R&T’s performance in the first half of 2022 was bright.

At the earnings level, R&T’s first-half net profit has recovered and exceeded the level of the same period in 2019 before the epidemic, and the increase has continued to expand. This reflects good corporate profitability.

Second, Q2’s profitability improved significantly, and good control of expenses. Obviously, this is also the capital market’s objective evaluation of R&T’s performance in the first half of the year.
