FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The discussions of Trio-Tech International’s (the “Company”) business and activities set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and in other past and future reports and announcements by the Company may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and assumptions regarding future activities and results of operations of the Company. In light of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company: market acceptance of Company products and services; changing business conditions or technologies and volatility in the semiconductor industry, which could affect demand for the Company’s products and services; the impact of competition; problems with technology; product development schedules; delivery schedules; changes in military or commercial testing specifications which could affect the market for the Company’s products and services; difficulties in profitably integrating acquired businesses, if any, into the Company; risks associated with conducting business internationally and especially in Asia, including currency fluctuations and devaluation, currency restrictions, local laws and restrictions and possible social, political and economic instability; changes in U.S. and global financial and equity markets, including market disruptions and significant interest rate fluctuations; ongoing public health issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic both nationally and internationally; the trade tension between U.S. and China; inflation; the war in Ukraine; other economic, financial and regulatory factors beyond the Company’s control and uncertainties relating to our ability to operate our business in China; uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and the fact that rules and regulation in China can change quickly with little advance notice, along with the risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operation at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers could result in a material change in our operations, financial performance and/or the value of our common stock, no par value (“Common Stock”) or impair our ability to raise money. Other than statements of historical fact, all statements made in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking, including, but not limited to, statements regarding industry prospects, future results of operations or financial position, and statements of our intent, belief and current expectations about our strategic direction, prospective and future financial results and condition. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “potential,” “believes,” “can impact,” “continue,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict, which could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from our expectations, forecasts and assumptions.

Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changed circumstances, or the occurrence of unanticipated events. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 ( “Fiscal 2022” ).

Significant Accounting Policies. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies summarized in Note 1 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10 -K for Fiscal 2022.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022 - 02 updating Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326: Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326 ): Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDR") and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022 - 02” ), which require that an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326 - 20. The Company has completed its assessment and concluded that ASU 2022 - 02 has no significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021 - 10 ASC Topic 832: Government Assistance (“Topic 832” ): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance (“ASU 2021 - 10” ), which expected to increase transparency in financial reporting by requiring business entities to disclose information about certain types of government assistance received. ASU 2021 - 10 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021 for all entities except not -for-profit entities and employee benefit plans within the scope of Topics 960, 962, and 965 on plan accounting. The Company has completed its assessment and concluded that ASU 2021 - 10 is applicable to the Company as the Company received government grants. The Company will make the necessary disclosures in the financial statements for Fiscal 2023.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016 - 13 ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (“Topic 326” ) (“ASU 2016 - 13” ) for the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Topic 326 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has completed its assessment and concluded that ASU 2016 - 03 has no significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not yet effective until after March 31, 2023, are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

4. TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, and although management generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from the customers in certain circumstances.

Senior management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. Management includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, management believed the allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, was adequate.

The following table represents the changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts:

Rental Property I - MaoYe Property

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, TTCQ purchased an office in Chongqing, China from MaoYe Property Ltd. (“MaoYe”) for a total cash purchase price of RMB 5,554 , or approximately $ 894 . During the year ended June 30, 2019, the Company sold thirteen of the fifteen units constituting the MaoYe Property. Management has decided not to sell the remaining two units of MaoYe properties in the near future, due to current conditions of the property market in China. A new tenancy agreement has been secured for the property during the quarter and will be effective from February 1, 2023 for a period of 4 years at a monthly rate of RMB15, or approximately $ 2 . Pursuant to the agreement, monthly rental will increase by 5% each year from the third year onwards.

Property purchased from MaoYe generated a rental income of $nil and $ 8 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $nil and $ 4 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Depreciation expense for MaoYe was $ 4 and $ 12 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 4 and $ 12 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Rental Property II - JiangHuai

(“JiangHuai”) for a total purchase price of RMB 3,600 , or approximately $ 580 . As of March 31, 2023, TTCQ had not received the title deed for properties purchased from JiangHuai. While the above is not expected to affect the property’s market value, the COVID- 19 pandemic and current economic situation is likely to cause delays in court to consummate the execution of the sale.

