The order
Yoozoo disclosed in a Sunday exchange filing that one of its units booked a 1.43 billion yuan order for flash-memory parts. The buyer did not identify itself.
The purchase was made on Nov. 12 and is slated to be fulfilled on Nov. 20. The contract sits with Zhicun Heying (Shenzhen) Technology Co.
How it hits the books
Despite its size, Yoozoo said the agreement is unlikely to materially influence revenue or the company's financial data. The company noted the unit would require heavy procurement funding upfront, which it said is likely to generate significant financing costs that could affect net profit this year.
Why Yoozoo is in chips
Yoozoo moved into flash-memory components in September. Its wholly owned subsidiary acquired 51% of Zhicun Heying via a capital increase, giving the game developer a toehold in the hardware supply chain.
