Public Offering Prospectus. A prospectus to be used for the public offering of 5,000,000 shares of common stock of the Registrant (the “Public Offering Prospectus”) through the underwriter named on the cover page of the Public Offering Prospectus.

Resale Prospectus. A prospectus to be used for the resale by the selling stockholders set forth therein of 987,000 shares of common stock of the Registrant (the “Resale Prospectus”).

they contain different outside and inside front covers and back covers;
they contain different Offering sections in the Prospectus Summary section beginning on page 2;
they contain different Use of Proceeds sections on page 21;

Up to 32,154,344 shares of common stock (the “PIPE Warrant Stocks”), consisting of (i) 16,077,172 shares of our common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”) that were issued pursuant to the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement, and (ii) 16,077,172 additional shares of common stock that we are required to register pursuant to a registration rights agreement between us and certain selling stockholders obligating us to register 200% of the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrant Stocks;

If at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the common stocks underlying the PIPE Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants to the respective holder, the holder may, in their respective sole discretion, elect to exercise the PIPE Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants through a cashless exercise, in which case the respective holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of common stocks determined according to the respective formula set forth in the PIPE Warrant and the Placement Agent Warrant, as applicable.

The selling stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from any sales of the shares of our common stock offered hereby. However, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the PIPE Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants, if such securities are exercised for cash. We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes. We will also incur expenses in connection with the registration of the shares of our common stock offered hereby

Our common stocks is traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ATXG.” On January 23, 2023, the reported sales price of our common stocks on The Nasdaq Capital Market was $1.63 per share.

Throughout this prospectus, unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “Addentax” refer to Addentax Group Corp., a holding company and references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Registrant,” the “Company” or “our company” are to Addentax and/or its consolidated subsidiaries.

Our shares of commons stock resold in this prospectus are shares of Addentax, our Nevada holding company, which has no material operations of its own and conducts substantially all of its operations through the operating companies established in the People’s Republic of China, or the PRC, primarily Shenzhen Qianhai Yingxi Industrial Chain Service Co., Ltd. (“YX”), our wholly owned subsidiary and its subsidiaries. We are not a Chinese operating company. We are a holding company and do not directly own any substantive business operations in the China. This is a resale of common stock of our Nevada holding company, instead of shares of our operating companies in China. Therefore, investors will not directly hold any equity interests in our Chinese operating companies. Our holding company structure involves unique risks to investors. Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our operating structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

Additionally, as we conduct substantially all of our operations through the operating companies established in the PRC, we are subject to certain legal and operational risks associated with our business operations in China. PRC laws and regulations governing our current business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain, and we face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we may be able to conduct in the PRC and the profitability of such business. Therefore, these risks associated being based in or having substantially all of our operations through the operating companies established in China could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Furthermore, these risks may result in a material change in our business operations or a complete hinderance of our ability to offer or continue to offer our securities to investors. Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. As at the date of this prospectus, the business of our subsidiaries until now are not subject to cybersecurity review with the Cyberspace Administration of China, or CAC, given that: (i) our products and services are offered not directly to individual users but through our institutional customers; (ii) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations; and (iii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. In addition, as at the date of this prospectus , we are not subject to merger control review by China’s anti-monopoly enforcement agency due to the level of our revenues which provided from us and audited by our auditor BF Borgers CPA PC, and the fact that we currently do not expect to propose or implement any acquisition of control of, or decisive influence over, any company with revenues within China of more than RMB400 million. Currently, these statements and regulatory actions have had no impact on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. As of the date of this prospectus, no effective laws or regulations in the PRC explicitly require us to seek approval from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) or any other PRC governmental authorities for our overseas listing, nor has our company or any of our subsidiaries received any inquiry, notice, warning or sanctions regarding our overseas listing from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities. However, since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange.

As a holding company, our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders and to service any debt we may incur may depend upon dividends paid by our PRC Subsidiaries. Current PRC regulations permit our PRC Subsidiaries to pay dividends to us through Yingxi Industrial Chain Investment Co., Ltd. (“Yingxi HK”), our intermediate holding subsidiary in Hong Kong, only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of our PRC Subsidiaries is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. As of the date hereof, we have had no transactions that involved the transfer of cash or assets throughout our corporate structure. The PRC Subsidiaries have not transferred cash or other assets to Addentax, including by way of dividends. Addentax does not currently plan or anticipate transferring cash or other assets from our operations in China to any non-Chinese entity. As of the date hereof, no transfers, dividends, or distributions have been made to our investors.

Pursuant to the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCAA”), the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (1) mainland China of the People’s Republic of China because of a position taken by one or more authorities in mainland China; and (2) Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region and dependency of the PRC, because of a position taken by one or more authorities in Hong Kong. In addition, the PCAOB’s report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to these determinations. Our registered public accounting firm, BF Borgers CPA PC, is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determinations. BF Borgers CPA PC is registered with the PCAOB and is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess BF Borgers CPA PC’s compliance with applicable professional standards. BF Borgers CPA PC has been inspected by the PCAOB on a firm commitment basis. Weregular basis, with the last inspection in November and December of 2021. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the PCAOB is not able to fully conduct inspections of our auditor’s work papers in China, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection which could result in limitation or restriction to our access to the U.S. capital markets and trading of our securities may be prohibited under the HFCAA. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“AHFCAA”), which, if enacted, would amend the HFCAA and require the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three. If the AHFCAA is enacted, and if we are subject to it, it would decrease the number of “non-inspection years” from three years to two years, and thus, would reduce the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted. On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it had signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”) with the CSRC and the Ministry of Finance (“MOF”) of the People’s Republic of China, which governs inspections and investigations of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol released by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC. According to the PCAOB, its December 2021 determinations under the HFCAA remain in effect. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB secures complete access to inspect, investigate audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. It is possible when the PCAOB may reassess its determinations in the future, and it could determine that it is still unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong. The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and related regulations currently expectpreviously did not affect the public offering priceCompany as the Company’s auditor is subject to be $5.00 per share.PCAOB’s inspections and investigations.

Risks Related to Our BusinessPRC Limitation on Overseas Listing and Share Issuances

 

OurNeither we nor our subsidiaries are currently required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, or Cybersecurity Administration Committee, or CAC, to list on U.S. exchanges or issue securities to foreign investors, however, if our subsidiaries or the holding company were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of the investors. It is uncertain when and whether the Company will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. Although the Company is currently not required to obtain permission from any of the PRC central or local government to obtain such permission and has not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, our operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry; if we inadvertently conclude that such approvals are not required when they are, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain approval in the future.

On December 24, 2021, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, issued Provisions of the State Council on the Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (Draft for Comments) (the “Administration Provisions”), and the Administrative Measures for the Filing of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Measures”), which were open for public comments by January 23, 2022. The Administration Provisions and Measures for overseas listings lay out specific requirements for filing documents and include unified regulation management, strengthening regulatory coordination, and cross-border regulatory cooperation. Domestic companies seeking to list abroad must carry out relevant security screening procedures if their businesses involve supervisions such as foreign investment security and cyber security reviews. Companies endangering national security are among those off-limits for overseas listings. As the Administration Provisions and Measures have not yet come into effect, we are currently unaffected by them. However, it is uncertain when the Administration Provision and the Measures will take effect or if they will take effect as currently drafted.

As of the date of this prospectus, other than the response we recently received from the CSRC confirming that our offering under this prospectus does not require the examination and approval of the CSRC in accordance with the existing PRC legislation and regulations (for more details about this response from the CSRC, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions or regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC, CAC or any other PRC governmental authorities, and we believe our PRC Subsidiaries have obtained all requisite permissions and approvals from PRC governmental authorities to operate our business as currently conducted under relevant PRC laws and regulations.

Currently, each of our PRC Subsidiaries holds and maintains a business license issued by the local market supervision and administration bureau, and has received all requisite permissions and approvals in order to conduct and operate our business. As of the date of this prospectus, none of our PRC Subsidiaries has been denied or punished by relevant governmental authorities due to its business qualifications. In addition, we (Addentax Group Corp.) and our non-PRC subsidiaries have also received all requisite permissions and approvals in order to conduct and operate our business.

Transfers of Cash to and from our Subsidiaries

We (Addentax Group Corp.) are a Nevada holding company with no material operations of our own. We conduct substantially all of our operations through the operating companies established in the PRC, primarily Shenzhen Qianhai Yingxi Industrial Chain Service Co., Ltd. (“YX”), our wholly owned subsidiary and its subsidiaries. We are not a Chinese operating company. We are a holding company and do not directly own any substantive business operations in China. As a result, although other means are available for us to obtain financing at the holding company level, Addentax’s ability to implementpay dividends to its stockholders and to service any debt it may incur may depend upon dividends paid by our business strategyPRC Subsidiaries. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends to Addentax. In addition, our PRC Subsidiaries are required to make appropriations to certain statutory reserve funds, which are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of a solvent liquidation of the companies.

5

Current PRC regulations permit our PRC Subsidiaries to pay dividends to us through Yingxi HK, our intermediate holding subsidiary in Hong Kong, only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of our PRC Subsidiaries is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Each of such entity in China is also required to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at the discretion of its board of directors. Although the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess of retained earnings of the respective companies, the reserve funds are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation.

The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. Therefore, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our profits, if any. Furthermore, if our PRC Subsidiaries incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments.

Cash dividends, if any, on our common stock will be paid in U.S. dollars. If we are considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes, any dividends we pay to our overseas stockholders may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result may be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of up to 10.0%.

In order for us to pay dividends to our stockholders, we will rely on the distribution of dividends, through the WFOE, to Yingxi HK from our PRC Subsidiaries. As of the date hereof, none of our PRC Subsidiaries has distributed any dividends to Yingxi HK.

Pursuant to the Arrangement between Mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion on Income, or the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, the 10% withholding tax rate may be lowered to 5% if a Hong Kong resident enterprise owns no less than 25% of a PRC project. However, the 5% withholding tax rate does not automatically apply and certain requirements must be satisfied, including without limitation that (a) the Hong Kong project must be the beneficial owner of the relevant dividends; and (b) the Hong Kong project must directly hold no less than 25% share ownership in the PRC project during the 12 consecutive months preceding its receipt of the dividends. In current practice, a Hong Kong project must obtain a tax resident certificate from the Hong Kong tax authority to apply for the 5% lower PRC withholding tax rate. As the Hong Kong tax authority will issue such a tax resident certificate on a case-by-case basis, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong tax authority and enjoy the preferential withholding tax rate of 5% under the Double Taxation Arrangement with respect to dividends to be paid by our WFOE to its immediate holding company, Yingxi HK. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not applied for the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong tax authority. Yingxi HK intends to apply for the tax resident certificate when WFOE plans to declare and pay dividends to Yingxi HK.

As of the date hereof, we have had no transactions that involved the transfer of cash or assets throughout our corporate structure. The PRC Subsidiaries have not transferred cash or other assets to Addentax, including by way of dividends. Addentax does not currently plan or anticipate transferring cash or other assets from our operations in China to any non-Chinese entity. As of the date hereof, no transfers, dividends, or distributions have been made to our investors.

Holding Foreign Company Accountable Act

Trading in our securities may be prohibited under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) determines that it cannot inspect or investigate completely our auditor.

Pursuant to the HFCAA, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (1) mainland China of the People’s Republic of China because of a position taken by one or more authorities in mainland China; and (2) Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region and dependency of the PRC, because of a position taken by one or more authorities in Hong Kong. In addition, the PCAOB’s report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to these determinations.

6

The PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections in China without the approval of Chinese government authorities. If it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate our auditor completely, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Any audit reports not issued by auditors that are completely inspected by the PCAOB, or a lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China that prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditors’ audits and their quality control procedures, could result in a lack of assurance that our financial statements and disclosures are adequate and accurate.

Our auditor, BF Borgers CPA PC, is an independent registered public accounting firm with the PCAOB, and as an auditor of publicly traded companies in the U.S., is subject to numerous riskslaws in the U.S. pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. BF Borgers CPA PC is based in the United States and uncertainties that you shouldhas been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis, with the last inspection in November and December of 2021. BF Borgers CPA PC, is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified as a firm subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. Should the PCAOB be awareunable to fully conduct inspection of before making an investment decision. We face many risks inherentour auditor’s work papers in China, it will make it difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures or equity control procedures. Investors may consequently lose confidence in our businessreported financial information and procedures or quality of the financial statements, which would adversely affect us and our industry generally. You should carefully consider allsecurities.

On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it had signed the “Protocol” with the CSRC and the MOF, which governs inspections and investigations of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. The Protocol remains unpublished and is subject to further explanation and implementation. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol released by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and the unfettered ability to transfer information set forth in this prospectus and, in particular,to the informationSEC. According to the PCAOB, its December 2021 determinations under the heading “Risk Factors,” priorHFCAA remain in effect. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB secures complete access to making an investmentinspect, investigate audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. It is possible when the PCAOB may reassess its determinations in the future, and it could determine that it is still unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong. The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and related regulations currently previously did not affect the Company as the Company’s auditor is subject to PCAOB’s inspections and investigations.

