Management Commentary
“The first half of fiscal year 2025 delivered revenue growth of 13.1%, which was driven by continued enterprise adoption of AI-powered software, technology improvements, and the scaling of our international sales and operations teams,” said Guanghai Li, Chief Executive Officer of Helport AI. “During this time, we made significant investments in product development, cloud infrastructure, and international expansion, which temporarily impacted gross margins and profitability. However, we believe that these investments are essential to scaling our platform and expanding into new markets, and we maintained profitability despite these investments. Moreover, we have seen our enterprise customers increasingly leverage our AI-powered BPO solutions to drive cost efficiencies and improve customer engagement, helping differentiate ourselves as a market leader in the AI-driven customer contact space.”
“On the technology front, our products are now comprehensively integrated with large language models (LLMs), which has been shown to enhance their ability to digest raw, unstructured information and provide smart, domain-specific applications for our growing customer base. We have also built new industry-specific knowledge bases, achieving major milestones for the Company across key sectors. Demonstrating this ability to penetrate new industries where we see vast growth potential, we have partnered with U.S.-based LendSure Mortgage Corp. (“LendSure”), a wholesale lender with a network of over 100,000 loan officers, as well as with seven insurance agencies across multiple US states. These scalable seeds represent early traction across multiple industry sectors, each of which represents significant market opportunities.”
“Operationally, we continued to make strategic investments in our team and infrastructure to strengthen and expand our capabilities and global reach. We have established offices in the Philippines and the U.S. and are in the process of opening additional offices in North America and Southeast Asia to execute on both existing and potential demand in these regions. We also welcomed Amy Fong as President, Director, and Interim CFO. Amy is a seasoned executive who is now overseeing our finance functions, leading strategy across capital markets, partner and customer development, and global operations.”
“Looking ahead to the second half of fiscal year 2025, we are building on our foundation and doubling down on strategic initiatives to accelerate revenue growth and enhance profitability. We are deepening penetration in what we anticipate will be high-growth markets, specifically North America and Southeast Asia. As demonstrated with our recent customer acquisitions across mortgage, insurance, and debt collection, we are tailoring our AI-powered solutions for industry-specific needs, aiming to expand adoption among BPOs, financial services, and public sector industries. We are driving monetization and acceleration of our AI+BPO offering, which has seen noteworthy demand in new segments such as consumer financing, which we expect will allow us to capture greater market share in AI-driven customer engagement solutions.”
“We will continue to prioritize R&D investments and building next-generation AI products that further differentiate Helport AI in the market. We are also focusing on cost efficiencies, including optimizing AI training costs and cloud infrastructure, and improving unit economics per deployment, to strengthen profitability and deliver long-term value to our shareholders,” concluded Li.

