Insights

Financial Analyst

The financial results reveal a complex transition period for TDH Holdings. While reporting a net income of $1.32 million (EPS of $0.13), this profit primarily stems from investment gains of $2.76 million rather than core operations. The company's pivot from restaurants to commercial real estate has resulted in minimal revenue of just $0.10 million and an operating loss of $1.08 million.

Concerning signs include the $0.36 million goodwill impairment from the new real estate business and continued cash burn, with operating activities consuming $2.34 million. The $12.91 million cash position and $12.49 million in liquid investments provide a runway, but successful execution in commercial real estate will be important for long-term sustainability.

Real Estate Analyst

The company's abrupt transition to commercial real estate ownership and management raises significant concerns. With only two months of operations in this new sector, the $0.10 million revenue and 35.26% gross margin provide insufficient data to evaluate business viability. The immediate goodwill impairment suggests early challenges in execution.

The Chinese commercial real estate market faces significant headwinds, making this pivot particularly risky. Without details on property types, locations, or occupancy rates, investors cannot properly assess the potential for sustainable growth. The lack of established track record in real estate management adds another layer of risk to this strategic shift.

pp: percentage points

• Revenues from continuing operations increased by 13,399.98% to $0.10 million for the first half of 2024. We discontinued our restaurant business in the second quarter of 2024 and began to focus on growing our commercial real estate business line. The main reason for discontinuing our restaurant business was due to the recurring loss from our restaurant business since 2023. We believe that discontinuing our restaurant business will provide us with the opportunity to shift our focus and resources toward expanding and improving our newly added commercial real estate business.
  
  
• Gross profit was $ 0.04 million for the first half of 2024, compared to gross loss of $226 for the same period of the prior year.
  
  
• Operating loss was $1.08 million for the first half of 2024, compared to operating loss of $0.66 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to the disposal of the Company's restaurant business line in the second quarter of 2024, as the Company has begun to focus on its commercial real estate business and efforts to control operating costs going forward.
  
  
• Net income was $1.32 million, or earnings per share of $0.13, for the first half of 2024, compared to net income of $0.06 million, or income per share of $0.01, for the same period of the prior year.

First Half 2024 Financial Results

Revenues from continuing operations

In June 2024, we discontinued our restaurant business and started to focus on owing, operating and managing commercial real estate properties going forward. Since the commercial real estate business is a newly added business line, revenue from our continuing business only amounted to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. because only two months of revenue was reported. We expect our revenue from the commercial real estate business will continue to grow in the near future.

Cost of revenues from continuing operations

In line with our newly added commercial real estate rental business, we reported cost of revenues from continuing operations of $0.07 million. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues was 64.74% for the first half of 2024, compared to 129.50% for the same period of the prior year.

Gross profit (loss) and gross profit (loss) margin from continuing operations

Gross profit from continuing operations was $0.04 million for the first half of 2024, compared to gross loss of $226 for the same period of the prior year. The increase in gross profit was due to increased sales volume of our commercial real estate business. Gross profit margin was 35.26% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 29.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was due to higher gross profit margin for our commercial real estate business.

Operating expense from continuing operations

Operating expense consists of selling expense and general and administrative expense.

General and administrative expense increase by $0.09 million, or 14.53%, to $0.76 million for the first half of 2024 from $0.66 million for the same period of the prior year.

In connection with our commencement of the commercial real estate business, we recognized $0.36 million of goodwill as of the commencement date. However, as a result of our commercial real estate business losses in the first half 2024, goodwill of $0.36 million has been fully impaired for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

As a result, total operating expenses increased by $0.46 million, or 68.95%, to $1.12 million for the first half of 2024 from $0.66 million for the same period of the prior year.

Operating loss from continuing operations

Loss from operations was $1.08 million for the first half of 2024, compared to $0.66 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase in continuing operating loss was mainly due to increased general and administrative expense and the recognition of impairment losses on goodwill in the first half of 2024.

Other income, net

Total net other income increased by approximately $1.84 million or 205.88%, from $0.89 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, to $2.74 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, which is primarily attributable to an increase in investment income. We invested our available cash on hand in equity securities of certain publicly listed companies through various open market transactions. Our investments in marketable securities are accounted for pursuant to ASC 321 and reported at their readily determinable fair value as quoted by market exchanges in the consolidated balance sheets with change in fair value recognized in earnings. During the first half of 2024, the investments generated a total of $2.76 million net returns as compared to $0.92 million for the same period of 2023.

Loss from discontinued operations

We disposed of our restaurant business in June 2024 and started our new commercial real estate business line. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, total revenues from our restaurant business decreased by approximately $0.3 million, or 18.04%, to $1.27 million from $1.55 million as compared with the same period of the prior year. Our cost of revenues, decreased by approximately $0.2 million or 16.8%, to $0.89 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $1.07 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Although we disposed of our restaurant business in first half of 2024, our operating expenses and other overhead costs associated with our restaurant business were still high. As a result of the above, we reported loss from discontinued operations of our restaurant business of $444,750 and $220,958 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net income attributable to the Company and earnings per share
