• Adjusted EBITDA was approximately US$3.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2025, achieving 40.3% growth with the same period in 2024 (2024: approximately US$2.8 million).

“We are very pleased with our strong first-half results and encouraged by the continuing positive momentum in our business,” said Edwin Chun Yin Wong, Chief Executive Officer. “Driven by robust customer demand and favorable feedback on our recent product developments, along with a healthy pipeline of inquiries, we anticipate continued strong performance through the end of the fiscal year and believe we are well positioned for future revenue growth.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

We use earnings before interest expenses and income, income tax expense/(benefit) and depreciation, and amortization ("EBlTDA”) and adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. EBlTDA represents net profit excluding income tax expense/(benefit), interest expenses, interest income and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss excluding changes in share-based awards expense, income tax expense/(benefit), interest expense, interest income and depreciation and amortization.

We believe that the adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underly trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that we are included in net loss. We believe that adjusted EBITDA provided useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospect and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management uses in its financial and operational decision making, In additions, the company provides EBITDA because we believe that investors and analysts may find it useful in measuring operating performance without regard to items such as income tax expense/(benefit), interest expenses and interest income and depreciation and amortization.