Moreover, if trading in our common stock. These risks include, among others,securities is prohibited under the following:HFCAA in the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, an exchange may determine to delist our securities.

Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“AHFCAA”), which, if enacted, would amend the HFCAA and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three. If the AHFCAA is enacted, and if we are subject to it, it would decrease the number of “non-inspection years” from three years to two years, and thus, would reduce the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

Emerging Growth Company

As a company with less than US$1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

If we are unable to attract additional customers and clients to purchase our services (and future products we may develop or sell) it will have a negative effect on our ability to generate the revenue.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, with the exception of the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions until we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. The JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” at the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, herein referred to as the Securities Act, occurred, if we have more than US$1.235 billion in annual revenues, have more than US$700 million in market value of the common stocks held by non-affiliates, or issue more than US$1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

RISK FACTORS

 

YouInvesting in our securities involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus and in the documents we incorporate by reference herein, you should carefully consider the risks describeddiscussed below and elsewhereunder the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operationsAnnual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 as well as any amendment or financial condition. Our business faces significantupdate to our risk factors reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, before making a decision about investing in our securities. The risks and uncertainties discussed below and in the risks described below maydocuments incorporated by reference are not be the only risks we face.ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently believe aresee as immaterial, may materially affectalso harm our business, results of operations, or financial condition.business. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed, the trading price of our common stockstocks could decline and you maycould lose allpart or partall of your investment. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the challenges we face, including the ones discussed in this section. In the event that any of the events described in the risk factors below occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our operations and cash flow and cause the value of our securities to decline in value or become worthless.

Risks Associated with Our Company

Our success depends on our customer’s ability to market and sell their products manufactured by us.

All of our customers in our garment manufacturing business are garment wholesalers and retailers. Consequently, our business and results of operations are directly affected by the demand of their end customers for their products supplied by us. Drastic changes in consumer preferences are beyond our control and will affect the demand for certain products supplied by us. We may not be able to anticipate and respond to such changes in consumer preferences in a timely manner. If the sales of our customers’ products decrease or do not grow as we expect, our customers may decrease the volume or purchase price of their orders, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our future expansion plans are subject to uncertainties and risks.

We have set out our future business plans in the “Business – Business Strategies” section in this prospectus. The implementation of such future plans requires us to effectively manage our sales, procurement, new logistics points and other aspects of our operations. If we fail to effectively and efficiently implement our future plans, we may not be successful in achieving desirable and profitable results. Even if we effectively and efficiently implement our future plans, there may be other unexpected events or factors that prevent us from achieving the desirable and profitable results from the implementation of our future plans, such as changes in our ability to comply with local rules and regulations or any delays or difficulties in obtaining the necessary licenses and approvals from local governments. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected if our future expansion plans fail to achieve positive results.

If we are unable to create brand influence, we may face difficulties in attracting new business partners and clients.

Our brand is still being nurtured. It is of critical importance that we create and develop brand awareness in our industry in order to attract new clients and business partners. Our major competitors have built well-known brands and continue to increase their influence. Our failure to create and develop brand awareness for any reason may result in a material adverse effect on our business, operational results, and financial position.

Our ability to adequately protect our trade names, trademarks and patents could have an impact on our brand images and ability to penetrate new markets.

We believe that our trade names, trademarks and patents are important assets and an essential element of our strategy. We have applied the registration of these trade names, trademarks and patents in China and Hong Kong, and these registrations are currently pending approval from the corresponding departments. There can be no assurance that we will obtain such registrations or that the registrations we obtain will prevent the imitation of our products or infringement of our intellectual property rights by others. In particular, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. If any third-party copies our products or our stores in a manner that projects lesser quality or carries a negative connotation, it could have a material adverse effect on our brand image and reputation as well as our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

-8-

We may be impacted by our ability to adequately source, distribute and sell merchandise and other materials in China.

We face a variety of other risks generally associated with doing business in China. For example:

political instability, significant health hazards, environmental hazards or natural disasters which could negatively affect international economies, financial markets and business activity;
imposition of new or retaliatory trade duties, sanctions or taxes and other charges on imports or exports;
evolving, new or complex legal and regulatory matters;
volatility in currency exchange rates;
local business practice and political issues (including issues relating to compliance with domestic or international labor standards) which may result in adverse publicity or threatened or actual adverse consumer actions, including boycotts;
potential delays or disruptions in shipping and transportation and related pricing impacts;
disruption due to labor disputes; and
changing expectations regarding product safety due to new legislation or other factors.

We also rely upon third-party transportation providers for certain of our product shipments, including shipments to and from our distribution centers, to our customers. Our utilization of these delivery services for shipments is subject to risks, including increases in labor costs and fuel prices, which would increase our shipping costs, and associate strikes and inclement weather, which may impact our transportation providers’ ability to provide delivery services that adequately meet our shipping needs.

Future price increases in raw materials or changes in the supply of raw materials may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The purchase of raw materials accounted for a substantial amount of our total purchases. The price of finished fabric and yarns can be volatile and affected by factors such as weather, industry demand and supply. We cannot assure you that we can fully pass on the increased cost in raw materials to our customers. Future price increases in raw materials or changes in the supply of raw materials may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Future increases in cost of epidemic prevention supplies or changes in the demand and supply may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The purchase of epidemic prevention supplies accounted for a substantial amount of our total purchases for the fiscal year 2021. The price of finished face masks and nitrile gloves can be volatile and affected by factors such as COVID-19 outbreak condition, weather, industry demand and supply. We cannot assure you that we can fully pass on the increased cost to our customers. Future increases in cost of epidemic prevention supplies or changes in the demand and supply may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The company’s revenue increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 due to a new business segment of epidemic prevention supplies business. The company made a significant net loss despite of its overall revenue increase and the addition of a new business segment. During first nine months of fiscal 2021, we accepted a nitrile glove purchase order from a customer. However, due to significant price increase in nitrile glove due to the COVID-19 driven demand surge and the shortage of raw materials, the Company incurred a significant loss during this period.

Our top customers accounted for a major portion of our total revenue for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and may materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

For the year ended March 31, 2020, two customers accounted for approximately 85.5%, and 10.2% of the Company’s total garment manufacturing revenues. For the year ended March 31, 2019, one customer accounted for approximately 28.7% of the Company’s total garment manufacturing revenues. For the year ended March 31, 2020, three customers accounted for approximately 22.4%, 18.3% and 17.8% of the Company’s total logistic services revenues. For the year ended March 31, 2019, three customers accounted for approximately 27.4%, 18.8% and 17.6% of the Company’s total logistic services revenues. However, our top customers are not obligated in any way to continue to provide us with new businesses in the future at a level similar to that in the past or at all. If any of our top customers reduce their orders with us or terminate the business relationship with our Group and if we are not able to secure orders of a comparable size from other customers as replacement, our business operations and financial performance may be materially and adversely affected.

We are exposed to concentration risk of heavy reliance on our major supplier for the supply of our products, and any shortage of, or delay in, the supply may significantly impact on our business and results of operation.

During the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, approximately 92.7% and 39% of total inventory purchases were from the Company’s five largest suppliers. Our business, financial condition and operating results depend on the continuous supply of products from our major supplier and our continuous supplier-customer relationship with it. Our heavy reliance on our major supplier for the supply of our products will have significant impact on our business and results of operation in the event of any shortage of, or delay in the supply.

Any labor shortages, increased labor costs or other factors affecting labor supply for our production materials may materially and adversely affect our business operations.

We rely on skilled workers to a significant extent as our production process in our garment manufacturing business is labor intensive in nature. Our business performance relies on the steady supply of relatively low cost labor in the PRC. There is no guarantee that our supply of labor will not be disrupted or that our labor costs will not increase. If we fail to retain our existing labor resources and/or recruit sufficient labor in a timely manner, we may not be able to accommodate sudden increases in demand for our products.

Labor costs are affected by the demand for and supply of labor and economic factors, such as the inflation rate and costs of living. Labor costs may further increase in the future due to a shortage of skilled labor and growing industry demands. The failure to identify and recruit replacement staff immediately following the unexpected loss of skilled workers could reduce our competitiveness. In addition, we expect continued increases in labor costs in the PRC. In these circumstances, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

-9-

We may be impacted by our ability to attract, develop and retain qualified associates and manage labor-related costs.

We believe our competitive advantage is providing a positive, engaging and satisfying experience for each customer, which requires us to have highly trained and engaged associates. Our success depends in part upon our ability to attract, develop and retain a sufficient number of qualified associates, including skill intensive labor. The turnover rate in the textile industry is generally high, and qualified individuals of the requisite caliber and number needed to fill these positions may be in short supply in our operations. Competition for such qualified individuals or changes in labor laws could require us to incur higher labor costs. Our inability to recruit a sufficient number of qualified individuals in the future may delay planned delivery of finished products or affect the speed with which we expand. Delayed deliveries, significant increases in associate turnover rates or significant increases in labor-related costs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

We may be impacted by our vendors’ ability to manufacture and deliver raw materials in a timely manner, meet quality standards and comply with applicable laws and regulations.

We purchase raw materials from third-party vendors. Factors outside our control, such as production or shipping delays or quality problems, could disrupt merchandise deliveries and result in lost sales, cancellation charges or excessive markdowns.

In addition, quality problems could result in a product liability judgment or a widespread product recall that may negatively impact our sales and profitability for a period of time depending on product availability, competition reaction and consumer attitudes. Even if the product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertions could adversely impact our reputation with existing and potential customers and our brand image.

Our business could also suffer if our third-party vendors fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations. While our internal and vendor’s operating guidelines promote ethical business practices and our associates visit and monitor the operations of our third-party vendors, we do not control these vendors or their practices. The violation of labor, environmental or other laws by third-party vendors used by us, or the divergence of a third-party vendor’s or partner’s labor or environmental practices from those generally accepted as ethical or appropriate, could interrupt or otherwise disrupt the shipment of finished products to us or damage our reputation.

Large and similar sized competitors could steal our market share by offering lower prices.

We endeavor to provide the highest possible quality service to our clients at the best possible price, however, large and similar sized competitors might steal some of our market share by offering lower prices, causing us to lose some of our clients. If this happens, we might not be able to generate adequate revenues and may soon find ourselves lacking the capital that is required to continue operations.

If we are unable to attract additional customers and clients to purchase our services (and future products we may develop or sell), it will have a negative effect on our ability to generate the revenue.

We currently have a limited number of clients and customers. We have identified additional potential clients, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to secure them as clients. Even if we obtain additional clients and customers, there is no guarantee that we will be able to develop products and/or services that our clients and customers will want to purchase. If we are unable to attract enough customers and clients to purchase services (and any products we may develop or sell) it will have a negative effect on our ability to generate the revenue that is necessary to operate or expand our business. The lack of sufficient revenue will have a negative effect on the ability of our company to continue operations and could force us to cease operations.

-10-

We may be adversely affected by the performance of third-party contractors.

We engaged third-party contractors to carry out logistics services. We endeavor to engage third-party companies with a strong reputation and track record, high performance reliability and adequate financial resources. However, any such third-party contractor may still fail to provide satisfactory logistics services at the level of quality or within the timeframe required by us or our customers. While we generally require our logistics contractors to fully reimburse us for any losses arising from delay in delivery or non-delivery, our results of operation and financial condition may be adversely affected if any of the losses are not borne by them. If the performance of any third-party contractor is not satisfactory, we may need to replace such contractor or take other remedial actions, which could adversely affect the cost structure and delivery schedule of our products and thus have a negative impact on our reputation, financial position and business operations. In addition, as we are expanding our business into other geographical locations in the PRC, there may be a shortage of third-party contractors that meet our quality standards and other selection criteria in such locations and, as a result, we may not be able to engage a sufficient number of high-quality third-party contractors in a timely manner, which may adversely affect our delivery schedules and delivery costs and hence our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

Our insurance may not be sufficient.

We carry insurance that we consider adequate in regard to the nature of the covered risks and the costs of coverage. We are not fully insured against all possible risks, nor are all such risks insurable.

Our business depends on the continued contributions made by Mr. Hong Zhida, as our key executive officer, the loss of who may result in a severe impediment to our business.

Our success is dependent upon the continued contributions made by our CEO and President, Mr. Hong Zhida. We rely on his expertise in business operations when we are developing new products and services. The Company has no “Key Man” insurance to cover the resulting losses in the event that any of our officer or directors should die or resign.

If Mr. Hong Zhida cannot serve the Company or is no longer willing to do so, the Company may not be able to find alternatives in a timely manner or at all. This would likely result in a severe damage to our business operations and would have an adverse material impact on our financial position and operational results. To continue as a viable operation, the Company may have to recruit and train replacement personnel at a higher cost.

