Risks Related to Our Business and Development
Our pharmaceutical distribution business depends on our relationships with manufacturers, suppliers and other business partners and our ability to maintain an adequate supply of products.
We rely on pharmaceutical manufacturers, suppliers, agents, logistics providers and other third parties to obtain and distribute the products we sell. Our ability to maintain or expand our pharmaceutical distribution business depends in part on maintaining these relationships and obtaining products on commercially acceptable terms. We may experience interruptions or changes in product supply as a result of manufacturing constraints, changes in supplier relationships, product shortages, regulatory actions, changes in pricing or commercial terms, logistics disruptions or other factors beyond our control. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities of products, maintain important supplier relationships or secure alternative sources on acceptable terms, our ability to satisfy customer demand and our revenue and profitability could be adversely affected.
We face competition and changes in customer demand, procurement practices and pricing that could adversely affect our revenue and profitability.
The pharmaceutical distribution industry in China is competitive, and we compete with national and regional pharmaceutical distributors, wholesalers and other companies offering similar products and services. Certain competitors may have greater financial resources, broader product portfolios and distribution networks, stronger purchasing power or more established relationships with manufacturers, hospitals and other customers. In addition, our results may be affected by changes in hospital and customer demand, procurement and bidding cycles, government or regional procurement programs, competitive pricing and changes in our product mix. We may also depend on significant customers for a portion of our revenue, and the loss or reduction of purchases by such customers could adversely affect our results. If we are unable to maintain customer relationships, compete effectively, participate successfully in applicable procurement processes or manage pricing and margin pressure, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
We may not be successful in expanding into new business areas or markets, and such expansion may expose us to additional operational, regulatory and execution risks.
Our current operating business is primarily focused on pharmaceutical distribution through Hupan Pharmaceutical. We continue to evaluate opportunities to expand and diversify our business, including into areas in which we have limited or no prior operating experience. As part of these initiatives, we expect to develop computational capabilities through Quantum Nexus that may have applications in therapeutic discovery, and we may pursue collaborations, acquisitions or other strategic transactions involving laboratories and research teams engaged in therapeutic discovery and clinical research. We have not generated any revenue from these activities and, as of the date of this report, have not entered into any definitive agreement with respect to any such transaction.
Our ability to successfully enter and develop these or other new business areas is uncertain. We may lack relevant industry experience, technical capabilities, personnel, customer relationships or regulatory expertise, and we may be unable to identify or successfully complete suitable collaborations, acquisitions or other strategic transactions. Any expansion may require significant capital and management resources and may expose us to additional regulatory, technological, competitive and operational risks. There can be no assurance that any such initiative will be successfully implemented, generate revenue or achieve profitability. If we are unable to successfully execute our expansion or diversification initiatives, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected.
Our long-term growth and competitiveness are highly dependent on our ability to control costs.
Our ability to grow our business and improve profitability depends in part on our ability to effectively manage operating costs while maintaining the quality and reliability of our products and services. In addition, our evaluation and potential development of new business initiatives may require substantial additional expenditures before generating any revenue, if at all. Such initiatives may require investments in technology, specialized personnel, research capabilities, professional services, regulatory compliance and infrastructure, and we may not be able to accurately estimate or control these costs.
If our operating expenses increase more rapidly than our revenues, if we are unable to achieve expected efficiencies, or if we incur significant costs in connection with new business initiatives that do not result in commercially successful operations, our margins, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Any failure to obtain or maintain requisite approvals, licenses, permits or other regulatory authorizations applicable to our business could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our current pharmaceutical distribution and related activities are subject to various licensing, permitting, filing and other regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We are required to obtain and maintain applicable approvals, licenses and permits and to comply with laws and regulations governing, among other matters, pharmaceutical distribution, product quality, business operations and other related activities. These requirements may change from time to time, and the interpretation or enforcement of applicable laws and regulations may also evolve.
Any expansion into new business areas may subject us to additional regulatory regimes and require additional approvals, licenses, registrations or permits. Because these initiatives remain preliminary, we cannot currently determine the full scope of requirements that may apply. If we fail to obtain or maintain any required authorization, we could face fines, penalties, operational restrictions, increased compliance costs or suspension of operations, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Failure to renew our current leases or locate desirable premises for our facilities, or challenges on the use of certain leased properties by us or our service providers, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We lease properties used in our pharmaceutical distribution operations, and certain service providers may also lease premises used for storage, transportation or distribution. If we or our service providers are unable to renew existing leases on commercially reasonable terms, we may need to relocate affected operations, resulting in disruption, additional costs or delays. As our business develops, we may also need additional warehousing or distribution capacity, and suitable premises may not be available on acceptable terms or within the required timeframe. Any resulting disruption or increase in occupancy costs could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
None of our service agreements with our customers is on an exclusive basis.
