Diversified paper products manufacturer IT Tech Packaging has reported a net loss of $10m, or $1.0 per diluted share, in financial year 2023 (FY23), compared to $16.6m, or $1.7 per diluted share, in FY22.
For the year ending 31 December 2023, the company witnessed a decline in total revenue, which dropped by 13.76% to approximately $86.55m.
The decline was primarily attributed to a reduction in the average selling price of corrugating medium paper (CMP), although this was partially offset by an increase in sales volume in CMP and offset printing paper.
IT posted a gross profit of $1m in FY23, down by 78.97% from the previous year’s figure of approximately $4.75m. Overall gross margin also decreased by 3.6% year-on-year (YoY) to 1.2%.
Its loss from operations was about $9.58m in FY23. Operating loss margin fell 5.8% YoY to 11.1%.
The company recorded earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation EBITDA of approximately $5.61m over the year, from $10.96m in FY22.
