INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
PSM-ZJK Fasteners (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of PSM-ZJK Fasteners (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the two year period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two year period ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provided a reasonable basis for our opinion.

PSM-ZJK FASTENERS (SHENZHEN) CO., LTD.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All amounts in U.S. dollars, except for the number of shares data, unless otherwise stated).
1. ORGANIZATION
PSM-ZJK Fasteners (ShenZhen) Co., Ltd. (“PSM-ZJK”, or the “Company”) was established on September 20, 2019 by BULTEN Fasteners (Wuxi) Co., Ltd.(“BULTEN Wuxi”) (holding 51% of the shares) and Shenzhen Zhongjinke Hardware Products Co., Ltd. (“Zhongjinke Shenzhen”) (holding 49% of the shares). The Company principally engages in manufacturing and trading a broad portfolio of hardware.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management of the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company’s management based on their estimates on historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Significant accounting estimates include, but not limited to revenue recognition, allowance for credit loss, inventory write-off and reserve, the useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| | (c) | Foreign currency translations and transactions |
The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar (“US$”), and the functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”).
The Company’s financial statements are reported using U.S. Dollars (“US$”). The results of operations and the statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. The equity denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution.
Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, 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. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) included in statements of changes in equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s statements of income and comprehensive income.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting.
Translation of amounts from RMB into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates:
| | | December 31, 2022 | | December 31, 2023 |
| | | Year-end spot rate | | Average rate | | Years-ended spot rate | | Average rate |
| US$ against RMB | | | US$1=RMB6.8972 | | | | US$1=RMB6.7518 | | | | US$1=RMB7.099 | | | | US$1=RMB7.0896 | |
| | (d) | Concentration of credit risk |
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to the concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, and other receivables and prepayments. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the Company places its cash with major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management considers to be of high credit quality. The Company maintains most bank accounts in PRC. Cash balances in bank accounts in PRC are protected under Deposit Protection Scheme in accordance with the Deposit Protection Scheme Ordinance. The maximum protection is up to RMB500,000 per depositor per Scheme member, including both principal and interest. Concentration of credit risks with respect to accounts receivable, and other receivables and prepayments, to manage credit risk, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ and suppliers’ financial condition. There is no significant credit risk for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statements information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Based on the criteria established by ASC 280, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. As a whole and hence, the Company has only one reportable segment. The Company does not distinguish between markets or segments for internal reporting. As the Company’s long-lived assets are substantially located in the PRC, no segment geographical information is presented.
| | (g) | Fair value measurement and financial instruments |
The Company applies a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under this hierarchy, there are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| | ● | Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| | ● | Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical asset or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. |
| | ● | Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment.
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, which consist of cash, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Cash consists of cash held in banks, which is highly liquid and are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.
| | (i) | Accounts receivable, net |
On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 326 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”) using the modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit. Upon adoption, the Company changed its impairment model to utilize a current expected credit losses model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The Company had not recorded an adjustment to the opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2023 due to immaterial cumulative impact of adopting ASC 326.
Account receivables are stated net of provision of credit losses. The Company has developed a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model based on historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of its customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from customers. The Company considers historical collection rates, current financial status, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating for current expected credit losses.
No allowance for credit loss was made for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or realizable value. Cost is principally determined on the weighted average basis.
The Company periodically performs an analysis of inventory to determine obsolete or slow-moving inventory and determine if its cost exceeds the estimated market value. Write-off of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are recorded based on management’s analysis of inventory levels.
The provision made for inventories were US$66,706 and nil for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
| | (k) | Property and equipment, net |
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any, and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its intended use. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
| Category | Useful lives |
| Machinery and equipment | 5 years |
| Electronic office equipment | 5 years |
Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expenses as incurred, whereas the cost of renewals and betterment that extends the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Retirements, sales and disposals of assets are recorded by removing the costs, accumulated depreciation and impairment with any resulting gain or loss recognized in the statements of income.
| | (l) | Impairment of long-lived assets |
Long-lived assets are included in impairment evaluations when events and circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC No. 360, “Property and Equipment”, the Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets by first grouping its long-lived assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the asset group) and, secondly, estimating the undiscounted future cash flows that are directly associated with and expected to arise from the use of and eventual disposition of such asset group. The Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows over the remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge to the extent the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company determines fair value through quoted market prices in active markets or, if quotations of market prices are unavailable, through the performance of internal analysis using a discounted cash flow methodology. The undiscounted and discounted cash flow analyses based on a number of estimates and assumptions, including the expected period over which the asset will be utilized, projected future operating results of the asset group, discount rate and long-term growth rate. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized as of December 31, 2022 and 2023.
