Key Terms

convertible notes, discontinued operations, diluted income per ordinary share

3 terms

convertible notes financial

"Convertible notes decreased to US$3.0 million as of June 30, 2026"

Convertible notes are a type of short-term loan that a company receives from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. They matter to investors because they offer a way to support a company early on while giving the potential to own a stake in its success if the company grows and later raises more funding.

discontinued operations financial

"predominantly driven by income from discontinued operations"

Discontinued operations are parts of a company that it has decided to sell or shut down, and no longer plans to run in the future. This matters to investors because it helps them understand which parts of the business are ongoing and which are being phased out, providing a clearer picture of the company’s current performance and future prospects. Think of it like a store closing a department—it no longer contributes to sales or profits.

diluted income per ordinary share financial

"Basic and diluted income per ordinary share attributable to shareholders"

Net income divided by the number of ordinary shares after assuming all dilutive securities (like options, warrants and convertible instruments) have been converted into shares; the calculation follows standard accounting rules that adjust both income and share count to show the effect of those potential shares. It matters to investors because it gives a conservative view of profit per share by showing how earnings would be spread if all claimants converted to ordinary shares, like measuring cake size after everyone’s promised slices are added.
