"This marks our sixteenth quarterly report. Over the years, the market has weathered numerous ups and downs, yet we have remained consistent - because true value creation has never been about chasing the latest trends, but about discipline and focus, day in and day out," said Larry Wu, Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "This quarter, we once again proved with record revenue and earnings per share that steadiness is not mediocrity, but the strongest defense against uncertainty. Going forward, we will continue to tune out the noise, stay the course, execute with discipline, and deliver sustainable long-term value for our shareholders."

"Our strong balance sheet and cash generation continue to provide the flexibility to execute our capital allocation strategy dynamically," said Erica Wei, Chief Financial Officer. "We accelerated our share repurchases to approximately $30 million in the second quarter and deployed an additional $18 million post June 30, 2026, capitalizing on recent market volatility and the resulting pricing dislocation. With approximately $30 million remaining and two years left on our prior authorization - insufficient for opportunistic execution - we have cancelled our existing plan in favor of a new three-year $120 million program. We remain firmly committed to disciplined capital allocation and building value for our long-term shareholders."

Business Outlook

The Company expects its total revenues to be between $375 million and $400 million in the third 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 "2025 Program"). The 2025 Program became effective on August 17, 2025 and will remain in effect for a period of three years. During the second quarter of 2026, we repurchased 758,612 of our Class A ordinary shares at a total consideration of approximately $30.0 million. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2026, the Company has repurchased an aggregate of 491,831 Class A ordinary shares in the open market at a total consideration of approximately $17.7 million pursuant to a repurchase plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. As of August 5, 2026, approximately $29.6 million remained unutilized under the 2025 Program. On August 5, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new $120.0 million share repurchase program (the "2026 Program"). The 2026 Program became effective on August 6, 2026 and will remain in effect for a period of three years, while the 2025 Program was terminated on the same date.

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.

Non-GAAP financial measures, which may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
