Recently, New Hope Dairy disclosed its 2025 performance. The report shows that the company achieved double growth in profitability in 2025 with an impressive performance, and the compensation of its executives was also increased accordingly.

The company’s 2025 annual report released by New Hope Dairy shows that in 2025, the company achieved full-year operating revenue of RMB 11.233 billion, a year-on-year increase of 5.33%. The revenue scale ranks just below Yili, Mengniu, Bright Dairy, and Junlebao, and the company has long been positioned in China’s dairy enterprises’ “second tier.” At the same time, the company’s net profit attributable to shareholders in 2025 was RMB 731 million, up 35.98% year over year. Both revenue and net profit rose, reversing the situation in 2024 where the company’s profit increased but its revenue did not.

With performance growth, most of the company’s management compensation also increased. Among them, the general manager Zhu Chuan’s compensation over the past five years was RMB 1.912 million, RMB 1.949 million, RMB 1.951 million, RMB 1.977 million, and RMB 2.603 million, respectively.

It can be seen that over the past five years, Zhu Chuan’s compensation has remained on an upward trend. However, during the four-year period from 2021 to 2024, the increase in his compensation was not that significant; over those four years, the total increase was only RMB 65,000. In 2025, however, Zhu Chuan’s compensation rose by RMB 656,000 in a single year, which is also the largest pay raise among the company’s executives.

Apart from Zhu Chuan, the company’s vice president Zhang Shu’s 2025 compensation was RMB 1.983 million. Compared with RMB 1.801 million in 2024, it increased by RMB 182,000. Meanwhile, the finance负责人 Chu Yanan’s 2025 compensation was raised from RMB 1.082 million in 2024 to RMB 1.365 million, and the board secretary Zheng Shifeng received a pay raise of nearly RMB 300,000 to RMB 1.346 million.

It is worth mentioning that New Hope Dairy also disclosed its 2025 profit distribution plan. The company plans to distribute cash dividends of RMB 3.80 per 10 shares to all shareholders, with total dividends of about RMB 327 million. And according to Tianyancha, as of the end of 2025, Zhu Chuan held 2.303 million shares of the company. That means Zhu Chuan can also receive about RMB 875,100 in dividends.

Liu Huimin, head of the Food and Consumer Goods Department at Operator Finance Network, said: “New Hope Dairy’s 2025 revenue and net profit reached new highs again. Under these circumstances, it is very normal for management compensation to rise.”
