Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The following are factors that could have a significant impact on our operations and financial results and could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statements.
Economic, Political, and Market Risks
We face competition in the market for warehousing and logistics activities, and we expect competition from existing competitors and other companies that may enter the market or introduce new solutions in the future, which may decrease our net revenue.
The warehousing and logistics industry in the U.S. is competitive and rapidly evolving, with new companies increasingly joining the competition in recent years. We provide a full spectrum of services, including facilitating overseas transportation of merchandise to the U.S., customs brokerage services, and warehouse management and order fulfillment services, we may, therefore, compete with a broad range of companies, such as freight delivery service providers, customs brokers, warehousing companies, and third-party logistics service providers. Because we currently primarily compete in a niche market targeting PRC customers seeking to establish overseas warehouses in the U.S., we have the advantage of offering one-stop integrated supply chain solutions that include a package of all the services above. Nonetheless, with the growth of overseas warehousing services, competition can be increasingly intensive and is expected to increase significantly in the future. The increased competition may lead to price reductions for customer acquisition, which may result in reduced margins and a loss of market share for us. We compete with other competitors on the following bases:
warehouse and infrastructure capacity;
operational capabilities;
business model;
brand recognition;
quality of services;
effectiveness of sales and marketing efforts; and
hiring and retention of talented staff.
Our competitors may operate with different business models, have different service structures, and may ultimately prove to be more successful or more adaptable to new regulatory, technological, and other developments. They may in the future achieve greater market acceptance and recognition and gain a greater market share. It is also possible that potential competitors may emerge and acquire a significant market share. If existing or potential competitors develop or offer services that provide significant performance, price, creative optimization, or other advantages over those offered by us, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be negatively affected. Our existing and potential competitors may enjoy competitive advantages over us, such as longer operating history, greater brand recognition, larger customer base, and better value-added services. We may customers if we to compete , which could affect our financial performance and business prospects. We cannot guarantee that our strategies will remain competitive or in the future. Increasing competition may result in pricing pressure and of our market share, either of which could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Any adverse change in political relations between the U.S. and other countries or regions where our overseas customers are located (particularly the PRC), such as the ongoing U.S.-China trade conflicts, may negatively affect our business.
We derived approximately 84% and 96% of our revenue from overseas customers in the PRC during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and the continued success of our operations will be heavily dependent on the willingness of our PRC customers to sell in the U.S. via global online e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon and eBay. This, in turn, depends heavily on stable political and economic relations between the PRC and the U.S. In the event of any significant deterioration in the PRC’s relations with the U.S., our customers in the PRC may refrain from selling their merchandise in the U.S. market, and executive action or legislation may be enacted that would adversely affect the profitability, feasibility, and thus the willingness of these customers to continue their global e-commerce business in the U.S. For example, due to the increased tariffs caused by the ongoing trade conflicts between the U.S. and China, the costs of importing and exporting certain goods or materials have increased. Given that we cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the U.S. and China, our supply chain, costs, and profitability may be impacted by the adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the continuation of the trade , or other government actions related to tariffs, trade agreements, or related policies. As a result, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be affected.
U.S. government trade actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, and results of operations.
Over the past several years, the U.S. government has taken a number of trade actions that impact or could impact our operations, including imposing tariffs on certain goods imported into the U.S. As the majority of our customers import products into the U.S. from China, many of their products are subject to the tariffs imposed under Section 301 of U.S. trade law that have been applied to separate lists of Chinese goods imported into the U.S., beginning during the first Trump Administration, which remained largely in effect in the Biden Administration. A number of lawsuits and other legal challenges with respect to the Section 301 tariff actions have been filed and remain pending, which could result in changes to the tariffs. The Biden Administration largely maintained, defended, and enforced these particular trade actions.
Changes in U.S. trade policy have created ongoing uncertainties in international trade relations, and it is unclear what future actions governments will or will not take with respect to tariffs or other international trade agreements and policies. During the 2024 presidential campaign, candidate Donald Trump expressed intentions to impose various tariffs on imports, such as 60% tariffs on goods imported from China, 25% tariffs on goods imported from Mexico, and between 10% and 20% tariffs on goods imported from other countries. The current Trump administration began implementing these proposals through executive action, reigniting trade tensions with key U.S. trading partners. In early 2025, the Trump administration announced a renewed wave of tariff increases targeting Chinese imports, raising certain rates to as high as 145%. In response, China imposed retaliatory tariffs of up to 125% on U.S. goods and introduced export restrictions on critical raw materials, such as rare earth elements. Although a 90-day temporary easing of tariffs was announced in May 2025, which was further extended on August 12, 2025 for an additional 90 days expiring November 10, 2025, reducing U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods to 30% and Chinese tariffs on U.S. goods to 10%, tensions between the two countries remain following new U.S. restrictions on exports of advanced technology and the revocation of Chinese student visas.
It is unclear what actions the Trump administration or Congress will take next with respect to these proposals. Ongoing or new trade wars or other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements or policies could reduce demand for our customers’ products and services, increase their costs, reduce their profitability, adversely impact their supply chain or otherwise have a material adverse effect on their business and results of operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, and results of operations. Given the uncertainty regarding the scope and duration of these trade actions by the U.S. government or other countries, as well as the potential for additional trade actions, the impact on our business and results of operations remains uncertain.
We are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the increasing strained relationship between the U.S. and China. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the conflict in Ukraine or any other geopolitical tensions.
U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the start of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. On February 24, 2022, Russia initiated a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict is highly unpredictable, the conflict in Ukraine could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions.
The recent military conflict in Ukraine has led to sanctions and other penalties being levied by the United States, the European Union, and other countries against Russia. Additional potential sanctions and penalties have also been proposed or threatened. Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets, potentially making it more difficult for us to obtain additional funds. Although our business has not been materially impacted by the ongoing military conflict between Russian and Ukraine to date, it is impossible to predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our customers, will be impacted in the short and long term, or the ways in which the conflict may impact our business. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market are to predict, but could be substantial. Any such may also magnify the impact of other risks described in this annual report.
