Insights

SOS shows 150% revenue growth but declining profitability amid strategic shift from crypto mining to commodity trading.

SOS Limited's 2024 financial results reveal a significant business transformation with total revenue surging to $231.4 million from $92.4 million in 2023 - a remarkable 150% increase. However, this growth comes with concerning profitability metrics.

The most striking change is the dramatic pivot toward commodity trading, which now accounts for 92.6% of revenue at $214.3 million - up 213% year-over-year. Meanwhile, cryptocurrency mining revenue has declined by half to $9.3 million, representing just 4% of total revenue compared to 20.4% last year.

Despite the revenue surge, operating losses widened substantially to $21.6 million from $4.8 million in 2023. This deteriorating profitability stems from a severe compression in gross margins, with cost of revenue skyrocketing 187% to $224.4 million. The commodity trading business appears to operate on razor-thin or even negative margins when compared to the higher-margin crypto mining that it's replacing.

Operating expenses increased 50.6% to $28.6 million, with general and administrative expenses rising 64% to $18.1 million. The company's cash position decreased from $279.2 million to $239.5 million, with operating activities consuming $63.6 million in cash compared to generating $9.7 million in 2023.

The company's crypto holdings remain modest with 736.75 BTC (up 61.10 units) and unchanged ETH holdings of 2,924.79 units. The temporary shutdown of mining operations for facility upgrades during H1 2024 partially explains the mining revenue decline, but the company clearly emphasizes commodity trading as its future focus.

The diluted EPS worsened slightly to -$0.0299 from -$0.0269, reflecting the expanded net loss. While SOS maintains it has adequate liquidity for the next twelve months, the rapid cash burn rate and transition to a lower-margin business model raise questions about long-term sustainability without additional capital raises.

The company reported a significant year-over-year increase in commodity trading revenue, which soared to $214.3 million FY 2024, accounting for 92.6% of total revenue—up from 74.0% in FY 2023. This growth was fueled by robust domestic demand and the expansion of the company's product portfolio to include rubber and coal.

Conversely, cryptocurrency mining revenue declined to $9.3 million from $18.9 million in FY 2023. The dip was attributed to the temporary shutdown of the Texas mining facility for upgrades during the first half of 2024.
