In February 2025, the Management Committee of Lingang New Area issued “the Action Plan for High-Quality Development of Industry-Education Integration in Lingang New Area of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone (2025-2027)”, explicitly supporting the University in building itself into an industry-education integration university. In December 2025, “Shanghai Lingang Science and Technology Innovation City Construction Plan” was launched, encouraging universities to participate in regional innovation development and bringing the Group opportunities in terms of policy support and resources. At the national level, in February 2026, the Ministry of Education issued the “Opinions of the Ministry of Education on Deepening the Reform of Key Elements in Vocational Education and Teaching”, which focuses on the key links of industry-education integration. In June 2026, the State Council issued the “Education Development Plan for the Fifteenth Five-Year Plan Period” (the “Plan”), which proposes launching the “Dual Excellence” construction of high-level application-oriented undergraduate universities, and leading and driving universities to focus on cultivating distinctive disciplinary specialty clusters around key industrial chains.

As of 31 August 2025, 77.5% of the University’s 2025 graduates were employed in the Yangtze River Delta region and 59.2% in Shanghai, which fully demonstrated the University’s effective integration into the regional development ecosystem through its educational outcomes.

In terms of program and curriculum development, in the 2026/27 school year, the University has introduced two undergraduate majors, namely the Artificial Intelligence and the Electronic Packaging Technology, closely aligning with the demands of key industries such as integrated circuits and artificial intelligence. The University focuses on courses connotative construction, constructs “school level – city level – national level” 3-level courses building system, and enhances practical teaching and quality teaching. In 2025, 12 courses were selected as Shanghai first class undergraduate courses - the number of approved courses showed a YoY increase of 50%, reaching a historic new high. Besides, 26 courses were approved as Shanghai higher education municipal level key courses - the number of approved courses ranked the 7th place among higher education institutions in Shanghai, and thus became the only private university in the top 10. The courses cover various types including “AI+courses” and “industry-education integration courses”. In 2025, the “Fundamentals of Gemstone Geology and Crystallography” course of the College of Jewelry was selected as a “Online/Offline Hybrid First-Class Course”, achieving a breakthrough for the University in the construction of national first-class courses.

Furthermore, the Group has actively explored the deep integration of AI and education, embedded technologies such as AI, 5G, and VR into the teaching process, and initiated the construction of a DeepSeek-based large model for vertical-domain educational applications, thereby creating three intelligent agents for services, management, and teaching. Industry-Education Integration Has Been Further Deepened, While the Diversified Education Ecosystem Has Been Continuously Improved The Group is fully committed to building an industry-education integrated university. It implements a tripartite operational model integrating “academic schools + industrial colleges + corporate entities”, striving to achieve the synergistic development of “industry, academia, research, and innovation” as an integrated whole.

In 2025, the University contracted with 11 overseas famous universities/colleges in Germany, United Kingdom, New Zealand, Thailand and other countries, to expand teachers and students’ overseas exchange channels. As the first private university in Shanghai that has obtained the qualification to recruit international students, the University also attracts international students from many countries around the world and forms an international student education system that combines long-term and short-term programs. The University has a well-established lifelong education system. With the Shanghai “Dual-system” Pilot Base for Continuing Education of Employees in Higher Education Institutions (Incubation) as a platform, the University has built an integrated, multi-field and cross-age lifelong education system for knowledge updating and ability enhancement, covering adult higher education, vocational skills training, and youth science and innovation education.

Financial Position Remains Sound, While the Asset-Liability Structure Has Been Continuously Optimized During the Reporting Period, finance costs of the Group decreased by 69.0% YoY, which was primarily due to the result of early repayment of most of long-term interest-bearing bank borrowings by the end of 2025. As at 30 June 2026, the scale of interest-bearing borrowings decreased to RMB276.7 million, with the gearing ratio remaining at 0.1. The financial position has become more robust.

In the future, we will continue to adhere to the educational philosophy of ‘student-oriented, teaching-centred, undergraduate-focused’ and the work ideology of ‘quality as the core, teaching as the centre, students as the base, teachers as the principal’ to promote the high-quality development of our undertakings. We will also fully capitalize on this historic opportunity by proactively aligning with the national strategy of promoting the high-quality development of vocational education and with Lingang’s regional initiative of becoming a ‘Global Hub of Power’, cultivate more high-quality technical and skilled talents, and accelerate the transformation to an industry-education integration university, and strive to build our University into a first-class private university in China with more unique features and international standing and a long-distance runner for the high-quality development of higher education in China.” About Shanghai Gench Education Group Limited Gench Education (Stock Code: 1525.HK) is a higher vocational education group which provides undergraduate education and junior college education, focusing on high-quality schooling for the provision of excellent education for students.
