April Revenue Declines Over 20% Year-on-Year, Reaching a Recent Low

According to Ampushin's recent announcement, the consolidated net operating revenue for April 2025 was NT$406,117 thousand, a decrease of NT$214,122 thousand compared to NT$620,239 thousand in the same period of 2024, marking a year-on-year decline of 34.52%. This figure not only indicates a significant downturn in the company's revenue but also marks the lowest monthly revenue since February 2025.

Compared to March's revenue of NT$436,166 thousand, April's revenue also saw a month-on-month decrease of 6.89%, showing a continuous downward trend. This is the first time since the beginning of 2025 that Ampushin has experienced two consecutive months of revenue decline, indicating a noticeable slowdown in its operational momentum in early Q2.

Cumulative Revenue Declines Nearly 11%, Growth Momentum Slows

As of the end of April 2025, Ampushin's cumulative consolidated revenue was NT$1,571,476 thousand, a decrease of NT$192,680 thousand compared to NT$1,764,156 thousand in the same period of 2024, with a year-on-year decline of 10.92%. This data shows that despite a strong performance at the beginning of 2025, with January and February revenues both showing over 20% year-on-year growth, the revenue performance weakened significantly in March and April, leading to a decline in overall cumulative revenue.

Reviewing the revenue performance for the first four months of 2025:

  • January revenue was NT$449,327 thousand, a year-on-year increase of 43.59%
  • February revenue was NT$279,866 thousand, a year-on-year increase of 22.11%
  • March revenue was NT$436,166 thousand, a year-on-year decrease of 27.52%
  • April revenue was NT$406,117 thousand, a year-on-year decrease of 34.52%

The data indicates that Ampushin maintained a growth trend in early Q1, but from March onwards, it turned to a year-on-year decline, with the decline expanding month by month, indicating possible changes in market demand or shipment conditions.

Financial Report and Board Dynamics

According to the company's announcement, Ampushin issued a board meeting notice on May 6, 2025, and plans to hold a board meeting on May 14 to review the consolidated financial report for the first quarter of 2025. This will be the company's first public disclosure of complete financial data for Q1 2025, and the market will also focus on whether its gross margin, operating profit, and net profit performance align with the revenue trend.

Additionally, on April 24, 2025, Ampushin announced the approval of the 2024 annual employee and director/supervisor compensation distribution plan, with employee compensation of NT$11,490,831 and director compensation of NT$3,830,277, both paid in cash. The difference between the annual compensation and the recorded expenses indicates that there is still room for adjustment in the company's financial planning.

Historical Revenue Comparison and Trend Observation

Comparing the revenue for the same period in 2024 and 2025, it can be observed that Ampushin showed strong growth in full-year revenue for 2024, especially with outstanding performance in the second half. For example, the single-month revenue for December 2024 reached NT$474,199 thousand, a year-on-year increase of 40.96%; the total annual revenue reached NT$6,883,508 thousand, marking a year-on-year increase of 78.23%. However, entering 2025, although January and February continued the growth momentum, the year-on-year decline in March and April expanded rapidly, indicating that the growth momentum may have peaked.

The cumulative revenue for the first four months of 2025 was NT$1,571,476 thousand, only a decrease of NT$192,680 thousand compared to the same period in 2024, a year-on-year decline of 10.92%. Although the overall decline has not yet reached a warning level, if revenue continues to decline in the coming months, it may be difficult to maintain the high baseline level of 2024 for the full year.
