As shown in the report, the company generated a revenue of CNY266m (USD42m), representing a 45.02% year-on-year growth. Vango attributes the growth to the fact that its training revenue grew by 44%

The net profit attributable to the shareholders of the listed company was CNY19.03m (USD3.01m), an increase of 314.95% compared with the previous year. This is mainly due to the rate of increase in operations revenue exceeding that of management and sales expenditures.

The report also pointed out that Shanghai Vango Sports Center welcomed its first whole operation year in 2017 and that the company established 6 new fencing centers.
