FROM THE CHAIRMAN’S DESK
August was a meaningful month for Rhino Group.
Across our businesses, we saw important plans turn into measurable progress. Manufacturing Unit 3 was completed, increasing our production capacity by three times. Rhino Listing crossed 50,000 users, Rhino Tech Media reached 40,000 monthly viewers, and Rhino IT took its first practical step into AI with the launch of the Rhino AI chatbot.
We also strengthened our international presence, welcomed new clients, and made progress in reducing Group debt.
These achievements are more than numbers in a monthly report. Each one reflects the commitment of our teams, the trust of our customers and partners, and the discipline required to keep moving forward.
August has given us stronger foundations for the next stage of our Vision 2030 journey.
AUGUST AT A GLANCE
August brought progress across several important areas of the Group.

Our digital platforms reached more people, while Rhino IT moved our AI plans from concept to initial implementation.

CHAIRMAN’S NOTE
“When we look back at August, what makes us proud is not just what we achieved, but the number of people who came together to make these achievements possible.”
Growth is built through consistent effort.
The completion of a manufacturing unit requires planning and execution. Reaching 50,000 users requires continuous development. Entering new markets requires patience and trust. Building with AI requires the willingness to test, learn, and improve.
Every August milestone reflects that collective effort.
I am proud of our teams for continuing to move forward with commitment and discipline. I am equally thankful to our customers, partners, and supporters whose trust continues to strengthen our journey.
At the same time, every milestone brings greater responsibility.
More capacity means we must serve better. More users mean we must create more value. New markets mean we must understand them better. New technology means we must use it responsibly.
As we move into the months ahead, our focus remains simple:
Build stronger. Think bigger. Stay disciplined. Keep learning.
Vision 2030 is no longer simply a long-term ambition. It is being built through the decisions, investments, and execution taking place today.
August has added another important chapter to that journey.
Thank you to everyone who continues to be part of it.
We Are Rhino Group.
