Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
ORGANIZATION, PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS | 1. ORGANIZATION, PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS Taoping Inc. (f/k/a China Information Technology, Inc.), together with its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “TAOP”), is a blockchain technology and smart cloud services provider. The Company provides cloud-based display terminal and service of digital advertising distribution network and new media resource sharing platform in the Out-of-Home advertising market in China. It’s integrated end-to-end digital advertising solutions enables customers to distribute and manage ads on the ads display terminals. With multiple cloud data centers deployed, the Company also provides computing power and creates value for the encrypted digital currency industry. In May 2018, we changed our corporate name from “China Information Technology Inc.” to “Taoping Inc.”, to reflect our current business operations in the new media and IoT industries. In 2021, Information Security Tech. International Co. Ltd. (“IST HK”), one of the Company’s Hong Kong subsidiaries, changed its corporate name to Taoping Group (China) Ltd. to reflect the Company’s current corporate structure to be in line with the new business strategies. As listed in the table below, these services are provided through the Company’s operating subsidiaries, primarily in Hong Kong, mainland China and Kazakhstan. On June 9, 2021, the Company consummated an acquisition of 100% 26.9% 51% In 2021, the Company launched blockchain related new business in cryptocurrency mining operations and newly established subsidiaries in Hong Kong to supplement its diminished Traditional Information Technology (TIT) business segment as a part of new business transformation. In September 2021, the Company and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Information Security Technology (China) Co., Ltd. (“IST”) entered into an equity transfer agreement with Mr. Jianghuai Lin, the sole shareholder of iASPEC Technology Group Co., Ltd. (“iASPEC”). Upon closing of the equity transfer, the Company’s variable interest entity structure was dissolved and iASPEC became a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. In September 2021, the Company also strategically relocated its global corporate headquarters to Hong Kong to better implement cryptocurrency mining operations and blockchain related new businesses and streamline its international business development, client communication, and service delivery. The office located in Shenzhen, China becomes the TAOP’s regional headquarters in Mainland China. As a result of the Company’s business transformation and its exit from the TIT business, the Company disposed of 100% 1.1 Upon the disposition, iASPEC, excluding its subsidiaries, was no longer part of TAOP. As such, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 only included the financial results of iASPEC for the period from January 1 through June 7, 2022. In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries, Alpha Digital Group Ltd., Taoping Digital Tech. (Dongguan) Co., Ltd., Wuhu Taoping Education Technology Co., Ltd., and Shenzhen Taoping Education Technology Co., Ltd., were dissolved on January 28, May 17, May 31 and June 14, 2022, respectively, as a result of the business realignment of the Company.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Dissolution of the Variable Interest Entity Structure iASPEC was a VIE of the Company. To comply with PRC laws and regulations that restrict foreign ownership of companies that provide public security information technology and Geographic Information Systems software operating services to certain government and other customers, the Company used to operate the restricted aspect of its business through iASPEC. In September 2021, we dissolved the variable interest entity structure by exercising the purchase option under certain Option Agreement among IST, iASPEC and its shareholders, to purchase all of the equity interests in iASPEC at an aggregate exercise price of $ 1,800,000 612,245 1,800,000 Upon the closing of the equity transfer, the Company’s variable interest entity structure was dissolved and iASPEC became a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. The amended and restated MSA was automatically terminated. Going Concern and Management’s Plans Although the COVID-19 pandemic has largely been contained in China, regional outbreaks of infections persist in various localities. The negative impact from the pandemic to macro economy and the out-of-home advertising business continued in the first half of 2022. However, our revenue achieved 64.0 2.0 14.5 5.1 16.3 5.3 6.3 204.1 202.1 In June 2021, the Company completed an acquisition of 100% 5.5 2.7 3.2 1.1 2.2 If the Company’s execution of business strategies is not successful in addressing its current financial concerns, additional capital raise from issuing equity security or debt instrument or additional loan facility may occur to support required cash flows. However, the Company can make no assurances that financing will be available for the amounts we need, or on terms commercially acceptable to us, if at all. If one or all of these events do not occur or subsequent capital raise was insufficient to bridge financial and liquidity shortfall, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. To overcome the going concern issue, the Company will actively seek opportunities to achieve revenue growth through strategic acquisitions on digital advertising, new revenue streams development, and significant expansion of computing power for cryptocurrency mining operations. In addition to cash generating from business, the Company has secured at least $ 8 TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of its operations and cash flows. Operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on May 2, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s significant estimates include its accounts receivable, assessment of credit losses, fair value of stock options and warrants, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, useful lives of property and equipment, the recoverability of long-lived assets, revenue recognition, valuation of prepayments, goodwill, and other intangible assets, inventories, cryptocurrencies, purchase price allocation of business combination, right-of-use assets, and lease liabilities. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ from those estimates. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (c) Economic, Pandemic, Political, and Currency Exchange Risks All the Company’s revenue-generating operations are conducted in Hong Kong and mainland China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, public health, and legal environments 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 that are not typically pertaining to the companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, public health concerns with persistent outbreaks of COVID-19 infections in various regional localities, and legal environments, geopolitical influences, and foreign currency exchange, notably in recent events, where the government’s sudden interventions or modifications of the laws and regulations currently in effective could negatively impact the Company’s operations and financial results. In September 2021, ten Chinese regulatory authorities collectively promulgated a guidance to further control and monitor cryptocurrency related trading, exchanges, transaction, banking and financial service, initial coin offering, and other intermediary and derivatives transactions, which are considered illegal in accordance with effectuated laws and regulations and may be subject to penalty criminally. The new guidance also bars foreign cryptocurrency trading platforms and related businesses to provide services to China domestic individuals and business entities, and expands the application of laws and regulations to Chinese employees or contractors of foreign operatives that provide related services to individuals or business entities domiciled in China. The legality of cryptocurrency mining activity may be subject to challenge by Chinese authorities. As a result, the Company has relocated its global headquarters to Hong Kong where cryptocurrency mining, trading, exchange, transaction, and related business activities are lawful. The functional currency of the Company is primarily Chinese Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and yet, because of fluctuating exchange rates, record higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of RMB. RMB converted to U.S. dollars on the relevant dates. