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.

Smoore Seeks to Toss CCELL Price-Fixing Claim as Court Weighs Vertical Distribution Versus Horizontal Conspiracy
Smoore Seeks to Toss CCELL Price-Fixing Claim as Court Weighs Vertical Distribution Versus Horizontal Conspiracy
Smoore and four authorized U.S. CCELL distributors are asking a California federal court to permanently dismiss a core antitrust claim brought by direct purchasers. Plaintiffs allege that Smoore coordinated minimum wholesale prices, customer allocation and limits on price competition among distributors, amounting to a per se unlawful horizontal conspiracy. The defendants say the alleged conduct reflects ordinary vertical relationships between a manufacturer and its distributors. The court previously dismissed a similar claim, and the latest dispute centers on whether the second amended complaint adds sufficient facts to establish a horizontal agreement.

Altria Smokeable Profit Rises 2.4% as Marlboro Share Falls and U.S. Discounts Gain
Altria’s second-quarter results show a U.S. nicotine market splitting across price, product and regulation.

PLUS expanded distribution but faced intensifying competition from ZYN and Velo. NJOY remained off the market as patent and regulatory hurdles delayed its return.

South Korea Vape Strategies Diverge as BAT Reconsiders Exit and PMI Takes VEEV to About 14,000 Stores
BAT Rothmans says it previously considered exiting South Korea's vaping market because of competitive pressure from unregulated products, but is now reassessing conditions following changes to the country's nicotine regulatory framework. Vuse and other BAT vaping products remain available through existing distribution channels. The statement followed a South Korean media report that interpreted BAT's broader withdrawal from selected Vapour markets as a full exit from South Korea. Meanwhile, Philip Morris International launched VEEV inPRIME in the country in June and began expanding distribution to around 14,000 convenience stores and other retail channels in July. The contrasting moves highlight differing investment strategies as South Korea's regulated vaping market evolves.
