Planet Green Holdings Corp Reports Grim 2025 Annual Results
1. Company Overview
Planet Green Holdings Corp, headquartered in Flushing, New York, operates primarily through its subsidiaries, including Jingshan Sanhe, Xianning Bozhuang, and Fast Approach Inc. The past year has seen the company refine its operational strategy following a series of acquisitions and dispositions. However, the financial results for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, have raised significant concerns among stakeholders as the company faces increasing operational challenges.
2. Financial Performance
Net Revenues
For the fiscal year 2025, Planet Green Holdings Corp reported net revenues of $3.04 million, a 35% decline from the previous year’s figure of $4.69 million. This drop was largely driven by stagnant sales in diesel products, which plummeted from $4.10 million to $2.79 million, and a dramatic decrease in advertising service revenue from $0.41 million to a mere $644.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
The company's cost of revenues decreased by 29%, from approximately $4.14 million in 2024 to $2.94 million in 2025. Despite this reduction, the gross profit fell to $0.10 million, reflecting an 82% decline compared to $0.56 million in 2024. This sharp decline in gross profit underscores the challenges the company has faced in maintaining sales and managing costs effectively.

More alarmingly, general and administrative expenses skyrocketed from $3.06 million in 2024 to $17.64 million in 2025, largely due to the issuance of 6,950,000 shares of common stock valued at $14.43 million.
Net Loss
The company reported a staggering net loss of $26.98 million for the year, which represents a 268% increase from the $7.33 million loss recorded in 2024. This increase is attributed to rising general and administrative expenses and losses from discontinued operations.

5. Cash Flow Analysis