Our customers may purchase pharmaceutical products or obtain related distributions from other suppliers in addition to or instead of us. Although we have established relationships with certain major customers, there can be no assurance that they will continue to purchase from us at historical levels or at all. Any reduction in purchases by major customers could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may be subject to potential liability in connection with pending or threatened legal proceedings and other matters, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
From time to time, we may become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We may also be subject to potential liabilities in connection with pending or threatened legal proceedings arising from breach of contract claims and other matters. These proceedings, investigations, claims and complaints could be initiated or asserted under or on the basis of a variety of laws in different jurisdictions, including data protection and privacy laws, trucker or consumer protection laws, labor and employment laws, transportation laws, advertising laws, intellectual property laws, securities laws, tort laws, contract laws and property laws. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in defending ourselves in legal and administrative actions or in asserting our rights under these various laws. If we fail to defend ourselves in these actions, we may be subject to restrictions, fines or penalties that will materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even if we are successful in the attempt to defend ourselves in legal and regulatory actions or to assert our rights under various laws and regulations, the process of communicating with relevant regulators, defending ourselves and enforcing our rights against the various parties involved may be expensive and time-consuming. These actions could expose us to negative publicity, substantial monetary damages and legal defense costs, injunctive relief and criminal and civil fines and penalties, including but not limited to suspension or revocation of licenses to conduct business.
Our newly launched AI compute and managed inference business is at an early stage and may not develop as expected.
Beginning in September 2026, we commenced activities relating to the provision of artificial intelligence compute capacity and managed inference services through our indirectly owned subsidiary XDT Infrastructure I, LLC. This business is at an early stage, and our operating model, customer base, pricing structure, infrastructure requirements and service capabilities are still developing. We have limited operating history in this area and may encounter difficulties in acquiring and deploying computing resources, attracting and retaining customers, managing technical operations, controlling costs and scaling the business. We may also be required to make significant expenditures before generating meaningful or recurring revenue. If we are unable to successfully develop and commercialize this business, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Our ability to provide AI compute services depends on the availability, performance and cost of specialized computing infrastructure.
Our business depends on access to servers, graphics processing units, networking equipment, hosting capacity and related infrastructure. Specialized computing hardware may be expensive, subject to supply constraints, technological obsolescence or extended procurement lead times. Increases in hardware, hosting, electricity, networking, maintenance or other infrastructure costs could reduce our margins or limit our ability to expand capacity. In addition, hardware failures, shortages of replacement components or delays in deploying additional capacity could affect our ability to serve existing or prospective customers.
Interruptions, failures or security incidents affecting our infrastructure or service providers could disrupt our operations.
Our new service line depends on the continuous availability of servers, data center facilities, power, networking, software systems, APIs and other infrastructure operated by us or third-party service providers. Such infrastructure may be affected by hardware failures, software errors, power outages, network disruptions, cyberattacks, human error, natural disasters or other events. Even where customer environments are physically or logically segregated, a failure affecting underlying infrastructure may interrupt customer access or reduce service availability. Any prolonged or repeated interruption could result in contractual claims, service credits, customer loss and reputational damage.
We may depend on third-party technology, software, models and infrastructure that we do not control.
Our services may rely on third-party hardware, software frameworks, model architectures, APIs, hosting providers or other technology. We may be required to comply with applicable license terms, usage restrictions and technical requirements imposed by such third parties. If a third party modifies or terminates our access to its technology, changes its pricing or licensing terms, experiences service interruptions, or determines that our use is inconsistent with its terms, our ability to provide services to customers may be adversely affected. We may also incur additional costs to replace or modify affected technology.
Our use and deployment of customer-selected artificial intelligence models may expose us to intellectual property, licensing and other legal risks.
Under our current service plan, customers may request that specific artificial intelligence models, software or other technology be deployed on infrastructure allocated to them. We may not independently verify all intellectual property rights, licenses or restrictions applicable to customer-selected models or related software. If a model, dataset, software component or other technology is used without sufficient authorization, we could become involved in intellectual property, contractual or other disputes. We may also face uncertainty regarding ownership or permitted use of model outputs, fine-tuned models, configuration files or other technology generated or modified through our services.
Our business may be subject to evolving export control, sanctions, data protection, cybersecurity and other regulatory requirements, which could restrict our ability to provide AI computing services to certain customers or in certain jurisdictions.
As of the date of this annual report, we have not generated revenue from this new service line, nor have we engaged any customers. We cannot assure you that the future provision of advanced computing infrastructure, artificial intelligence-related services, software and technical access will not subject to export control, sanctions, data protection, cybersecurity and other regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which we and our customers operate.
In particular, certain high-performance GPUs, servers incorporating such GPUs, related software and technology, and certain transactions involving advanced computing capabilities are subject to U.S. export controls administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security. Depending on the applicable hardware or technology, destination, customer, ultimate parent, end user and intended end use, applicable requirements may restrict or prohibit certain transactions, require governmental licenses or other authorizations, or require enhanced customer screening, end-user and end-use diligence, certifications, recordkeeping, technical controls or contractual restrictions. Export-control requirements may also affect our ability to provide remote access to computing capacity or related services to certain customers, users or jurisdictions.
U.S. export-control requirements relating to advanced computing, artificial intelligence and semiconductor technologies have changed significantly in recent years and may continue to change. Such requirements could limit the equipment we are able to deploy, the customers or jurisdictions we are able to serve, the manner in which customers may access or use our computing infrastructure, or our ability to obtain or maintain equipment and services from suppliers. They may also require us to modify customer onboarding, know-your-customer and beneficial ownership procedures, technical access controls, contractual arrangements, or other aspects of our operations. Similar restrictions may arise under applicable sanctions regimes or foreign laws.