Financial Review for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
Revenue
During the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all of our revenue was derived from AI services. Revenue increased by approximately US$1.9 million, or 13.1%, from US$14.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$16.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to the average monthly subscribed seats, which grew from 5,011 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to 6,469 for the six months ended December 31, 2024. The growth was driven by (i) our efforts in continuous optimization and development in our service offerings and software platform, (ii) our abilities to improve overall cost performance for customers in their business management process, and (iii) the growing demand for AI software in the professional technology services market. During the first half of FY2025, the Company entered the U.S. market and secured several customers, demonstrating initial business traction and expansion potential.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue primarily consists of amortization of software, payments to a third-party service provider for outsourced operations, as well as cloud infrastructure costs. Cost of revenue related to AI services increased by approximately US$2.6 million, or 55.2%, from US$4.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$7.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, mainly due to the corresponding rise in outsourced operation costs as revenue increased. The growth rate of cost of revenue is proportionally higher than that of revenue, primarily due to investments required to serve new markets and customers. These investments enable us to enhance our product and service offerings with differentiated, competitive technology—particularly through the development of industry-specific application scenarios. These tailored solutions are essential for entering new sectors such as insurance, mortgage sales, and government services, as well as for localizing our platform to meet the regulatory and operational demands of new geographic regions like North America and Southeast Asia.
Gross Profit
As a result of the foregoing, we recorded gross profit of US$9.0 million and US$9.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This reduction of gross profit margin from 67.0% to 54.6% is the result of the aforementioned elevated amortization costs from software R&D, increased outsourcing operation fees, and expanded cloud infrastructure, which we believe are necessary for our future growth and profitability.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Our selling and marketing expenses increased by 953.0% from US$50,214 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$528,746 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was mainly due to (i) the increase of payroll expenses of US$303,050, primarily driven by the establishment and ramp-up of dedicated sales and marketing teams in our U.S. subsidiary; and (ii) the increase of share-based compensation expense of US$121,800, resulting from share grants under the Company’s 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. The U.S. team expansion is part of our broader international growth strategy, aimed at strengthening our presence in North America—a key strategic market. As part of this effort, we significantly expanded our U.S. office presence, increasing headcount to support go-to-market execution, client onboarding, business development, and marketing in the region. In February 2024, we established the U.S. team, and by December 2024, it had expanded to twenty-two staff, among whom eight were engaged in selling and marketing activities.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses increased by 125.2% from US$2.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$4.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was primarily attributable to: (i) an increase of US$1.5 million in professional service fees such as advisory fees, audit fees and legal fees for overseas listing; (ii) an increase of US$0.4 million in insurance expenses; (iii) an increase of US$0.2 million in payroll expenses resulting from the expansion of the management team’s headcount; and (iv) an increase of US$0.2 million in withholding tax incurred from 10% withholding tax on AI services provided to our customers in China.
3
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses increased by US$1.3 million from US$78.8 thousand for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was attributable to an additional US$0.8 million in AI training service fees and US$0.3 million in product development fees incurred during the six months ended December 31, 2024, allowing us to better differentiate and diversify our product and services offerings with competitive technologies, especially as they relate to the development of industry-specific application scenarios.
Financial Expenses, net
Our financial expenses, net increased from US$19,162 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$312,437 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in foreign exchange loss of US$266,669 and the increase in interest expenses accrued for convertible promissory notes and the loan from a third party of US$22,139.
Income Tax Expenses
As a result of our operating income position for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred income tax expenses of US$0.7 million and US$1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, our net income decreased by US$5.1 million, or 82.9%, from US$6.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 to US$1.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in net income was mainly due to a US$2.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses, a US$1.4 million increase in research and development expenses, and a US$0.7 million decrease in gross profit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash was $0.9 million as of December 31, 2024, as compared to $0.1 million on December 31, 2023. We had a positive working capital of $7.6 million and $10.6 million as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Our liquidity is based on our ability to enhance our operating cash flow position and obtain financing from equity and debt investors to fund our general operations and capital expenditure. Our ability to further enhance our liquidity depends on management’s ability to execute our business plan successfully, which includes optimizing accounts receivable collection and striking a balance between revenue growth and investments in R&D activities.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We consider adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental measure to review and assess our operating performance. We define adjusted net income for a specific period as net income in the same period excluding share-based compensation expenses and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities.
We present this non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Accordingly, we believe that adjusted net income helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in net income and certain expenses that are not expected to result in future cash payments or that are non-recurring in nature. We also believe that the use of the non-GAAP financial measure facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance, enhances the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allows for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision making.
The non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation from or construed as an alternative to its most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the historical non-GAAP financial measure in reconciliation to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. As the non-GAAP financial measure has material limitations as an analytical metric and may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, such measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider the non-GAAP financial measure as a substitute for, or superior to, its most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

