Grande Group Limited Announces Financial Results for the First Half of Fiscal Year 2026

Hong Kong, Dec. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GRANDE GROUP LIMITED (“GRAN” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GRAN), a Hong Kong-based financial services provider which principally engages in the provision of corporate finance advisory services and IPO sponsor services through its Hong Kong subsidiary, Grande Capital Limited, today announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2025 (“First Half 2026”).

First Half of Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results

Revenues

Revenues decreased by 83.2% from $1,750,043 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 to $293,929 for the six months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to decrease in our initial public offering (“IPO”) sponsorship services, referral services, general advisory services, independent financial advisory services and compliance advisory services.

Cost of revenue

Our cost of revenue decreased by $162,549, or 32.57%, from $499,092 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 to $336,543 for the six months ended September 30, 2025. This decrease was mainly attributable to decrease in staff costs and project related costs. The decrease in staff costs in First Half 2026 was due to a reduction in the number of staff, with a headcount of 18 as of September 30, 2025, compared to 20 as of September 30, 2024.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were approximately 394.2% and 40.9% of total revenue in the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the six months ended September 30, 2024 respectively. General and administrative expenses are mainly management and office salaries and employee benefits, depreciation of office equipment and leasehold improvement, operating lease cost, transportation and entertainment and other office expenses. The general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million or 61.8% from $0.7 million in the six months ended September 30, 2024 to $1.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 2025, mainly due to discretionary one-time bonuses payable to employees in administrative functions and higher traveling and entertainment expenses for client acquisition purposes.

Unrealized loss on equity security

During the six months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized an unrealized loss on equity security of $370,666 (2024: nil). This loss stems from its beneficial ownership in a publicly-traded company via an external investment arrangement, measured at fair value using quoted market prices.

Provision for income taxes

Our income tax expense changed from $97,248 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 to $nil for the six months ended September 30, 2025. Such change was attributable to the shift from net profit before provision for income taxes in the 2024 period to a net loss before provision for income taxes in the 2025 period, resulting in no current tax obligation for the interim period.

Net loss

Our net loss was $1,481,318 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, a marked shift from net income of $442,832 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Such change was the result of the combination of a substantial 83.20% decline in revenue, a $370,666 unrealized loss on equity securities, a 61.80% increase in general and administrative expenses, and a partial offset from a 32.57% reduction in cost of revenue.

Cash Flow

The table below sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $264,397 in the six months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $331,322 in the six months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease was mainly due to the swing from net income to net loss in the First Half 2026, partially offset by non-cash items including the $370,666 unrealized loss on equity security, depreciation, and operating lease right-of-use asset amortization. Changes in operating assets and liabilities also had a negative impact on operating activities for the First Half 2026. These impacts include favorable cash inflows attributable to movements in accounts receivable and contract assets, partially offset by cash outflows associated with accrued expenses, lease liabilities and income tax payable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $500,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, compared to no cash outflow from investing activities in the 2024 comparable period. This change was entirely attributable to the Company’s $500,000 investment in equity security during the First Half 2026.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $9,696,399 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, a substantial reversal from net cash used in financing activities of $1,010,715 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. This dramatic shift was primarily driven by the $9,778,464 in net proceeds from the Company’s IPO and a $314,101 contribution from a non-controlling shareholder of a subsidiary during the First Half 2026, neither of which had a corresponding amount in 2024. These significant cash inflows were partially offset by $396,181 in payments of offering costs related to the IPO.
