64、games publisher specialising in developing and publishing mainly tabletop games(including board games and miniature war games).We also started developing and launching mobile games since 2015.We publish both self-owned games and licensed games.We also distribute third-party tabletop games.We sell ou
65、r tabletop games mainly through crowd-funding platforms and to wholesalers.We also sell directly to end-users through online stores and through game conventions held once to twice a year.As at the date of this annual results announcement,we offer a total of 131 games,comprising 125 board games,three
66、 miniature war games,two mobile games and one computer game.For the financial year under review,our revenue was approximately US$37.4 million,decreasing from approximately US$45.1 million for the previous financial year.Total comprehensive loss for the year attributable to equity holders of the Comp
67、any was approximately US$3.0 million,decreasing from profit of approximately US$0.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2023.The loss for the financial year was mainly due to the decrease in sales as rising costs of living in key markets affected our customers ability to buy games.During the fina
68、ncial year under review,we launched four crowd-funding games,namely A Song of Ice&Fire:Tactics A Tabletop Miniatures Skirmish Game,God of War:The Board Game,Degenesis:Clan Wars and DC Super Heroes United,and raised approximately US$2.2 million,US$1.0 million,US$0.3 million and US$5.4 million,respect
69、ively.Long-term Strategies and OutlookIn light of the current uncertainty brought about by the trade war,our current strategy is to 1)reduce development costs by focusing only on the development and fulfilment of games already launched;2)grow the European wholesale market;and 3)initiate production o
70、f small games in Europe to reduce logistics cost of fulfilment.We strive to become a leading developer and publisher of quality tabletop games and are optimistic about the growth and development of the tabletop games industry despite the challenging business conditions currently.17 FINANCIAL REVIEWR
71、evenueOur revenue decreased by approximately 17.1%to approximately US$37.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2024 from approximately US$45.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2023,primarily due to the decrease in the recognition of crowd-funding game sales.Revenue from wholesale sales decr

73、Board Game.Revenue via crowd-funding platforms decreased to approximately US$20.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2024 from approximately US$26.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2023,which was mainly due to the decrease in recognition of sales of five crowd-funding projects in 2024 com
