Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | 1. RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Glory Star New Media Group Holdings Limited (“GS Holdings”, or the “Company”) has restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2021 (the “Original Form 20-F”), in order to correct errors resulting from the incorrect application of generally accepted accounting principles relating to previously issued private warrants. On April 12, 2021, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Staff”) issued a public statement entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”)” (the “SEC Staff Statement”). The SEC Staff Statement highlighted potential accounting implications of certain terms that are common in warrants issued in connection with the initial public offerings of SPACs. After considering the SEC Staff Statement, the Company re-evaluated its historical accounting for its warrants and concluded it must amend the accounting treatment of the private warrants issued in connection with the initial public offering of TKK Symphony Acquisition Corporation (“TKK”) and recorded to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the Company’s merger with TKK and the reverse recapitalization that occurred on February 14, 2020. The warrant agreement governing the Company’s private warrants includes a provision that provides for potential changes to the settlement amounts dependent on the characteristics of the holder of the warrant. Upon review of the statement, the Company’s management further evaluated the warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. ASC Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s common stock. Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s common stock if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant with a fixed exercise price and fixed number of underlying shares. Based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s Audit Committee in consultation with management concluded that the Company’s private warrants are not indexed to the Company’s ordinary shares in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15 because the characteristics of the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. Based on the re-evaluation, the Company concluded that the public warrants meet the criteria of equity classification and its historical accounting as equity is appropriate, which should be recorded at their relative fair value at the issuance date and remeasurement is not required. The private warrants should be recorded as warrant liability at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheets, and remeasured on each reporting date with changes recorded in revaluation of warrant liability on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The following tables reflect the impact of the restatement adjustments to the specific line items presented in the Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. The amounts as previously reported were derived from the Company’s Original Form 20-F (in U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data). A summary of the impact of these adjustments to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the related quarterly periods is provided in Note 18, Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited).

ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES | 1A. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES Organization and General GS Holdings was a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 5, 2018 under the former name TKK. GS Holdings was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. The registration statements for TKK's Initial Public Offering ("Initial Public Offering") were declared effective on August 15, 2018. Reverse recapitalization On February 14, 2020, GS Holdings consummated the transaction (the "Business Combination") contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement dated as of September 6, 2019, as amended ("Share Exchange Agreement"), by and among the Company, Glory Star New Media Group Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company ("Glory Star"), Glory Star New Media (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise limited liability company ("WFOE") incorporated in the People's Republic of China ("PRC") and indirectly wholly-owned by Glory Star, Xing Cui Can International Media (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a limited liability company incorporated in the PRC ("Xing Cui Can"), Horgos Glory Star Media Co,. Ltd. ("Horgos"), a limited liability company incorporated in the PRC, each of Glory Star's shareholders (collectively, the "Sellers"), TKK Symphony Sponsor 1, the Company's sponsor (the "Sponsor"), in the capacity as the representative from and after the closing of the Business Combination for GS Holdings' shareholders other than the Sellers, and Bing Zhang, in the capacity as the representative for the Sellers thereunder, pursuant to which GS Holdings acquired 100% of the equity interests of Glory Star from the Sellers. As a result of the Business Combination, Sellers became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse merger, wherein Glory Star is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes and the transaction was treated as a reverse recapitalization of Glory Star. Upon closing of the Business Combination (the "Closing"), the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding securities of Glory Star in exchange for (i) 41,204,025 of the Company's ordinary shares ("Closing Payment Shares"), of which 2,060,201 of the Closing Payment Shares shall be deposited into escrow to secure certain indemnification obligations of the Sellers, plus (ii) earn out payments consisting of up to an additional 5,000,000 of the Company's ordinary shares if the Company meet certain financial performance targets for the 2019 fiscal year and an additional 5,000,000 of the Company's ordinary shares if the Company meet certain financial performance targets for the 2020 fiscal year (the "Earn Out Shares"). In the event that a financial performance target is not met for the 2019 fiscal year and/or 2020 fiscal year but the Company meet certain financial performance targets for the 2019 fiscal year and 2020 fiscal year combined, the Sellers will be entitled to receive any Earn Out Shares that they otherwise did not receive. After giving effect to the Business Combination and the issuance of the Closing Payment Shares described above, there are 49,767,866 of the Company's ordinary shares issued and outstanding. The reverse recapitalization is equivalent to the issuance of securities by Glory Star for the net monetary assets of TKK, accompanied by a recapitalization. Glory Star would credit equity for the fair value of the net assets of TKK. In the subsequent financial statements after the Business Combination, the amounts of assets and liabilities for the period before the reverse recapitalization in financial statements, are presented as Glory Star's and recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts. Reorganization of Glory Star Group On November 30, 2018, Glory Star was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands. On December 18, 2018, Glory Star New Media Group HK Limited ("Glory Star HK") was established as a wholly-owned subsidiary formed in accordance with laws and regulations of Hong Kong.

