Dear Shareholders,
2024 was a year of challenges and opportunities. In an economic environment of high interest rates, slowing economic recovery, and intensified disputes between China and the United States, Sunonwealth maintained its corporate resilience, responded to the rapidly changing industrial environment with caution and flexibility, upheld its core values, and continued to pursue sustainable development and steady growth.
Over the past year, the global market still suffered from weak demand suppressed by high interest rates and inventory adjustments by end customers, which continued to impact the revenue from industrial applications, laptops, home appliances, and distribution channels. However, the rapid development of AI applications has significantly increased the demand for AI servers. On the other hand, the demand in automotive applications has continued to grow steadily due to the widespread adoption and extension of related applications. Therefore, despite the difficult environment, Sunonwealth continued to thrive and achieved outstanding results with the joint efforts of all employees.
Looking forward, geopolitical tensions, trade tariffs, and inflation continue to make the global economic outlook highly uncertain. However, key industries that have attracted high attention such as generative artificial intelligence, robotics, electric vehicles, and new energy, are expected to continue flourishing in the following years. We will continue to invest in the development and innovation in related industries, accelerate, improve, and diversify our global manufacturing footprints, and uphold the concept of sustainable development to enhance the company's long-term corporate value.
