Part IV. (3) Anticipated Significant Changes in Results of Operations

We anticipate reporting the following significant changes in the results of operations from the same period of the last fiscal year:

Revenue Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $5.12 million, an increase of $1.76 million, or 52.27%, from $3.36 million for the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to more revenue from asset management service, as the Company hired more seasoned account managers to boost the assets under management (“AUM”) and thus improved the revenue to $4.37 million for three months ended March 31, 2024 from $3.16 million for the same period of 2023. Supply chain financing/trading increased $0.33 million from $0.11 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $0.44 million for the same period of 2024. It was due to the Company sold more bulk goods with ownership than as an agent. Other revenues increased from $0.09 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $0.31 million for the same period of 2024, mainly due to the increased debt recovery consulting service fee as well as U.S. dollar bond service income of approximately $0.24 million, as we did not have such income in first quarter 2023.

Gross Profit Gross Profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1.95 million, an increase of $0.75 million, from $1.20 million for the same period of the last fiscal year, mainly due to increase of the gross profit from asset management business and other revenues.

Other Income (Expense), Net Other expenses, net increased by $1.67 million to $1.72 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $0.04 million in the same period of the last fiscal year, primarily due to legal fees of litigation with FT Global.

Net loss from continue operation Net loss from continue operation increased by $1.83 million from $2.14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $3.97 million for the same period of 2024, mainly due to the increase in operating expenses, as discussed above.

Loss per Share Basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations were $0.20 and $0.20 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, as compared to a loss of $0.14 and $0.14 for the same periods of 2023, respectively. Basic and diluted income per share attributable to discontinued operations was $0.03 and $0.03 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to discontinued operations was $0.01 and $0.01 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, respectively.
