Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Significant events
- “As announced in September 2024, Haitong Securities Group and Guotai Junan Securities Group merged. This involved a share swap, with Guotai Junan absorbing Haitong by issuing new shares to Haitong's investors in mainland China and Hong Kong. The consolidation aims to create a significant brokerage entity valued at approximately $230 billion in assets. As part of an internal group restructuring following the merger between Haitong Securities Group and Guotai Junan Securities Group, a decision has been made that the business operations, assets, liabilities and contractual arrangements of Haitong International (UK) Limited (the "Company") will be transferred to Guotai Haitong Securities (UK) Limited ("GTHTUK"). This transfer occured in April 2026.”
