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 and Russia, the war between Israel and Hamas; 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.

Restricted deposits of $762 as at December 31, 2023 are classified as current assets as they relate to short-term trade financing. On the other hand, restricted deposits of $1,778 as at December 31, 2023 are classified as non-current assets as they relate to long-term obligations and will become unrestricted only upon discharge of the obligations.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 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, 2023 (“Fiscal 2023”). The Company’s operating results are presented based on the translation of foreign currencies using the respective quarter’s average exchange rate.

The results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year ending June 30, 2024.

Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. Among the more significant estimates included in these consolidated financial statements are the estimated allowance for credit losses on account receivables, reserve for obsolete inventory, impairments, provision of income tax, stock options and the deferred income tax asset allowance. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (“ASC Topic 326”) 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. This guidance modifies the impairment model for certain financial assets by requiring use of an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter in fiscal 2024 under the modified retrospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated condensed financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense. This standard update is effective for Company beginning in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025 and interim period reports beginning in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. Early adoption is permitted on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on segment disclosure.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures about income tax expense. This standard update is effective for Company beginning in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. Early adoption is permitted on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on annual income tax disclosures.

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

TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES

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.

The allowance for trade receivable represents management’s expected credit losses in our trade receivables as of the date of the financial statements. The allowance provides for probable losses that have been identified with specific customer relationships and for probable losses believed to be inherent in the trade receivables, but that have not been specifically identified.

The following table represents the changes in the allowance for expected credit losses:

Rental Property I - MaoYe Property

During 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 lease agreement was entered into on February 1, 2023 for a period of 4 years at a monthly rate of RMB14 , or approximately $ 2 , after termination of the previous agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, monthly rental will increase by 5% each year.

Property purchased from MaoYe generated a rental income of $ 6 and $ 12 during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 2 and $ 8 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Depreciation expense for MaoYe was $ 4 and $ 8 during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 4 and $ 8 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Rental Property II - JiangHuai

During the year ended June 30, 2010 (“Fiscal 2010”), TTCQ purchased eight units of commercial property in Chongqing, China from Chongqing JiangHuai Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“JiangHuai”) for a total purchase price of RMB 3,600 , or approximately $ 580 . As of December 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 current economic situation is likely to cause delays in court to consummate the acquisition of properties.

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

Depreciation expense for JiangHuai was $ 6 and $ 12 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 7 and $ 14 for the same period in last Fiscal 2023.

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.

TTCQ is actively searching for tenants to occupy the commercial properties, which are vacant as of the date of this Report.

Properties purchased from FuLi generated a rental income of $ Nil and $ 1 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 2 and $ 4 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Depreciation expense for FuLi was $ 7 and $ 14 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 7 and $ 15 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Summary

Total rental income for all investment properties in China was $ 6 and $ 13 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 4 and $ 12 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Depreciation expense for all investment properties in China were $ 17 and $ 34 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 18 and $ 36 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

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 RMB5,000 in cash upon signing of the Agreement, with a remaining fee of RMB5,000 payable upon fulfilment of certain conditions in accordance with the Agreement. The Company further reduced its investment by RMB137 , 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 therefor. The Company recognized a disposal based on the recorded net book value of RMB5,000 , 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 RMB5,000 , or approximately $ 722 , as disclosed in Note 5, plus the interest receivable on long-term loan receivable of RMB1,250 , or approximately $ 180 , and impairment on interest of RMB906 , or approximately $ 131 .

The shop lots are to be delivered to TTCQ upon completion of the construction of the shop lots in Singapore Themed Resort Project. The initial targeted date of completion was in Fiscal 2017. However, progress has been delayed as the developer is currently undergoing an asset reorganization process, to re-negotiate with its 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 Singapore Theme Resort Project in Chongqing, China. The Company elected to take this 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 December 31, 2023.

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 consolidated financial statements.

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 the primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

Corporate expenses are allocated to the four segments on a combination of factors involving revenue, manpower costs and fixed assets investments, except the Malaysia and China operations, which is calculated based on actual sales. The following segment information table includes segment operating income or loss after including corporate expense allocated to the segments, which gets eliminated in the consolidation.

