However, the company faced a gross loss of RMB 6.5 million (US$ 1.0 million) compared to a gross profit of RMB 0.9 million (US$ 0.1 million) in 2020, mainly due to strategic inventory sales at reduced prices. Net loss decreased to RMB 70.8 million (US$ 10.9 million), down from RMB 111.5 million (US$ 15.8 million) in 2020, aided by a reduction in bad debt expense.

JINJIANG, China, Sept. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Antelope Enterprise Holdings Limited (NASDAQ Capital Market: AEHL) ("Antelope Enterprise" or the "Company"), a leading Chinese manufacturer of ceramic tiles used for exterior siding and for interior flooring and design in residential and commercial buildings, today announced its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

First Half 2021 Summary

  • Revenue was RMB 50.1 million (US$ 7.7 million) as compared to RMB 39.8 million (US$ 5.6 million) for the same period of 2020.
  • Gross loss was RMB 6.5 million (US$ 1.0 million) as compared to gross profit of RMB 0.9 million (US$ 0.1 million) for the same period of 2020.
  • Operating results were affected by bad debt expense of RMB 49.8 million (US$ 7.7 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to bad debt expense of RMB 101.8 million (US$ 14.4 million) for the same period of 2020.
  • Net loss was RMB 70.8 million (US$ 10.9 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to a net loss of RMB 111.5 million (US$ 15.8 million) for the same period of 2020.
  • Loss per share both on a basic and fully diluted basis was RMB 16.24 (US$ 2.51) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to a loss per share on a basic and fully diluted basis of RMB 40.82 (US$ 5.77) for the six months ended June 30, 2020, with the latter figures retroactively presented for the 3:1 reverse stock split effective September 3, 2020.

Ms. Meishuang Huang, Chief Executive Officer of Antelope Enterprise, commented, "For the first half of 2021, we experienced challenging market conditions due to the slowdown of the real estate sector in China which was still being impacted by the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our sustained marketing efforts during this period enabled us to realize an 11% increase in sales volume in the first half of fiscal 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020. We made a strategic decision to sell products already in inventory at available market prices that fell below our costs of production which hindered our profitability for the first half of 2021. However, this will help us to shift the momentum of the company towards future growth."

"For the first half of 2021, we utilized production facilities capable of producing 1.1 million square meters of ceramic tiles per year out of effective annual production capacity of 51.6 million square meters of ceramic tiles. We took production offline at our Hengdali facility for the first half of 2021, exempting what we lease to a third party, since we determined that we had ample inventory available to work through our sales channels."

"While we are committed to our core business, we are also focused upon diversifying our business lines to fuel our growth. We are encouraged that Antelope Chengdu, one of our new subsidiaries in the financial technology sector, contributed a significant level of revenues to our financial performance for the first half of 2021."

"We believe that our building materials sector will continue to benefit from the importance of the real estate sector to the Chinese economy. We believe that the Chinese government's renewed efforts to promote affordable housing, projected growth in lower Tier cities and the upgrading of existing housing stock are potential catalysts that could benefit our business," concluded Ms. Huang.

Fiscal Six Months Results Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was RMB 50.1 million (US$ 7.7 million), a 25.9% increase from RMB 39.8 million (US$ 5.6 million) for the same period of 2020. The increase in revenue was due to (1) a 6.0% increase in the sale of ceramic tiles to $42.2 million (US$ 6.5 million) for the six months of 2021 as compared to RMB 39.8 million (US$ 5.6 million) for the same period of 2020, and (2) RMB 7.9 million (US$ 1.2 million) in software rights revenue from Antelope Chengdu. The increase in the sales of ceramic tiles was due to an 11.1% increase in our sales volume to 2.0 million square meters of ceramic tiles for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 1.8 million square meters of ceramic tiles for the same period of 2020, which was partially offset by an 8.6% decrease in our average selling price to RMB 20.6 (US$ 3.20) from RMB 22.6 (US$ 3.19) for the same period of 2020.

