“Periods of market uncertainty underscore the importance of a clear long-term vision and consistent execution,” said Larry Wu, Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “Our growth reflects a long-term strategy built around multiple drivers, including new product development, geographic expansion into markets such as Europe, broader sales channels through partnerships and strategic M&A, and new models that better serve our customers. Growth is not built in a single quarter – it is built over time with deliberate planning, patience, and follow-through that turn today’s opportunities into tomorrow’s value.”

“We remain committed to returning capital to our shareholders while building long-term sustainable value, with $115 million remaining under our current share repurchase authorization,” said Erica Wei, Chief Financial Officer. “We will continue to execute buybacks opportunistically, taking advantage of market volatility, and will consider a one-time special dividend if any authorization balances remain unused at the end of our three-year program in August 2029.”

Business Outlook

The Company expects its total revenues to be between $425 million and $450 million in the fourth quarter of 2026. This forecast reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change and cannot be predicted with reasonable accuracy as of the date hereof.

Share Repurchase Program

On August 13, 2025, the Board approved a share repurchase program which authorized the repurchase of its Class A ordinary share up to $111.0 million, effective August 17, 2025 for three years (the “2025 Program”). On August 5, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new $120.0 million share repurchase program (the “2026 Program”). The 2026 Program became effective on August 6, 2026 and will remain in effect for a period of three years, while the 2025 Program was terminated on the same date.

During the third quarter of 2026, we repurchased 491,831 of our Class A ordinary shares at a total consideration of approximately $17.7 million. Subsequent to the third quarter of 2026, the Company has repurchased an aggregate of 87,860 Class A ordinary shares in the open market at a total consideration of approximately $5.0 million pursuant to a repurchase plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act.

Under the share repurchase program, the Company may purchase its ordinary shares through various means, including open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, any combination thereof or other legally permissible means. The Company may effect repurchase transactions in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The number of shares repurchased and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with the Company’s working capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors.