1. | Organization and Principal Activities |
Helport AI Limited (the “Company” or “HPAI”) was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on October 3, 2023. The Company was formed to facilitate the merger between Tristar Acquisition I Corp. (“Tristar”), a special purpose acquisition company with its securities traded on the New York Stock Exchange (under the symbol “TRIS”), and Helport Limited, a British Virgin Island exempted company (“Helport”) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) dated December 18, 2023, and the public listing of Helport.
On December 18, 2023, Helport entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Tristar, HPAI, Merger I Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HPAI (the “First Merger Sub”), Merger II Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HPAI (the “Second Merger Sub”), Navy Sail International Limited, a British Virgin islands company, as the purchaser representative, and Extra Technology Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company, as the seller representative.
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the mergers contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination”, or the “Transaction”, and the consummation of such mergers, the “Closing”) were carried out in two steps:
(i) | First Merger: The First Merger Sub merged with and into Helport (the “First Merger”), with Helport surviving the First Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HPAI, and the outstanding securities of Helport being converted into the right to receive securities of HPAI. |
(ii) | Second Merger: Following the First Merger, the Second Merger Sub merged with and into Tristar (the “Second Merger”), with Tristar surviving the Second Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HPAI, and the outstanding securities of Tristar being converted into the right to receive securities of HPAI. |
The Business Combination was consummated on August 2, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), and the Company’s securities started trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “HPAI” on August 5, 2024. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”), are primarily engaged in the development of software and applications and mainly provide software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) platform and artificial intelligent (“AI”) tools to customers in the contact center industry.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s subsidiaries are as follows:
Name: | Date of incorporation | Place of incorporation | Percentage of direct or indirect ownership | Principal activities | ||||||||
Helport Limited (“Helport”) | June 5, 2023 | British Virgin Islands | 100 | % | Holding company | |||||||

1. | Organization and Principal Activities (Continued) |
Helport is determined to be the accounting acquirer, given that it effectively controlled the combined entity after the Transaction. The Transaction is not determined as a business combination for the purpose of accounting because Tristar was not a business. The Transaction is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, which is equivalent to the issuance of shares by Helport for the net monetary assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization, based on the following factors:
● | Helport’s former shareholders hold a majority ownership interest in the Company; |
● | Helport’s former shareholders have the right to nominate, appoint and remove the majority of the members on the board of directors of the Company; |
● | Helport’s existing senior management team comprise senior management of the Company; |
● | Helport is the larger entity in terms of substantive operations and employee base; and |
● | Helport’s operations comprise the ongoing operations of the Company. |
Under this method of accounting, Helport is determined as the accounting acquirer and the historical financial statements of Helport became the Company’s historical financial statements, with retrospective adjustments to give effect to the reverse recapitalization. All of the ordinary shares of Helport that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Transaction were cancelled and converted into an aggregate of 30,280,768 ordinary shares of the Company, which has been restated retrospectively to reflect the equity structure of the Company. Net income per share is retrospectively restated using the historical weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio.
The par value of ordinary shares changed from $1 to $0.0001, and the par value of ordinary shares, additional paid-in capital and share data were adjusted retrospectively as of June 30, 2024.
The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity for the six months ended December 31, 2023 were also adjusted retrospectively to reflect these changes. The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding used in computing net loss per ordinary share - basic and diluted was adjusted retrospectively from 156 to 30,280,768 for the six months ended December 31, 2023.
The net income per ordinary share before and after the retrospective adjustments of comparative historical period are as follows:

2023 Reorganization
The Group’s history began in September 2020 with the establishment of Helport Pte. Ltd., a limited liability company established in Singapore by Ms. Fan Yu (known as the “Founding Shareholder”). Prior to the Business Combination, Helport undertook an equity restructuring in order to re-domicile its business from Singapore to the British Virgin Islands (the “2023 Reorganization”), which was executed in the following steps:
1) | In June 2023, Helport Limited was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands to be the holding company of the Group. On November 14, 2023, Helport established Helport Group Limited in the British Virgin Islands, a wholly owned subsidiary to be the intermediate holding company. |
2) | Effective on December 22, 2023, Helport Limited, through Helport BVI, acquired 100% of the equity interest of Helport Singapore from the Founding Shareholder, and thus, Helport Singapore became a wholly owned subsidiary of Helport Limited. |
The main purpose of the 2023 Reorganization was to establish a BVI holding company for the existing business in preparation for an overseas business combination. Immediately before and after the 2023 Reorganization as described above, Helport’s business continued to be carried out by its operating subsidiaries without change in control.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
(a) | Basis of presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and have been consistently applied. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the interim period ended December 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
(b) | Principle of consolidation |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein represent the financial statements of Helport AI Limited and its subsidiaries after the Business Combination which was consummated on August 2, 2024. All intercompany transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation. A subsidiary is an entity in which (i) the Company directly or indirectly controls more than 50% of the voting power; or (ii) the Company has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or to cast a majority of votes at the meetings of the board of directors or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee pursuant to a statute or under an agreement among the shareholders or equity holders.
(c) | Use of estimates |
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates include, but not limited to allowance for credit losses, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, fair value measurement of warrant liabilities, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and as such, differences may be material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
(d) | Foreign currency translation |
The reporting currency of the Group is the U.S. dollar (“USD” or “$”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiary located in Singapore is the U.S. dollar.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
(e) | Deferred offering costs |
The Group complies with the requirement of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Deferred offering costs consist of legal, advisory, listing and printing fees and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Business Combination transaction with Tristar for overseas listing. Deferred offering costs would be charged against shareholders’ equity upon consummation of the Business Combination. As of June 30, 2024, the Group capitalized deferred offering costs of $817,871, and all the deferred offering costs were charged against shareholders’ equity upon consummation of the Business Combination on August 2, 2024.
(f) | Cash |
Cash consists of cash in bank only. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, cash balances were $852,463 and $2,581,086, respectively.
(g) | Credit losses |
On July 1, 2023, the Group adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses” (Topic 326). Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” by using an aging schedule method in combination with current situation adjustment, which replaces the previous incurred loss impairment model. The expected credit loss impairment model requires the entity to recognize its estimate of expected credit losses for affected financial assets using an allowance for credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
The Group’s accounts receivable and other receivables included in the line item of Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the balance sheet, are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. The Group uses an aging schedule method in combination with current situation adjustment to determine the loss rate of receivable balances and evaluate the expected credit losses on an individual basis. When establishing the loss rate, the Group makes the assessment based on various factors, including aging of receivable balances, historical experience, credit-worthiness of debtor, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic, and other factors that may affect the Group’s ability to collect form the debtors. The Group also applies current situation adjustment to provide specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that the receivable is unlikely to be collected.
Expected credit losses are indicated in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.
(h) | Accounts receivable, net |
Accounts receivable, net are stated at the original amount less an allowance for credit losses. The Group reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. The Group considers factors in assessing the collectability of its receivables, such as historical bad debts, changes in customers’ payment patterns, credit-worthiness and financial conditions of the customers, current economic trends and other specific circumstances related to the accounts. An allowance for credit losses is recorded in the period in which a loss is determined to be probable. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted. No allowance for credit losses was recorded for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
(i) | Intangible assets, net |
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any recorded impairment. Estimated useful lives by intangible asset classes are as follows:
Category | Estimated useful lives | |
Software | 3~5 years |
The estimated useful lives of intangible assets with finite lives are reassessed if circumstances occur that indicate the original estimated useful lives may have changed.
(j) | Impairment of long-lived assets |
The Group reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Group measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Group to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. The Group did not record any impairment charge for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
(k) | Warrants |
The Group evaluated its public warrants (“Public Warrants”) and private warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”, together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”), in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”), and concluded that a provision in the Warrant Agreement, dated October 13, 2021, by and between Tristar and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agreement”), related to certain tender or exchange offers precludes the Warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815-40, the Warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets and measured at fair value at inception (on the date of Tristar’s initial public offering) and at each reporting date in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”), with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations in the period of change.
The Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using a modified Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. As the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Group determines that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. The fair value of the Public and Private Placement Warrants as of December 31, 2024 is based on observable listed prices. The Private Placement Warrants have the same value as the Public Warrants since they are also subject to the make-whole provisions, per the warrant agreement. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Group recognized changes of fair value of the warrant liabilities of $336,136.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
(l) | Fair value measurement |
Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Group considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of inputs are:
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are as follows:
● | Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
● | Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. |
● | Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. |
Accounting guidance also describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.
Financial assets and liabilities of the Group primarily consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other receivables, accounts payable, amounts due to related parties, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and warrant liabilities. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the carrying amounts of other financial instruments approximated to their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The warrant liabilities were measured at fair value using unobservable inputs and were categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Group’s non-financial assets, such as software and equipment, would be measured at fair value only if they were determined to be impaired.
The following table details the fair value measurements of liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on the following three-tiered fair value hierarchy per ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, as of December 31, 2024 and August 2, 2024.