In addition, the U.S.-China relationship has recently faced daunting challenges, contributing to geopolitical instability worldwide. Because we derived approximately 84% and 96% of our revenue from the PRC market during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, our business relies on a stable economic and political relationship between the U.S. and China. However, the tensions between the two countries have intensified since the COVID-19 pandemic, exemplified by the ongoing trade conflicts between U.S. and China, and there is significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the two countries with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations, and tariffs. Any further deteriorating relationship between the U.S. and China, or a prolonged stalemate between them, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
China’s economic, political, and social conditions, as well as governmental policies, could affect the business environment and economic conditions in China, which may result in an adverse impact on the demand for our services, potentially harming our financial condition and operating results.
While we do not have any subsidiaries, assets, or employees in the PRC, we generate a significant part of our revenue from customers based in China. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated approximately 84% and 96% of our revenue from the PRC market, respectively. We expect such PRC-based revenue to continue to comprise a significant part of our revenue going forward. As a result, any unforeseen events or circumstances that negatively impact our ability to provide our services to our PRC customers would materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. These negative events and circumstances include, but may not be limited to, the following:
an economic downturn in China;
changes in laws and regulations, in particular those with little advance notice;
deterioration of relations or disruption of trade with the U.S., such as anti-U.S. campaigns; and
tariffs and other trade barriers which could make it more expensive for our PRC customers to transport their goods and merchandise to the U.S.
The Chinese government has implemented regulations or policies that have adversely affected our business. For example, The PRC government has imposed controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors — Economic, Political, and Market Risks — If the PRC government imposes further restrictions and limitations on our PRC customers’ ability to transfer or distribute cash from the PRC to the U.S., our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.” There is no guarantee that the PRC government will not implement similar policies or regulations in the future. For example, any changes to trade policies or regulations in China could potentially impact the ability of e-commerce merchants to sell their merchandise in the U.S. market — possible tariffs imposed by the PRC government on goods exported to the U.S. could increase costs for e-commerce merchants selling their merchandise overseas. In light of the renewed escalation of the U.S.-China trade war under the current Trump administration, these risks have intensified. In early 2025, the U.S. imposed new tariffs on Chinese goods — raising certain rates up to 145%— prompting the PRC government to implement retaliatory measures, including tariffs of up to 125% and restrictions on exports of raw materials, which tariffs have been reduced by the U.S. to 30% and China to 10% until November 10, 2025 on a temporary basis. These developments have increased the cost and complexity of cross-border trade, which could Chinese e-commerce merchants from expanding or continuing their U.S.-bound operations. This could potentially lead to a decrease in demand for overseas warehousing and logistics services, as e-commerce merchants may opt to scale back their operations in the U.S. market.
Additionally, potential deterioration in China’s macroeconomic environment could reduce the purchasing power of PRC e-commerce merchants, who may choose to reduce their e-commerce business targeting U.S. consumers or, in some cases, even exit the U.S. market altogether, leading to a decrease in demand for overseas warehousing and logistics services. Furthermore, potential economic deuteriation in the PRC could make it more challenging for us to attract new customers and retain existing ones, potentially leading to a decrease in our service utilization. If the demand for cross-border e-commerce from the PRC decreases, it could adversely impact our revenue and profitability. While we plan to mitigate such risks by diversifying our customer base, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so. As such, the economic, political, and social conditions in the PRC could materially and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
Disruptions to the international supply chain systems could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The cross-border e-commerce related warehousing and logistics market depends largely on the availability and reliability of the global supply chain systems. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the vulnerability of international supply chain systems and the potential risks associated with disruptions to these systems. Supply chain disruptions, such as port congestion and container shortages, may cause stockouts, which can impact the availability of merchandise for e-commerce merchants to sell. In turn, this can reduce demand for our services, as e-commerce merchants may hold back on cross-border operations until stock availability is resolved. Furthermore, disruptions to the international supply chain systems may lead to increased costs associated with logistics, shipping, and warehousing, resulting in reduced margins and profitability of our business. In addition, supply chain issues may also cause delays in shipments, leading to customer dissatisfaction and decreased demand for our services. Our ability to mitigate these risks may be limited, and there can be no assurance that we will be in doing so. As a result, to the international supply chain systems could have a material and impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Labor actions may disrupt the U.S. transportation network we rely on and thus may adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our reliance on the global supply chain systems and the U.S. transportation network exposes us to potential disruptions and congestions caused by labor actions, such as labor disputes or port strikes. Labor disputes among freight carriers and at ports of entry in the U.S., where our PRC customers’ merchandise is imported, are not uncommon. For example, in June 2023, the union representing the employers of over 22,000 dock workers at U.S. West Coast seaports staged concerted and disruptive work actions, resulting in the shutdown of some terminals at ports in Los Angeles, Long Beach, Oakland and Hueneme in California and Tacoma and Seattle in Washington state. More recently, in October 2024, the International Longshoremen’s Association initiated a significant strike on the East and Gulf Coasts, affecting around 45,000 workers and temporarily shutting down 14 major ports, including the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. As such, we expect labor unrest and its effects on the transportation of our PRC customers’ merchandise to be a continuing challenge for us. Any , such as a port worker strike, work , or other transportation in the U.S., may significantly our business. Although, as of the date of this annual report, our business has not experienced material impacts from such caused by union actions, there is no guarantee that they will not occur in the future. In the event that such do occur, they could lead to increased transportation costs, reduced margins, and decreased for our business. Additionally, they may cause shipment , resulting in customer and reduced demand for our services. A transportation caused by labor action may materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Demand for our services may be adversely impacted by the changing consumer spending power and habits in the U.S.
We offer one-stop warehousing and logistics services to cross-border e-commerce merchants outside the U.S. who seek to sell in the U.S. Our business success is closely tied to the demand for cross-border e-commerce in the U.S., which is, in turn, dependent on the demand from U.S. online shoppers for imported goods from countries such as China. As such, any significant economic changes in the U.S., such as recessions or economic downturns, could reduce consumer spending power, reduce cross-border trade, and affect the demand for our services. Additionally, any changes in consumer spending habits, such as a shift toward purchasing from domestic retailers, could also lead to reduced demand for our services and negatively impact our business. If we are unable to take effective measures in a timely manner to mitigate the negative impact of a decline in consumer spending power or shifts in spending habits in the U.S., our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We may be adversely affected by the effects of inflation and a potential recession.
