Revenue generated from cables and wire harnesses decreased by 38.7%, to $13.6 million for fiscal year 2024, from $22.2 million for fiscal year 2023. Revenue generated from connectors decreased by 39.3%, to $1.1 million for fiscal year 2024, from $1.8 million for fiscal year 2023.

The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in the total sales volume due to customers’ shift towards zero inventory instead of advanced procurement, and  the decrease of the average selling price of our products for fiscal year 2024.

Revenue generated from Europe decreased by 43.3%, to $8.5 million for fiscal year 2024, from $15.0 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of sales in Denmark, Hungary and Bulgaria, which was partially offset by the increase of sales in Italy.

Revenue generated from Asia decreased by 34.9%, to $4.8 million for fiscal year 2024, from $7.4 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease was primarily due to sales decreases in China of $1.6 million, and sales decreases in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, of $1.0 million.

Revenue generated from the Americas decreased by 12.4%, to $1.4 million for fiscal year 2024, from $1.6 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the sales decrease in North America of $0.2 million.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue decreased by 33.1%, to $10.8 million for fiscal year 2024, from $16.2 million for fiscal year 2023, which was in line with the decrease of total revenue.

Inventory costs amounted to $7.3 million for fiscal year 2024, compared to $12.1 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease of inventory costs was primarily due to a 44.1% decrease in the total sales volume, which was partially offset by an 8.5% increase in the inventory cost per unit.

Labor costs amounted to $2.5 million for fiscal year 2024, compared to $2.9 million for fiscal year 2023. The decrease of labor costs was primarily because we reduced the number of manufacturing employees.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit decreased by 50.1%, to $3.9 million for fiscal year 2024, from $7.9 million for fiscal year 2023.

Gross profit margin decreased by 6.1%, to 26.6% for fiscal year 2024, from 32.7% for fiscal year 2023.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased by 5.1%, to $5.8 million for fiscal year 2024, from $6.1 million for fiscal year 2023. The expense reduction was mainly due to the decline in selling expenses and research and development expenses. The decrease was partially offset by the increase in the general and administrative expenses.

Other Income

Other income decreased to $0.5 million for fiscal year 2024, from $0.7 million for fiscal year 2023.

Net (Loss)/Income

Net income decreased by 158.7%, to net loss of $1.3 million for fiscal year 2024, from net income of $2.2 million for fiscal year 2023.

Basic and Diluted (Loss)/Earnings per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share was $0.13 for fiscal year 2024, compared to earnings per share of $0.22 for fiscal year 2023.

Market Driver

Asymmetric warfare, characterized by significant differences in military capabilities and strategies between opposing forces, has become prevalent in various global conflicts. Guerrilla warfare, a form of asymmetric warfare, is employed by militant groups who do not occupy large bases and instead use surprise attacks, ambushes, and terrorist tactics. Night combat is a common strategy in such conflicts, leading to an increased demand for advanced imaging systems and ammunition. The US military has utilized passive night vision devices and thermal imagers in weapons such as RPG-7 rocket launchers, M-72 66mm Light Anti-Tank Weapons, M-79 40mm grenade launchers, and M-67 90mm recoilless rifles. The Middle East’s economic and political instability over the last quarter-century has resulted in numerous instances of asymmetric warfare, increasing the demand for ammunition. Consequently, the global ammunition market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period. 

The Ammunition Market is experiencing significant growth due to the demand for newer generation ammunition by armed forces and militaries worldwide. Penetrating power and accuracy are key factors driving this trend. Training ammunition is also in high demand for peacekeeping missions and military personnel training. Companies like Rheinmetall and General Dynamics lead the market with innovative solutions, such as polymer-cased ammunition and advanced calibers. Militaries are modernizing their infantry weapons, leading to increased competition among munitions manufacturers. Military spending and geopolitical tensions continue to fuel demand for combat equipment, arms, and ammunition. Law enforcement agencies and reserve forces also contribute to the market’s gross volume. Expressions of Interest for artillery guns and the development of new calibers, like the Advanced 9mm Cartridge, further boost the industry. The area of impact and munition range are crucial considerations for military personnel, leading to the stockpiling of war reserves and inventory management. Terrorism and warfare equipment also contribute to the market’s growth.

Market Challenges

The global ammunition market faces significant challenges due to the illicit production and trade of ammunition. According to the United Nations Office of Disarmament Affairs (UNODA), over 80% of ammunition trade remains outside of reliable export data. The causes of weapons diversion are classified into six major categories by Conflict Armament Research (CAR): battlefield capture, loss from state custody, state-sponsored diversion, poorly managed national stockpiles, state collapse, and unknown causes. However, expert groups monitoring UN arms embargoes attribute the deviation of ammunition to the lack of basic accountability systems. The proliferation of illicit ammunition manufacturers poses a major threat to global security, as these manufacturers produce and transfer unmarked ammunition across international borders. This illegally manufactured ammunition is often used in terrorist activities and negatively impacts the demand for branded ammunition. Therefore, the rise of illicit ammunition manufacturers is expected to negatively impact the growth of the global ammunition market during the forecast period.The Ammunition Market faces numerous challenges in various sectors. In the military and law enforcement arenas, terrorism and warfare equipment requirements drive demand for ammunition and combat equipment. Defense budgets prioritize inventory for armed personnel, necessitating stockpiling of war reserves, artillery, and small-caliber ammunition. In civilian sectors, demand comes from sporting, hunting, self-defense, and territorial conflicts. Political instabilities, economic inequalities, and ceasefire violations fuel the need for military ordnance. The ammunition industry confronts regulatory hurdles, including restrictive legislation and compliance issues. The Gun Control bill and the Arms Trade Treaty, as multilateral treaties, impact international measures. Military modernization calls for infantry support programs and weaponry upgrades, often in specific calibers. Cross-border terrorism and drug trafficking activities further complicate the landscape. The ammunition market must adapt to these challenges while addressing civilian disarmament initiatives and firearms-related products.
