Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
Accelink is the most vertically integrated of the Chinese optical names and ranks fifth globally in the top-ten optical module list published in its 2025 placement prospectus, behind Innolight (first), Eoptolink (third) and Huawei (fourth), ahead of Hisense Broadband, HG Genuine and Source Photonics. The integration is the distinguishing feature: in-house capability across FP, DFB, EML, VCSEL, PD, APD and SiP chip types, and across COB, hybrid integration, planar waveguide and MEMS packaging, running from optical chips through devices and modules to complete subsystems, including an in-house LCoS chip for flex-grid wavelength selective switches. Its product range spans 10G to 800G for cloud and enterprise data centers, with 400G VR4/DR4/FR4/LR4, 800G DR8/2xFR4/LRO/LPO, and 1.6T DR8. FY2025 revenue was RMB 11.929 billion, up 44.20 percent, with net profit attributable RMB 946 million, up 43.10 percent, basic EPS RMB 1.21, driven by surging datacom module demand under the global AI compute wave and heavy domestic cloud spending, with leading bid share among top-tier domestic customers. Q3 2025 net profit of RMB 347 million was an all-time quarterly record, up 35.42 percent year over year and 56 percent sequentially. Q1 2026 revenue was RMB 2.773 billion, up 24.79 percent, net profit RMB 240 million, up 59.76 percent. Operating cash flow rose 353.99 percent in FY2025.