Recent inflationary pressures have caused, and may continue to cause, higher interest rates and capital costs, elevated shipping costs, supply shortages, increased labor costs, weaker exchange rates, and other related effects. Since 2021, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, higher-than-expected inflation, including the escalation of transportation, commodity, and supply chain costs and disruptions that adversely affected our results of operations. Specifically, since 2021, we have partially offset the impact of inflation largely through price increases, in addition to continued supply chain optimization initiatives, and may continue to do so in the future. However, should inflation continue to impose significant pressures on our costs, we may not be able to offset the increased costs or otherwise handle the exposure, which could negatively impact our business, results of operations, or financial condition. Further, even if we are able to increase prices initially to counter inflationary pressures, we may not be able to sustain such price increases. If our competitors do not raise their prices or if consumers or customers decide not to pay the higher prices for our services, sustained price increases may eventually lead to a decrease in sales volume. Thus, inflationary pressures could our reputation, our brands, or our or market share. In addition, economic and market conditions, including a potential , may impact market sentiment, decreasing the demand for warehousing and logistics services, particularly those associated with cross-border e-commerce, which would affect our operating income and results of operations. If we are to take measures in a timely manner to mitigate the impact of inflation as well as a potential , our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be affected.
If the PRC government imposes further restrictions and limitations on our PRC customers’ ability to transfer or distribute cash from the PRC to the U.S., our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
The PRC government has imposed controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. For instance, the Circular on Promoting the Reform of Foreign Exchange Management and Improving Authenticity and Compliance Review, issued on January 26, 2017, provides that banks shall, when dealing with dividend remittance transactions from a domestic enterprise to its offshore shareholders of more than $50,000, review the relevant board resolutions, original tax filing form, and audited financial statements of such domestic enterprise based on the principle of genuine transaction. There is no guarantee that the PRC government will not further intervene or impose other restrictions on our PRC customers’ ability to transfer or distribute cash outside the PRC. In the event that the foreign exchange control system prevents our PRC customers from remitting their payments to the U.S., we may not be able to receive a substantial portion of our revenue. As a result, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Operational Risks
Failure to renew our current leases or locate desirable alternatives for our facilities could materially and adversely affect our business.
We lease properties for all of our offices, warehouses, and fulfilment centers. We may not be able to successfully extend or renew such leases upon expiration of the current term on commercially reasonable terms or at all, and may therefore be forced to relocate the affected operations. This could disrupt our operations and result in significant relocation expenses, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, we compete with other businesses for premises at certain locations or of desirable sizes. As a result, even though we could extend or renew our leases, rental payments may significantly increase as a result of the high demand for the leased properties. In addition, we may not be able to locate desirable alternative sites for our facilities as our business continues to grow and failure in relocating our affected operations could adversely affect our business and operations.
If our customers are able to reduce their logistics and supply chain costs or increase utilization of their internal solutions, our business and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.
One of the main reasons that our customers use contract warehouse and logistics management companies is the high cost, high degree of difficulties, and operational deficiencies associated with developing in-house logistics and supply chain expertise. If, however, our customers are able to develop their own logistics and supply chain solutions, increase utilization of their in-house supply chain, reduce their logistics spending, or otherwise choose to terminate our services, our business and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.
The suspension of PRC sellers on international e-commerce platforms, such as the crackdown on PRC sellers by Amazon in early 2021, has discouraged and may continue to discourage a growing number of PRC e-commerce sellers from selling their merchandise to the United States, thus adversely affecting our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
As we derived approximately 84% and 96%of our revenue from the PRC market during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, we believe that our continued growth depends largely on our ability to maintain our Chinese client base. In early 2021, Amazon, the world’s largest e-commerce platform, claimed that it had suspended the accounts of over 50,000 Chinese sellers for improper use of review functions. Specifically, instead of earning great reviews through high-quality products, those PRC sellers manipulated reviews by paying for positive product reviews or by giving away gift cards, which violates Amazon’s terms of service. It is estimated that the 50,000 affected accounts caused approximately RMB100 billion in losses for the cross-border e-commerce industry in the PRC, which has discouraged a growing number of PRC e-commerce sellers from selling their merchandise to the U.S. via Amazon.
There is no guarantee that (i) our current or future international customers are fully compliant with the terms of service of all the international e-commerce platforms they use, including Amazon, or that (ii) those e-commerce platforms will not from time to time initiate such a widespread suspension of PRC sellers in the future. Such a crackdown on PRC sellers may significantly reduce the number of Chinese e-commerce sellers who intend to sell in the U.S., who are our primary customers. The loss of our PRC customer base due to the widespread suspension of PRC sellers in the cross-border e-commerce industry could be detrimental to our ongoing operations. If we are unable to attract new customers in a timely or cost-effective manner, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our largest customers generate a significant portion of our revenue and our business may rely on one or more suppliers that account for more than 10% of our total purchases, and interruption in operations of such significant customers or supplier may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we derived most of our revenue from a few customers. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, our two largest customers, Goldensee Ltd. and Kimberly Tenneco Inc, accounted for approximately 22.0% and 10.8% of our total revenue, respectively. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, our top four customers, Aukey International Ltd., Western Post (HK) Ltd., Goldensee Ltd., and Union Grand Imp. & Exp. Co., Ltd., accounted for approximately 11.7%, 11.7%, 10.9%, and 10.0% of our total revenue, respectively. No other customers represented 10% or more of our total revenue for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. For an example of a typical transaction, see “Item 1. Business — Customers.” We may lose a significant customer due to a variety of factors, including our ability to provide quality warehouse and logistics management services. Even though we have a strong record of performance, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to maintain the business cooperation with these significant customers at the same level, or at all. If any significant customer terminates its relationship with us, there is no assurance you that we will be able to secure an alternative arrangement with comparable customer in a timely manner, or at all. Losing one or more of these significant customers could adversely affect our revenue and .
