Mr. Guofu Ye, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of MINISO, commented, “We capped off a remarkable 2024 with another quarter of solid operating and financial performance, achieving a record high revenue of around RMB17.0 billion in the Full Year. Revenue from MINISO brand in mainland China in December Quarter accelerated from September quarter. In retrospect of the Full Year, the year-over-year growth of revenue from MINISO brand in mainland China was 10.9%, sustaining a double-digit year-over-year growth on the basis of 36.2% year-over year growth in 2023. Overseas markets remained strong momentum with year-over-year revenue growth of 41.9% from MINISO brand in overseas markets in the Full Year. Notably, compound annual growth rate of revenue from MINISO brand in overseas markets exceeds 40% from 2021 to 2024. Overseas revenue contribution under MINISO brand climbed to 39.4% this year, underscoring higher growth potential and the flexibility unlocked by our globalization strategy.
In 2024, we added a record 1,200 net new stores globally, surpassing both our initial expectations and our previous record of net new stores created in 2023. Our global footprint expansion accelerated this year, as evidenced by the fact that store opening in overseas markets outpaced domestic markets and the fastest store opening pace in overseas markets ever, celebrating a milestone of 3,000 overseas MINISO stores as at the end of 2024.”
“2024 marked a pivotal year as we immersed ourselves in globalization strategy and evolved as a “Super Brand”. MINISO Group insists on interest-driven consumption, IP product innovation, and globalization strategy. We are well positioned to capture opportunities during retail transformation and exert influences on IP cooperation, product innovation and consumption experience. We will solidify MINISO’s leadership in the global retailing industry, propelling ourselves toward our vision to become the world’s No.1 IP design retail group.” Mr. Ye continued.
Mr. Eason Zhang, CFO of MINISO, commented, “2024 has marked the first full fiscal year we disclosed since the change of year end. Thanks to our solid execution of IP and globalization strategies, gross margin on the group level has climbed for eight consecutive quarters, marking both quarterly and annual records. Adjusted diluted EPS grew 16.0% year over year. Adjusted net profit grew 15.4% year over year to RMB2.72 billion, with adjusted net profit margin of 16.0%. Our cash position was RMB6.7 billion as of the end of 2024. Dividends paid to the shareholders and share repurchases in 2024 were RMB1.6 billion, compared with RMB1.0 billion in 2023. We would like to express sincere gratitude to our shareholders and were thrilled to announce a final dividend in the amount of around RMB0.74 billion, which was approximately 50% of the adjusted net profit generated in the second half of 2024, payable in April.
It is worth highlighting that MINISO Group managed to achieve ESG MSCI rating improvements for three consecutive years and obtain MSCI “AA” rating with top-tier performance in multiple topics. Moving forward, we will continue to implement sustainable development into our daily operation, adhere to longtermism and stick to balanced capital allocation strategy as we focus on delivering more sustainable, stable and foreseeable returns to our shareholders.”
“Looking into 2025, we are optimistic about top-line acceleration given current market dynamics and solid execution of growth initiatives. We will prioritize same-store sales growth and improve sales per square meter through further optimizing store layouts, refining assortments, etc. Meanwhile, we aim to improve store economics through various measures including disciplined spending. Combined with continuous gross margin expansion, we strive to maintain a reasonable and healthy profit margin over the long term.” Mr. Zhang concluded.

Financial Results for the Full Year
Revenue was RMB16,994.0 million (US$2,328.2 million), representing an increase of 22.8% year over year, primarily driven by an 18.3% year-over-year increase in average store count.
Revenue from MINISO brand increased by 22.0% to RMB16,002.6 million (US$2,192.3 million), driven by (i) an increase of 10.9% in revenue from MINISO brand in mainland China, and (ii) an increase of 41.9% in revenue from MINISO brand in overseas markets. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to an increase of 21.8% in average store count, coupled with a mid-single digit same-store sales growth of MINISO overseas markets. The overseas revenue contributed 41.7% of revenue from MINISO brand, compared to 35.9% in 2023.
Revenue from TOP TOY brand increased by 44.7% to RMB983.5 million (US$134.7 million), primarily powered by a low-single digit same-store sales growth and a rapid growth in average store counts.

Gross margin reached historical high of 44.9%, representing an increase of 3.7 percentage points. The year-over-year increase in gross margin was primarily due to (i) higher revenue contribution from overseas directly operated markets which accounted for 56.7% of revenue from MINISO brand in overseas markets, compared to 48.4% in 2023 on a comparable basis(1), (ii) higher gross margin of TOP TOY due to a shift in product mix towards more profitable products.

Excluding share-based compensation expenses, selling and distribution expenses were RMB3,506.1 million (US$480.3 million), increased by 58.5% year over year. The year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to the Company’s investments into directly operated stores to pursue the future success of the Company’s business, especially in strategic overseas markets such as the U.S. market. As of December 31, 2024, total number of directly operated stores in overseas markets was 505, doubling such figure compared to a year ago. In the Full Year, revenue from directly operated stores has also doubled, while related expenses including rental and related expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses together with payroll excluding share-based compensation expenses increased 72.2%.

Exchange Rate
The U.S. dollar (US$) amounts disclosed in this press release, except for those transaction amounts that were actually settled in U.S. dollars, are presented solely for the convenience of the readers. The conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into US$ in this press release is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of December 31, 2024, which was RMB7.2993 to US$1.0000. The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based on the RMB amounts.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In evaluating the business, MINISO considers and uses adjusted net profit, adjusted net margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share and adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of these non-IFRS financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. MINISO defines adjusted net profit as profit for the period excluding equity-settled share-based payment expenses. MINISO calculates adjusted net margin by dividing adjusted net profit by revenue for the same period. MINISO defines adjusted EBITDA as adjusted net profit plus depreciation and amortization, finance costs and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the period. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS by dividing adjusted net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the number of ADSs represented by the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis. MINISO computes adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share in the same way as it calculates adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per ADS, except that it uses the number of ordinary shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation on an IFRS basis as the denominator instead of the number of ADSs represented by these ordinary shares.
MINISO presents these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate its operating performance and formulate business plans. These non-IFRS financial measures enable the management to assess its operating results without considering the impacts of the aforementioned non-cash and other adjustment items that MINISO does not consider to be indicative of its operating performance in the future. Accordingly, MINISO believes that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as the management and board of directors.
These non-IFRS financial measures are not defined under IFRS and are not presented in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-IFRS financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect MINISO’s operations. Further, these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from the non-IFRS information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to profit, net profit margin, basic and diluted earnings per share and basic and diluted earnings per ADS, as applicable, or any other measures of performance or as indicators of MINISO’s operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review MINISO’s historical non-IFRS financial measures in light of the most directly comparable IFRS measures, as shown below. The non-IFRS financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing MINISO’s data comparatively. MINISO encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
For more information on the non-IFRS financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.
