First Half of Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results
Revenues
Revenues were $17.0 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 24.44% from $13.6 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase in revenues was mainly driven by the increase in demand for specialized oilfield equipment and increase in average sales price for specialized oilfield vehicles and partially offset by the decrease in demand for sales of raw materials and parts.
Sales of specialized oilfield equipment were $9.5 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 73.54% from $5.5 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase was mainly due to the Company's decision to expand production capacity of higher-pricing specialized oilfield equipment in order to allocate more resources towards research and development for the Company's new specialized oilfield equipment products with higher profit margins, given that all specialized oilfield equipment shares the same production facilities.
Sales of specialized oilfield vehicles were $5.6 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 58.27% from $3.6 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase was mainly due to the Company's decision to optimize its product portfolio.
Service revenue was $1.8 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 1.51% from $1.7 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase was because the Company earned cultivate positive word-of-mouth recommendations within the oilfield industry and a good reputation in the market.
Other revenue was $0.04 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, a decrease of 98.57% from $2.8 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The Company sold chassis parts of $2.8 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues was $11.8 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 20.77% from $9.7 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase in cost was mainly due to the increase in revenues of 24.44%.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Gross profit was $5.2 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 33.63% from $3.9 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. Gross profit margin was 30.65% for the first half of fiscal year 2025, increased from 28.54% for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase in both gross profit and gross profit margin was mainly driven by higher margin achieved in sales of specialized oilfield vehicles, which was partially offset by the decreasing unsustainable sales of the Company's parts and materials.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $2.9 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, compared to $2.0 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024.
- Selling and marketing expenses have been consistently maintained at $0.6 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025 and 2024. The observed revenue expansion reflects the Company's management team's direct business development efforts rather than commission-based sales channels, thereby maintaining stable commission expenditures.
- General and administrative expenses were $0.8 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 91.78% from $0.4 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase was attributed to the increase in provision for credit losses of $0.4 million on accounts receivables.
- Research and development expenses were $1.5 million for the first half of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 52.71% from $1.0 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024. The increase was attributed to the increase of design and development expenses to develop new products and refine existing products. The research and development expenses are mainly driven by the stage and scale of the Company's equipment development.
