Current report

SBS experienced a decline in revenue from its China and Singapore operations. The weakened demand for testing services in China was driven by the broader market downturn and ongoing trade tensions between China and the U.S. However, demand appears to be shifting from China to other countries in the region, benefiting the Malaysia and Thailand operations. Malaysia's revenue demonstrated year-on-year growth for both the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same timeframe in the previous fiscal year. Similarly, revenue in Thailand trended upward in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, indicating early signs of recovery from the cyclical downturn. The increase in revenue noted from Malaysia and Thailand operations has not fully mitigated the revenue contraction in China, and until trade tensions ease and macroeconomic conditions stabilize, we may continue to experience weakened revenue in our SBS segment.

Current report

The contraction in manufacturing sales in Singapore is similarly primarily driven by the overall market downturn, reflecting the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry—where phases of growth are often followed by periods of reduced demand, as observed in this fiscal year. The market remains highly sensitive to global economic shifts and changes in consumer demand, leading to fluctuations in performance. The decline in SBS segment demand underscores broader challenges across the customer base, where macroeconomic uncertainties and volatile external conditions have impacted financial performance.

Current report

Overall, the revenue decline in our SBS segment may be sustained in the short-term in the event the trade tensions between the U.S. and China continue and the resulting market downturn reflecting reduced consumer demand for semiconductors is not reversed. While external market dynamics are beyond the Company's control, proactive measures are being taken to align cost structures and operational capacity with current demand levels. The focus remains on preserving financial flexibility and ensuring the ability to efficiently scale operations when market conditions improve.

Current report

The decline in IE revenue was primarily due to lower sales of electronic components, impacted by temporary supply chain delays from our principal suppliers. These delays are timing-related, with recovery anticipated over the next few fiscal quarters. The Company’s production and inventory planning is guided by demand forecasts, which are complex and influenced by macroeconomic factors but allow flexibility to respond to changing market conditions. Although customers may reschedule orders on short notice or request short lead times, we continue to collaborate closely with suppliers to enhance responsiveness. The Company remains confident in its ability to navigate these challenges and is focused on strengthening supply chain agility and demand forecasting to support a sustained recovery.

Current report

The recent U.S. tariff regime announced in April 2025 could potentially influence downstream demand variability among our customers. While we have no direct significant exposure to these tariffs, secondary effects may arise if customers adjust their procurement strategies in response to trade policy changes. Based on our preliminary observations, demand appears to shift from China to other countries in the region. However, potential effects on macro demand in the future are far from clear, although we recognize the risk of revenue volatility should global demand continue to weaken due to the continued trade tensions between China and the U.S. and the potential that such continued trade tensions result in declining economic conditions. We continue to evaluate capacity adjustments in alignment with observable demand signals while maintaining operational flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions.

Current report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the SBS segment decreased by 2.4% to 26.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to 28.8% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the SBS segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $1,436, a decrease of $784, compared to $2,220 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. Gross margin decreased as the revenue contraction outpaced our ability to proportionally reduce cost of sales. Specific structural costs comprising our cost of sales, such as indirect technical labor and equipment depreciation have limited scalability, resulting in a proportionally smaller reduction in cost of sales compared to the revenue decline, which amplified gross margin erosion.

Current report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the IE segment increased by 9.8% to 28.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, from 18.3% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the IE segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $548, indicating an increase of $55, compared to $493 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The gross profit margin improvement in the IE segment reflects a more favorable product mix of equipment sales this quarter, with higher-margin products accounting for a significantly larger proportion of total sales compared to previous periods. This shift in mix dynamics where higher-value products drive more revenue has lifted overall profitability. This is in contrast with same quarter in last Fiscal 2024 when margins were diluted by greater volume of lower-margin sales.

Current report

General and administrative expense decreased by $284, or 12.1%, from $2,351 to $2,067 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in general and administrative expense was mainly attributable to lower remuneration related and travel expense in the current quarter as compared to same period of Fiscal 2024, driven by our ongoing cost optimization initiatives in the testing operations.

Current report

Selling expense increased by $12, or 5.9%, from $204 to $216 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in Fiscal 2024. The increase in selling expense was primarily attributable to an increase in commissions paid to agents for commission-based sales in the IE segment.

Current report

Loss from operations was $343 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an unfavorable transition of $402, as compared to income of $59 from operations for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The transition from an income to loss was driven primarily by a large revenue decline in absolute terms, which outpaced the reduction of operating costs proportionately, due to the inherently fixed nature of its operating costs, where a substantial portion such as depreciation, remuneration, administrative and professional fees, remained structurally rigid and could not be scaled down dynamically to match the decline in revenue. Consequently, the revenue shortfall had an amplified impact on operating profitability as fixed costs were absorbed across a diminished revenue base.

