Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Financial Highlights
Greenland’s revenue was approximately $64.57 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease of approximately $2.99 million, or 4.4%, as compared to that of approximately $67.56 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in revenue was primarily a result of the decrease of approximately $3.60 million in the Company’s sales volume of transmission products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. On an Renminbi (“RMB”) basis, our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by approximately 2.2% as compared to that for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Greenland’s cost of goods sold consists primarily of material costs, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs, wages, employee compensation, amortization, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to the Company’s manufacturing activities. The total cost of goods sold was approximately $47.19 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease by approximately $1.65 million, or 3.4%, as compared to that of approximately $48.84 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Greenland’s gross margins were approximately 26.9% and 27.7%, respectively. The decrease in gross profit in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to a decrease in our sales volume.
Total operating expenses were $8.55 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of 15.6% from $10.13 million in the first nine months of 2023.

The decrease of restricted cash was due to a decrease of notes payable.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s PRC subsidiary, Zhejiang Zhongchai Machinery Co. Ltd., paid off approximately $8.56 million in bank loans, and approximately $0.69 million associated with loans to third parties, while maintaining $17.63 million cash on hand.
