VAT Credit to be deducted refers to the amount of VAT that the Company already paid on purchases but is not yet fully eligible to offset against its output tax in the current period. The Company classified this portion of the VAT credit to be deducted as a current asset, based on the assessment that it will be utilized to offset output tax within the next twelve months.

 

Since fiscal year 2025, revenues generated by Leishen Nanjing, Leishen Shandong, ZJY Technologies and Sichuan Leishen Hongzhuo were lower than their costs and expenses, resulting in a larger amount of input VAT invoices received compared to output VAT invoices issued. The excess portion could not be deducted in the current period and thus classified as other current assets, to be carried forward for deduction in future periods.

   
(4) Advanced service fee primarily were cash advances to third parties for equipment consulting services. As of September 30, 2025, advanced service fee primarily consisted of amounts paid in advance to Beijing Youyi Natural Technology Co., Ltd. ($153,174), Sichuan Zhuoyue Shuxin Technology Co., Ltd.
