Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of real estate assets, allocation of development costs and capitalized interest to sold lots, fair value of the investments, the valuation allowance of deferred taxes, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In our property development business, land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot compared to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot compared to the total size of all lots in the project.
Transactions between Entities under Common Control

| ● | The acquisition of LVD, APB and HFL was under common control and was consolidated in accordance with ASC 850-50. The consolidated financial statements were retrospectively adjusted for the acquisition of LVD, APB and HFL, and the operating results of LVD, APB and HFL as of January 1, 2020 for comparative purposes. |
AEI’s stock price was $ on March 12, 2021, the commitment date. The Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”) intrinsic value was $50,770,192 for the four convertible promissory notes and was recorded as debt discount of convertible notes after these transactions. The debt discount attributable to the BCF is amortized over period from issuance to the date that the debt becomes convertible using the effective interest method. If the debt is converted, the discount is amortized to finance cost in full immediately. On May 13, 2021 and June 14, 2021 all Alset CPNs of $63,920,128 and accrued interest of $306,438 were converted into shares of Series B preferred stock and shares of common stock of the Company.

Equity Method AccountingInvestment
The Company accounts for equity investment in entities with significant influence under equity-method accounting. Under this method, the Group’s pro rata share of income (loss) from investment is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Dividends received reduce the carrying amount of the investment. When the Company’s share of loss in an equity-method investee equals or exceeds its carrying value of the investment in that entity, the equity method investment can be reduced below zero based on losses, if the Company either is liable for the obligations of the investee or provides for losses in excess of the investment when imminent return to profitable operations by the investee appears to be assured. Otherwise, the Company does not recognize its share of equity method losses exceeding its carrying amount of the investment, but discloses the losses in the footnotes. Equity-method investment is reviewed for impairment by assessing if the decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other-than-temporary. In making this determination, factors are evaluated in determining whether a loss in value should be recognized. These include consideration of the intent and ability of the Group to hold investment and the ability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity, justifying the carrying amount of the investment. Impairment losses are recognized in other expense when a decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary.

Revenue Recognition and Cost of Sales
ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (" (“ASC 606"606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity'sentity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which the determination of revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires the Company to apply the following steps:
(1) identify the contract with the 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, performance obligations are satisfied.
The following represents the Company’s revenue recognition policies by Segments:
Real Estate
Property Sales
The Company'sCompany’s main business is land development. The Company purchases land and develops it for building into residential communities. The developed lots are sold to builders (customers) for the construction of new homes. The builders enter ainto sales contractcontracts with the Company before they take the lots. The prices and timeline are determined and agreed upon in the contract.contracts. The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions and requirements in contracts are met before purchasing the lots. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process for the revenue recognition of the Ballenger and Black Oak projects,project, which represented approximately 99%42% and 94%70%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue in the ninesix months ended on SeptemberJune 30, 20202022 and 2019,2021, is as follows:
| ● | Identify the contract with a customer. |
The Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices, timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.
| ● | Identify the performance obligations in the contract. |
Performance obligations of the Company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.
| ● | Determine the transaction price. |
The transaction price per lot is fixed and specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved by both parties.
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract. |
Each lot or a group of lots is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated to.
| ● | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations or continuing involvement once title is transferred.
Rental Revenue
The Company leases real estate properties to its tenants under leases that are predominately classified as operating leases, in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Real estate rental revenue is comprised of minimum base rent and revenue from the collection of lease termination fees.
Rent from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease agreement on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Generally, at the end of the lease term, the Company provides the tenant with a one year renewal option, including mostly the same terms and conditions provided under the initial lease term, subject to rent increases.
The Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. These amounts are presented within deferred revenues and other payables on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Rental revenue is subject to an evaluation for collectability on several factors, including payment history, the financial strength of the tenant and any guarantors, historical operations and operating trends of the property, and current economic conditions. If our evaluation of these factors indicates that it is not probable that we will recover substantially all of the receivable, rental revenue is limited to the lesser of the rental revenue that would be recognized on a straight-line basis (as applicable) or the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. Differences between rental revenue recognized and amounts contractually due under the lease agreements are credited or charged to straight-line rent receivable or straight-line rent liability, as applicable. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not recognize any deferred revenue and collected all rents due.
Sale of the Front Foot Benefit Assessments
We have established a front foot benefit (“FFB”) assessment on all of the NVR lots. This is a 30-year annual assessment allowed in Frederick County which requires homeowners to reimburse the developer for the costs of installing public water and sewer to the lots. These assessments become effective as homes are settled, at which time we can sell the collection rights to investors who will pay an upfront lump sum, enabling us to more quickly realize the revenue. The selling prices range from $3,000$3,000 to $4,500$4,500 per home depending the type of the home. Our total revenue from the front foot benefit assessment is approximately $1 million. To recognize revenue of the FFB assessment, both our and NVR’s performance obligation have to be satisfied. Our performance obligation is completed once we complete the construction of water and sewer facility and close the lot sales with NVR, which inspects these water and sewer facility prior to close lot sales to ensure all specifications are met. NVR’s performance obligation is to sell homes they build to homeowners. Our FFB revenue is recognized on quarterly basis after NVR closes sales of homes to homeowners.