Effective from January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Lease (FASB ASC Topic 842) using a modified retrospective transition method which allowed the Company not to recast comparative periods presented in its financial statements.
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.
The operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease right-of-use of assets
Operating right-of-use of asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the operating lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.
Operating lease liabilities
Operating lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Operating lease liabilities that become due within one year of the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise fixed lease payments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and any exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.
Operating lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate for its leases at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments when the implicit rate is not readily determinable in the lease. In estimating its incremental borrowing rate, the Company considers its credit rating and publicly available data of borrowing rates for loans of similar amount, currency and term as the lease.
It is re-measured when there is a change in future lease payments, if there is a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if there is any change in the Company assessment of option purchases, contract extensions or termination options.
Leases that have a term of 12 months or less at the commencement date (“short-term leases”) are not included in operating right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities.
| | | (n) | Value-added taxes and surcharges |
The Company is subject to VAT and related surcharges on revenues generated from product sales. Revenue from sales of products is generally subject to VAT at applicable tax rates, and subsequently paid to PRC tax authorities after netting input VAT on purchases. The excess of output VAT over input VAT is reflected tax payable. The Company reports revenue net of PRC’s VAT for all the periods presented in the Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The Company is subject to the PRC’s VAT rate of 13% for selling products for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.
Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related party also include principal owners of the Company, its managements, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all significant related party transactions.
Product sales
Effective with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” and the associated ASUs (collectively, “Topic 606”) on January 1, 2020, the Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps:
(1) identify the contract(s) with a customer,
(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,
(3) determine the transaction price,
(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and
(5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company adopted the ASU since January 1, 2020 for all revenue contracts with customers using the modified retrospective approach, while prior periods’ amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting under ASC 605. The Company evaluated that the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements was immaterial.
Product revenue recognition
The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers is derived from product revenue principally from the sales of metal stamping and mechanical original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) and electric OEM products directly to other consumer electronics product manufacturers. The Company sells goods to the customer under sales contracts or by purchase orders. The Company has determined there to be one performance obligation for each of the sales contracts. The performance obligations are considered to be fulfilled and revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods. The major goods delivery channel of the Company is delivering goods to customers’ predetermined location, and the Company has satisfied the contracts’ performance obligations when the goods have been delivered and relevant shipping documents have been collected by the Company.
The transaction price is generally in the form of a fixed price which is agreed with the customer at contract inception. Revenue is recorded net of sales return, surcharges and value-added tax of gross sales. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the sales contracts and purchase orders.
The Company’s payment terms are all within 90 days and its sales arrangements do not have any material financing components.
A contract asset is recorded when the Company has transferred products to the customer before payment is received or is due, and the Company’s right to consideration is conditional on future performance in the contract. The Company did not recognize any contract asset as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023. The timing between the recognition of revenue and receipt of payment is not significant. A contract liability exists when the Company has received consideration but has not transferred the related goods or services to the customer. The Company did not recognize any contract liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023.
Return Rights & Warranty
Regardless of delivery channels, the Company generally provides warranty period of one year and customers are required to perform product quality check upon acceptance of delivery. The warranty covers only production defects and offers to replace the defective products with new products during warranty period. Customers do not have the option to purchase the warranty separately, nor the warrant provides a service in addition to assurance. Accordingly, warranty costs are treated as a cost of fulfillment subject to accrual, rather than a performance obligation. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the Company did not accrue any liability related to the warranty for any product quality issues on the balance sheets.
Principal vs agent accounting
The Company records all product revenue on a gross basis as the Company acts as the principal. To determine whether the Company is an agent or principal in the sales of products, the Company considers the following indicators: the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods or services, is subject to inventory risks before the specified goods have been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customers, and has discretion in establishing the price of the specified goods.