Because we have not yet engaged customers for this service line, we have not yet fully evaluated the regulatory requirements that may apply to particular customer arrangements, jurisdictions or use cases. We expect to conduct such assessments based on the location and ownership of the customer and end users, the nature and classification of the applicable equipment or technology, the intended use of the computing capacity and other relevant circumstances. We cannot assure you that required licenses or authorizations, if any, will be available or obtained on acceptable terms or within the required timeframe.
Any failure or perceived failure to comply with applicable export control, sanctions, data protection, cybersecurity or other regulatory requirements could result in governmental investigations, civil or criminal penalties, denial or suspension of export privileges, restrictions on our operations, contractual liability, reputational harm or increased compliance costs. Regulatory requirements relating to artificial intelligence, advanced computing and cross-border technology access continue to evolve, and compliance may require additional screening, technical controls, contractual restrictions and other measures. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could result in penalties, restrictions on our operations or reputational harm.
Rapid technological change could impair the value of our infrastructure and require significant additional investment.
Artificial intelligence hardware, model architectures and inference technologies are evolving rapidly. New generations of processors, networking technologies, model optimization techniques or software frameworks may make our existing infrastructure less competitive or economically efficient. We may need to upgrade, replace or reconfigure hardware and software sooner than anticipated in order to remain competitive. Such investments may be substantial and may not generate sufficient returns before becoming obsolete.
Our emerging quantum- and certain other advanced technology activities may become subject to an evolving and potentially complex regulatory framework, which could increase our costs or restrict our activities.
Our quantum- and certain other advanced technology activities remain in the development and evaluation stage. As we further develop these activities, we may become subject to a variety of U.S. federal and state, foreign and other laws, regulations and governmental policies relating to, among other matters, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, data privacy and security, cybersecurity, intellectual property, consumer protection, export controls and the transfer or use of certain technologies. The laws and regulations applicable to these activities may depend on a number of factors, including the nature of the technologies and applications we develop or use, the types of information we collect or process, where such information is collected or processed, the location of users or other data subjects, the jurisdictions in which we or our subsidiaries conduct activities, the industries in which our technologies may be applied, and the nature of our relationships with technology providers, research institutions and other collaborators. As a result, the regulatory requirements applicable to our activities may change as our business develops.
Laws, regulations and governmental policies relating to emerging technologies continue to evolve, and their interpretation and application may be uncertain. New or changing requirements could require us to obtain licenses, approvals or other authorizations, modify our technologies or data practices, impose limitations on collaborations or cross-border activities, increase compliance costs or restrict our ability to develop or commercialize certain applications. We may also incorrectly determine that a particular law, regulation or licensing requirement does not apply to us. Any failure to identify or comply with applicable requirements, or any significant change in the regulatory framework applicable to our activities, could delay or limit our development efforts, increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.
We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate or may operate, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA, to the extent applicable. The FCPA generally prohibits corrupt payments or offers of value to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business and also imposes certain books, records and internal controls requirements. As we evaluate potential expansion into new business areas or jurisdictions, including the possibility of conducting or generating revenue from U.S.-related business activities in the future, we may become subject to additional compliance obligations under U.S. and other applicable laws. Any non-compliance could result in investigations, fines, penalties, remedial measures, legal expenses or reputational harm, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
If we fail to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Based on management’s evaluation as of June 30, 2026, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to material weaknesses relating to (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting under U.S. GAAP and SEC requirements.
We are taking steps to remediate these material weaknesses, including hiring additional accounting personnel with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience, implementing formal period-end financial reporting procedures and controls, and enhancing our internal audit function and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance processes. However, the implementation of these measures is ongoing, and we cannot assure you that they will be sufficient to remediate the identified material weaknesses or prevent additional deficiencies in the future.
If we are unable to remediate these material weaknesses or otherwise maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to produce timely and accurate financial statements, investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting, and we may become subject to regulatory scrutiny or additional compliance costs, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common stock.
Our insurance coverage may not be sufficient, which could expose us to significant costs and business disruptions.
We have obtained or caused relevant counterparties to obtain insurance to cover certain potential risks and liabilities. There can be no assurance that our insurance coverage is sufficient to prevent us from any loss or that we will be able to successfully claim our losses under our current insurance policies on a timely basis, or at all. If we incur any loss that is not covered by our insurance policies, or the compensated amount is significantly less than our actual loss, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Risks Related to Our Business Operations in the PRC
The PRC government may exert significant influence over our PRC subsidiaries’ operations, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or in the value of the securities we are registering, and could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
Our operating subsidiary, Hupan Pharmaceutical, is a China-based company and has business operations in the PRC. Accordingly, the PRC government has significant oversight, control and discretion over the conduct of Hupan Pharmaceutical’s business and may intervene or influence our operations at any time. The PRC government has recently published new policies that significantly affected certain industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future do the same regarding Hupan Pharmaceutical’s industry, including policies that could require us to seek permission from the PRC authorities to continue to operate our PRC business.
In February 2023, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) released the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Enterprises (the “Trial Measures”), which came into effect on March 31, 2023. The Trial Measures comprehensively improve and reform the existing regulatory regime for overseas offering and listing of PRC domestic companies’ securities and regulate both direct and indirect overseas offering and listing of PRC domestic companies’ securities by adopting a filing-based regulatory regime.