Property purchased from JiangHuai did not generate any rental income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Depreciation expense for JiangHuai was $ 7 and $ 20 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 7 and $ 21 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Rental Property III FuLi

In Fiscal 2010, TTCQ entered into a Memorandum Agreement with Chongqing FuLi Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“FuLi”) to purchase two commercial properties totaling 311.99 square meters (“Office Space”) located in Jiang Bei District Chongqing. The total purchase price committed and paid was RMB 4,025, or approximately $ 648 . The development was completed, the property was transferred to TTCQ in April 2013 and the title deed was received during the third quarter of Fiscal 2014.

In August 2022, TTCQ signed a new tenancy agreement for one of the two commercial properties for a period of 1 year at a monthly rate of RMB6, or approximately $ 1 . TTCQ is actively searching for tenants to occupy the other commercial property, which is vacant as of the date of this Report.

Properties purchased from FuLi generated a rental income of $ 3 and $ 7 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 4 and $ 19 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Depreciation expense for FuLi was $ 7 and $ 22 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 8 and $ 23 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Summary

Total rental income for all investment properties in China was $ 3 and $ 15 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 4 and $ 23 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

Depreciation expenses for all investment properties in China were $ 18 and $ 54 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 19 and $ 54 for the same period in Fiscal 2022.

a)

In Fiscal 2011, the Company signed a Joint Venture agreement (the “Agreement”) with Jia Sheng Property Development Co. Ltd. (the “Developer”) to form a new company, Junzhou Co. Limited (“Joint Venture” or “Junzhou”), to jointly develop the “Singapore Themed Park” project (the “Project”). The Company paid RMB10,000 for the 10 % investment in the Joint Venture. The Developer paid the Company a management fee of RMB 5,000 in cash upon signing of the Agreement, with a remaining fee of RMB 5,000 payable upon fulfilment of certain conditions in accordance with the Agreement. The Company further reduced its investment by RMB 137 , or approximately $22, through the losses from operations incurred by the Joint Venture.

In Fiscal 2014, the Company disposed of its entire 10% interest in the Joint Venture but, to date, has not received payment in full. The Company recognized a disposal based on the recorded net book value of RMB 5,000 , or equivalent to $ 803 , from net considerations paid, in accordance with GAAP under ASC Topic 845 Non-monetary Consideration. It is presented under “Other Assets” as non-current assets to defer the recognition of the gain on the disposal of the 10 % interest in the Joint Venture investment until such time that the consideration is paid, so the gain can be ascertained.

b)

Amounts of RMB 5,000 , or approximately $ 728 , as disclosed in Note 5, plus the interest receivable on long-term loan receivable of RMB 1,250 , or approximately $ 182 , and impairment on interest of RMB 906 , or approximately $ 132 .

The shop lots are to be delivered to TTCQ upon completion of the construction of the shop lots in the Project. The initial targeted date of completion was in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. However, the progress has been delayed as the developer is currently undergoing asset reorganization process, to re-negotiate with their creditors to complete the project.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021, the Company accrued an impairment charge of $ 1,580 related to the doubtful recovery of the down payment on property in the Project in Chongqing, China. The Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge due to increased uncertainties regarding the project’s viability, given the developers weakening financial condition as well as uncertainties arising from the negative real-estate environment in China, implementation of control measures on real-estate lending in China and its relevant government policies, together with effects of the ongoing pandemic. The local court is verifying the documents due to the sizable number of creditors as of March 31, 2023.

9. LINES OF CREDIT

Carrying value of the Company’s lines of credit approximates its fair value because the interest rates associated with the lines of credit are adjustable in accordance with market situations when the Company borrowed funds with similar terms and remaining maturities.

The Company’s credit rating provides it with ready and adequate access to funds in global markets.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had certain lines of credit that are collateralized by restricted deposits.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Deposits with banks are not fully insured by the local government or agency and are consequently exposed to risk of loss. The Company believes that the probability of bank failure, causing loss to the Company, is remote.

The Company is, from time to time, the subject of litigation claims and assessments arising out of matters occurring in its normal business operations. In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

14. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company operated in four segments; the testing service industry (which performs structural and electronic tests of semiconductor devices), the designing and manufacturing of equipment (assembly of equipment that tests the structural integrity of integrated circuits and other products), distribution of various products from other manufacturers in Singapore and Asia and the real estate segment in China.