Current report

Other (Expense) / Income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

Current report

There was an unfavorable shift by $396 in other expense to $144 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to other income of $252 for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The shift was primarily driven by an unfavorable foreign currency movement, with unrealized exchange loss of $235, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, in contrast with exchange gain recorded for the same period in Fiscal 2024. Our net income is exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations as our subsidiaries' functional currencies differ from the U.S. dollar. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the strengthening of the Singapore dollar against the U.S. dollar resulted in unrealized foreign exchange losses, primarily from the remeasurement of USD-denominated monetary assets and liabilities.

Current report

In the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received government grants amounting to $22, $19 of which was an incentive from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment, and $3 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

Current report

During the same period in Fiscal 2024, the Company received government grants amounting to $12, $7 of which was an incentive from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment, and $5 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

Current report

The Company's income tax expense was $6 and $142 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Income tax expense declined in line with lower chargeable income attributable to the revenue decrease.

Current report

Loss from operations from the SBS segment was $3 compared to income from operations of $412 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The shift from an income to a loss from operations was due to a decrease in revenue and gross profit in absolute dollar amounts. Operating expense decreased from $1,808 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $1,439 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Although operating expense declined, the sharper drop in revenue, coupled with the fixed-cost nature of general and administrative expenses, led to an operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a reversal compared to an operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The bulk of these operating costs, which are largely inflexible to revenue fluctuations, could not adjust proportionally to the top-line contraction.

Current report

The IE segment reach breakeven for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decline of $26 from income from operations of $26 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decline was mainly attributable to a decrease in revenue and gross profit in absolute dollar amounts. Operating expense increased from $467 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $548 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. While gross margins improved, the significant decline in revenue was insufficient to offset the impact of operating expenses, where costs are primarily fixed in nature. As a result, the current quarter ended with a breakeven operating performance, a shift from the operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Current report

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024

Current report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the SBS segment increased by 0.7% to 27.4% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to 26.7% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. Despite the revenue contraction, gross profit margin improved slightly, mainly due to the completion of asset depreciation cycles in our China operations, lowering the cost of sales. Going forward, the Company remains focused on prioritizing cost control measures amid a challenging demand environment. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the SBS segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, was $4,972, a decrease of $1,110, compared to $6,082 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in absolute dollar of gross profit is attributed to the decline in revenue.

Current report

Operating expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

Current report

Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

Current report

Current report

Other income decreased by $189 from $366 to $177 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a larger unfavorable foreign currency impact, with an unrealized translation effect of $135 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025.

Current report

In the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received government grants amounting to $93, $81 of which was an incentive from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment, and $12 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

Current report

The Company's income tax expense was $196 and $274 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Income tax expense decreased due to lower chargeable income resulting from the decrease in revenue discussed above.

Current report

The revenue, gross margin andincome from operations for the SBS segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Current report

The revenue, gross margin, and (loss) / income from operations for the IE segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Current report

Cash and cash equivalents were $11,020 at March 31, 2025, reflecting an increase of $985 from $10,035 at June 30, 2024. The net increase in cash equivalents was partially attributable to proceeds received from the exercise of director and employee stock options in the current quarter and also from favorable changes in working capital.

Current report

Prepaid expense was $473 at March 31, 2025 compared to $536 at June 30, 2024. Prepaid expense mainly comprises insurance, rental and software license fees. The decrease reflect timing differences in expense recognition where the variance arises from scheduled amortization of prior-period prepayments, offset by lower new prepayment additions.

Current report

Accounts payable decreased by $1,217 to $1,958 at March 31, 2025, compared to $3,175 at June 30, 2024. The decrease aligns with reduced procurement activity, consistent with lower inventory levels and softer revenue performance, as operational needs were scaled down.

Previous report

SBS revenue experienced a decline across all SBS operations except Malaysia operation. The demand reduced for both testing services and product sales. The semiconductor market downturn impacted the segment's overall performance. The demand for these services is heavily influenced by the broader semiconductor industry outlook, as well as market trends and customer forecasts. Given the inherent challenges in accurately predicting market fluctuations, it remains difficult to anticipate shifts in demand with precision. However, the company is in a strong position to take advantage of any recovery in the industry and is looking into new ways to expand its services, which should help drive growth in the future.

Previous report

IE revenue experienced a decline due to a decrease in demand for electronic components. The demand for the IE segment is primarily driven by a combination of factors, including fluctuations in customer product demand, evolving market conditions, and the capital expenditure budgets and forecasts of our customers. However, our strength as value-added reseller enables us to respond quickly when industry changes. Over the longer term, management believes this strategy positions us well to sustain growth and enhance market resilience.