In addition, we depend upon a significant supplier that accounted for more than 10% of our total purchases for approximately the past two years — specifically, FedEx accounted for 9% and 50% of our total purchases during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, UPS accounted for approximately 15.2% and MEGA CORP LOGISTIC LLC, a third-party vendor providing shipping services via FedEx, accounted for approximately 10%, respectively. We cannot ensure that we will have no concentration of suppliers in the future. Such third-party suppliers are run by independent entities that are subject to their own unique operational and financial risks, which are beyond our control. If such significant suppliers breach or terminate their contracts with us, or experience significant disruptions to their operations, we will be required to find and enter into arrangements with one or more replacement suppliers. Finding alternative suppliers could involve significant delays and other costs and these suppliers may not be available to us on reasonable terms or at all. As a result, this could harm our business and financial results and result in lost or deferred revenue.
Customer demand is difficult to forecast accurately, and as a result we may be unable to make planning and spending decisions to match such demand.
We make planning and spending decisions, including capacity expansion, procurement commitments, personnel needs, and other resource requirements based on our estimates of customer demand. A significant portion of our revenue is derived from customers whose demand for the warehousing and shipping services is tied closely to the end consumers in the U.S. Therefore, our customer demand may be impacted by factors out of our control, such as unexpected shifts in the preferences of U.S. end consumers for our customers’ merchandise, foreign exchange rate fluctuations that could adversely impact our customers’ costs and pricing strategies, and manufacturing production delays. Moreover, we may potentially experience capacity and resource shortages in fulfilling e-commerce orders on behalf of our customers during the peak season of e-commerce consumption or following special promotional campaigns on any e-commerce platforms. Failure to meet customer demand in a timely fashion or at all may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our dependence on third parties to provide overseas transportation and domestic distribution services may impact the delivery and quality of our transportation and logistics services, and any disruption to these services could result in a disruption to our business, negative publicity, and a slowdown in the growth of our customer base, materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Because we do not have our own delivery team and networks, our business depends on the services provided by, and relationships with, various independent third parties, to provide truck and ocean services and to report certain events to us, including, but not limited to, shipment status information and freight claims. For example, we rely on ocean carriers for the transportation of our customer’s goods and merchandise to the U.S, before they complete customs clearance and are delivered to U.S. warehouses. We also rely on common carriers such as FedEx and UPS to distribute merchandise to the U.S. end consumer who place orders online. Several third-party logistics service providers contributed a significant part of the total cost of revenue of our Company. In particular, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, FedEx accounted for approximately 9% and 50% of our total cost of revenue, respectively. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, UPS accounted for approximately 15.2% and MEGA CORP LOGISTIC LLC, a third-party vendor providing shipping services via FedEx, accounted for approximately 10%, respectively. These third-party logistics service providers may not fulfill their obligations to us, which may prevent us from meeting our commitments to our customers. This reliance also could cause delays in reporting certain events, including recognizing claims. In addition, if we are unable to secure sufficient equipment or other transportation services from third parties to meet our commitments to our customers, our operating results could be materially and affected, and our customers could switch to our competitors temporarily or permanently. Many of these risks are beyond our control, including:
equipment and driver shortages in the transportation industry;
changes in regulations impacting transportation;
disruption in the supply or cost of fuel;
unanticipated changes in ocean or truck freight markets; and
increases in shipping costs or other issues that adversely affect the global supply chains, such as global availability of shipping containers, and related labor and fuel costs.
We may face risks related to natural disasters, health epidemics, and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt our operations
Natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, or other adverse weather and climate conditions, whether occurring in the United States or abroad, could disrupt our operations and could damage or destroy infrastructure necessary to transport products as part of the supply chain. These events could make it difficult or impossible for us to provide logistics services; disrupt or prevent our ability to perform functions at the corporate level; and/or otherwise impede our ability to continue business operations in a continuous manner consistent with the level and extent of business activities prior to the occurrence of the unexpected event, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
In addition, our business may be negatively impacted by the fear of, exposure to, or actual effects of, a disease outbreak, epidemic, pandemic, or similar widespread public health concern, including travel restrictions or recommendations or mandates from governmental authorities as a result of COVID-19, the threat of the virus, or the emergence of any variants. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic had a material impact on our financial position and operating results. Specifically, the COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges for logistics companies globally. Multiple national lockdowns, in particular the lockdowns, travel restrictions, mandatory cessations of business operations, or mandatory quarantines imposed in the PRC, slowed or even temporarily halted the movement of raw materials and finished goods, thus disrupting the manufacturing and distribution of goods. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, COVID-19 did not have a material impact on our financial position and operating results. However, there is no assurance that a disease outbreak, such as COVID-19 or any other natural disasters, will not occur in the future. The extent to which such natural diseases may impact us will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the duration, , and recurrence of any such disease outbreak, the effectiveness of mitigation strategies, third-party actions taken to contain its spread and mitigate its public health effects, and the travel restrictions, recommendations, or mandates from governmental authorities as a result of such natural or disease outbreaks. Any of these factors may materially and affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our results of operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations.
We experience seasonality in our business, mainly correlating to the seasonality patterns associated with the e-commerce and logistics and supply chain industries in the U.S. We typically experience a seasonal surge in volume of service orders during the second and fourth quarters of each year due to holiday seasons and summer revenue, respectively. We may experience capacity and resource shortages in our warehousing and order fulfillment services during the period such season surge in our business. On the other hand, activity levels across our business lines are typically lower in the first and third quarters of each year, primarily due to relatively weaker consumer spending and decreased availability of delivery personnel and warehouse staff during these periods. As a result, our financial condition and results of operations for future periods may continue to fluctuate, and the trading price of our common stock may fluctuate from time to time, due to seasonality.
Our business and results of operations may be harmed by the misconduct of authorized employees that have access to important assets of our Company such as inventory, bank accounts, and confidential information.