Management is currently evaluating the ongoing contributions of each of its business segments to its current and future revenue and prospects, including its testing segment. As a result, it may divest one or more business segments in the future, including its testing segment, to enable management to concentrate on segments where it anticipates opportunities for future revenue growth, thereby maximizing shareholder value.

Government grant

$ 4 $ 21 $ 77 $ 42

In the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company received government grants amounting to $ 4 , related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government. During the same period in 2022, the Company received government grants amounting to $ 21 , $ 17 of which was an incentive from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment, and the remaining $ 4 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

In the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company received government grants amounting to $ 77 , $ 16 of which was an incentive from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment, and the $ 57 from the U.S. government related to Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”). During the same period in 2022, the Company received government grants amounting to $ 42 , with $ 10 from the Singapore government for Covid-19, $ 17 from the Singapore government for local resident recruitment and the remaining $ 15 related to capital expenditure subsidy received from the China government.

17.

INCOME TAX

The provision for income taxes has been determined based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which we operate. 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.

Due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs 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 $ 15 and $ 30 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 41 and $ 83 for the same period in fiscal 2023.

The Company's income tax expense was $ 95 and $ 132 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $ 241 and $ 466 for the same period in Fiscal 2023. Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) from continuing operations was 16.5 % and 29.5 % for the quarters ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The decrease of income tax expense was attributable to the following:

1.

The Singapore and Thailand operations incurred lower income tax due to lower income generated in period ended December 31,2023 compared to same period last fiscal year.

2.

The Company recognized lower GILTI expense due to lower income derived from controlled foreign corporation.

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 December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

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 all of the benefits of the federal, state, and foreign deductible differences. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established against portion of the deferred tax assets recorded in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions.

18.

REVENUE

The Company generates revenue primarily from three 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.

- 18 -

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.

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.

Majority of sales under the manufacturing segment include a 12-month warranty. The Company generally provides a limited warranty that our products comply with applicable specifications at the time of delivery. Under our standard terms and conditions of sale, liability for certain failures of product during a stated warranty period is usually limited to repair or replacement of defective parts. The Company has concluded that the warranty provided for standard products are assurance type warranties and are not separate performance obligations.

Customized products are generally more complex and, as a result, may contain unforeseen faults that could lead to additional costs for us, including increased servicing or the need to provide product modifications. Warranty provided for customized products are 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.

- 19 -

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.

STOCK OPTIONS

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;

A risk-free interest rate varying from 0.11 % to 4.59 % (2023: 0.11 % to 4.17 %);

No expected dividend payments; and

Expected volatility of 52.2 % to 73.85 % (2023: 47.3 % to 73.85 %).

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. In December 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2017 Employee Plan 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 no 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 first two quarters of Fiscal 2024, 48,000 stock options were granted under the 2017 Employee Plan. There were 63,875 stock options exercised during the six-month period ended December 31, 2023. The Company recognized $ 90 in stock-based compensation expense during the six months ended December 31, 2023.

During the first two quarters of Fiscal 2023, 25,000 stock options were granted under the 2017 Employee Plan. There were 5,000 stock options exercised during the six-month period ended December 31, 2022. The Company recognized $ 54 in stock-based compensation expense during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2023, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan covering a total of 88,250 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $ 5.59 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 3.08 years.

As of December 31, 2022, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan covering a total of 134,500 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $ 4.78 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 1.73 years.

2017 Directors Equity Incentive Plan

The 2017 Directors Plan permits the grant of options to its directors in the form of non-qualified options and restricted stock, and initially covered up to an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Common Stock. In September 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2017 Directors Plan 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 2020. In October 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2017 Directors Plan to increase the shares covered thereby from 600,000 shares to an aggregate of 900,000 shares, which amendment was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the annual meeting held in December 2023.

Under the 2017 Directors Plan, the exercise price of the non-qualified options is required to be 100% of the fair value of the underlying shares on the grant date. The options have five -year contractual terms and are exercisable immediately as of the grant date.