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environment without notice. (d) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased and cash deposits with financial institutions with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no The Company maintains its cash accounts at credit worthy financial institutions and closely monitors the movements of its cash positions. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, approximately $ 0.8 4.5 (e) Accounts Receivable, Accounts Receivable – related parties, and Concentration of Risk Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at carrying amount less an allowance for credit loss, if any. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments based on contractual terms. The Company reviews the collectability of its receivables on a regular and ongoing basis according to historical trend, and estimates its provision for expected credit losses on receivables aging analysis. The Company estimates allowance for credit losses for the anticipation of future economic condition and credit risk indicators of customers, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its customers’ businesses. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers amounts previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses. The balance of allowance for credit losses for the six-month ended June 30, 2022 has decreased approximately $ 2.5 TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Accounts receivable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 (Unaudited) Accounts Receivable $ 18,559,539 $ 18,340,348 Allowance for credit losses (10,672,470 ) (11,582,186 ) Accounts Receivable, net $ 7,887,069 $ 6,758,162 Accounts Receivable - related parties $ 15,010,731 $ 16,032,134 Allowance for credit losses - related parties (14,051,456 ) (15,680,662 ) Accounts Receivable - related parties, net $ 959,275 $ 351,472 The normal credit term is ranging from 1 month to 3 months after the customers’ acceptance of high-end data storage servers or software, and completion of advertising and other services, and ranging from 1 month to 6 months after the customers’ acceptance of ads display terminals. However, because of various factors of business cycle, the actual collection of outstanding accounts receivable may be beyond the normal credit terms. In accordance with ASC 210-10-45, the non-current accounts receivable and non-current accounts receivable-related parties represent the amounts that the Company does not reasonably expect to be realized during the normal operating cycle of the Company. The Company uses one-year time period as the basis for the separation of current and non-current assets. The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, totaled approximately $ 24.7 27.3 SCHEDULE OF ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Balance at January 1, 2021 $ 21,217,406 Addition from acquisition of subsidiaries under common control 314,214 Increase in allowance for credit losses 5,134,350 Foreign exchange difference 596,878 Balance at December 31, 2021 $ 27,262,848 Decrease in allowance for credit losses (359,724 ) Decrease for balance recovered due to transfer of a company (794,239 ) Foreign exchange difference (1,384,960 ) Balance at June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) $ 24,723,925 TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (f) Fair Value Accounting Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codifications (ASC) 820-10 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, 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). As required by FASB ASC 820-10, assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820-10 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). (g) Inventories, net Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (weighted average basis) and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the expected selling price in the ordinary course of business minus any costs of completion, disposal, and transportation to make the sale. The Company performs an analysis of slow-moving or obsolete inventory periodically and any necessary valuation reserves, which could potentially be significant, are included in the period in which the evaluations are completed. Any inventory impairment results in a new cost basis for accounting purposes. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (h) Property, equipment and software, net Property, equipment and software are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and depreciation. Amortization and depreciation are provided over the assets’ estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of property, equipment and software are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES Office buildings 20 50 years Lease improvement Shorter of lease term or assets lives Electronics equipment, furniture and fixtures 3 5 years Motor vehicles 5 years Purchased software 5 years Media display equipment 5 years Cryptocurrency mining machine 3 years Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss are included in the Company’s results of operations. (i) Goodwill ASC 350-30-50, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, requires the testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The Company tests goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter each year or earlier if an indicator of impairment exists. Under applicable accounting guidance, the goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step test. The first step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired; however, if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step must be performed to measure potential impairment. The second step involves calculating an implied fair value of goodwill for each reporting unit for which the first step indicated possible impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill exceeds the goodwill assigned to the reporting unit, there is no impairment. If the goodwill assigned to a reporting unit exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment charges recorded for the excess. (j) Cryptocurrencies Cryptocurrencies held, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT, are accounted for as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is measured using the quoted price of the cryptocurrency at the time its fair value is being measured. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. Cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The sales of cryptocurrencies are included within investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows and any realized gains or losses from such sales are included in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounts for its gains or losses in accordance with the first in first out (FIFO) method of accounting. (k) Business combination In accordance with ASC 805, the Company applies acquisition method to account for business combination. The acquisition method requires that the fair value of the underlying exchange transaction is used to establish a new accounting basis of the acquired entity upon the acquirer taking control over the acquiree. Furthermore, because of obtaining control the acquirer is responsible and accountable for all of the acquiree’s assets, liabilities and operations, the acquirer recognizes and measures the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair values as of the date control is obtained, which may result in goodwill, when purchase consideration exceeds the net of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, or a bargain purchase gain, when the net of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the purchase consideration, regardless of the percentage ownership in the acquiree or how the acquisition was achieved. (l) Disposal of subsidiary The Company deconsolidates a subsidiary upon the loss of control, the related subsidiary’s assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity are de-recognized. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. Any consideration received is recognized at fair value. Any resultant gain or loss is recognized in the Statement of Operations. (m) Long-term investment The Company’s long-term investment consists of investments accounted for under the equity method and equity investments without readily determinable fair value. Pursuant to ASC 321, equity investments, except for those accounted for under the equity method, those that result in consolidation of the investee and certain other investments, are measured at fair value, and any changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. For equity securities without readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the existing practical expedient in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) to estimate fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) of the investment, the Company elected to measure those investments at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, if any. For equity investments that the Company elects to measure at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes, the Company makes a qualitative assessment considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether investments are impaired at each reporting date. Impairment indicators considered include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee, including factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, a significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technologic environment of the investee and a significant adverse change in the general market condition of either the geographical area or the industry in which the investee operates. If a qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired, the entity has to estimate the investment’s fair value in accordance with the principles of ASC 820. For equity investments without readily determinable fair value, the Company uses Level 3 inputs of fair value accounting in accordance with ASC 820-10 and recognizes impairment loss other than temporary in the statement of operations equal to the difference between its initial investment and its proportional share of the net book value of the investee’s net assets which approximates its fair value. For impairment on equity investments without readily determinable fair value, the Company uses Level 3 inputs of fair value accounting in accordance with ASC 820-10 and recognizes impairment loss in the statement of operations equal to the difference between its initial investment and its proportional share of the net book value of investee’s net assets which approximates its fair value if those are determined to be other than temporary. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (n) Convertible promissory note The Company determines the appropriate accounting treatment of its convertible debts in accordance with the terms in relation to conversion features. After considering the impact of such features, the Company may account for such instrument as a liability in its entirety, or separate the instrument into debt and equity components following the guidance described under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 470 Debt. The debt discount, if any, together with related issuance cost are subsequently amortized as interest expense over the period from the issuance date to the earliest conversion date or stated redemption date. The Company presented the issuance cost of debt in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt. (o) Operating leases - Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities The Company accounts for lease under ASC 842 “Leases”, and also elects practical expedient not to separate non-lease component from lease components in accordance with ASC 842-10-15-37 and instead to account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component. The Company also elects the practical expedient not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company recognized a lease liability and corresponding right-to-use asset based on the present value of minimum lease payments discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company records amortization and interest expense on a straight-line basis based on lease terms and reduces lease liabilities upon making lease payments. (p) Revenue Recognition In accordance with the ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenues net of applicable taxes, when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company generates its revenues primarily from five sources: (1) product sales, (2) software sales, (3) advertising, (4) crypto-currency mining, and (5) other sales. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, generally, upon delivery of the goods and services and receipts of cryptocurrencies from cryptocurrency mining pools. Revenue - Products Product revenues are generated primarily from the sale of Cloud-Application-Terminal based digital ads display terminals with integrated software essential to the functionality of the hardware to our customers (inclusive of related parties) and high-end data storage servers. Although manufacturing of the products has been outsourced to the Company’s Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) suppliers, the Company has acted as the principal of the contract. The Company recognized the product sales at the point of delivery. The Company has indicated that it may from time to time provide future unspecified software upgrades to the hardware products’ essential software, which is expected to be infrequent and, free of charge. Non-software service is mainly the one-time training session provided to the customer to familiarize them with the software operation upon the customer’s initial introduction to the software platform. The costs of providing infrequent software upgrade and training are de minimis. As a result, the Company does not allocate transaction price to software upgrade and customer training. Product sales are classified as “Revenue-Products” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue - Software Customers in the private sector contract the Company to design and develop software products specifically customized for their needs for a fixed price. Software development projects usually include developing software, integrating various isolated software systems into one, and testing the system. The design and build services, together with the integration of the various elements, are generally determined to be essential to the functionality