During the course of our business operations, some of our employees have access to certain valuable assets of our Company, such as warehouse inventory, bank accounts, and confidential information. In the event of misconduct by such authorized employees, our Company could suffer significant losses. Employee misconduct may include misappropriating warehouse inventory or bank accounts, falsifying inventory records or bank accounts, improper use or disclosure of confidential information to the public or our competitors, and failure to comply with our code of conduct or other policies or with federal or state laws or regulations regarding the use and safeguarding of classified or other protected information, import-export control, and any other applicable laws or regulations. Although we have implemented policies, procedures, and controls to prevent and detect these activities, these precautions may not prevent all intentional or negligent , and as a result, we could face unknown risks or . Furthermore, such , unprofessional, or even behavior by employees could our reputation, result in , , restitution, or other , and lead to the of current and future customers, any of which would affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our insurance does not fully cover all of our operational risks, and changes in the cost of insurance or the availability of insurance could materially increase our insurance costs or result in a decrease in our insurance coverage.
While we have auto liability insurance and commercial insurance for self-operated vehicles, cargo insurance, warehouse insurance, general liability insurance, and workers compensation and employer liability insurance, we are self-insured for a portion of our potential liabilities. In certain instances, our insurance may not fully cover an insured loss, depending on the magnitude and nature of the claim. Additionally, changes in the cost of insurance or the availability of insurance in the future could substantially increase our costs to maintain our current level of coverage or could cause us to reduce our insurance coverage and increase the portion of our risks that we self-insure.
Cybersecurity incidents could disrupt our business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information, adversely impact our reputation, and harm our business.
Cybersecurity threats and incidents directed at us could range from uncoordinated individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to information technology systems to sophisticated and targeted measures aimed at disrupting business or gathering personal data of customers. We have relied on a technology platform that enables us to deliver one-stop warehouse and logistics management services to our customers with simplicity, convenience, speed, and reliability, primarily including our Armlogi OMS. Our technology platform supports the smooth performance of certain key functions of our business, such as storage management, order management, payment calculation, and customers services. The secure processing, maintenance, and transmission of information in these systems are critical to our operations. Nonetheless, our technology operations are vulnerable to security breaches and attacks against our system and network. Although we employ measures designed to prevent, detect, address, and mitigate these (including access controls, data encryption, assessments, and maintenance of backup and protective systems), cybersecurity , depending on their nature and scope, could potentially result in the , , , or of data and confidential or proprietary information (our own or that of third parties, including potentially sensitive personal information of our customers) and the of business operations. Any such compromises to our security could cause to our reputation, which could cause customers to trust and confidence in us or could cause agents to stop working for us. In addition, we may incur significant costs for remediation that may include liability for assets or information, repair of system , and compensation to customers and business partners. We may also be subject to legal , government , and additional state and federal statutory requirements.
The potential consequences of a material cybersecurity incident include regulatory violations of applicable U.S. and international privacy and other laws, reputational damage, loss of market value, litigation with third parties (which could result in our exposure to material civil or criminal liability), diminution in the value of the services we provide to our customers, and increased cybersecurity protection and remediation costs (that may include liability for stolen assets or information), which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our competitiveness and results of operations.
Our business, financial condition, and reputation may be substantially harmed by security breaches, interruptions, delays, and failures in our systems and operations.
With our technology platform, we are able manage the entire flow of inventory, labor force, and information in and out of our warehouse network, and optimize our warehouse storage and order management services. The performance and reliability of our systems and operations are critical to our business. Our systems and operations are vulnerable to security breaches, interruption, or malfunction due to certain events beyond our control, including natural disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, power outages, telecommunication failures, break-ins, sabotage, computer viruses, and intentional acts of vandalism. Security breaches, interruptions, , or in our systems or operations can lead to lower quality service, increased costs, and other consumer , and our reputation, all of which could have a significant impact on our financial condition and operating results.
Our business and financial condition may be substantially harmed by inventory losses caused by theft, vandalism, or accidents during transportation and/or warehousing.
As we maintain customers’ goods and merchandise in our warehouses, we bear the risk of damage and loss prior to coordinating with third-party logistics service providers to distribute the goods or merchandise ordered online to their end consumers. In addition, we offer port trucking services to assist customers with the transportation of shipping containers from ports to storage or warehouses. Although we also maintain cargo insurance and warehouse insurance for the warehouses operated and managed by us, and take steps to enhance control by engaging dependable truck drivers for transportation and renting more secure warehouses space, we remain subject to inventory losses caused by theft, vandalism, or accidents during transportation and/or warehousing. In addition, force majeure events such as flooding, fires, or hail may affect a large number of our automobiles. Such events may cause us to incur large damages, deprive us of a significant portion of our inventory, and reduce customer if it leads to our to deliver sold automobiles. If any of the foregoing occurs, our business reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be affected.
If we fail to manage our growth or execute our strategies and future plans effectively, we may not be able to take advantage of market opportunities or meet the demand of our customers.
Our business has grown substantially since our inception, and we expect it to continue to grow in terms of scale and diversity of operations. For example, we launched our international ocean freight services in January 2023 and are actively expanding and refining these offerings. With this new addition, we can now offer our manufacturer customers a comprehensive one-stop logistics solution, covering the entire journey from their overseas factory door to the doorstep of the end consumer here in the United States. In addition, we plan to continue to develop comprehensive and sophisticated solutions and services that span the entire supply chain, from ocean freight to distribution and delivery. This will enable us to offer a full range of value-added services to our customers, including sales forecasts and inventory planning. Such expansions increase the complexity of our operations and may cause strain on our managerial, operational, and financial resources. We must continue to hire, train, and effectively manage new employees. In the event that our new hires fail to perform as expected, or if we fail to hire, train, manage, and integrate new employees, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected. The expansion of our services will also require us to maintain consistency in the quality of our services so that our market reputation is not by any in quality, whether actual or perceived.