During the first two quarters of Fiscal 2024, the Company did not grant any options pursuant to the 2017 Directors Plan. There were no stock options exercised and the Company did not recognize any stock-based compensation expense during the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

As all the stock options granted under the 2017 Directors Plan vest immediately on the date of grant, there were no unvested stock options granted under the 2017 Directors Plan as of December 31, 2023, or December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2023, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Directors Plan covering a total of 420,000 shares of Common Stock. The weighted average exercise price was $ 4.91 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 2.41 years.

As of December 31, 2022, there were vested stock options granted under the 2017 Director Plan covering a total of 420,000 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $ 5.10 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 2.34 years.

LEASES

Company as Lessor

Operating leases under which the Company is the lessor arise from leasing the Company’s commercial real estate investment property to third parties. Initial lease terms generally range from 12 to 60 months. Depreciation expense for assets subject to operating leases is taken into account primarily on the straight-line method over a period of 20 years in amounts necessary to reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated residual value. Depreciation expense relating to the property held as investments in operating leases was $ 34 and $ 38 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Future minimum rental income in China and Thailand to be received from Fiscal 2024 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2027 (“Fiscal 2027”) on non-cancelable operating leases is contractually due as follows as of December 31, 2023:

TRIO-TECH INTERNATIONAL AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

Overview

The following should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item I above and with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes, the information under the headings Management s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 ( Fiscal 2023 ).

Trio-Tech International (“TTI”) was incorporated in 1958 under the laws of the State of California. As used herein, the term “Trio-Tech” or “Company” or “we” or “us” or “Registrant” includes Trio-Tech International and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise indicates. Our mailing address and executive offices are located at Block 1008 Toa Payoh North, Unit 03-09 Singapore 318996, and our telephone number is (65) 6265 3300.

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 Fiscal 2023. Refer to Note 1 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details. In addition, please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2023 for a complete description of our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Revenue for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, was $12,202 and $22,168, respectively, a decrease of $188 and $2,161, respectively, when compared to the revenue of $12,390 and $24,329 for the same period of Fiscal 2023. As a percentage, revenue decreased by 1.5% and 8.9% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to revenue for the same period of Fiscal 2023.

Revenue within our four current segments for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, is discussed below.

Manufacturing Segment

Revenue in the Manufacturing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 39.3% and 34.6% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, a decrease of 1.4% and 0.9% of total revenue when compared to 40.7% and 35.5% in the same period of Fiscal 2023. The revenue decreased by $254 to $4,790 from $5,044 and decreased by $954 to $7,675 from $8,629 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively.

Revenue in the Manufacturing segment has been on a downward trend since the beginning of the calendar year 2023 due to a decline in semiconductor industry capital spending. Demand recovery was noted in the first quarter of Fiscal 2024, resulting in a strong backlog in the Manufacturing segment. Part of these orders has been delivered in the quarter ended December 31, 2023, and the balance is expected to be delivered in the next two quarters.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, one customer contributed 26.5% and 24.0%, respectively, to the total Manufacturing segment revenue.

Testing Segment

Revenue in the Testing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 38.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, representing a decrease of 7.5% compared to 45.6% in the same period of Fiscal 2023. Revenue in the Testing segment was 44.2% as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 5.2% compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023. Total revenue decreased by $1,002 and $2,202 to $4,646 and $9,810 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of Fiscal 2023.

The decrease in revenue in the Testing segment reflects the weak demand environment in the semiconductor industry in calendar year 2023.

The revenue in the Testing segment from one customer accounted for 34.1% and 40.9% of our revenue in the Testing segment for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 34.9% and 45.6% of our total revenue in the Testing segment for the six months ended December 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 22.6% and 21.1% as a percentage of total revenue for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, an increase of 8.9% and 6.0%, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023. Total revenue increased by $1,066 to $2,760 and increased by $994 to $4,670 from $1,694 and $3,676 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023.

- 30 -

In the Distribution segment, there has been a demand recovery in the electronics components and display products from our customers compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023.

The revenue in the Distribution segment from one customer accounted for 84.7% and 78.9% of our revenue in the Distribution segment for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 84.0% and 82.5% of our total revenue in the Distribution segment for the six months ended December 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

Revenue increased to $6 and $13 from $4 and $12 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023. Our real estate (“Real Estate”) segment saw an increase in rental income due to occupancy in MaoYe properties.