Each of the VIEs Agreements is described in detail below: Business Cooperation Agreement WFOE entered into separate business cooperation agreements with Xing Cui Can and Horgos, and their respective shareholders in September 2019, pursuant to which (1) each VIE shall not enter into any transaction which may materially affect such VIE's assets, obligations, rights and operations without the written consent of WFOE; (2) each VIE and the VIE shareholders agrees to accept suggestions by WFOE in respect of the employment and dismissal of such VIE's employees, daily operations, dividend distribution and financial management of such VIE; and (3) the VIE and the VIE shareholders shall only appoint individuals designated by WFOE as the director, general manager, chief financial officer and other senior management members. In addition, each of the VIE shareholders agree that (i) unless required by WFOE, will not make any decisions or otherwise request the VIE to distribute any profits, funds, assets or property to the VIE shareholders, (ii) or issue any dividends or other distribution with respect to the shares of the VIE held by the VIE shareholders. The term of each of these business cooperation agreements are perpetual unless terminated by WFOE upon thirty (30) days advance notice, or upon the transfer of all shares of the respective VIEs to WFOE (or its designee). Exclusive Option Agreement WFOE entered into a separate exclusive option agreement with Xing Cui Can and Horgos, and their respective shareholders in September 2019. Pursuant to these exclusive option agreements, the VIE shareholders have granted WFOE (or its designee) an option to acquire all or a portion of each of their equity interests in the VIEs at the price equivalent to the lowest price then permitted under PRC law. If the equity interests are transferred in installments, the purchase price for each installment shall be pro rata to the equity interests transferred. WFOE may, at its sole discretion, at any time exercise the option granted by the VIE shareholders. Moreover, WFOE may transfer such option to any third party. The VIE shareholders may not, among other obligations, change or amend the articles of association and bylaws of the VIE, increase or decrease the registered capital of the VIEs, sell, transfer, mortgage or dispose of their equity interest in any way, or incur, inherit, guarantee or assume any debt except for debts incurred in the ordinary course of business unless otherwise expressly agreed to by WFOE, and enter into any material contracts except in the ordinary course of business unless otherwise expressly agreed to by WFOE. The term of each of these exclusive option agreements is 10 years and will be extended automatically for successive 5-year terms except where WFOE provides prior written notice otherwise. The exclusive option agreements may be terminated by WFOE upon thirty (30) days advance notice, or upon the transfer of all shares of the respective VIEs to WFOE (or its designee). Share Pledge Agreement WFOE entered into a separate share pledge agreement with Xing Cui Can and Horgos, and their respective shareholders in September 2019. Pursuant to these share pledge agreements, the VIE shareholders have pledged all of their equity interests in the VIEs as priority security interest in favor of WFOE to secure the performance of the VIEs and their shareholders' performance of their obligations under, where applicable, (i) Master Exclusive Service Agreement, (ii) Business Cooperation Agreement, and (iii) the Exclusive Option Agreement (collectively the "Principal Agreements"). WFOE is entitled to exercise its right to dispose of the VIE shareholders' pledged interests in the equity of the VIE in the event that either the VIE shareholders or the VIE fails to perform their respective obligations under the Principal Agreements. The equity pledges on the VIE's equity interests are in the process of being registered with the Market Supervision Administration Authority in China. The equity pledge agreements will remain in full force and remain effective until the VIE and the VIE shareholders have satisfied their obligations under the Principal Agreements. Proxy Agreement and Power of Attorney WFOE entered into a separate Proxy Agreement and Power of Attorney with Xing Cui Can and Horgos, and their respective shareholders in September 2019. Pursuant to the proxy agreement and power of attorney, each VIE shareholders irrevocably nominates and appoints WFOE or any natural person designated by WFOE as its attorney-in-fact to exercise all rights of such VIE equity holder has in such VIE, including, but not limited to, (i) execute and deliver any and all written decisions and to sign any minutes of meetings of the board or shareholder of the VIE, (ii) to make shareholder's decision on any matters of the VIE, including without limitations, the sale, transfer, mortgage, pledge or disposal of any or all of the assets of the VIE, (iii) to sell, transfer, pledge or dispose of any or all shares in the VIE, (iv) to nominate, appoint, or remove the directors, supervisors and senior management members of the VIE when necessary, (v) to oversee the business performance of the VIE, (vi) to have full access to the financial information of the VIE, (vii) to file any shareholder lawsuits or to take other legal actions against the VIE's directors or senior management members, (viii) to approve annual budget or declare dividends, (ix) to manage and dispose of the assets of the VIE, (x) to have the full rights to control and manage the VIE's finance, accounting and daily operations, (xi) to approve filing of any documents with the relevant governmental authorities or regulatory bodies, and (xii) any other rights provided by the VIE's charters and/or the relevant laws and regulations on the VIE shareholders. The proxy agreement and power of attorney shall remain in effect during the term of the Exclusive Service Agreement. Confirmation and Guarantee Letter Each of the VIE shareholders signed a confirmation and guarantee letter in September 2019, pursuant to which each VIE equity holder agreed that to fully implement the arrangements set forth in the Principal Agreements, Share Pledge Agreement, and the Proxy Agreement and Power of Attorney, and agrees to not carry out any act which may be contrary to the purpose or intent of such agreements. Master Exclusive Service Agreement WFOE entered into separate exclusive service agreement with Xing Cui Can and Horgos in September 2019, pursuant to which WFOE provides exclusive technology support and services, staff training and consultation services, public relation services, market development, planning and consultation services, human resource management services, licensing of intellectual property, and other services as determined by the parties. In exchange, the VIEs pay service fees to WFOE equal to the pre-tax profits of the VIEs less (i) accumulated losses of the VIEs and their subsidiaries in the previous financial year, (ii) operating costs, expenses, and taxes, and (iii) reasonable operating profit under applicable PRC tax law and practices. During the term of these agreements, WFOE has the right to adjust the amount and time of payment of the service fees at its sole discretion without the consent of the VIEs. WFOE (or its service provider) will own any intellectual property arising from the performance of these agreements. The term of each of these exclusive service agreements are perpetual unless terminated by WFOE upon thirty (30) advance notice, or upon the transfer of all shares of the respective VIEs to WFOE (or its designee) 10 years under the Option Agreement. Risks in relation to the VIE structure Glory Star believes that the contractual arrangements with its VIEs and their respective shareholders are in compliance with PRC laws and regulations and are legally enforceable. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Glory Star's ability to enforce the contractual arrangements. If the legal structure and contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government could: ● revoke the business and operating licenses of the Company's PRC subsidiary and VIEs; ● discontinue or restrict the operations of any related-party transactions between the Company's PRC subsidiary and VIEs; ● limit the Company's business expansion in China by way of entering into contractual arrangements; ● impose fines or other requirements with which the Company's PRC subsidiary and VIEs may not be able to comply; ● require the Company or the Company's PRC subsidiary and VIEs to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or ● restrict or prohibit the Company's use of the proceeds of the additional public offering to finance. Total assets and liabilities presented on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and revenue, expense, net income presented on Consolidated Statements of Operations as well as the cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities presented on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are substantially the financial position, operation and cash flow of the Glory Star's VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs. Glory Star has not provided any financial support to VIEs for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. The following financial statements amounts and balances of the VIEs and VIEs' subsidiaries were included in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019 and 2020 and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020: As of December 31, 2019 2020 Total assets $ 79,710 $ 143,356 Total liabilities $ 17,454 $ 37,095 For the Years Ended 2019 2020 Total revenues $ 65,777 $ 123,763 Net income $ 26,403 $ 37,649 Net cash provided by operating activities $ 26,092 $ 8,731 Net cash used in investing activities $ (15,318 ) $ (4,418 ) Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities $ (6,224 ) $ 5,358 The Company believes that there are no assets in the VIEs that can be used only to settle specific obligations of the VIEs, except for the registered capital of the VIEs and non-distributable statutory reserves. As the VIEs are incorporated as limited liability companies under the PRC Company Law, creditors of the VIEs do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company for any of the liabilities of the VIEs. There are no terms in any arrangements, explicitly or implicitly, requiring the Company or its subsidiaries to provide financial support to the VIEs. However, if the VIEs were ever to need financial support, the Company may, at its option and subject to statutory limits and restrictions, provide financial support to its VIEs through loans. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, its VIEs and its VIEs’ subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. (b) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period and accompanying notes, including allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for unamortized production content, the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and revenue recognition. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Fair value Measurement The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands financial statement disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) on the measurement date in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Management of the Company is responsible for considering the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, prepayment and other current assets, short-term bank loans, accounts payable, advances from customers, accrued liabilities and other payables and other taxes payable based on the short-term maturity of these instruments to approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature. (d) Cash and cash equivalents Cash consists of cash on hand and cash in banks. The Company maintains cash with various financial institutions in China. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, cash balances are $6,919 and $17,731, respectively, which are uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. (e) Short-term investment Short-term investment represents the investment in structural deposits in a financial institution in the PRC which are redeemable at the option of the Company on any working day. The Company accounts for all highly liquid investments with original maturities of greater than three months, but less than 12 months as short-term investments. Interest income are included in earnings. (f) Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable represent the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration (including billed and unbilled amount) when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation. The Company does not have any contract assets since revenue is recognized when control of the promised services is transferred and the payment from customers is not contingent on a future event. The Company maintains allowance for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyses historical bad debt, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to estimate the allowance. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for bad debts only after all collection attempts have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. (g) Unamortized produced content Produced content includes direct production costs, production overhead and acquisition costs and is stated at the lower of unamortized cost or estimated fair value. Produced content also includes cash expenditures made to enter into arrangements with third parties to co-produce certain of its productions. The Company uses the individual-film-forecast-computation method and amortizes the produced content based on the ratio of current period actual revenue (numerator) to estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenue as of the beginning of the fiscal year (denominator) in accordance with ASC 926. Ultimate revenue estimates for the produced content are periodically reviewed and adjustments, if any, will result in prospective changes to amortization rates. When estimates of total revenues and other events or changes in circumstances indicate that a film or television series has a fair value that is less than its unamortized cost, a loss is recognized currently for the amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the film or television series’ fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, $17,199 and $15,970 were amortized to the cost of sales, respectively, and as of December 31, 2019 and 2020, no impairment allowance was recorded. (h) Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income/loss in the year of disposition. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Estimated Useful Life Electric equipment 3 Years Office equipment and furniture 3 - 5 Years Leasehold improvement Shorter of useful life or lease term (i) Intangible asset, net Intangible asset is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and amortized in a method which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are expected to be consumed or otherwise used up. The balance of intangible asset represents software related to CHEERS App, a mobile application that allows its users to access its online store (e-Mall), video content, live streaming, and online games. The software is acquired externally tailored to the Company’s requirements and is amortized straight-line over 7 years in accordance with the way the Company estimates to generate economic benefits from such software. (j) Impairment of long-lived Assets In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charge for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. (k) Leases In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted the Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard to leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company leases its offices, which are classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 842. Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) on the commencement date: (i) lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. At the commencement date, the Company recognizes the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the same term as the underlying lease. The right-of-use asset is recognized initially at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred, consisting mainly of brokerage commissions, less any lease incentives received. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment. No impairment for right-of-use lease assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2020. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. (l) Advances from customers Advances from customers amounted to $610 and $609 at December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively, which represent advance payment received from our customers for goods or services that had not yet been provided. The Company will recognize the advances as revenue when it has transferred control of the goods or services to which the advances relate, and has no obligation under the contract to transfer additional goods or services. (m) Value Added Tax Horgos and its China subsidiaries are subject to VAT for providing services and sales of products. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rates to the invoiced amount of services provided and sales of products (output VAT) less VAT paid on purchases made with the relevant supporting invoices (input VAT). The Company reports revenue net of PRC’s VAT for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations. (n) Revenue Recognition The Company early adopted the new revenue standard Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on January 1, 2017. The core principle of this new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle: ● Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer ● Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract ● Step 3: Determine the transaction price ● Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract ● Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation The Company mainly offers and generates revenue from the copyright licensing of self-produced content, advertising and customized content production and others. Revenue recognition policies are discussed as follows: Copyright revenue The Company self produces or coproduces TV series featuring lifestyle, culture and fashion, and licenses the copyright of the TV series on an episode basis to the customer for broadcast over a period of time. Generally, the Company signs a contract with a customer which requires the Company to deliver a series of episodes that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, the delivery of the series of episodes is defined as the only performance obligation in the contract. For the TV series produced solely by the Company, the Company satisfies its performance obligation over time by measuring the progress toward the delivery of the entire series of episodes which is made available to the licensee for exhibition after the license period has begun. Therefore, the copyright revenue in a contract is recognized over time based on the progress of the number of episodes delivered. The Company also coproduces TV series with other producers and licenses the copyright to third-party video broadcast platforms for broadcast. For TV series produced by Glory Star Group with co-producers, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by the delivery of the entire series of episodes to the customer, and requires the customer to pay consideration based on the number and the unit price of valid subsequent views of the TV series that occur on a broadcast platform. Therefore, the copyright revenue is recognized when the later of the valid subsequent view occurs or the performance obligation relating to the delivery of a number of episodes has been satisfied. Advertising revenue The Company generates revenue from sales of various forms of advertising on its TV series and streaming content by way of 1) advertisement displays, or 2) the integration of promotion activities in TV series and content to be broadcast. Advertising contracts are signed to establish the different contract prices for different advertising scenarios, consistent with the advertising period. The Company enters into advertising contracts directly with the advertisers or the third-party advertising agencies that represent advertisers. (n) Revenue Recognition (cont.) For the contracts that involve the third-party advertising agencies, the Company is principal as the Company is responsible for fulfilling the promise of providing advertising services and has the discretion in establishing the price for the specified advertisement. Under a framework contract, the Company receives separate purchase orders from advertising agencies before the broadcast. Accordingly, each purchase order is identified as a separate performance obligation, containing a bundle of advertisements that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Where collectability is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized monthly over the service period of the purchase order. For contracts signed directly with the advertisers, the Company commits to display a series of advertisements which are substantially the same or similar in content and transfer pattern, and the display of the whole series of advertisements is identified as the single performance obligation under the contract. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by measuring the progress toward the display of the whole series of advertisements in a contract, and advertising revenue is recognized over time based on the number of advertisements displayed. