Key Terms

3 terms
unrealized gain financial
"driven primarily by a $42.1 million unrealized gain on the Company's investment"
An unrealized gain is the increase in value of an investment that you still hold and have not sold, so the profit exists on paper but hasn’t been converted into cash. Like a balloon that has inflated but hasn’t been popped, it raises your reported net worth and signals how well an investment is performing, yet it can fall before you sell; investors watch unrealized gains to decide when to lock in profits, manage risk, and plan for taxes.
working capital financial
"Working Capital: $45.3 million as of June 30, 2026"
Working capital is the money a business has available to cover its daily expenses, like paying bills and buying supplies. It’s like the cash in your wallet that helps you handle everyday costs; having enough ensures the business can operate smoothly without running into money shortages.
View in glossary
api platform technical
"as we launched our API platform, generated our first AI-related revenue"
An API platform is a set of tools and services that lets different software systems talk to each other through well-defined connections, like a universal outlet that lets devices plug in and share power. For investors, it matters because a robust API platform can speed up product development, open new revenue channels through partners and third-party apps, and scale a company’s offerings more efficiently, while also concentrating risks around security, performance and regulatory compliance.

“The second quarter of 2026 was a transformative period for XMax as we launched our API platform, generated our first AI-related revenue,” said Xiaohua Lu, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We reported net income of $32.4 million, driven primarily by a $42.1 million unrealized gain on our investment in Preamble Capital, while our balance sheet was further strengthened by approximately $34.6 million in cash and $45.3 million in working capital as of June 30, 2026.”

“Our overall gross margin was 40% in the second quarter, compared to 50% a year ago, primarily reflecting the initial cost mix of our new AI-based services,” Mr. Lu continued. “Total revenue grew 7% as our new API-based services contributed for the first time, while our furniture sales declined due to challenging market conditions and the impact of tariffs. With our working capital increasing to $45.3 million, we have significant financial flexibility to pursue our strategic AI initiatives.”
