  • Thank you, Daniel. Good morning or good evening, everyone. Total revenues for the quarter were USD 18.2 million, reflecting the continued impact of macroeconomic headwinds, geopolitical tensions affecting outbound travel from China and a significant surge in memory chip costs. Our uCloudlink 1.0 international data connectivity services remained under pressure from these factors.

    謝謝你,Daniel。各位早安或晚安。本季總營收為 1,820 萬美元,反映宏觀經濟逆風持續、中國出境旅遊受地緣政治緊張影響,以及記憶體晶片成本大幅飆升的顯著衝擊。我們的 uCloudlink 1.0 國際數據連線服務在上述因素下仍承受壓力。

  • However, this impact is increasingly being offset by the rapid scaling of our uCloudlink 2.0 local data connectivity business, which delivered strong growth, particularly from our GlocalMe IoT business. We expect our uCloudlink 2.0 and the new business lines to fully offset the continued contraction in our 1.0 international business by the third quarter as we continue to execute on our strategic priorities.

    然而,這些影響正逐步被我們 uCloudlink 2.0 本地數據連線業務的快速擴張所抵消,該業務實現強勁成長,尤其來自 GlocalMe IoT 業務。隨著我們持續落實策略重點,我們預期 uCloudlink 2.0 及新業務線將在第三季完全抵消 1.0 國際業務持續收縮的影響。

  • We continue to see strong momentum across our new product portfolio during the second quarter. GlocalMe IoT and UniCord Pro, in particular, gained solid traction with revenue contribution steadily increasing as the transition out of the initial market ramp-up phase, each with key strategic milestones during the quarter, positioning us well for accelerated commercialization going forward.

    第二季我們的新產品組合持續展現強勁動能。其中 GlocalMe IoT 與 UniCord Pro 尤其獲得良好市場牽引,隨著逐步走出初期市場導入爬坡階段,營收貢獻穩定提升;兩者在本季均達成關鍵策略里程碑,為未來加速商業化奠定良好基礎。

  • Across our new growth engine, revenues from GlocalMe IoT and SIM increased by 392.4% and 78% year-over-year, respectively. To drive early adoption and fuel market leadership, we maintained an elevated level of investment in market for the PetPhone and PetPhone ecosystem during the quarter.

    在我們新的成長引擎中,GlocalMe IoT 與 SIM 的營收分別年增 392.4% 與 78%。為推動早期採用並鞏固市場領先地位,本季我們維持對 PetPhone 及 PetPhone 生態系的較高市場投入水準。

  • I will now review the highlights for each of our key business lines. I will start with the GlocalMe IoT, which saw its installed base expanded further with month reorder now contributing meaningfully to revenue and business operating profitability on a consistent basis. In the second quarter, revenue from the GlocalMe IoT grew 392.4% year-over-year.

    接下來我將回顧各主要業務線的亮點。首先是 GlocalMe IoT,其裝機量進一步擴大,且月度續訂(reorder)已對營收與業務營運獲利能力帶來具意義的貢獻,並持續穩定發生。第二季 GlocalMe IoT 營收年增 392.4%。

  • Our total installed base reached 3.34 million units and MAU grew 210% year-over-year. User adoption is growing rapidly across key verticals as we further solidify our position in high-growth sectors, including in-car infotainment and security cameras.

    我們的總裝機量達到 334 萬台,月活躍用戶(MAU)年增 210%。隨著我們在車載資訊娛樂與安防攝影機等高成長領域進一步鞏固地位,用戶採用在關鍵垂直領域快速成長。

  • Moving on to our PetPhone ecosystem, which has undergone to a comprehensive upgrade into a dedicated pet AI agent. Building on the AI-powered plus social model, we pioneered in the first quarter. This marks a major step forward in functionality and performance with redefining AI-powered communication between humans and their pets.

    接著談到我們的 PetPhone 生態系,已完成全面升級,轉型為專屬的寵物 AI 代理(AI agent)。在第一季我們率先推出的「AI 驅動 + 社交」模式基礎上持續深化。這代表在功能與效能上的重大躍進,重新定義人與寵物之間的 AI 驅動溝通方式。

  • The agent can precisely sense pet's conditions and emotional state and intelligently support owners at every stage of care from prevention through real-time response and engagement, delivering a seamless pet care experience. This powerful agent creates enormous opportunities across pet healthy, veterinary care, pet safety and the pet data analytics, each of which we see a source of new value creation.

