Recently, Youyou Food released its 2025 annual report. The report shows that the company’s 2025 revenue scale hit a new high again.

According to Youyou Food’s 2025 annual report disclosure, the company’s 2025 operating revenue was 1.59B yuan, up 34.39% year over year. Attributable net profit was 186 million yuan, up 17.94% year over year. Both revenue and net profit rose simultaneously. The revenue scale reached the highest level in the same period in history, while net profit was still a bit short of the peak of 226 million yuan in 2020.

In terms of products, the company’s core business—poultry products—achieved revenue of 1.38B yuan. Compared with 48.8k yuan in 2024, it increased by 41.14%, but the gross margin fell by 3.72 percentage points year over year to 24.84%. In addition, the revenue from livestock products increased by 9.84% year over year to 103 million yuan. This shows that Youyou Food has a relatively high dependence on individual products.

Along with the rise in performance, the compensation of the company’s executives also generally increased. The financial report shows that the company’s management’s total compensation in 2025 increased from 4.1916 million yuan in the same period of the previous year to 4.9485 million yuan. Among them, Chairman Lu Youzhong’s 2025 compensation was raised from 1.086 million yuan in 2024 to 1.10 million yuan, which is the highest compensation among the company’s executives, and also the only one whose compensation exceeded 1 million.

Lu Youzhong is already 71 years old this year. In November 2025, he stepped down from his position as the company’s general manager. His nephew, Lu You, took over, possibly in preparation for succession. However, according to Tianyancha, as of the end of 2025, Lu You only held about 48.8k shares of the company, even fewer than the company’s deputy general manager Li Xuehui, who held 316k shares.

In addition, Li Xuehui’s compensation from 2021 to 2025 was 483.6k yuan, 439.2k yuan, 461.8k yuan, 791.8k yuan, and 853.8k yuan, with compensation maintaining an upward trend for four consecutive years. His 2025 compensation was also higher than Lu You’s, whose compensation in 2025 was 682.2k yuan.

Liu Huimin, director of the Food and Consumer Goods division at Operator Finance Network, said that although Youyou Food’s 2025 performance increased, it has a high dependence on a single product—Jiujiao Fengjiao Chicken Feet—and its diversified product layout is clearly lagging behind.
