Idi Chao - Chairman and CEO - (00:04:08)

Good afternoon Ma' am and thank you everyone for joining us today. Fiscal 2025 is a year of significant growth and strategic investment for Armlogi. Despite navigating operational challenges and cost pressures, we achieved strong revenue growth reflecting standard demand for our comprehensive supply chain solutions, expanding our warehousing footprint and a customer base to position the company for long term success. As a US based warehousing and logistics service provider, we continue to support cross border e commerce merchants and domestic customer with one stop services including custom brokerage, transportation, warehouse management and order fulfillment. Our 10 warehouses spanning approximately 3,905,020 square feet across the US are equipped with advanced system for handling bulk items and we maintained a high standard including ISO 9001 compliance and an average inventory accuracy of 99.64%. I remain confident that our expanding footprint, technology platform and a growing customer base position us well to capture future opportunities. With that, I will turn the call over to our CFO Scott Hsu for a close look at the numbers.

Scott Hsu - Chief Financial Officer - (00:06:18)

Thank you. Idi. Now let's turn to our financial performance for the fiscal year 2025. For a detailed breakdown of our financial results, I encourage you to refer to our earnings press release and our Form 10K, both of which are available on our investor relations website. My comments here will provide a high level overview. For the fiscal year end June 30, 2025, total revenue reached 190.4 million, an increase of 14% compared to the 167 million in fiscal year 2024. This growth was largely driven by the continued demand for our transportation and warehousing services as well as a more than fourfold increase in our active customer base to 505. Cost of sales for the year were 193.4 million representing a 29.9% increase. These higher costs were primarily due to increased freight costs from our carriers as well as higher rental, labor and warehouse expense associated with the expansion of our operation footprint. This impacted our gross profit resulting in a loss of 3 million for the fiscal year. We are actively implementing measures to improve efficiency and profitability General and administrative expenses totaled 14.7 million representing a 47.2% increase from the previous year, primarily due to the investments in support of our growing operations. This resulted in a net loss of 15.3 million for the fiscal year or 0.37 per basic and diluted share. We end this year with a solid balance sheet comprising 13.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and the restricted cash. Looking ahead, our focus is on optimization of operations, leveraging our technology to drive efficiency and broaden cost management. We are confident that our expanded infrastructures with 10 warehouses across the US position us well to capitalize on future opportunities in the cross border e commerce market. We remain committed to our growth strategy and to creating long term value for our shareholders. With that comprehensive financial overview, I will turn it back to Matt for the questions.

Matthew Abenanti - Investor Relations - (00:09:14)

Thank you Scott. We will now move to the question and answer portion of the call. Thank you to everyone who has submitted questions. What do you see as the main drivers of revenue growth for fiscal year 2026 and are there any new contracts or customers expected to have a material impact on results?

Idi Chao - Chairman and CEO - (00:09:34)

Thank you Matt thank you for the question. For fiscal year 2026, we anticipate revenue growth to be primarily driven by continued demand for our comprehensive warehousing and logistics services, particularly from cross border e commerce merchants and our expanding US-based customer base. Key factors include the optimization of our 10 warehouse network which provide around 3.9 million square feet of space equipped for bulk items, and our focus on diversifying our customer mix beyond PRC based clients who account for around 84% of revenue in fiscal year 2025, we are actively pursuing the growth strategies outlined in our annual report, including expanding our geographic coverage and enhancing our technology platform such as ARM large order management system to improve efficiency and attract more clients. While we do not disclose specific contracts, we anticipate receiving contributions from the new customers in both domestic and international market. However, no single new contract is expected to have a material impact on our results in this time.

When does management expect the company to achieve consistent profitability and positive free cash flow?

Idi Chao - Chairman and CEO - (00:11:13)

This is an important question and we appreciate the focus on our path to profitability. We are implementing measures to address these issues, including operational optimization, cost management and diversification of carrier regulations to mitigate the industry work pressures. While we do not provide specific guidance on timelines, we expect to see gradual improvement in margins as our expanded footprints reached fuller utilization and efficiency strong technology investments take hold. Consistent profitability and positive free cash flow are key priorities and we anticipate progress toward this course in the coming fiscal years assuming stable market conditions and successful execution of our growth strategies. We will continue to monitor external factors such as the trade policies and inflation, but our broader investment approach position us well for the sustainable financial health.

How concentrated is revenue among your largest customers and how does ARMAGY plan to differentiate itself from larger logistics competitors or regional operators?

Scott Hsu - Chief Financial Officer - (00:12:36)

Customer concentration is a key consideration in our industry in fiscal year 2025 when customers accounted for around 10% of our revenue down from fiscal year 2024 when two customers represented 20% and 12% respectively. This reflects our ongoing efforts to diversify our customer base which grew from 105 to 505 active customers over the year with the mixed PRC based and US based clients. To differentiate from larger competitors and regional operators, we leverage our competitive strength high quality ISO 9001 compliant services with the 99.64% inventory accuracy and the 24.7 multilingual support, reasonable fees enabled by high volume processing and the long term carriers agreements, advanced technologies like our locale based OMS for efficient order management and an experience management team with a decade of industry expertise, our focus on bucket item handling, one stop solution for cross border e commerce and nationwide warehouse coverage position us uniquely to serve niche needs that larger players may overlook. Our agility enable us to surpass regional operators in terms of scalability and innovation.
