Moreover, Minimax’s models excel across various modalities. According to Artificial Analysis,
Minimax’s models ranked the top 15 across text, video, and speech benchmarks. And we expect
Minimax to maintain its competitiveness across multiple modalities, underpinned by its strong
R&D capabilities, talent density and efficient organizational structure.
Figure 5: Minimax: … and excels in multiple modality
Source: Artificial Analysis, CMBIGM Note:
data as of 8 Jun 2026
To fully utilize the multi-modal capabilities of Minimax’s models, Minimax introduced MMX- CLI
in Apr 2026, an all-modal command-line tool developed for AI agents. Agents can directly invoke
it in environments such as Claude Code or OpenClaw without building an MCP server, supporting
for text, image, video, speech, music generation, and visual understanding capabilities.

Minimax M3, Minimax’s latest foundational model, is a natively multimodal model that has
undergone mixed-modality training from Step 0 and supports muti-modal input. This training
approach, with text and other modalities interleaved within a sequence, allows Minimax M3 to: 1)
achieve deep alignment between textual and visual semantic spaces; 2) scale the training data to the
order of 100 trillion tokens.
Cost optimization: strong cost efficiency of model training and inference
MiniMax M Series models also strike an optimal balance between performance and costs, by
adopting an advanced architecture. The API pricing of MiniMax-M2 was US$ per million
input tokens and US$ per million output tokens, equivalent to only % of the price of
leading overseas models. And running agents on Minimax continuously for one hour at an
output speed of 100 tokens per second costs only US$1, and 4 agents can operate continuously for
an entire year with a budget of US$10,000. Minimax and M3 further enhanced its
performance and cost efficiency, underpinned by the innovation in architecture: according to
Artificial Analysis, MiniMax-M3 and are in the most attractive quadrant of cost to run
intelligence.
Figure 7: Minimax-M3 & in the most attractive quadrant of cost to run intelligence
Source: Artificial Analysis, CMBIGM Note:
data as of 8 Jun 2026
To improve context scaling and agentic capabilities, Minimax M3 model innovated on the
attention mechanism and introduced Minimax Sparse Attention (MSA) architecture. The MSA
architecture can partition the KV into blocks more precisely, achieving higher effective context
coverage. This allows M3's per-token compute to be just 1/20 that of the previous- generation
model. Minimax M3 Model achieved a speed up of over 9x in the prefilling stage and over 15x in
the decoding stage, while the MSA also matched full attention on the vast majority of capabilities.

Industry analysis: enormous addressable market for
foundational model providers
Since the GPT-3 launched in 2020, the foundation model industry has undergone rapid
development, significantly improving the model intelligence and accelerating monetization of AI
applications:
1) expansion of model scale: OpenAI’s GPT-3 was launched in 2020 with only 175bn parameters,
while more advanced and latest models like Gemini 3 and significantly outperformed it
with much larger model scale and better intelligence. This improvement was primarily thanks to
the introduction of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, which allows foundation models to
expand scale while keeping computational cost and latency low.
2) improving context windows and reasoning efficiency: Claude’s 100,000-token context window
enables interaction with ultra-long documents, compared to GPT-3 which only supported a context
window of ,048 tokens. Besides, the improvement to attention mechanism further improves the
reasoning efficiency, allowing models to process long context at reasonable costs.
3) alignment with humans: RLHF (reinforcement learning from human feedback) allows
foundation models to be more receptive to user prompts, enhances response quality and improve
accuracy.
4) emergence of CoT (chain-of-thought) and reasoning models: the CoT prompting technique and
reasoning models lead to a divergence in future model development: one class of models will be
optimized for fast and factually accurate responses, while the other will focus on deeper and more
resource-intensive reasoning.
As the intelligence level of foundation model continues to advance, AI currently achieves the level
of Agents, which can take actions based on users’ prompt.

revenue, according to CIC. That said, supported by its SOTA multi-modal model capabilities and
diversified AI applications, we expect Minimax will continue to gain market share in the global
foundation model market.

Minimax launched Minimax M3 model in Jun 2026, the first open-weight model with three SOTA
capabilities: 1) Coding and Agentic: Minimax M3 scored % on SWE Bench pro, surpassing
(%) and Gemini Pro (%), which demonstrated its strong capability in coding
and automated workflows; 2) 1M tokens context window: Powered by the proprietary MiniMax
Sparse Attention (MSA) architecture, Minimax M3 API supports up to 1M tokens context window
with a guaranteed minimum of 512K tokens. The 1M context is the infrastructure for long-range
Agent tasks, long-range Coding, and long- video understanding; 3) Native multimodality:
Minimax M3 is a natively multimodal model, with multimodal training from step zero and
pretraining data up to 100T+. The model supports image and video input, and can operate on a
desktop computer.

