in 2024 to 87 days in 1H2026 as distributor networks extended to 25 partners with 30-to-90-day credit windows, alongside strategic accounts receiving up to 180 days. Nevertheless, risk mitigation is supported by cumulative ECL provisions of RMB 15.03 million (18.5% coverage of RMB 81.17 million gross AR) and zero customer concentration exceeding 9.9% in 1H2026.

Personal guarantees extended by founders Liu Songtao and Song Tao across bank borrowings (peaking at RMB 10.00 million) and leases (RMB 0.27 million) were released in January 2026, establishing financial operational autonomy. Backlog in the solutions division stood at 21 ongoing projects valued at RMB 52.66 million as of June 30, 2026, supported by historical project tender win rates between 40% and 50%. 

Coupled with a 50% repeat purchase rate in delta robots and a 49% cross-selling rate into heavy-load cobots, Tianjin Chenxing Technology Co., Ltd. presents an operational foundation underpinned by self-funded capital reserves, full R&D expense absorption, and vertically integrated drive architectures.
