The company's revenue and earnings are expected to grow at 24.1% and 33.9% per year respectively, outpacing the Chinese market averages significantly. However, its dividend sustainability is questionable as current cash flows do not adequately cover a 3.31% dividend yield, and its forecasted return on equity in three years is relatively low at 6.7%. Recent corporate activities include shareholder meetings addressing stock repurchase plans and changes in company bylaws to potentially enhance governance structures.