Additionally, if Mr. Hong Zhida joins our competitors or develops similar businesses that are in competition with our Company, our business may also be negatively impacted.

Our future success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified long-term staff to fill management, technology, sales, marketing, and customer services positions. We have a great need for qualified talent, but we may not be successful in attracting, hiring, developing, and retaining the talent required for our success.

We may be adversely impacted by certain compliance or legal matters.

We, along with third parties we do business with, are subject to complex compliance and litigation risks. Actions filed against us from time to time include commercial, tort, intellectual property, customer, employment, wage and hour, data privacy, securities, anti-corruption and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. The cost of defending against these types of claims against us or the ultimate resolution of such claims, whether by settlement or adverse court decision, may harm our business. Further, potential claimants may be encouraged to bring lawsuits based on a settlement from us or adverse court decisions against us. We cannot currently assess the likely outcome of such suits, but if the outcome were negative, it could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

-11-

In addition, we may be impacted by litigation trends, including class action lawsuits involving consumers and shareholders, that could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, the market price of our common stock, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefits plans as required by PRC regulations may subject us to penalties.

Companies operating in China are required to participate in various government sponsored employee benefit plans, including certain social insurance, housing funds and other welfare-oriented payment obligations, and contribute to the plans in amounts equal to certain percentages of salaries, including bonuses and allowances, of employees up to a maximum amount specified by the local government from time to time at locations where they operate their businesses. The requirement of employee benefit plans has not been implemented consistently by the local governments in China given the different levels of economic development in different locations. As of December 31, 2020, we have made adequate employee benefit payments in strict compliance with the relevant PRC regulations for and on behalf of our employees.

There is no guarantee that we will not fail in making adequate employee benefit payments in strict compliance with applicable PRC labor related laws and regulations in the future. Our failure in making contributions to various employee benefits plans in strict compliance with applicable PRC labor related laws and regulations may subject us to late payment penalties, and we could also be required to make up the contributions for these plans as well as to pay late fees and fines. If we are subject to late fees or fines in relation to the underpaid employee benefits, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

A recent joint statement by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), or the “PCAOB,” proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq, and the newly enacted “Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act” all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to our offering.

On April 21, 2020, the SEC and the PCAOB released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or having substantial operations in emerging markets including China. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

On May 18, 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply a minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market,” (ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or the board of directors for Restrictive Market companies, and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditor.

On December 18, 2020, the “Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act” was signed by previous President of the United States and became law. This legislation requires certain issuers of securities to establish that they are not owned or controlled by a foreign government. Specifically, an issuer must make this certification if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the issuer has retained a foreign public accounting firm not subject to inspection by the PCAOB. Furthermore, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect the issuer's public accounting firm for three consecutive years, the issuer's securities are banned from trade on a national exchange or through other methods. 

The lack of access to the PCAOB inspection in China prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of these accounting firm’s audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections, which could cause investors and potential investors in our Ordinary Shares to lose confidence in our audit procedures and reported financial information and the quality of our financial statements.

-12-

Our auditor, BF Borgers CPA PC, is an independent registered public accounting firm with the PCAOB, and as an auditor of publicly traded companies in the U.S., is subject to laws in the U.S. pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Our auditor has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. If we were to be found out of compliance with the existing or future guidelines discussed above, it may impair or halt the ability to trade our shares on Nasdaq or other applicable trading market within the US.

There are uncertainties under the PRC Securities Law relating to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC.

On December 28, 2019, the newly amended Securities Law of the PRC (the “PRC Securities Law”) was promulgated, which became effective on March 1, 2020. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law (“Article 177”), the securities regulatory authority of the State Council may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with securities regulatory authorities of another country or region for the implementation of cross-border supervision and administration. Article 177 further provides that overseas securities regulatory authorities shall not engage in activities pertaining to investigations or evidence collection directly conducted within the territories of the PRC, and that no Chinese entities or individuals shall provide documents and information in connection with securities business activities to any organizations and/or persons aboard without the prior consent of the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council. As of the date of this prospectus, we are not aware of any implementing rules or regulations which have been published regarding application of Article 177.

As advised by our PRC counsel, Article 177 is only applicable where the activities of overseas authorities constitute a direct investigation or evidence collection by such authorities within the territory of the PRC. Our principal business operation is conducted in the PRC. In the event that the U.S. securities regulatory agencies carry out an investigation on us such as an enforcement action by the Department of Justice, the SEC or other authorities, such agencies’ activities will constitute conducting an investigation or collecting evidence directly within the territory of the PRC and accordingly fall within the scope of Article 177. In that case, the U.S. securities regulatory agencies may have to consider establishing cross-border cooperation with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC by way of judicial assistance, diplomatic channels or establishing a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC. However, there is no assurance that the U.S. securities regulatory agencies will succeed in establishing such cross-border cooperation in this particular case and/or establish such cooperation in a timely manner.

Furthermore, as Article 177 is a recently promulgated provision and, as the date of this prospectus, there have not been implementing rules or regulations regarding the application of Article 177, it remains unclear as to how it will be interpreted, implemented or applied by the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission or other relevant government authorities. As such, there are uncertainties as to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC. If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, there exists a risk that they may determine to suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and may also delist our securities from Nasdaq or other applicable trading market within the US.

We are exposed to liabilities relating to environmental protection and safety laws and regulations.

Our operations are subject to comprehensive and frequently changing laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and health and safety. The discharge of waste and pollutants from our manufacturing operations into the environment may give rise to liabilities that may require us to incur costs to remedy such discharge. If we violate such laws or regulations, we may be required to implement corrective actions and could be subject to civil or criminal fines or penalties or other sanctions.

However, we cannot assure you that any environmental laws adopted in the future will not materially increase our operating costs and other expenses. We cannot assure you that we will not have to make significant capital or operating expenditures in the future in order to comply with existing or new laws and regulations or that we will comply with applicable environmental laws at all times. Such violations or liability could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If our employees do not maintain a strong work ethic and comply with our code of ethics, including our confidentiality requirements, their actions may negatively influence our business and reputation.

Employees with good professional ethics are important for any company’s development. An employee might, either intentionally or unintentionally, disclose confidential information about our Company or our clients and particularly unscrupulous employees might endeavor to sell material information to industry competitors. Furthermore, our employees will develop relationships with our business partners and clients, and may acquire information that could be used to harm their business interests. If this should happen, our partners and clients might lose faith in our company. While we can never eliminate these ethical risks entirely, we will attempt to reduce the likelihood of breaches of trust and mitigate their impacts of it by hiring highly professional employees and establishing strong internal information management systems.

We also plan to establish a series of policies to reduce the likelihood of such events.

However, in the event that any employee discloses confidential information about our Company or our clients or sells material information to industry competitors, it could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, operations and cash flow.

We face risks associated with future Chinese regulations.

Currently there are no government regulations in China regarding our type of services. The Chinese government encourages small-medium sized traditional industry companies to conduct business model transformation and technology updates, which may help companies gain more competitive advantages in international markets.

Other than the required adherence to general business laws and regulatory disclosures, our services are not affected by any specific additional Chinese government regulations. However, this does not preclude the possibility that China may institute regulations that will make it difficult or impossible for us to operate successfully, if at all, in the future. If that occurs, we may have to focus our business on companies located outside China. This could cause our results of operations to be materially adversely effected, reduce our revenues and cause the value of our securities to decline in value.

-13-

We may require additional financing in the future and our operations could be curtailed if we are unable to obtain required additional financing when needed.

We may need to obtain additional debt or equity financing to fund future capital expenditures. While we do not anticipate seeking additional financing in the immediate future, any additional equity may result in dilution to the holders of our outstanding shares of capital stock. Additional debt financing may include conditions that would restrict our freedom to operate our business, such as conditions that:

limit our ability to pay dividends or require us to seek consent for the payment of dividends;
increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
require us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund capital expenditures, working capital and other general corporate purposes; and
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.

Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.

Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, international commerce and the global economy, and thus could have a strong negative effect on us. Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, fire, power shortages, pandemics and other events beyond our control. This may result in delivery delays, malfunctioning of facilities or shutdown of logistic points. Such events could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver our products and services to our customers and could decrease demand for our services. In the past, there was no significant disruption of operation at our production facilities and logistic points. However, we could not assure you that the production facilities and logistic points will always operate normally in the future.

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

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” including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

General Risks Associated with Business Operations in China

You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

We are a Nevada corporation and most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Almost all of our operations will be conducted in China. In addition, our officers and directors are nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. All of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon them. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officer and director, since he is not a resident in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of China would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts.

Foreign exchange fluctuations may affect our business.

We accept the payment for services in Chinese Yuan (CNY), Hong Kong Dollars (HKD), and U.S. Dollars (USD). Therefore, foreign exchange fluctuations may influence our business in unpredictable ways.

-14-

The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions and the foreign exchange policy adopted by the PRC government. For instance, in August 2015, the People’s Bank of China, or PBOC, changed the way it calculates the mid-point price of Renminbi against the U.S. dollar, requiring the market-makers who submit for reference rates to consider the previous day’s closing spot rate, foreign-exchange demand and supply as well as changes in major currency rates. In fiscal year 2019 and 2020, the value of the Renminbi depreciated by approximately 6.9% and 5.5% against the U.S. dollar, respectively. From the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 through the end of December 2020, the value of the Renminbi appreciated by approximately 7.8% against the U.S. dollar. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy, including any interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve, may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt a more flexible currency policy, including from the U.S. government, which has threatened to label China as a “currency manipulator,” which could result in greater fluctuation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.

A substantial percentage of our revenues and costs are denominated in Renminbi, and a significant portion of our assets are also denominated in Renminbi. We are a holding company and we rely on dividends, loans and other distributions on equity paid by our operating subsidiaries in China. Any significant fluctuations in the value of the Renminbi may materially and adversely affect our liquidity and cash flows. Appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount we would receive. Conversely, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount we would receive.

Inflation could pose a risk to our business.

Inflation is an important factor that must be considered as we move forward. A change in the rate of inflation could influence the profits that we generate from our business. When the rate of inflation rises, the operational costs of running our company would increase, such as labor costs, raw materials and public utilities, affecting our ability to provide our services at competitive prices. An increase in the rate of inflation would force our clients to search for other service providers, causing us to lose business and revenue.

We face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we may be able to conduct in the PRC and the profitability of such business.

The PRC’s economy is in a transition from a planned economy to a market oriented economy subject to five-year and annual plans adopted by the central government that set national economic development goals. Policies of the PRC government can have significant effects on the economic conditions of the PRC. The PRC government has confirmed that economic development will follow the model of a market economy. Under this direction, we believe that the PRC will continue to strengthen its economic and trading relationships with foreign countries and business development in the PRC will follow market forces. While we believe that this trend will continue, we cannot assure you that this will be the case. A change in policies by the PRC government could adversely affect our interests by, among other factors: changes in laws, regulations or the interpretation thereof, confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports or sources of supplies, or the expropriation or nationalization of private enterprises. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than two decades, we cannot assure you that the government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption, or other circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social environment.

There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws, rules and regulations.

Most of our operations are conducted in the PRC, and are governed by PRC laws, rules and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are subject to laws, rules and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.

-15-

In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws, rules and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past four decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws, rules and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China or may be subject to significant degree of interpretation by PRC regulatory agencies and courts. In particular, because these laws, rules and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited number of published decisions and the non-precedential nature of these decisions, and because the laws, rules and regulations often give the relevant regulator significant discretion in how to enforce them, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws, rules and regulations involve uncertainties and can be inconsistent and unpredictable. Therefore, it is possible that our existing operations may be found not to be in full compliance with relevant laws and regulations in the future. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all, and which may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until after the occurrence of the violation.

Any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. These uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

PRC regulations regarding acquisitions impose significant regulatory approval and review requirements, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions.

Under the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law, companies undertaking acquisitions relating to businesses in China must notify the anti-monopoly enforcement agency, in advance of any transaction where the parties’ revenues in the China market exceed certain thresholds and the buyer would obtain control of, or decisive influence over, the other party. In addition, on August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the MOFCOM, the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the State Administration of Taxation, the SAIC, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, jointly adopted the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, which came into effect on September 8, 2006 and was amended on June 22, 2009. Under the M&A Rules, the approval of MOFCOM must be obtained in circumstances where overseas companies established or controlled by PRC enterprises or residents acquire domestic companies affiliated with such PRC enterprises or residents. Applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations also require certain merger and acquisition transactions to be subject to security review.

PRC regulations relating to investments in offshore companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC-resident beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to liability or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries or limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits.

