High-end product share exceeds 30%, profit growth hits recent highs, and dividend payout ratio significantly increases—Nanjing Steel Co., Ltd. (600282) delivers a substantial 2025 performance report. On the evening of March 16, the company announced its annual report, showing that in 2025, it achieved operating revenue of 57.994 billion yuan and net profit attributable to shareholders of 2.867 billion yuan, up 26.83% year-over-year.

Matching the performance growth, the company has significantly increased shareholder returns. Building on the cash dividends already paid in mid-2025, the company plans to distribute a cash dividend of 1.372 yuan (tax included) per 10 shares to all shareholders in the second half of the year, with a dividend payout ratio of 60.22%. The total cash dividends for the year amount to 1.577 billion yuan, accounting for 55% of the net profit attributable to the parent company, marking a clear increase in dividend levels compared to previous years.

As a company focused on premium special steel, Nanjing Steel’s R&D investment in 2025 reached 2.335 billion yuan, accounting for 4.03% of operating revenue. The high-intensity R&D efforts are accelerating the transformation into core competitiveness. Acid-resistant pipeline steel has become the company’s third “manufacturing industry champion product” and is the first domestic enterprise to pass Saudi Aramco certification and supply to its offshore engineering projects.

From a product structure perspective, advanced steel materials have become the “ballast stone” for profit growth. In 2025, sales of such products reached 2.8265 million tons, an increase of 8.09% year-over-year, accounting for 30.45% of total steel product sales, with a 2.42 percentage point increase. Notably, advanced steel materials contributed a gross profit of 3.004 billion yuan with a gross margin of 20.88%, nearly half of the company’s total steel product gross profit.

While focusing on its main business, Nanjing Steel is building a complex industrial chain ecosystem that empowers the steel industry through three major directions: industrial chain integration, intelligent manufacturing services, and green low-carbon initiatives. Looking ahead, the company states it will continue to accelerate the cultivation of new quality productivity driven by “high intelligence and green development,” and establish itself as a globally competitive advanced materials intelligent manufacturer.
