EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 4, 2020 the Securities and Exchange Commission issued an Order (Release No. 34-88318) under Section 36 of the Exchange Act granting exemptions from specified provisions of the Exchange Act and certain rules thereunder (the “Order”). The Order provides that a registrant subject to the reporting requirements of Exchange Act Section 13(a) or 15(d), and any person required to make any filings with respect to such a registrant, is exempt from any requirement to file or furnish materials with the Commission under Exchange Act Sections 13(a), 13(f), 13(g), 14(a), 14(c), 14(f), 15(d) and Regulations 13A, Regulation 13D-G (except for those provisions mandating the filing of Schedule 13D or amendments to Schedule 13D), 14A, 14C and 15D, and Exchange Act Rules 13f-1, and 14f-1, as applicable, where certain conditions are satisfied.

As a result of the global outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, the Company had to spend additional time in preparing for the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and was unable to timely prepare this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. Based on the foregoing, on May 15, 2020, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to avail itself of a 45-day extension to file this Form 10-Q relying on the exemptions provided by the Order. This Form 10-Q is being filed in reliance on the Order.

(d)(d)Leasing business asset,Accounts receivable, net

 

Leasing business asset, net, represents the automobiles thatAccounts receivable are underlying our automotive lease contracts and is reported at cost, less accumulated depreciation and net of impairment charges and origination fees or costs. Depreciation of vehicles is recorded on a straight-line basis to an estimated residual value over the useful life of nine years. We periodically evaluate our depreciation rate for leased vehicles based on expected residual values and adjust depreciation expense over the remaining life of the lease if deemed necessary.

We have significant investments in the residual values of the assets in our operating lease portfolio. The residual values represent an estimate of the values of the assets at the endgross amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts and do not bear interest. The Company provides commodity trading business customers with credit term ranging between one week to one month, depending on credit assessment of the lease contracts. At contract inception, we determine pricing based on the projected residual value of the lease vehicle. This evaluation is primarily based on a proprietary model, which includes variables such as age, expected mileage, seasonality, segment factors, vehicle type, economic indicators, production cycle, automotive manufacturer incentives, and shifts in used vehicle supply. This internally-generated data is compared against third-party, independent data for reasonableness. Realization of the residual values is dependent on our future ability to market the vehicles under the prevailing market conditions. Over the life of the lease, we evaluatecustomers. Management reviews the adequacy of our estimatethe allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history and the residual value andcurrent economic conditions to make adjustments toin the depreciation rates toallowance when necessary. Account balances are charged off against the extent the expected valueallowance after all means of the vehicle at lease termination changes. In addition to estimating the residual value at lease termination, we also evaluate the current value of the leasing business asset and test for impairment to the extent necessary when there is an indication of impairment based on market considerations and portfolio characteristics. Impairment is determined to exist if fair value of the leased asset is less than carrying value and it is determined that the net carrying value is not recoverable. The net carrying value of a leased asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows expected to result from the lease paymentscollection have been exhausted and the estimated residual value upon eventual disposition. If our leasing business assets arepotential for recovery is considered to be impaired,remote. As of June 30, 2020, the impairment is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value as estimated by discounted cash flows. We recognize rental income on our operating leases when collection is reasonably assured.Company determined no allowances for doubtful accounts were necessary for accounts receivable.

ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. This new guidance provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. Under the new guidance, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new guidance requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company has assessed the impact of the new guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations.

(g)(h)Recent accounting pronouncement

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. This ASU requires 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. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of the Company’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Its mandatory effective dates are as follows: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; 2. All other public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 3. All other entities (private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and employee benefit plans) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On November 15, 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards (including ASC 326 Financial instrument-credit losses) and amends the effective dates to give implementation relief to certain type of entities: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be Smaller Reporting Companies, or SRC, as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 2. All other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in the Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments effective January 1, 2023, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements.

10

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

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. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital.  ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions.   For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities which meet the definition of a smaller reporting company  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.

