Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Revenue increased 17.8% year-over-year, driven by a 18.8% increase in sales volume of transmission products (46,027 sets sold in Q1 2026 vs. 38,734 in Q1 2025).
• Expense Increases: Research and Development (R&D) expenses surged 855.4% to $0.78 million due to increased R&D activities. General and Administrative expenses rose 28.0% primarily due to higher consultancy fees.
• Cash Flow Shift: Operating cash flow turned negative ($1.19 million used) compared to positive ($1.24 million provided) in the prior year. This was primarily due to an $8.36 million increase in accounts receivable and a $3.81 million increase in notes receivable, offset by a $7.58 million increase in accounts payable.
• Financing Activity: The Company raised approximately $5.59 million in proceeds from equity and debt financing in Q1 2026, including a registered direct offering in January 2026.
• Capital Structure: The Company implemented a dual-class share structure in February 2026, reclassifying shares into Class A (1 vote) and Class B (25 votes). The Chairman controls approximately 88% of total voting power.

Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary

• HEVI Suspension: Substantially all operations of HEVI Corp. (electric industrial vehicles) remain suspended due to uncertainty regarding U.S. tariff policies. Management intends to resume operations once the policy environment stabilizes.
• Liquidity: Management believes existing cash, cash equivalents, and funding sources are sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months. The Company plans to maintain its current debt structure and may rely on government-supported loans.
• Internal Controls: The Company disclosed a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting due to a lack of sufficient and competent financial reporting personnel with appropriate U.S. GAAP knowledge. A remedial plan is underway.
• Listing Risk: The Company received a notification from Nasdaq regarding a bid price deficiency (closing bid price below $1.00 for 30 consecutive days). The Company has 180 days to regain compliance. Failure to do so could result in delisting.
• Geopolitical Risks: Significant risks include U.S.-China trade tensions, tariffs on Chinese goods, and geopolitical conflicts (e.g., Middle East, Ukraine) affecting global supply chains and energy costs.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Nasdaq Compliance: Verify the Company's progress in regaining compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price rule ($1.00) by the September 8, 2026 deadline to avoid delisting.
• HEVI Resumption: Monitor for updates on the resumption of HEVI Corp. operations and the impact of U.S. tariff policies on the electric vehicle segment.
• Accounts Receivable: Assess the collectability of the $25.9 million accounts receivable balance, which increased 50% from the prior quarter, and the associated credit risk concentration (one customer represents 16.44% of receivables).
• Internal Control Remediation: Review future filings for evidence of the remediation of the material weakness in financial reporting personnel and controls.
• Related Party Transactions: Scrutinize the $3.75 million in amounts due to related parties and the $0.51 million due from related parties, including the terms of loans and dividends.