In February 2023, the CSRC and other PRC governmental authorities jointly issued the Provisions on Strengthening the Confidentiality and Archives Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Confidentiality Provisions”), which came into effect on March 31, 2023. According to the Confidentiality Provisions, PRC domestic companies that directly or indirectly conduct overseas offerings and listings shall strictly abide by the laws and regulations on confidentiality when providing or publicly disclosing, whether directly or through their overseas listed entities, materials to securities services providers. In the event such materials contain state secrets or working secrets of government agencies, PRC domestic companies shall first obtain approval from authorities, and file with the secrecy administrative department at the same level with the approving authority; in the event that such materials, if divulged, will jeopardize national security or public interest, PRC domestic companies shall comply with procedures stipulated by national regulations.
Following the disposition of our U.S. business in February 2026, a substantial majority of our current revenue is derived from its PRC operations. We intend to develop additional business lines through subsidiaries in the Cayman Islands. However, these planned businesses remain subject to development and commercialization risks, and there can be no assurance that we will successfully establish meaningful operations or generate material revenue outside China.
If (i) we mistakenly conclude that certain regulatory filings, permissions and approvals are not required, (ii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change, or (iii) we are required to obtain such filings, permissions or approvals in the future, we may be unable to obtain them in a timely manner, or at all, and such filings, permissions or approvals may be denied or rescinded even if obtained. We may face adverse actions or sanctions by the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies if we are unable to comply with such requirements, which may result in fines and penalties, restrictions on our operations, having to delist from a stock exchange outside of China, the halting of securities offerings to foreign investors and/or other actions that could materially and adversely affect our operations.
Any such actions or sanctions, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit, delay or hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, could result in a material change in our operations and/or in the value of the securities we are registering, and could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless. We currently expect to fund our operations primarily through cash generated from our existing business operations and, as appropriate, through future capital raising activities. To the extent additional capital is required to support the research and development, commercialization or expansion of our planned quantum-enabled artificial intelligence, post-quantum cryptography or other new business initiatives, including any strategic acquisitions or collaborations, our ability to successfully pursue such initiatives may depend in part on our ability to access the capital markets. If governmental actions or regulatory restrictions were to limit, delay or prevent us from conducting future securities offerings, our ability to obtain additional financing could be adversely affected, which could in turn delay or limit the development, commercialization or expansion of our planned new business activities.
Changes in political, economic and other policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of the PRC, which could reduce the demand for products offered by Hupan Pharmaceutical, and therefore adversely affect our financial results.
The PRC government has implemented various measures to promote economic development and regulate the allocation of resources. Although some of these measures may benefit the PRC economy generally, they may adversely affect Hupan Pharmaceutical’s medical product wholesale and distribution operations.

The following discussion
and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements
and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report.annual report. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion
contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those
discussed in the forward-looking statements. All amounts included herein with respect to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025
2026 and 20242025 are derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.annual report. Our financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP.
Prior to February 12, 2026, we operated as a U.S.-based integrated cross-border supply chain solutions provider with a strategic focus on the Asian market, including China, through ABL Chicago, and were also engaged in the distribution of pharmaceutical products in China through Hupan Pharmaceutical. On February 12, 2026, we transferred the operations of ABL Chicago to an unrelated third party, which obtained operational control and substantially all economic interests associated with the business. Following the transfer, we ceased substantive involvement in ABL Chicago’s operations. Accordingly, the operations of ABL Chicago were classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements. The disposal represents a strategic shift in our business operations and allows management to further streamline resources and focus on the development and expansion of our pharmaceutical distribution business.
Our continuing operations are focused on the distribution of pharmaceutical products in China through Hupan Pharmaceutical. Revenue from continuing pharmaceutical operations was primarily derived from infusion products, specialty prescription drugs, and medical nutrition products. We procure products from manufacturers, store the products at designated warehouses, and distribute them to hospitals, distributors and other healthcare providers, primarily through agents. The Company operates within a highly regulated healthcare environment and generates revenue through sales to distributors, hospitals, and clinics.
Beginning in September 2026, the Company, through its indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, XDT Infrastructure I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, commenced activities relating to the provision of artificial intelligence compute capacity and managed inference services. Under this business model, the Company’s subsidiary procures, owns and operates servers and related computing infrastructure for its own account, and makes capacity on that infrastructure available to customers as a service. Capacity allocated to a customer is logically and operationally segregated from capacity allocated to other customers, with the level of segregation depending on the applicable customer arrangement. Customers may specify the artificial intelligence models to be deployed on the capacity allocated to them, subject to technical compatibility, licensing and other applicable requirements, as well as the Company’s operation of the underlying infrastructure. XDT’s role is primarily to provide and operate the underlying computing infrastructure and managed inference environment. As of the date of this report, the Company does not plan to develop or train proprietary AI models and does not use customer-provided content to train models unless separately authorized by the applicable customer.
