Decent Holding Inc. Reports FY2025 Financial Results

About this update from Decent Holding Inc.

YANTAI, China , March 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Decent Holding Inc. (Nasdaq: DXST) (“Decent“ or the ”Company“), an established wastewater treatment services provider in China , today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 . Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Highlights Total revenue for fiscal year 2025 increased by 12.2% to US$12.9 million , from US$11.5 million for fiscal year 2024. Revenue from wastewater treatment service increased by 68.7% to US$4.2 million from US$2.5 million in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the completion of a wastewater treatment project during fiscal year 2025. Gross profit for fiscal year 2025 grew by 5.42% to $3.4 million , even though the gross profit margin declined to 26.1% from 27.8% in the prior year. Mr. Dingxin Sun , Chairman of the Company, commented: “Fiscal year 2025 marked a period of significant top-line expansion for the Company, demonstrating our resilience and adaptability in a fluctuating economic environment. Total revenue grew by 12.2%, driven largely by the successful execution of major wastewater treatment projects, which surged by nearly 69% year-over-year. While our core River Water Quality Management and Product Sales segments experienced slight contractions due to shifting customer procurement cycles, the robust demand for our wastewater services successfully offset these declines. This performance validates our diversified service strategy, even as the revenue mix shifted toward these service-heavy projects.” “Despite the strong revenue growth, the Company faced pressure on its profitability due to this shift in revenue mix combined with substantial strategic and operational investments. Gross profit margin moderated to 26.2%, primarily because the high-growth wastewater segment carries lower gross profit margins compared to our product sales, which conversely saw margin improvement to 39.1%. More significantly, the swing to a net loss of $0.32 million was driven by a sharp increase in operating expenses. This rise was largely attributable to prudent financial measures, including a $0.9 million increase in provisions for credit losses, alongside higher spending on consulting services and R&D intended to bolster our long-term capabilities.” “Looking ahead, management is focused on further optimizing the Company’s cost structure and improving operating efficiency while sustaining our revenue momentum. We intend to leverage the increased R&D investments made during the past fiscal year to enhance operational efficiencies and improve margins within our lower-margin service segments. By continuing to expand its project pipeline while maintaining disciplined control over administrative costs and credit risk management, management believes that the Company is well-positioned to strengthen profitability and enhance long-term shareholder value.” Selected Financial Results Total revenue Total revenue increased by 12.2%, or $1.4 million , to $12.9 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 , compared with $11.5 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024 , demonstrating the Company’s resilience, adaptability and maintaining profitability in a fluctuating economic environment. Specifically: Revenue from Wastewater Treatment Service for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 rose to $4.2 million from $2.5 million for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024 , reflecting a 68.7% increase as the Company successfully completed a wastewater treatment project in the current fiscal year. Cost of revenue for wastewater treatment service was $3.3 million in fiscal year 2025, an 81.1% increase from 2024. As a result, the gross profit margin was 19.7% and 25.2% for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenue from River Water Quality Management for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 slightly declined to $6.6 million , a 3.6% decrease from $6.9 million in fiscal year 2024. Revenue from Product Sales for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 also slightly declined by 4.6% to $2.1 million , down from $2.2 million in fiscal year 2024. Some of the Company’s regular customers’ procurement demand dropped off due to the reduction of their river water quality management projects, so there was a slight drop on the product sales revenues. Gross profit for product sales for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 increased by 4.4% from the prior year, and gross profit margin was 39.1% and 35.8% for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Other Related Revenues increased by 344.4% to $74,218 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 , from $16,700 for the prior year. Gross profit margin was 6.46% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 . Cost of Revenue Total cost of revenue for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2025 , and 2024, was $9.6 million and $8.3 million , respectively. The increase in cost of revenues is a direct result of the Company’s increase of revenues. Gross Profit and Margin Gross profit for the year ended October 31, 2025 , was $3.4 million , remaining relatively stable compared with fiscal year 2024. Gross margin declined to 26.2% in fiscal year 2025 from 27.8% in fiscal year 2024, primarily due to a greater proportion of revenue coming from lower-margin wastewater treatment and river water quality management projects. Operating Expenses Total operating expenses increased $2.8 million , or 375.4% to $3.5 million for the year ended October 31, 2025 . Higher revenues drove a $0.4 million increase in selling expenses, while general and administrative costs grew by $2.1 million , mainly from a $0.9 million rise in the provision for credit losses, $0.3 million higher salary and welfare costs, and $0.9 million more in consultant and service fees. Research and development spending increased by $0.3 million , primarily for engagements with external research institutions. Net income (loss) As a result of the factors described above, net loss for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2025 was $322,202 , compared to net income of $2.1 million for the fiscal year 2024.
