Everbright Bank's financial report shows "two sets of data" - significant discrepancies between A-share and H-share branch data spark controversy

Beijing News Shell Finance reports (Reporter Jiang Fan). Recently, the financial reports of China Everbright Bank have drawn market attention. In the performance reports released by the bank on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the asset sizes of some sub-branches differ.

According to the bank’s performance reports published on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the Tianjin sub-branch’s asset size is 59.84B yuan and 101.33B yuan, respectively, in the performance reports on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange; the Shijiazhuang sub-branch’s asset size is 286.7B yuan and 120.27B yuan, respectively; and the Yantai sub-branch’s asset size is 27.47B yuan and 72.6B yuan, respectively.

In addition, the data for sub-branches in the Yangtze River Delta region, the Pearl River Delta region, the central region, some western regions, the Northeast region, and some overseas regions of the bank all show discrepancies.

It is worth noting that, when China Everbright Bank released its 2025 annual report on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, it also released an “H-share announcement.” This announcement is the Hong Kong stock version of the annual report. But in this report, the data of the bank’s sub-branches remains consistent with the A-share version of the annual report.

Which announcement’s data is correct? As of the time this reporter from Shell Finance submitted the story, China Everbright Bank had not yet responded to the reasons for the discrepancies in the relevant data.

Based on the A-share announcement data, in 2025, China Everbright Bank achieved operating revenue of 126.31B yuan, down 6.72% year over year; and attributable net profit of 38.83B yuan, down 6.88% year over year. As of the end of 2025, China Everbright Bank’s non-performing loan ratio was 1.27%, up 0.02 percentage points from the end of the previous year; and its provision coverage ratio was 174.14%, down 6.45 percentage points from the end of the previous year.