SAFE promulgated the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 37, on July 4, 2014, which replaced the former circular commonly known as “SAFE Circular 75” promulgated by SAFE on October 21, 2005. SAFE Circular 37 requires PRC residents to register with local branches of SAFE in connection with their direct establishment or indirect control of an offshore entity, for the purpose of overseas investment and financing, with such PRC residents’ legally owned assets or equity interests in domestic enterprises or offshore assets or interests, referred to in SAFE Circular 37 as a “special purpose vehicle.” SAFE Circular 37 further requires amendment to the registration in the event of any significant changes with respect to the special purpose vehicle, such as increase or decrease of capital contributed by PRC individuals, share transfer or exchange, merger, division or other material event. In the event that a PRC shareholder holding interests in a special purpose vehicle fails to fulfill the required SAFE registration, the PRC subsidiaries of that special purpose vehicle may be prohibited from making profit distributions to the offshore parent and from carrying out subsequent cross-border foreign exchange activities, and the special purpose vehicle may be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital into its PRC subsidiary. Moreover, failure to comply with the various SAFE registration requirements described above could result in liability under PRC law for evasion of foreign exchange controls.

-16-

We have notified substantial beneficial owners of shares of common stock who we know are PRC residents of their filing obligation, and pursuant to SAFE Circular 37, we have periodically filed and updated the above-mentioned foreign exchange registration on behalf of certain employee shareholders who we know are PRC residents. However, we may not be aware of the identities of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. We do not have control over our beneficial owners and cannot assure you that all of our PRC-resident beneficial owners will comply with SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules. The failure of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents to register or amend their SAFE registrations in a timely manner pursuant to SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, or the failure of future beneficial owners of our company who are PRC residents to comply with the registration procedures set forth in SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, may subject the beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiaries to fines and legal sanctions. On February 13, 2015, SAFE promulgated a Notice on Further Simplifying and Improving Foreign Exchange Administration Policy on Direct Investment, or SAFE Notice 13, which became effective on June 1, 2015. Pursuant to SAFE Notice 13, entities and individuals are required to apply for foreign exchange registration of foreign direct investment and overseas direct investment, including those required under the SAFE Circular 37, with designated domestic banks, instead of SAFE. The designated domestic banks will directly review the applications and conduct the registration.

Furthermore, since it is unclear how those new SAFE regulations, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant PRC government authorities, we cannot predict how these regulations will affect our business operations or future strategy. Failure to register or comply with relevant requirements may also limit our ability to contribute additional capital to our PRC subsidiaries and limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to our company. These risks may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be treated as a resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, and we may therefore be subject to PRC income tax on our global income.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementing rules, both of which came into effect on January 1, 2008, enterprises established under the laws of jurisdictions outside of China with “de facto management bodies” located in China may be considered PRC tax resident enterprises for tax purposes and may be subject to the PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on their global income. “De facto management body” refers to a managing body that exercises substantive and overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting books and assets of an enterprise. The State Administration of Taxation issued the Notice Regarding the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Offshore-Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprises on the basis of de facto management bodies, or Circular 82, on April 22, 2009. Circular 82 provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a Chinese-controlled offshore-incorporated enterprise is located in China. Although Circular 82 only applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises, not those controlled by foreign enterprises or individuals, the determining criteria set forth in Circular 82 may reflect the State Administration of Taxation’s general position on how the “de facto management body” test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises. If we were to be considered a PRC resident enterprise, we would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on our global income. In such case, our profitability and cash flow may be materially reduced as a result of our global income being taxed under the Enterprise Income Tax Law. We believe that none of our entities outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.”

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize our PRC revenue effectively.

Substantially all of our revenue is denominated in Renminbi. The Renminbi is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but requires approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities or designated banks under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans, including loans we may secure from our onshore subsidiaries or variable interest entities. Currently, our PRC subsidiaries, which are wholly-foreign owned enterprises, may purchase foreign currency for settlement of “current account transactions,” including payment of dividends to us, without the approval of SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant PRC governmental authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future for current account transactions.

-17-

Since 2016, PRC governmental authorities have imposed more stringent restrictions on outbound capital flows, including heightened scrutiny over “irrational” overseas investments for certain industries, as well as over four kinds of “abnormal” offshore investments, which are:

● investments through enterprises established for only a few months without substantive operation;

● investments with amounts far exceeding the registered capital of onshore parent and not supported by its business performance shown on financial statements;

● investments in targets which are unrelated to onshore parent’s main business; and

● investments with abnormal sources of Renminbi funding suspected to be involved in illegal transfer of assets or illegal operation of underground banking.

On January 26, 2017, SAFE promulgated the Circular on Further Improving Reform of Foreign Exchange Administration and Optimizing Genuineness and Compliance Verification, which tightened the authenticity and compliance verification of cross-border transactions and cross-border capital flow, including requiring banks to verify board resolutions, tax filing forms and audited financial statements before wiring foreign invested enterprises’ foreign exchange dividend distribution of over US$50,000. In addition, the Outbound Investment Sensitive Industry Catalogue (2018) lists certain sensitive industries that are subject to NDRC pre-approval requirements prior to remitting investment funds offshore, which subjects us to increased approval requirements and restrictions with respect to our overseas investment activity. Since a significant amount of our PRC revenue is denominated in Renminbi, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Renminbi to fund our business activities outside of the PRC, make investments, service any debt we may incur outside of China or pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders.

The disclosures in our reports and other filings with the SEC and our other public pronouncements are not subject to the scrutiny of any regulatory bodies in the PRC.

We are regulated by the SEC and our reports and other filings with the SEC are subject to SEC review in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Our SEC reports and other disclosure and public pronouncements are not subject to the review or scrutiny of any PRC regulatory authority. For example, the disclosure in our SEC reports and other filings are not subject to the review by China Securities Regulatory Commission, a PRC regulator that is responsible for oversight of the capital markets in China. Accordingly, you should review our SEC reports, filings and our other public pronouncements with the understanding that no local regulator has done any review of us, our SEC reports, other filings or any of our other public pronouncements.

Introduction of new laws or changes to existing laws by the PRC government may adversely affect our business.

The PRC legal system is a codified legal system made up of written laws, regulations, circulars, administrative directives and internal guidelines. Unlike common law jurisdictions like the U.S., decided cases (which may be taken as reference) do not form part of the legal structure of the PRC and thus have no binding effect on subsequent cases with similar issues and fact patterns. Furthermore, in line with its transformation from a centrally-planned economy to a more free market-oriented economy, the PRC government is still in the process of developing a comprehensive set of laws and regulations. As the legal system in the PRC is still evolving, laws and regulations or the interpretation of the same may be subject to further changes. For example, the PRC government may impose restrictions on the amount of service fees that may be payable by municipal governments to wastewater and sludge treatment service providers. Also, the PRC central and municipal governments may impose more stringent environmental regulations which would affect our ability to comply with, or our costs to comply with, such regulations. Such changes, if implemented, may adversely affect our business operations and may reduce our profitability.

We may never be able to pay dividends and are unlikely to do so.PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF NOTES AND WARRANTS

 

ToOn January 4, 2023, the Company entered into the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement with the Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company received net proceeds of $15,000,000 in consideration of the issuance of:

Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $16,666,666.66;
PIPE Warrants to purchase up to 16,077,172 shares of our common stock of the Company until on or prior to 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the five year anniversary of the closing date at an exercise price of $1.25 per share.

The transactions contemplated under the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement closed on January 4, 2023. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes and the PIPE Warrants for general corporate purposes.

The Notes bear interest at an interest rate of 5% per annum payable on each installment date we have not paid, nor do we intend to paycommencing on the original date of issuance. If an Event of Default (as defined in the foreseeable future, dividends onNotes) has occurred and is continuing, interest would accrue at the rate of 18% per annum, compounding monthly. The Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock, even if we become profitable. Earnings, if any, are expectedbeginning after the original date of issuance at an initial conversion price of $1.25 per share. The conversion price is subject to be usedcustomary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to advance our activities and for working capital and general corporate purposes, rather than to make distributions to stockholders. Since we are not inprice-based adjustment, on a financial position to pay dividends on our common stock and future dividends are not presently being contemplated, investors are advised that return on investment in our common stock is restricted to an appreciation“full ratchet” basis, in the share price. The potential or likelihoodevent of an increase in share price is uncertain.

In addition, under Nevada law, we may only pay dividends subject to our ability to service our debts as they become due and provided that our assets will exceed our liabilities after the dividend. Our ability to pay dividends will therefore depend on our ability to generate sufficient profits. Further, because of the various rules applicable to our operations in China and the regulations on foreign investments as well as the applicable tax law, we may be subject to further limitations on our ability to declare and pay dividends to our shareholders.

Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of securities.

Wherever possible, our board of directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consistany issuances of shares of our common stock, warrants to purchaseor securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of our common stock at a price below the then-applicable conversion price (subject to certain exceptions).

The PIPE Warrants contain provisions permitting cashless exercise subject to certain conditions.

The Notes and the PIPE Warrants contain conversion limitations providing that a holder thereof may not convert the Notes or other securities. Our boardexercise the PIPE Warrants to the extent (but only to the extent) that, if after giving effect to such conversion or exercise, the holder or any of directorsits affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% the ordinary shares immediately after giving effect to such conversion or exercise. A holder may increase or decrease its beneficial ownership limitation upon notice to the Company provided that in no event such limitation exceeds 9.99%, and that any increase shall not be effective until the 61st day after such notice.

The Company has authority, without action or votealso entered into the Registration Rights Agreement to file with the SEC a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the shareholders,registrable securities under the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Notes will rank senior to issue all or partoutstanding and future indebtedness of the authorized but unissued sharesCompany and its Subsidiaries (as defined in the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement), and will be secured by a first priority perfected security interest in all of common stock or warrantsthe existing and future assets of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor (as defined in the Security and Pledge Agreement), as evidenced by (i) a security and pledge agreement to purchase such sharesbe entered into at closing (the “Security and Pledge Agreement”), (ii) account control agreements to be entered into at closing with respect to certain accounts described in the Note and the Security and Pledge Agreement, and (iii) a guaranty to be executed by certain subsidiaries of common stock. In addition, we may attemptthe Company (the “Guaranty”) pursuant to raise capital by sellingwhich each of them will guaranty the obligations of the Company under the Notes and the other transaction documents (as defined in the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement).

Pursuant to the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to seek the approval of its stockholders for the issuance of all shares of our common stock possibly at a discount to market in the future. These actions will result in dilutionissuable upon conversion of the ownership interestsNotes, in compliance with the rules of existing shareholders and may further dilute common stock book value, andthe Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Stockholder Approval”). It is a condition to the closing that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also servethe Company enter into voting agreements with certain significant stockholders of the Company (each, a “Stockholder”), pursuant to enhance existing management’s abilitywhich each Stockholder will agree, with respect to maintain controlall of us, because the shares may be issuedvoting securities of the Company that such Stockholder beneficially owns as of the date thereof or thereafter, to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.vote in favor of the Stockholder Approval.

 

InPursuant to an placement agency agreement dated January 4, 2023 between the event that our shares are traded, they may trade under $5.00 per shareCompany and thus will beUnivest Securities LLC (the “Placement Agent”), the Company engaged the Placement Agent to act as the Company’s placement agent in connection with the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement and agreed to pay the Placement Agent (i) a penny stock. Trading in penny stocks has many restrictions and these restrictions could severely affectcash fee equal to 7% of the price and liquiditygross proceeds raised by the Company from the sale of our shares.

In the event that our shares are traded, and our stock trades below $5.00 per share, our stock would be known as a “penny stock”, which is subject to various regulations involving disclosures to be given to you priorsecurities at the closing of the offering to the Purchasers; (ii) an out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of Placement Agent’s counsel and due diligence analysis; and (iii) the Placement Agent Warrant to purchase 5% of any penny stock.the aggregate number of conversion shares under the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement. The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share,Placement Agent Warrants contain provisions permitting cashless exercise subject to certain exceptions. Depending on market fluctuations, our common stock could be consideredconditions and registration rights to befile with the SEC a “penny stock”. A penny stock is subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established Members and accredited investors. For transactions covered by these rules,Registration Statement covering the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaseresale of these securities. In addition, he must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. He must also provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may negatively affect the ability of holders of shares of our common stock to resell them. These disclosures require you to acknowledge that you understand the risks associated with buying penny stocks and that you can absorb the loss of your entire investment. Penny stocks are low priced securities that do not have a very high trading volume. Consequently, the priceall of the stock is often volatile and you may not be able to buy or sell the stock when you want to.Placement Agent Warrant shares.

 

We will have discretion in applying a portion of the net proceeds of this offering and may not use these proceeds in ways that will enhance the market value of our common stock.

Our management will have considerable discretion in the application of the proceeds received by us from this offering. Such proceeds may be used to purchase and sell raw materials, grow our brand and for working capital and general corporate purposes. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. You must rely on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds of this offering. The net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not improve our profitability or increase our common stock price. The net proceeds from this offering may also be placed in investments that do not produce income or that lose value. Future issuances of capital stock may depress the trading price of our common stock. Any issuance of shares of our common stock after this offering could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders and could substantially decrease the trading price of our common stock. We may issue additional shares of common stock in the future for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy (including in connection with acquisitions, strategic collaborations or other transactions).

