Management Commentary

Mr. Shenping Yin, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Recon, commented: "Fiscal 2026 marked a significant turning point for Recon. Revenue increased by 65.8% to RMB109.9 million, and gross margin was lifted to 33.2%. These factors, when combined, narrowed our net loss compared to the previous year. The primary growth driver was our strategic expansion into overseas oilfield projects.

We are pleased to announce that we have reached a significant milestone that we have been working towards for several years. On 28 September 2026, we held a ceremony to mark the commencement of operations at our waste plastic chemical recycling plant in Weifang, Shandong Province. The plant has been designed to process 40,000 tons of low-value waste plastics per year, with an expected output of 30,000 tons of pyrolysis oil and 6,000 tons of carbon residue. This strategic partnership provides Recon with a solid foundation in the circular economy, offering a new growth opportunity in addition to our core oilfield services.

As we look ahead to fiscal 2027, our strategic priorities are clear as we will bring the chemical recycling plant to commercial production, extend our overseas and offshore oilfield footprint, and rebuild our domestic service capabilities. Oil price volatility and broader macroeconomic conditions continue to present challenges, however, we enter the new year with a more diversified business portfolio, a strengthened margin profile and a diligent cost structure. These elements, we believe, will underpin sustainable, long-term growth for our shareholders."

Fiscal Year Ended 2026 Financial Results:

Revenue

Total revenues for the year ended June 30, 2026 were approximately RMB109.9 million ($16.2 million), an increase of approximately RMB43.6 million ($6.4 million) or 65.8% from RMB66.3 million ($9.8 million) for the same period in 2025.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenues increased from RMB51.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 to RMB73.4 million ($10.8 million) for the same period in 2026.

For the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, cost of revenue from automation product and software was approximately RMB28.6 million and RMB47.2 million ($7.0 million), respectively, representing an increase of approximately RMB18.6 million ($2.7 million) or 65.0%. The increase in cost of revenue from automation product and software was primarily attributable to increased revenue of automation products and software.

For the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, cost of revenue from equipment and accessories was approximately RMB13.2 million and RMB20.4 million ($3.0 million), respectively, representing an increase of approximately RMB7.2 million ($1.1 million) or 54.7%. The increase in costs of revenue was primarily driven by expanded business activity, mirroring the same factor behind the growth in revenue.

For the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, cost of revenue from oilfield environmental protection was approximately RMB8.5 million and RMB5.7 million ($0.8 million), respectively, representing a decrease of approximately RMB2.8 million ($0.4 million) or 33.1%. While actively pursuing new business opportunities in a constrained market, the Company undertook testing projects. Given their high uncertainty, equipment costs for these projects were fully expensed upon purchase in the prior period, resulting in lower costs in the current period compared to the prior period.

For the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, cost of revenue from platform outsourcing services was approximately RMB0.6 million and nil, respectively, representing a decrease of approximately RMB0.6 million ($0.1 million) or 100.0%. The reason for the decrease is consistent with that of the revenue decline.

Gross profit

Gross profit increased to RMB36.5 million ($5.4 million) for the year ended June 30, 2026 from RMB15.2 million ($2.2 million) for the same period in 2025. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 33.2% for the year ended June 30, 2026 from 23.0% for the same period in 2025.

Operating expenses

Selling expenses decreased by 43.6%, or RMB4.1 million ($0.6 million), from RMB9.3 million ($1.4 million) in the year ended June 30, 2025 to RMB5.2 million ($0.8 million) in the same period of 2026.

General and administrative expenses increased by 11.8%, or RMB5.8 million ($0.9 million), from RMB49.6 million ($7.3 million) in the year ended June 30, 2025 to RMB55.4 million ($8.2 million) in the same period of 2026.

Net recovery of credit losses of RMB2.9 million ($0.4 million) for the year ended June 30, 2025 as compared to net provision for credit losses of RMB4.1 million ($0.6 million) for the same period in 2026.

Research and development expenses decreased by 21.7%, or RMB3.6 million ($0.5 million) from RMB16.4 million ($2.4 million) for the year ended June 30, 2025 to RMB12.9 million ($1.9 million) for the same period of 2026.

Loss from operations

Loss from operations was RMB41.2 million ($6.1 million) for the year ended June 30, 2026, compared to a loss of RMB57.3 million ($8.4 million) for the same period of 2025. This RMB16.1 million ($2.4 million) decrease in loss from operations was mainly driven by higher gross profit, as previously discussed.

Change in fair value of warrant liability

The Company classified the warrants issued in connection with common share offering as liabilities at their fair value and adjusted the warrant instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statement of operations. Gain in change in fair value of warrant liability was RMB6,226 ($917) and RMB671 ($99) for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, respectively. The primary reason for the decrease in the fair-value gain of the warrant liability was the change in the fair value assessment price.

Interest income

Net interest income was RMB10.9 million ($1.6 million) for the year ended June 30, 2026, compared to net interest income of RMB12.3 million ($1.8 million) for the same period of 2025. The RMB1.4 million ($0.2 million) decrease in net interest income was primarily attributable to the Company's receipt of partial repayments of loans to third parties, partially offset by interest income from outstanding loans to third parties, during the year ended June 30, 2026.

Other income (expenses), net.

Other net expenses was RMB1.3 million ($0.2 million) for the year ended June 30, 2026, compared to other net income of RMB1.3 million ($0.2 million) for the same period of 2025. The RMB2.6 million ($0.4 million) decrease in other net income was primarily due to the closure of Qinghai BHD and the disposal of 51% equity interest in MSJ, which together resulted in a total loss on equity shares investments of RMB1.1 million. Additionally, following the closure of the Qinghai office, RMB0.6 million in payables that could no longer be settled was recognized as income, RMB0.2 million in receivables that could not be collected was written off as a loss and an increase in foreign exchange transaction expenses of RMB1.0 million due to the fluctuation of exchange rate of RMB against US dollars during the year ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025.

Net loss

As a result of the factors described above, net loss was RMB31.6 million ($4.7 million) for the year ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of RMB12.1 million ($1.8 million) from net loss of RMB43.7 million ($6.4 million) for the same period of 2025.

Cash and short-term investment

As of June 30, 2026, we had cash in the amount of approximately RMB29.7 million ($4.4 million) and short-term investment in bank fixed income product of approximately RMB9.0 million ($1.3 million). As of June 30, 2025, we had cash in the amount of approximately RMB98.9 million ($14.6 million) and short-term investment in bank fixed income product of approximately RMB3.6 million ($0.5 million).