(h)Risks and uncertainties

 

1)Credit risk

 

Assets that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit risk is their carrying amount as at the balance sheet dates. As of March 31,June 30, 2020, approximately $17,187$16,803 was deposited with a bank in the United States which was insured by the government up to $250,000. As of March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximately $9,914$1,470,791 and $2,399,300, respectively, were 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’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.

 

(b)2)Liquidity risk

 

The Company is also exposed to liquidity risk which is 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.

 

(c)3)Foreign currency risk

 

Substantially all of the Company’s operating activities and the Company’s major assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, except for the cash deposit of approximately $17,187$16,803 which was in U.S. dollars as of March 31,June 30, 2020, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts.

 

The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market. Where there is a significant change in value of RMB, the gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of a foreign subsidiary will be significant affected.

 

(d)4)VIE risk

 

It is possible that the Company’s VIE agreements with Beijing Tianxing and Huamucheng would not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts were to find that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event that the Company were unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, the Company would not be able to exert effective control over the VIEs.VIE. Consequently, the VIEs’VIE’s results of operations, assets and liabilities would not be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If such were the case, the Company’s cash flows, financial position, and operating performance would be materially adversely affected.

 


3.LIQUIDITY

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $4.50 million, and reported cash outflows of approximately $2.61 million from operating activities. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had cash balance of $1.5 million. These factors caused concern as to the Company’s liquidity as of June 30, 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

In assessing the Company’s liquidity, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash and its ability to generate sufficient cash flow in the future to support its operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company’s liquidity needs are to meet its working capital requirements and operating expenses obligations.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a positive working capital of approximately $85.4 million, among which the Company had a loan due from a customer of approximately $79.4 million for the purpose of developing supply chain financing business. Pursuant to the loan agreement, the loan term for each individual loan was twelve months from disbursement, but in practice the loans are revolving every 3 – 4 months. From July 1, 2020 to the date of the report, the Company collected approximately RMB 507.63 million, or $71.80 million from the customer.

Going forward, the Company plans to fund its operations through revenue generated from its commodity trading business, operating lease income, funds from its private placements as well as financial support commitments from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and major shareholders.

Based on above operating plan, the management believes that the Company will continue as a going concern in the following 12 months.

On January 22, 2020, the Company entered into certain securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, at a per share purchase price of $0.90. The transaction was consummated on March 23, 2020 by issuance of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company received proceeds of $13,500,000 in April 2020.

 

Convertible Promissory Notes 

On January 22, 2020, the Company also agreed to sell unsecured senior convertible promissory notes (“Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $30,000,000 accompanied by warrants to purchase 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes at an exercise price of $1.80.$1.80 (the “2020 Warrants” ). On March 23, 2020, the Company issued the Notes and Warrants to the investors. In April 2020, the Company received the proceeds of $30,000,000 from the issuance of Notes and 2020 Warrants.

 

The Notes have a maturity date of 12 months with an interest rate of 7.5% per annum. Holders have the right to convert all or any part of the Notes into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share 30 days after its date of issuance. The Company retains the right to prepay the Note at any time prior to conversion with an amount in cash equal to 107.5% of the principal that the Company elects to prepay.

 

The 2020 Warrants are exercisable immediately upon the date of issuance at the exercise price of $1.80 for cash (the Warrant Shares“Warrant Shares”). The 2020 Warrants may also be exercised cashless if at any time after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date. There is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant Shares, if exercised, The 2020 Warrants will expire five years from date of issuance. The 2020 Warrants are subject to anti-dilution provisions to reflect stock dividends and splits or other similar transactions. The 2020 Warrants contain a mandatory exercise right for the Company to force exercise of the 2020 Warrants if the Company’s common stock trades at or above $3.00 for 20 consecutive trading days, provided, among other things, that the shares issuable upon exercise of the are registered or may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 and the daily trading volume exceeds 300,000 shares of Common stock per trading day on each trading day in a period of 20 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable date.