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could depress the market price of our common stock, and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock.

DILUTION

If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share you will pay in this offering and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2020 was ($3,065,809), or ($0.12) per share of common stock. Our pro forma net tangible book value per share set forth below represents our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on December 31, 2020.

If the shares are sold at the public offering price of $5.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting the estimated underwriter commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2020 would have been $19,358,483, or $0.61 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value to existing shareholders of $0.73 per share. The public offering price per share will significantly exceed the net tangible book value per share. Accordingly, new investors who purchase shares of common stock in this offering will suffer an immediate dilution of their investment of $4.39 per share. The following table illustrates this per share dilution to the new investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering:

  Offering(1)  

Full Over-

allotment

Post-offering(2)

 
Assumed offering price per share $5.00  $5.00
Net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2020 $(0.12) $(0.12)
Increase in net tangible book value per share after this offering $0.73  $0.82 
Net tangible book value per common stock after the offering $0.61  $0.70 
Dilution per common stock to new investors $4.39  $4.18 

(1)Assumes gross proceeds from offering of 5,000,000 shares.
(2)Assumes gross proceeds from offering of 5,750,000 shares, if over-allotment option is exercised in full.

A $1.00 increase (decrease) in the public offering price of $5.00 per share would increase (decrease) the pro forma net tangible book value by $4,600,159, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering by $0.14 per share and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering by $0.86 per share, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the underwriter commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “ATXG.”

Trading in stocks quoted on the OTCQB is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market for our common stock in the future.

We received our trading symbol on September 12, 2016 and were first quoted on September 12, 2016 but no shares were traded until December 12, 2016.

The following table sets forth the high and low trading prices of one share of our common stock for each fiscal quarter over the past two fiscal years, and April 1, 2019 to the date of this prospectus. The quotations provided are for the over the counter market, which reflect interdealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions. Our common stock trades on a limited, sporadic and volatile basis. These high and low bid prices per share of common stock have been adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our common stock effected on February 27, 2019.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Statements

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our “Selected Historical Financial and Operation Data” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus. In preparation of this prospectus, we reperformed the assessment on goodwill for impairment test as of March 31, 2020 and due to the impact on business environment of Covind-19 outbreak in PRC, it was determined that recoverable amount of one of the Company’s reporting units was lower than the carrying amount of the goodwill recorded as of March 31, 2018. Therefore, it was concluded that the carrying amount of said goodwill should have been fully impaired as of March 31, 2018. The Company has restated the impairment of goodwill as if it was fully impaired during the year ended March 31, 2018. The Comprehensive Loss for the year ended March 31, 2020 decreased by $475,003. The long live assets as of March 31, 2019 decreased by $475,003. The accumulative accumulated deficits as of March 31, 2019 increased by the same amount. The restatement has no impact on previously reported “cash flows” amount. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Where possible, we have tried to identify these forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intends,” or similar expressions. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

This prospectus contains statements that we believe are, or may be considered to be, “forward-looking statements”. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this prospectus regarding the prospects of our industry or our prospects, plans, financial position or business strategy, may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “foresee,” “project,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plans,” “forecasts,” “continue” or “could” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terms. Furthermore, such forward-looking statements may be included in various filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission or press releases or oral statements made by or with the approval of one of our authorized executive officers. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this prospectus.

You should read the matters described in “Risk Factors” and the other cautionary statements made in this prospectus, and incorporated by reference herein, as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this prospectus. We cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this prospectus will prove to be accurate and therefore prospective investors are encouraged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these audited financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates past judgments and estimates, including those related to bad debts, accrued liabilities, convertible promissory notes and contingencies. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The accounting policies and related risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July, 2020 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates.

Corporate History

Addentax Group Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 28, 2014. We were originally incorporated to produce images on multiple surfaces, such as glass, leather, plastic, ceramic, textile, and others using a 3D sublimation vacuum heat transfer machine. We no longer pursue opportunities related to 3D printing positioning.

We have a fiscal year-end of March 31. On July 12, 2016, we filed an amendment to our articles of incorporation, which amendment was effectuated by our transfer agent on July 20, 2016. The certificate of amendment was filed in order to undertake a two for one forward stock split and increase our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 150,000,000 shares, which forward stock split has been retroactively reflected throughout this prospectus. On February 27, 2019, we filed a Certificate of Change to effect a 1-for-20 reverse stock split, which reduced our authorized shares of common stock to 50,000,000 shares.

Current Business

Effective December 28, 2016, the Company executed a Sale & Purchase Agreement (“S&P”) for the acquisition of 100% of the shares of Yingxi Industrial Chain Group Co., Ltd. (“YICG”), a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles. YICG is currently a garment manufacturer. Intending to diversify its service portfolio, the Company plans to develop another branch of business: international supply chain management consulting service, which will focus exclusively on the textile & garments industry. The Company plans to assist clients to open textile and garment sales outlets throughout China. The Company will also provide assistance services in plan implementation. Pursuant to the S&P, which transaction closed on September 25, 2017, the Company issued five hundred million (500,000,000) restricted common shares of the Company to the owners of Yingxi Industrial Chain Group Co., Ltd. in consideration for the acquisition of YICG.

After the Share Exchange, YICG’s business became our business. We are a garment manufacturer and logistics service provider based in China. Our common stock is listed on the OTCQB under the symbol of “ATXG”. We classified our businesses into two revenue segments for the fiscal year ended 2020 and in previous fiscal years: (i) garment manufacturing and (ii) logistics services. During the fiscal year 2021, we developed a new business segment: epidemic prevention supplies.

Our garment manufacturing business consists of sales made principally to wholesalers located in China. We have our own manufacturing facilities, with sufficient production capacity and skilled workers on production lines to ensure that we meet our high quality control standards and timely delivery requirements for our customers. We conduct our garment manufacturing operations through five indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, namely Dongguan Heng Sheng Wei Garments Co., Ltd (“HSW”), Shantou Chenghai Dai Tou Garments Co., Ltd (“DT”), Dongguan Yingxi Daying Commercial Co., Ltd (“DY”), Dongguan Yushang Clothing Co., Ltd (“YS”), and Shantou Yi Bai Yi Garments Co., Ltd (“YBY”) which are located in the Guangdong province, China.

Our logistics services business consists of delivery and courier services covering approximately 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities in China. Although we have our own motor vehicles and drivers, we currently outsource some of the business to our contractors. We believe outsourcing allows us to maximize our capacity and maintain flexibility while reducing capital expenditures and the costs of keeping drivers during slow seasons. We conduct our logistic operations through two wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Shenzhen Xin Kuai Jie Transportation Co., Ltd (“XKJ”) and Shenzhen Hua Peng Fa Logistic Co., Ltd (“HPF”), which are located in the Guangdong province, China.

Our epidemic prevention supplies business consists of manufacturing and distribution of epidemic prevention products and reselling of epidemic prevention supplies purchased from third parties in both domestic and overseas markets. We conduct our manufacturing of the epidemic prevention products in YS. We conduct the trading of epidemic prevention suppliers through Addentax Group Corp. (“ATXG”) and Shenzhen Qianhai Yingxi Industrial Chain Services Co., Ltd (“YX”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Business Objectives

Garment Manufacturing Business

We believe the strength of our garment manufacturing business segment is mainly due to our consistent emphasis on exceptional quality and timely delivery of our products. The primary business objective for our garment manufacturing business segment is to expand our customer base and improve our profit.

-27-

Logistics Services Business

The business objective and future plan for our logistics service segment is to establish an efficient logistics system and to build a nationwide delivery and courier network in China. As of December 31, 2020, we provide logistics services to over 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities. We expect to develop an additional 20 logistics points in existing serving cities and improve the Company’s profit for the fiscal year ending 2021.

Epidemic Prevention Supplies Business

The primary business objective of our epidemic prevention supplies business segment is to take the advantage of our resource in supply chain from our garment manufacturing business segment to facilitate and maximize the production, distribution and resale of epidemic prevention supplies, in order to increase our revenue and improve our net profit.

Seasonality of Business

Our business is affected by seasonal trends, with higher levels of garment sales in our second and third quarters and higher logistics service revenue in our third and fourth quarters. These trends primarily result from the timing of seasonal garment manufacturing shipments and holiday periods in the logistic segment.

Credit period

Garment Manufacturing Business

For our new customers, we generally require orders placed to be backed by advances or deposits. For our long-term and established customers with good payment track records, we generally provide payment terms between 30 to 180 days following their acknowledgement of receipt of goods.

Logistics Services Business

For our logistics service, we generally receive payments from the customers between 30 to 90 days following the date of the registration of our receipt of packages.

Epidemic Prevention Supplies Business

For our epidemic prevention supplies business, we generally receive payment from the customers within 30 days following the delivery of finished goods. We would also give our long-term customers with a 12 months long credit term policy to maintain a good business relationship.

Markets

Currently, our market focuses on small and medium-sized enterprises in China who have business expansion plans.

Economic Uncertainty

Our business is dependent on consumer demand for our products and services. We believe that the significant uncertainty in the economy in China has increased our clients’ sensitivity to the cost of our products and services. We have experienced continued pricing pressure. If the economic environment becomes weak, the economic conditions could have a negative impact on our sales growth and operating margins, cash position and collection of accounts receivable. Additionally, business credit and liquidity have tightened in China. Some of our suppliers and customers may face credit issues and could experience cash flow problems and other financial hardships. These factors currently have not had an impact on the timeliness of receivable collections from our customers. We cannot predict at this time how this situation will develop and whether accounts receivable may need to be allowed for or written off in the coming quarters.

Despite the various risks and uncertainties associated with the current economy in China, we believe our core strengths will continue to allow us to execute our strategy for long-term sustainable growth in revenue, net income and operating cash flow.

Sufficiency of Cash Flows

Because current cash balances and our projected cash generated from operations are not sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. However, we may be unable to raise additional capital upon terms acceptable to us. The sale of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified critical accounting policies that, as a result of judgments, uncertainties, uniqueness and complexities of the underlying accounting standards and operation involved could result in material changes to our financial position or results of operations under different conditions or using different assumptions.

Estimates and Assumptions

We regularly evaluate the accounting estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated through sale of goods and delivery services. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount:

(i)identification of the promised goods and services in the contract;
(ii)determination of whether the promised goods and services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract;
(iii)measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;
(iv)allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and
(v)recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon delivery.

For all reporting periods, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for all product and service revenue contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, which is an optional exemption that is permitted under the adopted rules.

-29-

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, The Company generally use the incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This standard will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Summary of cash flows

Summary cash flows information for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 is as follow:

  Nine months ended December 31, 
  2020  2019 
  (Unaudited)  (Unaudited) 
  (In U.S. dollars) 
Net cash used in operating activities $(3,782,116) $(1,058,936)
Net cash used in investing activities $(1,094,344) $(94,864)
Net cash provided by financing activities $4,718,213  $1,306,400 

-33-

Net cash used in operating activities consist of net loss of $3,560,206, increased by depreciation and amortization of $83,210, loss on disposal of property and equipment of $1,472, and decrease in change of operating assets and liabilities of $306,592. We will continue to improve our operating cash flow by closely monitoring the timely collection of accounts and other receivables. We generally do not hold any significant inventory for more than ninety days, as we typically manufacture upon customers’ order.

Net cash used in investing activities consist of purchase of plant and equipment of $392,108 and proceeds from disposal of plant and equipment of $2,243, and cash decreased of $704,479 in disposal of two subsidiaries.

Net cash provided by financing activities consist of repayment of related party borrowings of $6,605,044 and we received related party proceeds of $7,697,827; Repayment of bank loan of $196,456 and draw down of new bank loan of $86,886; and Proceeds of $3,735,000 from subscription of ordinary shares offered to a shareholder.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020, we had cash on hand of $356,728, total current assets of $4, 779,450  and current liabilities of $12,661,861. We presently finance our operations primarily from cash flows from borrowings from related parties and third parties. We also raised equity fund of $3,735,000 from the issuance of common stocks in August 2020. We aim to improve our operating cash flows and anticipate that cash flows from our operations and borrowings from related parties and third parties will continue to be our primary source of funds to finance our short-term cash needs. The Company’s financial conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s profit generating operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. The Company expects to finance operations primarily through cash flow from revenue and capital contributions from the CEO. During the year, the CEO has provided financial support for the operations of the Company. In the event that the Company requires additional funding to finance the growth of the Company’s current and expected future operations as well as to achieve our strategic objectives, the CEO has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing.

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long-term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the absence of a long standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven. We may never ever achieve profitable operations. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our services, the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate profits. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, achieve or sustain profitability, or continue as a going concern.

