Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. Reports Q3 2025 Performance
Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. (Nasdaq: CTNT), a leader in providing warehousing and logistics services, has revealed its financial results for the third quarter of 2025. The company reported a remarkable revenue of $361,935 from logistics and warehousing services, marking a significant increase of 491.3% compared to the previous year.
Understanding the Third Quarter Financial Performance
As detailed in the quarterly report, the operating loss was noted at $1,314,650. This figure includes a $731,307 impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill. However, the interest income of $269,927 slightly offset the total loss. The reported net loss translated to a 15% reduction from the same period in 2024.
CEO Comments on Current Business Climate
Tony Liu, Chairman and CEO of Cheetah, highlighted the ongoing challenges faced by the company due to tariff turmoil impacting logistics and warehousing activities. Liu mentioned that international freight demand continues to be influenced by trade tensions, resulting in cautious consumer behavior. The company has remained proactive in addressing market fluctuations by enhancing labor and logistics operations, adjusting cost controls, and optimizing interest income from earlier public offerings.
A Closer Look at Revenue Sources
For the three-month period that concluded on September 30, 2025, Cheetah reported logistics and warehousing revenue, where $41,935 (11.6% of total revenue) came from Edward Transit Express Group Inc., acquired in February 2024, and $320,000 (88.4%) from TW & EW Services Inc., acquired in December 2024.
Impact of Trade Policies on Financial Outcomes
Despite the strategic acquisitions, revenue from Edward saw a decline of 31.5% compared to the same quarter in 2024. The decrease was significantly attributed to ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions that diminished customer demand and shipment volumes. Although market conditions slightly stabilized thanks to resumed trade discussions, shipment volumes did not bounce back to previous levels, creating an air of uncertainty for customers.
Financial Metrics and Operational Efficiencies
Cheetah’s cost of revenue was $317,757, largely arising from labor costs for TW & EW Services and ocean freight service costs for Edward. Despite the revenue challenges, Cheetah managed to report a gross profit of $44,178 during this quarter.
Administrative Expenses Show Improvement
Administrative expenses were reduced by 27.3% to $801,263 compared to the previous year's $1,102,454. Key cost reductions were driven by staff optimization, shrinking recruiting expenses, and a decrease in legal and accounting fees. However, the relocation of headquarters and rising lease expenses slightly offset some savings.
Long-Term Outlook and Cash Flow Situation
As of September 30, 2025, the company’s current assets totaled $9.7 million, while current liabilities were approximately $1.3 million. Cheetah reported a net cash flow from operating activities of $0.7 million, although substantial outflows in investing activities indicate ongoing expansions and adjustments.
Future Considerations
Cheetah’s management is focused on enhancing liquidity and capital access by continuing to generate cash from operations, along with potential financing solutions. The company remains committed to monitoring market conditions closely and adapting its operational strategies accordingly.
