IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. (“Cheetah” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq CM: CTNT), a provider of logistics and warehousing services and international trading services, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and provided a corporate update.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported total revenue of $3,557,805, compared to $361,935 in the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $3,195,870, or 883.0%. The Company recorded an operating loss of $821,890 for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $1,564,479 in the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of $742,589, or 47.5%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase of $237,229 in gross profit and the absence of an impairment loss of $731,307 recognized in the same period in 2025, partially offset by an increase of $287,851 in general and administrative expenses compared to the same period in 2025. The Company recognized other expenses, net, of $1,726,105 for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, primarily attributable to a $2,783,884 loss resulting from the change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration asset, partially offset by interest income of $398,232 and other income of $666,508. After accounting for an income tax provision of nil, the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $2,547,995, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $1,314,650 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase in net loss of $1,233,345, or 93.8%.
Tony Liu, Cheetah’s Chairman and CEO, commented: “The third quarter of 2026 marked an important step forward in the execution of our business diversification strategy. Following the acquisition of Super International Trading Limited in May, our international trading business demonstrated encouraging momentum, generating approximately $3.56 million in revenue during the quarter. This performance reflects the progress we have made in expanding our business platform and developing new sources of revenue.”
“While our logistics and warehousing business continues to face challenges arising from evolving global trade conditions and cross-border customer demand, we remain focused on optimizing our operating structure and allocating resources toward opportunities that we believe offer greater long-term growth potential. We are encouraged by the progress of our international trading business and will continue to focus on strengthening its operations, expanding business opportunities, and improving operational efficiency.”
“Looking ahead, we remain committed to disciplined capital allocation, prudent financial management, and the pursuit of strategic opportunities that complement our existing capabilities. We believe that our continued efforts to diversify our revenue streams and strengthen our operating platform will position the Company for sustainable long-term growth.”
Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Continuing operations – logistics and warehousing business
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $nil from its logistics and warehousing services segment, compared to $361,935 for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the disposition of Edward and the expiration of TWEW’s legacy customer service contracts during late 2025 and early 2026, which were not renewed on their original terms. As of the date of this release, TWEW is renegotiating logistics and labor services arrangements with customers that had business relationships with TWEW prior to its acquisition, and letters of intent and draft contracts with certain of these customers are in the process of being executed.
The Company also reported cost of revenue of $nil and $317,757 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing a decrease of $317,757, or 100.0%, consistent with the corresponding decline in revenue from Edward and TWEW.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2026, was $nil, a decrease of $44,178, or 100.0%, from $44,178 for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations-logistics and warehousing services segment decreased by $90,368, or 84.1%, to $17,068 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $107,436 for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to the disposal of Edward in 2026.
Continuing operations – international trading
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $3,557,805 from its international trading segment, all of which was generated by Super International Trading Limited (“Super International”), which we acquired on May 27, 2026. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s international trading business following the acquisition of Super International.
The Company also reported cost of revenue of $3,276,398 and $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing an increase of $3,276,398, all of which was attributable to Super International, consistent with the corresponding increase in international trading revenue.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $281,407, an increase of $281,407, from $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations - international trading segment increased to $23,349 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Continuing operations – Corporate Unallocated Operating Adjustments
General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations- corporate unallocated operating adjustments segment increased by $354,870, or 51.1%, to $1,048,697 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $693,827 for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was mainly due to travel and entertainment expenses and legal and accounting fees and other general and administrative expenses.
Share-based compensation expenses were $14,183 and $76,087 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing a decrease of $61,904, or 81.4%.
Interest income from continuing operations was $398,232 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $244,776 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $153,456 or 62.7%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average outstanding loan balances as the Company made additional loans to third parties, resulting in higher interest income.
Interest expense incurred from our continuing operations was $6,961 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, which decreased by $888, or 11.3%, from $7,849 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, mainly due to the continued amortization of our long-term borrowings and lower credit card and premium finance interest.
Net other income from continuing operations was $666,508 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $12,902 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $653,606, or 5,065.9%. The increase was primarily driven by higher foreign exchange gains resulting from currency rate fluctuations.
The Company’s receivable from withdrawal of investment deposit of $41,762,995 as of September 30, 2026, represents RMB 280,000,000 contributed by Naiside to a PRC investment fund in January 2026 and repayable in full by Shanghai Kesheng on or before December 30, 2026. The receivable is denominated in Renminbi and remeasured at each reporting date. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized an unrealized foreign exchange gain of $652,422 on this receivable. Excluding this non-cash gain, the Company’s loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $2,547,995 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 would have been approximately $3,200,417.
Other expense from the change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration asset was $2,783,884 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net loss of $2,547,995 from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $1,314,650 for the same period of 2025.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in average outstanding loan balances as the Company made additional loans to third parties, resulting in higher interest income.
Interest expense incurred from our continuing operations was $21,460 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, which decreased by $3,261, or 13.2%, from $24,721 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, mainly due to lower average outstanding balances under long-term borrowings and premium finance arrangements.

Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations
The Company reported a net loss of approximately $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $2.5 million. As the Company continues to integrate its newly acquired international trading business and develop its logistics and warehousing service business, the Company may continue to incur operating losses and generate negative cash flow. These factors were considered in management’s evaluation of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, together with the mitigating factors described below.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $14.5 million and a working capital balance of $87.1 million. In addition, the Company had a receivable from withdrawal of investment deposit of $41.8 million and loans receivable from third parties of approximately $29.5 million, which can be sufficient for the Company to support its ongoing business operations and meet the obligations in the future.
Management has evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with ASC 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern. This evaluation considered the Company’s current financial condition, expected cash flows, obligations due within the next 12 months, and available sources of liquidity.
The Company is working to further improve its liquidity and capital sources primarily by generating cash from operations, pursuing debt financing, and, if needed, seeking financial support from its principal stockholder. If necessary to fully implement its business plan and sustain continued growth, the Company may seek additional equity financing from outside investors. Based on the current operating plan, management believes that the aforementioned measures collectively will provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company’s liquidity and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the issuance date of its consolidated financial statements.