Our future results of operations also depend largely on our ability to execute our future plans successfully. In particular, our continued growth may subject us to the following additional challenges and constraints:
we face challenges in ensuring the productivity of a large employee base and recruiting, training, and retaining skilled personnel, including areas of procurement, sales and marketing, and information technology for our growing operations;
we face challenges in responding to evolving industry standards and government regulation that impact our business and the warehousing and logistics industry in general;
the technological or operational challenges may arise from the new services;
the execution of our future plans will be subject to the availability of funds to support the relevant capital investment and expenditures; and
the successful execution of our strategies is subject to factors beyond our control, such as general market conditions, and economic and political developments in the U.S. and globally.
All of these endeavors involve risks and will require significant management, financial, and human resources. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively manage our growth or to implement our strategies successfully. There is no assurance that the investment to be made by our Company as contemplated under our future plans will be successful and generate the expected return. If we are not able to manage our growth or execute our strategies effectively, or at all, our business, results of operations, and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.
To sustain our operations and future business growth, we need to make significant investments in both capital and working capital, and if we are unable to secure sufficient financing when needed, our ability to execute our business plan as outlined in this prospectus will be impaired, which may negatively impact our business and prospects.
Sustaining our ongoing operations and propelling future growth requires a significant investment in capital assets, coupled with sufficient working capital. In particular, as a growing company, we may require additional capital to finance our operations, make strategic investments, or respond to market conditions. For example, we are scheduled to commence the expansion of our warehouse network through leasing additional warehouse space in California and Illinois by December 2024, with an estimated cost of approximately $4 million to $5 million, and we plan to refine and optimize our international ocean freight services with an estimated cost of approximately $2 million. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing on favorable terms or at all. Factors beyond our control, such as unfavorable market conditions, general economic downturns, or investor sentiment, may make it challenging for us to secure additional funding. In the event we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to significantly limit, or even terminate, our primary operations, or delay, reduce, or eliminate certain of our planned operations (including further building our warehousing network and developing comprehensive and sophisticated solutions and services that span the entire supply chain, from ocean freight to distribution and delivery), resulting in a complete of investment for our stockholders. Our to obtain financing on acceptable terms when needed may have a material effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.
If we fail to attract, recruit, or retain our key personnel, including our executive officers, senior management, and key employees, our ongoing operations and growth could be affected.
Our success depends, to a large extent, on the efforts of our key personnel, including our executive officers, senior management, and other key employees who have valuable experience, knowledge, and connections in global supply chains as well as the warehousing and logistics industry. There is no assurance that these key personnel will not voluntarily terminate their employment with us. We do not carry, and do not intend to procure, key person insurance on any of our senior management team. The loss of any of our key personnel could be detrimental to our ongoing operations. Our success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel to manage our existing operations as well as our future growth. We may not be able to successfully attract, recruit, or retain key personnel, and this could adversely impact our financial condition, operating results, and business prospects.
Future acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business. Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our stockholders, including purchasers of our common stock in our initial public offering.
We may acquire businesses, technologies, services, or products that are complementary to our warehousing and logistics business. Future acquisitions may expose us to potential risks, including risks associated with the integration of new operations, services, and personnel, unforeseen or hidden liabilities, the diversion of resources from our existing business and technology, our potential inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset new costs, the expenses of acquisitions, or the potential loss of or harm to relationships with both employees and customers resulting from our integration of new businesses.
Any of the potential risks listed above could have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business, revenue, and net income. We may need to raise additional debt funding or sell additional equity securities to make such acquisitions. The raising of additional debt funding by our Company, if required, would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in additional operating and financing covenants, or liens on our assets, that would restrict our operations. The sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders.
Our previous growth rates and performance may not be sustainable or indicative of our future growth and financial outcomes, and there is no assurance that we will be able to achieve the same level of financial performance in the future.
Our total revenue increased by approximately $23.4 million, or 14.0%, to approximately $190.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 from $167.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Our total revenue increased by approximately $31.9 million, or 23.6%, to approximately $167.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 from $135.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. We reported net loss of approximately $15.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease by $22.8 million, or 306.3%, from net income of $7.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. We reported net income of approximately $7.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, representing a decrease by $6.5 million, from $13.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. While we have achieved strong financial results in the past, these results may not be sustainable or indicative of future results, and we cannot assure you that we will achieve or maintain profitability on a consistent basis. Our revenue growth may slow down or our revenue may decline for a number of reasons, including reduced demand for our warehousing and logistics services, increased competition, industry trend, or our to capitalize on growth . Meanwhile, we expect our overall selling, general, and administrative expenses, including marketing expenses, salaries, and professional and business consulting expenses, to continue to increase in the foreseeable future, as we plan to hire additional personnel and incur additional expenses in connection with the expansion of our business operations. In addition, we also expect to incur significant additional legal, accounting, and other expenses as a newly public company. These efforts and additional expenses may be more than we currently expect, and there is no assurance that we will be to maintain sufficient operating revenue to offset our operating expenses. Any to increase revenue or to manage our costs as we continue to grow and invest in our business would prevent us from or maintaining or maintaining operating cash flow at all, or on a consistent basis, which would cause our business, financial condition, and results of operations to .
Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance Risks
We are subject to numerous laws and regulations applicable to the warehousing and logistics industry in the U.S., which, if we are found to have violated, may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
A number of U.S. federal and state laws and regulations applicable to the warehousing and logistics industry affect our business and conduct. For example, we are subject to regulation by the FMC as an OTI. As a licensed OTI, we are required to comply with several regulations, including the filing of our tariffs. We provide customs brokerage services as a customs broker under a license issued by the CBP and other authoritative governmental agencies. Further, DHS regulations applicable to our customers who import goods into the U.S. and our contracted ocean carriers can impact our ability to provide and/or receive services with and from these parties. Enforcement measures related to violations of these regulations can slow and/or prevent the delivery of shipments, which may negatively impact our operations. Moreover, the OSHA implements and enforces safety and health regulations in the workplace, which provide standards applicable to all industries generally and specific to the warehousing industry, such as standards for, among other things, proper storage of materials, use of material handling equipment, and employee training. Furthermore, as we are involved in the transportation of goods, we must comply with the DOT regulations regarding driver qualifications, vehicle maintenance, and hours of service. Additionally, as with other warehousing and logistics companies, we are required to follow federal and state employment laws, which cover important aspects, such as minimum wage, overtime pay, and anti-discrimination policies, among other things. We are also required to comply with local zoning ordinances and building codes, which may specify the permissible locations for our facilities and the safety standards that must be adhered to. See “Item 1. Business — Governmental Regulations — Operations.” Any to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil, or , the imposition of investigatory remedial obligations or the issuance of limiting or prohibiting our operations. We confirm that, as of the date of this annual report, each of our subsidiaries has obtained a valid business license or permit required for its operations. To the of our knowledge, we are not obliged to obtain any other approvals, licenses, or permits from any federal, state, or local authorities to conduct our business, nor have we received any notice requesting such approvals, licenses, or permits from these authorities. However, it is uncertain whether we will be required to obtain additional approvals, licenses, or permits in connection with our business operations pursuant to evolving federal or state laws and regulations, and whether we will be to obtain such approvals, licenses, or permits on a timely basis. to do so may results in a material change in our operations, and the value of our common stock could deprecate significantly or become .