Gross loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was RMB 6.5 million (US$ 1.0 million), as compared to gross profit of RMB 0.9 million (US$ 0.1 million) for the same period of 2020. The gross loss margin was 13.0% as compared to a gross profit margin 2.4% for the same period of 2020. The decrease in gross profit margin was due to a gross loss margin from our porcelain ceramic tiles, which comprised 85.4% of our total ceramic tile revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was RMB 7.2 million ($1.1 million), compared to the RMB 9.8 million ($1.4 million) for the comparable period of 2020. Other income primarily consists of rental income that the Company received by leasing out one of its production lines from its Hengdali facility pursuant to an eight-year lease contract. In addition, we realized RMB 2.4 million (US$ 0.3 million) in technology consulting income from our newly incorporated subsidiary, Chengdu Future, during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Since our technology consulting businesses had just launched and its income was fairly modest for this year-ago period, it was included in this reporting line item for the year-ago period.

Selling and distribution expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were RMB 3.2 million (US$ 0.5 million), a decrease from RMB 5.2 million (US$ 0.7 million) for the comparable period of 2020. The decrease in selling and distribution expenses was primarily due to a decrease in advertising expenses of RMB 1.3 million, a decrease in payroll expense of RMB 0.6 million and a decrease in travel expenses of RMB 0.01 million.

Administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were RMB 17.2 million (US$ 2.7 million), as compared to RMB 14.7 million (US$ 2.1 million), for the same period of 2020. The increase in administrative expenses was mainly due to an increase in consulting fees of RMB 4.8 million, which was partially offset by the following: a decrease in payroll expense of RMB 0.6 million, a decrease in directors and shareholders meeting expenses of RMB 0.6 million, a decrease in printing expenses of RMB 0.2 million, a decrease in valuation fees of RMB 0.2 million, a decrease in audit fees of RMB 0.1 million and a decrease in other administrative expenses of RMB 0.6 million.

Bad debt expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was RMB 49.8 million (US$ 7.7 million), as compared to bad debt expense of RMB 101.8 million (US$ 14.4 million) for the same period of 2020. We recognize a loss allowance for expected credit loss on our financial assets, primarily on trade receivables, which are subject to impairment under IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. We believe that we have undertaken appropriate measures to resolve our bad debt expense. We will continue to review each of our customers for credit quality as well as assiduously test their accounts receivables balances in each upcoming fiscal period. 

Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were RMB 77,000 (US$ 12,000), as compared to RMB nil (US$ nil) for the same period of 2020. The increase in other expenses was mainly due to an exchange rate loss and an expense related to a non-refundable rent deposit attributable to Antelope Chengdu due to the early termination of a lease.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was RMB 70.8 million (US$ 10.9 million), as compared to a net loss of RMB 111.5 million (US$ 15.8 million) for the same period of 2020. The decrease in net loss was mainly due to the decrease in bad debt expense, which was partially offset by an increase in gross loss and an increase in administrative expenses.

Loss per basic share and fully diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were RMB 16.24 (US$ 2.51), as compared to loss per basic and fully diluted share of RMB 40.82 (US$ 5.77) for the same period of 2020, with the latter figures retroactively presented for the 3:1 reverse stock split effective on September 3, 2020.

Statements of Selected Financial Position Items for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

  • Cash and bank balances were RMB 34.0 million (US$ 5.3 million) as of June 30, 2021, compared with RMB 12.3 million (US$ 1.9 million) as of December 31, 2020.
  • Inventory turnover was 128 days as of June 30, 2021, as compared to 190 days as of December 31, 2020. The decrease in inventory turnover days was primarily due to the cessation of production at our Hengdali facility during the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to our plan to primarily utilize current inventory in stock. We believe that the value of our current inventories is realizable.
  • Trade receivables turnover, net of value added tax, was 253 days as of June 30, 2021, as compared with 242 days as of December 31, 2020. The increase in trade receivables turnover was primarily due to the slow collection of our trade receivables as a result of tight cash flow as reported by our customers due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Trade payables turnover, net of value added tax, was 17 days as of June 30, 2021 as compared with 22 days as of December 31, 2020. The average turnover days was within the normal credit period of one to four months granted by our suppliers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow used in operating activities was RMB 3.7 million (US$ 0.6 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to cash generated from operating activities of RMB 1.3 million (US$ 0.2 million) in the same period of 2020. The increase of cash outflow was mainly due to a decrease in operating cash inflow before working capital changes of RMB 12.1 million, a decrease in cash inflow of trade receivables of RMB 47.1 million and an increase in cash outflow of other receivables and prepayments of RMB 1.5 million, which was partly offset by a decrease in cash outflow of trade payables of RMB 10.0 million and an increase in cash inflow from inventories of RMB 46.0 million.

