CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates”, “plans” and words of similar import. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, potential target businesses, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore that you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements of historical fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include changes in local, regional, national or global political, economic, business, competitive, market (supply and demand) and regulatory conditions.

A description of these and other risks and uncertainties that could affect our business appears in the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2022 (the “Annual Report”). The risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” are not exhaustive.

Given these uncertainties, readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.

The Warrants issued to the Lenders granted each of the Lenders the right to purchase up to 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. However, if the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180th calendar date after the issuance date of the Warrants, then the exercise price shall be 125% of the offering price of a share in the Uplist Offering. If the adjusted exercise price as a result of the Uplist Offering is less than $1.25 per share, then the number of shares for which the Warrants are exercisable shall be increased such that the total exercise price, after taking into account the decrease in the per share exercise price, shall be equal to the total exercise price prior to such adjustment.

The Lenders have the right to exercise the Warrants on a cashless basis if the highest traded price of a share of common stock of the Company during the 150 trading days prior to exercise of the Warrants exceeds the exercise price, unless there is an effective registration statement of the Company which covers the resale of the Lenders.

If the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares at an effective price per share lower than the exercise price of the Warrants, the exercise price of the Warrants shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to customary exceptions.

The Lenders may not convert the Notes or exercise the Warrants if such conversion or exercise will result in each of the Lenders, together with any affiliates, beneficially owning in excess of 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately after giving effect to such exercise unless the Lenders notify the Company at least 61 days prior to such exercise.

The PRC promulgated a Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, effective June 1, 2007, which contains provisions for the implementation of measures for the bankruptcy of PRC banks. The bank deposits with financial institutions in the PRC are insured by the government authority for up to RMB500,000.

 

Interest Rate Risk – The Company is exposed to the risk arising from changing interest rates, which may affect the ability of repayment of existing debts and viability of securing future debt instruments within the PRC.

 

Currency Risk - A majority of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Convertible Note and Warrant

On November 3, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Talos Victory Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Lender”), dated as of October 27, 2021, pursuant to which the Company issued the Lender a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $250,000 (the “Note”) and a three-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The terms and provisions of the Note and Warrant are described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 5, 2021. The Company received $225,000 gross proceeds from the issuance of the Note as a result of the original discount rate on the Note. Unless the Note is converted, the principal amount of the Note, and accrued interest at the rate of 8% per annum, are payable on the one-year anniversary of the issuance of the Note (the “Maturity Date”). The Lender has the right to convert any or all of the principal and accrued interest on the Note into shares of common stock of the Company on the earlier of (i) 180 calendar days after October 27, 2021 or (ii) the closing of a listing for trading of the common stock of the Company on a national securities exchange offering resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $15,000,000 or more (an “Uplist Offering”). If the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180th calendar date after October 27, 2021, the conversion price shall be 70% of the per share offering price in the Uplist Offering; otherwise, the conversion price is $0.75 per share.

The Warrant issued to the Lender granted the Lender the right to purchase up to 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. However, if the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180th calendar date after October 27, 2021, then the exercise price shall be 125% of the offering price of a share in the Uplist Offering. If the adjusted exercise price as a result of the Uplist Offering is less than $1.25 per share, then the number of shares that the Warrant is issuable shall be increased such that the exercise price, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the exercise price prior to such adjustment. The Lender has the right to exercise the Warrant on a cashless basis if the highest traded price of a share of common stock of the Company during the 150 trading days prior to exercise of the Warrant exceeds $1.75, unless there is an effective registration statement of the Company which covers the resale. If the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares at an effective price per share lower than the exercise price of the Warrant, the exercise price of the Warrant shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to customary exceptions.

Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement dated October 27, 2021 executed between the Company and the Lender, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the shares of common stock underlying the Note and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant no later than December 26, 2021.

Effects of COVID-19

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions have affected our businesses, as well as those of our customers and suppliers. To serve our customers while also providing for the safety of our employees and service providers, we have modified numerous aspects of our logistics, transportation, supply chain, purchasing, and after-sale processes. Beginning in Q1 2020, we made numerous process updates across our operations worldwide, and adapted our fulfillment network, to implement employee and customer safety measures, such as enhanced cleaning and physical distancing, personal protective gear, disinfectant spraying, and temperature checks. We will continue to prioritize employee and customer safety and comply with evolving state and local standards as well as to implement standards or processes that we determine to be in the best interests of our employees, customers, and communities.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our subsidiary Sichuan Wetouch was temporarily shut down from early February 2020 to early March 2020 in accordance with the requirement of the local governments.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, revenue from the domestic market increased by $10.7 million or 77.0% as a combined result of: (i) an increase of 56.2% in sales volume and (ii) an increase of 10.5% in the average RMB selling price of our products, compared with those of the same period of last year.

As for the RMB selling price, the increase of 10.5% was mainly due to the increased sales of new models of higher-end products such as touch screens used in gaming machines with higher selling price in the domestic market during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021.

The weakening in macroeconomic conditions since the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in January 2020 continued to exacerbate touch screen business environment.

The Company has taken proactive efforts to market new models such as POS touchscreens and penetrate into new customers and into new regions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Historically, our primary uses of cash have been to finance working capital needs. We expect that we will be able to meet our needs to fund operations, capital expenditures and other commitments in the next 12 months primarily with our cash and cash equivalents, operating cash flows and bank borrowings.

 

We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changes in business conditions or other future developments. If these sources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity or equity-linked securities could result in additional dilution to stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that would restrict operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below. Because of our limited operations, we have a limited number of employees which prohibits a segregation of duties. In addition, we lack a formal audit committee with a financial expert. As we grow and expand our operations we will engage additional employees and experts as needed. However, there can be no assurance that our operations will expand.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
