Yinghe Technology's Subsidiary Sikary Misses Performance Target in 2022


According to the annual report, Sikary had committed to achieving a net profit of at least 200 million yuan in 2022, as per the "Capital Increase Agreement" and the "Supplementary Agreement". However, the company ended up with a profit of only 85.35 million yuan, failing to meet the performance commitment for the year. The annual report reveals that the reason for not achieving the performance commitment was due to changes in domestic policies.


In addition, according to the announcement by Yinghe Technology Co., Ltd., a controlling subsidiary of Shenzhen-based Yinghe Technology, Sikary will establish a wholly-owned subsidiary in Manchester, England, with a registered capital of £250,000 (approximately RMB 2 million), focusing on the UK and European markets.


According to sources, Manchester is renowned as a major hub for e-cigarette distribution in the United Kingdom. The city has attracted a substantial number of Chinese e-cigarette brands such as VAPORESSO, VOOPOO, ELFBAR, SMOK, and GEEK BAR.

UK HMRC Launches Vape Duty Stamps on October 1, Ushering in Supply-Chain Traceability as Chinese Exporters Face New Compliance Hurdles
HM Revenue & Customs put the UK's Vaping Products Duty and Vaping Duty Stamps Scheme into effect on October 1. All vaping liquids manufactured in or imported into the UK are now subject to duty at £2.20 per 10ml, regardless of nicotine content. The stamp regime will introduce digital functionality designed to provide traceability throughout the supply chain, with approved manufacturers, importers and warehousekeepers required to report product movements and retailers and consumers eventually able to scan stamps to verify authenticity. China exported $177 million of vape-related products to the UK in August, up 51.4% year over year, increasing the significance of the new compliance regime for China's Shenzhen-centered vape supply chain.
