Today, the Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Financial Results for the Three Months Ending December 31, 2024:
- Total revenue increased by $9.1 million, or 21.8%, to $51.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $42.0 million for the same period in 2023.
- Revenue from our transportation services increased by $6.2 million, or 20.8%, to $36.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared with $29.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023, due to the addition of new warehouse locations, which has enabled an increase in shipment volume compared to the same period in 2023. This segment comprises reselling third-party carrier services to our customers.
- Revenue from our warehousing services increased by $3.1 million, or 25.7%, to $15.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared with $11.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023, driven by the addition of new warehouses acquired in the last fiscal quarter. This segment comprises inventory management and storage offerings.
- Revenue from other services decreased by $0.2 million, or 96%. This segment is primarily comprised of customs brokerage services.
- Costs of sales increased by $16.3 million, or 47.6%, to $50.7 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared with $34.3 million during the same period in 2023. The increase was driven by a rise in freight expenses due to higher UPS shipping charges and increases in lease expenses, employee salary and benefits, and temporary labor costs, as we expanded our warehouse and operations team to support growth.
- Our freight expenses, lease expenses (primarily warehouse operating lease expenses), temporary labor expenses, warehouse expenses, and salary and benefits increased by $8.3 million, $2.7 million, $2.9 million, $1.2 million, and $0.7 million, respectively, during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The increases in lease expenses were due to the additional operating leases acquired in the last and current fiscal quarter. The increases in freight expenses were due to the increase in UPS expenses. The increases in temporary labor expenses, warehouse expenses, and salary and benefits were due to the expansion of the warehouse operations.
- Our overall gross profit margin decreased from 18.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, to 0.9% for the same period in 2024, primarily due to the increase in the surcharge by UPS and the decreases in customer order volume, as well as some of the recently leased warehouses that are not fully utilized.
- Our net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $1.7 million, compared with the net income of $3.7 million for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $5.4 million.
Financial Results for the Six Months Ending December 31, 2024:
- Total revenue increased by $10.4 million, or 12.5%, to $93.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $83.2 million for the same period in 2023.
- Revenue from our transportation services increased by $5.0 million, or 8.3%, to $64.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $59.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2023, due to the addition of new warehouse locations which has enabled an increase in shipment volume compared to the same period in 2023.
- Revenue from our warehousing services increased by $5.7 million, or 24.7%, to $29.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $23.2 million during the six months ended December 31, 2023, driven by the addition of new warehouses acquired in the last fiscal quarter.
- Revenue from other services decreased by $0.4 million, or 93.7%. Other revenue mainly consisted of revenue from our customs brokerage services.
- Costs of sales increased by $26.4 million, or 37.5%, to $96.7 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared with $70.3 million in the same period in 2023. The increase was driven by a rise in freight expenses due to higher UPS shipping charges and increases in lease expenses, employee salary and benefits, and temporary labor costs as we expanded our warehouse and operations team to support growth.
- Our freight expenses, lease expenses (primarily warehouse operating lease expenses), temporary labor expenses, warehouse expenses, and salary and benefits increased by $11.5 million, $4.8 million, $5.7 million, $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively, during the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The increases in lease expenses were due to the additional operating leases acquired in the last and current fiscal quarter. The increases in freight expenses were due to the increase in UPS expenses. The increases in temporary labor expenses, warehouse expenses, and salary and benefits were due to the expansion of the warehouse operations.
- Our overall gross profit margin decreased from 15.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to 3.3% for the same period in 2024, primarily due to the increase in the surcharge by UPS and the decreases in customer order volume, as well as some of the recently leased warehouses that are not fully utilized.
- Our net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2024, was $6.3 million, compared with the net income of $6.5 million for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $12.8 million.
Liquidity
As of December 31, 2024, we had a balance of cash and restricted cash of $7.4 million, compared with a balance of $10.0 million as of June 30, 2024.
- Net cash used in operating activities was $9.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $3.5 million for the same period in 2023, representing a $12.8 million decrease in the net cash inflow provided by operating activities.
- Net cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, primarily attributable to $2.1 million cash used for the purchase of property and equipment, $1.0 million cash used for loans extended to others, and $2.0 million proceeds received from loan repayments.
- Net cash provided from financing activities was $7.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was primarily attributable to the net effects of: (i) $0.4 million lent to related parties; (ii) $8.1 million of proceeds from advance payment from the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (described below).

Management Commentary
Aidy Chou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Armlogi, commented, “While our significant warehouse expansion and enhanced operational capabilities demonstrate our commitment to long-term growth, we experienced challenges this quarter from increased UPS surcharges and underutilization of our newer facilities. We expect the expansion of our footprint to 3.5 million square feet and our presence in key logistics hubs to position us well for the future, but we intend to focus intently on optimizing our operations and improving facility utilization rates in the near term. Our investments in electric fleets, warehouse management systems, and new transportation partnerships underscore our commitment to sustainable, technology-driven growth. Looking ahead, we anticipate taking decisive steps to address our margin compression while continuing to build the infrastructure needed to serve our growing customer base.”
