BEIJING, Apr. 30, 2021 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

On April 28, Yili released its 2020 annual report. According to the data, the 
company's total revenue reached RMB 96.886 billion and net profit attributable 
to the parent company was RMB 7.078 billion, highlighting the company's healthy 
growth trend and excellent profitability. The Q1 2021 report released at the

RMB 27.363 billion, a YOY increase of 32.49%, of which the net profit

Strengthening the Competitive Advantage of the Whole Industry Chain

In terms of products, the Company continued to promote product optimization, 
with the sales revenue of key products recording a YOY increase of 9.6%. In 
addition, Yili has been continuously exploring new growth points through 
innovation. The Company's sales revenue for new products accounted for 16% of

e-commerce platforms, with a YOY growth of 55%. The Company's market share of 
retail sales for UHT milk on e-commerce platforms was 28.1% during the same 
period, ranking first in the UHT milk market segment.

In addition, the Company has steadily promoted its business in Oceania, 
Southeast Asia, and other overseas markets. 

Focus on "Consumers-Oriented" Strategy

Consumers-orientation not only means understanding consumers and attaching 
great importance to them, but also changing the Company's role to be a "true 
fan" of consumers, said Pan Gang.

The Company promoted cooperation across the industry chain, continued to invest 
more in R&D, technology, and innovation, and continuously innovated its product 
categories and accelerated the layout of health business by relying on a global 
network connecting Asia, Europe, Oceania, and the Americas, and using big data 
to gain insights of consumers. 

Creating Common Prosperity of Commercial and Social Value 

After China announced its goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 last 
year, Yili, positively making a response to this call by releasing its own 
vision of carbon neutrality, was the first dairy company committed to do so in 
China. 

In the future, Yili will continue to build a "global health ecosystem", take 
the lead in promoting the sustainable development through the common prosperity 
of both commercial and social value.
