Exhibit 4: Competitive Benchmarking Matrix (Score: 1-5)

Huabao New Energy's financial performance reflects the volatile nature of a growth-stage consumer electronics company navigating macroeconomic headwinds. Revenue grew from RMB 1.02 billion in 2020 to RMB 3.606 billion in 2024, a CAGR of 37%. The company returned to profitability in 2024 with a net profit of RMB 172 million after a loss of RMB 174 million in 2023, driven by cost optimization and sales recovery in North America.

Gross margin improved from 39.5% in 2023 to 44.1% in 2024, reflecting the benefits of the M2C direct-sales model and favorable lithium battery costs (which declined to $108/kWh globally in 2025, per BloombergNEF). However, the 2025 preliminary results indicate margin pressure from increased promotional spending and tariff-related cost increases, with gross margin declining to 37.6% and net profit falling 92.8% year-over-year to RMB 17 million.

Exhibit 5: Huabao New Energy Revenue & Net Profit Trend (2020-2024)

Energy storage products (portable power stations and home backup systems) contributed 89.3% of revenue in 2024, with the remainder coming from photovoltaic solar panels (10.7%). By channel, online sales (Jackery.com, Amazon, other e-commerce platforms) accounted for 79.1% of revenue, while offline retail contributed 20.9%. The online channel's dominance reflects the company's M2C strategy, which captures higher margins and direct customer relationships compared to wholesale distribution.

The most significant external risk facing Jackery is the escalation of U.S. tariffs on Chinese lithium-ion batteries. Effective January 2026, the combined tariff rate reached approximately 82%, comprising a 3.4% base MFN duty, a 54% reciprocal tariff, and a 25% Section 301 surcharge. This represents a sevenfold increase from the approximately 11% effective rate in 2024. For a battery pack with a $100 factory price, the tariff alone now amounts to approximately $82, compared to roughly $11 previously.

Jackery's product ecosystem spans four tiers. The Entry tier (100-300Wh, $150-350) includes the Explorer 100 Plus and 300 Plus, targeting casual campers and emergency phone charging. The Core tier (500-1500Wh, $400-1,200) represents the volume drivers, including the Explorer 1000 v2 with LFP battery technology and 4,000 charge cycles. The Pro tier (2000-5000Wh, $1,500-3,500) serves home backup and extended off-grid use, while the Home Backup tier (5-60kWh expandable) represents the strategic growth vector.

At CES 2026, Jackery unveiled three significant new products signaling a strategic pivot beyond portable power: the Explorer 1500 Ultra (IP65-rated rugged power station for extreme environments), the Solar Gazebo (a 2,000W solar canopy generating up to 10kWh per day), and the Solar Mars Bot (an autonomous solar-powered robot with AI-enhanced computer vision). These innovations demonstrate Jackery's ambition to expand from portable power devices to an integrated home energy ecosystem.

Jackery's proprietary ChargeShield technology integrates 62-layer battery protection mechanisms, 12 protection algorithms, and 4 physical safety barriers. This system extends battery cycle life by up to 50% compared to standard BMS implementations. The company's solar panel technology achieves 25% conversion efficiency with IBC (Interdigitated Back Contact) cells, delivering approximately 50% more power than conventional panels in low-light conditions.

The parent company holds over 2,248 patents globally and has received more than 100 international design and innovation awards, including CES Innovation Awards, Red Dot Design Awards, and IF Design Awards. R&D investment reached RMB 177.8 million in 2025, representing 4.3% of revenue, with the R&D team expanding to 330 personnel (up 29.4% year-over-year).

Jackery employs a digital-first, influencer-heavy marketing strategy that aligns with its target demographic of outdoor enthusiasts and tech-savvy millennials. Influencer marketing accounts for a significant portion of the marketing budget, with YouTube contributing 38.5% of influencer-generated content, Instagram 31.7%, and TikTok 29.9%. The United States represents 50.4% of influencer content geography, reflecting the brand's prioritization of its largest market.

The company's M2C (Manufacturer-to-Consumer) direct sales model eliminates traditional wholesale intermediaries, enabling higher margins and direct customer data collection. Jackery operates 60+ localized independent websites across global markets and maintains flagship stores on Amazon, where it is consistently ranked as the #1 seller in the "Outdoor Generator" category. The brand's customer service model emphasizes 24/7 chat and email support with a claimed 95% resolution rate within 24 hours.

Exhibit 7: Portable Power Station Use Case Segmentation

Jackery faces a multi-dimensional risk landscape that requires proactive strategic mitigation. The following table summarizes the eight most critical risk factors, their likelihood, potential impact, and recommended mitigation strategies.

A favorable long-term trend for the industry is the sustained decline in lithium-ion battery costs. According to BloombergNEF, average battery pack prices fell to $108/kWh in 2025 (down 8% year-over-year), while stationary storage packs dropped to $70/kWh (down 45%). China's domestic pack prices are even lower at approximately $84/kWh. This cost deflation partially offsets the tariff burden and enables manufacturers to maintain competitive pricing while preserving margins.