of the delivered software. The contracted price is usually paid in installments based on progression of the project or at the delivery of the software. The Company usually provides non-software services including after-sale support, technical training. The technical training only occurs at the introduction of the software. The software is highly specialized and stable, after-sale support and subsequent upgrade or enhancement are infrequent. The Company has estimated the costs associated with the non-software performance obligations and concludes that these obligations are de minimis to the overall contract. Therefore, the Company does not further allocate transaction price. The Company usually completes the customized software contracts less than 12 months and recognizes the revenue at the point of delivery because the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenues from software development contracts are classified as “Revenue-Software” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Revenue - Advertising The Company generates revenues primarily from providing advertising slots to customers to promote their businesses by broadcasting advertisements on identifiable digital ads display terminals and vehicular ads display terminals in different geographic regions and locations through a cloud- based new media sharing platform. The Company also contracts individuals to promote special events or for various occasions. The Company is only obligated to broadcast the advertisements to the contracted digital ads display terminals, and therefore allocates 100% The Company recognizes the revenues, net of applicable taxes, from advertisement broadcasting contracts with customers over the contracted advertising duration. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue - Cryptocurrency mining The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable under certain circumstances. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency awards the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator, if any.) for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm. Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contract with mining pool operator. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at the contract inception or at the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur (ASC 606-10-32-11), the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm), and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no financing component, nor allocation of transaction price in these transactions. Revenue - Other The Company also reports other revenue which comprises revenue generates from System upgrade and technical support services, platform service fee, and rental income. System upgrade and technical support revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied upon completion of the services. Platform service fee is charged based on number of the display terminals used by the customers or a percentage of advertising revenue generated by the display terminals. Platform service revenue is recognized on a monthly basis over the contract period. The Company follows ASC 842 – Leases that requires lessor to identify the underlying assets and allocate rental income among considerations in lease and non-lease components. The Company owns two units of office space renting out to a third party and TNM under non-cancelable operating lease agreements with lease terms of six years starting from May 1, 2016 and three years starting from July 1, 2019, respectively. The lease agreements have fixed monthly rental payments, and no non-lease component or option for lessees to purchase the underlying assets. The Company collects monthly rental payments from the lessees, and has generated approximately $ 150,000 183,000 After completion of the business acquisition of TNM on June 9, 2021, TNM became a subsidiary of the VIE of the Company. The rental income from TNM has become an intercompany revenue and been eliminated since June 9, 2021. SCHEDULE OF FUTURE MINIMUM PAYMENTS FOR OPERATING LEASES Annual minimum rental income to be received in the next 5 years: 2022 195,527 2023 275,255 2024 91,751 Total 562,533 Contract balances The Company records advances from customers when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $ 9,000 104,000 Practical expedients and exemptions The Company generally expenses sales commissions and other incremental costs of obtaining a contract, if any incurred, because the duration of the service contracts and the amortization periods would have been one year or less. In many cases, the Company is approached by customers for customizing software products for their specific needs without incurring significant selling expenses. The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less. (q) Cost of advertising and cost of cryptocurrencies The cost of advertising mainly comprises of direct costs of generating advertising revenue including lease expense for the wall space, to where the ads display terminal to be installed, installation costs of ads display terminals, depreciation of display termination, labor, and other related expenses. The cost of cryptocurrencies consists primarily of direct costs of earning Bitcoin and Ethereum related to mining operations, including mining platform fees, mining pool fees, mining facility rental fees, electric power costs, other utilities, depreciation of mining machines, labor, insurance, and among other ancillary costs. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (r) Segment reporting Segment information is consistent with how management reviews the businesses, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. Transfers and sales between reportable segments, if any, are recorded at cost. The Company reports financial and operating information in the following three (1) Cloud-based Technology (CBT) segment — It includes the Company’s cloud-based products, high-end data storage servers. and related services sold to private sectors including new media, healthcare, education, and residential community management, and among other industries and applications. In this segment, the Company generates revenues from the sales of hardware and software total solutions with proprietary software and content as well as from designing and developing software products specifically customized for private sector customers’ needs for a fixed price. The Company includes the revenue and cost of revenue of high-end data storage servers in the CBT segment. Advertising services is included in the CBT segment, after the Company consummated the acquisition of TNM. Advertisements are delivered to the ads display terminals and vehicular ads display terminals through the Company’s cloud-based new media sharing platform. Incorporation of advertising services complements the Company’s out-of-home advertising business strategy. (2) Blockchain Technology (BT) segment — The BT segment is the Company’s newly formed business sector. Cryptocurrency mining is the first initiative implemented in the BT segment. (3) Traditional Information Technology (TIT) segment —The TIT segment includes the Company’s project-based technology products and services sold to the public sector. The solutions the Company has sold primarily include Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Digital Public Security Technology (DPST), and Digital Hospital Information Systems (DHIS). In this segment, the Company generates revenues from sales of hardware and system integration services. As a result of the business transformation, the TIT segment was being phased out in 2021. (s) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06 (“ASU 2020-06”) “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP.