Foreign Currency Translation Risk

Our operations are located in China, which may give rise to significant foreign currency risks from fluctuations and the degree of volatility in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). All of our sales are in RMB. In the past years, RMB continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2020, the market foreign exchange rate had decreased to RMB 6.53 to one U.S. dollar. Our financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. All translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of equity. The foreign currency translation (loss) gain for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $(85,728) and $(50,440), (173,879) and $58,715, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) as of December 31, 2020 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

The increase was mainly attribute to the increase of orders due to the increase in garment manufacturing business as our garment manufacturing business developed a new client but was offset by (i) our holding companies, YX and QYTG, as they did not have consulting service income in the year ended March 31, 2020; and (ii) one of our subsidiaries, HSW, was losing orders as some of its clients had market performance issue due to COVID-19 and they withdrew the orders placed with us, which resulted in the decrease of our revenue.

The Company relied on a few subcontractors, in which the subcontracting fees to our largest subcontractor represented approximately 25.6% and 13.3% of total cost of revenues for our logistics services segment for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in percentages was attributed to the increase usage of subcontracting services as compared to last year. We have not experienced any disputes with our subcontractor and we believe we maintain good relationships with our contract logistics services provider.

Raw material costs for our garment manufacturing business was approximately 72.8 % of our total garment manufacturing business revenue in the year ended March 31, 2020, compared with approximately 75.1% in the year ended March 31, 2019.

Net Loss

We incurred a net loss of $980,617 and $694,329 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.04 and $0.03 for the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash on hand of $531,681, total current assets of $6,001,242 and current liabilities of $10,096,528. The financial condition raised the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We presently finance our operations primarily from cash flows from borrowings from related parties and third parties. We aim to improve our operating cash flows and anticipate that cash flows from our operations and borrowings from related parties and third parties will continue to be our primary source of funds to finance our short-term cash needs.

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long-term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the absence of a long standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven. We may never ever achieve profitable operations. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our services, the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate profits. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, achieve or sustain profitability, or continue as a going concern.

Foreign Currency Translation Risk

Our operations are located in the China, which may give rise to significant foreign currency risks from fluctuations and the degree of volatility in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). All of our sales are in RMB. In the past years, RMB continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar. As of March 31, 2020, the market foreign exchange rate had increased to RMB 7.08 to one U.S. dollar. Our financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. All translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of equity. The foreign currency translation (loss) gain for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $91,443 and $96,716, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) as of March 31, 2020 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

BUSINESS

Overview

Addentax Group Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 28, 2014. We were principally engaged in the business of producing images on multiple surfaces, such as glass, leather, plastic, ceramic, textile, and others, using a three-dimensional sublimation vacuum heat transfer machine (“Original Business”).

On December 28, 2016, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with Yingxi Industrial Chain Group Co., Ltd. (“YICG”), which was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles and principally engaged in garment manufacture, where we agreed to acquire 100% of the equity interest in YICG and to issue five hundred million (500,000,000) restricted common shares of the Company to YICG. The completion of the SPA took place on September 25, 2017.

Following the completion of the SPA, we are now a garment manufacturer and logistics services provider based in the PRC. We are listed on the OTCQB under the symbol of “ATXG”. We no longer pursue our Original Business.

Our garment manufacturing business consists of sales made principally to wholesaler located in China. We have our own manufacturing facilities, with sufficient production capacity and skilled workers on production lines to ensure that we meet our high quality control standards and timely delivery requirement for our customers. We conduct our garment manufacturing operations through five indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, namely Dongguan Heng Sheng Wei Garments Co., Ltd (“HSW”), Shantou Chenghai Dai Tou Garments Co., Ltd (“DT”), Dongguan Yingxi Daying Commercial Co., Ltd (“DY”), Dongguan Yushang Clothing Co., Ltd (“YS”), and Shantou Yi Bai Yi Garments Co., Ltd (“YBY”) which are located in the Guangdong province, China. We manufacture garments for various high-end fashion brands through HSW, HSW and DTDT, which are located in Guangdong, the PRC.

Our logistics services business consists of delivery and courier services covering approximately 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities in China. Although we have our own motor vehicles and drivers, we currently outsource some of the business to our contractors. We believe outsourcing allows us to maximize our capacity and maintain flexibility while reducing capital expenditures and the costs of keeping drivers during slow seasons. We conduct our logistic operations through two wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Shenzhen Xin Kuai Jie Transportation Co., Ltd (“XKJ”) and Shenzhen Hua Peng Fa Logistic Co., Ltd (“HPF”), which are located in the Guangdong province, China.

During the fiscal year 2021, we developed an epidemic prevention supplies business segment, which consists of manufacturing and distribution of epidemic prevention products and reselling of epidemic prevention supplies purchased from third parties in both domestic and overseas markets 

Our epidemic prevention supplies business consists of manufacturing and distribution of epidemic prevention products and trading of epidemic prevention supplies in both domestic and overseas markets. We conduct our manufacturing of the epidemic prevention products in YS. We conduct the trading of epidemic prevention suppliers through Addentax Group Corp. (“ATXG”) and Shenzhen Qianhai Yingxi Industrial Chain Services Co., Ltd (“YX”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Total revenue and net loss for the year ended March 31, 2019 were $10,026,920 and $694,329, respectively. Total revenue and net loss for the year ended March 31, 2020 were $10, 172,379 and $980,617, respectively.

Total revenue and net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 were $21,014,064 and $3,560,206, respectively. Total revenue and net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2019 were $8,182,396 and $947,485, respectively.

Business Objectives

Garment Manufacturing Business

We believe the strength of our garment manufacturing business segment is mainly due to our consistent emphasis on exceptional quality and timely delivery of our products. The primary business objective for our garment manufacturing business segment is to expand our customer base and improve our profit.

Logistics Services Business

The business objective and future plan for our logistics services business segment is to establish an efficient logistics system and to build a nationwide delivery and courier network in China. As of December 31, 2020, we provide logistics services to over 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities. We expect to develop an additional 20 logistics points in existing serving cities and improve the Company’s profit for the fiscal year ending 2021.

Epidemic Prevention Supplies Business

The primary business objective of our epidemic prevention supplies business segment is to take the advantage of our resources in supply chain from our garment manufacturing business segment to facilitate and maximize the production, distribution and resale of epidemic prevention supplies, in order to increase our revenue and improve our net profit.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we have the following competitive strengths:

Cost-effective production. We have adopted a vertical integration production process. We produce garments in our own production facilities and employ our in-house transport teams to deliver garments to our customers. This one-stop service optimizes production efficiency and saves costs by lowering the cost per unit, thereby achieving economies of scale.

Stringent quality control process. As of December 31, 2020, we had 7 employees in the production department that are responsible for conducting our quality control process. We implement a stringent quality control process which monitors various stages of our garment manufacturing business, including sampling checks of semi-finished products and finished products. We prepare inspection reports to address the quality problems and make recommendations to improve the quality of our products. During final product inspection, we pay special attention to the measurements, workmanship, ironing and packaging of our products to help best ensure that the quality of our products comply with the specifications, standards and requirements of our customers.

Strong design capabilities. Our design team works closely with our customers to understand their needs and make recommendations to them. Our design team also conducts market research and attends industry exhibitions to understand the latest market trends. As of December 31, 2020, our design team consisted of five members.

Extensive delivery network. Our logistics services business has nine routes and covers 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities in the PRC.

Business Strategies

Key elements of our business and growth strategies include the following:

Sales of raw materials. We intend to enter into exclusive agreements with textile and garment suppliers in Southeast China to be their exclusive agent and supply their textiles and garments to our customers. To execute this plan, we intend to set up several retailers for the sales of textiles and garments to retail customers and supply the textiles and garments exclusively to various high-end fashion brands.

-40-

Development of our own brands. We intend to develop our own brands that focus on fast fashion with teenagers being our primary target customers are teenagers. We plan to adopt a low cost strategy at the early stage and improve the quality of our products after increasing our market share. We are in the process of registering a trademark for our own brand and intend to start our advertising campaign after the registration of this trademark. We plan to distribute our products in different channels, including our own retailers, co-operative retailers and franchisees.

Develop our logistics services management application. We intend to develop our own mobile application and integrate with to replace our old internal system. We expect this mobile application to improve our routes optimization, courier goods tracking, security  of courier goods, booking time required by our customers, and customer care.

Expand our delivery network. As of December 31, 2020, we provide logistics services to over 79 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities. We expect to develop an additional 20 logistics points in existing serving cities and improve the Company’s profit for the fiscal year ending 2021.

Develop international logistics services and warehousing services. We intend to develop international logistics services for customers located all over the world and international warehousing services.

Seasonality of Business

Our business is affected by seasonal trends, with higher levels of garment sales in our second and third quarters and higher logistics services revenue in our third and fourth quarters. These trends primarily result from the timing of seasonal garment manufacturing shipments and holiday periods in the logistics services business segment.

Collection Policy

Garment Manufacturing Business

For our new customers, we generally require orders placed to be backed by advances or deposits. For our long-term and established customers with good payment track records, we generally provide payment terms between 30 to 180 days following the delivery of finished goods.

Logistics Services business

For our logistics services business, we generally receive payments from the customers between 30 to 90 days following the date of the register receipt of packages.

Epidemic Prevention Supplies Business

For our epidemic prevention supplies business, we generally receive payment from customers within 30 days following the delivery of finished goods. We would also provide our long-term customers with a 12 months long credit term policy to maintain a good business relationship.

Economic Uncertainty

Our business is dependent on consumer demands for our products and services. We believe that the significant uncertainty in the economy in China has increased our clients’ sensitivity to the cost of our products and services. We have experienced continued pricing pressure. If the economic environment becomes weak, the economic conditions could have a negative impact on our sales growth and operating margins, cash position and collection of accounts receivable. Additionally, business credit and liquidity have tightened in China. Some of our suppliers and customers may face credit issues and could experience cash flow problems and other financial hardships. These factors currently have not had an impact on the timeliness of receivable collections from our customers. We cannot predict at this time how this situation will develop and whether accounts receivable may need to be allowed for or written off in the coming quarters.

Despite the various risks and uncertainties associated with the current economy in China, we believe our core strengths will continue to allow us to execute our strategies for long-term sustainable growth in revenue, net income and operating cash flow.

Inventory

Garment manufacturing business. We maintain our raw materials in our storage facilities. We review our inventory levels in order to identify slow-moving materials and broken assortments.

Logistics services business. Since we deliver products as soon as we receive orders from customers, we do not operate distribution centers and hence do not need to carry a significant amount of inventory.

Epidemic prevention supplies business. Since we procured and manufactured epidemic prevention supplies on order basis, we maintain low level of inventories and do not have slow-moving items.

Intellectual Property

We currently do not own any intellectual property rights. We are in the process of registering trademarks and copyright in relation to our garment manufacturing business pending approval from the PRC government.  

Competition

While the PRC is still the world’s largest clothing manufacturer with enormous production capacity, oversupply, increasing labor costs and rising local protectionism have eroded its competitiveness.

The principal competitive factors in the garment manufacturing market include:

brand awareness and focus;
breadth of product offerings; and
quality control.

The principal competitive factors in the logistics market include:

delivery time; and
network coverage.

The principal competitive factors in the epidemic prevention supplies market include:

delivery time;
cost control; and
quality control.

We believe we compete favorably with our competitors on the basis of the above factors as a result of our market position and customer base. By offering one-stop-shop services and affordable price points, we provide services to our customers that are difficult for other competitors to address.

Employees

As of December 31, 2020, we had 133 employees and there was no labor union established by our employees. The following table sets out a breakdown of the number of employees by function as of December 31, 2020:

According to PRC regulations, we must participate in various employee social security plans organized by local governments, including pension, unemployment insurance, childbirth insurance, work-related injury insurance and medical insurance. We are also required under PRC law to contribute to employee benefit plans at specified percentages of the salaries, bonuses and certain allowances of our employees, up to a maximum amount specified by the local government from time to time.

We believe that we maintain a good working relationship with our employees, and to date we have not experienced any significant labor disputes.

Government Regulations

Currently, apart from customary business laws and regulations, the PRC government does not regulate the garment manufacturing business and logistics services business. The PRC government may, however, from time to time institute rules and regulations on such businesses which makes it difficult or impossible for us to operate successfully, if at all, in the PRC. Please see the section on “Risk Factors” for further details.

The PRC government encourages small to medium-sized companies in traditional industries, such as garment manufacturing, to modernize their business models with technological updates in order to sharpen their competitive edge in global markets.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Mr. Hong Zhida holds the positions of chief executive officer and chairman of the board of the Company. The board believes that Mr. Hong Zhida’s services as both chief executive officer and chairman of the board is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Mr. Hong Zhida possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company in its business and is thus best positioned to develop agendas that ensure that the Board’s time and attention are focused on the most critical matters relating to the business of the Company. His combined role enables decisive leadership, ensures clear accountability, and enhances the Company’s ability to communicate its message and strategy clearly and consistently to the Company’s shareholders, employees and customers.

