Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

Revenue

Total revenue was $10.8 million for fiscal year 2024, which decreased by 22.9% from $14.0 million for fiscal year 2023.

   -- Revenue from project sales was $10.4 million for fiscal year 2024, 
      decreased 23.2% from $13.6 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease was 
      primarily due to: 1) the slow-down of the China's economy that negatively 
      impacted the number of projects; 2) the change in the project-mix as a 
      number of the Company expanded into high-end hotel kitchen projects and a 
      number of them were in-progress as of June 30, 2024, and 3) average 
      revenue per project decreased by $53,138 to $114,529 for the year ended 
      June 30, 2024 from $167,667 for 2023. Lower average revenue per project 
      was the result of the Company's decision to strategically attract 
      potential customers in the central and western regions of China, such as 
      Chongqing and Xian and enhance brand awareness by lowering its project 
      quotations. 
 
   -- Revenues from retail sales was $367,976 for fiscal year 2024, decreased 
      by 13.1% from $423,527 for fiscal year 2023. The change in retail

      2024, decreased by 5.2% from $2.6 million for fiscal year 2023. The
