Press Release
Glory Star expected to further increase profitability
Glory Star New Media Group, a Nasdaq-listed digital media platform and content-driven e-commerce company in China, is expected to be able to further increase its profitability with its growing market share and economy of scale.
The company reported a 15.8% growth in its Non-GAAP net income to US$16.9 million for the six-months ended June 30 from US$14.6 million in the same period of last year.
During the first half of this year, the company’s total revenues grew 144.6% to US$71.9 million from US$29.4 million, thanks to the increase in advertising revenues and Cheers e-Mall marketplace service revenue, primarily attributable to the development and promotion of its mobile and online businesses.
Income from operations surged 40.9% to US$16.2 million from US$11.5 million.
During the first half year of 2021, the company successfully grew its top and bottom lines as it allocated more resources to sales and marketing to augment its brand equity and fuel its long-term growth engine.
The company’s rising economy of scale will allow it to gradually reduce operating expenses and capitalize on the rising popularity of video content and deliver lasting shareholder value.
At the end of June 30, the number of downloads of the company’s Cheers App reached 215.6 million, up from 121 million a year earlier. The increase in the number, a key indicator of the attractiveness and usability of its Cheers App and its e-Mall platform traffic, showed that it had successfully converted viewers of its content to its Cheers App.
Average daily active users (DAUs) of the app grew to 7.1 million from 4.5 million for the same period. Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) on its Cheers e-Mall platform jumped to 231,630 from 19,984.
Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of the Cheers App reached US$181.2 million in the first six months of this year, compared with US$20 million in the same period of 2020. The increase in GMV was driven significantly by its ability to attract and retain users to its Cheers App through its professionally produced content and its ability to further enhance its product offerings.
The company has a strong commitment to its corporate mission, meticulous execution of growth strategies, methodical expansion in both overseas and domestic markets, proactive engagement of Generation Z users through innovative products, and prudent investment in sales and marketing initiatives. It plans to refine its competitive edge in content-driven e-commerce of premium lifestyle, deepen our expertise in integrating quality content with lifestyle commerce, and expand our brand influence among Generation Z consumers on a global basis.
During the first half year, the resurgence of Covid-19 and its Delta variant caused the Chinese government to impose travel restrictions within mainland China, particularly in the southern regions of the country.
The company temporarily suspended the production of its traditional “Cheers Series” TV programs, thus resulting in a decline in its cost of revenues during the first six month of 2021. Once the travel restrictions are eased, the company will resume its content production activities in the second half of this year.
As of June 30, 2021, the company had cash and cash equivalents of US$20.3 million, compared with US$17.7 million at the end of last year.
Blockchain and AI technologies
Since its establishment in 2016, Glory Star has pioneered a unique, new business model integrating e-commerce services with premium video content. With the use of blockchain and AI technologies in its systems, the company has become a leading online digital media and entertainment company in China, with a strong track record both in terms of viewership and production capabilities. The company launched its Cheers App in 2018 to integrate e-commerce services with professionally generated content (PGC).
During the first half, the company produced many more live streaming shows and started to provide title sponsor advertising services at a higher price point. It also spent substantially on the development of the Cheers Chat and Cheers Car.
The company plans to provide more user-generated content (UGC) by forming partnerships with other platforms. It will allow global users to upload their content to its video platforms in the fourth quarter of this year while users will receive advertising revenue or get rewards from viewers directly.
The company will also allow content providers to use its software-as-a-service (SaaS) supply chain system with the blockchain technology that will help them match with relevant merchandisers. Content providers will be able to share the revenue from the sales of products on their video accounts.
The company’s ability to integrate premium lifestyle content, including short videos, online variety shows, online dramas, live streaming, its Cheers lifestyle video series, e-Mall, and mobile app, along with innovative e-commerce offerings on its platform enables it to pursue its mission of enriching people’s lives.
Its large and active user base has created valuable engagement opportunities with consumers and enhanced platform stickiness with thousands of domestic and international brands.
Non-fungible token
Glory Star’s Naschain platform offers one-stop solutions, which include smart contract, multichain universe and cross-chain consensus mechanisms, to users with its blockchain technology. It can help e-shoppers trace the origins of the products, avoid buying counterfeit goods, lower their logistics costs and protect their privacy.
The company has signed an agreement with the Beijing Minsheng Art Museum to use the company’s non-fungible token (NFT) technology, which can be used in copy-rights’ registration, verification, transaction and valuation, to protect the intellectual property of the museum’s artworks. The company will be able to boost its market share by acquiring some NFT service providers.

Solis Capital Launches Verdantis.io Carbon Project Origination Platform for Central Asia
The dedicated platform, which is focused on high-integrity carbon projects, can identify, screen, and prepare early-stage and development-stage carbon projects for potential carbon stream financing, institutional capital, corporate carbon buyers, and long-term offtake.
United States, 13th Jun 2026 — Solis Capital today announced the launch of Verdantis.io, a new carbon project origination and development platform focused on high-integrity carbon projects across Central Asia. The dedicated platform can identify, screen, and prepare early-stage and development-stage carbon projects for potential carbon stream financing, institutional capital, corporate carbon buyers, and long-term offtake.
“We are a carbon stream financing vehicle,” explained Katy Goncharova of Solis Capital. “Through Verdantis.io, we provide upfront or milestone-based capital to project sponsors in exchange for future verified carbon credits, contracted carbon credit deliveries, or a share of future carbon credit sale proceeds.”
Verdantis.io will initially focus on Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. Target categories include afforestation, reforestation, improved agricultural land management, soil organic carbon, methane avoidance, ecosystem restoration, and other voluntary carbon market projects that can meet institutional buyer expectations.
Verdantis.io is designed to turn land-based and nature-based opportunities into diligence-ready project files with clear MRV pathways, registry strategy, PDD preparation, baseline assessment, additionality analysis, leakage controls, permanence planning and verification readiness. For these reasons, the platform will likely prove relevant to companies pursuing net-zero goals that want early access to high-integrity carbon credits and project-level visibility before credits are issued.
Verdantis.io is an initiative of Qarasu Astyk, through its subsidiary Pro Carbon, with FG Capital Advisors supporting the financing strategy, structuring, and arranger role. Qarasu Astyk is a Kazakhstan-based agribusiness group with operations tied to large-scale agriculture, land use, grain, livestock, and regional agricultural infrastructure. Pro Carbon is Qarasu Astyk’s dedicated carbon project development subsidiary. It supports carbon project preparation, including AFOLU, soil organic carbon, improved agricultural land management, grassland restoration, MRV planning, registry pathways, validation, verification, and carbon credit commercialization.
