2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

~~SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES~~

(a)

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. ~~GAAP”~~GAAP”). All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 have been prepared, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ~~“SEC”~~“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in annual condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 previously filed with the SEC on March ~~16, 2022.~~10, 2023.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) ~~are~~ necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and its unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, and its unaudited condensed consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, as applicable, have been made. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the fiscal year or any future periods.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with ~~U.S.~~ GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates using the currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may cause the Company to revise its estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the financial statements include: (i) useful lives and residual value of long-lived assets; (ii) the impairment of long-lived assets and investments; (iii) the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets; (iv) estimates of allowance for doubtful accounts, including loans receivable from third ~~parties~~parties; and ~~related parties,~~ (v) ~~valuation of Inventory, and (vi)~~ contingencies and litigation.

~~Foreign currency~~7

Foreign currency

The Company’s financial information is presented in U.S. dollars (“~~USD”~~USD”). The functional currency of the Company is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“~~RMB”~~RMB”), the currency of PRC. Any transactions which are denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the exchange rate quoted by the People’s Bank of China prevailing at the dates of the transactions, and exchange gains and losses are included in the statements of operations as foreign currency transaction gain or loss. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The financial information is first prepared in RMB and then translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for revenue and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

(b)

Convertible promissory notes

Convertible promissory notes are recognized initially at fair value, net of upfront fees, debt discounts or premiums, debt issuance costs and other incidental fees. Upfront fees, debt discounts or premiums, debt issuance costs and other incidental fees are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds received and the related accretion is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements over the estimated term of the facilities using the effective interest method.

(c)

Beneficial conversion feature

The Company evaluates the conversion feature to determine whether it was beneficial as described in ASC 470-20. The intrinsic value of a beneficial conversion feature inherent to a convertible note payable, which is not bifurcated and accounted for separately from the convertible promissory notes payable and may not be settled in cash upon conversion, is treated as a discount to the convertible promissory notes payable. This discount is amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the date the notes are due using the effective interest method. If the notes payable is retired prior to the end of their contractual term, the unamortized discount is expensed in the period of retirement to interest expense. In general, the beneficial conversion feature is measured by comparing the effective conversion price, after considering the relative fair value of detachable instruments included in the financing transaction, if any, to the fair value of the shares of common stock at the commitment date to be received upon conversion.

(d)

~~Inventory~~

Inventories of the Company are bulk commodities products, such as precious metals. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs of inventory are determined using the first-in first-out method. Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventories are made, if required, for decreases in sales prices, obsolescence or similar reductions in the estimated net realizable value.

We keep inventory for our direct sales model. Our inventory control policy requires us to monitor our inventory level and to manage obsolete inventory. Risk is passed to our customers (or to delivery service providers) upon the delivery of commodities to our customers. For a substantial majority of precious metal sold through our network, the whole transaction process takes from a few hours to a few days, thus our inventory risk is limited. For a small portion of our transactions under direct sales model, we hold inventories for repeating customers with relatively stable demands of large quantity based on our transaction data. We analyze historical sales data and days in inventory to establish inventory management plans. We monitor our real-time inventory volume and adjust our inventory management plans based on factors such as fluctuations in supply and prices, seasonality, and sales of a particular product.

Recent accounting pronouncement

In ~~June~~ ~~2016~~,October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) “~~~~Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC 326”)~~2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): ~~Measurement~~Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2021-08), which clarifies that an acquirer of ~~Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires the measurement~~a business should recognize and ~~recognition of expected credit losses~~measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new amendments are effective for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 “~~Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)~~~~” which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to~~ fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2022,~~2023, including interim periods within those fiscal ~~years, for public entities which meet~~years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the ~~definition~~effective date of ~~a smaller reporting company.~~the amendments, with early adoption permitted. The ~~Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2023. Management~~Group is currently evaluating the ~~effect~~impact of the ~~adoption of ASU 2016-13~~new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. ~~The effect will largely depend on the composition and credit quality of our investment portfolio and the economic conditions at the time of adoption.~~

In ~~January 2017,~~June 2022, the FASB issued ASU ~~2017-04, “Intangibles — Goodwill~~2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions”, which clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, ~~Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test~~therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. This guidance also requires certain disclosures for ~~Goodwill Impairment,” which simplifies how an entity~~equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. The new guidance is required to ~~test goodwill for impairment by eliminating step two~~be applied prospectively with any adjustments from the ~~goodwill impairment test. Step two~~adoption of the ~~goodwill impairment test measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing~~amendments recognized in earnings and disclosed on the ~~implied fair value~~date of ~~a reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying amount. As amended by ASU 2019-10, annual or interim goodwill impairment tests are performed in~~adoption. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after 15 December ~~15, 2022. We do~~2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on ~~our~~the financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

