First Half 2025 Financial Results

Jowell Global Ltd. (the “Company”, “us”, “our”, or “we”) announced its unaudited first half of 2025 financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Total Revenues

Total revenues for the first half of 2025 were $76.2 million, representing a decrease of 11.1% from $85.7 million in the same period of 2024. Our weighted average unit price was $2.59 per unit for the first half of 2025, which represented a decrease of 49.9% as compared to $5.16 per unit for the same period of 2024.

Our health and nutritional supplements revenue for the first half of 2025 increased by about $42.2 million, or 245.4%, as compared to the same period of 2024. The increase in health and nutritional supplements revenue was mainly due to the increase in sales of affordable health and nutritional supplements. We have stepped up our promotions on these items in the first half of 2025 and offered more promotional discounts.

Our cosmetic products and household products revenue for the first half of 2025 decreased by about $7.2 million(or 36.4%) and $44.2 million (or 91.3%), respectively, as compared to the same period of 2024. The decrease were mainly due to the adjustment of the Company’s business strategy to cut the sales and marketing of cosmetic and household products with low profits and high promotion costs, and to increase the sales of health and nutritional supplements with higher gross margins and more conducive to promotion, in other words, to reduce the customers discretionary spending items of premium brands and promote their preferred low cost, low price and necessity products.

* YOY—year over year

Total cost and operating expenses were $77.7 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease of 13.3% from $89.6 million in the same period of 2024.

Costs of revenues were<br> $69.9 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease of 17.6% from $84.8 million in the same period of 2024, which including<br> a decrease of $43.2 million in household products and $9.3 million in cosmetic products and partially offset by an increase of $36.3<br> million in health and nutritional supplements.
Cost of revenues of health<br> and nutritional supplements for the first half 2025 increased about 213.9% as compared to the same period of 2024. The increase was<br> primarily due to a 245.4% increase in products sales. The increase in products for our health and nutritional supplements is mainly<br> because we developed and sold a lot of affordable health and nutritional supplements products to replace the original high-price<br> health and nutritional supplements products in 2024.

The decrease in the cost<br> of cosmetic products and household products was attributable to a decrease in the weighted average unit cost and a decrease in sales<br> volume. The weighted average unit cost of cosmetic products decreased from $2.47 in the first half of 2024 to $1.7 in the first half<br> of 2025, and weighted average unit cost of household products decreased from $8.11 in the first half of 2024 to $1.13 in the first<br> half of 2025, both decreases mainly due to reduced customers discretionary spending on premium brands and their preference to low<br> cost, low price and necessity products during the first half of 2025, as compared to the same period of 2024. The household products<br> sales volume declined the most, with a decrease of 46.9% during the first half of 2025, comparing to the same period of 2024.
Fulfillment expenses primarily<br> consist of costs related to expenses paid for order preparing, packaging, outbound freight, and physical storage. Fulfillment expenses<br> were $4.1 million in the first half of 2025, an increase of 391.3% from $0.8 million in the same period of 2024. Fulfillment expenses<br> as a percentage of total revenues were 5.4% in the first half of 2025, up from 1.0% in the first half of 2024. The significant increase<br> in fulfillment costs is attributed to the significant increase in the volume of express delivery of packages to customers.
--- ---
Marketing expenses primarily<br> consist of targeted online advertising, and payroll and related expenses for personnel engaged in marketing and selling activities.<br> Marketing expenses were $2.3 million in the first half of 2025, a decrease of 18.0% from $2.8 million in the same period of 2024.<br> The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our marketing and promotion activities. Marketing expense as percentage of total<br> revenues was 3.0% in the first half of 2025, down from 3.2% in the same period of 2024.
--- ---
General and administrative expenses mainly consist of payroll, depreciation,<br>office supplies and upkeep. General and administration expenses were $1.4 million in the first half of 2025, an increase of 15.2% from<br>$1.2 million in the same period of 2024. General and administration expenses as percentage of total revenues was 1.8% in the first half<br>of 2025, up from 1.4% in the same period of 2024.
--- ---

Operating Loss


Operating loss was $1.6 million for the first half of 2025, a decrease of 60.6% compared with the operating loss of $4.0 million in the same period of 2024, which was mainly due to the decrease of marketing expenses and cost of revenues.


Net Loss


Net loss was $1.3 million, a decrease of 66.4% compared with net loss of $3.8 million in the same period of 2024, which was mainly due to the factors mentioned above.

Loss per Share

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). Each of the Company’s Preferred Share has voting rights equal to two Ordinary Shares of the Company and each Preferred Share is convertible into one Ordinary Share at any time. Except for voting rights and conversion rights, the Ordinary Shares and the Preferred Shares rank pari passu with one another and have the same rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions. For the first half ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, the Company had no potential ordinary shares outstanding that could potentially dilute EPS in the future.

Cash and Cash Equivalents


For the first half of 2025, the Company reported a net loss of $1.3 million and operating cash inflow of $4.1 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $35.3 million. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are sales revenues. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash of approximately $6.5 million, held by its variable interest entity (VIE) Shanghai Juhao Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Juhao”) with banks and financial institutions inside China as the Company conducts its operations primarily through its consolidated VIE in China; the Company’s working capital as of June 30, 2025 was $8.7 million. In addition, the Company’s Form F-3 registration statement was declared effective on August 31, 2022 which was renewed and declared effective in September 2025, and the Company may also seek equity financing from outside investors if necessary.

Based on the latest business plan of the Company, Shanghai Juhao has reduced its promotion efforts and marketing expenditures since the second half of 2023, which reduced the cash used in operating activities. Management believes that the above-mentioned factors, including cash on hand of approximately $6.5 million, will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to meet its future liquidity and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.