Previous report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the SBS segment increased by 4.9% to 30.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 25.1% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by lower costs, resulting from reduced depreciation charges, as certain assets in the China operations were fully depreciated by the end of the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the SBS segment for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $1,742, a decrease of $240, compared to $1,982 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in the absolute dollar of gross profit margin is attributed to the decrease in revenue.

Previous report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the IE segment decreased by 3.3% to 17.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, from 20.6% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the IE segment for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $485, indicating a decrease of $400, compared to $885 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decline is primarily attributable to lower demand for electronic components, coupled with an unfavorable product mix in equipment sales. In the IE segment, a portion of the cost of sales consists of fixed costs, which, when spread over lower revenue, leads to a decrease in the gross profit margin.

Previous report

General and administrative expense increased by $148, or 8.1%, from $1,817 to $1,965 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to the same period in Fiscal 2024. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to increase in manpower cost to cater to the Malaysia and Singapore business expansion and an increase in allowance for expected credit losses compared to same period of Fiscal 2024.

Previous report

Selling expense decreased by $72, or 29.0%, from $248 to $176 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to the same period in Fiscal 2024. The reduction in selling expenses was mainly due to a decline in commissions paid to agents, along with lower business travel costs.

Previous report

Loss from operations was $3 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $680, compared to income of $677 from operations for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decline was mainly due to the reduced revenue arising from weaker demand in our core markets, reflecting broader industry trends. Management remains committed over cost control initiatives, including tighter non-discretionary spending, to ensure the company is well-positioned to capitalize on future growth opportunities once the market stabilizes.

Previous report

Previous report

Other income increased by $768 to $686 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to other expense of $82 for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a favorable foreign currency movement, resulting in an exchange gain for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to an exchange loss for the same period in Fiscal 2024.

Previous report

In the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company received government grants amounting to $5 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

Previous report

During the same period in Fiscal 2024, the Company received government grants amounting to $4, related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

Previous report

The Company's income tax expense was $139 and $95 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Income tax expense increased due to lower deferred tax assets in our Singapore operation, driven by lower provisions, which reduced the deductible temporary differences. This was partially offset by lower GILTI tax due to lower chargeable income derived from controlled foreign corporation.

Previous report

Income from operations from the SBS segment was $97 compared to income from operations of $342 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in income from operations was due to a decrease in revenue and gross profit in absolute dollar amounts. Operating expense remained fairly cons istent at $1,645 and $1,640 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Previous report

Loss from operations in the IE segment for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $23, a decline of $317 from income from operations of $294 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decline was mainly attributable to a decrease in revenue and gross profit in absolute dollar amounts. Operating expense was $508 and $591 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly contributed to lower selling expense and corporate overhead incurred for the period.

Previous report

Comparison of the Six Months Ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023

Previous report

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the SBS segment increased by 2.3% to 27.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 25.6% for the same period in Fiscal 2024. The Company managed to achieve a modest improvement in gross profit margin despite the decline in revenue in the SBS segment, driven by lower cost of sales which helped mitigate the impact of revenue decline in SBS segment. The lower cost of sales was due to reduced depreciation charges, as some of the assets in China operations were fully depreciated as at the end of second quarter of Fiscal 2024. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the SBS segment for the six months ended December 31, 2024, was $3,536, a decrease of $326, compared to $3,862 in the same period in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in absolute dollar of gross profit is attributed to the decline in revenue.

Reworded paragraphs (47)

Previous wording

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, we made changes in our business strategy in an effort to better align with our focus areas and to streamline operations. While the semiconductor industry is and will remain a major market for the Company, an important component of our strategy is to reduce our historic concentration on this industry. As a result, we have decided to organize our operating businesses based on the markets that we serve. Beginning in Fiscal 2025, we report our financial performance based on our new segments, Semiconductor Back-end Solutions and Industrial Electronics.

Previous wording

The Company’s primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales and operating expense in its subsidiaries. Strengthening of the United States dollar (“U.S. Dollar”) relative to foreign currencies adversely affects the U.S. Dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, and generally leads the Company to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for the Company’s products. Margins on sales of the Company’s products in foreign countries and on sales of products that include components obtained from foreign suppliers could be materially adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In some circumstances, for competitive or other reasons, the Company may decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the U.S. Dollar’s strengthening, or at all, which would adversely affect the U.S. Dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings. Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar, while generally beneficial to the Company’s foreign currency denominated sales and earnings, could cause the Company to reduce international pricing, thereby limiting the benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase the Company’s cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar, recently observed as a result of current U.S. economic and trade policies, while generally beneficial to the Company’s foreign currency denominated sales and earnings, could cause the Company to reduce international pricing, thereby limiting the benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase the Company’s cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.
