First Six Months Fiscal 2026 Financial Results:
Revenue
Total revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2025 were approximately RMB85.0 million ($12.2 million), an increase of approximately RMB43.0 million ($6.2 million) or 102.2% from RMB42.0 million ($6.0 million) for the same period in 2024.
Revenue from automation product and software increased by RMB41.4 million ($5.9 million) or 197.6%. For the six months ended December 31, 2025, the increase in revenue from automation products and software was primarily driven by the Company's RMB44.2 million overseas oilfield projects during the period. This was a consequence of the second phase of oilfield capacity construction and the launch of a major automation service and maintenance project that we secured outside China in 2012. The growth was partially offset by a decline of RMB2.7 million in the domestic oilfield business, due to reduced maintenance efforts in the domestic market during the six months period, as our focus shifted towards overseas projects. Looking ahead, we will be making a particular shift in our personnel, moving them from overseeing markets to strengthening our domestic market maintenance.
Revenue from equipment and accessories increased by RMB1.6 million ($0.2 million) or 10.2 %. For the six months ended December 31, 2025, the increase was primarily driven by a RMB4.1 million growth contributed by offshore oilfield operations, as well as revenues of about RMB1.2 million from new onshore oilfield customers. This increase offset some of the RMB3.7 million revenue decline due to reduced business from some occasional orders we achieved in the compared period.
Revenue from oilfield environmental protection services increased by RMB2.8 million ($0.4 million), or 101.3%. This growth was primarily driven by the increase of settlement prices of some wastewater treatment clients.
Revenue from platform outsourcing services decreased by RMB2.7 million ($0.4 million) or 100%. FGS's operations were materially and adversely affected by strategic shifts in its major clients' business decisions to terminate online cooperation of third-party companies and unfavorable changes in domestic industry policies. Consequently, FGS's revenue and active business activities declined precipitously, resulting in zero revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2025.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenues increased from RMB28.7 million ($4.1 million) for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to RMB56.6 million ($8.1 million) for the same period in 2025.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, cost of revenue from automation product and software was approximately RMB12.4 million and RMB40.7 million ($5.8 million), respectively, representing an increase of approximately RMB28.3 million ($4.0 million) or 228.6%. The increase in cost of revenue from automation product and software was primarily attributable to increased revenue of automation products and software.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, cost of revenue from equipment and accessories was approximately RMB11.2 million and RMB13.2 million ($1.9 million), respectively, representing an increase of approximately RMB2.0 million ($0.3 million) or 18.0%. The increase in costs of revenue was primarily driven by expanded business activity, mirroring the same factor behind the growth in revenue.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, cost of revenue from oilfield environmental protection was approximately RMB4.8 million and RMB2.7 million ($0.4 million), respectively, representing a decrease of approximately RMB2.1 million ($0.3 million) or 43.7%. While actively pursuing new business opportunities in a constrained market, the Company undertook testing projects. Given their high uncertainty, equipment costs for these projects were fully costing upon purchase in the prior period, resulting in lower costs in the current period compared to the prior period.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, the reason for the decrease is consistent with that of the revenue decline.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased to RMB28.5 million ($4.1 million) for the six months ended December 31,2025 from RMB13.4 million ($1.9 million) for the same period in 2024. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 33.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2025 from 31.7% for the same period in 2024.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, gross profit from automation products and software was approximately RMB8.5 million and RMB21.6 million ($3.1 million), respectively. This represents an increase of approximately RMB13.1 million ($1.9 million), or 152.8%, primarily driven by the Company's overseas oilfield projects. However, the overall gross margin declined during the period due to a higher proportion of hardware revenue, which carries a lower gross margin.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, gross profit from equipment and accessories was approximately RMB4.5 million and RMB4.1 million ($0.6 million), respectively, representing a decrease of approximately RMB0.4 million ($0.1 million) or 8.8%. The gross margin for automation equipment and accessories has remained relatively stable in this period.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, gross profit from oilfield environmental protection services was approximately negative RMB2.1 million and RMB2.7 million ($0.4 million), respectively, representing an increase of RMB4.9 million ($0.7 million), or 229.1%. The higher costs in the prior period were primarily due to testing projects conducted in 2024, for which equipment costs were fully expensed upon purchase.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, gross profit from platform outsourcing services was approximately RMB2.4 million and nil, respectively, representing a decrease of approximately RMB2.4 million ($0.3 million), or 100%, primarily due to the suspension of operations.
Operating expenses
Selling expenses decreased by 16.2%, or RMB0.9 million ($0.1 million), from RMB5.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to RMB4.3 million ($0.6 million) in the same period of 2025.
General and administrative expenses increased by 19.3%, or RMB4.6 million ($0.7 million), from RMB24.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to RMB28.7 million ($4.1 million) in the same period of 2025.
The Company also recorded allowance for credit losses of RMB0.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to net recovery of credit losses of RMB0.02 million ($0.003 million) for the same period in 2025.
Research and development expenses decreased by 22.1%, or RMB2.2 million ($0.3 million) from RMB10.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to RMB7.9 million ($1.1 million) for the same period of 2025.
Loss from operations
Loss from operations was RMB12.4 million ($1.8 million) for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to a loss of RMB26.9 million for the same period of 2024. This RMB14.5 million ($2.1 million) decrease in operating losses was mainly driven by higher operating gross profit, as previously discussed.
Change in fair value of warrant liability
The Company classified the warrants issued in connection with common share offering as liabilities at their fair value and adjusted the warrant instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statement of operations. Change in fair value changes of warrant liability was negative RMB10,327 and RMB584.0 ($84.0) for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The primary reason for the decrease in the fair value loss of the warrant liability was the change in the fair value assessment price.
Interest income
Net interest income was RMB6.4 million ($0.9 million) for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to net interest income of RMB6.6 million for the same period of 2024. Interest income remained relatively stable.
Other expenses, net.
Other net expenses amounted to RMB1.2 million ($0.2 million) for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to RMB0.4 million for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of RMB0.8 million ($0.1 million). The increase was primarily due to the closure of Qinghai BHD and the disposal of 51% equity interest in MSJ, which together resulted in a total loss on equity shares investments of RMB1.1 million.
Net loss
As a result of the factors described above, net loss was RMB7.2 million ($1.0 million) for the six months ended December 31, 2025, a decrease of RMB13.5 million ($1.9 million) from net loss of RMB20.7 million for the same period of 2024.
Cash and short-term investment
As of December 31, 2025, we had cash in the amount of approximately RMB75.1 million ($10.7 million).As of June 30, 2025, we had cash in the amount of approximately RMB98.9 million ($14.1 million) and short-term investment in bank fixed income product of approximately RMB3.6 million ($0.5 million).