    該代理可精準感知寵物的身體狀況與情緒狀態,並在照護的每個階段——從預防到即時回應與互動——智慧化支援飼主,提供無縫的寵物照護體驗。這一強大的代理在寵物健康、獸醫照護、寵物安全以及寵物數據分析等領域創造龐大機會;我們認為每一項都是新的價值創造來源。

  • As we -- as consumer acceptance of AI pet services grows, we expect to build both valuable data asset and a leading position in pet AI. We are now expanding our pet AI capabilities across communication, safety and health management. On the market front, we have made significant progress in branding and promotional efforts, generating substantial external attention with select content pieces reach tens of millions of views in major platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, et cetera. We look forward to achieving even greater breakthrough in the second half of the year.

    隨著消費者對 AI 寵物服務的接受度提升,我們預期將建立具價值的數據資產,並在寵物 AI 領域取得領先地位。我們目前正將寵物 AI 能力擴展至溝通、安全與健康管理等面向。在市場端,我們在品牌與推廣方面取得顯著進展,並獲得大量外部關注;部分內容在 TikTok、Instagram 等主要平台的觀看次數達到數千萬。我們期待在下半年取得更大的突破。

  • Turning to our GlocalMe Life and SIM business lines where our strategy is beginning to generate results. GlocalMe Life Solutions saw DAU growth exploded, increasing by 801.6% year-over-year, reflecting strong market adoption of the new product line. GlocalMe SIM continued to steadily expand as well with DAU increasing 132% year-over-year.

    再來看 GlocalMe Life 與 SIM 兩條業務線,我們的策略已開始產生成果。GlocalMe Life Solutions 的日活躍用戶(DAU)成長爆發,年增 801.6%,反映市場對新產品線的強勁採用。GlocalMe SIM 亦持續穩健擴張,DAU 年增 132%。

  • Our eSIM solution is gaining strong momentum, leading the market in China and building market share steadily across East Asia and wider Asia Pacific region. Together, this result shows two product lines at a different stage of maturity with GlocalMe Life growing rapidly with exceptional triple-digit growth and GlocalMe SIM scaling consistently.

    我們的 eSIM 解決方案動能強勁,在中國市場領先,並在東亞及更廣泛的亞太地區穩步提升市占率。整體而言,這些結果顯示兩條產品線處於不同成熟階段:GlocalMe Life 以卓越的三位數增長快速成長,而 GlocalMe SIM 則持續穩定擴張。

  • Our premium MeowGo G50 Max is the world pioneer leading Sky-to-Ground integrated mobile connectivity hub, delivering seamless connectivity across satellite, flight and ground networks. It offers the broadest 5G countries coverage in the industry, spanning nearly 100 countries and have been reliable across a wide range of scenarios from the urban environment to in-flight travel.

    我們的高階產品 MeowGo G50 Max 是全球首創、領先的「天—空—地」一體化行動連線樞紐,可在衛星、飛行與地面網路間提供無縫連線。其提供業界最廣的 5G 國家覆蓋,涵蓋近 100 個國家,並在從城市環境到機上旅行等多種情境中展現可靠性。

  • Powered by our AI HyperConn technology, the G50 Max has built a market-leading position in the USD 500 plus premium MiFi segment and has set a new benchmark for premium mobile connectivity solutions. While our uCloudlink 1.0 international data connectivity business has been affected by macro headwind, this same condition has created new opportunities for the G50 Max and the premium solution, driving demand from the resilient, reliable connectivity in critical environments.

    在我們 AI HyperConn 技術驅動下,G50 Max 已在 500 美元以上的高階 MiFi 細分市場建立市場領先地位,並為高階行動連線解決方案樹立新標竿。儘管 uCloudlink 1.0 國際數據連線業務受到宏觀逆風影響,但同樣的環境也為 G50 Max 與高階解決方案創造新機會,推動在關鍵環境中對具韌性、可靠連線的需求。

  • We also made solid progress and created new and strong revenue with our newly launched 4G and 5G CPE product during the second quarter for local connectivity services. Both have demonstrated stable performance and successfully passed smaller batch market validation, receiving positive market feedback.