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract types, and terms typically include a requirement for payment within a period from 6 to 9 months. Both direct advertisers and third-party advertising agencies are generally billed at the end of the display period and require the Company to issue VAT invoices in order to make their payments. Customized content production revenue The Company produces customized short streaming videos according to its customers’ requirement, and earns fixed fees based on delivery. Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of short streaming videos. CHEERS E-mall marketplace service revenue The Company through CHEERS E-mall, an online e-commerce platform, enables third-party merchants to sell their products to consumers in China. The Company charges fees for platform services to merchants for sales transactions completed on the Cheer E-Mall including but not limited to products displaying, promotion and transaction settlement services. The Company does not take control of the products provided by the merchants at any point in the time during the transactions and does not have latitude over pricing of the merchandise. Transaction services fee is determined as the difference between the platform sales price and the settlement price with the merchants. CHEERS E-mall marketplace service revenue is recognized at a point of time when the Company’s performance obligation to provide marketplace services to the merchants are determined to have been completed under each sales transaction upon the consumers confirming the receipts of goods. Payments for services are generally received before deliveries. (n) Revenue Recognition (cont.) The Company provides coupons to consumers at our own discretion as incentives to promote CHEERS E-mall marketplace with validity usually around or less than one week, which can only be used in future purchases of eligible merchandise offered on CHEERS E-mall to reduce purchase price that are not specific to any merchant. Consumers are not customers of the Company, therefore incentives offered to consumers are not considered consideration payable to customers. As the consumers are required to make future purchases of the merchants’ merchandise to redeem these coupons, the Company does not accrue any expense for coupons when granted and recognizes the amounts of redeemed coupons as marketing expenses when future purchases are made. Other Revenues Other revenue primarily consists of copyrights trading of purchased and produced TV-series and the sales of products on Taobao platform. For copyright licensing of purchased and produced TV-series, the Company recognize revenue on net basis at a point of time upon the delivery of master tape and authorization of broadcasting right. For sales of product, the company recognize revenue upon the transfer of products according to the fixed price and production amount in sales orders. The following table identifies the disaggregation of our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively: For the years ended 2019 2020 (In U.S. dollars in thousands) Category of Revenue: Advertising revenue $ 48,391 $ 104,664 Customized content production revenue 9,098 10,200 Copyrights revenue 7,369 6,883 CHEERS e-Mall marketplace service revenue 670 1,517 Other revenue 249 499 Total $ 65,777 $ 123,763 Timing of Revenue Recognition: Services transferred over time $ 64,858 $ 121,747 Services transferred at a point in time 670 1,517 Goods transferred at a point in time 249 499 Total $ 65,777 $ 123,763 The Company applied a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Company does not have any significant incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers incurred and/or costs incurred in fulfilling contracts with customers within the scope of ASC Topic 606, that shall be recognized as an asset and amortized to expenses in a pattern that matches the timing of the revenue recognition of the related contract. (o) Cost of revenues Cost of revenues consists primarily of production cost of TV series, short stream video and live streaming, labour cost and related benefits, payments to various channel owners for broadcast, purchase cost of goods and copyrights and costs associated with the operation of the Company’s online game and shopping platform CHERRS App such as bandwidth cost and amortization of intangible assets. (p) Share-based compensation The Company periodically grants restricted ordinary shares to eligible employees and non-employee consultants. The Group accounts for share-based awards issued to employees and non-employee consultants in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses a) immediately at grant date if no vesting conditions are required; or b) using the straight line method over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Share-based compensation in relation to the restricted ordinary shares is measured based on the fair value of its ordinary shares on the date of the grant. The Group recognizes the compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, over a vesting term for service-based restricted shares. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. (q) Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset/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 period 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 provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company does not believe that there was any uncertain tax position at December 31, 2019 and 2020. The Company’s operating subsidiaries in PRC are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB 100,000 ($14,364). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. As of December 31, 2020, the tax years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020 for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities. (r) Non-controlling Interest A non-controlling interest in a subsidiary of the Company represents the portion of the equity (net assets) in the subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and net income and other comprehensive income are attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests. (s) Earnings per Share The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, earn out shares, warrants and stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. There is no anti-dilutive effect for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. (t) Related Parties Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all significant related party transactions in Note 11. (u) Concentration and Credit Risk Substantially all of the Company’s operating activities are transacted into RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions require submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts. The Company maintains certain bank accounts in the PRC, Hong Kong and Cayman, which are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance or other insurance. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, $6,919 and $17,730 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC where there currently is no rule or regulation requiring such financial institutions to maintain insurance to cover bank deposits in the event of bank failure. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of its customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances. (u) Concentration and Credit Risk (cont.) The Company’s sales are made to customers that are located primarily in China. The Company has a concentration of its revenues and receivables with specific customers. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, a major customer accounted for 15% and 14% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively. The top five customers accounted for 79% of net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019, with each customer representing 21%, 18%, 17%, 11% and 12% of the net accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the top five customers accounted for 70% of net accounts receivable, with each customer representing 18%, 14%, 13%, 13% and 12% of the net accounts receivable balance. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, one major supplier accounted for 41% and 37% of accounts payable, respectively. (v) Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of subsidiaries, VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries located in China is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the entities whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income/loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating subsidiaries. The Company does not enter into any material transaction in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. The consolidated balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at December 31, 2019 and 2020 were translated at RMB 6.9618 to $1.00 and at RMB 6.5250 to $1.00, respectively. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 were RMB 6.9081 to $1.00 and RMB 6.9042 to $1.00, respectively. (w) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)”, which significantly changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life, instead of when incurred. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses”, which amends Subtopic 326-20 (created by ASU No.2016-13) to explicitly state that operating lease receivables are not in the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Additionally, in April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No.2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”, in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief”, and in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates”, and ASU No. 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses”, to provide further clarifications on certain aspects of ASU No. 2016-13 and to extend the nonpublic entity effective date of ASU No. 2016-13. The changes (as amended) are effective for the Company for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard, but based on a preliminary assessment, does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
LEASES | 10. LEASES The Company leases offices space under non-cancelable operating leases, with terms ranging from one to five years. The Company considers those renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the determination of the lease term and initial measurement of right of use assets and lease liabilities. Lease expense for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company's leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Supplemental balance sheet information related to operating lease was as follows: December 31, December 31, Right-of-use assets $ 2,027 $ 1,689 Operating lease liabilities - current $ 313 $ 385 Operating lease liabilities - non-current 1,718 1,386 Total operating lease liabilities $ 2,031 $ 1,771 The weighted average remaining lease terms and discount rates for the operating lease were as follows as of December 31, 2020: Remaining lease term and discount rate: Weighted average remaining lease term (years) 4.10 Weighted average discount rate 5.55 % For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, the Company incurred total operating lease expenses of $488 and $533, respectively.

