Revenue
Revenue decreased by $1,352,983 or 44.9%, from $3,015,268 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $1,662,285 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily due to the decline in customers’ demands for OPS HK’s services during the six months ended December 31, 2023, as a result of the economic recession in Hong Kong led by the increased inflation pressure. To address the increased inflation pressure, many major central banks have expedited the tightening of the monetary policy and increased the interest rates, which caused the real estate market in Hong Kong to fall both in transaction volume and price. It also increased the cost of business operations of the customers, and thus, the customers delayed or cancelled the renovation, relocation and business expansion plans. The tightened monetary policy had slowed down the recovery of the economy in Hong Kong during the six months ended December 31, 2023 after an outbreak of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 pandemic in early 2022.
In terms of the major revenue type, revenue from the design and fit-out services decreased by $950,515, or 36.7%, from $2,592,354 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $1,641,839 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to the decline in customer’s demands for OPS HK’s design and fit-out services during the six months ended December 31, 2023 as a result of the economic recession in Hong Kong, as stated above. Others represent the revenue from the design only services and the repair and maintenance services, which decreased by $402,468, or 95.2%, from $422,914 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $20,446 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in the number of repair and maintenance projects and new design only projects OPS HK undertook during the six months ended December 31, 2023.
In terms of the property type, revenue from commercial and retail project decreased by $328,474 or 47.0%, from $698,676 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $370,202 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly attributable to the decrease in number of commercial and retail projects OPS HK undertook due to the decline in customers’ demands for OPS HK’s services as stated above for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022. Revenue from office projects decreased by $1,171,422, or 86.7%, from $1,351,112 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $179,690 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Such decrease was mainly due to the completion of one big office project with a contract sum of over $1.5 million, which contributed revenue of $1,107,008 during the six months ended December 31, 2022, and the decrease in number of office projects OPS HK undertook due to the decline in customers’ demands for OPS HK’s services as stated above for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022. Revenue from residential projects increased by $146,913, or 15.2%, from $965,480 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $1,112,393 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly due to the two new big residential projects with contract sum of over approximately $1 million OPS HK engaged during the six months ended December 31, 2023, which contributed an aggregated revenue of approximately $860,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2023, which partially offset the decrease in number of new residential projects awarded for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022.
Gross profit
The total gross profit decreased by $269,883, or 39.9%, from $676,960 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $407,077 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in total gross profit was mainly due to the decrease in revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022. The total gross profit margin remained relatively stable at approximately 24.5% and 22.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Operating expenses
The total operating expenses decreased by $95,856, or 11.7%, from $816,926 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $721,070 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Such decrease was mainly attributable to (i) a decrease in legal and professional fees of approximately $59,000, (ii) a decrease in provision for doubtful accounts of approximately $22,000 and (iii) a decrease in selling and marketing expenses of approximately $9,000.
Income tax expense
The income tax expense decreased by $17,920 or 84.5%, from $21,208 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $3,288 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Such decrease was mainly due to the decrease in current tax expense related to the assessable profits arising by OPS HK for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022.
Net loss
The net loss increased by $175,712, or 321.3%, from $54,680 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $230,392 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Such change was the result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $63,808 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, mainly derived from (i) various non-cash items of $46,153, such as depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets and interest of lease liabilities, provision for doubtful accounts and deferred income taxes benefit; (ii) a decrease in accounts receivables of $386,829, due to more settlement by the customers closer to the end of the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to that of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023; and (iii) an increase in contract liabilities of $236,466 as OPS HK increased billings in advance of performance obligations under contracts closer to the end of the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to that of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, which was offset by (i) net loss of $230,392 for the six months ended December 31, 2023; (ii) an increase in contract assets of $220,120, due to more services provided but not yet billed to customers closer to the end of the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to that of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023; and (iii) a decrease in accounts payable of $120,952, due to more settlement to subcontractors and suppliers on services requested closer to the end of the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to that of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $6,535 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 representing the purchases of property and equipment during the six months ended December 31, 2023.
Net cash used in financing activities amounted to $244,326 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which included the repayment of bank borrowings of $75,115, repayments to related parties of $60,741 and payments of offering costs related to the initial public offering of $108,470 during the six months ended December 31, 2023.
