According to www.minichart.com.sg, Digital China Holdings Limited (DC Holdings, Stock Code: 00861.HK) released its 2025 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report on April 23, 2026 — marking a pivotal milestone in its 25-year history and underscoring deep integration of ESG principles with its core Data × AI strategy.
AI-Driven Supply Chain Transformation
DC Holdings has embedded its XiaoJin intelligent agent cluster into core supply chain operations. During peak periods — including the Double 11 shopping festival — the system delivered measurable gains: order processing capacity increased by 280%, parcel dwell time reduced by one hour, and operational efficiency improved by 50–70%. These advances reflect a strategic shift from AI as support tool to AI as process architect — formalized under the company’s new “AI for Process” philosophy.
The Yanyun 3.0 model (“AI First FDE”) enables end-to-end AI integration across client business processes, from pre-sales to contract signing. According to the report, this has improved operational efficiency by 30–50 times and accelerated project execution — developments with direct implications for revenue growth and cost structure optimization.
Green IT and Circular Economy Milestones
In H2 2025, DC Holdings launched a green IT equipment recycling business, achieving a recovered equipment value of RMB 50–60 million. The closed-loop system — “Recycling – Refurbishment – Reuse” — supports carbon reduction targets and electronic waste mitigation. For the first time, the report discloses granular GHG emissions data: total emissions were 7,809 tCO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 267 tCO2e — a 51% year-on-year decrease. Packaging materials recycled for customers reached 58 tonnes, representing a YoY increase of 6,344%.
ESG Recognition and Capital Market Engagement
DC Holdings earned an AA rating from Sino-Securities Index and scored 42 in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment — well above the industry average of 34. In 2025, the company held over 240 face-to-face investor meetings, engaged more than 300 institutions, and generated 30,000 media reports and 70 million views. R&D investment totaled RMB 563 million, intellectual property rights exceeded 3,400, and the Group led or co-authored 225 standards.

Governance and Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors assumes full responsibility for ESG strategy, risk assessment, targets, and performance review. The Audit Committee — composed entirely of independent directors — conducts regular ESG reviews. Anti-corruption training achieved 100% employee coverage for three consecutive years. All non-OEM suppliers signed Integrity and Ethical Cooperation Agreements — also at 100% compliance. The Group identified 51 ESG-related risks in 2025, up from 39 the prior year, including newly recognized risks tied to generative AI deployment and supply chain decarbonization.
