In overseas markets, WPS Office has introduced two major features: an end-cloud integrated cross-device synchronization function and an AI-embedded document assistant. The end-cloud integration ensures seamless connectivity across devices, while the AI assistant consolidates full-text translation, spell-checking, and intelligent polishing, supporting translation across more than 100 languages. These initiatives are accelerating the expansion of AI services among international users.

For the first half of 2026, revenue from the office software and services segment totaled RMB 3.313 billion, up 25% from the prior year. Each key business area grew at varying rates. The steady growth in WPS personal business is primarily attributed to improved AI capabilities, which have enhanced user experience and product value, thereby driving higher payment conversion rates. The robust performance of WPS 365 can be credited to the continuous upgrades of AI-driven products and the widespread adoption of AI capabilities across enterprise business scenarios. Meanwhile, growth in the WPS software business benefits from the sustained release of demand in the information and innovation sector, alongside the deeper implementation of digital and intelligent solutions among government and enterprise clients.

Research and development costs for the first half of 2026 amounted to RMB 1.873 billion, an increase of 11% year-on-year. This rise is primarily due to an increase in headcount within the office software and services business, reflecting the group's ongoing strategic commitment to technological and product innovation.
