HONG KONG, Sept. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Top Wealth Group Holding Limited $(TWG)$ ("Top Wealth" or the "Company"), a company that specializes in supplying premium-class sturgeon caviar, today announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
First Half 2025 Financial Results
Sales
Sales for the first half 2025 were $4.2 million, representing a decrease of 5.6% from $4.4 million in the same period of 2024. During the period we have rebuilt our wine distribution business.
Total cost and operating expenses were $1.8 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease of 64.7% from $5.0 million in the same period of 2024.
-- Cost of sales was $0.8 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease of
61.5% from $2.1 million in the same period of 2024.
-- The decrease in the cost of sales was mainly attributable to the
Company's effective cost management and a streamlined procurement
process.
-- Selling expenses were $0.7 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease
of 8.6% from $0.8 million in the same period of 2024.
-- Administrative expenses were $0.2 million in the first half of 2025, a
decrease of 88.6% from $2.1 million in the same period of 2024. The
significant decrease was mainly due to the leaving of the Company's sales
team in 2024.
Profit (and Loss) Before Income Tax
Profit before income tax was $2.4 million for the first half of 2025, compared with the Loss before income tax of $0.6 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in profit before income tax was mainly due to the Company efforts in cost management and rebuilding of its wine distribution business.
Net Profit (and Loss)
Net Profit was $2.4 million, compared with a net loss of $0.5 million in the same period of 2024, which was mainly due to the factors mentioned above.
Earnings (and Loss) per Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share" ("ASC 260"). Each of the Company's B Share has voting rights equal to thirty A Shares of the Company. Except for voting rights, A Shares and B Shares rank pari passu with one another and have the same rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the first half of 2025, the Company reported a net profit of $2.4 million, a negative operating cash flow of $28,759 and retained earnings of approximately $4.7 million. The Company's principal sources of liquidity are sales revenues, proceeds from an initial public offering and a registered direct offering. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $13,621.
Management is actively managing its outstanding accounts receivable, and carefully planning its operations. The Company may also seek equity financing from outside investors when necessary.
Management believes that the above-mentioned policies and measures will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to meet its future liquidity and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Exchange Rate
The Company's principal place of operations is Hong Kong.

The Company's consolidated financial statements are reported using U.S. Dollar ("US$" or "$"). The consolidated statements of income and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period.
