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.

Australia Tobacco Tax Debate Spreads Within Labor as NSW Premier Minns Reaffirms Support for a Cut
Australia’s tobacco excise debate is increasingly exposing differences within the governing Labor Party. New South Wales Labor Premier Chris Minns reaffirmed on September 8 that he supports reducing tobacco excise, arguing that current tax settings are pushing consumers toward cheaper black-market cigarettes. Federal Health Minister Mark Butler continues to oppose an excise cut, while Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Assistant Treasurer Daniel Mulino have recently stopped short of ruling out future changes. The divergence follows the opposition Coalition’s proposal to cut tobacco excise by 80%.
