The C-REIT acquired from GDS a 100% equity interest in a project company which holds stabilized data center assets. The acquisition was funded by an IPO on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The units issued by the C-REIT in the IPO were 20% subscribed by GDS, 50% by cornerstone institutional investors in a pre-placement subject to lock-up commitments of between one to three years, and the remaining 30% through an institutional bookbuilding process and retail public offering which were heavily over-subscribed. The C-REIT issued 800,000,000 units in the IPO at an offering price of RMB3.00 per unit. The total gross proceeds received by the C-REIT was RMB2,400 million. The implied EV / EBITDA at the offering price was 16.9 times, based on projected EBITDA for 2026 of RMB141.8 million as stated in the offering memorandum. The implied dividend yield per unit at the offering price was 5.2 per cent, based on projected cash flow available for distribution for 2026 of RMB124.8 million as stated in the offering memorandum. On completion of the sale and purchase of the project company in late July 2025, GDS is entitled to receive total net cash proceeds of approximately RMB2,073 million net of income tax. GDS has de-consolidated the project company. The net debt and other liabilities (total liabilities net of current assets) were approximately RMB30 million at the time of deconsolidation. In conjunction with the sale, GDS concurrently reinvested RMB480 million for 20% of the C-REIT. The C-REIT started trading on the Shanghai Stock Exchange on August 8, 2025 under fund code taking into consideration the impact of the C-REIT transaction which was not included in its original guidance, the Company confirms that the previously provided guidance of total revenues for the year of 2025 of RMB11,290 – RMB11,590 million and Adjusted EBITDA of RMB5,190 – RMB5,390 million remain unchanged. The Company revises its guidance of total capex (investment cashflow) for the year of 2025 down from approximately RMB4,300 million to approximately RMB2,700 million. This comprises approximately RMB4,800 million of organic capex (which remains unchanged), less the net cash proceeds received to date of approximately RMB500 million from the ABS transaction (which was included in the original guidance), and less the net cash proceeds after reinvestment of approximately RMB1,600 million from the C-REIT transaction (which was not included in the original guidance). This forecast reflects the Company's preliminary view on the current business situation and market conditions, which are subject to will hold a conference call at 8:00 a.m. U.S. Eastern Time on August 20, 2025 (8:00 p.m. Beijing Time on August 20, 2025) to discuss financial results and answer questions from investors and analysts. Participants should complete online registration using the link provided below at least 15 minutes before the scheduled start time. Upon registration, participants will receive the conference call access information, including dial-in numbers, a personal PIN and an e-mail with detailed instructions to join the conference call. Participant Online Registration: A live and archived webcast of the conference call will be available on the Company's investor relations website at management and board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted GP and Adjusted GP margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating performance, establish budgets and develop operational goals for managing our business. We believe that the exclusion of the income and expenses eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted GP can provide useful and supplemental measures of our core operating performance. In particular, we believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure captures the trend in our operating performance by excluding from our operating results the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, operating lease cost relating to prepaid land use rights, accretion expenses for asset retirement costs and impairment losses of long-lived assets), other non-cash expenses (primarily share-based compensation expenses), and other income and expenses which we believe are not reflective of our operating performance (primarily gain or loss on deconsolidation of subsidiaries and share of results of equity method investees), whereas the use of adjusted gross profit as a supplemental performance measure captures the trend in gross profit performance of our data centers in service by excluding from our gross profit the impact of asset base charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, operating lease cost relating to prepaid land use rights and accretion expenses for asset retirement costs) and other non-cash expenses (primarily share-based compensation expenses) included in cost of revenue. In addition, we exclude the income (loss) from discontinued operation from our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to measure our financial performance from continuing operations, which will be consistent with our future financial performance disclosure. We note that depreciation and amortization is a fixed cost which commences as soon as each data center enters service. However, it usually takes several years for new data centers to reach high levels of utilization and profitability. The Company incurs significant depreciation and amortization costs for its early stage data center assets. Accordingly, gross profit, which is a measure of profitability after taking into account depreciation and amortization, does not accurately reflect the Company's core operating performance. We also present these non-GAAP measures because we believe these non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as measures of the financial performance of companies in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, cash flows or our liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for gross profit, net income (loss), cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures instead of their nearest GAAP equivalent. First, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted GP, and Adjusted GP margin are not substitutes for gross profit, net income (loss), cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities or other consolidated statements of operation and cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Second, other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of these non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Finally, these non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect the impact of income (loss) from discontinued operations, net interest expenses, incomes tax benefits (expenses), depreciation and amortization, operating lease cost relating to prepaid land use rights, accretion expenses for asset retirement costs, share-based compensation expenses, gain from purchase price adjustment, impairment losses of long-lived assets, gain on deconsolidation of subsidiaries and share of results of equity method investees, each of which have been and may continue to be incurred in our business. We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We do not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial data, such as depreciation, amortization, accretion, share-based compensation, share of results of equity method investees and net income (loss); the impact of such data and related adjustments can be significant. As a result, we are not able to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking U.S. GAAP to forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort. Such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures include the forecast for Adjusted EBITDA in the section captioned 'Business Outlook' set forth in this press release. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned 'Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results' set forth at the end of this press announcement contains translations of certain RMB amounts into U.S. dollars ('USD') at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise stated, all translations from RMB to USD were made at the rate of RMB7.1636 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on June 30, 2025 in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. The Company makes no representation that the RMB or USD amounts referred could be converted into USD or RMB, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at unaudited financial information set out in this earnings release is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments. Adjustments to the consolidated financial statements may be identified when audit work has been performed for the Company's year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

Algorhythm Holdings Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Fort Lauderdale, FL, Aug. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Algorhythm Holdings, Inc. ('Algorhythm') (NASDAQ: RIME) – an AI technology holding company, announced today its results of operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Second Quarter Financial Highlights: Revenues increased to $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $2.4 million in the same period last year. Gross profit margin increased to 35.1% in the second quarter of 2025 from 13.3% in the same period of the prior year. Gross profit was approximately $1.0 million for the second quarter 2025. Total operating expenses decreased by $4.8 million to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $6.5 million in the same period last year. Net loss decreased by $5.3 million to $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $6.1 million in the same period last year. Cash on hand was $1.1 million as of June 30, 2025. Second Quarter Business Highlights: Algorhythm had a breakthrough quarter, marked by several major accomplishments since the beginning of the quarter. Most notable were the following: Algorhythm completed the acquisition of SMCB Solutions Private Ltd. ('SemiCab India'), the Indian managed services provider of SemiCab's AI logistics platform. Algorhythm completed the sale of its consumer karaoke subsidiary, Singing Machine, for $4.5 million, trimming approximately $4.0 million in liabilities and strengthening its balance sheet. SemiCab won five new contracts with leading multinational fast moving consumer goods ('FMCG') companies in India, expanding its footprint in the country's high-growth logistics market. Four existing contracts were expanded, with lanes and volumes increasing by 100%–200%, driving significant revenue growth potential. Fleet size increased from 140 to 450 trucks, positioning SemiCab to raise its annualized revenue run rate to $23 million. 'Our second quarter was marked by the achievement of several milestones that built upon the momentum that we gathered during our first quarter,' stated Gary Atkinson, Chief Executive Officer of Algorhythm. 'With the acquisition of SemiCab India and the sale of our Singing Machine business, we transformed Algorhythm Holdings into a high-growth, technology-focused AI distribution and logistics company while significantly reducing our cash burn and strengthening our balance sheet.' Mr. Atkinson continued, 'We are now a people-light, asset-light, nimble and a cutting-edge technology company serving some of the largest consumer packaged goods companies in the world. Our SemiCab business has grown almost 300% from an annualized revenue run rate (ARR) of approximately $2 million in January to more than $7 million today, and is still quickly growing. We plan to develop our pipeline of pending contracts with new transporters to grow our fleet to over 1,000 vehicles by the end of 2025 to keep pace with demand. As more shippers and carriers join our platform, the flywheel begins to spin—network effects grow, and opportunities to optimize truck utilization multiply, unlocking significant value.' Q2 2025 Financial Summary 'Revenue for Q2 increased to $2.7 million, up from $2.4 million in the same period last year, driven primarily by the contribution from our SemiCab India acquisition, even for a partial quarter,' said Alex Andre, Chief Financial Officer of Algorhythm. 'Net loss improved dramatically to $0.8 million, compared to a net loss of $6.1 million last year, reflecting a $3.9 million reduction in operating lease impairment and lower general and administrative expenses,' Mr. Andre continued. 'We expect net loss to continue trending lower over the next 12 months, primarily due to the sale of Singing Machine and the corresponding reduction in operating expenses which will be partially offset by strategic investments to accelerate growth in our SemiCab business.'
