Strategic Approach to Sales and Distribution

Third Party Customer-Driven Sales Model

Since inception, we have been employing the strategy of engaging with distributors who purchase products from us and then market our products to consumers through the networks of prominent telecommunications carriers across the United States. We have been able to achieve substantial sales by working with customers who have existing relationships with prominent telecommunications carriers and can efficiently sell our products, allowing us to build presence in the market. In June 2018, we entered into a Master Agreement with T-Mobile USA, Inc., marking a pivotal expansion of our strategic alliances and direct market engagement with prominent telecommunications carriers. This collaboration exemplifies our dedication to broadening our reach and delivering sophisticated telecommunications solutions to an extensive consumer base.

Participation in Affordability and Accessibility Support Programs

In addition to our customer-driven sales model, we actively qualify for and participate in national initiatives aimed at enhancing the affordability and accessibility of communication services for individuals with limited income. As a certified supplier for the FCC’s Lifeline and Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), we play a vital role in efforts to ensure essential communication services are economically accessible. ACP programs provide subsidies or discounts on communication services for qualifying individuals. By offering devices that are compatible with these programs, we were able to attract more customers who are eligible for subsidies, thereby increasing sales. We were able to expand our business and gain a competitive advantage in markets where affordability and accessibility are key considerations for consumers.

These initiatives underscore our commitment to societal welfare, demonstrating our endeavor to not only achieve commercial success but also positively influence community connectivity and support the needs of households for work, education, healthcare, and beyond.

Internal Support

In order to maximize product accessibility across the United States, we have a team of dedicated internal sales staff and key sales agents who manage a network of hundreds of customers spread across seven major regions. In addition to managing direct partnerships with these customers, our internal sales team also collaborates with prominent telecommunications carriers, enabling our products to be available for sale online and in the physical retail stores of these carriers.

Digital Presence and E-Commerce

We actively expand our presence in the digital marketplace by making our products available on leading e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, Walmart, and eBay. We believe this approach not only broadens our reach but also caters to the preferences of digital consumers, offering them convenient access to our telecommunications solutions. By integrating into various sales channels, both indirect and digital, we are committed to providing high-quality products to a wide audience, driving our growth, and enhancing our position in the competitive electronics market.

Environmental Management Solutions

We are planning to expand our business into smart home and smart facility management market segments (combined, to be referred to “environmental management solutions”). We are in the process of sourcing a diversified portfolio of devices and developing various modules that enable smart features on these devices. As demonstrated below, we currently focus on products that target lighting, control, sensing, and shading. We expect to dedicate additional resources to develop other products for heating, security, entertainment, kitchen, and other hardware and equipment that are commonly used in commercial and residential buildings.

To achieve our goal of becoming a “one-stop shop” for environmental management solutions, we plan to source products that are essential ancillary devices and components of a full environmental management solution from various suppliers that manufacture high-quality products. We will integrate the appropriate modules that we will develop, as described below, using various open-source AI algorithms and technologies into the final products we offer for environmental management solutions. These products will be designed to allow compatibility with other environmental management solutions we offer and connectivity with the rest of Foxx-branded products.

We are currently researching and developing modules, which are hardware or software components that can be integrated into products sourced from commonly available market components. By integrating these modules into the products, we will enable them to connect to the Internet and share data with other connected devices and systems. Leveraging our expertise in the IoT and Artificial-Intelligence-of-Things (“AIoT”) market, our initial focus is on developing modules that enable seamless integration with other device components, performing essential functions within IoT and AIoT systems to create fully functional IoT devices. Our approach provides flexibility to apply these modules across different components of IoT products, allowing them to contribute to an integrated smart environment system that enhances the lifestyle of end users. The projects we are focusing on at the moment are:

Enhancing Device Management Products with IoT Capabilities: We are developing modules that can be integrated into various building management devices, such as HVACs, cleaning devices, robotics, and IoT sensors, into one centralized system for easier management and monitoring. We will use open-sourced AI algorithms such as Linear Regression and Neural Networks to develop the modules. We expect to complete a minimum viable product by the fourth calendar quarter of 2024. We launched cleaning device related pilot projects in September 2024 and scheduled additional pilot projects in the fourth calendar quarter of 2024 to conduct market testing and gather initial feedback for future adjustments.

Developing Digital Building Information Technologies: We are developing modules that will enable detailed digital building information in both 2D and 3D formats, which can aid both human users and AI-driven systems to understand the indoor environment and manage facilities more conveniently. We expect to achieve such technological capability by using SLAM technology for semantic mapping and creating dynamic digital representations of physical spaces. We have commenced the pilot testing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2024.

Modules Facilitating Task Management: We are developing modules that can connect building management devices and digital building information systems into a unified operational framework to allow real time task execution and planning supported by IoT connectivity. The modules designed to connect devices and systems will be tested in pilot programs to evaluate their application in building management devices and digital building information systems, assessing their operational efficiencies.

Once we complete the development of each of the above modules, we will conduct pilot programs and testing of such modules. These tests are expected to take place in the fourth quarters of 2024. Based on feedback from the testing, we will make product adjustments as needed. The purpose of the pilot programs and testing is to determine if all modules are fully operational and optimized based on real-world usage data. After that, we will prepare for a full commercial launch of the integrated platform in the first calendar quarter of 2025.

IoT Modules

We are building a portfolio of IoT modules, which are hardware or software components that enable devices to connect to the Internet and share data with other connected devices and systems. Our portfolio includes a wide range of IoT modules, including 4G LTE Cat 1 bis, Cat 4, Cat M, NB-IoT, 5G, 5G Redcap, 5G AI, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi modules. These modules enable the connectivity and intelligence of IoT devices, allowing them to collect, transmit and process data, and communicate with other devices and systems. Currently, we have completed the development and pre-production work for the LTE Cat 1 bis, Cat 4, Cat M/NB-IoT, and Bluetooth modules and will undergo lab testing. We aim to launch these modules in the first calendar quarter of 2025. We have started to develop 5G modules, 5G Redcap modules, and 5G AI modules, which may potentially launch in the second calendar quarter of 2025.

Warranties and Customer Services

We provide a one-year warranty on its products, offering after-sales service support to dealers in two ways. Dealers can opt for direct product replacement by us, or they can choose to receive 2% after-sales service spares from Foxx. In the latter case, our customers handle after-sales service to end-users independently after exhausting the supplied spares, without further support from us.

Competition

We believe the principal competitive factors impacting the market for our products are features and functionality, performance, quality and brand. To maintain and improve our competitive position, we must continue to expand our user base, invest in research and development, grow our distribution network, and leverage our strategic relationships.

Our products compete with a variety of solutions providers in different market segments. Our current competitors include:

●Smartphones and Tablets — Motorola, Inseego, HMD, TCL, Vortex, Tinno, BLU, Sky, Maxwest, and Hot Pepper.
●IoT Products — Netgear, Franklin Wireless, TCL and ZTE.

As the market for our solutions and services expands, other entrants may seek to compete with us either directly or indirectly.