The Company applied Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of the 2020 Warrants at $3.42 million. Significant estimates and assumptions used included stock price on January 22, 2020 of $1.52 per share, risk-free interest rate of six month of 1.52%, time to maturity of 2.5 years, and volatility of 25.99%. 


10.CAPITAL TRANSACIONS (CONTINUED)

The proceeds of $30 million must be allocated between the Note and the 2020 Warrants, based on the relative fair value. The ratio of the relative fair values of the Notes and the Warrants was 89.8% to 10.2%. After allocating 10.2%, or $3.06 million, of the proceeds to the 2020 Warrants, the Company estimated the embedded conversion option within the Notes is beneficial to the holders, because the effective conversion price was $1.35 ($27.0 million/20 million shares), which was below the Company’s share price of $1.52 on January 22, 2020. The fair value of this beneficial conversion feature was estimated to be $3.4 million, and was recorded to debt discount, to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Note.

The total Notes discount was recognized at $6.46 million ($3.06 million from the allocation of proceeds to the Warrants and an additional $3.4 million from the measurement of the intrinsic value of the conversion option). The Note discount was initially recognized as a reduction to the carrying amount of the Notes and an addition to paid-in capital, and was to be subsequently amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the Note period.

 

In April 2020, the Holders elected to convert the Notes at a conversion price of $1.50 per share and also exercise the Warrants at an exercise price of $1.80 per share, and paid a cash consideration of $36,000,000 for the exercise of the Warrants by April 15, 2020. As a result, an aggregate of 40,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock were issued onon May 18, 2020. The Company received proceeds aggregating $66,000,000 from the transaction, and upon settlement of the Note and the 2020 Warrants, the Company immediately expensed the Note discount of $6.46 million For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized amortization of beneficial conversion feature   relating to issuance of convertible notes of $3.4 million and amortization of relative fair value of warrants relating to issuance of conversion notes of $3.06 million.

 

Because the Company did not receive the proceeds until April 2020, the Holders did not have the conversion rights of either convertible notes or warrants until payment were made. Accordingly the Company did not record accounting book on the transaction.

10.11.INCOME TAXES

 

Effective January 1, 2008, the New Taxation Law of PRC stipulates that domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises (the “FIEs”) 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.


10.INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

 

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 three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020, 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 March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had deferred tax assets of $3,635,446$5,908,788 and $3,574,333, respectively. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets as of March 31,June 30, 2020.

 

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 three months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had current income tax expenses of $48,380$847,409 generated by a profitable VIEHuamucheng and $nil, respectively, and deferred income tax expenses of $nil and $nil, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had current income tax expenses of $799,029 generated by Huamucheng and $nil, respectively, and deferred income tax expenses of $nil and $nil, 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 RMB 100,000. 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 March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months.

13.14.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

1Lease Commitments

 

The Company’s VIEs lease their offices which are classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 842. Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) on the commencement date: (i) lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

 

The Company leases offices space with terms ranging from one to two years. 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. Lease expense for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

 

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a 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 discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.

 

As of March 31,June 30, 2020, the Company had two lease contracts with lease expiration in June 2021 and September 2020, respectively. The lease contract does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The table below presents the operating lease related assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet.

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

 

Overview

 

As of March 31,June 30, 2020, the Company had two business lines, used luxury car leasing business and commodities trading business.

 

Used luxury car leasing business

 

Currently the Company has eleven used luxurious cars with net book value of approximately US$2.432.23 million. In addition, the Company also leased used luxurious cars from peer companies and individuals to provide more varieties of luxurious cars to our customers. To determine the model of vehicles to be purchased, we collect data related to customers’ demands and preferences through sales and online promotions. Our professional procurement personnel will then compare models of vehicles offered by different sellers. The decision to purchase a specific vehicle is based on a number of considerations including time of delivery, vehicle condition, vehicle safety features, mileage, repair and maintenance history, accident history, market scarcity, etc. Due to the effects of COVID-19, we had closed our luxury car rental facilities from the end of January 2020 and have resumed our operations since April 2020. For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned income from operating lease of $14,051 and $399,999,$940,894, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned income from operating lease of $nil and $540,895, respectively.