~~In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06 (“ASU 2020-06”)~~ “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities which meet the definition of a smaller reporting company and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company will adopt ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2024. Management is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on the consolidated financial statements. The effect will largely depend on the composition and terms of the financial instruments at the time of adoption.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

9. LEASES

~~LEASES~~

The Company leases ~~three~~two offices under non-cancelable operating leases, two leases with terms of 38 months and the remaining lease term of 24 months. The Company considers those renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the determination of the lease term and initial measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The amortization of right-of-use assets for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at the inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company discounts lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.

The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Supplemental consolidated balance sheet information related to the operating lease was as follows:

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022

14. INCOME TAXES

~~14.~~

~~INCOME TAXES~~

The Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC tax ~~law”~~law”), which was effective on January 1, 2008 and with the latest amended in December 2018, stipulates those domestic enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises are subject to a uniform tax rate of 25%. Under the PRC tax law, companies are required to make quarterly estimate payments based on 25% tax rate; companies that received preferential tax rates are also required to use a 25% tax rate for their installment tax payments. The overpayment, however, will not be refunded and can only be used to offset future tax liabilities.

The Company evaluates the level of authority for each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. Due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company estimates there will not be sufficient future income to realize the deferred tax assets for certain subsidiaries and a VIE. As of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had deferred tax assets of ~~$7,417,013~~$10,964,059 and ~~$4,878,864,~~$7,841,745, respectively. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

The Company does not anticipate any significant increase to its liability for unrecognized tax benefit within the next 12 months. The Company will classify interest and penalties related to income tax matters, if any, in income tax expense.

For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had current income tax expenses of ~~$3,190,396~~$3,444,639 and ~~$1,461,884,~~$3,190,396, respectively, and deferred income tax benefit of ~~$604,813~~$569,365 and ~~$617,582~~$604,813 in the connection of intangible assets generated from the acquisition of ~~Qianhai~~Shenzhen Baiyu Jucheng, respectively.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized and recorded as necessary in the provision for income taxes. The Company is subject to income taxes in the PRC. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB100,000. In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. There were no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next 12 months.

However, Harrison Fund had been reluctant to disclose related investment information to the Company and it was discovered that certain information presented on Harrison Fund’s brochure appeared to be problematic. The Company demanded a return on its investment from Harrison Fund. When the Company failed to obtain a response from Harrison Fund, it filed a complaint against Harrison Fund seeking to recover the $1,000,000 investment.

~~Due to the uncertainty arising from this pending legal proceeding, a full impairment has been applied against the Company’s investment in financial products.~~None.

~~RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES~~

(1)

Credit risk

Assets that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables with its customers. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit risk is their carrying amount as of the balance sheet dates. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, approximately ~~$1.89~~$0.10 million was primarily deposited in financial institutions located in Mainland China, which were uninsured by the government authority. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Company primarily place cash deposits with large financial institutions in China, which management believes are of high credit quality. The Company considers the credit standing of customers when making sales to manage the credit risk. Considering the nature of the business at current, the Company believes that the credit risk is not material to its operations.

The Company’s operations are carried out in Mainland China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, rates and methods of taxation, and the extraction of mining resources, among other factors.

(2)

Liquidity risk

The Company is also exposed to liquidity risk which is the risk that it is unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet its commitments and business needs. Liquidity risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. When necessary, the Company will turn to other financial institutions and the owners to obtain short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.

On May 15, 2023, the Company received a notification letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that the minimum bid price per share for its common shares has been below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days and the Company therefore no longer meets the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

The notification received has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has until November 13, 2023 to regain compliance. If at any time during such 180-day period the closing bid price of the Company’s common shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance.

For example, these events could cause a temporary closure of the ~~PRC economy. In light of the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation relating to the spread of COVID-19,~~facilities we have taken temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, our customers, and the communities in which we participate, which could negatively impact our business. To this end, we are evaluating alternative working arrangements, including requiring all employees to work remotely, and we have suspended all non-essential traveluse for our ~~employees and limiting in-person work-related meetings.~~

In addition, with the extended Chinese business shutdowns that resulted from the outbreak of COVID-19, we may experience delays or the inability to service our customers on a timely basis in our commodities trading business.

