Management Commentary

 

Shaofang Weng, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We are pleased to report a 4.1% growth in total revenues to US$77.3 million for the first half of 2024 and a 7.6% increase in net income compared to the same period last year. This growth was primarily driven by a 15.1% increase in offline sales to dealers, which reflects our success in supporting dealers with online sales operations through enhanced warehousing, logistics, and IT systems. North America remained a key market, contributing 61% of our total revenues, with a 3.8% year-over-year increase, fueled by our ability to attract more local dealers with preferential pricing. Additionally, our market expansion in China and Brazil led to a 76.7% increase in revenue from other markets, now representing 5% of our total revenues. Our flexible strategies have enabled us to maintain a competitive edge amid challenging economic conditions in Europe and the US. Looking ahead, we will continue to explore strategic opportunities to optimize production, expand product offerings, and strengthen our sales channels globally.”

 


 

First Half 2024 Financial Results

 

Revenues

 

Total revenues increased by 4.1% to US$77.3 million for the first half of 2024 from US$74.2 million for the same period of 2023. The increase in total revenues was mainly due to an increase in revenues from our offline sales to dealers and online sales to retail customers, partially offset by the decrease in our offline sales to original design manufacturing (“ODM”) customers.

 

Comparison by Sales Channel

 

The following table sets forth our revenue by sales channel for the periods indicated.

 

    For the six months ended
June 30,
    Change  
    2023     2024     Amount     %  
Offline sales to dealers   $ 39,689     $ 45,668     $ 5,979       15.1 %
Offline sales to ODM customers     29,042       25,711       (3,331 )     (11.5 )%
Online sales to retail customers     5,474       5,885       411       7.5 %
    $ 74,205     $ 77,264     $ 3,059       4.1 %

 

Revenue from offline sales to dealers increased by 15.1% from US$39.7 million for the first half of 2023 to US$45.7 million for the same period of 2024, mainly because we continuously expanded our local sales to dealers with online sales operations, utilized our warehousing, logistics and IT system and obtained more orders from dealers. Along with our dealers’ expansion in their online sales business, we achieved significant growth in sales of products to dealers.

 

Revenue from offline sales to ODM customers decreased by 11.5% from US$29.0 million for the first half of 2023 to US$25.7 million for the same period of 2024, which was primarily attributable to less sale orders from some customers having concerns over longer transportation turnover due to limited ocean freight capacity under unfavorable political environment.

 

Revenue from online sales increased by 7.5% from US$5.5 million for the first half of 2023 to US$5.9 million for the same period of 2024, which was primarily due to more new household supply products, such as electric appliances and articles for daily use, being sold through online channels. Such products were manufactured by third parties and procured by the Company for resale in the U.S. and European markets.

Comparison by Area

 

The majority of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 was generated from North America and Europe. The following table sets forth the disaggregation of revenue by area:

 

    For the six months ended
June 30,
    Change  
    2023     2024     Amount     %  
    (in thousands of US$)              
North America   $ 45,779     $ 47,503     $ 1,724       3.8 %
Europe     26,251       25,918       (333 )     (1.3 )%
Others     2,175       3,843       1,668       76.7 %
Total   $ 74,205     $ 77,264     $ 3,059       4.1 %

 

Revenue generated from North America increased by 3.8% from US$45.8 million for the first half of 2023 to US$47.5 million for the same period of 2024, which was primarily attributable to our market expansion in the U.S. and increased sales by attracting more local dealers with preferential pricing, our well-developed warehousing, logistics and IT system and our advanced products.

 

Revenue generated from Europe slightly decreased by 1.3% from US$26.3 million for the first half of 2023 to US$25.9 million for the same period of 2024, as we did not reduce the prices of our products as much as other competitors did while faced with intense price competition, which resulted in customer attrition in Europe.

 

Revenue generated from others increased by 76.7% from US$2.2 million for the first half of 2023 to US$3.8 million for the same period of 2024, resulting from our market expansion in China and Brazil.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues increased by 14.3% to US$49.0 million for the first half of 2024 from US$42.9 million for the same period of 2023. This increase was mainly attributable to the increase of material costs, ocean freight costs and tariff under unstable political and economic environment.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit decreased to US$28.2 million for the first half of 2024 from US$31.3 million for the same period of 2023. Gross margin was 36.5% in the first half of 2024 compared to 42.2% in the same period of 2023, which was primarily due to (i) a decrease of the average sales price to attract more customers; (ii) an increase of sales of household supply products, such as electric appliances and articles for daily use, with relatively low gross margin; and (iii) an increase of ocean freight costs.

Operating Expenses

 

Total operating expenses increased by 4.4% to US$22.4 million for the first half of 2024 from US$21.4 million for the same period of 2023.

 

  Selling expenses in the first half of 2024 increased by 8.0% to US$15.8 million from US$14.6 million in the same period of 2023, which was primarily driven by the increase of freight expenses charged by warehouses of online platforms.

 

  General and administrative expenses in the first half of 2024 increased by 11.8% to US$3.7 million from US$3.3 million in the same period of 2023, which was primarily driven by the increase in payroll expenses of increased headcounts and more expected credit losses accrued.

 

  Research and development expenses in the first half of 2024 decreased by 16.8% to US$3.0 million from US$3.6 million for the same period of 2023, primarily due to less materials consumed in research projects undertaken in the first half of 2024.

  

Other Income and Expenses

 

  Our other non-operating income increased by 33.7% from US$0.8 million for the first half of 2023 to US$1.0 million for the same period of 2024, which was primarily attributable to more sales of scrap and waste as well as more packing, labeling and other services to offline dealer customers.

 

  Fair value loss on derivative instruments was US$1.2 million for the first half of 2024 compared to US$5.5 million for the same period of 2023, primarily due to fluctuations of exchange rate.

 

  Interest expenses, net decreased by US$0.6 million from US$0.8 million for the first half of 2023 to US$0.2 million for the same period of 2024, primarily due to a decrease of interest expenses of US$0.4 million because new loan agreements entered into in the first half of 2024 carried a lower interest rate on average compared with those entered into in the same period of 2023, and an increase of interest income of US$0.2 million with increased cash in bank.

 

Net Income

 

Net income was US$4.3 million for the first half of 2024, compared to US$4.0 million for the same period of 2023. Net income per share was US$0.08 for the first half of 2024, compared to US$0.09 for the same period of 2023.

Transfer of Mezzanine Equity

 

On September 30, 2019, the Company issued 10,526,300 ordinary shares to Xinyu High-Tech Investment Co., Ltd.

The ordinary shares issued to Gaoxin are subject to redemption upon the occurrence of any of the following events (referred to as a “Redemption Event”): (1) the Company fails to successfully complete its initial public offering on either Hong Kong Stock Exchange or Nasdaq Capital Market and New York Stock Exchange before March 31, 2023; (2) its initial public offering price per share is lower than or equal to 1.15 times of the share price paid by Gaoxin; or (3) the shares held by Gaoxin could not trade immediately after completion of the Company’s initial public offering or Gaoxin does not receive the shortest applicable lock-up period for its shares. The date specified in the first Redemption Event was extended for eighteen months to September 30, 2024 through a supplementary agreement entered into between the Company and Gaoxin dated February 18, 2023, without any other modification on the remaining terms. The 10,526,300 ordinary shares were subsequently converted into 10,526,300 Class A ordinary shares of the Company in October 2021.
