The option price is equal to the capital paid in by Peng Fang subject to any appraisal or restrictions required by applicable PRC laws and regulations.
Under the Exclusive Option Agreement between three shareholders of 39Pu and Shanghai MYT, the three shareholders irrevocably granted Shanghai MYT (or its designee) an exclusive option to purchase, to the extent permitted under PRC law, once or at multiple times, at any time, part or all of their equity interests in 39Pu. The option price is equal to the capital paid in by the three shareholders subject to any appraisal or restrictions required by applicable PRC laws and regulations.
The agreement remains effective for a term of
Share Pledge Agreement
Under the Share Pledge Agreement, Peng Fang and the three shareholders of 39Pu each pledged all of their equity interests in Hunan MYT and 39Pu to Shanghai MYT to guarantee the performance of Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu’s obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, in any event of default, as set forth in the Share Pledge Agreement, including that Hunan MYT or Peng Fang, 39Pu or the three shareholders breach their respective contractual obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Shanghai MYT, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including, but not limited to, the right to dispose of the pledged equity interest in accordance with applicable PRC laws. Shanghai MYT shall have the right to collect any and all dividends declared or generated in connection with the equity interest during the term of pledge.
The Share Pledge Agreement shall be effective until all payments due under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement have been paid by Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. Shanghai MYT shall cancel or terminate the Share Pledge Agreement upon Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu’s full payment of fees payable under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement.

Power of Attorney
Under the Power of Attorney, Peng Fang and the three shareholders of 39Pu each authorized Shanghai MYT to act on her behalf as her exclusive agent and attorney with respect to all rights as shareholder, including but not limited to: (a) attending shareholders’ meetings; (b) exercising all the shareholder’s rights, including voting, that shareholders are entitled to under the laws of China and the Articles of Association of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, including but not limited to the sale or transfer or pledge or disposition of shares in part or in whole; and (c) designating and appointing on behalf of shareholders the legal representative, the executive director, supervisor, the chief executive officer and other senior management members of Hunan MYT and 39Pu.
Although it is not explicitly stipulated in the Power of Attorney, the term of the Power of Attorney shall be the same as the term of that of the Exclusive Option Agreement.
This Power of Attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of execution of this Power of Attorney, so long as Peng Fang is a shareholder of Company.
The VIE Agreements became effective immediately upon their execution.
Material terms of the BTB VIE Agreements among BTB Qingdao, BTB Hunan, BTB Hunan Digital and their shareholders are identical to those of Hunan MYT VIE Agreements.
VIE is an entity that have either a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity or obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity. The variable interest holder, if any, that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. Shanghai MYT is deemed to have a controlling financial interest and be the primary beneficiary of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, because it has both of the following characteristics:
| 1. | power to direct activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and |
| 2. | obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. |
In addition, as all of these VIE agreements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through arbitration in the PRC, they would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could further limit the Company’s ability to enforce these VIE agreements. Furthermore, these contracts may not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts take a view that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event the Company is unable to enforce these VIE agreements, it may not be able to exert effective control over Hunan MYT or 39Pu and its ability to conduct its business may be materially and adversely affected.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had three VIEs. All of the Company’s main current operations are conducted through the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries. Current regulations in China permit VIEs and their subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company only out of their accumulated distributable profits, if any, determined in accordance with their articles of association and PRC accounting standards and regulations. The ability of VIEs and their subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to the Company may be restricted by factors including changes in applicable foreign exchange and other laws and regulations.
The following financial statement balances and amounts only reflect the financial position and financial performances of the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries, which were included in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31 and June 30, 2021:

| (c) | Segment reporting |
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.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company has three operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu and planned blockchain business to be conducted by Hunan BTB. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the three operating business lines are three operating segments as defined by ASC 280.
For the six months ended December 31, 2020, the Company has two operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the two operating business lines are two operating segments as defined by ASC 280.
| (d) | Trade receivables |
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on management’s assessment of potential losses based on the credit history and relationships with the customers. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if bad debt allowance is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.
The Company considered the amounts of receivables in dispute and believes an allowance for these receivables were not necessary as at December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021.
| (e) | Inventories |
Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are stated at the lower of cost and market. Cost of inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and promotional environment. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products purchased. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