 

We rent our luxurious cars to our customers from our offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang and Chengdu. We market our cars to targeted potential customers via phone calls or messages. The rental price varies based on the rental term which ranges from one day to one month. The longer the rental term, the cheaper the price. The daily rental price is the highest, while the average weekly rental price and average monthly rental price are 10% to 20% cheaper and 20% to 30% cheaper, respectively, than that of the daily rental price.

 

We conduct a comprehensive credit check against customers who place orders. We work with credit rating platforms such as JD Wanxiang and TYi Online to evaluate the customer’s credit. We may reject an order for any reason including unacceptable credit ratings. Once an order is accepted, we will require a deposit ranging from US$7,500 to US$15,000 based on the vehicle being ordered and the customer’s credit score. The deposit covers vehicle deposit and traffic violation deposit. Customer can confirm the time and place for vehicle delivery and rental term via SMS messages, phone calls or face-to-face communication with our sales personnel. After that, our sales personnel will deliver the vehicle to the customers at their designated location. The customer, before signing the car rental agreement, will inspect the vehicle in person and pay the lease fee along with the deposit via credit card, Wechat Pay or Alipay. The customer is responsible for the gas, toll fee, fees incurred to return the car, and any other expenses related to the use of the vehicle during the rental term.

 

We install five GPS trackers on each vehicle to track the location of the vehicles. Once the rental period is over, the vehicle needs to be returned to our designated location. In the event the vehicle is returned with no damage other than normal wear and tear, we will process the refund of the vehicle deposit on the next business day. The traffic deposit will be refunded after we confirm that there are no traffic violation records associated with the vehicle from the local police (approximately a month after the return).

 

Competition

 

We compete with car rental companies, many of which are more established and have more resources than us. Currently we compete primarily with Benson, V-FLY Travel and Wagons.


Commodities trading business

 

In order to diversify the Company’s business and generate additional revenue, on November 22, 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Hao Limo Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“Hao Limo”), entered into a series of contractual agreements (the “Huamucheng VIE Agreements”) with Shenzhen Huamucheng Trading Co., Ltd. (“Huamucheng”) and certain shareholders of Huamucheng (“Huamucheng Shareholders”), who collectively hold 100% of Huamucheng. The Huamucheng VIE Agreements are designed to provide Hao Limo with the power, rights and obligations equivalent, in all material respects, to those it would possess as the sole equity holder of Huamucheng, including absolute control rights and the rights to the management, operations, assets, property and revenue of Huamucheng. The purpose of the VIE Agreements is solely to give Hao Limo the exclusive control over Huamucheng’s management. Through Huamucheng VIE structure, the Company is able to consolidate operations of Huamucheng effective November 22, 2019 and now operates a separate commodity trading business.

 

The commodity trading business primarily involves purchasing non-ferrous metal product, such as aluminium ingots, copper, silver, and gold, from upstream metal and mineral suppliers and then selling to downstream 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 bulk non-ferrous commodity products, and from providing related supply chain management services in the PRC.

 

For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenue of $1,053,632$2,617,301 from commodities trading business and $415,377$2,561,187 from supply chain management services (all from loan recommendation services), respectively, from Huamucheng’s operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenue of $1,563,669 from commodities trading business and $2,145,810 from supply chain management services (all from loan recommendation services), respectively, from Huamucheng’s operations.

For the six and three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company generated net income of $2.54 million and $2.40 million from commodities trading business.

In addition, the Company commenced supply chain financing services and for the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company provided such services to one customer. On March 25, 2020, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Shenzhen Xinsuniao to provide a credit line of RMB 568 million or approximately $80 million to Shenzhen Xinsuniao, to which the Company also provided loan recommendations services during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company selected Shenzhen Xinsuniao as its customer because Shenzhen Xinsuniao and its wholly-owned subsidiary Qianhai Baiyu were reputable for their extensive experience in supply chain services for commodities trading.