Non-compliance with laws and regulations on the part of any third parties with which we conduct business could expose us to legal expenses, compensation to third parties, penalties, and disruptions of our business, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial performance.
Third parties with which we conduct business, including third-party logistics service providers and brokers, may be subject to regulatory penalties or punishments because of their regulatory compliance failures or infringement upon other parties’ legal rights, which may, directly or indirectly, disrupt our business. We cannot be certain whether such third parties have violated any regulatory requirements or infringed or will infringe any other parties’ legal rights, which could expose us to legal expenses or compensation to third parties, or both.
We, therefore, cannot rule out the possibility of incurring liabilities or suffering losses due to any non-compliance by third parties. There is no assurance that we will be able to identify irregularities or non-compliance in the business practices of third parties with which we conduct business, or that such irregularities or non-compliance will be corrected in a prompt and proper manner. Any legal liabilities and regulatory actions affecting third parties involved in our business may affect our business activities and reputation, and may in turn affect our business, results of operations, and financial performance.
Moreover, regulatory penalties or punishments against our business stakeholders such as third-party logistics service providers and brokers, whether or not resulting in any legal or regulatory implications upon us, may nonetheless cause business interruptions or even suspension of these business stakeholders, which could in turn disrupt our usual course of business and result in material negative impact on our business operations, results of operation and financial condition.
Failure to protect intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business.
We regard our trademark, domain names, trade secrets, proprietary technologies, and other intellectual property as critical to our success. See “Item 1. Business — Technology and Intellectual Property.” We have taken measures to protect our intellectual property, but these measures might not be sufficient or effective. We may bring lawsuits to protect against the potential infringement of our intellectual property rights. Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary technology and other intellectual property is difficult and expensive, and litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce their intellectual property rights. Future litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and could disrupt our business, as well as materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further, despite the potentially substantial costs, we cannot you that we will prevail in such . In addition, our trade secrets may be leaked or otherwise become available to, or be independently discovered by, our competitors. Any in protecting or enforcing our intellectual property rights could have a material effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Third parties may claim that we infringe their proprietary intellectual property rights, which could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and prevent us from promoting our services.
We cannot be certain that our operations or any aspects of our business do not or will not infringe upon or otherwise violate trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. We may from time to time in the future be subject to legal proceedings and claims relating to the intellectual property rights of others. For instance, we may face claims of trademark or copyright infringement for the use of images, pictures, or materials used on our website or in promotional materials such as brochures or videos. Additionally, we may be subject to software copyright infringement claims for the technology platform we rely on for our daily operations. See “Item 1. Business — Technology and Intellectual Property.” There could also be existing intellectual property of which we are not aware that our services may inadvertently infringe. If any third-party infringement claims are brought us, we may be to management’s time and other resources from our business and operations to these , regardless of their merits. Additionally, the application and interpretation of intellectual property right laws and the procedures and standards for granting trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights are evolving and may be uncertain, and we cannot you that courts or regulatory authorities would agree with our analysis. Such , even if they do not result in liability, may our reputation. If we were found to have the intellectual property rights of others, we may be subject to liability for our activities or may be prohibited from using such intellectual property, and we may incur licensing fees or be to develop alternatives of our own. As a result, our business and financial performance may be materially and affected.
We may from time to time be subject to claims, controversies, lawsuits, and legal proceedings, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations, and financial condition.
We may from time to time become subject to or involved in various claims, controversies, lawsuits, and legal proceedings. However, claims and threats of lawsuits are subject to inherent uncertainties, and we are uncertain whether any of these claims would develop into a lawsuit. Lawsuits, or any type of legal proceeding, may cause our Company to incur defense costs, utilize a significant portion of our resources, and divert management’s attention from our day-to-day operations, any of which could harm our business. Any settlements or judgments against our Company could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In addition, negative publicity regarding claims or judgments made against our Company may damage our reputation and may result in a material impact on us.
We may be the subject of allegations, harassment, or other detrimental conduct by third parties, which could harm our reputation and cause us to lose market share and customers.
We may be subject to allegations by third parties or purported former employees, negative Internet postings, and other adverse public exposure on our business, operations, and staff compensation. We may also become the target of harassment or other detrimental conduct by third parties or disgruntled former or current employees. Such conduct may include complaints, anonymous or otherwise, to regulatory agencies, media, or other organizations. We may be subject to government or regulatory investigation or other proceedings as a result of such third-party conduct and may be required to spend significant time and incur substantial costs to address such third-party conduct, and there is no assurance that we will be able to conclusively refute each of the allegations within a reasonable period of time, or at all. Additionally, allegations, directly or indirectly our Company, may be posted on the Internet, including social media platforms by anyone on an anonymous basis. Any publicity on our Company or our management can be quickly and widely disseminated. Social media platforms and devices immediately publish the content of their users’ posts, often without filters or checks on the accuracy of the content posted. The information posted may be and to our Company, and it may our reputation, business, or prospects. The may be immediate without affording us an for or . Our reputation may be affected as a result of the public dissemination of and potentially information about our business and operations, which in turn may cause us to market share and customers.
