First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results

Net Revenues

Net revenues were $5.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 32.3% from $7.9 million in the same period last year. The decrease in net revenues was primarily driven by a decrease in sales volume by 6,432 units, from 16,880 units in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 to 10,448 units for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and the decreased average sales price of EV, which decreased by $93 per EV, from $1,053 in the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $960 in the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Retail sales revenue was $3.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 45.2% from $6.9 million in the same period last year. Wholesale revenue was $1.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of 42.3% from $1.0 million in the same period last year. Rental services revenue was $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026. The Company did not generate revenue from rental services in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease in retail sales revenue is mainly due to recent lithium-battery accidents involving E-Bikes and E-Scooters. With an increasing number of lithium-battery explosion incidents in New York, customers are less inclined to purchase E-Bikes. Consequently, sales have declined as customers opt for oil-powered vehicles over electric vehicles. The decrease in retail sales also attributed in part to the closures and dispositions of the Company's retail stores during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in average sales price was primarily attributable to changes in product mix and promotional pricing strategies implemented during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in wholesales revenue was driven primarily by the increase of number of our dealers in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $3.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 35.8% from $4.8 million in the same period last year. The decrease in cost of revenues was primarily attributable to more favorable pricing obtained from the Company's suppliers, particularly for batteries, as well as a reduction in sales volume, as discussed previously. These factors collectively contributed to the overall decrease in cost of revenues.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $2.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 27.0% from $3.1 million in the same period last year. Gross margin was 42.4% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, increased from 39.4% in the same period last year. The increase in gross margin was mainly because of the increased revenues from rental business with higher margin than other businesses. Gross margin of rental business was 79.8% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026. The Company did not generate profit from rental services in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were $3.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of 19.7% from $3.1 million in the same period last year.

Payroll expenses decreased to $0.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 from $0.4 million in the same period last year primarily due to decrease in headcount of office assistants.
