The increase in sales expenses was mainly due to the increase in sales scale and the increase in foreign market development expenses during the reporting period. The increase in management expenses was mainly due to the gradual commissioning of the project to build new subsidiaries, which led to an increase in related fixed costs. Furthermore, the company is actively expanding new businesses such as parts processing and additive manufacturing, and is expected to collaborate better with traditional main businesses, and its position in the industrial chain is expected to continue to stabilize.