The Company continually evaluates potential opportunities to expand and diversify its business operations. Smart Reserve Holding LTD and Smart Reserve Inc were formed in connection with the Company’s preliminary evaluation of potential opportunities relating to digital asset business activities. As of the date of this report, the Company has not commenced any such business and has not adopted any concrete operational plan relating thereto. Any future expansion initiatives may be affected by factors including market conditions, capital availability, regulatory developments, operational execution, technological requirements, and management resources.
The Company’s results of operations for the period reflect the performance of its continuing pharmaceutical distribution business, and accordingly, prior period results have been recast to present the disposed business as discontinued operations where applicable. Management evaluates the performance of the continuing operations based on revenue growth, gross margin, operating efficiency, and working capital.
We are a U.S.-based integrated
cross-border supply chain solution provider with a strategic focus on the Asian market including China and South Korea. We primarily provide
customized cross-border ocean freight solutions and airfreight solutions in the U.S. that specifically cater to our customers’
requirements and needs in transporting goods into the U.S. We offer a wide variety of integrated services under our cross-border
ocean freight solutions and cross-border airfreight solutions, including (i) cross-border freight consolidation and forwarding services,
(ii) customs clearance services, (iii) warehousing and distribution services and (iv) U.S. domestic ground transportation
services.
Founded in Chicago, Illinois in 2018, we are an Asian American-owned
business rooted in the U.S. with in-depth understanding of both the U.S. and Asian international trading and logistics service
markets. Our customers are typically Asia- and U.S.-based logistics service companies serving large e-commerce platforms, social commerce
platforms and manufacturers to sell and transport consumer and industrial goods made in Asia into the U.S. As of June 30, 2025, we
had served over 400 customers to fulfill over 55,000 cross-border supply chain solution orders.
We have established an extensive collaboration network of service providers,
including global freight carriers for our cross-border freight consolidation and forwarding services as well as domestic ground transportation
carriers for our U.S. domestic transportation services. As of June 30, 2025, we had collaborated with almost all major global ocean
and air carriers to forward 35,900 TEU of container loads and 69,300 tons of air cargo. As of June 30, 2025, we had also cooperated with
over 200 domestic ground transportation carriers, including almost all major U.S. domestic ground transportation carriers, on a long-term,
short-term or order basis, as the case may be.
We operate three massive and
hyper-busy regional warehousing and distribution centers in the U.S., in Illinois and Texas. With an aggregate gross feet area of approximately
142,484 square feet and 52 docks, our regional warehousing and distribution centers have an aggregate daily floor load of up to 3,000
cubic meters of freight. In addition to our self-operated regional centers, we maintain close contact with over 150 warehouses and distribution
terminals in almost all transportation hubs in the U.S. which we have cooperated in the past to support the warehousing and distributing
services of our cross-border freight in case such freight requires storage, fulfilment, transloading, palletizing, packaging or distribution
in states other than Illinois and Texas. As of June 30, 2025, we had assisted with the customs clearance, in conjunction with our other
service offerings, of cross-border freight of an aggregate assessed value of over $54.0 million.
Leveraging our strong cross-border supply chain service capabilities,
extensive service provider network of cross-border freight carriers and U.S. domestic ground transportation carriers, massive and
hyper-busy regional warehousing and distribution centers as well as deep understanding of the Asian market, we have been able to build
up our brand and reputation and have achieved fast growth since our inception. As of June 30, 2025, we had fulfilled over 55,000 cross-border
supply chain solution orders for freight of an aggregate assessed value of $1.0 billion, delivered to thousands of business and residential
addresses in approximately 48 U.S. states.
During the year ended June
30, 2025, we had a new business segment through acquired 100% equity interest of Hupan Pharmaceutical, a comprehensive pharmaceutical
distribution and supply chain service provider headquartered in Wuhan, China with verticals in brand promotion and healthcare technology
support. We have partnered with some pharmaceutical manufacturers to supply infusion fluids, which are our major pharmaceutical products
sold and distributed during the year.
For the year ended June 30,
2025 and 2024, our revenues amounted to $17.8 million and $18.3 million, respectively, and our gross profit amounted to $2.9 million and
$3.7 million during the same periods, respectively.
Regulatory Environment in China
The pharmaceutical industry in China is subject to extensive government regulation, including pricing controls, tendering processes, and reimbursement policies. Government initiatives, such as centralized procurement programs and healthcare reforms, may affect product pricing, sales volumes, and margin levels.
Supplier and Manufacturer Relationships
The Company relies on relationships with pharmaceutical manufacturers and suppliers for product sourcing. Changes in supply terms, pricing arrangements, or product availability may impact revenue and gross margins.
Customer Concentration and Hospital Demand
A significant portion of the Company’s sales is generated from hospitals and large distributors. Purchasing patterns, tender cycles, and changes in hospital demand or procurement policies can lead to fluctuations in revenue. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we have generated revenue from the distribution of pharmaceutical products from 63 customers, of which, four customers took over 10% of the revenue.
Pricing Pressure and Competition
The Company operates in a competitive market with pressure from both domestic and international pharmaceutical distributors. Competitive pricing dynamics and participation in government bidding processes may compress margins.
Product types and composition
During the year ended June 30, 2026, the pharmaceutical products we distribute mainly consist of infusion drugs, specialty foods, and therapeutic drugs. The profitability level of different products varies, and the proportion of various products affects our gross profit level.