Uncertainties and Remedies

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance, such as the changing nature of technology, specific customer requirements, decline in demand for certain types of burn-in devices or equipment, decline in demand for testing services and fabrication services, and other factors. One factor that influences uncertainty is the highly competitive nature of the semiconductor industry. Additionally, certain customers are unable to provide a forecast of the products required in the upcoming weeks, rendering it, difficult to plan adequate resources needed to meet these customers’ requirements because of short lead time and last-minute order confirmation. This will normally result in a lower margin for these products as it is often 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, 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 December 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 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 U.S. 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.

Overall Gross Margin

Overall gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased by 3.5% to 23.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from 26.9% for the same period of Fiscal 2023. Gross profits decreased by $481 to $2,854 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $3,335 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the Manufacturing segment increased marginally by 1% to 24.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 23.7% for the same period in Fiscal 2023. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the Manufacturing segment for the three months ended December 31, 2023, was $1,181, indicating a decrease of $14, compared to $1,195 in the same period in Fiscal 2023. Gross profit margin as a percentage increased despite a decline in revenue due to a favourable sales mix.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the Testing segment decreased by 8.3% to 25.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 33.7% in the same period in Fiscal 2023. The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was mainly due to lower volume across all test operations. A significant portion of the cost of sales in Testing segment are fixed costs. As the demand for services and factory utilization decrease, the fixed costs are spread over the decreased output, which decreases the gross profit margin. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the Testing segment decreased by $719 to $1,182 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $1,901 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Gross profit margin of the Distribution segment is not only affected by the market price of the products we distribute, but also the mix of products we distribute, which frequently changes because of fluctuations in market demand. Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the Distribution segment increased by 3.4% to 18.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from 14.9% in the same period in Fiscal 2023. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the Distribution segment for the three months ended December 31, 2023, was $504, indicating an increase of $251, compared to $253 in the same period in Fiscal 2023. The strong demand for electronics components and display products from our customers has contributed to the increase of gross profit margin.

In absolute dollar amounts, gross loss in the Real Estate segment was $13 for three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $14 for the same period in Fiscal 2023.

Overall Gross Margin

Overall gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased by 4.4% to 24.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 28.6% in the same period of Fiscal 2023.

Gross profit in absolute value decreased by $238 to $2,017 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to $2,255 for the same period of Fiscal 2023. The gross profit decrease was primarily due to a decrease in Manufacturing segment revenue in the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the Testing segment decreased by 8.4% to 26.1% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, from 34.5% in the same period of Fiscal 2023. Gross profit in the Testing segment decreased by $1,577 to $2,562 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, from $4,139 for the same period of Fiscal 2023 due to lower margins in the Testing segment resulting from lower demand. The gross margin was negatively impacted by the decrease in revenue across all test operations where a significant portion of our cost of goods sold are fixed, and as the demand for services and factory utilization decrease, the fixed costs are spread over the decreased output, which reduces the gross profit margin.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the Distribution segment was 17.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 16.0% in the same period of Fiscal 2023. Gross profit in the Distribution segment for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was $818, an increase of $231 compared to $587 in the same period of Fiscal 2023.

Financial Condition

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, total assets increased by $4,412 to $46,598 compared to $42,186 as of June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in inventories, cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, other assets, trade account receivable, deferred tax assets and restricted term deposits partially offset by a decrease in short term deposits, prepaid expense, assets held for sale and operating right-of-use assets.

Cash and cash equivalents were $10,966 at December 31, 2023, reflecting an increase of $3,383 from $7,583 as at June 30, 2023. This increase is attributed primarily due to cash generated from operations, and the collection of customer deposits in Singapore and China operations during the six months ended December 31, 2023.

Short-term deposits were $5,791 at December 31, 2023, reflecting a decrease of $836 from $6,627 as at June 30, 2023. The decrease was mainly attributed to the maturity of short-term deposits in the Singapore operation during the six months ended December 31, 2023 which is reflected in the cash and cash equivalents.