Supported by its innovative architecture and strong cost efficiency, Minimax M3 model continued
to maintain its pricing advantages vs. Qwen , equivalent to only % of
that of the . Meanwhile the blended API pricing of M3 model increased by 2-3 times
compared to model, which should support GPM expansion of the company in our view.

Minimax: financial forecast and valuation
Driven by the strong demand for AI Native Products and Minimax’s multi-modal capabilities, we
expect Minimax’s total revenue to grow by 260%/161%/135% YoY to US$285/743/1,748mn in
FY26E/27E/28E. AI Native Products/Open Platform and Other AI- based Enterprise Services will
each account for 45%/55% of total revenue in FY28E, vs. 67%/33% in FY25.
For the AI Native Products, we forecast its revenue to increase by 164%/148%/127% YoY to
US$140/347/788mn in FY26/27/28E (49%/47%/45% of total revenue), primarily driven by the
robust revenue growth of Hailuo AI and Minimax agent applications.
For the Open Platform and Other AI-based Enterprise Services, we expect its total revenue to grow
by 458%/173%/143% YoY to US$145/396/960mn in FY26/27/28E (51%/53%/55% of total
revenue), mainly fuelled by the rapid growth of token consumption of M series models and the
Coding Plan. The average daily token consumption of M2 series text models has grown to over six
times in Feb 2026, compared to that of Dec 2025, with token consumption from Coding Plan up by
over ten times.

Operating efficiency and margin analysis
We estimate overall GPM to expand from % in FY25 to %/%/% in FY26/27/28E,
mainly attributable to the revenue mix shift to higher-margin Open Platform business, economies
of scale and the improving pricing power of Minimax models.

Despite continuous R&D investment, we expect R&D expenses ratio to decline from 320% in
FY25 to 170%/95%/55% in FY26/27/28E, thanks to the operating leverage. We expect S&M
expenses ratio to drop from 66% in FY25 to 30%/15%/8% in FY26/27/28E, as the company
executes product-lead strategy and reduce investment in user acquisition. We also model G&A
expenses to decline from 47% in FY25 to 24%/11%/5% in FY26/27/28E, supported by the
improved efficiency.
Supported by the operating leverage and enhanced efficiency, we expect adjusted net margin to
improve from -317% in FY25 to -148%/-64%/-19% in FY26/27/28E. Overall adjusted net loss will
widen from US$251mn in FY25, to US$423/479/324mn in FY26/27/28E.

Investment risks
Fierce competition in the LLM industry
The LLM industry is highly competitive. Minimax not only competes against global leading
technology companies with strong financial resources and tech infrastructure, but also competes
against AI Labs with high talent intensity and agile organisational structure. The company needs to
continuously innovate and invest to maintain its competitive position. Otherwise, the intensifying
competition may result in slower revenue growth, loss of market share and impaired profitability.
Relatively low floating share base
The company has a relatively low floating share base of as of 1 Jun 2026, which
represented % of total share base. Meanwhile, shares (% of total share base) held
by the pre-IPO and cornerstone investors will exit lock-up period on 9 July 2026. The end of lock-up
period may trigger profit-taking actions of certain investors, potentially leading to selling pressure
on the shares, in our view.
Continuous investment in R&D may affect profitability and cash flow
Minimax’s success depends on its continuous investments in LLM and AI applications to meet
customers’ demand. The company’s R&D expenses were US$70/189/253mn in FY23/24/25,
accounting for 2,023/619/320% of total revenue. Due to the investment, the company recorded adj.
net loss of US$89/244/251mn, and operating cash outflow of US$64/258/280mn in FY23/24/25.
As the LLM industry is subject to constant technological advances and intensive competition, the
company expects to continue to invest in R&D, which may adversely affect profitability and cash
flow.
Failure to attract and retain key talents may affect R&D and operation
The market for high-caliber AI talent is highly competitive. The company needs to attract, retain
and motivate key personnels in the form of cash and stock-based compensation. Unexpected
departure of key employees, including senior executives or core technical personnel, could disrupt
the company’s operations, delay product development or strategic initiatives, and result in the loss
of valuable institutional knowledge.
Evolving regulations may adversely affect business operation
Regulations for AI and LLM industry is evolving rapidly. Minimax is subject to a series of laws
and regulations that will continue to evolve in the future, such as Provisions on the Administration
of Deep Synthesis of Internet-Based Information Services, Interim Measures for the Administration
of Generative Artificial Intelligence Services, and Measures for the Identification of AI-Generated
and Synthesized Content. Non-compliance with the regulations may result in warning, fine, and
suspension in operations.