Capitalized financing costs are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project. If the allocation of capitalized financing costs based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on an area method, which uses the size of the lots compared to the total project area and allocates costs based on their size.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the capitalized financing costs were $3,247,739.
Beneficial Conversion Features
The Company evaluates the conversion feature for whether it was beneficial as described in ASC 470-30. The intrinsic value of a beneficial conversion feature inherent to a convertible note payable, which is not bifurcated and accounted for separately from the convertible note payable and may not be settled in cash upon conversion, is treated as a discount to the convertible note payable. This discount is amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the date the note is due using the effective interest method. If the note payable is retired prior to the end of its contractual term, the unamortized discount is expensed in the period of retirement to interest expense. In general, the beneficial conversion feature is measured by comparing the effective conversion price, after considering the relative fair value of detachable instruments included in the financing transaction, if any, to the fair value of the shares of common stock at the commitment date to be received upon conversion.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting pronouncement adopted
In February 2016,October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 842) (“805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2016-02”) which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases. ASU 2016-022021-08 requires lesseesthe company acquiring contract assets and contract liabilities obtained in a business combination to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheets for allmeasure them in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. At the leases with terms greater than twelve months. Based on certain criteria, leases will be classifiedacquisition date, the company acquiring the business should record related revenue, as either financing or operating, with classification affectingif it had originated the pattern of expense recognitioncontract. Before the update such amounts were recognized by the acquiring company at fair value. The amendments in the income statement. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASU 2016-02 isupdate are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 for emerging growth companies, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” that allows entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at the effective date (e.g. January 1, 2019), as opposed to the earliest period presented under the modified retrospective transition approach (January 1, 2017) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients primarily focused on leases that commenced before the effective date of Topic 842,2022, including continuing to account for leases that commence before the effective date in accordance with previous guidance, unless the lease is modified. The new leasing standard presents dramatic changes to the balance sheets of lessees. Lessor accounting is updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. The standard had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, but did not have an impact on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. As a lessor of one home, this standard does not have material impact on the Company. The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2020 were $546,519 and $541,887, respectively. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain the option will be exercised. In general, we are not reasonably certain to exercise such options. We recognize lease expense for minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities for lease agreements with terms less than 12 months.

Financial Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Real Estate Projects
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. The COVID-19 pandemic’s far-reaching impact on the global economy could negatively affect various aspects of our business, including demand for real estate. From March 2020 through September 2020,the second quarter of 2022, we continued to sell lots at our Ballenger Run project (in Maryland) to NVR for the construction of town homes to NVR. To date, salessingle-family homes. At this time, all of such town homes by NVR are up in 2020 compared to the first nine months of 2019. Such town homes are oftenlots at Ballenger Run have been sold to first-time home buyers, whoNVR, however we continue to complete our development requirements under our agreements with NVR. We do not anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will have to worry about selling their existing homes. We believe low interest rates have encouraged home sales. Many buyers opted to see home modelsa material impact on the timing of the completion of our remaining tasks at the project virtually. This technology allowed them to ask questions to sales staff and see the town homes.
We have received strong indications that buyers and renters across the country are expressing interest in moving from more densely populated urban areas to the suburbs. We believe thatthis trend, should it continue, will encourage interest in our Ballenger RunLakes at Black Oak project, is well suited and positioned to accommodate those buyers. Our latest phase for sale at Ballenger Run, involving single-family homes, has seen a high number of interested potential buyers signing up for additional information and updates on home availability.
The COVID-19 pandemic could impact the ability of our staff and contractors to continue to work, and our ability to conduct our operations in a prompt and efficient manner. To date,In 2020, we experienced a slowdown in the construction of a clubhouse at the Ballenger Run project, which had beenwas completed behind the original schedule. ThisWe believe this delay was caused in part by policies requiring lower numbers of contractors working indoors.
The COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact the timeliness of local government in granting real estate permits and licenses required for various development projects.approvals. Accordingly, the COVID-19 pandemic may cause the completion of important stages in our real estate projects to be delayed.
Other Business Activities
The COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact our potential to expand our business activities in ways that are difficult to assess or predict. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted, and may continue to impact, the global supply of certain goods and services in ways that may impact the sale of products to consumers that we, or companies we may invest in or partner with, will attempt to make. The COVID-19 pandemic may prevent us from pursuing otherwise attractive opportunities.
COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our operations in South Korea; since the start of the pandemic, the South Korean government has at various times placed certain restrictions on business meetings to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Such restrictions have impacted our ability to recruit potential affiliate sales personnel, and to introduce products to a larger audience.

Impact on Staff
Most of our U.S. staff works out of our Bethesda, Maryland office. At our office in Texas, we received a 50% rent abatement for the month of May 2020.
Our U.S. staff has shifted to mostly working from home since March 2020, but this has had a minimal impact on our operations to date. Our staff in Singapore and Hong Kong has been able to work from home when needed with minimal impact on our operations, however our staff’s ability to travel between our Hong Kong and Singapore offices has been significantly limited, and our staff’s travel between the U.S. and non-U.S. offices has been suspended since March 2020.was significantly limited until earlier this year. The COVID-19 pandemic has also impacted the frequency with which our management would otherwise travel to the Black Oaks project;Oak project in 2020 and 2021; however, we have a contractor in Texas providing supervision of the project. Management continues to regularly supervise the Ballenger Run project. Limitations on the mobility of our management and staff may slow down our ability to enter into new transactions and expand existing projects.
We have not reduced our staff in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, we did not have to expend significant resources related to employee health and safety matters related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We have a small staff, however, and the inability of any significant number of our staff to work due to illness or the illness of a family member could adversely impact our operations.
Recent Business Developments in our Home Rental Business
Recently, the Company expanded its real estate portfolio to single family rental houses. During 2021 and early 2022, the Company, through its subsidiaries, acquired 112 homes in Montgomery and Harris Counties, Texas.
In forty-four of the 112 rental homes that were acquired, as part of our commitment to advancing smart and healthy sustainable living, we have installed Tesla PV solar panels and Powerwalls. We are reviewing plans to add solar panels and related technologies at the balance of the single-family rental homes, where feasible. In addition, we have added technologies at many of the single-family rental homes such as (i) smart solar, thermostat, and energy usage controls; (ii) smart lighting controls; (iii) smart locks and security; and (iv) smart home automation devices. We believe these and other technologies will be attractive to renters and we continue to build and pursue strategic, technological partnerships that will assist us as we expand our real estate business to include building homes for rent and building homes for sale in the future.
The Company has entered into a property management agreement with the property managers under which the property managers generally oversee and direct the leasing, management and advertising of the properties in our portfolio, including collecting rents and acting as liaison with the tenants. The Company pays its property managers a monthly property management fee per property unit and a leasing fee.
Matters that May or Are Currently Affecting Our Business
In addition to the matters described above, the primary challenges and trends that could affect or are affecting our financial results include:
● Our ability to improve our revenue through cross-selling and revenue-sharing arrangements among our diverse group of companies;
● Our ability to identify complementary businesses for acquisition, obtain additional financing for these acquisitions, if and when needed, and profitably integrate them into our existing operation;
● Our ability to attract competent, skilled technical and sales personnel for each of our businesses at acceptable compensation levels to manage our overhead; and
● Our ability to control our operating expenses as we expand each of our businesses and product and service offerings.

Impact of Inflation
We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202022 or the year ended December 31, 2019.2021. Our current and anticipated costs in our real estate and other business lines have increased due to recent inflation, including projected costs of materials and salaries, and such increases may be significant as we engage in additional operations.

Impact of Foreign Exchange Rates
The effect of foreign exchange rate changes on the intercompany loans (under ASC 830), which mostly consist of loans from our corporate entities in Singapore to the ones in the United States and which were approximately $36.2$43 million and $41.1$43 million on SeptemberJune 30, 20202022 and December 31, 2019,2021, respectively, are the reason for the significant fluctuation of foreign currency transaction Gain or Loss on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income.Loss. Because the intercompany loan balances between our companies in Singapore and United States will remain at approximately $40$43 million over the next year, we expect this fluctuation of foreign exchange rates to still significantly impact the results of operations in 2020,2022, especially given that the foreign exchange rate may and is expected to be volatile. If the amount of intercompany loan is lowered in the future, the effect will also be reduced. However, at this moment, we do not expect to repay the intercompany loans in the short term.
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of these exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of this exemption.
Seasonality
The real estate business is subject to seasonal shifts in costs as certain work is more likely to be performed at certain times of the year. This may impact the expenses of Alset EHome Inc. from time to time. In addition, should we commence building homes, we are likely to experience periodic spikes in sales as we commence the sales process at a particular location.
