Interim Financial Results
The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are attached to this release and form an integral part hereof. Below is a summary of such unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.
Revenue. Revenue increased by $1,448,789, or 70.09%, to $3,515,890 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $2,067,101 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the completion and delivery of several high-value projects during the first half of 2025.
Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased by $1,078,000, or 86.68%, to $2,321,681 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $1,243,681 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales was 66.03% and 60.17% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. This increase was generally consistent with the overall growth in revenue during the period.
Gross profit. As a result of the foregoing, gross profit increased by $370,789, or 45.03%, to $1,194,209 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $823,420 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Gross margin (percent of revenue) was 33.97% and 39.83% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to increased production wages and subcontracting costs associated with the execution of several large and complex projects.
Administrative expenses. Administrative expenses increased by $839,479, or 133.26%, to $1,469,419 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $629,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. As a percentage of revenue, administrative expense was 41.79% and 30.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher staffing levels, salary increases, an incentive payout related to strong sales performance for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the engagement of integrated media advertising services amounting to approximately $398,000.
Total other income. The Company had total other income, net, of $11,907 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $902 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Total other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of other income of $20,895, offset by interest expense of $8,988, while total other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 consisted of other income of $11,429, offset by interest expense of $10,527. Other income mainly consists of rental income, interest income and gain on disposal of property and equipment.
Income tax (expense) benefit. The Company incurred an income tax expense of $57,241 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to an income tax benefit of $24,323 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The benefit in the 2024 period was due to the overprovision of income taxes in the prior year of $89,888.
Net (loss) income. As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, net loss was $320,544 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to net income of $218,705 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $539,249, or 246.56%.
