The company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $1,253,577, compared to $830,519 for the previous year. The increase is attributed to an expanded customer base from acquisitions in Singapore and South Korea.
Cost of revenue increased to $651,721 from $334,825, primarily due to increased sales in the food and beverage business. Operating expenses decreased to $3,027,024 from $3,402,793, mainly due to reduced professional fees.
HWH reported a net loss of $2,606,504 for the year, compared to a net loss of $1,076,662 in the previous year. The company attributes this to increased impairment losses and unrealized losses on convertible note receivables.
