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.
