Previous report
Sales of parallel-import vehicle to the PRC market represented a significant part of our revenue before 2024. From 2016 to the first half of 2022, we experienced significant growth in sales volume, revenue, and gross profit of parallel-import vehicles due to our core strengths and a favorable economic climate. However, since the second half of 2022, our parallel-import vehicle business has been impacted negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic, the lockdowns in the PRC, and the weaker customer demand in the PRC caused by the deteriorated macroeconomic conditions. The parallel-vehicle import market has continued to be significantly affected by the adverse market conditions resulting from significant price discounting by luxury import brands and a shift in consumer interest to domestic electric vehicles (“EVs”). In 2023, we had a decrease in parallel-import vehicle sales by 30.5%, and net income by 87.5% compared to 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, our parallel-import vehicle business sales decreased by 95.0% compared to the same period of 2023.
Previous report
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we generated revenues of approximately $0.2 million from logistics and warehousing services. While we believe that tangible results of these efforts may not be apparent for several quarters, we have confidence that we are positioning the Company for substantial future growth in this business.
Previous report
The Company operates in two business segments: parallel-import vehicle sales and logistics and warehousing services. Revenue from the parallel-import vehicle dealership business is generated from the sale of parallel-import vehicles to both domestic and overseas parallel-import car dealers. We purchase automobiles from the U.S. market through our team of professional purchasing agents and resell them mainly to parallel-import car dealers in the U.S. and the PRC. In accordance with ASC 606, we recognize revenue when the performance obligation has been satisfied and control of the vehicles has been transferred to the dealers. For sales to U.S. domestic parallel-import car dealers, revenue is recognized when a vehicle is delivered, and its title has been transferred to the dealers. For overseas sales, the Company sells vehicles under CFR shipping terms, and revenue is recognized when a vehicle is loaded on a cargo ship and its title has been transferred to the dealers. We account for the revenue generated from sales of vehicles on a gross basis as we are acting as a principal in these transactions, are subject to inventory risk, have latitude in establishing prices, and are responsible for fulfilling customer orders.
Previous report
As stated above, the parallel-import vehicle business has continued to decline since 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, sales in the parallel-import vehicle business decreased by 95.0% compared to the same period in 2023, with no revenue generated during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The Company has been transforming its business from parallel-import vehicles to logistics and warehousing services since the acquisition of Edward.
Previous report
In the logistics and warehousing services segment, revenue from freight forwarding services, both export and import, is recognized when the services are provided, based on the relative transit time. Our role as the principal in these services involves managing the entire shipping process from origin to destination, allowing revenue recognition on a gross basis throughout the transit period. For warehousing services, revenue is primarily derived from storage fees, which are recognized based on the actual number of days the goods are stored in the warehouse while awaiting further transportation.
Previous report
Our cost of revenue from parallel-import vehicles sold mainly comprises (i) the purchase cost of vehicles, including dealership service fees and non-refundable taxes incurred during procurement, and (ii) fulfillment expenses, mainly including (a) compensation and bonuses for staff in the purchasing department, (b) commission paid to purchasing agents, (c) transportation and storage costs for vehicles, and (d) consulting fees paid to dealer experts to assist us in making the best purchase decisions. Allowance for slow-moving inventories is also included in the cost of revenue when our cost of inventory is higher than net realizable value.
Previous report
In line with the revenue decline in the parallel-import vehicle business since 2023, we recorded a 94.4% decrease in cost of revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Additionally, there was no cost of revenues recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Our cost of revenue from logistics and warehousing service mainly includes the associated costs of freight and fulfillment expenses. We act as a principal, controlling the goods and services, bearing inventory and pricing risks, and fulfill performance obligations directly.
Previous report
The Company obtained loans from finance companies through (i) LC financing by using letters of credit from our international customers in overseas sales of parallel-import vehicles as collateral, and (ii) accessing revolving lines of credit to further support our operations and strategic initiatives.

Previous wording
We are a provider of logistics and warehousing services, historically in connection with the sale of parallel-import vehicles sourced in the U.S. to be sold in the PRC market, and more recently for the transportation of other goods between the U.S. and the PRC. We began our operations in 2016 exclusively as a parallel-import vehicle dealer for luxury brand automobiles but have now focused on facilitating non-vehicle trade in view of the continued weakness for imported automobiles in the PRC.
Current wording
We are a provider of logistics and warehousing services, historically in connection with the sale of parallel-import vehicles sourced in the U.S. to be sold in the PRC market, and more recently for the transportation of other goods between the U.S. and the PRC. Parallel-import vehicles in the PRC refer to automobiles purchased directly from overseas markets and imported for sale outside of the brand manufacturers’ official distribution networks. This business contributed significantly to our revenue since our inception. Between 2016 and the first half of 2022, the Company experienced growth in sales volume and gross profit due to favorable market conditions. Beginning in the second half of 2023, the business was negatively affected by a decline in customer demand due to weakening macroeconomic conditions, price competition from luxury automakers in the PRC, and a shift in consumer preference toward domestic EVs. These market challenges led to a decline in parallel-import vehicle sales by 30.5% in 2023 and a reduction in net income by 87.5% compared to 2022. The decline accelerated further in 2024. Vehicle sales dropped sharply from 82 units in the first quarter of 2023 to 13 units in the first quarter of 2024. For year ended December 31, 2024, vehicle sales decreased from 303 units in 2023 to 14 units in 2024, resulting in a 95.7% drop in revenue from $38.3 million in 2023 to $1.6 million in 2024. In addition, the financial strain on the Company’s customers made it increasingly difficult to collect outstanding receivables. While the Company successfully recovered $4.0 million in 2024 and collected additional $2.5 million from the five aged accounts as of March 31, 2025, the remaining $1.6 million from two customers was determined to be uncollectible. As a result, the management recorded a credit loss of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