The cost of equipment, current year investment in new equipment and depreciation expense are allocated into respective segments based on primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

All intersegment sales were sales from the manufacturing segment to the testing and distribution segment. Total intersegment sales were $ 64 and $ 733 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 232 and $ 1,052 for the same period in fiscal 2022. Corporate assets consisted primarily of cash and prepaid expenses. Corporate expenses consisted primarily of stock option expense, salaries, insurance, professional expenses and directors' fees. Corporate expenses are allocated to the four segments on a predetermined fixed amount calculated based on the annual budgeted sales, except the Malaysia operation, which is calculated based on actual sales. The following segment information table includes segment operating income or loss after including corporate expenses allocated to the segments, which gets eliminated in the consolidation.

16. INCOME TAX

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and income tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws. The statute of limitations, in general, is open for years 2016 to 2022 for tax authorities in those jurisdictions to audit or examine income tax returns. The Company is under annual review by the tax authorities of the respective jurisdiction to which the subsidiaries belong.

Due to the enactment of the Tax Act, the Company is subject to a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”).  GILTI is a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. Companies subject to GILTI have the option to account for the GILTI tax as a period cost if and when incurred, or to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences including outside basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period cost. GILTI expense was $Nil and $ 83 for three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $Nil for the same period in fiscal 2022.

The Company's income tax expense was $ 8 and $ 474 for three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $ 170 and $ 503 for the same period in Fiscal 2022. Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) from continuing operations was 14 % and 500 % for the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense and effective tax rate was due to the following:

1.

A $ 81 reduction relating to GILTI tax provisions pursuant to final tax filings for Fiscal 2022.

2.

Tax expense for three months ending March 31, 2022 included additional tax arising from tax assessments of prior periods.

The Company accrues penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits when necessary, as a component of penalties and interest expense, respectively. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits or related accrued penalties or interest expense at March 31, 2023.

In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on these criteria, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will not realize the benefits of the federal, state, and foreign deductible differences. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established against deferred tax assets recorded in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions.

17. REVENUE

The Company generates revenue primarily from 3 different segments: Manufacturing, Testing and Distribution. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes. The revenues are recognized as separate performance obligations that are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to the customer.

Significant Judgments

The Company’s arrangements with its customers include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. A product or service is considered distinct if it is separately identifiable from other deliverables in the arrangement and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer.

The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis (“SSP”). Determining the SSP for each distinct performance obligation and allocation of consideration from an arrangement to the individual performance obligations and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition are significant judgments with respect to these arrangements. The Company typically establishes the SSP based on observable prices of products or services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar clients. The Company may estimate SSP by considering internal costs, profit objectives and pricing practices in certain circumstances.

18

Warranties, discounts and allowances are estimated using historical and recent data trends. The Company includes estimates in the transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable in subsequent periods. The Company’s products and services are generally not sold with a right of return, nor has the Company experienced significant returns from or refunds to its customers.

Manufacturing

The Company primarily derives revenue from the sale of both front-end and back-end semiconductor test equipment and related peripherals, maintenance and support of all these products, installation and training services and the sale of spare parts. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes.

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators, including:

whether the Company has a present right to payment;

the customer has legal title;

the customer has physical possession;

the customer has significant risk and rewards of ownership; and

the customer has accepted the product, or whether customer acceptance is considered a formality based on history of acceptance of similar products (for example, when the customer has previously accepted the same equipment, with the same specifications, and when we can objectively demonstrate that the tool meets all the required acceptance criteria, and when the installation of the system is deemed perfunctory).

Not all indicators need to be met for the Company to conclude that control has transferred to the customer. In circumstances in which revenue is recognized prior to the product acceptance, the portion of revenue associated with its performance obligations of product installation and training services are deferred and recognized upon acceptance.

The majority of sales under the Manufacturing segment include a standard 12 -month warranty which are mainly assurance warranty and are not separate performance obligations. Warranty provided for some customized products may be classified as service warranties and are separate performance obligations. Transaction prices are allocated to this performance obligation using cost plus method. The portion of revenue associated with warranty service is deferred and recognized as revenue over the warranty period, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of warranty services provided by the Company.

