Fiscal Year 2020 Financial Results

 

Revenue

 

Revenue decreased by 4.4% year-over-year to $5.02 million for fiscal year 2020 from $5.25 million for fiscal year 2019. The decrease in our revenue was mainly attributable to decreased revenue from our overseas study consulting services in 2020 as compared to 2019. The decrease was also due to decreased revenue from technological consulting services when the number of smart campus related projects decreased, offset by increased revenue from jointly-managed academic programs when number of enrolled students increased by 22.1%.

Revenue from Sino-foreign jointly managed academic programs increased by $0.29 million, or 11.6%, to $2.77 million for fiscal year 2020, from $2.48 million for fiscal year 2019. This increase was primarily attributed to an increase in the number of students by 495 or 22.1%, from 2,236 students for the year ended December 31, 2019 to 2,731 students for the year ended December 31, 2020, which resulted in an increase of $0.53 million in revenue. The increase in the number of students was mainly attributed to better recruitment by Fuzhou Melbourne Polytechnic (“FMP”). The increase was partially offset by the changes in average tuition fees collected from $1,111 per student in 2019 to $1,015 per student in 2020, which resulted in a decrease of $0.24 million in revenue. The decrease in average tuition fee was mainly caused by change in student mix enrolled in different academic programs with the universities/ colleges.

 

Revenue from providing smart campus related technological consulting service and technical support services for other entities decreased by $0.24 million, or 10.6%, to $1.99 million for fiscal year 2020, from $2.23 million for fiscal year 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic caused the temporary closure of the Chinese universities/ colleges until reopening in May 2020. As a result, we were unable to promote our technological consulting services for smart campus solutions to Chinese universities and colleges on a timely basis, and the total number of smart campus related projects we undertook and executed in 2020 decreased by approximately 60% from 35 projected executed in 2019 to only 14 projects executed in 2020.

 

Revenue from overseas study consulting services decreased by $0.40 million, or 75.4%, to $0.13 million for fiscal year 2020, from $0.53 million for fiscal year 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2020, our service contract with Beijing Foreign Studies University (“BFSU”) assisted 11 students for Russia language training and 22 students for German language training. We recognized $0.13 million in revenue when our performance obligations under the service contract were satisfied. The decrease in revenue from overseas study consulting services was mainly attributed to the decrease in the number of students subscribed to our overseas study consulting services from 56 in 2019 to 33 in 2020, which is mainly due to the impact of the travel restrictions related to COVID-19. As a result, the number of students interested in seeking overseas education decreased significantly.

 

Revenue from tailored job readiness training services was $0.08 million for fiscal year 2020, compared to nil for fiscal year 2019. In late 2019, we started to provide tailored job readiness training services to students from the appropriate partner schools so that such students would be better equipped to serve the employer at their respective job positions. Because this line of business was newly added, the revenue generated from this line of business was immaterial in 2019.

 

