## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**KE Holdings Inc. Releases 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance Report**

BEIJING, April 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KE Holdings Inc. ("**Beike**" or the "**Company**") (NYSE: BEKE; HKEX: 2423), a leading integrated online and offline platform for housing transactions and services, today released its 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance report (the "**2025 ESG Report**"), highlighting Beike's ongoing efforts to strengthen its governance framework, enhance residential service experiences, empower industry participants through technology, and contribute to a sustainable future for the value chain, all underpinned by its mission of "Admirable service, joyful living."

Mr. Stanley Yongdong Peng, Co-founder, Chairman of the Board, and Chief Executive Officer of Beike, commented, "The true significance of Beike lies in the responsibility we choose to undertake for society. This requires us to always put consumer value at the core, collaborate with partners across the value chain to foster a virtuous industry cycle, and actively contribute to a more transparent, well-organized, and sustainable industry ecosystem. We believe this is how Beike creates sustainable value for our shareholders."

**Highlights of Beike's 2025 ESG Achievements:**

**Strengthening Corporate Governance**

Beike continued to reinforce a fair and transparent governance system. The Company incorporated key ESG metrics into executive performance appraisals. Specifically, the remuneration of the Chairman, core management, and key executives is directly linked to climate-related targets, reinforcing accountability for long-term sustainable value creation. In terms of data security, in 2025, Beike's apps for consumer-end users all obtained authoritative information security certifications from China or international organizations.

**Enhancing Service Quality**

Beike continued to enhance its consumer protection framework across the service value chain. The Company launched its "3+3" platform-level service commitments for its home transaction services and rolled out transaction fund safety and risk compensation mechanisms in multiple cities. For home renovation and furnishing services, the Company implemented an innovative renovation fund custody model, under which funds are disbursed in installments upon phased acceptance to safeguard customer funds. In 2025, this model was rolled out across 43 cities nationwide, with over 90% of users adopting the custody arrangement.

**Professional Development for Service Providers**

Beike established a comprehensive and differentiated talent development system, providing agents, store owners, home renovation and home rental service providers with clear career pathways and robust professional capability support, thereby facilitating their professional transformation and value enhancement. In particular, Beike implemented a full-lifecycle training system for *Lianjia* agents, covering key stages of their career from onboarding and development to targeted upskilling and leadership training, achieving a training coverage rate of over 99% and a total learning duration of more than 2.89 million hours in 2025.

**Empowering Services with Technology**

Beike leverages technology as a core engine to transform traditional business processes, enhancing customer experience, empowering service providers, and improving overall operational efficiency. For example, in home renovation and furnishing services, through the application of AI-powered BIM design tools, proposal preparation time was reduced to 15 minutes from four hours, significantly improving efficiency and customer satisfaction. In home rental services, the Company launched an AI-powered home-seeking assistant that enhances the rental experience through intelligent matching, AI-generated listing insights, and real-time support.

**Low-Carbon Operations and Environmental Management**

Beike continued to strengthen its own green and low-carbon management by building an integrated carbon management system with a 95% digitization rate, which supports accurate accounting of greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the Company established management measures for *Lianjia* stores to respond to extreme weather events, enhancing emergency response, strengthening operational resilience, and improving business continuity and service stability. In line with new regulations of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "**Hong Kong Stock Exchange**"), the Company also disclosed climate scenario analysis and financial impact assessments in its ESG Report.

The Company's 2025 ESG Report is available in both English and Chinese. To support environmental conservation, it is strongly recommended to use the electronic version, accessible on the Company's investor relations website at <u>https://investors.ke.com/governance/sustainability</u>.
