First Half 2023 Financial Results
Revenues
Total revenues were $36.6 million, representing a decrease of 67.8% from $113.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of sales volume of cryptocurrency mining machine and standardized computing equipment which was impacted from overall softening in market demand, as well as the lower selling price which resulted from the declining bitcoin price.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues was $35.3 million, representing a decrease of 61.6% from $91.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in procurement costs of cryptocurrency mining machines and standardized computing equipment for the first half of 2023, which was in line with the decrease in revenues.
Gross Profit
Gross profit was $1.3 million, compared to $21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenues. Gross margin for the first half of 2023 was 3.5%, as compared to 19.0% for same period of 2022. As the declining bitcoin price leads to the lower selling price of cryptocurrency mining machine while the procurement cost was relatively stable, the gross margin decreased sharply for the first half of 2023 from the same period of 2022.
Selling, General and Administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of sales and administrative employee-related expenses, professional fees, travel costs, research and development costs, and other corporate expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were a credit of $20.5 million, compared with $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The significant decrease was primarily due to the reversal of allowance for doubtful accounts which was recorded in year 2022.
Income from operations
Income from operation was $21.8 million, compared to $19.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Other expenses
Total other expenses, net of other income was $0.1 million, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to the interest expense in the first half of 2022 from the short-term bank borrowings.
Net income
Net income was $16.1 million, compared to $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Earnings per share
Basic and diluted net income per common share were both $0.66, compared to $0.68 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent were $3.7 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $4.1 million as of December 31, 2022.