Cost of sales mainly consist of raw materials, direct and indirect labor and related benefits, and manufacturing overhead that is directly attributable to the production process.
| | (r) | Selling and marketing expenses |
Selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for sales and marketing personnel, (ii) sales commission paid to increase sales and expand the market, (iii) business entertainment expenses, and (iv) freight for selling activities. There is no advertising fees incurred for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Freight costs are not considered a separate performance obligation within revenue recognition, while freight costs are expensed when incurred and are included in selling and marketing expenses. Freight costs were US$234,724 and US$283,939 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
| | (s) | General and administrative expenses |
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for administrative personnel, (ii) professional service fees, (iii) patent fees (iv) depreciation expenses.
Government grants are recognized as the compensation for expenses incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company by local government (the Shenzhen Municipal Government). The government evaluates the Company’s eligibility for the grants on a regular and annual basis based on local government’s budget and grant guidelines, and then relevant authorities credit these grants to the Company.
Government grants for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs or obligation are recognized in the Company’s statements of income and comprehensive income when the grant is received. The government grants received by the Company from Shenzhen Municipal Government were US$4,502 and US$14,105 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Comprehensive income includes net income and foreign currency translation adjustments and is presented net of tax.
The Company presents the components of net income, the components of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards using enacted tax rates that will be in effect for the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against the amount of deferred tax assets that it determines is not more likely than not of being realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties, if any, within income tax expenses.
There were no uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
| | (w) | Commitments and contingencies |
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to commitments and contingencies, including operating lease commitments and legal proceedings. The Company recognizes a liability for such contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Company may consider many factors in making these assessments on liability for contingencies, including historical and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter.
| | (x) | Recent accounting pronouncements |
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326)”, which will require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. Further, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, ASU 2020-05, ASU 2020-10, ASU 2020-11, ASU 2021-02 and ASU 2022-02 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. For all other entities, the amendments for ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is on a modified retrospective basis. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 from January 1, 2022 and the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements was immaterial.
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832)—Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures about transactions with a government that have been accounted for by analogizing to a grant or contribution accounting model to increase transparency about (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for the transactions, and (3) the effect of the transactions on an entity’s financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities within their scope for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early application of the amendments is permitted. The Company has adopted the ASU from January 2022 and the Company evaluated the adoption has no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued ASUs by the FASB but not yet effective accounting statements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of cash flows.

The Company’s assessment is that it is not more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized.
Under the PRC Income Tax Law and the implementation rules, profits of the PRC entities earned on or after January 1, 2008 and distributed by the PRC entities to the Company are subject to a withholding tax at a rate of 10%, unless the Company will be deemed as a resident enterprise for tax purposes. Since the Company intends to reinvest the earnings of the PRC entities in operations in the PRC, the PRC entities do not intend to declare dividends to their immediate non-PRC established holding companies in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, no deferred taxation on undistributed earnings of the PRC entities has been recognized as of December 31, 2023.
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 its withholding agent. The statute of limitations extends to five years under special circumstances, which are not clearly defined. In the case of a related party transaction, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion. The Company did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to underpayment of taxes in the statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. And there were no completed or ongoing examinations by tax authorities as of December 31, 2023.
In accordance with Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2, the PRC tax authorities have the right to deem the Company for a tax amount based on the transfer pricing contemporaneous documentations (the “Contemporaneous Documentations”) or a basis that they considered reasonable.
Uncertain tax positions
The Company evaluate each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measure the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
9. LEASES
The Company has one operating lease agreement as a lessee to lease certain plants from Shenzhen Zhongjinke Hardware Products Co., Ltd., which is the shareholder of the Company. The operating lease agreement was started from January 1, 2022, and will expire on June 30, 2024, the lease installments were paid monthly and the remaining lease payments were discounted using the incremental borrowing rate of 4.9%, the monthly rent was US$5,898 from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 and US$6,178 from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option that is reasonably certain of being exercised.
Supplemental balance sheet information related to operating lease was as follows:
| | | As of December 31, |