Accounts receivable collection
The current payment term provided by us to our main customers is between 0-90 days; while the payment term from the supplier is 60 days. There is also a situation of prepaying payment to the supplier. If the accounts receivable cannot be collected in a timely manner or there are identifiable uncollectible balances, our cash flow in operating activities may be negatively affected.
Foreign Currency Fluctuations
As the Company operates primarily in China while reporting in United States Dollar (“USD”), fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, particularly between the Renminbi and the reporting currency, may impact reported revenue and profitability.
Our Ability to Expand Our Customer Base
Our results of operations are dependent upon our ability to expand
and maintain our customer base. As of June 30, 2025, we had served over 400 customers to fulfill over 55,500 cross-border supply chain
solution orders. We will continue to expand our customer base to achieve a sustainable business growth. We aim to attract new customers
and maintain our existing customers. We plan to improve the quality and expand the variety of our services to obtain more customers.
During fiscal year 2025, we
introduced a new revenue stream through the distribution of pharmaceutical and medical products. Under this model, we purchase products
directly from manufacturers, store them in designated warehouses, and deliver them to customers’ warehouses or other specified locations.
While this business expansion creates opportunities to reach new customers in the healthcare sector. It also exposes us to additional
risks compared with our traditional cross-border logistics services. These risks include heightened regulatory and compliance requirements
for the handling and distribution of medical products, increased working capital exposure from holding inventory, and greater operational
complexity in maintaining product quality and safety. Successfully expanding our customer base in this new segment will depend on our
ability to manage these risks effectively while maintaining high service standards and compliance with applicable regulations.
Our Ability to Control Costs
Our results of operations
are affected by our ability to control costs including transportation and delivery costs, warehouse service charges, custom declaration
and terminal charges, freight arrangement charges and other overhead cost allocation, which may be subject to factors, including, among
other things, fluctuations in wage rates, fuel prices, toll fees, and leasing costs. Effective cost-control measures have a direct impact
on our financial condition and results of operations. For example, our cross-border freight carrier and U.S. domestic ground transportation
carrier services providers use large quantities of fuel to operate vehicles, and therefore, hence the higher fuel cost incurred by them
may causes our higher fee rates cost charged on us by such the service providers. The availability and price of fuel and third-party transportation
capacity are subject to political, economic, and market factors that are beyond our control. We also incur a significant amount of costs
in relation to transportation and labor. Any unexpected increase in these costs, which is subject to factors beyond our control, could
adversely impact our profitability. We have adopted, and expect to adopt, additional cost control measures. However, the measures we have
adopted or will adopt in the future may not be as effective as expected. If we are not able to effectively control our costs and adjust
the level of fee rates based on operating costs and market conditions, our profitability and cash flow may be adversely affected.
With the introduction of our new pharmaceutical
and medical product distribution business in fiscal year 2025, our cost structure has become more complex. Unlike our traditional cross-border
logistics services, which are largely variable in nature, the new business requires us to hold inventory, maintain specialized warehouse
conditions, and comply with more stringent product handling standards. These factors may increase fixed operating costs, including storage,
insurance, and quality control expenses. Consequently, our ability to control costs in this new business segment will depend not only
on fuel and labor trends but also on our efficiency in managing inventory turnover and compliance-related expenses.
We have implemented, and expect to continue adopting,
additional cost-control measures to mitigate these risks. However, such measures may not always be as effective as anticipated. If we
are unable to effectively control our operating costs or adjust our pricing in response to changing market conditions, our profitability
and cash flows may be adversely affected.
Our Ability to Provide High-quality Services
Our results of operations
depend on our ability to maintain and further enhance our service quality. Together with our network of service providers, we provide
integrated cross-border ocean and air freight supply chain solutions and services to our customers. If we or our service providers are
unable to provide express delivery services in a timely, reliable, safe and secure manner, our reputation and customer loyalty could be
negatively affected. In additional, if our customer service personnel fail to satisfy customer needs or respond effectively to customer
complaints, we may lose potential or existing customers and experience a decrease in customer orders, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As we expand into pharmaceutical
and medical product distribution, maintaining high-quality service standards becomes even more critical. This new business line involves
additional operational requirements, such as temperature-controlled storage, specialized handling, and compliance with healthcare product
regulations. Any lapse in these areas could result in regulatory penalties, product spoilage, or loss of customer trust. Compared to our
existing logistics operations, the consequences of service failures in this segment could be more severe, given the sensitive nature of
medical products and the higher expectations of healthcare customers. Ensuring consistent service quality will therefore require enhanced
employee training, strengthened supplier oversight, and continuous monitoring of compliance procedures.
Strategic Acquisitions and Investments
Our results of operations
also depend on our ability to pursue strategic acquisitions and investments in expanding our global footprints, diversifying our service
offerings, and advancing our technologies. We may selectively pursue mergers, acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and partnerships
that we believe are strategic and complementary to our operations and technology. However, we cannot assure you that we will make prudent
decisions at all times. Our ability to successfully execute or effectively operate, integrate, leverage and grow these investments or
strategic partnerships could impact our results of operations and financial conditions.
In response to governmental
directives and recommended safety measures, we have implemented personal safety measures at all of our facilities. However, these measures
may not be sufficient to mitigate the risk of infection by COVID-19. If a significant number of our employees, or third parties performing
key functions, including our chief executive officer and members of our board of directors, become ill, our business may be further adversely
impacted.
