On behalf of the company, I would like to welcome everyone to our H1 2024 earnings conference call. Revenue for the live streaming e-commerce business segment came in at $43.4 million for the six months, modestly lower than the $44.6 million in revenue recorded for the six months of 2023. This slight decline was due to loss of a few major clients and a change in business strategy to secure a larger number of mid-tier clients to help to mitigate the risk of retaining major clients. We had engagements with more than 70 clients in the H1 of 2024, represents an increase of nearly 20 clients compared to the same period in 2023. Our majority-owned Kylin Cloud subsidiary provides turnkey livestreaming, marketing, and broadcasting services to consumer brand companies by matching consumer brand products with the appropriate hosts and influencers. We have a tremendous market opportunity ahead of us and believe that we have the resources, infrastructure, and team culture to achieve sustained growth in this B2C ecosystem. In an important strategic development for the company, we've recently announced that we're planning to enter the energy field in the Q3 of 2024, and are going to launch this business in Texas to meet the rapidly growing needs of of the computing power industry. We believe that our new positioning in the energy supply sector is extremely timely to meet the high expected demand for energy due to the growth of these sectors. With that, I would like to turn over the call to the company's Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Edmund Hen, who will discuss the company's H1 earnings results in more detail. Thank you so much. Thank you, Mr. Zhang. I will now move on to a more detailed discussion of our financial results for the six months ending June 30th, 2024. Revenue for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, was $43.5 million, a decrease of $1.1 million or 2.6% from $44.6 million for the same period of 2023. The decrease in revenue was due to the loss of a few of the livestreaming business major clients in the current period. This compelled a change in business strategy to focus on securing a large number of mid-tier clients to mitigate the risk associated with an over-concentration of major clients. In the H1 of 2024, we had business engagements with more than 70 clients, which represented an increase of nearly 20 clients compared to the same period of 2023. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, was $3.5 million. Decrease of $3.3 million, or 46.7% as compared to $6.8 million for the same period of 2023. The decrease in gross profit was due to the decrease in revenue and an increase in the cost of goods sold in the current period. For the H1 of 2023, gross profit margin was 8% for the live streaming e-commerce business, as compared to a gross profit margin of 15.3% for the H1 of 2023. Selling and distribution expenses for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, were $3.1 million. A decrease of $4 million, or 55%, 55.9% as compared to $7.1 million for the same period of 2023. The increase in selling and distribution expenses was due to decreased advertising and promotion expenses of $3.5 million and decreased commission expenses of $0.5 million. Administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, were $6.9 million. An increase of $1.3 million, or 22.3%-22.8%, as compared to $5.6 million for the same period of 2023. The increase in administrative expenses was due to an increase in stock compensation expenses of $0.8 million. $0.5 million increase in professional service expenses. Loss from continuing operations before taxation for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, was $6.5 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 19.3%, as compared to a loss from continuing operations before taxation of $5.5 million for the same period of 2023. The increase was due to the decrease in gross profit in the current period as compared to the same period of 2023, as well as an increase in administrative expenses, which was partly offset by a decrease in selling and distribution expenses. Loss per basic share and fully diluted share from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30th, 2024, were $0.6, as compared to loss per basic and fully diluted share of $3.38 for the same period of 2023. Turning to our balance sheet. As of June 30th, 2024, we had $2.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. An increase of $1.8 million, or 323.2% compared to $0.6 million as of December 31st, 2023. As of June 30th, 2024, working capital was $5.6 million, and the current ratio was 2.6 times. Shareholders' equity as of June 30th, 2024, was $18 million, an increase of $3.6 million, or 25.2% as compared to $14.4 million as of December 31st, 2023. Moving to our business outlook. We own a majority position of a livestreaming e-commerce business, Hainan Kylin Cloud Services Technology Co., Ltd., and aim to launch an energy supply business in the Q3 of 2024. Kylin cloud SaaS system, platforms strategic, strategically matches hosts and influencers to consumer brand products, which results in increased sales for those companies. In the last few years, livestreaming e-commerce has comprised an ever-increasing percentage of China's e-commerce sales, which we expect to continue in the year ahead, furthered by a consumer ecosystem that include a young demographic and their high usage rates of mobile devices. We believe that Kylin Cloud is unique in the livestreaming space since it utilizes advanced analytics that matches hosts and influencers to consumer brand products, which facilitates unique content for high conversion rates as compared to traditional e-commerce system. In the current period, the business strategy of the livestreaming business was modified to focus on securing a large number of mid-tier clients to mitigate the risk associated with an over-concentration of major clients. Since some of these new clients are still in beginning stage of collaboration, and their business volume has just started to grow, it will take time for the new mid-tiers clients to develop and increase their sales volume. In the H1 of 2024, the livestreaming business had a business engagement with more than seventy clients, which represented an increase of nearly 20 clients compared to the same period in 2023. In an important strategic development for the company, we recently announced plans to enter the energy field through the production of electricity using natural gas generators in Texas. This electricity would then be transmitted directly to rapidly growing computer center, who requires high amount of energy. Compared to conventional methods, this method eliminates immediate intermediate, intermediary steps like transmission to power grid and processing by public utilities, which will result in low energy losses and high efficiency. Given the strong market demand, the company believes it has a runway for significant growth in the near future. The business outlook reflects the company's current and preliminary views, and is based on the information currently available to us, which are subject to change and is subject to risks and uncertainties as well as risks and uncertainties identified in the company's public filings. At this point, we would like to open up the call to any questions pertaining to our H1, 2024 financial results. Operator, please. We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then one on your telephone keypad. If you're using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. If at any time your question has been addressed and you would like to withdraw your question, please press star then two. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. The first question comes from Steve Silver with Argus Research. Please go ahead. Thanks, operator, and thank you for taking my questions. I was hoping you could provide some color about how the company made the strategic decision to enter the energy supply field? All right, thank you for the questions. Let me begin by saying that the U.S. Energy Information projects that electricity demand in the United States will increase to record highs in 2024 and 2025, largely driven by demand from large-scale computing facilities. The IEA, as it is known, also said that global data center electricity demand is on its way to double from 2022 to 2026, with AI playing a major role in that increase. Most of us know that data centers support everything from financial transactions, to social media, to government operations. It is extremely energy intensive to train AI models. The IEA has predicted that in two years, data centers could consume the same amount of energy as Sweden or Germany. Data centers need a continuous and stable supply of energy to operate, and that's where we come in. Because we have developed such a model, we think that we're entering this market at exactly the right time to provide a cost-effective and stable means of providing electricity to data centers and those companies in need of computing power. Okay, that's helpful. Thank you so much. And one follow-up. You've mentioned being cost-effective in your model. Is there any detail you can provide about the business model in terms of how it's supposed to be cost-effective and designed to be a stable source of energy for your customers? All right, thank you so much. So we're located close to the natural gas production site, which allows us to minimize transportation costs and avoid the costs of compression, transportation and storage. Also, we strategically positioned close to our customers as well to greatly minimize any transportation costs there as well. Therefore, we can supply electricity to customers in a very cost-effective way. We closely monitor the market for natural gas and believe that we have a good model to project the right time to secure natural gas for our business. We currently own four generators that convert natural gas into electricity, and plan to launch this business in the Q4 of this year. Thank you very much. Thank you, Steve. Again, if you have a question, please press star, then one. This concludes our question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to David Rudnick for any closing remarks. Thank you, Drew. On behalf of the entire Antelope Enterprise management team, we'd like to thank all of you for your interest and participation on this call. This concludes Antelope Enterprise H1 2024 earnings call. Thank you very much. Conference has now- Thank you. The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation.
