Result of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2025
The following table presents OSR Holdings’ statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2025, and percentage change between the two periods:
| Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 | 2025 | Change $ | Change % | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net Sales: | 910,225 | 761,272 | -148,954 | -16% |
| Cost of Sales | 670,424 | 592,586 | -77,838 | -12% |
| Gross Profit | 239,802 | 168,686 | -71,116 | -30% |
| Expenses: | ||||
| Selling, general and administrative expenses | 3,542,330 | 3,086,512 | -455,818 | -13% |
| Operating loss | (3,302,528) | (2,917,826) | 384,702 | -12% |
| Other income (expense) | (52,834) | (8,474,988) | -8,422,154 | 15,941% |
| Profit (loss) before income taxes | (3,355,362) | (11,392,814) | -8,037,452 | 240% |
Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by $149 thousand, or 16%, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to the termination of relationship with a key RMC customer Penumbra in late 2024. OSR Holdings expects revenue to decrease in 2025 and possibly longer until RMC can replace the sales of Penumbra’s products by increasing other sales or securing additional products from other manufacturers.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by $78 thousand, or 12%, from the same period in 2024, in line with lower sales volume for RMC, after the termination of its relationship with Penumbra.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by $71 thousand, or 30%, from the same period in 2024. Gross margin percentage decreased from 26.3% to 22.2%, primarily due to KRW depreciation that led to higher costs of imported goods for RMC. In the meantime, the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service of Korea (“HIRA”) will officially increase the reimbursement amount by 2% from April 1, 2025. This is expected to partially offset the impact of unfavorable KRW exchange rates.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
OSR Holding’s SG&A expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2025, consisted mainly of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, retirement payment, benefits, bonus, and travel. Other SG&A expenses included amortization of intangible assets, research and development expenses, professional services fees, such as legal, audit, investor relations and press releases, non-income taxes, insurance costs, and employee recruiting and training costs. SG&A expenses decreased by 13% in the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $623 thousand in amortization expense, resulting from the change in the useful life of certain intangible assets to align with the useful life of other intangible assets. This benefit was partially offset by an increase in personnel-related expenses.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses
OSR Holding’s R&D expenses consisted primarily of development costs associated with our product candidates in pre-clinical and clinical trials, and related costs of salaries and contractors. R&D costs are expensed as incurred. OSR Holdings expects to incur and report R&D related expenses mainly from its subsidiaries actively engaged in R&D at an estimated amount of $2.5 million to $3.0 million per quarter beginning from the middle of 2025, which could potentially increase to $5.0 million to $6.0 million per quarter.
Operating Loss
Operating loss was $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $3.3 million in the same period of 2024. The slight improvement was primarily driven by a reduction in SG&A expenses, largely attributable to lower amortization expenses following a change in the useful lives of certain intangible assets. This benefit was partially offset by an increase in personnel-related expenses.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest income decreased from $5.5 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $4.3 thousand in the same period in 2025, a decrease of 22%. Interest expense increased by $2.9 thousand, or 21%, from $13.5 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2024, to $16.4 thousand in the same period in 2025, The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the addition of approximately $2.6 million in short-term corporate bonds, which were not outstanding during the same period of the prior year. Other income (gains on foreign currency exchange and foreign currency translation) decreased by $0.3 thousand, from $26.8 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $26.5 thousand for the same period in 2025. Other expenses increased significantly by $8.4 million, from $71.6 thousand to $8.5 million, primarily due to the one-time recognition of approximately $8.5 million in merger-related expenses associated with the business combination that closed on February 14, 2025.
Loss Before Income Taxes
Loss before income taxes increased by approximately $8.0 million from $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $11.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting the one-time recognition of $8.5 million in merger-related expenses mentioned above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
From inception through March 31, 2025, OSR Holdings has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from its operations. OSR Holdings’ operating loss was $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, OSR Holdings had an accumulated deficit of $30.6 million. OSR Holdings has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of common shares and convertible bonds as well as from bank loans, loans from affiliates and, to a lesser extent, from RMC product revenue. OSR Holdings had $1.6 million in cash and cash equivalents on March 31, 2025, which consisted primarily of bank deposits. OSR Holdings has incurred significant expenses in connection with the business combination and the Form S-4, which, together with other expenses, has reduced its available funds for operations, resulting in the need for immediate capital raising. In response, in February 2025, OSR Holdings entered into an equity line of credit agreement with an investor for up to $80 million, through which the Company expects to secure ongoing financing.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2025. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of our Sponsor a monthly fee of $7,500, for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on March 1, 2023 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation.
Chardan is entitled to a deferred underwriting commission of $2,070,000. Also, we have incurred deferred legal fees payable upon consummation of our initial business combination of approximately $1.25 million.
The holders of the founder shares, equity participation shares, placement units, and units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the registration rights agreement. These holders are entitled to make up to two demands, excluding short form registration demands, that we register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders will have “piggyback” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by us. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five and seven years, respectively, after the date of our prospectus issued in connection with our IPO and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates.
Market risk
As filed, 163 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Controls and procedures
As filed, 2,016 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025 because of the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below. A material weakness, as defined in the SEC regulations, is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
In light of these material weaknesses, we performed additional analyses as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.
Risk factors
As filed, 1,493 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.
In addition to the risk factors set forth below and the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on April 17, 2024 (or “2024 Annual Report”), in our prospectus dated February 9, 2023 (“IPO Prospectus”), and in the other reports we file with the SEC before making a decision to invest in our securities. These factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and capital position, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from our historical results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report or we could face liquidation. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described in our 2024 Annual Report, IPO Prospectus and other reports we filed with the SEC and below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” included in our 2024 Annual Report.