Testing

The Company renders testing services to manufacturers and purchasers of semiconductors and other entities who either lack testing capabilities or whose in-house screening facilities are insufficient. The Company primarily derives testing revenue from burn-in services, manpower supply and other associated services. SSP is directly observable from the sales orders. Revenue is allocated to performance obligations satisfied at a point in time depending upon terms of the sales order. Generally, there is no other performance obligation other than what has been stated inside the sales order for each of these sales.

Terms of contract that may indicate potential variable consideration include warranty, late delivery penalty and reimbursement to solve nonconformance issues for rejected products. Based on historical and recent data trends, it is concluded that these terms of the contract do not represent potential variable consideration. The transaction price is not contingent on the occurrence of any future event.

Distribution

The Company distributes complementary products made by manufacturers around the world. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether control has transferred by considering several indicators discussed above. The Company recognizes the revenue at a point in time, generally upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer or distributors, depending upon terms of the sales order.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and collections may result in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, contract assets, customer advances, deposits and contract liabilities. The Company’s payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment of 70% to 90% of total contract consideration within 30 to 60 days of shipment with the remainder payable within 30 days of acceptance. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.

19. STOCK OPTIONS

On September 24, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Employee Plan”) and the 2007 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Directors Plan” and, together with the 2007 Employee Plan, the “2007 Plans”), each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 3, 2007. Each of the 2007 Plans were amended during the term of such plan to increase the number of shares covered thereby. Each of the 2007 Plans terminated by their respective terms on September 24, 2017.

On September 14, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2017 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and the 2017 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 4, 2017.

Assumptions

The fair value for the stock options granted to both employees and directors was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions, assuming:

An expected life varying from 2.50 to 3.25 years, calculated in accordance with the guidance provided in SEC Staff bulletin No. 110 for plain vanilla options using the simplified method, since our equity shares have been publicly traded for only a limited period of time and we did not have sufficient historical exercise data at the grant date of the options;

A risk-free interest rate varying from 0.11 % to 4.17 % ( 2022: 0.11 % to 2.35 %);

No expected dividend payments and;

Expected volatility of 47.3 % to 73.85 % ( 2022: 45.38 % to 55.59 %).

2017 Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2017 Employee Plan permits the grant of stock options to its employees covering up to an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2017 Employee Plan in December, 2021 to increase the shares covered thereby from 300,000 shares to an aggregate of 600,000 shares, which amendment was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the annual meeting held in December 2021. Under the 2017 Employee Plan, all options must be granted with an exercise price of not less than fair value as of the grant date and the options granted must be exercisable within a maximum of ten years after the date of grant, or such lesser period of time as is set forth in the stock option agreements. The options may be exercisable (a) immediately as of the effective date of the stock option agreement granting the option, or (b) in accordance with a schedule related to the date of the grant of the option, the date of first employment, or such other date as may be set by the Compensation Committee. Generally, options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan are exercisable within five years after the date of grant and vest over the period as follows: 25 % vesting on the grant date and the remaining balance vesting in equal installments on the next three succeeding anniversaries of the grant date. The share-based compensation will be recognized in terms of the grade method on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 2017 Employee Plan).

During the third quarter of Fiscal 2023, 40,000 stock options were granted under the 2017 Employee Plan. There were 5,000 stock options exercised during the nine -month period ended March 31, 2023. The Company recognized $ 70 and $ 124 in stock-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023.

During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, there were 40,500 stock options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan. There were 41,125 stock options exercised during the nine -month period ended March 31, 2022. The Company recognized $ 84 and $ 106 in stock-based compensation expenses during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2023, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan covering a total of 134,625 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $ 4.49 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 2.52 years.

As of March 31, 2022, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan covering a total of 170,500 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $ 4.81 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 2.24 years.

We also support our customers as their extended research & development arm in product designing, by leveraging the expert skills of our component engineers and design engineers.

Real Estate

Our real estate segment generates investment income from the investments made and rental revenue received from real estate that we purchased in Chongqing, China.