INCOME TAXES | 12. INCOME TAXES Cayman Islands GS Holdings and Glory Star are incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, GS Holdings and Glory Star are not subject to income or capital gains taxes. In addition, dividend payments are not subject to withholdings tax in the Cayman Islands. Hong Kong On March 21, 2018, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed The Inland Revenue (Amendment) (No. 7) Bill 2017 (the “Bill”) which introduces the two-tiered profits tax rates regime. The Bill was signed into law on March 28, 2018 and was gazette on the following day. Under the two-tiered profits tax rates regime, the first 2 million Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) of profits of the qualifying group entity will be taxed at 8.25%, and profits above HKD2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. PRC WFOE, Horgos, Glory Star Beijing, Beijing Leshare, Horgos Glory Prosperity, Shenzhen Leshare, Horgos Glary Wisdom, Beijing Glory Wisdom, Horgos Technology and Xing Cui Can were incorporated in the PRC and are subject to PRC Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) on the taxable income in accordance with the relevant PRC income tax laws. On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress enacted a new enterprise income tax law, which took effect on January 1, 2008. The law applies a uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate to both foreign invested enterprises and domestic enterprises. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, Beijing Glary Wisdom was recognized as small low-profit enterprise and received a preferential income tax rate of 10%. Beijing Leshare was recognized as a high-tech enterprise and received a preferential income tax rate of 15%. Horgos, Horgos Glory Prosperity, Horgos Glary Wisdom are subject to a preferential income tax rate of 0% for a period from 2017 to 2020, and Horgos Technology is eligible to be exempted from income tax from 2020 to 2024, as they are all incorporated in the Horgos Economic District, Xinjiang province. The reconciliations of the statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective income tax rate are as follows: For the Years Ended 2019 2020 (Restated) Net income before provision for income taxes $ 26,594 $ 50,632 PRC statutory tax rate 25 % 25 % Income tax at statutory tax rate 6,649 12,658 Expenses not deductible for tax purpose 350 297 Changes in valuation allowance - 6 Effect of warrant liability revaluation - (4,928 ) Effect of preferential tax rates granted to the PRC entities (a) (6,808 ) (6,360 ) Income tax expense $ 191 $ 1,673 Effective income tax rate 0.72 % 3.30 % (a) The Company’s subsidiary Horgos, Horgos Glory Prosperity and Horgos Technology are subject to a favorable tax rate of 0%. Beijing Leshare was recognized as a high-tech enterprise and received a preferential income tax rate of 15%. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, the tax saving as the result of the favorable tax rate amounted to $6,808 and $6,360, respectively, and per share effect of the favorable tax rate were $0.17 and $0.12. The current PRC EIT Law imposes a 10% withholding income tax for dividends distributed by foreign invested enterprises to their immediate holding companies outside the PRC. A lower withholding tax rate will be applied if there is a tax treaty arrangement between the PRC and the jurisdiction of the foreign holding company. Distributions to holding companies in Hong Kong that satisfy certain requirements specified by the PRC tax authorities, for example, will be subject to a 5% withholding tax rate. As of December 31, 2019, and 2020, the Company had not recorded any withholding tax on the retained earnings of its foreign invested enterprises in the PRC, since the Company intends to reinvest its earnings to further expand its business in mainland China, and its foreign invested enterprises do not intend to declare dividends to their immediate foreign holding companies. The tax effect of temporary difference under ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” that give rise to deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2019 and 2020 was as follows: December 31, December 31, Deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 16 $ 133 Net operating loss carry forwards 517 627 Total deferred tax assets, net $ 533 $ 760 The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company does not believe that there was any uncertain tax position as of December 31, 2019 and 2020. |

The Company agreed to pay EarlyBirdCapital a cash fee equal to $8,750 for such services upon the consummation of a Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders' fees which might become payable). The Company also agreed to pay EarlyBirdCapital a cash fee equal to 1.0% of the transaction value if EarlyBirdCapital located the target business with which the Company consummated a Business Combination.