~~While~~19

In particular, the ~~potential~~global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic continued to have a significant negative impact on the global economy in fiscal year 2023, which has adversely affected our business and financial results. From early 2020 to early 2023, the COVID-19 pandemic triggered a series of lock-downs, social distancing requirements and travel restrictions that significantly and negatively affected our various businesses in China, particularly our China commerce and local consumer services businesses. Our key international commerce businesses also experienced a negative impact. The COVID-19 pandemic also presented challenges to our business operations as well as the business operations of our merchants, business partners and other participants in our ecosystem, such as closure of offices and facilities, disruptions to or even suspensions of normal business and logistics operations, as well as restrictions on travel. Starting in December 2022, China has lifted most of the COVID-19-induced travel restrictions and quarantine requirements. From late December 2022 to early 2023, certain parts of China experienced COVID-19 resurgence, which caused significant disruption to our business operations in these regions.

It is not possible to determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business operations and financial results going forward, which is highly dependent on numerous factors, including the frequency, duration and spread of the outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic (including any new variant with different characteristics) in China or elsewhere, actions taken by governments, the response of businesses and individuals to the pandemic, the impact of the pandemic on business and economic ~~impact brought by~~conditions in China and globally, consumer demand, our ability and the ~~duration~~ability of merchants, retailers, logistics service providers and other participants in our ecosystem to continue operations in areas affected by the pandemic and our efforts and expenditures to support merchants and partners and ensure the safety of our employees.

While it is too early to tell whether COVID-19 will have a material effect on our business over time, we continue to monitor the situation as it unfolds.

Risks related to industry

The Company sells precious products to customers through our industrial relationship. Sales contracts are entered into with each individual customer. The Company is the principal under the precious metal direct sales model as the Company controls the products with the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the precious metal products before they are sold to its customers. The Company has a single performance obligation to sell metal products to the buyers. Revenue for precious metal trading under direct sales model is recognized at a point in time when the single performance obligation is satisfied when the products are delivered to the customer. We are under the risk of economic environment in general and specific to the precious metal industry and to China as well as changes to the existing governmental regulations.

Commodity trading in China is subject to seasonal fluctuations, which may cause our revenues to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. We generally experience less user traffic and purchase orders during national holidays in China, particularly during the Chinese New Year holiday season in the first quarter of each year. Consequently, the first quarter of each calendar year generally contributes the smallest portion of our annual revenues. Furthermore, as we are substantially dependent on sales of precious metals, our quarterly revenues and results of operations are likely to be affected by price fluctuation under macroeconomic circumstances these years.

As our revenues have grown rapidly in recent years, these factors are difficult to discern based on our historical results, which, therefore, should not be relied on to predict our future performance. Our financial condition and results of operations for future periods may continue to fluctuate. As a result, the trading price of our stock may fluctuate from time to time due to seasonality.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company had two business lines, which are the commodities trading business and supply chain management services.

Commodities trading business

The commodity trading business primarily involves purchasing non-ferrous metal products, such as aluminum ingots, copper, silver, and gold, from metal and mineral suppliers and then selling to customers. In connection with the Company’s commodity sales, in order to help customers to obtain sufficient funds to purchase various metal products and also help upstream metal and mineral suppliers to sell their metal products, the Company launched its supply chain management service in December 2019. The Company primarily generates revenues from selling bulk non-ferrous commodity products and providing related supply chain management services in the PRC.

For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company recorded revenue of ~~$138,540,090~~$102,937,623 from commodities trading business and ~~$1,190,976~~$64,037 from commodity distribution services and other related services, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded revenue of $37,847,831 from commodities trading business and $40,724 from commodity distribution services and other related services, respectively.

The Company sources bulk commodity products from non-ferrous metal and mines or its designated distributors and then sells to manufacturers that need these metals in large quantities. The Company works with upstream suppliers in the sourcing of commodities. Major suppliers include various metal and mineral suppliers such as ~~Kunsteel Group, Baosteel Group, Aluminum Corporate of China Limited, Yunnan Benyuan, Yunnan Tin,~~Xiamen Huarui Zhongying Trading Co., Ltd., Ningbo Dajian Metal Materials Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Fuying Industrial Co., Ltd. and ~~Shanghai Copper.~~Qingdao Jikai New Material Technology Co., Ltd. Potential customers include ~~large infrastructure~~ companies such as ~~China National Electricity, Datang Power, China Aluminum Foshan International Trade, Tooke Investment (China), CSSC International Trade~~Hainan Lisheng Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd., ~~Shenye Group,~~Shenzhen Jintongyuan Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Fuxinbao Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. and ~~Keliyuan.~~Shenzhen Jingdexuan Trading Co., Ltd.