Critical Accounting Estimates & Policies

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions in applying our accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical experience and evaluate them on an ongoing basis to ensure that they remain reasonable under current conditions. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We discuss the development and selection of the critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors on a quarterly basis, and the Audit Committee has reviewed our related disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting estimates and policies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

The increase was partially offset by a drop in volume in other test plants due to the lower demand resulting from weakening of global semiconductor industry.

The revenue in the Testing segment from one customer accounted for 41.6% and 59.5% of our revenue in the Testing segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 44.3% and 62.1% of our total revenue in the Testing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The future revenue in the Testing segment will be affected by the demands of this customer if the customer base cannot be increased. Demand for testing services varies from country to country, depending on any changes taking place in the market and our customers’ forecasts. As it is challenging to forecast fluctuations in the market accurately, management believes it is necessary to maintain testing facilities in close proximity to the customers in order to make it convenient for them to send us their newly manufactured parts for testing and to enable us to maintain a share of the market.

Distribution Segment

Revenue in the Distribution segment was 12.0% and 14.2% as a percentage of total revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, a decrease of 20.5% and 10.7%, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2022. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $2,441 to $1,179 and by $3,183 to $4,855 from $3,620 and $8,038 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2022. The decrease is mainly due to inventory adjustments made by our end customers who are currently carrying excess inventory, due to which demand is weak and deliveries are being pushed out to next fiscal year.

The revenue in the Distribution segment from one customer accounted for 66.8% and 82.2% of our revenue in the Distribution segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 78.7% and 77.9% of our total revenue in the Distribution segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Demand for the Distribution segment varies depending on the demand for our customers’ products, the changes taking place in the market, and our customers’ forecasts.  Hence it is difficult to forecast fluctuations in the market accurately.

Real Estate Segment

The Real Estate segment revenue decreased to $3 and $15 from $4 and $23 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2022.

Uncertainties and Remedies

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance, such as the constantly changing nature of technology, specific requirements from the customer, decline in demand for certain types of burn-in devices or equipment, decline in demand for testing services and fabrication services, and other similar factors. One factor that influences uncertainty is the highly competitive nature of the semiconductor industry. Another is that some customers are unable to provide a forecast of the products required in the upcoming weeks; hence it is difficult to plan for the resources needed to meet these customers’ requirements due to short lead time and last-minute order confirmation. This will normally result in a lower margin for these products as it is more expensive to purchase materials in a short time frame.  However, the Company has taken certain actions and formulated certain plans to deal with and to help mitigate these unpredictable factors.  For example, in order to meet manufacturing customers’ demands upon short notice, the Company maintains higher inventories but continues to work closely with its customers to avoid stockpiling.  We believe that we have improved customer service through our efforts to keep our staff up to date on the newest technology and stressing the importance of understanding and meeting the stringent requirements of our customers. Finally, the Company is exploring new markets and products, looking for new customers, and upgrading and improving burn-in technology while at the same time searching for improved testing methods for higher technology chips.

The Company’s primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales and operating expense in its subsidiaries. Strengthening of the United States dollar (“U.S. Dollar”) relative to foreign currencies adversely affects the U.S. Dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, and generally leads the Company to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for the Company’s products. Margins on sales of the Company’s products in foreign countries and on sales of products that include components obtained from foreign suppliers could be materially adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In some circumstances, for competitive or other reasons, the Company may decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the U.S. Dollar’s strengthening, or at all, which would adversely affect the U.S. Dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings. Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar, while generally beneficial to the Company’s foreign currency denominated sales and earnings, could cause the Company to reduce international pricing, thereby limiting the benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase the Company’s cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

As of March 2023, although we have seen improvements in both our operations and those of our suppliers, we may continue to experience supply shortages as well as inflationary cost pressures in at least the near term. Risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain challenges, and inflationary pressures may continue to negatively impact our revenue and gross margin. We continue to monitor and evaluate the business impact to react proactively.

