| [18-December-2025] |
NEW YORK, Dec. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Fly-E Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: FLYE) ("Fly-E" or the "Company"), an electric vehicle company engaged in designing, installing, selling, and renting smart electric motorcycles, electric bikes, and electric scooters, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2026 ended September 30, 2025. Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Summary
Mr. Zhou (Andy) Ou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fly-E, commented, "We navigated the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 with discipline and focus, despite a challenging retail environment. Our wholesale business continued to demonstrate strong momentum as we strategically shift our focus to this segment, with wholesale revenue increasing 91.3% year-over-year to $1.7 million. In addition, our rental business achieved a gross margin of 79.8%, demonstrating the potential to be a key profitability driver. At the same time, total operating expenses declined by 51.0% compared to the same period last year, reflecting the impact of our cost-optimization measures and our more efficient operations. While market conditions remain dynamic, particularly within the retail E-Bike segment, we are encouraged by the early traction of our rental business, our improving operational efficiency, and the resilience of our wholesale channel. Looking ahead, we will stay focused on enhancing profitability, strengthening our product and service portfolio, and improving operational efficiency as we position Fly-E for sustainable long-term growth." Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results Net Revenues Net revenues were $3.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 42.7% from $6.8 million in the same period last year. The decrease in net revenues was primarily driven by a decrease in average unit price of EVs, which dropped by 61% as a result of lowering the selling prices to reduce aged inventory for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Retail sales revenue was $2.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 65.8% from $5.9 million in the same period last year. Wholesale revenue was $1.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of 91.3% from $0.9 million in the same period last year. Rental services revenue was $0.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. The Company did not generate revenue from rental services in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease in retail sales revenue is mainly due to recent lithium-battery accidents involving E-Bikes and E-Scooters. With an increasing number of lithium-battery explosion incidents in New York, customers are less inclined to purchase E-Bikes. Consequently, sales have declined as customers opt for oil-powered vehicles over electric vehicles. The decrease in retail sales also attributed in part to the closures and disposition of the Company's retail stores during the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. The increase in wholesales revenue was driven primarily by revenue contribution from the disposed entities during the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Although certain retail stores were sold, these stores continued to purchase products from the Company, which contributes an increase of wholesale revenue. Cost of Revenues Cost of revenues was $2.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 25.2% from $3.9 million in the same period last year. The decrease in cost of revenues was primarily attributable to a reduction in sales volume. Gross Profit Gross profit was $1.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 66.4% from $2.9 million in the same period last year. Gross margin was 25.0% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, decreased from 42.6% in the same period last year. The decrease in gross margin was mainly due to a combined effect of decrease in average unit price of EVs, which dropped by 61% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 and the increased revenues from rental business with higher margin than our other businesses. Gross margin of rental business was 79.8% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. The Company did not generate profit from rental services in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Operating Expenses Total operating expenses were $2.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 51.0% from $4.1 million in the same period last year.

The decrease in net revenues was driven primarily by a decrease in total units sold, which decreased by 2,924 units, from 31,936 units for first half of fiscal year 2025 to 29,012 units for the first half of fiscal year 2026, and as a result of lowering the selling prices to reduce aged inventory. From the first half of fiscal year 2025 to the first half of fiscal year 2026, while the number of units sold of certain other types of products increased, the quantities of motorcycles and batteries sold, which normally contribute significantly to revenues, decreased by 641 units and 5,332 units, respectively, thereby resulting in an overall decrease in the total number of units sold. Retail sales revenue was $5.8 million in the first half of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 54.7%, from $12.8 million in the same period last year. Wholesale revenue was $3.2 million in the first half of fiscal year 2026, an increase of 65.5% from $1.9 million in the same period last year. The decrease in retail sales revenue is mainly due to decrease in number of retail stores during the first half of fiscal year 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the Company's financial information presented in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (the "U.S. GAAP"), management periodically uses certain "non-GAAP financial measures," as such term is defined under the rules of the SEC, to clarify and enhance understanding of past performance and prospects for the future. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's operating performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are included in or excluded from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For example, non-GAAP measures may exclude the impact of certain items such as acquisitions, divestitures, gains, losses and impairments, or items outside of management's control. Management believes that the following non-GAAP financial measure provides investors and analysts useful insight into its financial position and operating performance. Any non-GAAP measure provided should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the most directly comparable measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Further, the calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the calculation of similarly titled financial measures presented by other companies and therefore may not be comparable among companies. The Company uses EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) to evaluate its operating performance. The Company believes EBITDA provides additional insight into its underlying, ongoing operating performance and facilitates year-to-year comparisons by excluding the earnings impact of interest, tax, depreciation and amortization and that presenting EBITDA is more representative of its operational performance and may be more useful for investors. The Company reconciles its non-GAAP financial measure to its net income, which is its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA includes adjustments for provision for income taxes, as applicable, interest income and expense, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income as determined by U.S. GAAP, and its calculations thereof may not be comparable to those reported by other companies. The Company believes EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance and provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in its business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on U.S. GAAP measures and because it eliminates items that have less bearing on its operating performance. EBITDA, as presented herein, is a supplemental measure of its performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to its U.S. GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting its business. EBITDA is a measure of operating performance that is not defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net (loss) income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