Supply Chain Management Services and other related services

We offer a distribution service to bulk suppliers of precious metals by acting as a sales intermediary, procuring small to medium-sized buyers through our own professional sales team and channels and distributing the bulk precious metals of the suppliers. Upon executing a purchase order from our sourced buyers, we charge the suppliers with a commission fee ranging from 1% to 2% of the distribution order, depending on the size of the order. We also offer some other supply chain management services business. For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company earned other supply chain management services and other related services revenue of ~~$1,190,976~~$64,037 with 189 third-party customers, compared with a commodity distribution services revenue of ~~$2,515,919 with 29~~$1,190,976 to 16 third-party customers for the same period ended September 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Competition

The Company mainly competes against other large domestic commodity metal product trading service providers such as Xiamen International Trade and Yijian Shares. Currently, the principal competitive factors in the non-ferrous metals commodities trading business are price, product availability, quantity, service, and financing terms for purchases and sales of commodities.

Applicable Government Regulations

Shenzhen Baiyu Jucheng has obtained all material approvals, permits, licenses and certificates required for our metal product trading operations, including registrations from the local business and administrative department authorizing the purchase of raw materials.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operation

The commodities trading industry has been experiencing decreasing demand as a result of China’s overall economic slowdown. We expect competition in the commodities trading business to persist and intensify.

We have a limited operating history, having just started our commodities trading business in late November 2019. We believe our future success depends on our ability to significantly increase sales as well as maintain profitability from our operations. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects. You should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and challenges encountered by a company with a limited operating history in an emerging and rapidly evolving industry. These risks and challenges include, among other things,

	●	inflation, which is expected to cause our suppliers to raise prices that we may not be able to pass on to our customers, which could adversely impact our business, including competitive position, market share and margins;

	●	~~market rates of interest, any increase in which would increase the interest payable on some of our borrowings and adversely impact our cash flow;~~

●

our ability to continue our growth as well as maintain profitability;

●

preservation of our competitive position in the commodities trading industry in China;

●

our ability to implement our strategies and make timely and effective responses to competition and changes in customer preferences; and

●

recruitment, training and retaining of qualified managerial and other ~~personnel; and~~personnel.

●

~~the impact of strict governmental policies relating to coronavirus on our operations and the overall conditions of the markets we operate.~~

Our business requires a significant amount of capital in large part due to our need to purchase a bulk volume of commodities and expand our business in existing markets and to additional markets where we currently do not have operations.

Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we generate revenue from two sources, including (1) revenue from sales of commodity products, and (2) revenue from supply chain management services. Total revenue decreased by ~~$16,885,251~~$3,976,829 or ~~31%~~10%, from ~~$54,773,806 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to~~ $37,888,555 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to $33,991,726 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, among which revenue from commodity trading and supply chain management accounted for 99.9% and 0.1% of our total revenue for the three months ended September 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

~~The decrease of revenue~~(1) Revenue from sales of commodity products is mainly due to COVID-19, as well as the depreciation of RMB against USD during the three months ended September 30, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, our operations in Shanghai were temporarily affected due to the sporadic outbreak of COVID-19, which resulted in a decrease in revenue for the same period. But the extent to which COVID-19 affects our future results will depend on many factors and future developments, including new information about COVID-19 and any new government regulations which may emerge to contain the virus, among others.

As a result, our operations in Shanghai at the beginning of 2022 were temporarily affected for about two weeks primarily attributable to the closure of our warehouse as local authorities in Shanghai imposed strict lock-down measures since March 2022 and have been recovered subsequently since the lock-down restrictions in Shanghai have been gradually lifted.

Critical Accounting Policies

Please refer to Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for details of our critical accounting policies.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Certain personnel primarily responsible for preparing our financial statements require additional requisite levels of knowledge, experience and training in the application of U.S. GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. The management thought that in light of the inexperience of our accounting staff with respect to the requirements of U.S. GAAP-based reporting and SEC rules and regulations, we did not maintain effective controls and did not implement adequate and proper supervisory review to ensure that significant internal control deficiencies can be detected or prevented.

Management’s assessment of the control deficiency over accounting and finance personnel as of September 30, ~~2022~~2023 includes:

●

There is a lack of formal procedures for handling different types of revenue recognition.

●

~~Company management conducted extensive transactions with related parties without adequate control by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors.~~

●

There is a lack of procedures and documentation for dealing with related parties.

●

There was no accountant with adequate U.S. GAAP knowledge working in the Company’s Accounting Department.

●

The Company has insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting, which led to an inadequate financial statement closing process.

Based on the above factors, management concluded that the control deficiency over accounting and finance personnel was the material weakness as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, as our accounting staff continues to lack sufficient U.S. GAAP experience and requires further substantial training.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls. Readers are cautioned that our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control system, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is also based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any control design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
