This change may reflect the challenges faced by the company in the competitive market and its operations.

Key Data in the Financial Report

1. A decrease of approximately 2.9% in total operating revenue indicates increased pressure on the company in attracting customers and maintaining revenue.

2. The net interest income was RMB136.43 million, which partially offset the decline in revenue despite the decrease in operating revenue.

3. Multiple companies in the industry face a lack of revenue growth, and the overall industry environment is unfavorable.

4. Uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, including weak real estate investment and trade friction, may have affected the company's operations.

Peer Comparison

1. Industry-wide analysis: The financial services industry has faced challenges after interest rate hikes and market fluctuations, with many companies experiencing a lack of revenue growth, especially in the capital market environment, where both brokerages and banks have seen a decline in revenue, reflecting a decline in the industry's overall profitability.

2. Peer evaluation analysis: PVBC's total operating revenue has decreased, while other companies in the industry may have seen revenue growth or remain stable, indicating that PVBC's market position may be relatively weak, and further analysis of the revenue changes of peer companies is needed to assess PVBC's competitiveness.

Summary

The decrease in PVBC's operating revenue in 2024 is mainly affected by the intensified competition, unfavorable economic environment, and declining customer demand. In addition, although the net interest income has increased, the overall decline in operating revenue shows the pressure faced by the company.

Opportunities

1. If the company can adjust its products and services to adapt to market changes, it may regain customer attraction and improve operating revenue.

2. With the potential for economic recovery, market confidence may gradually recover, and PVBC has the opportunity to benefit from it.

3. The increase in net interest income provides an opportunity to improve the revenue structure, and if the optimization of fund usage can be sustained, it will help improve overall profitability.

Risks

1. Ongoing market competition may lead to customer loss, further affecting revenue.

2. Uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, including the real estate market and trade friction, may continue to pose a threat to the company's performance.

3. The trend of declining revenue in the industry may put pressure on PVBC's market position, and the risk of intensified competition from peers needs to be watched.
