Financial Highlights for the Fiscal Year 2022
Recent Business Highlights
Financial Results for the Fiscal Year 2022
Total revenues for the fiscal year 2022 were approximately $79.7 million, up 468% from $14.0 million for the fiscal year 2021. This was primarily due to the substantial growth of ZCITY registered users, in turn enhancing platform traffic and its revenue streams including product revenue, loyalty program revenue, transaction revenue and member subscription revenue.
Gross profit for the fiscal year 2022 was approximately $0.5 million, a 240% improvement year-on-year from approximately $0.1 million for the fiscal year 2021. This increase was primarily due to increased product, loyalty and transaction revenue as result of registered user and active user growth.
Net loss was approximately $11.7 million for the fiscal year 2022 compared to $7.9 million for the fiscal year 2021.
Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $1.8 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to approximately $2.8 million as of June 30, 2021.
Subsequent to the quarter end, TGI completed an upsized IPO raising net proceeds of approximately $8.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses. Additionally, the Company received drawdowns of approximately $2.7 million under its existing Tophill Loan Agreement 2 whereby upon the IPO, all principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding was automatically converted into shares of TGL common stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the IPO price. With its strengthened balance sheet, management believes there is sufficient runway to fund its strategic growth plans and new product developments over the next year and beyond.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2023
We believe that the outlook for economic growth in the South-East Asian region is positive as the region recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company's plans for regional expansion and new product development, including Tazte, remain on track.