| (f) | Revenue recognition |
The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) beginning on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of ASC 606 and therefore there was no material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.
In according with ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
During the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company generated revenues primarily from sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in its tea shop chains by Hunan MYT, and from sales of dark team products by 39Pu.
Sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in retail shop chains by Hunan MYT
Customers place order and pay for tea products, beverage drinks and light meals in the Company’s tea shop chains. Revenues are recognized at the point of delivery to customers. Customers that purchase prepaid cards are issued additional points for free at the time of purchase. Cash received from the sales of prepaid vouchers are recognized as unearned income. Consideration collected for prepaid cards is equally allocated to each point as an element, including the points issued for free, to determine the transaction price for each point. The allocated transaction price are recognized as revenues upon the redemption of the points for purchases.
Sales of dark tea products by 39Pu - The Company identifies a single performance obligation from contracts. The Company recognizes revenues on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods, subject to inventory risks and has the discretion in establishing prices. The transaction fees are fixed. Payments received in advance from customers are recorded as “advance from customers” in the consolidated balance sheets. Advance from customers is recognized as revenue when the Company delivers the courses to its customers. Such advance payment received are non-refundable. In cases where fees are collected after the sales, revenue and accounts receivable are recognized upon delivery of products to the Company.
Disaggregation of revenue - The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by segments, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

| (g) | Investments in equity securities |
The investments for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses of these entities, the amortization of intangible assets recognized upon purchase price allocation and dividend distributions or subsequent investments. All unrecognized inter-company profits and losses have been eliminated under the equity method. When the estimated amount to be realized from the investments falls below its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations when the decline in value is considered other than temporary.
The Company elected to record a majority of equity investments in privately held companies using the measurement alternative at cost, less impairment, with subsequent adjustments for observable price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Equity investments in privately held companies accounted for using the measurement alternative are subject to periodic impairment reviews. The Company’s impairment analysis considers both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant effect on the fair value of these equity securities, including consideration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of the Company’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Its mandatory effective dates are as follows: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; 2. All other public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 3. All other entities (private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and employee benefit plans) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On November 15, 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards (including ASC 326 Financial instrument-credit losses) and amends the effective dates to give implementation relief to certain type of entities: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be Smaller Reporting Companies, or SRC, as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 2. All other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in the Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments effective January 1, 2023, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

| 3. | RISKS |
| (a) | Credit risk |
Assets that potentially subject the Company to
significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit
risk is their carrying amount as at the balance sheet dates. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $
The Company’s operations are carried out in Mainland China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, rates and methods of taxation, and the extraction of mining resources, among other factors.
| (b) | Liquidity risk |
The Company is also exposed to liquidity risk which is risk that it is unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet its commitments and business needs. Liquidity risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. When necessary, the Company will turn to other financial institutions and the owners to obtain short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.
| (c) | Foreign currency risk |
Substantially all of the Company’s operating
activities and the Company’s major assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, except for the cash deposit of approximately $
| (c) | VIE risk |
It is possible that the Hunan MYT VIE Agreements, 39Pu VIE Agreements and BTB VIE Agreements would not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts were to find that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event that the Company were unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, the Company would not be able to exert effective control over the VIE. Consequently, the VIE’s results of operations, assets and liabilities would not be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If such were the case, the Company’s cash flows, financial position, and operating performance would be materially adversely affected. The Company’s contractual arrangements among Shanghai MYT, Hunan MYT and the Hunan MYT Shareholders, among Shanghai MYT, 39Pu and the three shareholders of 39Pu, and among BTB Qingdao, BTB Hunan and all of the shareholders of BTB Hunan are approved and in place. Management believes that such contracts are enforceable, and considers the possibility remote that PRC regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the Company’s operations and contractual relationships would find the contracts to be unenforceable.
The Company’s operations and businesses rely on the operations and businesses of Hunan MYT, 39Pu and BTB Hunan, the VIEs of the Company, each of which holds certain recognized revenue-producing assets including tea beverage related raw materials, lease arrangements, and dark tea products. The VIEs also have an assembled workforce, focused primarily on promotion and marketing, whose costs are expensed as incurred. The Company’s operations and businesses may be adversely impacted if the Company loses the ability to use and enjoy assets held by its VIEs.
| (e) | Other risk |
The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may also be negatively impacted by risks related to natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, health epidemics and other catastrophic incidents, such as the COVID-19 outbreak and spread, which could significantly disrupt the Company’s operations.