The trade accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2023 increased by $2,584 to $12,388, from $9,804 as at June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in revenue from customers that have longer credit term in Singapore, Malaysia and China operations. The number of days’ sales outstanding in accounts receivables for the group was 116 days and 82 days at the end of the second quarter of Fiscal 2024 and the end of Fiscal 2023, respectively.

Other receivables at December 31, 2023, were $1,029, an increase of $90, compared to $939 as at June 30, 2023. The increase was mainly due to higher advance payments made to suppliers and refundable services taxes in the Singapore operation.

Inventories at December 31, 2023, were $3,546, an increase of $1,395, compared to $2,151 as at June 30, 2023. The increase in inventories mainly attributed to the increased backlog in the Manufacturing segment attributable to our Singapore operations which are expected to be delivered over the next quarter.

Prepaid expense was $589 at December 31, 2023 compared to $105 at June 30, 2023. This was mainly due to the prepayment for insurance, rental and software license fee.

Investment properties’ net in China was $461 at December 31, 2023 and $474 as at June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023.

Property, plant and equipment decreased by $1,743 from $8,344 at June 30, 2023, to $6,601 as at December 31, 2023, mainly due to the depreciation charged for the period and the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023.

Other assets increased by $53 to $169 as at December 31, 2023 compared to $116 at June 30, 2023. This was primarily due to an increase in utilities deposits in our Singapore operation.

Lines of credit increased to $384 at December 31, 2023 as compared to $Nil as at June 30, 2023. The increase in lines of credit was due to a drawdown of the lines of credit in our Singapore operation for working capital purposes.

Accounts payable increased by $685 to $2,345 at December 31, 2023, compared to $1,660 at June 30, 2023 which was in line with the increase in inventories.

Accrued expense increased by $215 to $4,506 at December 31, 2023, as compared to $4,291 at June 30, 2023. The increase in accrued expense was mainly due to an increase in the accrued purchases.

Contract liabilities increased by $2,531 to $3,808 at December 31, 2023 as compared to $1,277 at June 30, 2023 due to the increase in customers’ deposits received in the Singapore and China operations.

- 40 -

Bank loans payable decreased by $215 to $1,137 at December 31, 2023, as compared to $1,352 as of June 30, 2023. The decrease in bank loans payable was mainly due to the repayment of bank loans in our Malaysia operations.

Finance leases decreased by $53 to $96 at December 31, 2023, as compared to $149 at June 30, 2023. This was due to the repayments of leases in our Singapore and Malaysia operations.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and the corresponding lease liability decreased by $250 to $2,359 at December 31, 2023, as compared to $2,609 at June 30, 2023. This was due to the repayment made and the operating lease expense charged for the period partially offset by a new lease arrangement entered by Malaysia operation.

Other non-current liabilities decreased by $564 to $30 as at December 31, 2022, as compared to $594 as at June 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in accruals relating to acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the China operations. The remaining accrual has a term of less than 12 months as at December 31, 2022, thereby being reclassified to current liabilities.

Liquidity Comparison

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $2,503 to an inflow of $1,276 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, from an inflow of $3,779 for the same period in Fiscal 2023. The decrease in net cash flow provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower net income generated of $693 compared to the same period of Fiscal 2023 and lower receipts from trade receivables and other receivables by $1,205, higher cash outflow for inventories by $521, lower prepaid expense by $459, and higher cash outflow from other non-current liabilities by $1,708. These are partially offset by lower cash outflow for accounts payables, accrued expense and contract liabilities of $1,809.

Net cash provided by investing activities increased by $4,564 to $1,136 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared with the same period in Fiscal 2023. The increase in cash inflow was primarily due to cash inflow of $634 from maturity of unrestricted term deposits coupled with lower capital expenditure of $3,836 for six months ended December 31, 2023.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was $280, representing an increase of $1,312, compared to cash outflow of $1,032 during the six months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was mainly attributable to increase in utilization of lines of credit by $476 during the six months ended December 31, 2022. Furthermore, the Company also incurred higher cash outflow for settling lines of credit in the same period of Fiscal 2023.

The Company filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which we may raise capital of $10,000,000 of any combination of securities (common stock, warrants, debt securities or units) for expansion of the Company’s testing capacity and working capital purposes if necessary.