On August 9, 2022, the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 (CHIPS Act) was enacted in the United States. The CHIPS Act will provide financial incentives to the semiconductor industry which are primarily directed at manufacturing activities within the United States. We continue to evaluate the business impact and potential opportunities related to the CHIPS Act. As of date, we do not see any direct effect of the CHIPS Act on the Company in the foreseeable future.

There are legal and operational risks associated with having operations in China. These risks could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock or could limit or hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. In recent past, the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”) government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement.

The Company and its subsidiaries do not have any variable interest entities based in China. Our business primarily consists of semiconductor testing and burn-in services for the automotive industry, avionics, and others. Our businesses are not impacted by anti-monopoly policies, variable interest entities policies, or data security policies, nor are our businesses subject to extraordinary oversight from the Chinese government.

The decrease was mainly contributed by a negative foreign currency impact in the second quarter of Fiscal 2023 and the absence of one-time commission income that was earned in the same period in Fiscal 2022.

37

Our net income is impacted by the overall strengthening or weakening of the US dollars since the functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is not the U.S. Dollars. During the second quarter in Fiscal 2023, exchange rate movement negatively impacted our net income due to the strengthening of Singapore dollars against the U.S. Dollar which was partially offset by the exchange gain that arose in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Financial Condition

During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, total assets increased by $1,953 to $45,374 compared to $43,421 as of June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in inventories, cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, and property, plant and equipment, partially offset by decrease in trade receivables, other receivables and prepaid expenses.

Cash and cash equivalents were $8,430 as at March 31, 2023, reflecting an increase of $732 from $7,698 as at June 30, 2022, primarily due to increased collections from customers.

Short-term deposits and restricted term deposits were $8,220 as at March 31, 2023, reflecting an increase of $1,122 from $7,098 as at June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased placement of term deposits.

As at March 31, 2023, the trade accounts receivable balance decreased by $588 to $11,004, from $11,592 as at June 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in overall revenue of all entities on a consolidated basis in the third quarter of Fiscal 2023. The number of days’ sales outstanding in accounts receivables for the Group was 87 days and 81 days at the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2023 and the end of Fiscal 2022, respectively.

Prepaid expenses were $731 as at March 31, 2023 compared to $1,215 as at June 30, 2022. This was mainly due to the asset capitalization of down payments made for the purchase of equipment in the China operation.

Investment properties (net) in China was $517 as at March 31, 2023 and $585 as at June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2023.

Property, plant and equipment increased by $1,506 from $8,481 as at June 30, 2022, to $9,987 as at March 31, 2023, mainly due to the acquisition of new property, plant and equipment in the China operations.

Other assets increased by $95 to $232 as at March 31, 2023 compared to $137 as at June 30, 2022.  This was primarily due to rental deposits and foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2023.

Lines of credit was $107 as at March 31, 2023 as compared to $929 as at June 30, 2022. This was due to lower utilization of the lines of credit in the Singapore Operations as of March 31, 2023.

Accounts payable decreased by $566 to $1,835 as at March 31, 2023 as compared to $2,401 as at June 30, 2022 which was in line with the decrease in sales.

Accrued expense increased by $566 to $6,570 as at March 31, 2023, as compared to $6,004 as at June 30, 2022. The increase in accrued expense was mainly due to an increase in accruals relating to acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the China operations, and increase in contract liabilities in Singapore operation.

Bank loans payable decreased by $177 to $1,567 as at March 31, 2023, as compared to $1,744 as of June 30, 2022. This was due to the repayments made in the Malaysia operations.

Finance leases decreased by $91 to $146 as at March 31, 2023, as compared to $237 as at June 30, 2022. This was due to the repayments made in the Singapore and Malaysia operations.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and the corresponding lease liability decreased by $93 to $3,059 as at March 31, 2023, as compared to $3,152 as at June 30, 2022. This was due to the repayment made and the operating lease expenses charged for the period.

40

Other non-current liabilities increased by $924 to $952 as at March 31, 2023, as compared to $28 as at June 30, 2022.

Net cash provided by investing activities decreased by $4,717 to an outflow of $4,179 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, from an inflow of $538 for the same period of Fiscal 2022.  The increase in cash outflow was primarily due to an additions to property, plant and equipment of $2,933..