The impact of COVID-19 pandemic
on us in the future will depend on future developments which are highly unpredictable and beyond our control, such as the frequency, duration
and severity of the resurgence of COVID-19 and the emergence of new variants, as well as the measures that may be taken by governments
around the world in response to these developments, the impact of the pandemic on the global economy and the measures taken by governments
to stimulate the general economy. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the pandemic will not continue to have an adverse effect on our
business and results of operations in the future, which may be material.
We will continue to actively
monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign
authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, service providers and stockholders.
Uncertainty and Impacts on the Recent U.S.
Tarriff Policies and Regulations
Our results of operations
also depend on our ability to respond with the recent tariff and other restrictions placed on imports. Since February 2025, trade between
the U.S. and China has remained under tight restrictions and elevated trade barriers. While some temporary relief measures and exemptions
were granted, most U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods remain in place, particularly affecting key sectors such as agriculture, automobiles,
industrial materials, and consumer goods. These trade measures have significantly disrupted U.S.-China commerce, reducing exports in certain
categories and forcing companies on both sides to adjust supply chains, pricing, and sourcing strategies. Despite some ongoing negotiations,
the overall trade environment remains challenging and uncertain, with cross-border business continuing to face heightened costs and operational
complexities.
In May 2025, the US and China
agreed to a truce to lower import taxes on goods being traded between the two countries for 90 days. Under the terms of the agreement,
both countries committed to pausing the imposition of new tariffs and partially rolling back existing duties on select goods, primarily
in the technology, agricultural, and consumer product sectors. Although the agreement marks a major de-escalation of the trade war between
the two countries, there is still a high degree of uncertainty surrounding U.S. tariff policy, how it will be implemented, and how other
countries will react to it. It also remains uncertain whether increased tariffs and trade tensions will create further disruptions and
uncertainties to the international trade and lead to a downturn in the global economy.
As of August 29, 2025, the
United States has permanently eliminated the $800 de minimis threshold that previously allowed low-value shipments to enter the country
duty-free. This change applies to all international shipments, regardless of value, origin, or shipping method. The decision was made
to strengthen trade enforcement and address concerns over illicit trade practices. All imports, including those valued under $800, are
now subject to applicable duties and taxes. These changes increase the complexity of customs processing, slow clearance times, and reduce
the volume of low-value parcels traditionally handled by freight forwarders.
Moreover, increasing trade
protectionism may cause an increase in (i) the cost of goods exported from regions globally, particularly from the Asia-Pacific region,
(ii) the length of time required to transport goods and (iii) the risks associated with exporting goods. Such increases may further reduce
the quantity of goods to be shipped, extend shipping schedules, increase voyage costs, and other associated costs, which could have an
adverse impact on our customers’ business, operating results and financial condition and could thereby affect their ability to make
timely payments to us and their order quantities. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows
and financial condition.
We will continue to actively
monitor the situation and consider strategic adaptation to maintain service levels and profitability.
Revenues. We
generate revenues primarily by providing customized cross-border ocean freight solutions and airfreight solutions to customers that specifically
cater to their requirements and needs in transporting goods into the U.S. Under the service agreements with our customers, we offer
a wide variety of integrated services under our cross-border ocean freight solutions and cross-border airfreight solutions, including
(i) cross-border freight consolidation and forwarding services, (ii) customs clearance services, (iii) warehousing and
distribution services and (iv) U.S. domestic ground transportation services.

operational complexity in maintaining product quality and safety. Successfully expanding our customer base in this new segment will depend
on our ability to manage these risks effectively while maintaining high service standards and compliance with applicable regulations.
Our Ability to Control Costs
Our results of operations
are affected by our ability to control costs including transportation and delivery costs, warehouse service charges, custom declaration
and terminal charges, freight arrangement charges and other overhead cost allocation, which may be subject to factors, including, among
other things, fluctuations in wage rates, fuel prices, toll fees, and leasing costs. Effective cost-control measures have a direct impact
on our financial condition and results of operations. For example, our cross-border freight carrier and U.S. domestic ground transportation
carrier services providers use large quantities of fuel to operate vehicles, and therefore, hence the higher fuel cost incurred by them
may causes our higher fee rates cost charged on us by such the service providers. The availability and price of fuel and third-party
transportation capacity are subject to political, economic, and market factors that are beyond our control. We also incur a significant
amount of costs in relation to transportation and labor. Any unexpected increase in these costs, which is subject to factors beyond our
control, could adversely impact our profitability. We have adopted, and expect to adopt, additional cost control measures. However, the
measures we have adopted or will adopt in the future may not be as effective as expected. If we are not able to effectively control our
costs and adjust the level of fee rates based on operating costs and market conditions, our profitability and cash flow may be adversely
affected.
With the introduction of
our new pharmaceutical and medical product distribution business in fiscal year 2025, our cost structure has become more complex. Unlike
our traditional cross-border logistics services, which are largely variable in nature, the new business requires us to hold inventory,
maintain specialized warehouse conditions, and comply with more stringent product handling standards. These factors may increase fixed
operating costs, including storage, insurance, and quality control expenses. Consequently, our ability to control costs in this new business
segment will depend not only on fuel and labor trends but also on our efficiency in managing inventory turnover and compliance-related
expenses.
