Yinghe Technology answers investors' questions on e-cigarette market plans, focusing on overseas operations and new brand promotion.

Recently, Shenzhen Stock Exchange-listed company Yinghe Technology answered investors' questions on an interactive platform.

 

Sikary has No Plan to Go Public, MEMERS to Promote in Key Markets

 

An investor inquired about whether the company's e-cigarette products are listed in the domestic market, what the policy threshold is for domestic listing, and the long-term planning for the domestic market.

 

In response, Yinghe Technology stated that its holding subsidiary, Shenzhen Sikary Technology Co., Ltd., has been engaged in the e-cigarette business. Since 2022, Sikary has been focused on developing its own brand business and has achieved good development in the UK and other European countries. However, at present, the main focus is on overseas markets, and Sikary currently has no plans to go public.

 

Another investor inquired about the progress of the company's new brand, MEMERS, in developing in the US market.

 

Yinghe Technology responded by stating that MEMERS is a new brand recently launched by Sikary, with plans to promote and sell in select key global markets, while also warning investors to be cautious of potential risks.

As for the investor's concerns about the sales of e-cigarettes in China and the company's plans for the upcoming year, Yinghe Technology mentioned once again that its subsidiary, Sikary, has been heavily developing its own brand business since 2022, primarily operating in overseas markets with no mention of domestic sales plans.

 

What is the New Brand MEMERS?

 

It is worth mentioning that in an article introducing MEMERS, it is stated that MEMERS is inspired by internet "MEME" culture, embodying enjoyment, creativity, and social engagement. It is mentioned that "MEMERS VAPE is not just an e-cigarette brand; it is a cultural bridge connecting different individuals."

 

It made its debut at the TPE in the United States from January 31 to February 2, 2024, where it showcased two products: Switcher S20000 and Melody ME18000. Later, from March 23 to 25, it also participated in the VAPEXPO exhibition in Paris.

 

According to available information, SWITCHER S22000 is a disposable product that can accommodate two 12ml pods separately, providing approximately 22,000 puffs in total, and it also offers a dual flavor version. Another product, Melody ME18000, has no publicly available information.

 

According to information from YingHe Technology, Sikary has no plans to list domestically, and the MEMERS brand plans to promote its products in key markets.

MEMERS plans to launch a series of innovative products in the first and second quarters of 2024, including disposable, open, and closed systems.

 

The article mentions, "These products, especially those utilizing artificial intelligence technology, are expected to completely change the e-cigarette experience."

 

According to findings by YingHe Technology, artificial intelligence refers to the "HiSMK" e-cigarette industry artificial intelligence knowledge graph developed by SKE. It is claimed that this platform, supported by AI technology, interacts with users, engages in e-cigarette cultural exchange and services, and utilizes AI big models to continuously evolve consumer demand, ultimately realizing the full-chain functionality from consumer ideas to consumers (I2C).

 

Additionally, according to a message from the MEMERS official website on April 9, Memersvape has launched a disposable e-cigarette Memers M18000 with 18,000 puffs. According to YingHe Technology's findings on Vapehopping, a professional e-cigarette online store targeting the U.S. market, the product is listed as "COMING SOON."

 

YingHe Technology: Sikary has no plans to list domestically, and the MEMERS brand plans to promote its products in key markets.

STIIIZY Redesign Fails to Escape PAX Labs Patent Import Ban as Section 337 Case Also Involves China ALD
STIIIZY Redesign Fails to Escape PAX Labs Patent Import Ban as Section 337 Case Also Involves China ALD
U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled that STIIIZY had not shown that the redesigned cannabis-vape products covered by its latest request fall outside an ITC limited exclusion order tied to PAX Labs patents. CBP accepted some of STIIIZY’s claim-construction and non-infringement arguments, but the company did not address two additional claims in the same patent. Earlier STIIIZY redesigned cartridges and certain associated components imported with them had received separate CBP clearance.

Philippines Weighs Unified Vape Tax as Lawmakers Back Risk-Based Rates and Government Seeks to Fill ₱66 Billion Revenue Gap
Philippines Weighs Unified Vape Tax as Lawmakers Back Risk-Based Rates and Government Seeks to Fill ₱66 Billion Revenue Gap
Philippine lawmakers are considering an overhaul of the country's vape excise-tax regime to eliminate the wide gap between taxes on nicotine salt and freebase nicotine liquids and reduce incentives for misdeclaration. House Bill 5364, filed by Rep. Rufus Rodriguez and Rep. Maximo Rodriguez Jr., would impose a unified ₱10-per-milliliter tax on vapor products, with 5% annual increases beginning in 2027. Rodriguez says the proposal could generate an average ₱6 billion in annual collections from 2027 through 2030. The debate comes as the Philippine government considers tobacco, vape and other health-tax reforms to help offset around ₱66 billion in revenue expected to be forgone under a proposed tax-relief package.

Exclusive Analysis | Smoore H1 Revenue Rises 19.9% Amid Growth Concentration, Profit Pressure and Slowing Momentum
Smoore’s first-half 2026 revenue rose 19.9%, but the results revealed growing structural risks beneath the headline growth. Heat-not-burn contributed about 61% of incremental revenue and remains driven largely by one core customer, while traditional vaping markets diverged, own-brand growth slowed and China enterprise revenue declined further. Gross profit and adjusted profit lagged revenue growth, while second-quarter revenue growth slowed to about 1.9%, putting greater focus on the quality, concentration and sustainability of Smoore’s expansion.
