Ruanyun Edai Technology Announces Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2025

(NASDAQ:RYET),

NANCHANG, China, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc. (“Ruanyun” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: RYET), a leading AI-powered education technology company in China, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

Key Financial Performance Highlights

  • Revenue decreased by 27.0% to $6.7 million in FY2025, primarily due to declines in SmartHomework(R) platform development and digitalization services, despite significant increases in revenues from SmartHomework(R) software customization and content development, and licensing sales, which rose by 3117% and 5492%, respectively, along with a 70.4% growth in SmartExam(R) services driven by international expansion after the IPO.
  • Gross profit rose 29.1% to $3.8 million, with gross margin improving from 32.1% to 56.7%, driven by a shift to higher-margin software services.
  • As a result, net loss narrowed to $0.5 million from $2.1 million.

Yan Fu, Founder and CEO of Ruanyun, commented: “In FY2025, despite our decrease in total revenue, our software customization and content development segment saw strong growth. As policy changes in China impacted revenue from some of our services, we're strategically shifting towards higher-margin software and AI-based services like AI-OCR for greater efficiency and customer diversification.”

“Aggressive cost management significantly strengthened our financials. Cost of revenue dropped by more than 50% to approximately $2.9 million. This led to a substantial 29.1% gross profit increase to approximately $3.8 million, expanding our gross margin by 24.6% to 56.7%. Consequently, our net loss narrowed significantly to approximately $0.5 million in FY2025 from approximately $2.1 million a year earlier.”

“Looking ahead, our U.S. IPO has already enabled the international replication of our business model, demonstrated by services provided to Lorpzenst Innovations LLC in the United States. Furthermore, our advancements in AI-based digital technology services, particularly with AI-OCR, present broad applicability beyond our current focus. In Saudi Arabia our innovative Chinese language learning platform, HanLink, has already established local partnerships and we are structured to keep expanding in the Middle Eastern region. We believe that this technological foundation and our proven operational model position us well for potential expansion into vocational, postgraduate, and adult education sectors, as well as broader geographic markets. Ruanyun believes that these strategic shifts, combined with improved profitability and efficient cost management, lay the groundwork for sustainable long-term growth and enhanced value for our shareholders.”

Revenue
The Company's revenue has primarily come from two main product lines: SmartExam(R) solution and SmartHomework(R) solution. These solutions generate revenue through six core streams: platform development, other testing services, software customization and content development, licensing, personalized exercise books and MOTK Pro, and digitalization services.

Revenue decreased by approximately $2.5 million, or 27.0%, from approximately $9.2 million in fiscal year 2024 to approximately $6.7 million in fiscal year 2025. The decrease in revenue primarily reflects a decrease in SmartHomework(R) solution digitalization services and SmartHomework(R) solution platform development, which was partially offset by an increase in SmartHomework(R) solution software customization and content development sales, as explained in details below.

SmartExam(R) Solution

  • Platform Development revenue decreased by $97,758, or 31.5%, to $212,377 in FY2025 from $310,135 in FY2024, due to a smaller project scale, despite completing one project each year. Future growth hinges on capturing market share in China's computerized testing sector.
  • Other Services revenue jumped 70.4%, from $265,707 in FY2024 to $452,881 in FY2025. This growth is largely due to our U.S. IPO enabling international business replication, notably with Lorpzenst Innovations LLC in the United States.

SmartHomework(R) Solution

  • Platform Development revenue decreased significantly by approximately $2.6 million, or 81.8%, to $571,658 in FY2025 from approximately $3.1 million in FY2024. This decline was primarily due to the high capital risk of upfront hardware investments and extended repayment cycles for domestic government projects, leading us to reduce these constructions.
  • Software Customization and Content Development revenue soared by 3117%, from $74,138 in FY2024 to approximately $2.4 million in FY2025. This surge was driven by standardized, rapidly replicable software products meeting customer needs and enabling robust market expansion in China.
  • Licensing revenue increased by 5492%, from $2,748 to $153,666, despite a decrease from two subscribers in FY2024 to one in FY2025. This significant growth is attributable to our standardized question bank's broad applicability, extending our reach to higher-paying vocational education.
  • Personalized Exercise Book and MOTK Pro revenue decreased by $55,040, or 62%, from $88,815 in FY2024 to $33,775 in FY2025. The drop was primarily due to changes in Chinese education policies prohibiting direct value-added service fees to students/parents, an impact we couldn't fully offset despite seeking new collaborations such as with telecom operators.
  • Digitalization Services revenue decreased by approximately $2.4 million, or 45.5%, from approximately $5.3 million in FY2024 to approximately $2.9 million in FY2025. This was largely due to Chinese education policies limiting supplementary materials. However, this service is no longer a core focus of Ruanyun as the Company transitions to AI-based digital technology services using proprietary AI Optical Character Recognition (AI-OCR). This technology efficiently processes and converts various documents and images, enabling intelligent recognition, automated data collection and processing, automated data entry and verification, and customized OCR solutions.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue decreased by approximately $3.3 million, or 53.5%, from approximately $6.2 million in FY2024 to approximately $2.9 million in FY2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's plan to discontinue businesses with significant hardware investment, reduce cost input, and increase gross profit.

Gross Profit and Margin

Gross profit increased by $855,732, or 29.1%, from approximately $2.9 million in FY2024 to approximately $3.8 million in FY2025. Gross margin increased by 24.6% from 32.1% in FY2024 to 56.7% in FY2025.

This increase was primarily due to personnel optimization and a strategic shift towards higher-margin software development and service businesses, boosting overall gross profit.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased by $779,212, or 15.4%, from approximately $5.1 million in FY2024 to $4.3 million in FY2025. The decrease was primarily due to reductions in selling expenses and research and development expenses, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses decreased by $583,900, or 24.7%, from approximately $2.4 million in FY2024 to approximately $1.8 million in FY2025. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $787,847 digital publishing expense, partially offset by an increase in consulting services. The decline in digital publishing expense aligns with the decrease in digitization service revenue.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by $125,377, or 8.7%, from approximately $1.4 million in FY2024 to approximately $1.6 million in FY2025, while core administrative expenses remained flat.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses decreased by $320,689, or 25.6%, from approximately $1.3 million in FY2024 to approximately $0.9 million in FY2025. This decrease primarily resulted from lower employee compensation and benefits for early-stage research, reduced rent expense and other R&D expense reductions.

Net loss

Net losses for FY2025 and FY2024 were approximately $0.5 million and approximately $2.1 million, respectively. This was primarily attributable to the decrease in revenue not being able to cover costs and operating expenses.

Cash balances

As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, cash balances were approximately $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Recent Developments

On July 11, 2025, Ruanyun announced partnership with the Confucius Institute at Prince Sultan University to bring its AI-powered HanLink platform to Saudi Arabia's first national online Confucius Institute.

On May 20, 2025, Ruanyun announced the successful launch and pilot of its innovative Chinese language learning platform, HanLink via a four-week trial at Riyadh's Education & Skills International School in Saudi Arabia.