BUSINESS ACQUISITION | 3. BUSINESS ACQUISITION On June 9, 2021, the Company and Biznest, a subsidiary of the Company consummated an acquisition of 100% 26.9% 51% Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, as a consideration of the purchase, the Company issued to the shareholders of TNM a total of 1,213,630 5.4 The Company uses Level 3 inputs of fair value accounting for the identifiable assets and liabilities of TNM. The allocation of the purchase consideration is final, which was determined after the completion of a detailed analysis of the fair value for all assets acquired. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for TNM, and the amounts of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed which were based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date: SCHEDULE OF BUSINESS ACQUISITION ASSETS ACQUIRED, AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED Cash $ 7,644 Accounts receivable, net 1,252,601 Advances to suppliers 75,971 Other receivables and other current assets, net 2,345,332 Long-term investments 1,386,191 Property and equipment 1,550,113 Right of use assets 74,812 Accounts payable (339,198 ) Advances from customers (10,943 ) Accrued payroll and benefits (32,840 ) Amount due to related parties (619,571 ) Other payables and accrued expenses (87,373 ) Lease liabilities (153,938 ) Total net assets acquired 5,448,801 Bargain purchase gain (12,345 ) Goodwill - Total purchase price $ 5,436,456 Due to the negative impact from COVID-19 pandemic and slowdown of the out-of-home advertising industry in China, the total consideration paid by the Company was less than the net amount of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of TNM, which resulted in a bargain purchase gain of approximately $ 12,000 The Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 included revenue of $ 1.78 0.55 The Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included revenue of $ 0.56 0.02 On January 13, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire 95.56% 201,552 100% The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for ZJIOT, and the amounts of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed which were based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date: SCHEDULE OF BUSINESS ACQUISITION ASSETS ACQUIRED, AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED Cash $ 4,116 Accounts receivable, net 260,189 Advances to suppliers 4,252 Other receivables, net 2,532 Property, plant and equipment, net 215,689 Accounts payable (250,706 ) Advances from customers (8,046 ) Accrued payroll and benefits (10,633 ) Other payables and accrued expenses (8,923 ) Total net assets acquired 208,470 Goodwill 179,795 Total purchase price $ 388,266 The Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included revenue of $ 0.1 0.07 TAOPING INC.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY | 4. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY Prior to the dissolution of the Company’s VIE structure in September 2021, iASPEC was a variable interest entity of the Company and the Company was the primary beneficiary of iASPEC. iASPEC’s financial results were consolidated into the Company’s financial statements. From September 2021 to June 7, 2022, iASPEC was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

However, the Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current State officials. Based on all known facts, circumstances, and current tax law, the Company has recorded nil unrecognized tax benefits as June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company believes that there are no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible, based on current Chinese tax laws and policies, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next 12 months, individually or in the aggregate, and have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits were not significant for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Since the Company intends to reinvest its earnings to further expand its businesses in the PRC, the PRC subsidiaries do not intend to declare dividends to their parent companies in the foreseeable future. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries are in a cumulative deficit position. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any deferred taxes on the cumulative amount of any undistributed deficit. It is impractical to calculate the tax effect of the deficit at this time. |

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 21. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company may from time to time be subject to legal proceedings, investigations, and claims incidental to conduct of our business. The Company is currently not subject to any legal proceeding, investigations, and claims. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has largely been contained in China, ripple effect of negative impact from the pandemic to the out-of-home advertising business sector continued in the first half of 2021. The China government continues asserted efforts to vaccinate general population, social distancing, mandate mask wearing in the public places and public transportation, prohibit large gatherings, control travels to and from high-risk infectious areas, and track the source of infections. The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations. In addition to various promulgations in the past few years, ten Chinese regulatory authorities recently collectively promulgated a guidance to further control and monitor cryptocurrency related trading, exchanges, transaction, banking and financial service, initial coin offering, and other intermediary and derivatives transactions, which are considered illegal in accordance with effectuated laws and regulations and may be subject to penalty criminally. The new guidance also bars foreign cryptocurrency trading platforms and related businesses to provide services to China domestic individuals and business entities, and expands the application of laws and regulations to Chinese employees or contractors of foreign operatives, that provide related services to individuals or business entities domiciled in China. Although, the legality of cryptocurrency mining activity was not specifically mentioned in the guidance, notably in recent events, where the government’s sudden interventions or modifications of the laws and regulations currently in effective could negatively impact the Company’s operations and financial results. The legality of cryptocurrency mining activity may be subject to challenge by Chinese authorities. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | (a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of its operations and cash flows. Operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on May 2, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | (b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s significant estimates include its accounts receivable, assessment of credit losses, fair value of stock options and warrants, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, useful lives of property and equipment, the recoverability of long-lived assets, revenue recognition, valuation of prepayments, goodwill, and other intangible assets, inventories, cryptocurrencies, purchase price allocation of business combination, right-of-use assets, and lease liabilities. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ from those estimates. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Economic, Pandemic, Political, and Currency Exchange Risks | (c) Economic, Pandemic, Political, and Currency Exchange Risks All the Company’s revenue-generating operations are conducted in Hong Kong and mainland China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, public health, and legal environments 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 that are not typically pertaining to the companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, public health concerns with persistent outbreaks of COVID-19 infections in various regional localities, and legal environments, geopolitical influences, and foreign currency exchange, notably in recent events, where the government’s sudden interventions or modifications of the laws and regulations currently in effective could negatively impact the Company’s operations and financial results. In September 2021, ten Chinese regulatory authorities collectively promulgated a guidance to further control and monitor cryptocurrency related trading, exchanges, transaction, banking and financial service, initial coin offering, and other intermediary and derivatives transactions, which are considered illegal in accordance with effectuated laws and regulations and may be subject to penalty criminally. The new guidance also bars foreign cryptocurrency trading platforms and related businesses to provide services to China domestic individuals and business entities, and expands the application of laws and regulations to Chinese employees or contractors of foreign operatives that provide related services to individuals or business entities domiciled in China. The legality of cryptocurrency mining activity may be subject to challenge by Chinese authorities. As a result, the Company has relocated its global headquarters to Hong Kong where cryptocurrency mining, trading, exchange, transaction, and related business activities are lawful. The functional currency of the Company is primarily Chinese Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and yet, because of fluctuating exchange rates, record higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of RMB. RMB converted to U.S. dollars on the relevant dates. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environment without notice. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | (d) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased and cash deposits with financial institutions with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no The Company maintains its cash accounts at credit worthy financial institutions and closely monitors the movements of its cash positions. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, approximately $ 0.8 4.5 |
Accounts Receivable, Accounts Receivable – related parties, and Concentration of Risk | (e) Accounts Receivable, Accounts Receivable – related parties, and Concentration of Risk Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at carrying amount less an allowance for credit loss, if any. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments based on contractual terms. The Company reviews the collectability of its receivables on a regular and ongoing basis according to historical trend, and estimates its provision for expected credit losses on receivables aging analysis. The Company estimates allowance for credit losses for the anticipation of future economic condition and credit risk indicators of customers, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its customers’ businesses. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers amounts previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses. The balance of allowance for credit losses for the six-month ended June 30, 2022 has decreased approximately $ 2.5 TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Accounts receivable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 (Unaudited) Accounts Receivable $ 18,559,539 $ 18,340,348 Allowance for credit losses (10,672,470 ) (11,582,186 ) Accounts Receivable, net $ 7,887,069 $ 6,758,162 Accounts Receivable - related parties $ 15,010,731 $ 16,032,134 Allowance for credit losses - related parties (14,051,456 ) (15,680,662 ) Accounts Receivable - related parties, net $ 959,275 $ 351,472 The normal credit term is ranging from 1 month to 3 months after the customers’ acceptance of high-end data storage servers or software, and completion of advertising and other services, and ranging from 1 month to 6 months after the customers’ acceptance of ads display terminals. However, because of various factors of business cycle, the actual collection of outstanding accounts receivable may be beyond the normal credit terms. In accordance with ASC 210-10-45, the non-current accounts receivable and non-current accounts receivable-related parties represent the amounts that the Company does not reasonably expect to be realized during the normal operating cycle of the Company. The Company uses one-year time period as the basis for the separation of current and non-current assets. The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, totaled approximately $ 24.7 27.3 SCHEDULE OF ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Balance at January 1, 2021 $ 21,217,406 Addition from acquisition of subsidiaries under common control 314,214 Increase in allowance for credit losses 5,134,350 Foreign exchange difference 596,878 Balance at December 31, 2021 $ 27,262,848 Decrease in allowance for credit losses (359,724 ) Decrease for balance recovered due to transfer of a company (794,239 ) Foreign exchange difference (1,384,960 ) Balance at June 30, 2022 (Unaudited) $ 24,723,925 TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Fair Value Accounting | (f) Fair Value Accounting Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codifications (ASC) 820-10 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, 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). As required by FASB ASC 820-10, assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820-10 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). |
