Sequentially, revenue fell from $18.28M in Q2 FY2021 and $31.82M in Q3 FY2021 as prior-quarter sales were boosted by bulk sales to the local government .
  • Gross profit margin expanded materially YoY (calculated ~48% vs ~32% in the prior year) on lower cost of sales; operating income rose to $0.51M (vs $0.49M YoY) despite higher opex, and net income increased to $0.36M .
  • Balance sheet liquidity improved: cash and restricted cash rose to $5.71M (from $3.47M at FY2021 year-end); customer deposits also increased ($21.80M vs $19.80M). Construction loans and taxes payable remain elevated ($120.97M and $23.08M) .
  • No formal guidance or earnings call transcript was available; S&P Global consensus estimates were unavailable, so beat/miss analysis cannot be determined (SPGI data not accessible for this ticker).

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

  • What Went Well

    • Margin expansion YoY: gross profit $1.36M on $2.88M sales (calculated ~48% GP margin) vs $0.88M on $2.76M sales in the prior year (calculated ~32%) .
    • Operating leverage: operating income improved to $0.51M (from $0.49M YoY) despite higher selling and G&A expenses; net income rose to $0.36M (from $0.29M) .
    • Liquidity uptick: cash and restricted cash ended at $5.71M vs $3.47M at FY2021 year-end, aided by positive operating cash flow and financing inflows; customer deposits also increased to $21.80M .
  • What Went Wrong

    • Sequential revenue normalization: revenue fell materially vs prior two quarters that were boosted by bulk sales to the local government—$31.82M in Q3 FY2021 and $18.28M in Q2 FY2021—highlighting volatility from project timing and customer mix .
    • Elevated leverage and payables: construction loans remain high at $120.97M; taxes payable $23.08M; customer deposits and accounts payable also sizable (potential working-capital strain if sell-through slows) .
    • Opex growth: selling expenses ($0.22M) and G&A ($0.63M) increased YoY, partially offsetting gross profit gains .

Estimates Context

  • S&P Global (Capital IQ) consensus estimates for Q1 FY2022 revenue/EPS were not available for this ticker; therefore, a beat/miss assessment versus Street is not possible at this time (Values retrieved from S&P Global unavailable).

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Sequential normalization after bulk government sales: Q1 revenue reset to $2.88M from $31.82M/$18.28M in Q3/Q2 FY2021 as prior quarters were boosted by one-off government reallocation sales; expect volatility tied to project timing/mix .
  • Margin strength YoY suggests favorable mix/cost discipline in the quarter; gross profit rose to $1.36M with EPS steady at $0.01 despite higher opex .
  • Liquidity improved (cash + restricted cash $5.71M; customer deposits up), but leverage and tax liabilities remain elevated; watch working-capital dynamics into subsequent phases .
  • Pipeline/regulatory overhang: Execution on Liangzhou-related developments and ongoing PRC real-estate tightening remain key to sustaining sales cadence in Tier 3/4 markets .
  • No guidance and no call reduce visibility; with SPGI consensus unavailable, near-term trading likely centers on project milestones (e.g., government acceptance, pre-sales launches) and additional disclosures .