Trading Risks
The market price of our common stock may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the initial public offering price.
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our revenue and other operating results;
the financial projections we may provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure to meet these projections;
actions of securities analysts who initiate or maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our Company, or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant products or features, technical innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments;
price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole;
lawsuits threatened or filed against us; and
other events or factors, including those resulting from war or incidents of terrorism, or responses to these events.
In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. Stock prices of many companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. In the past, stockholders have filed securities class litigation following periods of market volatility. If we were to become involved in securities litigation, it could subject us to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business, and adversely affect our business.
The price of our common stock could be subject to rapid and substantial volatility.
There have been instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and strong stock price volatility with recent initial public offerings, especially among those with relatively smaller public floats. As a relatively small-capitalization company with a relatively small public float, we may experience greater stock price volatility, extreme price run-ups, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than large-capitalization companies. In particular, our common stock may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, low volumes of trades, and large spreads in bid and ask prices. Such volatility, including any stock run-ups, may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our common stock.
In addition, if the trading volumes of our common stock are low, persons buying or selling in relatively small quantities may easily influence the price of our common stock. This low volume of trades could also cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate greatly, with large percentage changes in price occurring in any trading day session. Holders of our common stock may also not be able to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to low volume trading. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our common stock. A decline in the market price of our common stock could also adversely affect our ability to issue additional shares of common stock or other of our securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future. No assurance can be given that an active market in our common stock will develop or be sustained. If an active market does not develop, holders of our common stock may be to readily sell the shares they hold or may not be to sell their shares at all.
Our existing stockholders may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings or other equity issuances.
We may in the future issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares of our common stock or other securities in any other offering or other transactions at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by our existing investors.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls or fail to remediate the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting that have been identified, we may fail to meet our reporting obligations or be unable to accurately report our results of operations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.
We are a public company in the United States subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting in our annual report on 10-K beginning with our annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. In addition, once we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” as such term is defined in the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In preparing our consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we have identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting, which is a lack of formal policies and procedures related to a risk assessment process and internal control environment.
Following the identification of the material weakness, we have taken certain remedial measures, including developing policies and procedures to formalize our internal controls over financial reporting. We also plan to undertake additional remedial measures, including engaging a qualified third-party internal audit firm to assist in designing, documenting, and testing our Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”) framework in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“SOX”) requirements; implementing company-wide control policies and standardized procedures for transaction approvals, account reconciliations, and financial reporting cycles; and designating internal personnel to coordinate control execution, while ensuring proper oversight from our financial and management team.
However, the implementation of these measures may not fully address the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to correct the material weakness or failure to discover and address any other material weakness or control deficiencies could result in inaccuracies in our financial statements and could also impair our ability to comply with applicable financial reporting requirements and related regulatory filings on a timely basis. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, as well as the trading price of our common stock, may be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, ineffective internal controls over financial reporting may significantly hinder our ability to prevent fraud.
Even if our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified, if it is not satisfied with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated, or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us. In addition, as we are a public company, our reporting obligations may place a significant strain on our management, operational, and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. We may be unable to complete our evaluation testing and any required remediation in a timely manner.
As a public company, we incur substantially increased costs as compared to when we were a private company.
We incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses as a public company that we did not incur as a private company. These additional costs could negatively affect our financial results. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq, impose various requirements on the corporate governance practices of public companies.
Compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations increases our legal and financial compliance costs and makes some corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. These laws, regulations, and standards are subject to varying interpretations and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. We have incurred additional costs in obtaining director and officer liability insurance. In addition, we incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. It may also be more difficult for us to find qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act and will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior December 31, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement under Section 404 in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting and permission to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.
After we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” or until five years following the completion of our initial public offering, whichever is earlier, we expect to incur significant additional expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404 and the other rules and regulations of the SEC. For example, as a public company, we have been required to increase the number of independent directors and adopt policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures.
We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules and regulations, and we cannot predict or estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
We may not be able to maintain the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq.
Even though our common stock has been approved for listing on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain the listing standards of that exchange, which includes requirements that we maintain our stockholders’ equity, total value of shares held by unaffiliated stockholders, and market capitalization above certain specified levels. If we fail to conform to the Nasdaq listing requirements on an ongoing basis, our common stock might cease to trade on Nasdaq, and may move to the OTCQB or OTC Pink Markets operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. These quotation services are generally considered to be markets that are less efficient and that provide less liquidity in the shares than Nasdaq.
Substantial future sales of our common stock or the anticipation of future sales of our common stock in the public market could cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. An aggregate of 42,623,215 shares of common stock are outstanding as of the date of this annual report. Sales of these shares into the market could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they publish a negative report regarding our common stock, the price of our common stock and trading volume could decline.
Any trading market for our common stock may depend in part on the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade us, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our Company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause the price of our common stock and the trading volume to decline.
We will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules, and may follow certain exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that could adversely affect our public stockholders.
As of the date of this annual report, our largest stockholder, Mr. Aidy Chou, holds and will continue to hold, directly or indirectly, more than a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock shares and will be able to determine all matters requiring approval by our stockholders. Under the Nasdaq listing rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group, or another company is a “controlled company” and is permitted to phase in its compliance with the independent committee requirements. Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled company” exemptions under the Nasdaq listing rules even if we are a “controlled company,” we could elect to rely on these exemptions in the future. If we were to elect to rely on the “controlled company” exemptions, a majority of the members of our board of directors might not be independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors. Accordingly, if we rely on the exemptions, during the period we remain a controlled company and during any transition period following a time when we are no longer a controlled company, you would not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” under the JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” and “smaller reporting companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, although we will lose that status sooner if our revenue exceeds $1.235 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three-year period, or if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.
We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company. We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or less than $250 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (ii) our annual revenue is equal to or less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or less than $700 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter.
We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. In addition, taking advantage of reduced disclosure obligations may make comparison of our financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible. If investors are unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry, we may not be able to raise additional capital as and when we need it, which may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