Cash flow used in investing activities was RMB 129,000 (US$ 20,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to cash flow generated from investing activities of RMB 2.8 million (US$ 0.4 million) for the same period of 2020. The decrease in cash inflow during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was mainly due to the release of restricted cash of RMB 2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020.  

Cash flow generated from financing activities was RMB 25.4 million (US$ 3.9 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to cash flow used in financing activities of RMB 1.3 million (US$ 0.2 million) in the same period of 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated cash inflow from the issuance of share capital of RMB 30.0 million (US$ 4.6 million) and warrants exercised of RMB 10.4 million (US$ 1.6 million), which was partially offset by the payment of lease liabilities of RMB 15.0 million (US$ 2.3 million). For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we generated cash inflow from the issuance of share capital of RMB 8.1 million and received an advance from related parties of RMB 7.8 million, which was partially offset by the payment of lease liabilities of RMB 14.6 million.

Plant Capacity and Capital Expenditures Update

We utilized plant capacity capable of producing 1.1 million square meters of ceramic tiles for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, when we utilized production facilities capable of producing 2.6 million square meters. As of June 30, 2021, we had twelve production lines available for production, only one of which was in use as of June 30, 2021. Our reduced production utilization during the current period was primarily attributable to the continued slowdown of the real estate industry in China which was still being impacted by the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Our Hengda facility has an annual production capacity of 22.8 million square meters of ceramic tiles. The Company utilized production capacity at our Hengda facility capable of producing 1.1 million square meters of ceramic tiles for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Our Hengdali facility has an annual production capacity of 28.8 million square meters (which excludes our leasing out 10 million square meters of production capacity to a third party). We utilized no production capacity at our Hengdali facility for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to our having utilized current inventory in stock.

Our total annual production capacity is 51.6 million square meters of ceramic tiles and we intend to bring our unused production capacity online as customer demand dictates and when there are signs of improvement in China's real estate and construction sectors.

We review the level of capital expenditures throughout the year and make adjustments subject to market conditions. Although business conditions are subject to change, we anticipate a modest level of capital expenditures for the remainder of 2021 other than those associated with minimal upgrades, small repairs and the maintenance of equipment.

Business Outlook

For the first half of 2021, the Company's operating results were impacted by the continued slowdown of China's real estate sector which was still being impacted by the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we realized a 6.0% period-over-period increase in revenue from sales of ceramic tiles, we made a strategic decision to sell products already in inventory at available market prices that fell below our costs of production which resulted in a gross loss. However, the generation of RMB 7.9 million (US$ 1.2 million) in revenue from one of our new subsidiaries in the financial technology sector enabled us to realize a 26.9% increase in total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020.

Looking forward, China's real estate sector continues to be a vital component of China's economic growth as the sector and its impact on other business activities is estimated to comprise 25% of China's GDP. However, certain factors could potentially limit the growth of the real estate sector. For example, in order to stem real estate speculation and tighten credit, the Chinese government has outlined measures placing a ceiling on debt relative to property developers' cash flows, assets and capital levels. The effect of such credit tightening measures on the property developer sector could reduce land purchases and real estate development.

In addition, as it has in the past, the central government could impose lending curbs such as constraints on mortgage lending and restrictions on the number of homes that families can buy. Further, certain municipalities have halted land auctions in order to cool what have been excessive price bidding at land auctions. We anticipate that these trends could potentially limit new project development which could make the business conditions for the construction and building materials sectors challenging.

We believe that the real estate and construction sectors will continue to grow in the long-term which is of key importance to the building materials sector, and that urbanization continues to be a key driver for construction activity. In addition, the Chinese government has announced that it intends to promote the construction of one million affordable housing units in 2021. This, along with the upgrading of neglected housing stock and the renovation of existing homes, could lead to a higher demand for building materials.

We believe that the demand for our products will mostly come from Tier 3 and lower-tier cities as well as coastal cities over the next few years. However, we will also market our products to Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities as opportunities arise, and we will be increasing our efforts to secure customers in the larger Southeast Asia market. We remain focused on diversifying our operations to fuel our growth as a new subsidiary in the financial technology sector contributed a significant level of revenue to our financial performance in the first half of 2021.

This business outlook reflects the Company's current and preliminary views and is based on the information currently available to us, which are subject to change, and is subject to risks and uncertainties, as well as risks and uncertainties identified in the Company's public filings.
