Ms. Aileen Wang, CEO & Executive Director of DPC Dash commented, "We delivered another year of strong growth in 2025, with revenue increasing 24.8% to RMB5.38 billion and 307 net store openings expanding our footprint to 1,315 stores across 60 cities as of year end. Our 4D strategy continues to drive results across our network. Stores in Tier 1 cities delivered solid growth driven by positive same-store sales growth, demonstrating the resilience and sustained brand strength in our most mature markets. Meanwhile, non-Tier 1 markets now contribute nearly 60% of revenue, with new stores achieving exceptional unit economics and strong capital efficiency. We remain confident in our ability to capture the significant pizza market opportunity while delivering sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders."

Ms. Helen Wu, CFO of DPC Dash, added, "Our 2025 results reflect both strong top-line momentum and enhanced operating efficiency, with adjusted EBITDA growing 28.2% to RMB634.6 million and adjusted net profit increasing 43.3% to RMB187.9 million. These results reflect our consistent cost discipline and targeted store‑level investments, as well as the increasing benefits of scale and efficiency at the corporate level. Looking ahead, supported by our solid balance sheet, we are well positioned to advance our 'Go‑Deeper' and 'Go‑Broader' strategy in a disciplined manner, maintaining a strong focus on efficiency as our footprint expands and stores ramp up."

Key Definitions

  • Store-level operating profit represents revenue less operational costs incurred at the store level, comprising salary-based expense, raw materials and consumables cost, depreciation of right-of-use assets, depreciation of plant and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, variable lease rental payment and short-term rental expenses, utilities expenses, advertising and promotion expenses, store operating and maintenance expenses and other expenses.
  • Store-level operating profit margin is calculated by dividing store-level operating profit by revenue for the same year.
  • Store-level EBITDA is defined as store-level operating profit for the year and adding back depreciation of plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets in store-level.
  • Store-level EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Store-level EBITDA by revenue for the same year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted Net Profit for the year and adding back depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets), income tax expense and interest income and expenses, net.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the same year.
  • Adjusted Net Profit is defined as profit for the year and adding back share-based compensation.
  • Adjusted Net Profit margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Profit by revenue for the same year.
  • Net new store openings. The number of gross new stores opened during the year minus the number of stores closed during the period.
  • Same-store sales growth (SSSG). SSSG compares the sales generated by same stores during the relevant period year-on-year: the SSSG for the year ended December 31, 2025 compares the same-store sales of the year ended December 31, 2025 and that of the year ended December 31, 2024; the SSSG for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compares the same-store sales of the six months ended June 30, 2025 and that of the six months ended June 30, 2024; and the SSSG for the year ended December 31, 2024 compares the same-store sales of the year ended December 31, 2024 and that of the year ended December 31, 2023.

Non-IFRS Measures

To supplement the Group's consolidated financial statements that are presented in accordance with the IFRS, the Group also uses Adjusted Net Profit (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted Net Profit margin (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) as additional financial measures, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS.

"Store-level EBITDA" is defined as store-level operating profit for the year and adding back depreciation of plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets in store-level. "Store-level EBITDA margin" is calculated by dividing Store-level EBITDA by revenue for the same year. "Adjusted Net Profit" is defined as profit for the year and adding back share-based compensation. "Adjusted Net Profit margin" is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Profit by revenue for the same year. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as Adjusted Net Profit for the year and adding back depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets), income tax expense and interest income and expenses, net. "Adjusted EBITDA margin" is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the same year.

The Group believes that these non-IFRS measures facilitate comparisons of operating performance from period to period and company to company. The Group believes that these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Group's results of operations in the same manner as they help the Group's management. However, the Group's presentation of Adjusted Net Profit (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted Net Profit margin (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The use of such non-IFRS measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and shareholders and potential investors of the Company should not consider them in isolation from, or as substitute for analysis of, the Group's results of operations or financial condition as reported under IFRS.
