Haoxi Health Technology (HAO) reported its unaudited financial results for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The company recorded a significant increase in total revenue, reaching $23.50 million, a 157% rise from $9.16 million in the same period of 2022.

Gross profit rose by 65% to $1.20 million, while net income increased by 70% to $0.76 million. HAO's growth was driven by an increase in the number of clients served, from 183 to 338, and a higher average revenue per client, primarily from the healthcare sector.

Recent developments include partnerships with Wuhan Yiya Simei Dental Clinic and Jinan Yanling Biotechnology, focusing on delivering comprehensive advertising services on popular social media platforms. However, the company's gross margin decreased due to market competition, leading to higher costs and required customer rebates.

Insights

The company's financial results for the six months ended December 31, 2023, show significant growth in revenue, gross profit and net income. The total revenue rose by 157% to $23.50 million, indicating strong sales performance and market demand. The gross profit increased by 65% to $1.20 million, demonstrating improved efficiency in cost management. However, the gross margin decreased from 7.97% to 5.11%, suggesting increased market competition and higher cost of revenue.

The number of clients almost doubled from 183 to 338 and the average revenue per client increased by $19,468. This highlights the effectiveness of the company's pricing strategy and market reach, especially in the healthcare sector. The decreased average number of click-throughs per client, offset by a higher per-click revenue, reflects the company's focus on more valuable ads, driven by partnerships with platforms like ByteDance.

Investors should note the increase in operational costs, particularly in selling, marketing and administrative expenses. While these are in line with revenue growth, they will need to be closely monitored to ensure they do not disproportionately increase over time.

The strategic partnerships with ByteDance's platforms, including Douyin, Toutiao and Xigua Video, underscore the company's focus on leveraging popular media channels to drive advertising revenue. The recent contracts with Yiya Dental and Yanling Biotechnology indicate an expansion in the healthcare sector, a market known for substantial advertising budgets. This aligns well with the observed increase in revenue per client.

The engagement with ByteDance platforms, renowned for their high user engagement, supports the company's strategy to capture a larger market share. The rebating agreements are a common practice to attract and retain clients but could pressure the profit margins in a competitive market environment.

Investors should consider how these strategic moves might enhance long-term growth and market positioning. The company's ability to maintain its existing client base while attracting new high-value clients will be important for sustained growth.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Revenue

We generate revenue from providing one-stop online marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from mainstream online media platforms, content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimization, to advertisers through the operating entity. Net revenue was $9.16 million and $23.50 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The increase in our revenue is mainly attributable to the increase in the number of clients we served, which increased from 183 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to 338 in the comparative period ended December 31,2023, as well as an increase in the average revenue per client from $50,070 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $69,538 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The higher average revenue per client in the current year is mainly attributable to higher advertisement expenditure by our health care industry clients.

The average revenue per client under our advertisement pricing model consists of two components: 1) the average per unit-of-service price, which is the average price per click-through that we charge our advertiser customers, and 2) the quantity of services, which is actual number of click-throughs with respect to each advertiser. The following table shows the components that impact our revenue and their correlation.

    Six Months Ended
December 31,
 
    2022  2023 
Revenue per click-through ($) a  0.51   0.97 
Average number of click-throughs with respect to each advertiser client b  98,432   71,627 
Average revenue per client ($) c=a*b  50,070   69,538 
Number of clients d  183   338 
Revenue ($) e=c*d  9,162,832   23,503,910 
           

The increase in the revenue per click-through was higher in the current period mainly due to the increasing popularity of ByteDance media platforms, which we mainly collaborated with through ByteDance’s subsidiary, Ocean Engine. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, a growing number of our advertiser clients have chosen to place ads on ByteDance’s media platforms. In addition, the costs we paid to Ocean Engine to acquire user traffic for our clients’ ads were increased, leading to an increase in our service charge.

Cost of revenue

Our cost of revenue consists primarily of the purchase of online traffic from third-party media platforms after deducting rebates, and salaries and benefits for business operation staff. The cost of revenue increased by $13.87 million or 164%, from $8.43 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $22.30 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in cost of revenue was basically in line with the increase in revenue.

Gross profit and gross margin

Our gross profit increased by $0.47 million, from $0.73 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $1.20 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (“profit margin”) was 5.11% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, lower than 7.97% for the six months ended December 31, 2022, mainly due to market competition. The Company needed to provide rebates to some customers, in order to maintain and expand the customer base.

Selling and marketing expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of payroll costs and office related expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 44% from $14,312 in the six months ended December 31,2022 to $20,564 in the six months ended December 31, 2023. It was mainly due to an increase in bonuses paid to our sales staff, which were calculated based on sales performance. 

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses mainly consist of salaries and bonuses, as well as administrative related expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $132,326, or 66%, from $199,284 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $331,610 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in salary and bonuses of the management team and professional fees in connection with our IPO.

Research and development expenses

Our R&D expenses mainly consist of salaries and benefits of our R&D staff developing Bidding Compass and our online ads bidding analysis software. R&D expenses increased by $7,000, or 29%, from $23,842 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $30,842 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. It was mainly attributable to the increase in salaries of R&D staff.

Net (loss)/income

As a result of the foregoing, we had net income of $0.45 million and $0.76 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
