Mr. Zhou (Andy) Ou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fly-E, remarked, "Despite recent market challenges, we remain committed to driving growth and expanding our market presence. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, we held a stable gross margin above 40%, even as operating expenses increased with our efforts to add e-bike rental business. For the first half of fiscal 2025, our gross margin improved to 40.9%, up from 39.0% last year, reflecting disciplined cost management and a commitment to profitability. While we saw a dip in revenue due to external factors, these stable margins underscore the effectiveness of our approach.
On the product and market side, we're energized by the success of our recent initiatives. At October's Electrify Expo in New York, our product lineup— featuring 11 models spanning e-bikes, e-motorcycles, and e-scooters, with three newly launched models in the e-motorcycles—drew strong interest and received highly positive feedback. Additionally, the launch of our e-bike Rental Service offers customers a flexible, affordable way to experience our products and positions us well to meet shifting consumer needs. As part of our growth strategy, we're expanding into key markets like Miami, Los Angeles and Toronto and broaden our presence . On the technological front, we are leveraging innovation to enhance customer convenience, including ongoing development of our mobile apps designed to streamline user experiences and provide more features for our customers. Our involvement in New York City's Trade-in Program for e-bikes and batteries is aligned with our commitment to setting high safety standards in the electric vehicle industry, helping provide UL-certified e-bikes for delivery workers. Moving forward, our dedication to innovation, safety, and superior customer experience is expected to continue to drive growth and enhance value for our shareholders."
Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results
Net revenues were $6.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, a decrease of 22.1%, from $8.8 million for the same period last year. The decrease in net revenues was primarily due to the decrease in sales volume by 5,850 units, from 20,906 units for the same period last year to 15,056 units for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
Retail sales revenue was $5.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, a decrease of 12.5%, from $6.8 million for the same period last year. Wholesale revenue was $0.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, a decrease of 54.8% from $2.0 million for the same period last year. 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, the management believes that sales have declined as customers opt for oil-powered vehicles over electric vehicles. The decrease in wholesales revenue was driven primarily by the decrease in orders from the top two customers who closed their stores.

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.
