It is learned that recently, Xinghui Shares, the parent company of the cross-border big seller Zebao Technology, has updated the previously published "2022 Semi-annual Report". The content shows that during the reporting period, Xinghui Shares achieved a total revenue of 1.256 billion yuan , a decrease of 48.26% compared with the same period last year ; and achieved a net profit attributable to the parent of -17.6 million yuan , a year-on-year decrease of 116.85% .
▲ The picture comes from Xinghui Co., Ltd.'s "2022 Semi-annual Report" This year, due to various factors, the global economy has slowed down, consumer power has declined, and the cross-border e-commerce industry has experienced a significant decline. Judging from the semi-annual reports released by many cross-border sellers, their financial report data are not optimistic. In addition, the dispute between Xinghui Co., Ltd. and Zebao Technology over the gambling agreement was a hot topic before, so the content of Xinghui's report is not surprising.
Amazon's business has dropped by 80%! The impact of account suspension continues From the perspective of product business proportion, the sales of core products that Zebao Technology relies on have declined significantly across the board, whether it is power supplies, Bluetooth audio, small household appliances or computer and mobile phone peripherals , which have decreased by 50%~83% year-on-year .
In terms of the proportion of channel business, Zebao has been continuously reducing its reliance on a single platform (especially Amazon) since the account suspension incident last year. During the reporting period, the sales amount of the Amazon channel was 315 million yuan, and the proportion of operating income decreased from 87% in the same period last year to about 49% , a year-on-year decrease of 81.17% ! ▲ The picture comes from Xinghui Co., Ltd.'s "2022 Semi-annual Report" At the same time, Zebao is also vigorously promoting the " multi-platform, multi-channel" business strategy, and began to strengthen the business of its own platform and other third-party platforms . In the first half of the year, the revenue share of these two channels increased by about 30% and 325% respectively! Zebao also gave a corresponding explanation for the significant changes in the main financial data: due to the impact of Amazon's account suspension, its operating income, operating costs, sales and administrative expenses have all dropped significantly. Although the appreciation of the US dollar has generated considerable exchange gains, it still cannot make up for the loss in revenue. ▲ The picture comes from Tencent’s stock selection It can be seen that even though more than a year has passed since the account ban, its impact has not completely subsided. In addition to Zebao Technology, another big seller has also been hit hard by Amazon's account ban and was recently even sued for defaulting on loans. Youkeshu’s loans were overdue and many of its properties were seized It is learned that on October 11, Tianze Information, the parent company of Youkeshu, issued an "Announcement on the Progress of Overdue Bank Loans and Litigation Involving the Company" . The content shows that due to the failure to repay the short-term working capital loan provided by Pudong Development Bank to the company on time, the Nanjing Branch of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank filed a lawsuit against the company.
▲ The picture comes from Tianze Information Announcement It is reported that in March 2020, Tianze Information signed a contract with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank to borrow 60 million yuan from it for operation, with a repayment period of March 6, 2021. To ensure the fulfillment of the contract, Tianze's subsidiary TIZA Co., Ltd. pledged 1.17 billion yen as a deposit to guarantee the debt . Affected by various factors, Tianze Information failed to repay the loan on time. On June 29, 2022, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank completed the settlement of the deposit, but due to the depreciation of the Japanese yen, the above deposit was not enough to repay the entire loan principal after the settlement . To date, Tianze still owes the bank a principal of 2.151 million yuan and interest, penalty interest, and compound interest of 5.259 million yuan . In addition, according to the civil ruling and notice issued by the Nanjing Intermediate People's Court, the court ruled to seal up the following two properties of the company : the real estate located at No. *, Yunlongshan Road, Jianye District, Nanjing; and the real estate located at No. *, West Third Ring Road, High-tech Industrial Development Zone, Zhengzhou. Youkeshu and Zebao used to be top sellers with Amazon as the core. The former was a general seller, while the latter was famous for its high-quality products. However, they both suffered huge losses due to their "betting" operations, and the road to transformation was difficult and tortuous. Nowadays, more and more platform sellers begin to pay attention to the construction of their own platforms, and brand overseas expansion has become a hot topic in the cross-border circle.