(l) | Fair value measurement (continued) |
The fair value of the Public Warrants is considered a Level 1 valuation and is determined by their public trading price. The fair value of the Private Warrants is considered a Level 3 valuation and is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. As of December 31, 2024, the per unit fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Warrant was $0.2250 and $0.2989, respectively, both with an exercise price of $11.50. The changes for Level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs are as follows:

(m) | Accounts and other payables |
Accounts and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. They are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). Otherwise, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Accounts and other payables are initially recognized as fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
(n) | Related party |
A related party may be any of the following: a) an affiliate, which is a party that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with another party; b) a principle owner, owner of record or known beneficial owner of more than 10% of the voting interest of an entity; c) management, which are persons having responsibility for achieving objectives of the entity and requisite authority to make decision; d) immediate family of management or principal owners; e) a parent company and its subsidiaries; and f) other parties that have ability to significant influence the management or operating policies of the entity.

(o) | Revenue recognition |
On July 1, 2020, the Group adopted ASC606 using the modified retrospective approach.
The Group recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step 3: Determine the transaction price
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation
These criteria as they relate to each of the following major revenue generating activities are described below.
Revenues are presented net of value added taxes (“VAT”).

AI services
The Group enters into System Information Technology Service Agreements with customers, to provide a series of services in the form of integrated AI service tools — AI Assist, which includes system functional modules, efficiency management services, custom development services, and operation outsourcing services. The Group identifies one performance obligation in the licensed usage of AI Assist because a series of services are delivered through the ultimate integrated functions within AI Assist, and cannot be separated from each other. The service consideration is reconciled on a monthly basis, which is calculated based on the monthly average subscribed seats. The Group usually grants the customers a credit term between 180 days and 365 days in the payment arrangement. Since the customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits through the usage of AI Assist as the Group maintains technical support and ensure the normal function of AI Assist, revenues is recognized ratably over the contract term.
Certain contracts with promises of additional customization or request may include multiple performance obligations when the promises are separately identifiable with one another and are indicated with standalone selling price. For such arrangements, the Group allocates transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Group generally determines the standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers. Revenue from such additional customization or request is recognized at a point in time when the service deliverables are completed and achieve the requirements of the customers.

Others
The Group also provided medical consulting services to customers. The Group identified one performance obligation in each request order and recognized revenue as the service fee stated in the revenue statement over the service period.
Principal versus agent considerations
The Group has entered into contracts with a third-party service provider for outsourced operation, in which the third-party service provider is obliged to conduct certain technical supporting activities, including IT environment maintenance, software module optimization, industrial database update, servers setting and more. The Group has evaluated the terms with the third-party service provider and considers itself a principal and recognizes revenue on a gross basis in AI services as it controls the services through the following key considerations:
● | The Group owns its brand and intellectual property, directs the third-party service provider to conduct a series of outsourced operation activities on its behalf, and reserves the right to accept or reject any customer contracts without involvement of the third-party service provider. The Group assumes primary responsibility for controlling the quality of AI service deliverables. |
● | The Group has discretion in setting the price. The third-party service provider is only entitled to the fixed outsourced operation fees settled monthly for their performance obligation and do not participate in profit sharing for the revenue from AI services. |
Contract balance
When the obligation in service contract has been performed, the Group presents the contract in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as a contract asset or a contract liability, depending on the relationship between the Group’s performance and the customer’s payment. A contract asset is the Group’s right to consideration in exchange for goods and services that the Group has transferred to a customer. The Group did not have any contract assets as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024.
The contract liability represents the billings or cash received for services in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized as revenue when all of the Group’s revenue recognition criteria are met. The Group did not have any contract liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024.
(p) | Cost of revenues |
Cost of revenues primarily consists of amortization of purchased software, payment to a third-party service provider for outsourced operation, and server costs.
(q) | Selling expenses |
Selling expenses mainly consist of payroll expenses, share-based compensation expenses, marketing and promotion expenses, and other miscellaneous expenses.
(r) | General and administrative expenses |
General and administrative expenses mainly consist of withholding tax, professional service fees, payroll expenses, insurance expenses, share-based compensation expenses, and other office miscellaneous fees.

