ADO's business mainly includes domestic Guonan grid power distribution business, base station and data center power supply services for the three major domestic telecom operators and leading Internet companies, overseas data center business, power distribution business, and small-scale energy storage business. Benefiting from the explosive growth of AI, domestic and overseas data center demand has entered an explosion period. The company has obtained orders from strategic customers such as Universal Data and Byte, and is actively developing large-scale customers. Data center orders reached 2.3 billion in 2025, and 1 billion is expected to confirm revenue this year. There is room for the company's data center business orders and revenue to double next year. ADO's business is entering a phase of explosive growth.
Weisheng Holdings and Boyu Investment cooperate to forge strong alliances to accelerate business development

Boyu Investment, founded in 2011, is an alternative asset management company that is deeply involved in the Chinese market and has a global layout. Boyu has offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai and Singapore, invested in more than 200 companies, and built a diversified investment management platform covering private equity, open markets, infrastructure and venture capital.

Profit forecast: According to the bank's profit forecast, the company's net profit growth rate in 2025 and 2026 was over 30%. Considering that data center business requirements drive strong growth in the company's overall performance, and that the data center power supply and distribution business is strongly correlated with AI development, the bank believes that the company's valuation has more room for improvement compared to traditional meter business valuations, and that the company's valuation should be higher than that of intercompany meter companies. According to public information, ADO's business subsidiary Weiyuan Energy is also promoting an A-share listing. The bank believes that if successfully listed, it will further release the company's value.
Risk warning: Data center business implementation is slower than expected; overseas market business growth is slower than expected; China Grid and China Southern Power Grid procurement tender volume and price falls short of expectations; market competition intensifies.
