Three markets opened within the past 18 months accounted for 34.6% of total revenue; average system integration contract value doubled to $86,719
WUXI, China, Sept. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HUHUTECH International Group Inc. (Nasdaq: HUHU) (“HUHUTECH” or the “Company”), a system integration provider that designs and implements integrated facility management systems and industrial automation monitoring systems for the optoelectronic, semiconductor, telecom, and logistics industries, today reported financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Total revenues increased 8.6% to $10.67 million from $9.82 million in the prior-year period. Operations in the United States, Germany, and Singapore, none of which generated revenue in the first half of 2025, contributed $3.69 million, or 34.6% of total revenue.
The period was the first full reporting half in which HUHUTECH recognized revenue from five countries. Revenue from the PRC grew 29.4% to $4.97 million. That growth, combined with the $3.69 million contributed by the three newest markets, offset a planned contraction in Japan, where revenue declined to $2.01 million from $5.98 million. The Company completed 104 system integration projects during the half, compared with 220 a year earlier, while the average contract price rose to $86,719 from $42,727, reflecting a shift toward fewer, substantially larger engagements.
Net loss for the half was $16.65 million, or $0.68 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $8.73 million, or $0.38 per share, a year earlier. Non-cash share-based compensation of $13.87 million and a $2.03 million provision for credit losses together accounted for $15.90 million of the reported loss. Excluding those two items, adjusted net loss was $0.75 million for the first half of 2026. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measure” below.
Yujun Xiao, Chief Executive Officer of HUHUTECH, commented:
“Eighteen months ago, every dollar of our revenue came from two countries. This half, five countries contributed, and our three newest markets delivered $3.69 million while still in their initial roll-out phase. We accepted a lower Japan revenue to fund that build-out, and we are now running larger contracts — the average system integration project we completed in the first half was roughly twice the size of a year ago. The expansion carries real cost, and it shows in our operating expenses. It also puts our engineering teams alongside customers in the regions where new semiconductor and optoelectronic capacity is actually being added.”

(Six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with six months ended June 30, 2025)

Revenue
Total revenues were $10.67 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $0.85 million, or 8.6%, from $9.82 million in the prior-year period. Revenue from system integration projects was $9.02 million, a decrease of $0.38 million, or 4.1%, from $9.40 million, and represented 84.6% of total revenue compared with 95.7% a year earlier. The decline reflects the Company’s deliberate contraction of its Japanese operations, partially offset by initial project activity in the United States and Germany, where engagements remained in the early roll-out stage during the period.
Revenue from product sales was $1.65 million, an increase of $1.23 million, or 294.4%, from $0.42 million. The increase was driven by higher hardware content required within system integration engagements during the half.
Revenue by geography was as follows:
| (US$) | Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 |
Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 |
| PRC | 4,967,410 | 3,838,722 |
| Japan | 2,005,202 | 5,978,750 |
| United States | 2,785,759 | — |
| Germany | 782,821 | — |
| Singapore | 124,074 | — |
| Total revenues | 10,665,266 | 9,817,472 |
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit was $3.37 million, an increase of $0.23 million, or 7.3%, from $3.14 million. Gross margin was 31.6% compared with 32.0%. Gross profit from system integration projects was essentially unchanged at $3.09 million, with margin improving to 34.2% from 33.0% as the Company reduced its reliance on outsourced engineering. Gross profit from product sales increased to $0.28 million from $0.04 million, with a margin of 17.1% compared with 9.5%, reflecting the mix of hardware required by customers during the period.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $20.20 million, an increase of $8.45 million, or 71.9%, from $11.75 million.
General and administrative expenses were $19.44 million, an increase of $9.10 million, or 88.1%, from $10.33 million. The increase was attributable principally to a $5.07 million increase in non-cash share-based compensation, a $2.00 million increase in provisions for credit losses, and a $1.80 million increase in consulting and audit fees. On January 13, 2026, the Company issued 1,390,000 ordinary shares under its 2025 Equity Incentive Plan with a fair value of $13.87 million, based on a share price of $9.98 on the approval date. The comparable issuance in the prior-year period was 2,000,000 ordinary shares under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan with a fair value of $8.80 million.
Selling expenses were $0.55 million, a decrease of $0.35 million, or 38.5%, from $0.90 million, driven primarily by a $0.4 million reduction in advertising expense.
Research and development expenses were $0.21 million, a decrease of $0.31 million, or 60.2%, from $0.52 million, and represented 1.9% of total revenue compared with 5.3%. The decrease was primarily due to reduced R&D headcount. The Company expects to allocate approximately 50% of its IPO proceeds to the construction of a 5,000-square-meter research and development plant in the Xinwu District of Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, together with equipment for the production of gas supply systems.
Loss from Operations and Net Loss
Loss from operations was $16.83 million compared with $8.61 million. Total other expense, net, decreased to $4,411 from $55,459, principally reflecting a $50,000 reduction in foreign exchange losses and $30,000 of warehouse rental income, partially offset by a $23,000 increase in interest expense.
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $180,361 compared with an income tax provision of $64,686 in the prior-year period. HUHU China renewed its “high-tech enterprise” tax status in December 2025; the certificate is valid for three years and expires in December 2028.
Net loss was $16.65 million, or $0.68 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $8.73 million, or $0.38 per share. Weighted average shares outstanding were 24,621,158 compared with 23,018,717.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2026, the Company held cash of $3.58 million compared with $4.43 million as of December 31, 2025, and had working capital of $4.20 million. Total assets were $22.41 million and total shareholders’ equity was $7.48 million, compared with $22.36 million and $7.42 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. Accounts receivable, net, were $10.94 million compared with $9.25 million. Total bank loan balances were approximately $4.5 million, and the Company expects to renew the majority of these facilities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $3.36 million compared with $0.52 million in the prior-year period. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.06 million compared with $0.10 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.26 million compared with net cash used of $0.04 million. It included $3.0 million of gross proceeds from the registered direct offering completed on May 5, 2026, consisting of 400,000 ordinary shares priced at $1.50 per share and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,600,000 ordinary shares.
Subsequent to the end of the period, on August 18, 2026, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the Bank of Communications for $221,073 (RMB 1,500,000), maturing August 18, 2027, at a fixed annual interest rate of 2.20%.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this release includes adjusted net loss, a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net loss excluding share-based compensation expense and provisions for credit losses. Management uses this measure to assess operating performance across periods without the effect of items that are non-cash or that do not reflect the current-period operating cost of delivering projects. Adjusted net loss should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is presented below.