The 100,000 ordinary shares of the Company to be issued to the designated Holder of Fortune Path Limited under the Consultation Agreement, valued at $3.12, the closing price of the Company's ordinary shares on September 15, 2020. In October 2020, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with Hong Kong Duoku Limited ("Duoku"), pursuant to which the Company will issue 193,986 of ordinary shares at $10.31 per share to Duoku. On November 17, 2020, the Company has completed such issuance of 193,986 ordinary shares at a purchase price of $10.31 per share. At December 31, 2019 and 2020, there were 41,204,025 and 57,886,352 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively. Public Warrants Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, TKK sold 25,000,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, inclusive of 3,000,000 Units sold to the underwriters on August 22, 2018 upon the underwriters' election to partially exercise their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, one warrant ("Public Warrant") and one right ("Public Right"). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share. Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-tenth of one ordinary share at the closing of a Business Combination. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional ordinary shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) the completion of a Business Combination and (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of a Business Combination, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Company may redeem the Public Warrants: ● in whole and not in part; ● at a price of $0.01 per warrant; ● at any time while the Public Warrants are exercisable; ● upon no less than 30 days' prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder; ● if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company's ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and ● if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a "cashless basis," as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a capitalization of shares, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below their exercise price or issuance of potential extension warrants in connection with an extension of the period of time for the Company to complete a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company's assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had 25,000,000 of public warrants outstanding. Rights Each holder of a Public Right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of a Public Right converted all ordinary shares held by him, her or it in connection with a Business Combination or an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to its pre-business combination activities. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 2,504,330 shares in connection with an exchange of Public Rights. Statutory reserve Horgos, Beijing Glory Star, Beijing Leshare, Shenzhen Leshare, Horgos Glary Wisdom, Beijing Glary Wisdom, Glary Prosperity, Horgos Technology and Xing Cui Can operate in the PRC, are required to reserve 10% of their net profit after income tax, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations. Appropriation to the statutory reserve by the Company is based on profit arrived at under PRC accounting standards for business enterprises for each year. The profit arrived at must be set off against any accumulated losses sustained by the Company in prior years, before allocation is made to the statutory reserve. Appropriation to the statutory reserve must be made before distribution of dividends to shareholders. The appropriation is required until the statutory reserve reaches 50% of the registered capital. This statutory reserve is not distributable in the form of cash dividends. Non-controlling interest As of December 31, 2020, the Company's non-controlling interest represented 49% equity interest of Horgos Glary Wisdom and 49% equity interest of Glary Prosperity respectively. |

Private Placement Warrants (Restated) [Abstract] | |
PRIVATE PLACEMENT WARRANTS (Restated) | 15. PRIVATE PLACEMENT WARRANTS (Restated) Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, Symphony Holdings Limited ("Symphony") purchased an aggregate of 11,800,000 Private Placement Warrants at $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $5,900. On August 22, 2018, TKK consummated the sale of an additional 1,200,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $600. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one-half of one ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants (i) are not redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, so long as they are held by the initial purchaser or any of its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. In addition, the Private Placement Warrants may not be transferable, assignable or salable until the consummation of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had 13,000,000 of private placement warrants outstanding. The warrant liability related to such private placement warrants was remeasured to its fair value at each reporting period. The change in fair value was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value of the warrant liability was as follows: Warrant (Restated) Estimated fair value at December 31, 2019 $ - Warrant liability assumed from the Business Combination 20,547 Change in estimated fair value (19,714 ) Estimated fair value at December 31, 2020 $ 833 The fair value of the private warrants was estimated using the binomial option valuation model. The application of the binomial option valuation model requires the use of a number of inputs and significant assumptions including volatility. Significant judgment is required in determining the expected volatility of the common share. Due to the limited history of trading of the Company's common share, the Company determined expected volatility based on a peer group of publicly traded companies. The following reflects the inputs and assumptions used: For the February 14, Stock price $ 2.75 $ 10.00 Exercise price $ 11.50 $ 11.50 Risk-free interest rate 0.28 % 1.42 % Expected term (in years) 4.12 5.00 Expected dividend yield - - Expected volatility 45.5 % 39.2 % |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENT INFORMATION | 15. SEGMENT INFORMATION In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company uses the "management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company's chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company's reportable segments. Management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operation results by the revenue of different services. Based on management's assessment, the Company has determined that it has two operating segments as defined by ASC 280, including Cheers APP internet business and traditional media businesses. Cheers APP Internet Business generates advertising revenue from broadcasting IP short video, live streaming and APP advertising through Cheer APP and service revenue from Cheers E-mall marketplace. Traditional Media Business mainly contributes the advertising revenue from Cheers TV-series, copyright revenue, customized content production revenue and others. The CODM measures the performance of each segment based on metrics of revenues and earnings from operations and uses these results to evaluate the performance of, and to allocate resources to, each of the segments. The Company currently does not allocate assets and share-based compensation for employees to its segments, as the CODM does not use such information to allocate resources to or evaluate the performance of the operating segments. As most of the Company's long-lived assets are located in the PRC and most of the Company's revenues are derived from the PRC, no geographical information is presented. The table below provides a summary of the Company's operating segment results for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. For the Years Ended 2019 2020 Net revenues: Cheers App Internet Business $ 28,301 $ 83,573 Traditional Media Business 37,476 40,190 Total consolidated net revenues $ 65,777 $ 123,763 Operating income: Cheers APP Internet Business $ 11,548 $ 24,343 Traditional Media Business 15,291 11,707 Total segment operating income 26,839 36,050 Unallocated item (1) - (5,381 ) Total consolidated operating income $ 26,839 $ 30,669 (1) The unallocated item for the year ended December 31, 2020 presents the share-based compensation for employees, which is not allocated to segments. |

Summary of Significant Accoun_2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2020 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of presentation | (a) Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, its VIEs and its VIEs' subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. |
Use of estimates | (b) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period and accompanying notes, including allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for unamortized production content, the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and revenue recognition. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Fair value Measurement | (c) Fair value Measurement The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands financial statement disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) on the measurement date in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Management of the Company is responsible for considering the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, prepayment and other current assets, short-term bank loans, accounts payable, advances from customers, accrued liabilities and other payables and other taxes payable based on the short-term maturity of these instruments to approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature. |
Cash and cash equivalents | (d) Cash and cash equivalents Cash consists of cash on hand and cash in banks. The Company maintains cash with various financial institutions in China. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, cash balances are $6,919 and $17,731, respectively, which are uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. |
