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.

WETOUCH TECHNOLOGY INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Business

 

Wetouch Technology Inc. (“Wetouch”, or the “Company”), formerly known as Gulf West Investment Properties, Inc., was originally incorporated in August 1992, under the laws of the state of Nevada.

 

On October 9, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Wetouch Holding Group Limited (“BVI Wetouch”) and all the shareholders of BVI Wetouch (each, a “BVI Shareholder” and collectively the “BVI Shareholders”), to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of BVI Wetouch in exchange for the issuance to the BVI Shareholders an aggregate of 28,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Reverse Merger”). In the Reverse Merger, each ordinary share of BVI Wetouch was exchanged for 2,800 shares of common stock of Wetouch. Immediately after the closing of the Reverse Merger on October 9, 2020, we had a total of 31,396,394 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result of the Reverse Merger, BVI Wetouch is now our wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

Wetouch Holding Group Limited (“BVI Wetouch”), is a holding company whose only asset, held through a subsidiary, is 100% of the registered capital of Sichuan Wetouch Technology Co. Ltd. (“Sichuan Wetouch”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“China” or “PRC”). Sichuan Wetouch is primarily engaged in the business of research development, manufacture, and distribution of touchscreen displays to customers both in PRC and overseas. The touchscreen products, which are manufactured by the Company, are primarily for use in computer components.

 

The Reverse Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein BVI Wetouch is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of BVI Wetouch have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. The number of shares, par value amount, and additional paid-in capital in the prior years are retrospectively adjusted according.

 

Corporate History of BVI Wetouch

 

Wetouch Holding Group Limited (“BVI Wetouch”) was incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on August 14, 2020. It became the holding company of Hong Kong Wetouch Electronics Technology Limited (“Hong Kong Wetouch”) on September 11, 2020.

 

Hong Kong Wetouch Technology Limited (“HK Wetouch”), was incorporated as a holding company under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“SAR”) on December 3, 2020. On March 2, 2021, HK Wetouch acquired all shares of Hong Kong Vtouch. Due to the fact that Hong Kong Wetouch and HK Wetouch are both under the same sole stockholder, the acquisition is accounted for under common control.

 

In June, 2021, Hong Kong Wetouch completed its dissolution process pursuant to the minutes of its special shareholder meeting.

 

Sichuan Wetouch Technology Co. Ltd. (“Sichuan Wetouch”) was formed on May 6, 2011 in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and became Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise in PRC on February 23, 2017. On July 19, 2016, Sichuan Wetouch was 100%100% held by HK Wetouch.

 

On December 30, 2020, Sichuan Vtouch Technology Co., Ltd. (“Sichuan Vtouch”) was incorporated in Chengdu, Sichuan, under the laws of the People’s Republic of China.

 

In March 2021, pursuant to local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national overall plan, Sichuan Wetouch was under the government directed relocation order, and started its dissolution process which is estimated to be completed by the end of 2022. Sichuan Vtouch took over the operating business of Sichuan Wetouch.

 

As a result of the above restructuring, HK Wetouch became the sole shareholder of Sichuan Vtouch.

Note 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Wetouch.

In the opinion of the management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-monthnine-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021 have been made. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessary be indicative of annual results.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the Company’s estimates, including those related to the bad debt allowance, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets and property and equipment, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. The Company bases its estimates on assumptions, both historical and forward looking, that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Under PRC CIT Law, domestic enterprises and Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIEs”) are usually subject to a unified 25% enterprise income tax rate while preferential tax rates, tax holidays and even tax exemption may be granted on a case-by-case basis by local government as preferential tax treatment to High and New Technology Enterprises (“HNTEs”). Under this preferential tax treatment, HNTEs are entitled to an income tax rate of 15%, subject to a requirement that they re-apply for their HNTE status every three years.

