"We closed out an exceptional year with record revenues and EPS, a validation of the strength and intentionality behind our growth strategy. Our model is built for global adaptability - designed to perform even in challenging environments. By expanding our footprint, scaling our marketplace, and executing targeted acquisitions that deepen our channel-agnostic ecosystem, we have built a business for resilience and accelerating potential," said Larry Wu, Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "While global macro conditions are ever evolving, we have designed a flexible, highly responsive model that enables us to adapt quickly and continue outperforming. We are grateful for the trust and support of our shareholders, and we are determined to reward that trust."

"Our strong execution delivered positive operating cash flow of $64 million in the fourth quarter, driving year-end liquidity of $417 million in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, and a balance sheet with zero debt," said Erica Wei, Chief Financial Officer. "This financial strength allows us to continue investing in opportunities that support our long-term growth, while returning capital to shareholders through buybacks. To date, we have executed approximately $33 million in share buybacks under our latest $111 million three-year buyback plan announced in August 2025. With these resources, we remain well positioned to execute on our diversification strategy and support durable, long-term value creation."

Business Outlook

The Company expects its total revenues to be between $330 million and $355 million in the first quarter of 2026. This forecast reflects the Company's current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change and cannot be predicted with reasonable accuracy as of the date hereof.

Share Repurchase Program

On August 13, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $111.0 million share repurchase program. The program became effective on August 17, 2025 and will remain in effect for a period of three years. The previously authorized share repurchase program was terminated effective August 16, 2025. During the fourth quarter of 2025, we repurchased 328,366 of our Class A ordinary shares at a total consideration of approximately $10 million. Subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company has repurchased an aggregate of 297,944 Class A ordinary shares in the open market at a total consideration of approximately $12 million pursuant to a repurchase plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act.

Under the share repurchase program, the Company may purchase its ordinary shares through various means, including open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, any combination thereof or other legally permissible means. The Company may effect repurchase transactions in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The number of shares repurchased and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with the Company's working capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors.
