Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2024

Total net revenues in the 2024 fiscal year increased by 20.9% to US$5.9 million, from US$4.9 million in the 2023 fiscal year, primarily due to the combined impact of: (1) the newly acquired renewable energy business in November 2024 which led to an increase of renewable energy products revenue, and (2) rentals of idle office space, which has also generated rental revenue during the year and promoted revenue growth. Besides that, all other businesses are relatively stable.

Cost of revenues in the 2024 fiscal year decreased by 78.3% to US$4.7 million, from US$21.6 million in the 2023 fiscal year, which is primarily due to VAT recoverable impairment of US$16.7 million, which was recognized in cost of revenue in 2023, as it is expected that VAT will not be recovered in the foreseeable future. In a market with both opportunities and risks, we constantly adjust our development strategy, allocate resources, and control costs and expenses based on changes in the market condition in order to avoid unnecessary expenses.

Gross profit in the 2024 fiscal year was US$1.2 million, compared to a gross loss of US$16.7 million in the 2023 fiscal year.

Total operating expenses in the 2024 fiscal year decreased by 14.6% to US$31.6 million, from US$36.9 million in the 2023 fiscal year, primarily due to the combined impact of a decrease in selling expenses, an increase in general and administrative expenses, and a decrease in impairment.

   -- Selling expenses in the 2024 fiscal year decreased by 41.6% to US$1.1 
      million, from US$1.9 million in the 2023 fiscal year, mainly due to a 
      decrease in sales staff salaries, which is also the result of the 
      Company's continuously adjusting its strategic policies based on changes 
      in the market situation, while reducing costs and increasing efficiency. 
 
   -- General and administrative expenses in the 2024 fiscal year increased by 
      4.9% to US$30.5 million, from US$29.0 million in the 2023 fiscal year, 
      primarily due to increases in expenses for exploring new markets and 
      businesses, as well as related investments in the renewable energy 
      business. 
 
   -- Impairment of intangible assets was not recorded for the 2024 fiscal year, 
      compared to US$3.7 million in the 2023 fiscal year. 
 
   -- Impairment of goodwill was not recorded for the 2024 fiscal year, 
      compared to US$2.3 million in the 2023 fiscal year.

Loss from operations in the 2024 fiscal year was US$30.4 million, compared to loss from operations of US$53.6 million in the 2023 fiscal year.

Interest income in the 2024 fiscal year was US$11.4 million, compared to US$11.9 million in the 2023 fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to reduction in the interest rate.

Other income in the 2024 fiscal year was US$0.3 million, compared to US$1.1 million in the 2023 fiscal year. Other income in 2023 was primarily due to the Company taking possession of customer deposits collected from previous years as a result of defaults by customers under their respective contracts with the Company in 2023.

Net loss in the 2024 fiscal year was US$20.9 million, compared to US$38.0 million in the 2023 fiscal year.
