CNY million, from each year's annual report on the SEC's EDGAR, the year linked to its filing, on the US GAAP tags the company filed. A line the company does not file under the standard tag is left out rather than estimated. For Dec 2022, Dec 2023, Dec 2024, Dec 2025 the company files only its profit available to ordinary shareholders, after amounts due to holders of preference shares, and that is the figure shown; the other years are the profit attributable to the parent's shareholders. Profit for the year includes the part that belongs to minority shareholders; profit attributable to shareholders is the part EPS is struck on.
