BrilliA Announces Six-month Earnings of $0.06 per Share and a 17% Revenue Increase for the Six Months Ended September 30, 2024
SINGAPORE, March 21, 2025 -- BrilliA Inc (NYSE
American: BRIA) (“BRIA” or “the Company”), a leading one-stop service cross-border solution provider
for ladies’ intimate apparel brands, today announced that, for the six-month ended September 30, 2024, the Company had revenue of $27,423,693,
a 17% improvement compared with revenue of $23,483,537 for the same period in 2023.
The
Company reported revenue of $27.4 million, representing a 17% increase compared to $23.5 million in the same period of 2023. Net income
for the six months ended September 30, 2024, was $1.13 million, or $0.06
per share, reflecting a negligible change from $1.13 million, or $0.06 per share, in the prior-year period.
Revenue increased by
17%, driven primarily by a 38% rise in export sales to North America, contributing approximately $6.5 million. This was partially offset
by a 56% decline in export sales to Europe, amounting to approximately $3.1 million.
The Company’s gross
profit margin improved to 15.4% from 14.8%in the prior year period.
Operating expenses increased
by approximately 27%, or $0.6 million, primarily due to a 56% rise in employee benefit expenses ($0.56 million) and a 24% increase in
other expenses ($0.20 million), which included travel, entertainment, license fees, and taxes.
As a result of the above-mentioned
factors, the Company’s net income for the six months ended September 30, 2024, showed a slight increase to $1,132,224, compared
with $1,131,819 in the prior-year period. Cash and cash equivalents as at September 30, 2024, were about $5.9 million compared with approximately
$6.4 million as at March 31, 2024. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended September 30, 2024, was about $0.20
million, compared with about $0.68 million in the same period a year earlier. Total non-current liabilities at September 30, 2024, were
about $1.71 million, compared with zero in the corresponding period in 2023.
“We are quite excited
by our financial performance in the first six months ended September 30 2024, especially our 38% growth in sales to North America,”
said BrilliA chief executive Kendrew Hartanto. “We were also successful in achieving an improvement
in our gross profit margin, which, along with our 17% improvement in revenue, contributed to another profitable period for our Company.
“Going
forward, we expect North American sales to remain strong, and for our European intimate apparel sales to be boosted by our recently signed
cooperation framework with the French luxury lingerie brand, Maison Lejaby.
“We
also expect our own DIANA lingerie brand to begin making significant contributions to overall revenue in Indonesia, Singapore,
and other ASEAN countries later this year.”
