As we continue to advance our internationalization strategy, deepen partnerships with globally renowned enterprise clients, and strengthen cost management, we are confident in our ability to gradually restore and improve profitability while meeting the growing demand for large-format touchscreens. While 2024 profitability was affected by raw material fluctuations, increased labor costs, and new product investments, we believe these pressures are temporary and expect conditions to gradually improve as supply chains stabilize and procurement costs normalize with scale," Mr. Lian continued.
"While gross margin temporarily declined in 2024 compared to 2023, we have already seen a significant improvement in 2025, driven by supply chain normalization, increased orders from major international customers, and enhanced operational efficiency.

On the demand side, developed economies including Japan, South Korea, Europe, and North America are demonstrating resilient demand for high-end touch display products, creating broad incremental opportunities for the Company's global expansion."