Inventories, net | (g) Inventories, net Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (weighted average basis) and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the expected selling price in the ordinary course of business minus any costs of completion, disposal, and transportation to make the sale. The Company performs an analysis of slow-moving or obsolete inventory periodically and any necessary valuation reserves, which could potentially be significant, are included in the period in which the evaluations are completed. Any inventory impairment results in a new cost basis for accounting purposes. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Property, equipment and software, net | (h) Property, equipment and software, net Property, equipment and software are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and depreciation. Amortization and depreciation are provided over the assets’ estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of property, equipment and software are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES Office buildings 20 50 years Lease improvement Shorter of lease term or assets lives Electronics equipment, furniture and fixtures 3 5 years Motor vehicles 5 years Purchased software 5 years Media display equipment 5 years Cryptocurrency mining machine 3 years Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss are included in the Company’s results of operations. |
Goodwill | (i) Goodwill ASC 350-30-50, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, requires the testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The Company tests goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter each year or earlier if an indicator of impairment exists. Under applicable accounting guidance, the goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step test. The first step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired; however, if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step must be performed to measure potential impairment. The second step involves calculating an implied fair value of goodwill for each reporting unit for which the first step indicated possible impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill exceeds the goodwill assigned to the reporting unit, there is no impairment. If the goodwill assigned to a reporting unit exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment charges recorded for the excess. |
Cryptocurrencies | (j) Cryptocurrencies Cryptocurrencies held, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT, are accounted for as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is measured using the quoted price of the cryptocurrency at the time its fair value is being measured. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. Cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The sales of cryptocurrencies are included within investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows and any realized gains or losses from such sales are included in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounts for its gains or losses in accordance with the first in first out (FIFO) method of accounting. |
Business combination | (k) Business combination In accordance with ASC 805, the Company applies acquisition method to account for business combination. The acquisition method requires that the fair value of the underlying exchange transaction is used to establish a new accounting basis of the acquired entity upon the acquirer taking control over the acquiree. Furthermore, because of obtaining control the acquirer is responsible and accountable for all of the acquiree’s assets, liabilities and operations, the acquirer recognizes and measures the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair values as of the date control is obtained, which may result in goodwill, when purchase consideration exceeds the net of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, or a bargain purchase gain, when the net of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the purchase consideration, regardless of the percentage ownership in the acquiree or how the acquisition was achieved. |
Disposal of subsidiary | (l) Disposal of subsidiary The Company deconsolidates a subsidiary upon the loss of control, the related subsidiary’s assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity are de-recognized. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. Any consideration received is recognized at fair value. Any resultant gain or loss is recognized in the Statement of Operations. |
Long-term investment | (m) Long-term investment The Company’s long-term investment consists of investments accounted for under the equity method and equity investments without readily determinable fair value. Pursuant to ASC 321, equity investments, except for those accounted for under the equity method, those that result in consolidation of the investee and certain other investments, are measured at fair value, and any changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. For equity securities without readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the existing practical expedient in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) to estimate fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) of the investment, the Company elected to measure those investments at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, if any. For equity investments that the Company elects to measure at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes, the Company makes a qualitative assessment considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether investments are impaired at each reporting date. Impairment indicators considered include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee, including factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, a significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technologic environment of the investee and a significant adverse change in the general market condition of either the geographical area or the industry in which the investee operates. If a qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired, the entity has to estimate the investment’s fair value in accordance with the principles of ASC 820. For equity investments without readily determinable fair value, the Company uses Level 3 inputs of fair value accounting in accordance with ASC 820-10 and recognizes impairment loss other than temporary in the statement of operations equal to the difference between its initial investment and its proportional share of the net book value of the investee’s net assets which approximates its fair value. For impairment on equity investments without readily determinable fair value, the Company uses Level 3 inputs of fair value accounting in accordance with ASC 820-10 and recognizes impairment loss in the statement of operations equal to the difference between its initial investment and its proportional share of the net book value of investee’s net assets which approximates its fair value if those are determined to be other than temporary. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Convertible promissory note | (n) Convertible promissory note The Company determines the appropriate accounting treatment of its convertible debts in accordance with the terms in relation to conversion features. After considering the impact of such features, the Company may account for such instrument as a liability in its entirety, or separate the instrument into debt and equity components following the guidance described under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 470 Debt. The debt discount, if any, together with related issuance cost are subsequently amortized as interest expense over the period from the issuance date to the earliest conversion date or stated redemption date. The Company presented the issuance cost of debt in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt. |