The board has not designated a lead director. Given the limited number of directors comprising the Board, the independent directors call and plan their executive sessions collaboratively and, between meetings of the Board, communicate with management and one another directly. Under these circumstances, the directors believe designating a lead director to take on responsibility for functions in which they all currently participate might detract from rather than enhance performance of their responsibilities as directors.

Management is responsible for assessing and managing risk, subject to oversight by the board of directors. The board oversees our risk management policies and risk appetite, including operational risks and risks relating to our business strategy and transactions. Various committees of the board assist the board in this oversight responsibility in their respective areas of expertise.

Code of Ethics

In September 2018, we adopted a Code of Ethical Business Conduct that applies to, among other persons, members of our board of directors, our Company’s officers including our Chief Executive Officer, employees, consultants and advisors. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

1.honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
2.full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by us;
3.compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
4.the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethical Business Conduct to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Ethical Business Conduct; and
5.accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethical Business Conduct.

Our Code of Code of Ethical Business Conduct requires, among other things, that all of our company’s senior officers commit to timely, accurate and consistent disclosure of information; that they maintain confidential information; and that they act with honesty and integrity.

In addition, our Code of Ethical Business Conduct emphasizes that all employees, and particularly senior officers, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal and state securities laws. Any senior officer, who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to our Company. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our Company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company’s Code of Ethical Business Conduct by another.

Family Relationships

Mr. Hong Zhida, an executive officer of the Company, and Mr. Hong Zhiwang, a director of the Company, are brothers. Apart from this, there are no family relationships between any director or executive officer of the Company.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth, as of May 17, 2021, certain information concerning the beneficial ownership of our common stock by (i) each stockholder known by us to own beneficially five percent or more of our outstanding common stock or series a common stock; (ii) each director; (iii) each named executive officer; and (iv) all of our executive officers and directors as a group, and their percentage ownership and voting power. The column entitled “Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned—Before Offering” is based on a total of 26,693,004 shares of our issued and outstanding common stock.

The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within sixty (60) days through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option, or other right. More than one (1) person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities. The percentage of beneficial ownership by any person as of a particular date is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by such person, which includes the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within sixty (60) days, by the sum of the number of shares outstanding as of such date. Consequently, the denominator used for calculating such percentage may be different for each beneficial owner. Except as otherwise indicated below and under applicable community property laws, we believe that the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

Each share of our common stock is entitled to equal dividends and distributions per share with respect to the common stock when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors.

Sections 78.411 to 78.444 of the Nevada revised statues (the “NRS”) prohibit a Nevada corporation from engaging in a “combination” with an “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested stockholder and place certain restrictions on such combinations even after the expiration of the three-year period. With certain exceptions, an interested stockholder is a person or group that owns 10% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting power (including stock with respect to which the person has voting rights and any rights to acquire stock pursuant to an option, warrant, agreement, arrangement, or understanding or upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights) or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 10% or more of such voting stock at any time within the previous three years.

A Nevada corporation may elect not to be governed by Sections 78.411 to 78.444 by a provision in its Articles of Incorporation. We do not have such a provision in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.411 to 78.444; therefore, these sections apply to us.

Control Shares

Nevada law also seeks to impede “unfriendly” corporate takeovers by providing in Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS that an “acquiring person” shall only obtain voting rights in the “control shares” purchased by such person to the extent approved by the other stockholders at a meeting. With certain exceptions, an acquiring person is one who acquires or offers to acquire a “controlling interest” in the corporation, defined as one-fifth or more of the voting power. Control shares include not only shares acquired or offered to be acquired in connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest, but also all shares acquired by the acquiring person within the preceding 90 days. The statute covers not only the acquiring person but also any persons acting in association with the acquiring person.

A Nevada corporation may elect to opt out of the provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS. We do not have a provision in our Articles of Incorporation pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793; therefore, these sections apply to us.

Removal of Directors

Section 78.335 of the NRS provides that 2/3rds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company are required to remove a Director from office. As such, it may be more difficult for stockholders to remove Directors due to the fact the NRS requires greater than majority approval of the stockholders for such removal.

We have granted to the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 750,000 additional shares from us at the initial public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The option may be exercised in whole or in part, and may be exercised more than once, during the 45-day option period. The Underwriter may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering contemplated by this prospectus.

-54-

We have agreed to reimburse the Underwriter up to a maximum of $150,000 for out-of-pocket accountable expenses. We have paid expense deposits of $75,000 to the Underwriter for its anticipated out-of-pocket expenses; any expense deposits will be returned to us to the extent the Underwriter’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses are not actually incurred in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(5)(A).

We have agreed to pay expenses relating to the offering, including, without limitation: the Company’s legal and accounting fees and disbursements; the costs of preparing, printing, mailing and delivering the Registration Statement, the preliminary and final prospectus contained therein and amendments thereto, post-effective amendments and supplements thereto, the underwriting agreement and related documents (all in such quantities as the Underwriter may reasonably require); preparing and printing stock certificates and warrant certificates; the costs of any “due diligence” meetings; all reasonable and documented fees and expenses for conducting a net road show presentation; all filing fees (including SEC filing fees) and communication expenses relating to the registration of the shares to be sold in the Offering, FINRA filing fees; the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of the Underwriter’s counsel up to an amount of $60,000 (which maximum shall apply solely to such fees and disbursements of counsel and not to other fees and expenses); background checks of the Company’s officers and directors up to a maximum of $15,000; preparation of bound volumes and mementos in such quantities as the Underwriter may reasonably request up to an amount of $2,500; transfer taxes, if any, payable upon the transfer of securities from the Company to the Underwriter; and the fees and expenses of the transfer agent, clearing firm and registrar for the shares; provided that the actual accountable expenses of the Underwriter shall not exceed $150,000.

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding the total underwriting discount and commissions will be approximately $727,303, including a maximum aggregate reimbursement of $150,000 of the Underwriter’s accountable expenses.

Underwriter Warrants

In addition, we have agreed to grant the underwriter non-redeemable warrants to purchase an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock sold in the offering, which warrants will be exercisable six months after the closing of the offering, have a five (5) year term after the effective date of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms part, and a cashless exercise feature. Such warrants are exercisable at a price of 130% of the public offering price of the shares of common stock offered pursuant to this offering. We will register the shares underlying the Underwriter Warrants and will file all necessary undertakings in connection therewith. The Underwriter Warrants may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of the offering, of which this prospectus forms a part (in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110), except that they may be assigned, in whole or in part, to any member participating in the offering and the officers or partners thereof, and that all securities so transferred remain subject to the lock-up restriction for the remainder of the time period. The Underwriter Warrants may be exercised as to all or a lesser number of shares, will provide for cashless exercise and will contain provisions for one demand registration of the sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the Company’s expense, an additional demand registration at the warrant holders’ expense, and unlimited “piggyback” registration rights for a period of five years after the effective date of the registration statement at the Company’s expense. The Underwriter’s Warrants shall further provide for adjustment in the number and price of such warrants (and the shares of Common Stock underlying such warrants) in the event of recapitalization, merger or other structural transaction to prevent dilution. The underwriter will have the option to exercise their warrants at any time, provided that such shares are not transferred during the lock-up period; the 180 day lock period will remain on these underlying shares.

the ability of our management;

In connection with the offering the Underwriter may engage in stabilizing transactions, over-allotment transactions, syndicate covering transactions, penalty bids and passive market making in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the “Exchange Act”).

In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option. The Underwriter may close out any covered short position by either exercising their over-allotment option and/or purchasing shares in the open market.
Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of shares in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the Underwriter will consider, among other things, the price of our common stock available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. If the Underwriter sell more shares than could be covered by the over-allotment option, a naked short position, the position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the Underwriter is concerned that there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.
Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the common stock originally sold by the syndicate member is purchased in a stabilizing or syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions.
In passive market making, market makers in the shares who is the Underwriter or prospective Underwriter may, subject to limitations, make bids for or purchases of our common stock until the time, if any, at which a stabilizing bid is made.

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the shares. As a result the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected on NASDAQ Capital Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the web sites maintained by one or more of the Underwriter, or selling group members, if any, participating in this offeringas amended, and the Underwriter may distribute prospectuses electronically. The Underwriter may agree to allocate a number of shares to selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the Underwriter and selling group members that will make internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.

The Underwriter and their respective affiliates are full-service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The Underwriter has, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for us, for which it received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

In addition, in the ordinary course of the business activities, the Underwriter and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. These investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The Underwriter and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

ADDENTAX GROUP CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

1.ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

ATXG and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) are engaged in the business of garments manufacturing, providing logistic services, property leasing and management service in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) and epidemic prevention supplies manufacturing and distribution both in China and overseas markets.

2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessary be indicative of annual results.

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 29, 2020 (“2020 Form 10-K.”) and Form S-1/A filed with SEC on January 22 2021.

GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

F-6

The Company incurred net loss of $303,581 and $258,212 for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $3,560,206 and $947,485 for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the Company had net current liability of $7,882,411 and $4,095,286, respectively, and a deficit on total equity of $3,065,809 and $3,066,724, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s profit generating operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company expects to finance operations primarily through cash flow from revenue and capital contributions from the CEO. During the year, the CEO has provided financial support for the operations of the Company. In the event that the Company requires additional funding to finance the growth of the Company’s current and expected future operations as well as to achieve our strategic objectives, the CEO has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing.

3.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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 date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

There is no change on the accounting policies from the year ended March 31, 2020.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This standard will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

(a)Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

(b)Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s operating subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the RMB, all assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet date and revenue and expenses are translated at the average yearly exchange rates and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustments to other comprehensive loss, a component of equity.

(c)Concentration Risks

The followings are the percentages of accounts receivable balance of the top five customers over accounts receivable for each segment as of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

Garment manufacturing segment

  December 31, 2020  March 31, 2020 
Customer A  97.2%  85.5%
Customer B  2.7%  Nil%

The high concentration as of March 31, 2020 was mainly due to business development of a large distributor of garments. Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major customers, it was able to sell similar products to other customers.

Logistics services segment

  December 31, 2020  March 31, 2020 
Customer A  24.9%  22.4%
Customer B  13.0%  0.0%
Customer C  11.4%  18.3%
Customer D  10.0%  0.6%
Customer E  7.6%  2.4%

Epidemic prevention supplies segment

No accounts receivables in this segment.

For the three months ended December 31, 2020, one customer from garment segment provided more than 10% of total revenue of the Company, represented 62.8% of total revenue of the Company for the three months. For the nine months ended December 31, 2020, two customers provided more than 10% of our total revenue, with one from garments segment and the other one from epidemic prevention supplies segment, represented 14.0% and 49.6% of total revenue of the Company for the nine months, respectively.

F-8

The high concentration in three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 was mainly due to concentration of distributors in trading of epidemic prevention supplies. Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major customers, it was able to sell similar products to other customers.

The following tables summarized the purchases from five largest suppliers of each of the reportable segment for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

  Three months ended  Nine months ended 
  December 31,  December 31, 
  2020  2019  2020  2019 
Garment manufacturing segment  100.0%  98.7%  97.7%  91.2%
Logistics services segment  79.1%  90.4%  99.7%  69.0%
Property management and subleasing  100.0%  -%  100.0%  -%
Epidemic prevention supplies  100.0%  -%  100.0%  -%

Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major suppliers, other suppliers are available that could provide similar products to the Company.

(d)Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest expenses on our outstanding bank borrowings and the interest income generated by cash invested in cash deposits and liquid investments. As of December 31, 2020, the total outstanding borrowings amounted to $153,172 (RMB1,000,000) with various interest rate from 4.84% to 6.96% p.a. (Note 10)

(e)COVID-19

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak and the measures taken to contain the spread of the pandemic have created a high level of uncertainty to global economic prospects and this has impacted the Company’s operations and its financial performance in the last three quarters of the financial year and subsequent to the financial year end.

As the situation continues to evolve with significant level of uncertainty, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the full financial impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and to mitigate the financial impact, it is conscientiously managing its cost by adopting an operating cost reduction strategy and conserving liquidity by working with major creditors to align repayment obligations with receivable collections.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Addentax Group Corp.:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Addentax Group Corp. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the Company as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Going concern uncertainty

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company incurred recurring losses from operations, has net current liabilities and an accumulated deficit that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

The Company has significant transactions with related parties, which are described in Note 6 to the financial statements. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

1.ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Addentax Group Corp. (“ATXG”) was incorporated in Nevada on October 28, 2014. It is engaged in the business of garments manufacturing, providing logistic services in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) and epidemic prevention supplies manufacturing and distribution both in China and overseas markets.

On December 28, 2016, ATXG acquired 250,000,000 shares of the issued and outstanding stock of Yingxi Industrial Chain Group Co., Ltd. (“Yingxi”). The 250,000,000 shares of Yingxi were acquired from the members of Yingxi in a share exchange transaction in return for the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common stock of ATXG. The 250,000,000 shares of Yingxi constitute 100% of its issued and outstanding stock, and as a result of the transaction, Yingxi became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ATXG. And following the consummation of the reverse acquisition effective on September 25, 2017, and giving effect to the securities exchanged in the offering, the members of Yingxi will beneficially own approximately ninty-nine percent (99%) of the issued and outstanding common stock of ATXG. For accounting purposes, the Company was treated as an acquiree and Yingxi as an acquirer, as a result, the business and financial information contained in this report is that of the acquirer prior to the consummation date and that of the combined entity after that date.

2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION, LIQUIDITY

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S Securities and Exchanges Commission (“SEC”) and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“US GAAP”). All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company incurred net loss of $980,617, $694,329 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had net current liability of $4,095,286 and $2,871,981, respectively, and a deficit on total equity of $3,066,724 and $2,177,550, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s profit generating operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company expects to finance operations primarily through cash flow from revenue and capital contributions from the CEO. During the year, the CEO has provided financial support for the operations of the Company. In the event that the Company requires additional funding to finance the growth of the Company’s current and expected future operations as well as to achieve our strategic objectives, the CEO has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its plans described above or in attracting equity or alternative financing on acceptable terms, or if at all. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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 date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

(b)Fair Value Measurement

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures “, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability, that is, the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. It also emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and that market participant assumptions include assumptions about risk and effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset.

This ASC establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

At March 31, 2020, the Company has no financial assets or liabilities subject to recurring fair value measurements.

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, advances to suppliers, other receivables, accounts payable, other payables, taxes payables and related party receivables or payables. Management estimates that the carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of amounts with related parties is not practicable to estimate due to the related party nature of the underlying transactions.

F-21

(c)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents relate to cash on hand and cash at bank at March 31, 2020 and 2019.

The Renminbi is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. Under the PRC Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and Administration of Settlement, Sales and Payment of Foreign Exchange Regulations, the Company is permitted to exchange Renminbi for foreign currencies through banks that are authorized to conduct foreign exchange business.

(d)

Accounts Receivable

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and generally does not require collateral. The Company’s credit terms are dependent upon the segment, and the customer. The Company assesses the probability of collection from each customer at the outset of the arrangement based on a number of factors, including the customer’s payment history and its current creditworthiness. If in management’s judgment collection is not probable, the Company does not record revenue until the uncertainty is removed.

Management performs ongoing credit evaluations, and the Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses based upon its loss history and its aging analysis. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of credit losses in existing accounts receivable. Management reviews the allowance for doubtful accounts each reporting period based on a detailed analysis of trade receivables. In the analysis, management primarily considers the age of the customer’s receivable, and also considers the creditworthiness of the customer, the economic conditions of the customer’s industry, general economic conditions and trends, and the business relationship and history with its customers, among other factors. If any of these factors change, the Company may also change its original estimates, which could impact the level of the Company’s future allowance for doubtful accounts. If judgments regarding the collectability of receivables were incorrect, adjustments to the allowance may be required, which would reduce profitability.

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts receivable is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. No allowance for doubtful accounts was made for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

(e)Inventories

Manufacturing segment inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When inventories are sold, their carrying amount is charged to expense in the period in which the revenue is recognized. Write-downs for declines in net realizable value or for losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the period the impairment or loss occurs. No write-downs for obsolete finished goods for both years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

F-22

(f)Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the assets’ estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the plant and equipment are as follows:

Production plant5-10 years
Motor vehicles10-15 years
Office equipment5-10 years

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the statement of income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

(g)

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

In previous, the Company early adopted ASU 2017-04. Under the new accounting guidance, the Company should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. In previous financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020, the Company impaired goodwill of $475,003. The Company reperformed the test on The Company has restated the impairment of goodwill as if it was impaired during the year ended March 31, 2018.

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

There was no impairment of long-lived assets as of March 31, 2020 and 2019.

F-23

(h)Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated through sale of goods and delivery services. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount:

(i) identification of the promised goods and services in the contract;

(ii) determination of whether the promised goods and services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract;

(iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;

(iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and

(v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon delivery of the good or service.

For all reporting periods, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for all product and service revenue contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, which is an optional exemption that is permitted under the adopted rules as of March 31, 2020 & 2019.

Cost of revenues for garment manufacturing segment includes the direct raw material cost, direct labor cost, manufacturing overheads including depreciation of production equipment and rent. Cost of revenue for logistics services segment includes gasoline and diesel fuel, toll charges and subcontracting fees. Cost of revenue for epidemic prevention supplies business includes cost of merchandise and cost of direct raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overheads of our own products.

(i)Earnings Per Share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share”, which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Further, if the number of common shares outstanding increases as a result of a stock dividend or stock split or decreases as a result of a reverse stock split, the computations of a basic and diluted earnings per share shall be adjusted retroactively for all periods presented to reflect that change in capital structure. 

The Company had no potentially dilutive ordinary shares as of March 31, 2020 and 2019.

F-24

(j)Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company has a history of tax losses and there is no convincing evidence that sufficient taxable income will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized, therefore, the Company does not recognize any tax benefits for the year ended March 31, 2020 & 2019.

The Company’s Chinese subsidiaries aregoverned by the Income Tax Laws of the PRC. The PRC federal statutory tax rate is 25%. The Company files income tax returns with the relevant government authorities in the PRC. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense recognized during the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the PRC federal statutory rate primarily due to non-deductible expenses, temporary differences and preferential tax treatments.

New U.S. federal tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Reform”), was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The U.S. Tax Reform modified the U.S. Internal Revenue Code by, among other things, reducing the statutory U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017; limiting and/or eliminating many business deductions; migrating the U.S. to a territorial tax system with a one-time transaction tax on a mandatory deemed repatriation of previously deferred foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries; subject to certain limitations, generally eliminating U.S. corporate income tax on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; and providing for new taxes on certain foreign earnings. Taxpayers may elect to pay the one-time transition tax over eight years, or in a single lump-sum payment. The Company measured the current and deferred taxes based on the provisions of the Tax legislation. After the Company’s measurement, no deferred tax benefit nor expense was recorded relating to the Tax Act changes for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

(k)

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, The Company generally use the incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(l)Restatement of prior years’ consolidated financial statements

During the preparation of the Company’s March 31, 2020 and 2019 consolidated financial statements, the prior years’ consolidated financial statements have been restated on following matter:

F-25

Impairment of goodwill

In previous financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020, the Company impaired goodwill of $475,003. The Company reperformed the test on goodwill for impairment as of March 31, 2020 and it was determined that recoverable amount of one of the Company’s reporting units was lower than the carrying amount of the goodwill recorded as of March 31, 2018. Therefore, it was concluded that total carrying amount of goodwill should has been fully impaired as of March 31, 2018. The Company has restated the impairment of goodwill as if it was impaired during the year ended March 31, 2018. The Comprehensive loss for the year ended March 31, 2020 decreased by $475,003. The long live assets as of March 31, 2019 decreased by $475,003. The accumulated  deficits as of March 31, 2019 increased by the same amount. The restatement has no impact on previously reported “cash flows” amount.

(m)Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This standard will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4.RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES 

(a)

Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

(b)Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s operating subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the RMB, all assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet date and revenue and expenses are translated at the average yearly exchange rates and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustments to other comprehensive loss, a component of equity.

(c)Concentration Risks

During the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, approximately 92.7% and 39% of total inventory purchases were from the Company’s five largest suppliers, respectively. Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major suppliers, other suppliers are available that could provide similar products to the Company.

The followings are the percentages of accounts receivable balance of the top five customers over accounts receivable for each segment as at March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Garment manufacturing segment

  2020  2019 
Customer A  85.5%  0%
Customer B  10.2%  28.7%
Customer C  2.0%  0%
Customer D  0.7%  0%
Customer E  0.5%  0%

The high concentration as at March 31, 2020 was mainly due to business development of a large distributor of garments. Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major customers, it was able to sell similar products to other customers.

Logistics services segment

  2020  2019 
Customer A  22.4%  27.4%
Customer B  18.3%  18.8%
Customer C  17.8%  17.6%

As of March 31, 2020, the total outstanding borrowings amounted to $353,114 (RMB 2,500,000) with various interest rate from4.84% to 6.96% p.a. (Note 10)

(e) COVID-19

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak and the measures taken to contain the spread of the pandemic have created a high level of uncertainty to global economic prospects and this has impacted the Company’s operations and its financial performance in the last two months of the financial year and subsequent to the financial year end.

As the situation continues to evolve with significant level of uncertainty, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the full financial impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and to mitigate the financial impact, it is conscientiously managing its cost by adopting an operating cost reduction strategy and conserving liquidity by working with major creditors to align repayment obligations with receivable collections.

(1) Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, securities that are currently convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock, or convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock within 60 days of the date hereof are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to the following table, each stockholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite such stockholder’s name.

SS-6

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock being offered under this prospectus on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which shares of our common stock are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position; and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resales by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions;
to cover short sales made after the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
a combination of any of these methods of sale; and
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The shares may also be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available for a selling stockholder, rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

The selling stockholders may pledge their shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, which commissions as to a particular broker or dealer may be in excess of customary commissions to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If sales of shares offered under this prospectus are made to broker-dealers as principals, we would be required to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. In the post-effective amendment, we would be required to disclose the names of any participating broker-dealers and the compensation arrangements relating to such sales.

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares offered under this prospectus may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. Commissions received by these broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Any broker-dealers or agents that are deemed to be underwriters may not sell shares offered under this prospectus unless and until we set forth the names of the underwriters and the material details of their underwriting arrangements in a supplement to this prospectus or, if required, in a replacement prospectus included in a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

The selling stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares offered under this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under that act, including Regulation M. These provisions may restrict activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholders or any other person. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and other activities with respect to those securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

SS-7

Rule 2710 requires members firms to satisfy the filing requirements of Rule 2710 in connection with the resale, on behalf of selling stockholders, of the securities on a principal or agency basis. NASD Notice to Members 88-101 states that in the event a Selling Stockholder intends to sell any of the shares registered for resale in this prospectus through a member of FINRA participating in a distribution of our securities, such member is responsible for insuring that a timely filing, if required, is first made with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA and disclosing to FINRA the following:

it intends to take possession of the registered securities or to facilitate the transfer of such certificates;
the complete details of how the selling stockholders’ shares are and will be held, including location of the particular accounts;
whether the member firm or any direct or indirect affiliates thereof have entered into, will facilitate or otherwise participate in any type of payment transaction with the selling stockholders, including details regarding any such transactions; and
in the event any of the securities offered by the selling stockholders are sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by any Selling Stockholder in a transaction that directly or indirectly involves a member firm of FINRA or any affiliates thereof, that prior to or at the time of said transaction the member firm will timely file all relevant documents with respect to such transaction(s) with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA for review.

No FINRA member firm may receive compensation in excess of that allowable under FINRA rules, including Rule 2710, in connection with the resale of the securities by the selling shareholders, which total compensation may not exceed 8%.

If any of the shares of common stock offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus are transferred other than pursuant to a sale under this prospectus, then subsequent holders could not use this prospectus until a post-effective amendment or prospectus supplement is filed, naming such holders. We offer no assurance as to whether any of the selling stockholders will sell all or any portion of the shares offered under this prospectus.

We have agreed to pay all fees and expenses we incur incident to the registration of the shares being offered under this prospectus. However, each selling stockholder and purchaser is responsible for paying any discounts, commissions and similar selling expenses they incur.

We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify one another against certain losses, damages and liabilities arising in connection with this prospectus, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

We are a Nevada corporation and generally governed by the Nevada Private Corporations Code, Title 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS.

 

Section 78.138 of the NRS provides that, unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, a director or officer will not be individually liable unless it is proven that (i) the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law. Our articles of incorporation provide the personal liability of our directors is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the NRS.

 

Section 78.7502 of the NRS permits a company to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, if the officer or director (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138, or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, if a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the officer or director was unlawful. Section 78.7502 of the NRS requires a corporation to indemnify a director or officer that has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action or suit. Section 78.7502 of the NRS precludes indemnification by the corporation if the officer or director has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court determines that in view of all the circumstances, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses and requires a corporation to indemnify its officers and directors if they have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any claim, issue, or matter resulting from their service as a director or officer.

 

Section 78.751 of the NRS permits a Nevada company to indemnify its officers and directors against expenses incurred by them in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding as they are incurred and in advance of final disposition thereof, upon determination by the stockholders, the disinterested board members, or by independent legal counsel. If so provided in the corporation’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other agreement, Section 78.751 of the NRS requires a corporation to advance expenses as incurred upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by the company. Section 78.751 of the NRS further permits the company to grant its directors and officers additional rights of indemnification under its articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other agreement.

 

II-1

 

Section 78.752 of the NRS provides that a Nevada company may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the company has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.

 

Neither our Bylaws nor our Articles of Incorporation include any specific indemnification provisions for our officers or directors against liability under the Securities Act. Additionally, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

 

(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) Include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date

 

(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