No assurances can be given that the future results anticipated by the forward-looking statements will be achieved.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.
A. Operating Results
As of December 31, 2021, we have three operating business lines, including the retail business of providing high-quality tea beverages in our tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, the dark tea distribution business by 39Pu and planned blockchain business to be conducted by Hunan BTB.
Tea Shop Chain Business
As affected by the outbreak of COVID-19, we closed certain tea shops through the date of this report. Currently the Company has three tea shops based in Hunan Province, China, among which two are flagship stores and one is general stores. In addition, we opened our first oversea tea shop in August 2020 in Manhattan, New York City, through our joint venture. The Company sells tea products, beverages and light meals. The tea drinks we are currently offering are developed on various tea bases, among which is our featured Anhua dark tea base. These tea-based beverages include fresh milk tea, fruit tea, milk cap tea, etc. The light meals offered include selections such as salads, sandwiches, pasta, steak, burritos and other healthy options. The pastries we are offering include fresh baked bread, fresh baked cakes, frosting cakes, etc.
Customers place orders and pay for tea products, beverages and light meals in the Company’s tea shop chains. Revenues are recognized at the point of delivery to customers. Customers that purchase prepaid cards are issued additional points for free at the time of purchase.
We have also teamed up with China’s leading online food ordering and delivery platforms—meituan.com (“美团”) and ele.me (“饿了么”)—to allow consumers to order drinks, light meals, and pastries through the Internet from the closest stores. Consumers, however, can order only products that are suitable for delivery, such as bread with long expiration periods, light snacks, and certain tea beverages. Some tea beverages, such as milk foam cap tea, are not offered online due to its unsuitability for delivery. After a customer places an order with these online platforms, our products will be produced in the stores and delivered by professional deliverymen. The production and delivery process is typically completed in forty (40) minutes.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company earned income from the tea shop chain business of $103,395 and $169,656, respectively.
Branding and Marketing Strategy
Our products are currently offered under two brands, Buoyance Manor (“浮力庄园”) and Your Ladyship Tea (“小主的茶”). We plan to offer snacks and accessories, including peanut nougat gift boxes, cookies, coffee mugs, and tea cups under a new brand Meet Honey. We have entered into a series of trademark assignment and license agreements with the owners of these trademarks. For details, please refer to the section of Trademarks, Copyrights, Patents and Domain Names.
Each brand has its own market position. Buoyance Manor mainly focuses on selling coffee drinks and varieties of bread originating from Europe. Your Ladyship Tea mainly focuses on selling tea beverages and light meals. Meet Honey will mainly focus on selling snacks and accessories, including peanut nougat gift boxes, cookies, coffee mugs, and tea cups.
Competition
In almost all markets in which we operate, there are numerous competitors in the specialty tea beverage business. We believe that our customers choose among specialty tea beverage brands primarily on the basis of product quality, service and convenience, as well as price. We face competition from large fast-food restaurants and ready-to-drink tea beverage manufacturers. We also compete with restaurants and other specialty retailers for prime retail locations and qualified personnel to operate both new and existing stores.
As of now, our major competitors in the Hunan province are: Maiji (“麦吉”), Luosennina (“罗森尼娜”), NAYUKI (“奈雪的茶”), and Chayanyuese (“茶颜悦色”).
Dark Tea Distribution Business
In order to diversify the Company’s business and create synergies between our tea shop chains and dark tea distribution, the Company’s indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary, Mingyuntang (Shanghai) Tea Co. Ltd. (“Shanghai MYT”), entered into a series of contractual agreements (the “39Pu VIE Agreements”) with Hunan 39 PU Tea Co., Ltd. (“39Pu”) and certain shareholders of 39Pu (“39Pu Shareholders”), who collectively hold 51% of 39Pu. The 39Pu VIE Agreements are designed to provide Shanghai MYT with the power, rights and obligations equivalent, in all material respects, to those it would possess as the 51% equity holder of 39Pu, including absolute control rights and the rights to the management, operations, assets, property and revenue of 39Pu. The purpose of the 39Pu VIE Agreements is solely to give the Company the exclusive control over 39Pu’s management. Through 39Pu’s VIE structure, the Company was able to consolidate operations of 39Pu, effective as of October 2, 2019, and now operates a separate dark tea distribution business.
39Pu, headquartered in Changsha Province, China, is a high-end tea enterprise integrating tea distribution, product research and development, and tea cultural heritage projects. 39Pu aims to create a comprehensive tea brand, selling premium tea (primarily Anhua dark tea) and facilitating the dissemination of tea culture. Currently, 39Pu engages in the sale of dark tea products through various sales channels, including sales to wholesale customers, sales through reputable online marketplaces in China such as Tiktok, and sales through the Company’s retail stores.
39Pu recognizes revenues when products are delivered to customers on a gross basis, as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions. For the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company earned income from the dark tea distribution of $1,201,394 and $3,704,424, respectively.
Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Business
Our blockchain technology and cryptocurrency mining business is currently conducted through Bit Brother New York Inc. As for Hunan BTB, its operations shall consist of conducting research and development our metaverse technology and application solution to build various application scenarios or platforms in the metaverse, targeting both individual and institutional users.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not generated any income from the blockchain technology and cryptocurrency mining business which launched in May 2021.

