Despite facing challenges, particularly due to the implementation of Golden Tax Phase IV, which introduced new complexities for enterprises in managing their taxes, we have remained resilient. One of the key highlights of our financial performance is the increase in our gross profit margin, which rose to 52.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 50.

9% in the same period last year. This improvement reflects our successful shift toward higher-margin revenue streams, especially in software sales, which continue to grow as we cater to larger clients. As we move forward, we are also actively expanding into new business modules to strengthen our market position.

We are exploring strategic acquisitions and partnerships, particularly in the technical services, which we believe will offer immense growth potential. These moves are aligned with our long-term vision. By leveraging our expertise and seizing these emerging opportunities, we are confident in our ability to drive sustainable growth and deliver greater value to our shareholders.
