Knowledge Atlas (02513.HK) shares surged after the company reported that its revenue for the last fiscal year increased by 131.9 percent to RMB724 million.
The annual results, released on April 1, showed rapid growth in key technology segments but also a significant increase in losses for the Hong Kong-listed firm.
According to the filing, revenue from the company’s cloud-based deployment and its open platform and API segments both surged by 292.6 percent year-over-year to RMB190 million each. However, the company’s adjusted net loss widened to RMB3.182 billion. The company did not disclose its earnings per share or any dividend distribution.
The stock price rose as much as 24.9 percent to a new high of $938 before closing at $855.5, a gain of 23.36 percent on the day. The session saw a trading volume of 1.085 million shares, valued at $908 million.
The strong revenue growth, particularly in high-growth cloud and API services, suggests significant market adoption of Knowledge Atlas's technology. However, the widening losses highlight the costs of this expansion and present a challenge for investors looking for a clear path to profitability. The market will be watching for future earnings reports to see if the company can convert its revenue momentum into improved net results.