(s) | Research and development expenses |
Research and development expenses primarily consist of payroll expenses, AI training service fee, and product development fee.
(t) | Leases |
The Group enters into lease agreements to lease office spaces. On July 1, 2024, the Group adopted ASU No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) “Leases” using the optional transition method. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after July 1, 2024 are presented under Topic 842, while the Group had not commenced any leases subject to Topic 842 until October 2024. Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Group assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.
The Group accounts for short-term leases with terms less than 12 months in accordance with ASC 842-20-25-2 to recognize the lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Group’s rights to use underlying assets for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Group’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease ROU assets
The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprise the initial amounts of the lease liabilities adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received. The Group will evaluate the carrying value of ROU assets if there are indicators of impairment and review the recoverability of the related asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group is determined to not be recoverable and is in excess of the estimated fair value, the Group will record an impairment loss in other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Group did not recognize impairment loss on its operating lease ROU assets.
Operating lease liabilities
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the discount rate for the leases. As most of the Group’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Group’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise that option.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. They are re-measured when there is a change in future lease payments, if there is a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if there is any change in the Group assessment of option purchases, contract extensions or termination options.

(u) | Share-based Compensation |
The Group applies ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), to account for all of its share-based payments. In accordance with ASC 718, the Group determines whether an award should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or equity award. All the Group’s grants of share-based awards were classified as equity awards and are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values.
The Group has elected to recognize compensation expense using the straight-line method for all awards granted with graded vesting over the requisite service period. For awards with performance conditions, the Company would recognize compensation cost if and when it concludes that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The Group has also elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. Previously recognized compensation cost for the awards is reversed in the period that the award is forfeited.
(v) | Income taxes |
The Group accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statements recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures.
Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. The Group did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its provision for income taxes line of its statements of income for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Group does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.
(w) | Commitments and contingencies |
In the normal course of business, the Group is subject to commitments and contingencies, including operating lease commitments, legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business that relate to a wide range of matters, such as government investigations and tax matters. The Group recognizes a liability for such contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Group may consider many factors in making these assessments on liability for contingencies, including historical and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter.

(x) | Earnings per share |
The Group computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS are computed by dividing income available to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the weighted average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised and converted into ordinary shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no dilution impact.
(y) | Segment reporting |
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statements information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Based on the criteria established by ASC 280, the Group’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group. As a whole and hence, the Group has only one reportable segment. The Group does not distinguish between markets or segments for internal reporting. As the Group’s long-lived assets are substantially located in Singapore, no segment geographical information is presented.
(z) | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Group is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.” This ASU incorporates certain SEC disclosure requirements into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in the ASU are expected to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Codification Topics, allow users to compare entities subject more easily to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements and for entities required to file or furnish financial statements with or to the SEC in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective in two years later. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective for any entity. The Group does not expect to adopt this guidance early and does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