In October, November, and December 2021, the Company, issued seven (7) convertible promissory notes of US$2,250,000 aggregate principal amount, due in one year (the ‘Notes’) with issuance price discounted 90.0%. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum, payable in one year and will mature on October 27, November 5, November 16, November 29 and December 2 of 2022. Net proceeds after debt issuance costs and debt discount were approximately US$1,793,000. Debt issuance costs in the amount of US$162,000 are recorded as deferred charges and included in the other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The debt discount and debt issuance costs are amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method over the terms of the Notes.

 

The details of convertible notes are as follows:

 

Unless the Notes are converted, the principal amounts of the Notes, and accrued interest at the rate of 8% per annum, are payable on the one-year anniversary of the issuance of the Notes (the “Maturity Date”). If the Company fails to satisfy its loan obligation by the Maturity Date, the default interest rate will be 16%.

 

The Lenders have the right to convert any or all of the principal and accrued interest on the Notes into shares of common stock of the Company on the earlier of (i) 180 calendar days after the issuance date of the Notes 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 the issuance date of the Notes, 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.

 

Subject to customary exceptions, if the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares of common stock at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price of the Notes, the conversion rate of the Notes shall be reduced to such lower price.

 

Until the Notes are either paid or converted in their entirety, the Company agreed with the Lenders not to sell any securities convertible into shares of common stock of the Company (i) at a conversion price that is based on the trading price of the stock or (ii) with a conversion price that is subject to being reset at a future date or upon an event directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the common stock. The Company also agreed to not issue securities at a future determined price.

The Lenders have the right to require the Company to repay the Notes if the Company receives cash proceeds, including proceeds from customers and the issuance of equity (including in the Uplist Offering). If the Company prepays the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay a 10%10% prepayment penalty.

 

On April 27, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the Note (“Amendment to Promissory Note”) issued to a Lender and, on May 3, 2022, an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement by and between the Company and the Lender dated as of October 27, 2021 (“Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement”), extending the number of days the Company shall have in order to cause the registration statement covering the resale of the Common Stock to become effective. For each 30-day extension, the Company agreed to repay the Lender $25,000 of the principal amount of the Note, without prepayment penalty. The Company has repaid $25,000to the Lender on May 3, 2022.

 

On August 9 and September 20, 2022, the Company repaid $50,000 to six (6) Lenders and $65,000 to five (5) Lenders, respectively.

b) Warrants

 

Accounting for Warrants

 

In connection with the issuance of a convertible promissory notes (see Note 11 (a) in October, November and December, 2021, the Company also issued seven (7) three-year warrantwarrants (the “ Warrant”Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant“ Warrant Shares”).

 

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.

 

On April 14 and April 27, 2022, two lendersLenders exercised cashless for 115,540 and 111,972 warrant shares, respectively.

 

From August 24 to September 27, 2022, seven Lenders exercised cashless for 1,306,506 warrant shares.

The fair values of these warrants as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 were calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

NOTE 12- RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

No other financial asset carries a significant exposure to credit risk. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of each customer’s financial condition. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts and such allowances in the aggregate have not exceeded management’s estimates.

 

The Company has its cash in bank deposits primarily at state owned banks located in the PRC. Historically, deposits in PRC banks have been secured due to the state policy of protecting depositors’ interests. 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.

The distributions from our PRC subsidiary are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 21%, less any applicable foreign tax credits. Due to our policy of indefinitely reinvesting our earnings in our PRC business, we have not provided for deferred income tax liabilities related to PRC withholding income tax on undistributed earnings of our PRC subsidiaries.

 

Net Income

 

As a result of the above factors, we had a net income of $5.5$8.8 million in the six-monthnine-month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 compared to a net income of $13.4$16.7 million in the same period of 2021.

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.

13

 

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.

 

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we had current assets of $62.2$61.4 million, consisting of $45.1$45.5 million in cash, $15.3$14.3 million in accounts receivable, $0.5$0.4 million in inventories, and $1.2 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

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.

 

15

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 JuneSeptember 30, 2022 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.
