Insights

Financial Analyst

ZJK Industrial's H1 FY2024 results showcase remarkable growth with revenue surging 72.81% to $16.23M. The company demonstrated strong operational efficiency with gross margins expanding significantly from 34.34% to 46.57%. Key performance metrics are impressive across the board - net income more than doubled to $5.43M, while operating income jumped 149.33% to $4.91M.

The expansion into three additional factories and reduced discounts to major customers have proven successful strategies. With 86.50% of revenue from China, the company maintains a strong domestic market presence while showing potential for international growth. The healthy cash position of $8.56M and positive operating cash flow of $7.73M indicate strong financial health and operational efficiency.

Market Research Analyst

The precision fastener market positioning in new energy vehicles and intelligent electronic devices sectors puts ZJK in a strong growth trajectory. The 44.55% increase in sales volume coupled with a 21.91% rise in average unit prices demonstrates both market demand and pricing power. Notable performance across product segments - turned parts (39.73% volume growth), screws (45.98% volume growth) and stamping parts (12.84% volume growth) - indicates balanced portfolio growth.

The recent IPO raising $6.91M provides additional capital for expansion. The Vietnam facility addition suggests strategic geographical diversification, potentially reducing dependency on Chinese manufacturing while targeting new markets.

The gross profit margin increased by 12.23%, to 46.57% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, from 34.34% for the same period of last year, mainly due to (i) the average unit sales price of the Company's products increased as the Company reduced the discount provided to one of its major customers with stable cooperation; (ii) the average unit cost decreased resulting from the improvement of the Company's production technology and the discount provided by its suppliers.

General and administrative expenses

The general and administrative expenses increased by 245.36%, to US$1.22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, from US$0.35 million for the same period of last year, which was primarily attributable to (i) an increase of US$0.58 million in professional service fees due to an increase of accounting advisory fee, (ii) an increase of US$0.04 million in salaries and benefits for administrative personnel due to an increase of employee headcounts resulting from the Company's business growth, (iii) an increase of US$0.04 million in rental expenses as the Company entered into a lease agreement for a factory in Vietnam in April 2023 and two lease agreements for factories in Qingyuan, China in June 2024 to expand its production scale.

Selling and marketing expenses

The selling and marketing expenses increased by 123.17%, to US$1.18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, from US$0.53 million for the same period of last year, which was primarily due to an increase of US$0.38 million in sales commission and an increase of US$0.24 million in freight for selling activities which were both attribute to the increase of the Company's revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Research and development costs
