This 6-K provides the unaudited interim financial results for the first half of 2025, detailing the impact of the restatement previously disclosed in the 20-F filed on the same day. While the company managed to significantly reduce its net loss compared to the restated prior year period, a substantial increase in credit impairment losses indicates ongoing challenges with asset quality. The continued decline in loans to customers also points to a contraction in the core lending business. Investors should monitor the company's ability to manage credit risk and stabilize its loan portfolio in future reports.