 

Through Huamucheng’s business, the Company sources bulk commodity products from non-ferrous metal and mines or its designated distributors and then sells to manufactures who need these metals in large quantity. 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, and Shanghai Copper. Potential customers include large infrastructure companies such as China National Electricity, Datang Power, China Aluminum Foshan International Trade, Tooke Investment (China), CSSC International Trade Co., Ltd., Shenye Group, and Keliyuan.

  

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

 

Huamucheng 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.

 

Recent developments

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 25, 2020, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Shenzhen Xinsuniao to provide a credit line of RMB 568 million or approximately $80 million to Shenzhen Xinsuniao, to which the Company also provided loan recommendations services during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

From July 1, 2020 to the date of this report, the Company collected RMB 507.63 million, or $71.80 million from Shenzhen Xinsuniao.

Termination of VIE Agreement

On April 2, 2020, HC High Summit Holding Limited (“HC High BVI”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, established Tongdow Block Chain Information Technology Company Limited (“Tongdow Block Chain”), a holding company incorporated in accordance with the laws and regulations of Hong Kong. Tongdow Block Chain is wholly owned by HC High BVI. On April 2, 2020, Tongdow Block Chain established Shanghai Jianchi Supply Chain Company Limited (“Shanghai Jianchi”) as its wholly owned subsidiary. Shanghai Jianchi is a holding company incorporated in accordance with the laws and regulations of People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).


On June 25, 2020, Hao Limo Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd. (“Hao Limo”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in PRC, and Shenzhen Huamucheng Trading Co., Ltd. (“Huamucheng”), a former VIE of the Company, entered into certain VIE Termination Agreement (the “VIE Termination Agreement”) to terminate the Huamucheng VIE Agreements. As such, Hao Limo will no longer have the control rights and rights to the assets, property and revenue of Huamucheng. On the same date, Shanghai Jianchi, Huamucheng and the shareholders of Huamucheng (the “Huamucheng Shareholders”) entered into certain Share Acquisition Agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) pursuant to which Shanghai Jianchi acquired 100% equity interest of Huamucheng from the Huamucheng Shareholders for nominal consideration.

As a result of the above reorganization, Huamucheng transitioned from being a variable interest entity (“VIE”) controlled by Company into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company remained in control of Huamucheng both before and after the reorganization and its operating results are consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company has commenced its supply chain financing services and the Company provided such services to one customer for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operation

 

The car rental and car service industry in China is competitive and fragmented. The commodities trading industry is also experiencing decreasing demand as a result of China’s overall economic slowdown. We expect competition in both China’s car leasing industry and commodities trading business to persist and intensify.

 

We have a limited operating history having just launched the car leasing business in May 2018 and 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,

 

 our ability to integrate commodities trading business with car leasing business;

 

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

 

 preservation of our competitive position in both of the luxurious car leasing and car service industry and 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.

 

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

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

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 March 31, 2020 (please refer to Item 9A. Controls and Procedures enclosed in Form 10-K filed on May 29, 2020).

 

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 also is based in part upon 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 our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

 

As of the date of this Report and except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 29, 2020.

 

If our supply chain financing service customers experience financial difficulties, we may not be able to collect our loan receivables, which would materially and adversely affect our profitability and cash flows from operations.

On March 25, 2020, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Shenzhen Xinsuniao to provide a credit line of RMB 568 million or approximately $80 million to Shenzhen Xinsuniao. As of the date of this report, the Company has collected RMB 507.63 million, or US$ 71.80 million from Shenzhen Xinsuniao.

Over the course of a contract term, a customer's financial condition may decline and limit its ability to pay its obligations. This could cause our cash collections to decrease and bad debt expense to increase. While we may resort to alternative methods to pursue claims or collect receivables, these methods are expensive and time consuming and successful collection is not guaranteed. Failure to collect our receivables or prevail on claims would have an adverse effect on our profitability and cash flows.