We have implemented, and
expect to continue adopting, additional cost-control measures to mitigate these risks. However, such measures may not always be as effective
as anticipated. If we are unable to effectively control our operating costs or adjust our pricing in response to changing market conditions,
our profitability and cash flows may be adversely affected.
Our Ability to Provide High-quality Services
Our results of operations
depend on our ability to maintain and further enhance our service quality. Together with our network of service providers, we provide
integrated cross-border ocean and air freight supply chain solutions and services to our customers. If we or our service providers are
unable to provide express delivery services in a timely, reliable, safe and secure manner, our reputation and customer loyalty could
be negatively affected. In additional, if our customer service personnel fail to satisfy customer needs or respond effectively to customer
complaints, we may lose potential or existing customers and experience a decrease in customer orders, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As we expand into pharmaceutical
and medical product distribution, maintaining high-quality service standards becomes even more critical. This new business line involves
additional operational requirements, such as temperature-controlled storage, specialized handling, and compliance with healthcare product
regulations. Any lapse in these areas could result in regulatory penalties, product spoilage, or loss of customer trust. Compared to
our existing logistics operations, the consequences of service failures in this segment could be more severe, given the sensitive nature
of medical products and the higher expectations of healthcare customers. Ensuring consistent service quality will therefore require enhanced
employee training, strengthened supplier oversight, and continuous monitoring of compliance procedures.
Strategic Acquisitions and Investments
Our results of operations
also depend on our ability to pursue strategic acquisitions and investments in expanding our global footprints, diversifying our service
offerings, and advancing our technologies. We may selectively pursue mergers, acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and partnerships
that we believe are strategic and complementary to our operations and technology. However, we cannot assure you that we will make prudent
decisions at all times. Our ability to successfully execute or effectively operate, integrate, leverage and grow these investments or
strategic partnerships could impact our results of operations and financial conditions.
In response to governmental
directives and recommended safety measures, we have implemented personal safety measures at all of our facilities. However, these measures
may not be sufficient to mitigate the risk of infection by COVID-19. If a significant number of our employees, or third parties performing
key functions, including our chief executive officer and members of our board of directors, become ill, our business may be further adversely
impacted.
The impact of COVID-19 pandemic
on us in the future will depend on future developments which are highly unpredictable and beyond our control, such as the frequency,
duration and severity of the resurgence of COVID-19 and the emergence of new variants, as well as the measures that may be taken by governments
around the world in response to these developments, the impact of the pandemic on the global economy and the measures taken by governments
to stimulate the general economy. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the pandemic will not continue to have an adverse effect on our
business and results of operations in the future, which may be material.
We will continue to actively
monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or
foreign authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, service providers and stockholders.
Uncertainty and Impacts on the Recent U.S.
Tarriff Policies and Regulations
Our results of operations
also depend on our ability to respond with the recent tariff and other restrictions placed on imports. Since February 2025, trade between
the U.S. and China has remained under tight restrictions and elevated trade barriers. While some temporary relief measures and exemptions
were granted, most U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods remain in place, particularly affecting key sectors such as agriculture, automobiles,
industrial materials, and consumer goods. These trade measures have significantly disrupted U.S.-China commerce, reducing exports in
certain categories and forcing companies on both sides to adjust supply chains, pricing, and sourcing strategies. Despite some ongoing
negotiations, the overall trade environment remains challenging and uncertain, with cross-border business continuing to face heightened
costs and operational complexities.
In May 2025, the US and China
agreed to a truce to lower import taxes on goods being traded between the two countries for 90 days. Under the terms of the agreement,
both countries committed to pausing the imposition of new tariffs and partially rolling back existing duties on select goods, primarily
in the technology, agricultural, and consumer product sectors. Although the agreement marks a major de-escalation of the trade war between
the two countries, there is still a high degree of uncertainty surrounding U.S. tariff policy, how it will be implemented, and how other
countries will react to it. It also remains uncertain whether increased tariffs and trade tensions will create further disruptions and
uncertainties to the international trade and lead to a downturn in the global economy.
As of August 29, 2025, the
United States has permanently eliminated the $800 de minimis threshold that previously allowed low-value shipments to enter the country
duty-free. This change applies to all international shipments, regardless of value, origin, or shipping method. The decision was made
to strengthen trade enforcement and address concerns over illicit trade practices. All imports, including those valued under $800, are
now subject to applicable duties and taxes. These changes increase the complexity of customs processing, slow clearance times, and reduce
the volume of low-value parcels traditionally handled by freight forwarders.
Moreover, increasing trade
protectionism may cause an increase in (i) the cost of goods exported from regions globally, particularly from the Asia-Pacific region,
(ii) the length of time required to transport goods and (iii) the risks associated with exporting goods. Such increases may further reduce
the quantity of goods to be shipped, extend shipping schedules, increase voyage costs, and other associated costs, which could have an
adverse impact on our customers’ business, operating results and financial condition and could thereby affect their ability to
make timely payments to us and their order quantities. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results,
cash flows and financial condition.
We will continue to actively
monitor the situation and consider strategic adaptation to maintain service levels and profitability.
