Company Anticipates Return to Growth in 2025

SHANGHAI, Jan. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd ("Nisun International" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: NISN), a technology and industry driven integrated supply chain solutions provider, today announced its preliminary revenue and earnings guidance for fiscal year 2024, along with key strategic decisions that position the Company for long-term growth and profitability.

PRELIMINARY 2024 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

• Revenue: The Company expects to report revenues in the range of USD 300 million to USD 350 million.
• Net Income: The Company anticipates net income in the range of USD 11 million to USD 15 million.
• EPS: The Company anticipates EPS in the range of USD 2.6 USD 3.6.
• Annual Report: Nisun International expects to release its annual report before the end of April 2025.

"Our preliminary forecasts underscore the progress we are making in reshaping our business and highlight our commitment to enhancing shareholder value," stated Xin Liu, Chief Executive Officer of Nisun International.

STRATEGIC REVIEW AND BUSINESS REALIGNMENT

Following a comprehensive review of all business segments, Nisun International has decided to reduce selected supply chain trading businesses characterized by low margins and high capital requirements. This move will enable the Company to better allocate resources and capital toward areas offering higher returns and sustainable growth.

FOCUS ON SUPPLY CHAIN FINANCING SOLUTIONS

Going forward, Nisun International will concentrate more on supply chain financing solutions that incorporate a financing component, such as accounts receivable (AR) factoring. These services offer higher margins and lower capital risk by leveraging a platform that arranges financing through third-party financial institutions rather than using Nisun International's own capital.

"Our recalibration toward supply chain financing solutions is a direct response to market dynamics and our goal of delivering stronger, more sustainable results," added Xin Liu. "We remain committed to innovation and operational excellence as we reposition our Company for the future."

EXPANSION OF KFC BUSINESS ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES

Nisun International is also encouraged by the initial success of its KFC operations with its business partner on college campuses and plans to expand this business in the near term. The Company believes this initiative will serve as an additional growth driver, complementing its other core lines of business. For more details on the KFC business and its potential impact on Nisun International's growth plans, please reference the Company's upcoming filings and press releases.

OUTLOOK AND CONFIDENCE FOR 2025

With these strategic decisions and ongoing business successes, Nisun International is confident in its ability to return to growth in 2025. According to Xin Liu, "We are forging a bright path forward—committed to innovation, adaptability, and delivering value for our stakeholders."