    我們亦取得了扎實進展,並於第二季透過新推出的 4G 與 5G CPE 產品,在本地連線服務方面創造了新的且強勁的營收來源。兩者皆展現穩定表現,並已成功通過小批量市場驗證,獲得正面的市場回饋。

  • Several large orders are currently under negotiation, and we expect to accelerate market deployment and drive stronger growth in Q3. We also achieved notable recognition during the quarter, winning the Customer Impact Award at the MVNOs World Awards in year 2026 and being shortlisted for Leading Consumer MVNO/Sub-Brand, further validating our technological leadership and market positioning.

    目前正就數筆大型訂單進行洽談,我們預期將於第三季加速市場部署並帶動更強勁的成長。我們亦於本季獲得顯著肯定,於 2026 年 MVNOs World Awards 榮獲「Customer Impact Award」,並入圍「Leading Consumer MVNO/Sub-Brand」,進一步驗證我們的技術領先地位與市場定位。

  • Looking ahead, we remain focused on strengthening operational management and cost discipline, with a clear priority on improving cash flow. Together, with the ongoing commercial progress of the PetPhone AI and social PetPhone, the ramp-up of MeowGo G50 Max and the continued expansion of GlocalMe IoT, CPE R50 and R55, we believe these efforts will position us to navigate the current market environment and emerge stronger.

    展望未來,我們將持續聚焦於強化營運管理與成本紀律,並明確以改善現金流為優先事項。同時,隨著 PetPhone AI 與社交 PetPhone 的商業化進展持續推進、MeowGo G50 Max 的放量爬坡,以及 GlocalMe IoT、CPE R50 與 R55 的持續擴張,我們相信這些努力將使我們能夠因應當前市場環境並以更強姿態脫穎而出。

  • We remain committed to bridging the digital divides in cross-border connectivity as well as the emotional distance between people and their pets, while creating long-term value for our shareholders. With the disciplined optimism in mind, we are confident that we have the right strategy in place to drive sustainable growth going forward. I will now turn the call over to Mr. Shi.

    我們仍致力於彌合跨境連線的數位落差,以及拉近人與其寵物之間的情感距離,同時為股東創造長期價值。秉持審慎且樂觀的態度,我們有信心已制定正確策略,以推動未來的可持續成長。接下來我將把電話會議交給施先生。

  • Thank you for taking my questions. I have two questions this morning. The first is about memory chips and sort of the supply chain and semiconductors in general. You cited here, which everyone has been seeing is memory chip cost increases. So what are you doing to ameliorate that? And are you seeing other issues in -- other supply chain issues in the semiconductor area as well?

    感謝讓我提問。我今天早上有兩個問題。第一個是關於記憶體晶片,以及供應鏈與半導體整體情況。你們在此提到、也是大家都看到的,是記憶體晶片成本上升。所以你們正在採取哪些措施來緩解?另外,你們是否也在半導體領域看到其他供應鏈問題?

  • Chaohui Chen - Chief Executive Officer, Director

    Chaohui Chen - Chief Executive Officer, Director

  • Yes, I think there are several impacts because I think the supply chain for chipset and AI volume demand for supply chain in China. For the memory chip, everyone know it's almost 5 to 10x increase. It impacts our sales price for our consumers -- our customers. So in the early quarter, we had -- we increased more storage, try to offset the price increasing first. That -- you can see that's why our cash flow was somewhat impact -- somehow impacted because we increased the memory chip storage first.

    是的,我認為有幾個層面的影響,因為我認為晶片組的供應鏈,以及中國 AI 量產需求對供應鏈的拉動。就記憶體晶片而言,大家都知道幾乎上漲了 5 到 10 倍。這會影響我們對消費者——也就是我們客戶——的銷售價格。因此在前幾個季度,我們先增加了更多庫存(更多儲存容量/記憶體晶片備貨),嘗試先抵消價格上漲。你們也可以看到,這就是為什麼我們的現金流在某種程度上受到影響——因為我們先增加了記憶體晶片的備貨。

  • And the second, you can see we have to cover some cost -- chipset costs increasing. I think also in the second half year, we -- just about several months later, we increased our sale price, but we have to consider I think the customer, I think, acceptance for the price. That's number two.