(z) | Recent accounting pronouncements (continued) |
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, which is an update to Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The amendments in this update improve financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The amendments in this update: (1) require that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss (collectively referred to as the “significant expense principle”), (2) require that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition. The other segment items category is the difference between segment revenue less the segment expenses disclosed under the significant expense principle and each reported measure of segment profit or loss, (3) require that a public entity provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, (4) clarify that if the CODM uses more than one measure of a segment’s profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, a public entity may report one or more of those additional measures of segment profit. However, at least one of the reported segment profit or loss measures (or the single reported measure, if only one is disclosed) should be the measure that is most consistent with the measurement principles used in measuring the corresponding amounts in the public entity’s consolidated financial statements. In other words, in addition to the measure that is most consistent with the measurement principles under U.S. GAAP, a public entity is not precluded from reporting additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss that are used by the CODM in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, (5) require that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, and (6) require that a public entity that has a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this update and all existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. The amendments in this update also do not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this update retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. The Group expects the adoption of this ASU will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvement to Income Tax Disclosure. This standard requires more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This standard also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Group expects the adoption of this ASU will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-02, Codification Improvements-Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements (“ASU 2024-02”). The amendments in this update affect a variety of Topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. This update contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. In other instances, the references were used in prior statements to provide guidance in certain topical areas. ASU 2024-02 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Group does not expect to adopt this guidance early and does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”) which requires detailed disclosures in the notes to financial statements disaggregating specific expense categories and certain other disclosures to provide enhanced transparency into the nature and function of expenses. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements should be applied on a prospective basis while retrospective application is permitted. The Group does not expect to adopt this guidance early and does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

12. | Warrant Liabilities |
On August 2, 2024, Tristar, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), entered into the Assignment, Assumption and Amendment to Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”) which amended that certain Warrant Agreement, dated as of October 13, 2021, relating to the Tristar warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”), filed with the SEC on October 13, 2021. Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment,
(i) | the Company has assumed the obligations of Tristar under the Warrant Agreement, such that, among other things, Helport has been added as a party thereto; and |
(ii) | references to Tristar Class A ordinary shares in the Warrant Agreement means the ordinary shares of the Company. |
As of December 31, 2024, there were 18,845,000 Warrants outstanding (including 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 7,345,000 Private Placement Warrants). The Warrants have the same terms as the Tristar warrants. Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The exercise period of Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants commenced on the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, terminating on the earlier to occur if (i) five years after the completion of the initial business combination (August 1, 2029), and (ii) the date fixed for redemption of the Warrants. The Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares and in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any Warrant.
The Company also permits Warrant holders to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the Warrant Agreement. If the ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company may, at its option, require holders of Warrants who exercise their Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will be required to use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. The Warrants became exercisable on the completion of the Business Combination, and will expire five years after the consummation of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption.
The Company may redeem the Public Warrant, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:
● | at any time while the Warrants are exercisable; |
● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Warrant holder; |
● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment for splits, dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events), for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to Warrant holders, and; |
● | if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such Warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. |

12. | Warrant Liabilities (Continued) |
If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and the Company issues a notice of redemption, each Warrant holder can exercise his or her Warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the ordinary shares may fall below the $18.00 trigger price as well as the $11.50 Warrant exercise price per full share after the redemption notice is issued and not limit the Company’s ability to complete the redemption. The redemption criteria for the Public Warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide Warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the Warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of the Company’s redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the Warrants.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable (except as described below) so long as they are held by the sponsor of Tristar or its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the sponsor of Tristar or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.
The Company accounts for the 18,845,000 Warrants (including 11,500,000 Public Warrants and 7,345,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each Warrant must be recorded as a liability. The Private Placement Warrants have a provision whereby the Private Placement Warrants if transferred to persons other than permitted transferees shall upon transfer cease to be Private Placement Warrants and shall become Public Warrants. Because of this provision, the Private Placement Warrants settlement amounts are dependent on the Warrant holder, and the Private Placement Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s ordinary shares, therefore precluding equity classification. The Public Warrant tender provisions do not provide for the Warrant holders and the underlying shareholders to receive the same pro rata settlement amount. Because of this tender offer provision, it requires the Public Warrants to be classified as a liability because the settlement amount received by the Warrant holder could be greater than the holder of the Company’s ordinary shares.
The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the Warrants as derivative liabilities at fair value upon the closing of the Business Combination. These warrant liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to its current fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company will reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the Warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.
