The company stated that the change in operating income during the reporting period was mainly due to the mass production of new products, leading to an increase in operating income. However, due to reasons such as the new graphite heat dissipation module not meeting expectations, this resulted in a loss in performance.

 

Furthermore, the company provides research and development, manufacturing, and partial assembly services for precision metal and plastic structural components required for consumer electronics products, including HNB e-cigarette components, for internationally and domestically renowned clients in the consumer electronics field. This year, the shipments in the consumer electronics industry have slowed down, and the overall scale of the industry is stabilizing. However, the level of competition in the industry has not decreased at all, and the gross profit margin of products is still declining, with fluctuation risks remaining.

The Volume Illusion: Measuring the Future of Nicotine with the Tools of the Past
As next-generation nicotine products become economically central rather than marginal, traditional volume-based metrics are increasingly unable to explain consumption, risk, and value. Units designed for a cigarette-based economy struggle to describe systems defined by delivery speed, pharmacokinetics, and adaptive user behavior. Drawing on financial reporting, regulation, and nicotine science, a fundamental question: can the future of nicotine still be measured using the tools of its past?
