Insights

Financial Analyst

Global Mofy reports 34.2% revenue growth but declining profits due to strategic R&D investments that position the company for future AI-driven growth.

Global Mofy's latest financial results reveal a strong revenue increase of 34.2% to $26.7 million, showing robust market demand for their AI-driven virtual content solutions. However, the company's aggressive investment strategy has led to mixed financial outcomes. Their R&D spending surged dramatically from $0.8 million to $5.8 million, a strategic pivot that impacted short-term profitability but signals commitment to long-term technological advancement.

Breaking down the numbers, the cost of revenues increased by 84.3% to $14.9 million, primarily due to higher digital asset amortization. This rapid rise in costs outpaced revenue growth, resulting in flat gross profit of $11.8 million despite the significant revenue increase. The expansion of operating expenses to $10.1 million further compressed margins, with operating income falling to $1.7 million from $6.7 million in the comparable period.

The net income declined to $5.0 million ($1.19 per share) from $10.3 million ($5.56 per share), reflecting the substantial R&D investments. However, the improvement in gross margin for virtual technology services to 36.9% from 28.5% indicates the company is successfully moving toward higher-value projects.

Global Mofy's operational initiatives—including the launch of Gauss AI Lab, expansion into the short drama market with "Mofy Clips," recognition as a Beijing "Specialized and New" SME, and strategic investment in Ethiopian digital freight platform Wetruck AI—demonstrate a coherent growth strategy centered on AI technology development and market expansion. With $6.0 million in cash and short-term investments, the company appears to have sufficient liquidity to support its innovation-driven growth strategy in the near term.

• Revenue achieved $26.7 million, up 34.2% from $19.9 million.
• R&D investments totaled $5.8 million, up from $0.8 million in the same period last year.
• Net Income was $5.0 million, or $1.19 per share.

BEIJING, Aug. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Mofy AI Limited (the “Company” or “Global Mofy”) (Nasdaq: GMM), a generative AI-driven technology solutions provider engaged in virtual technology services and digital assets development for use in the broader digital content industry, today reported its financial results for the six months ended March 31, 2025, showing strong revenue growth of 34.2%, driven by increases in both virtual technology services and digital asset development business lines.

“The revenue growth in the first half of 2025 clearly demonstrates the ongoing efforts and contributions of the Global Mofy team in driving the company’s innovation and technological advancements. It also reflects the growing demand in the market for Global Mofy’s AI-driven virtual content solutions and 3D digital assets, as well as our leadership position in the industry.

“In terms of research and development, while our previous R&D investments were relatively modest, we recognize the critical role of innovation in our continued growth.

As a fast-growing company, it is crucial that we invest in cutting-edge technologies, and this expanded R&D initiative will help fuel the future growth of our business, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of the AI-driven digital content industry.”

Financial Results for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2025

• Revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2025 increased by 34.2% to $26.7 million, from $19.9 million in the same period last year. This revenue increase reflects the recovery in the digital content and entertainment industry, as well as strong growth in virtual technology services and digital asset development, both benefiting from AI-driven innovations.
• Cost of revenues increased by 84.3% to $14.9 million, compared to $8.1 million in the same period last year. The increase is primarily due to higher amortization costs of digital assets, which were allocated to this period.
• Gross profit was $11.8 million, a slight decrease of 0.1% compared to $11.8 million in the previous year. The strong revenue growth was tempered by increased costs associated with the expanded digital asset development and AI technology development efforts. Nonetheless, gross margin for Virtual technology services increased to 36.9% from 28.5% last year, due to the completion of higher-margin projects in the first half of 2025.
• Operating expenses increased to $10.1 million, from $5.1 million in the same period last year. This increase was largely driven by a rise in research and development (R&D) expenses, totaling $5.8 million. The Company’s strategic focus on AI-driven innovation, particularly through the Gauss AI Lab and the development of new digital assets, drove these investments. While this increased operational expenditure temporarily impacted profits, it is expected to fuel long-term growth.
• Operating income was $1.7 million, compared to $6.7 million in the same period last year. The decrease is primarily due to the rise in operating expenses, including substantial increases in R&D investments and amortization costs for digital assets. However, the company continues to maintain a strong operational model and anticipates that these investments will pay off in the longer term.
• Net income was $5.0 million, or $1.19 per share, compared to $10.3 million, or $5.56 per share in the same period last year.
• R&D investments were $5.8 million, up from $0.8 million in the same period last year. This increase is driven by the expansion of the Gauss AI Lab and higher technical service fees. The Company is positioning itself as a leader in generative AI content creation, and these investments are essential to ensure its continued technological edge.
• Total current assets as of March 31, 2025, stood at $14.0 million, including $6.0 million in cash and short-term investments. This provides a solid liquidity position to support Global Mofy’s ongoing growth initiatives.