Revenue from textbooks and course material sales increased by $0.04 million, or 272.4%, to $0.05 million for fiscal year 2020, from $0.01 million for fiscal year 2019 when number of students enrolled under our Sino-foreign jointly managed education programs increased by 22.1% from fiscal year 2019.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenue decreased by $1.20 million, or 35.8%, to $2.16 million for fiscal year 2020, from $3.36 million for fiscal year 2019, primarily due to the decrease in salary, welfare and insurance costs of $914,321, or 60.6%, for foreigner teachers in Sino-foreign jointly managed academic programs. Due to travel bans or restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, certain foreigner teachers were unable to enter into China and we used more Chinese teachers to provide online teaching services to students in the first half of 2020. Therefore, our costs associated with Sino-foreign jointly managed academic programs decreased. In addition, our costs associated with technology consulting services for smart campus related projects decreased by $.017 million or 11.0%, the decrease was due to decreased hardware costs associated with the smart campus projects in 2020 when the number of smart campus projects decreased by about 60% and more software customization services rather than hardware installation services were performed by us. Also, costs associated with overseas study consulting services decreased by $0.18 million or 67.6%, due to a decrease in the number of students for our one-on-one study abroad consulting services as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and accordingly we hired fewer qualified teachers to provide one-on-one tutoring to the students and reduced the office space lease to save costs.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit increased by $0.97 million, or 51.2%, to $2.87 million for fiscal year 2020, from $1.90 million for fiscal year 2019, while gross profit margin increased by 21.0%, to 57.1% for fiscal year 2020 from 36.1% for fiscal year 2019. The increase in our gross profit was primarily due to decreased costs associated with Sino-foreign Jointly Managed Academic Programs by 60.6% when salary, welfare and insurance costs paid to foreign teachers decreased. In addition, our smart campus related technological consulting services require both hardware and software application. In 2020, as we executed more projects with software customization rather than hardware installation, our costs associated with undertaking these projects decreased accordingly and as a result, our gross profit and gross margin associated with smart campus projects increased.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Selling expenses decreased by $0.36 million, or 61.3%, to $0.23 million for fiscal year 2020, from $0.59 million for fiscal year 2019. The decrease in selling expenses was primarily attributable to the decrease in the rental expenses by $0.11 million when we relocated to a smaller office space, a decrease in business travelling expenses by $0.03 million, a decrease in advertising expenses by $0.03 million and a decrease in salary and employee welfare benefit expenses paid to sales and marketing personnel by $0.20 million, resulting from cutting down our sales and marketing force due to COVID-19 outbreak.

 

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.42 million, or 53.2%, to $1.20 million for fiscal year 2020, from $0.78 million for fiscal year 2019, primarily due to an increase in professional service fees of $0.25 million in connection with the preparation of our initial public offering, an increase in investor relation expenses of $0.10 million and an increase in director and officer insurance expenses of $0.06 million.

Interest Income

 

Interest income increased by $95,137 or 1,554.5%, to $101,257 for fiscal year 2020, from $6,120 for fiscal year 2019. In connection with the Company’s technological consulting services for smart campus projects, we recognized financing component resulted from a timing difference between when control is transferred and when we collected cash consideration from the customer. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we recognized $94,271 interest income in connection with the aforementioned financing component. In addition, the Company reported interest income of $6,987 from increased bank deposit balance during the year ended December 31, 2020. These factors led to increased interest income as compared to the same period of 2019.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense was $26,035 for fiscal year 2020, compared to other income of $69,162 for fiscal year 2019. The increase in other expenses was primarily due to the loss of $37,468 from the disposal of property and equipment and penalty of $7,234 associated with our early termination of the original office leases.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

Provision for income taxes was $0.30 million for fiscal year 2020, increased from $0.16 million for fiscal year 2019 due to higher taxable income.

 

Net Income

 

Net income increased by 176.0% to $1.21 million for fiscal year 2020, from $0.44 million for fiscal year 2019. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.21 for fiscal year 2020, compared to $0.09 for fiscal year 2019.

 

Financial Condition

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash of $5.01 million, compared to $1.70 million as of December 31, 2019.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.26 million for fiscal year 2020, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $0.34 million for fiscal year 2019.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.40 million for fiscal year 2020, compared to $0.47 million for fiscal year 2019.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.34 million for fiscal year 2020, compared to $0.44 million for fiscal year 2019.

 

Impact of the COVID-19 on Performance and Financial Indicators

 

Our results of operations and financial conditions in 2020 were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and may continue to be affected by COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 and potentially beyond. COVID-19 has impact on China’s study abroad consulting and training services industry and the business operations of our Company. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results of operations in the future will depend on the future developments of the pandemic, including new information concerning the global severity of and actions taken to contain the pandemic, which are highly uncertain and unpredictable. In addition, our results of operations could be adversely affected to the extent that the pandemic harms the Chinese and global economy in general.

 

The pandemic and related travel restrictions have affected and may continue to adversely affect our business and results of operations, including our ability to provide one-on-one consulting services, the demand for our services, the ability of partner schools to pay back accounts receivable on a timely basis. We will pay close attention to the development of COVID-19 pandemic, and perform further assessment of its impact and take relevant measures to minimize the impact. Uncertainties associated with COVID-19 pandemic may cause the Company’s revenue and cash flows to underperform in the next 12 months.