    第二點,你可以看到我們必須吸收部分成本——晶片組成本上升。我認為在下半年——大約幾個月之後——我們提高了售價,但我們必須考量客戶對價格的接受度。這是第二點。

  • And number three, and also, we have R&D revised for some large memory and expensive memory, we try to, I think, revise our hardware, try to minimize, I think, to reduce the memory requirements, it's number three.

    第三點,我們也在研發上做了調整,針對一些大容量且昂貴的記憶體,我們嘗試調整硬體設計,盡量降低記憶體需求,這是第三點。

  • And finally, and also we -- also like PCB, like all these components extend -- I think the period and the cost also is going up. I think, indeed, this year is worse in supply chain for our product, for like MiFi, like our PetPhone to the -- and our [pet care] to the customer.

    最後,像 PCB 等各種零組件,交期拉長——我認為週期延長且成本也在上升。我認為確實,今年我們產品的供應鏈情況更糟,像 MiFi、像我們的 PetPhone,以及我們的 [pet care] 產品交付給客戶方面。

  • My other question is about GlocalMe Life business. The -- here in the prepared remarks here, GlocalMe Life business revenue decreased year-over-year, but the average daily active users increased over the same period. So were they spending this money? I was wondering if you could explain why one is down, the other one is up.

    我另一個問題是關於 GlocalMe Life 業務。在你們的事先準備講稿中,GlocalMe Life 業務營收年減,但同期間平均日活躍用戶數卻增加。所以他們有在花錢嗎?我想請你們解釋一下,為什麼一個下降、另一個上升。

  • Yes, sure. Yes, as this second quarter's figures, the Life's revenues increased in two parts. One part is the hardware's Life delivery to our customer. So that hardware's -- the volume of hardware delivery in the second quarter is a little bit down a bit. So that account for the total revenues a little bit down. But we delivered Life products in the past series quarters on a stable growth volume.

    好的,當然可以。以第二季的數據來看,Life 的營收由兩部分構成。其中一部分是 Life 硬體交付給客戶。第二季硬體交付量略有下降。因此使得總營收略為下滑。但我們在過去幾個季度以穩定成長的交付量出貨 Life 產品。

  • And this Life product used to the local scenarios, local mobile broadband scenarios like our product charge cables that were very well welcome in Japan's local market. So the MAU figures reflect a cumulative active historical sold hardware of Life. So that cumulative MAU metrics has increased dramatically compared with last year. The two figures -- two metrics, one's revenue reflects the second quarter scenarios. The MAUs reflects the cumulative, the whole historical selling stories. Yes.

    而這個 Life 產品主要用於本地情境、本地行動寬頻情境,例如我們的充電線產品在日本本地市場非常受歡迎。因此,MAU 數據反映的是 Life 歷史累計已售硬體所帶來的累積活躍量。所以相較去年,這個累積 MAU 指標大幅增加。這兩個數字——兩個指標——其中營收反映的是第二季的情境。MAU 反映的是累積的、整體歷史銷售的存量。是的。

  • Yes. I have more comment about this because for Life, on this product, I think because I just mentioned, as you mentioned, the supply chain impact by the AI industry because of the memory chip and the PCB, et cetera. That's why in the first quarter, before the price increase, we asked our customers to give more order.

    是的。我還想補充一點,因為對於 Life 這個產品,我認為如我剛才提到、也如你所提到的,供應鏈受到 AI 產業影響,包含記憶體晶片與 PCB 等。因此在第一季、在漲價之前,我們請客戶下更多訂單。

  • And so far, I think this is why in the first quarter, we got more bigger order and the second quarter order is a little bit lower. In the second quarter, you can see the order is a little bit lower. That's because of the supply chain impact and the price increase. But the total first half year, we compared to the first half last year, it's increased dramatically.

    到目前為止,我認為這就是為什麼第一季我們拿到更大的訂單,而第二季的訂單略低一些。第二季你可以看到訂單稍微少一點。這是因為供應鏈影響以及漲價。但就上半年整體而言,與去年上半年相比,成長非常顯著。