Short-term investment | (e) Short-term investment Short-term investment represents the investment in structural deposits in a financial institution in the PRC which are redeemable at the option of the Company on any working day. The Company accounts for all highly liquid investments with original maturities of greater than three months, but less than 12 months as short-term investments. Interest income are included in earnings. |
Accounts Receivable, net | (f) Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable represent the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration (including billed and unbilled amount) when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation. The Company does not have any contract assets since revenue is recognized when control of the promised services is transferred and the payment from customers is not contingent on a future event. The Company maintains allowance for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyses historical bad debt, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to estimate the allowance. Past due accounts are generally written off against the allowance for bad debts only after all collection attempts have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. |
Unamortized produced content | (g) Unamortized produced content Produced content includes direct production costs, production overhead and acquisition costs and is stated at the lower of unamortized cost or estimated fair value. Produced content also includes cash expenditures made to enter into arrangements with third parties to co-produce certain of its productions. The Company uses the individual-film-forecast-computation method and amortizes the produced content based on the ratio of current period actual revenue (numerator) to estimated remaining unrecognized ultimate revenue as of the beginning of the fiscal year (denominator) in accordance with ASC 926. Ultimate revenue estimates for the produced content are periodically reviewed and adjustments, if any, will result in prospective changes to amortization rates. When estimates of total revenues and other events or changes in circumstances indicate that a film or television series has a fair value that is less than its unamortized cost, a loss is recognized currently for the amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the film or television series' fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, $17,199 and $15,970 were amortized to the cost of sales, respectively, and as of December 31, 2019 and 2020, no impairment allowance was recorded. |
Property and equipment, net | (h) Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income/loss in the year of disposition. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Estimated Useful Life Electric equipment 3 Years Office equipment and furniture 3 - 5 Years Leasehold improvement Shorter of useful life or lease term (i) Intangible asset, net Intangible asset is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and amortized in a method which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are expected to be consumed or otherwise used up. The balance of intangible asset represents software related to CHEERS App, a mobile application that allows its users to access its online store (e-Mall), video content, live streaming, and online games. The software is acquired externally tailored to the Company's requirements and is amortized straight-line over 7 years in accordance with the way the Company estimates to generate economic benefits from such software. |
Impairment of long-lived Assets | (j) Impairment of long-lived Assets In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charge for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. |
Leases | (k) Leases In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted the Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard to leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company leases its offices, which are classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 842. Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) on the commencement date: (i) lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. At the commencement date, the Company recognizes the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate for the same term as the underlying lease. The right-of-use asset is recognized initially at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred, consisting mainly of brokerage commissions, less any lease incentives received. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment. No impairment for right-of-use lease assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2020. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. |
Advances from customers | (l) Advances from customers Advances from customers amounted to $610 and $609 at December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively, which represent advance payment received from our customers for goods or services that had not yet been provided. The Company will recognize the advances as revenue when it has transferred control of the goods or services to which the advances relate, and has no obligation under the contract to transfer additional goods or services. |
Value Added Tax | (m) Value Added Tax Horgos and its China subsidiaries are subject to VAT for providing services and sales of products. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rates to the invoiced amount of services provided and sales of products (output VAT) less VAT paid on purchases made with the relevant supporting invoices (input VAT). The Company reports revenue net of PRC's VAT for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Revenue Recognition | (n) Revenue Recognition The Company early adopted the new revenue standard Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on January 1, 2017. The core principle of this new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle: ● Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer ● Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract ● Step 3: Determine the transaction price ● Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract ● Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation The Company mainly offers and generates revenue from the copyright licensing of self-produced content, advertising and customized content production and others. Revenue recognition policies are discussed as follows: Copyright revenue The Company self produces or coproduces TV series featuring lifestyle, culture and fashion, and licenses the copyright of the TV series on an episode basis to the customer for broadcast over a period of time. Generally, the Company signs a contract with a customer which requires the Company to deliver a series of episodes that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, the delivery of the series of episodes is defined as the only performance obligation in the contract. For the TV series produced solely by the Company, the Company satisfies its performance obligation over time by measuring the progress toward the delivery of the entire series of episodes which is made available to the licensee for exhibition after the license period has begun. Therefore, the copyright revenue in a contract is recognized over time based on the progress of the number of episodes delivered. The Company also coproduces TV series with other producers and licenses the copyright to third-party video broadcast platforms for broadcast. For TV series produced by Glory Star Group with co-producers, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by the delivery of the entire series of episodes to the customer, and requires the customer to pay consideration based on the number and the unit price of valid subsequent views of the TV series that occur on a broadcast platform. Therefore, the copyright revenue is recognized when the later of the valid subsequent view occurs or the performance obligation relating to the delivery of a number of episodes has been satisfied. Advertising revenue The Company generates revenue from sales of various forms of advertising on its TV series and streaming content by way of 1) advertisement displays, or 2) the integration of promotion activities in TV series and content to be broadcast. Advertising contracts are signed to establish the different contract prices for different advertising scenarios, consistent with the advertising period. The Company enters into advertising contracts directly with the advertisers or the third-party advertising agencies that represent advertisers. For the contracts that involve the third-party advertising agencies, the Company is principal as the Company is responsible for fulfilling the promise of providing advertising services and has the discretion in establishing the price for the specified advertisement. Under a framework contract, the Company receives separate purchase orders from advertising agencies before the broadcast. Accordingly, each purchase order is identified as a separate performance obligation, containing a bundle of advertisements that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Where collectability is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized monthly over the service period of the purchase order. For contracts signed directly with the advertisers, the Company commits to display a series of advertisements which are substantially the same or similar in content and transfer pattern, and the display of the whole series of advertisements is identified as the single performance obligation under the contract. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by measuring the progress toward the display of the whole series of advertisements in a contract, and advertising revenue is recognized over time based on the number of advertisements displayed. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract types, and terms typically include a requirement for payment within a period from 6 to 9 months. Both direct advertisers and third-party advertising agencies are generally billed at the end of the display period and require the Company to issue VAT invoices in order to make their payments. Customized content production revenue The Company produces customized short streaming videos according to its customers' requirement, and earns fixed fees based on delivery. Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of short streaming videos. CHEERS E-mall marketplace service revenue The Company through CHEERS E-mall, an online e-commerce platform, enables third-party merchants to sell their products to consumers in China. The Company charges fees for platform services to merchants for sales transactions completed on the Cheer E-Mall including but not limited to products displaying, promotion and transaction settlement services. The Company does not take control of the products provided by the merchants at any point in the time during the transactions and does not have latitude over pricing of the merchandise. Transaction services fee is determined as the difference between the platform sales price and the settlement price with the merchants. CHEERS E-mall marketplace service revenue is recognized at a point of time when the Company's performance obligation to provide marketplace services to the merchants are determined to have been completed under each sales transaction upon the consumers confirming the receipts of goods. Payments for services are generally received before deliveries. The Company provides coupons to consumers at our own discretion as incentives to promote CHEERS E-mall marketplace with validity usually around or less than one week, which can only be used in future purchases of eligible merchandise offered on CHEERS E-mall to reduce purchase price that are not specific to any merchant. Consumers are not customers of the Company, therefore incentives offered to consumers are not considered consideration payable to customers. As the consumers are required to make future purchases of the merchants' merchandise to redeem these coupons, the Company does not accrue any expense for coupons when granted and recognizes the amounts of redeemed coupons as marketing expenses when future purchases are made. Other Revenues Other revenue primarily consists of copyrights trading of purchased and produced TV-series and the sales of products on Taobao platform. For copyright licensing of purchased and produced TV-series, the Company recognize revenue on net basis at a point of time upon the delivery of master tape and authorization of broadcasting right. For sales of product, the company recognize revenue upon the transfer of products according to the fixed price and production amount in sales orders. The following table identifies the disaggregation of our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively: For the Years Ended 2019 2020 Category of Revenue: Advertising revenue $ 48,391 $ 104,664 Customized content production revenue 9,098 10,200 Copyrights revenue 7,369 6,883 CHEERS e-Mall marketplace service revenue 670 1,517 Other revenue 249 499 Total $ 65,777 $ 123,763 Timing of Revenue Recognition: Services transferred over time $ 64,858 $ 121,747 Services transferred at a point in time 670 1,517 Goods transferred at a point in time 249 499 Total $ 65,777 $ 123,763 The Company applied a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Company does not have any significant incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers incurred and/or costs incurred in fulfilling contracts with customers within the scope of ASC Topic 606, that shall be recognized as an asset and amortized to expenses in a pattern that matches the timing of the revenue recognition of the related contract. |
Cost of revenues | (o) Cost of revenues Cost of revenues consists primarily of production cost of TV series, short stream video and live streaming, labour cost and related benefits, payments to various channel owners for broadcast, purchase cost of goods and copyrights and costs associated with the operation of the Company's online game and shopping platform CHERRS App such as bandwidth cost and amortization of intangible assets. |
Share-based compensation | (p) Share-based compensation The Company periodically grants restricted ordinary shares to eligible employees and non-employee consultants. The Group accounts for share-based awards issued to employees and non-employee consultants in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses a) immediately at grant date if no vesting conditions are required; or b) using the straight line method over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Share-based compensation in relation to the restricted ordinary shares is measured based on the fair value of its ordinary shares on the date of the grant. The Group recognizes the compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, over a vesting term for service-based restricted shares. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. |
Income Taxes | (q) Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset/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 period 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 provisions of ASC 740-10-25, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," prescribe a more-likely-than not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company does not believe that there was any uncertain tax position at December 31, 2019 and 2020. The Company's operating subsidiaries in PRC are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB 100,000 ($14,364). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. As of December 31, 2020, the tax years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020 for the Company's PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities. |
Non-controlling Interest | (r) Non-controlling Interest A non-controlling interest in a subsidiary of the Company represents the portion of the equity (net assets) in the subsidiary not directly or indirectly attributable to the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and net income and other comprehensive income are attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests. |
Earnings per Share | (s) Earnings per Share The Company computes earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share" ("ASC 260"). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, earn out shares, warrants and stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. There is no anti-dilutive effect for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020. |
Related Parties | (t) Related Parties Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all significant related party transactions in Note 11. |
Concentration and Credit Risk | (u) Concentration and Credit Risk Substantially all of the Company's operating activities are transacted into RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People's Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People's Bank of China or other regulatory institutions require submitting a payment application form together with suppliers' invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts. The Company maintains certain bank accounts in the PRC, Hong Kong and Cayman, which are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance or other insurance. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, $6,919 and $17,730 of the Company's cash were on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC where there currently is no rule or regulation requiring such financial institutions to maintain insurance to cover bank deposits in the event of bank failure. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company's assessment of its customers' creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances. The Company's sales are made to customers that are located primarily in China. The Company has a concentration of its revenues and receivables with specific customers. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, a major customer accounted for 15% and 14% of the Company's total revenue, respectively. The top five customers accounted for 79% of net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019, with each customer representing 21%, 18%, 17%, 11% and 12% of the net accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the top five customers accounted for 70% of net accounts receivable, with each customer representing 18%, 14%, 13%, 13% and 12% of the net accounts receivable balance. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, one major supplier accounted for 41% and 37% of accounts payable, respectively. |
Foreign Currency Translation | (v) Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar ("USD"). The functional currency of subsidiaries, VIEs and VIEs' subsidiaries located in China is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"). For the entities whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income/loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company's revenue and expense transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating subsidiaries. The Company does not enter into any material transaction in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. The consolidated balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at December 31, 2019 and 2020 were translated at RMB 6.9618 to $1.00 and at RMB 6.5250 to $1.00, respectively. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 were RMB 6.9081 to $1.00 and RMB 6.9042 to $1.00, respectively. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | (w) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)", which significantly changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life, instead of when incurred. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses", which amends Subtopic 326-20 (created by ASU No.2016-13) to explicitly state that operating lease receivables are not in the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Additionally, in April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No.2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments", in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief", and in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates", and ASU No. 2019-11, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses", to provide further clarifications on certain aspects of ASU No. 2016-13 and to extend the nonpublic entity effective date of ASU No. 2016-13. The changes (as amended) are effective for the Company for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" ("ASU 2019-12"), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard, but based on a preliminary assessment, does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |
