Exhibit 99.1
XIAMEN, China, April 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hitek Global Inc. (Nasdaq: HKIT) (the "Company"), a China-based information technology consulting and solutions service provider, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Ms. Xiaoyang Huang, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Hitek Global Inc. commented, “Fiscal year 2024 was a year of strategic transition for our company. While we are affected by changes in hardware and tax device sales, we are encouraged by the growth in our CIS software segment following its successful update. As we look ahead, we remain focused on expanding our software and services, driving innovation, and creating long-term value for our customers and shareholders.”
Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results
Revenue
Total revenue was approximately $2.9 million in fiscal year 2024, as compared to approximately $4.6 million in fiscal year 2023, primarily due to the decrease in hardware sales to large customers and decrease in tax devices and services sales, partially offset by an increase in CIS software sales.
| ● | Revenue generated from hardware sales was approximately $1.7 million in fiscal year 2024, as compared to approximately $2.4 million in fiscal year 2023. The decrease was due mainly to the decrease in sales to large customers, for these large customers reduced their procurement and the decrease in our customers’ demands affected by the sluggish economic environment. |
| ● | Revenue generated from Tax devices and service was approximately $0.4 million in fiscal year 2024, as compared to approximately $1.4 million in fiscal year 2023. The decrease was due mainly to Xiamen tax authorities implemented the use of electronic invoices system to replace the traditional tax control system. |
| ● | Revenue generated from CIS software was approximately $0.8 million in fiscal year 2024, as compared to approximately $0.76 million in fiscal year 2023. The increase was due mainly to launch of updated CIS software since March 2024. And we expect it will keep increase in the future. |
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit was approximately $1.0 million in fiscal year 2024, a decrease from approximately $1.9 million in fiscal year 2023. Gross margin was 34.6% in fiscal year 2024, compared to 42.1% in fiscal year 2023. The decrease in profit margin was mainly due to the change in revenue mix, with fewer revenues being generated in 2024 from tax devices and services sales.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were approximately $2.8 million in fiscal year 2024, an increase from approximately $1.8 million in fiscal year 2023.
| ● | Selling expenses were $1,716 in fiscal year 2024, an increase by 164.8% from $648 in fiscal year 2023. The increase in selling expense was mainly attributable to the increase in one-off program marketing and promotion expense. |
| ● | General and administrative expenses increased by 51.3% or $931,782 to $2,751,313 for the year ended December 31, 2024 from $1,819,531 in 2023. The increase was mainly due to (1) the increase of professional service fee of $373,531 resulting from financing from private placement and public offering in 2024, (2) the increase of $362,972 in credit losses primarily resulted from a termination of software development project in 2024; and (3) the increase of $138,972 in donation to a third party. |
Other Income
Other income was $890,201 and $1,493,465 for years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of $569,298 in government subsidy income and the recognition of a one-time deregistration cost of $104,127 related to the deregistration of Huoerguosi Hengda Information Technology Co., Ltd, which was a wholly owned subsidiary of HiTek in PRC, to reduce its related operating cost.
Net Income
Net loss was $896,690 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $1,944,331 from net income of $1,047,641 for 2023.
