Results of operations

Revenue 

As of June 30, 2025, SOS focuses on three product and service lines including Commodities Trading, Hosting Service and Others.

Net revenue was $89.6 million, up 48.1% from $60.5 million period-on-period. An increase in revenue is primarily due to higher sales of natural rubber, one of the key industrial materials, as the Chinese economy has continued to recover over the past six months. The ongoing recovery of the Chinese economy over the past six months has fueled increased demand for rubber products. There was no output of production from cryptocurrency mining business: to optimize the use of our limited infrastructure—specifically, physical space and electrical power—the company has decided to strategically reallocate resources toward our higher-growth segment. Effective immediately, the Company shut down temporary (at least during first half of the year) the internal Bitcoin mining operations (self-mining) to prioritize and expand our third-party mining hosting services, which have demonstrated strong and increasing demand.

Costs of revenue

Operating costs were $90.9 million, up 56.5% period-on-period from $58.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 which is consistent with our revenue increase. Operating costs comprised of depreciation of hardware, electricity power and depreciation from property equipment for cryptocurrency mining as well as costs of goods sold & warehouse rental for commodity trading.

Operating expenses

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses mainly relate to our commodity business and include freight-out expenses, custom clearing agency fee, warehouse rental expense, promotional expense, sales commission and payroll expenses to sales team. Selling expenses increased to $2.3 million from $2.2 million for the same period last year mainly attributable to the higher transportation costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $9.4 million, 35.0% down period-on-period from $14.5 million in the end of 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the fact that the mining machines have been fully impaired and no depreciation expense is recorded for them in this period.

Operating Loss

GAAP net loss was $14.2 million, compared to a net loss of $10.9 million in the six months ended of 2024, representing an increase of 30.3%. We concluded the period with a gross margin of -1.5%. This result is attributed to a sharp decline in the fair market price of our key products, rubber and petroleum coke. Specifically, we sold off a backlog of low-quality petroleum coke inventory at cost, and falling rubber spot prices caused a loss of over $1.6 million. In the face of slowing low market demand in petroleum code, our strategy has been to prioritize market share over immediate profitability for certain products. We are consciously offering competitive pricing with thin or negative margins to establish a foothold for future business expansion.

Income Tax

The Company paid $3,000 of corporate income tax for the current period as compared to NIL at the end of the six months ended June 30, 2024.

GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was $14.2 million, as compared to a net loss of $10.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

GAAP Basic EPS was $(0. 0139) per share, as compared to $(0.0299) per share in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Cash Flow Used in Operating Activities

As of June 30, 2025, the Company held $4.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $242.5 million from the prior year. The majority of this decrease stems from a strategic $228.4 million prepayment to secure the accelerated development of our proprietary blockchain commodity trading platform.

This decisive resource allocation was a strategic move to lock in long-term value by securing essential partner resources at a favorable cost and ensuring their undivided commitment to the project's success. This upfront payment is expected to yield significant competitive advantages and cost savings over the long term.In response to the lower liquidity position, management is pursuing a dual approach to supplement operating cash flow: optimizing internal business development and securing external capital through a registered direct offering under an F-3 or F-1 registration statement.

Cash Flow Generated from Investing Activities

The Company experienced nil investing activities for this period.

Cash Flow Used in Financing Activities

The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $6.8 million via a registered direct offering using a registration statement on Form F-3 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
