BEIJING, Feb. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leishen Energy Holding Co., Ltd. ("Leishen Energy," the "Company") (Nasdaq: LSE) announced its fiscal year 2025 financial results on January 30, 2026, reflecting a transition period: core operating performance weakened, but the Company strengthened its financial foundation through the IPO, reduced leverage, and improved liquidity. The Company's cash position and low debt levels provide flexibility to address operational challenges, while continued improvements in asset quality help mitigate financial risks.
Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Highlights
Total revenues declined from USD $63.5 million to USD $48.3 million due to the economic downturn, particularly the overall sluggishness in the oil and gas market, coupled with customers' cost pressures, weaker market demand, and the impact of the China-US trade tensions. The Company continues to expand into overseas markets and domestic natural gas trading businesses as part of its long-term growth strategy.
Gross profit fell from USD $16.0 million to USD $8.5 million due to revenue declines and persistent cost pressures.
Operating Expenses increased from USD $8.5 million to USD $10.2 million, largely due to higher selling and marketing costs associated with international market expansion, as well as increased research and development.
Net Income remains positive due to strong non-operating gains, including short-term investment income and gains from disposal of equity investments.
Net Income Attributable to Leishen Energy was USD $1.25 million, reflecting a decrease of USD $6.84 million year-over-year.
Segment Performance
1. Clean-Energy Equipment
-- Revenue from clean-energy equipment sales accounted for 45.7% of
our revenues. Revenue from clean-energy equipment sales decreased
by $11,742,904 from $33,816,111. The decrease was mainly due to a
decline in market demand, driven by the broader economic
downturn. In addition, intensified domestic competition and
customer cost-control measures led to a 10% to 40% reduction in
selling prices for certain standardized products. The Company is
actively pursuing the international market currently to drive
future growth.
2. Digitalization and Integration Equipment
-- Revenue was USD $2.73 million, reflecting a modest year-over-year
decline. Gross margin improved to 4.4% due to the implementation
of effective cost control initiatives.
3. New Energy Sales
-- Revenue from New Energy sales accounted for 40.4% our revenues.
The decrease was mainly due to the expiration of sales agreement
with a major client. We are actively pursuing renewal of the
agreement and expanding our customer base in the natural gas
trading business.
4. Oil and Gas Engineering Technical Services
-- Revenue was USD $4.0 million, representing for 8.2% of our
revenue.
-- This business segment is a key focus for the company, and the
Company will continue to invest in this area to expand the scope
and depth of the engineering and technical services. The Company
expects that this segment will account for an increasing share of
total revenue in the future.
Management Commentary
Hongliang Li, Chief Executive Officer of Leishen Energy, stressed that, "Although our revenue and profitability declined during fiscal year 2025 due to macroeconomic challenges, including the global economic slowdown and China-U.S. trade tensions, we remain confident in our long-term competitiveness and strategic positioning. The fiscal year represented a period of transition rather than a reflection of our core capabilities. We are actively expanding our market presence and strengthening our operational resilience, and we believe our efforts will deliver improved performance in the coming year."
Zhiping Yu, CFO, commented: "We are actively pursuing growth in both domestic and international markets. Looking ahead, we plan to invest more in R&D and international collaboration to strengthen our fundamentals.

By prioritizing key growth areas, we are confident in our ability to enhance future financial performance."

strengthen the Company's patent portfolio, which currently