Operating leases - Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities | (o) Operating leases - Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities The Company accounts for lease under ASC 842 “Leases”, and also elects practical expedient not to separate non-lease component from lease components in accordance with ASC 842-10-15-37 and instead to account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component. The Company also elects the practical expedient not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company recognized a lease liability and corresponding right-to-use asset based on the present value of minimum lease payments discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company records amortization and interest expense on a straight-line basis based on lease terms and reduces lease liabilities upon making lease payments. |
Revenue Recognition | (p) Revenue Recognition In accordance with the ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenues net of applicable taxes, when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company generates its revenues primarily from five sources: (1) product sales, (2) software sales, (3) advertising, (4) crypto-currency mining, and (5) other sales. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, generally, upon delivery of the goods and services and receipts of cryptocurrencies from cryptocurrency mining pools. Revenue - Products Product revenues are generated primarily from the sale of Cloud-Application-Terminal based digital ads display terminals with integrated software essential to the functionality of the hardware to our customers (inclusive of related parties) and high-end data storage servers. Although manufacturing of the products has been outsourced to the Company’s Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) suppliers, the Company has acted as the principal of the contract. The Company recognized the product sales at the point of delivery. The Company has indicated that it may from time to time provide future unspecified software upgrades to the hardware products’ essential software, which is expected to be infrequent and, free of charge. Non-software service is mainly the one-time training session provided to the customer to familiarize them with the software operation upon the customer’s initial introduction to the software platform. The costs of providing infrequent software upgrade and training are de minimis. As a result, the Company does not allocate transaction price to software upgrade and customer training. Product sales are classified as “Revenue-Products” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue - Software Customers in the private sector contract the Company to design and develop software products specifically customized for their needs for a fixed price. Software development projects usually include developing software, integrating various isolated software systems into one, and testing the system. The design and build services, together with the integration of the various elements, are generally determined to be essential to the functionality of the delivered software. The contracted price is usually paid in installments based on progression of the project or at the delivery of the software. The Company usually provides non-software services including after-sale support, technical training. The technical training only occurs at the introduction of the software. The software is highly specialized and stable, after-sale support and subsequent upgrade or enhancement are infrequent. The Company has estimated the costs associated with the non-software performance obligations and concludes that these obligations are de minimis to the overall contract. Therefore, the Company does not further allocate transaction price. The Company usually completes the customized software contracts less than 12 months and recognizes the revenue at the point of delivery because the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenues from software development contracts are classified as “Revenue-Software” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Revenue - Advertising The Company generates revenues primarily from providing advertising slots to customers to promote their businesses by broadcasting advertisements on identifiable digital ads display terminals and vehicular ads display terminals in different geographic regions and locations through a cloud- based new media sharing platform. The Company also contracts individuals to promote special events or for various occasions. The Company is only obligated to broadcast the advertisements to the contracted digital ads display terminals, and therefore allocates 100% The Company recognizes the revenues, net of applicable taxes, from advertisement broadcasting contracts with customers over the contracted advertising duration. TAOPING INC. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenue - Cryptocurrency mining The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable under certain circumstances. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency awards the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator, if any.) for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm. Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contract with mining pool operator. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at the contract inception or at the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur (ASC 606-10-32-11), the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm), and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no financing component, nor allocation of transaction price in these transactions. Revenue - Other The Company also reports other revenue which comprises revenue generates from System upgrade and technical support services, platform service fee, and rental income. System upgrade and technical support revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied upon completion of the services.

Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 is effective for public business entities fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. The A December 31SU 2021-08 also provides certain practical expedients for acquirers when recognizing and measuring acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts in a business combination.

For public business entities, the ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU 2021-08 should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. An entity that early adopts in an interim period should apply the amendments (1) retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application and (2) prospectively to all business combinations that occur on or after the date of initial application.