We independently developed an environment-friendly and energy-saving integrated IDC mobile data center for the global market. Its system is modular integrated with water and power grids and the new water-cooling system included combines the principles of water evaporation, natural water temperature, and air circulation to form an air conditioning cycle with a natural cooling. The system achieves green energy saving, noise reduction, cooling, dust reduction, oxygen enhancement, etc. At the same time, the data center also achieves the maximum utilization of space. We expect it be customized according to each customer’s requirements and needs and is suitable for a variety of brand and model mining machines.
Competition
Cryptocurrency mining, hosting and security is in a highly competitive environment. Our competitors include companies that may have a longer history, larger market share, greater brand recognition, greater financial resources in research or other competitive advantages. We anticipate that competition will increase as cryptocurrencies gain greater acceptance and more players join the market of cryptocurrency mining and mining farm operations.
Strong competition in the market may require us to increase our marketing expenses and sales expenses, if any, or otherwise invest greater resources to gain market shares and expand our mining capacities as needed to adequately compete. Such efforts may negatively impact our profitability. If we are unable to effectively meet our business plans in the competitive landscape, our business, financial conditions and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Trademarks, Copyrights, Patents and Domain Names
We regard our future trademarks, domain names, know-how, proprietary technologies and similar intellectual property as critical to our success, and we will rely on trademark and trade secret law and confidentiality and invention assignment with our employees and others to protect our proprietary rights.
Key Factors that Affect Operating Results
We just launched the specialty tea product distribution and retail business in November 2018 and the dark tea distribution business in October 2019. We believe our future success depends on our ability to significantly increase revenues as well as maintain profitability from our operations. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects. You should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and challenges encountered by a company with a limited operating history in an emerging and rapidly evolving industry. These risks and challenges include, among other things,
| ● | Our ability to attract and engage customers |
| ● | Our ability to increase product offerings |
| ● | Expansion of our online distribution |
| ● | Effective selling prices of our products |
| ● | Efficient store operations |
In addition, we planned to launch bitcoin business in the year ended June 30, 2022. These risks and challenges include, among other things,
| ● | Our ability to execute our planned blockchain and cryptocurrency mining business plan |
| ● | Our ability to develop our cryptocurrency mining capacity |
| ● | Shortages or price changes in mining machines |
| ● | Intense industry competition |
Our business requires a significant amount of capital, in large part because we plan to continue to open stores and expand our business through joint venture stores and to additional markets where we currently do not have operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate these judgments and estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.
The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgments and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors that should be considered when reviewing our financial statements. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. You should read the following description of critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and other disclosures included in this Form 6-K.
| ● | Basis of presentation |
The consolidated financial statements are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
| ● | Principal of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries, and consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
All transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation.
| ● | Revenue recognition |
The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) beginning on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of ASC 606 and therefore there was no material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.
In according with ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
During the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company generated revenues primarily from sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in its tea shop chains by Hunan MYT, and from sales of dark tea products by 39Pu.

Sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in retail shop chains by Hunan MYT
Customers place order and pay for tea products, beverage drinks and light meals in the Company’s tea shop chains. Revenues are recognized at the point of delivery to customers. Customers that purchase prepaid cards are issued additional points for free at the time of purchase. Cash received from the sales of prepaid vouchers are recognized as unearned income. Consideration collected for prepaid cards is equally allocated to each point as an element, including the points issued for free, to determine the transaction price for each point. The allocated transaction price are recognized as revenues upon the redemption of the points for purchases.
Sales of dark tea products by 39Pu
The Company identifies a single performance obligation from contracts. The Company recognizes revenues on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods, subject to inventory risks and has the discretion in establishing prices. The transaction fees are fixed. Payments received in advance from customers are recorded as “advance from customers” in the consolidated balance sheets. Advance from customers is recognized as revenue when the Company delivers the courses to its customers. Such advance payment received are non-refundable. In cases where fees are collected after the sales, revenue and accounts receivable are recognized upon delivery of products to the Company.
| ● | Income taxes |
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the U.S. GAAP for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.
The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable income to be utilized with prior net operating loss carried forward. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. The Company did not have unrecognized uncertain tax positions or any unrecognized liabilities, interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefit as of December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2016 to 2020 remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

See “Forward-Looking Statements.”
H. Holding Company Structure
The Company is a holding company with no material operations of its own. We conduct our operations through our PRC subsidiaries and consolidated VIE. As a result, our ability to pay dividends depends upon dividends paid by our subsidiaries and consolidated VIE. If our subsidiaries, our consolidated VIE or any newly formed subsidiaries incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing their debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us.
As an offshore holding company, we are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding from the proceeds of our offshore fund raising activities to our PRC subsidiaries only through loans or capital contributions, and to our consolidated affiliated entity only through loans, in each case subject to the satisfaction of the applicable government registration and approval requirements. As a result, there is uncertainty with respect to our ability to provide prompt financial support to our PRC subsidiaries and our VIE when needed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our PRC subsidiaries may use their own retained earnings (rather than Renminbi converted from foreign currency denominated capital) to provide financial support to our consolidated affiliated entity either through entrustment loans from our PRC subsidiaries to our VIE or direct loans to such consolidated affiliated entity’s nominee shareholders, which would be contributed to the consolidated variable entity as capital injections. Such direct loans to the nominee shareholders would be eliminated in our consolidated financial statements against the consolidated affiliated entity’s share capital.

Additionally, Hunan MYT and 39Pu each granted an irrevocable and exclusive option to Shanghai MYT to purchase from each of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, any or all of Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu assets at the lowest purchase price permitted under the PRC laws. Should Shanghai MYT exercise such option, the parties shall enter into a separate asset transfer or similar agreement. For services rendered to Hunan MYT and 39Pu by Shanghai MYT under the agreement, Shanghai MYT is entitled to collect a service fee calculated based on the time of services rendered multiplied by the corresponding rate, plus amount of the services fees or ratio decided by the board of directors of Shanghai MYT based on the value of services rendered by Shanghai MYT and the actual income of Hunan MYT and 39Pu from time to time, which is substantially equal to all of the net income of Hunan MYT and 51% of net income of 39Pu, respectively.
The Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement shall remain in effect for ten years unless it is terminated by Shanghai MYT with 30-day prior written notice. Hunan MYT or 39Pu does not have the right to terminate the agreement unilaterally. Shanghai MYT may unilaterally extend the term of this agreement with prior written notice.
Exclusive Option Agreement
Under the Exclusive Option Agreement between Peng Fang and Shanghai MYT, irrevocably granted Shanghai MYT (or its designee) an exclusive option to purchase, to the extent permitted under PRC law, once or at multiple times, at any time, part or all of their equity interests in Hunan MYT. The option price is equal to the capital paid in by Peng Fang subject to any appraisal or restrictions required by applicable PRC laws and regulations.
Under the Exclusive Option Agreement between three shareholders of 39Pu and Shanghai MYT, the three shareholders irrevocably granted Shanghai MYT (or its designee) an exclusive option to purchase, to the extent permitted under PRC law, once or at multiple times, at any time, part or all of their equity interests in 39Pu. The option price is equal to the capital paid in by the three shareholders subject to any appraisal or restrictions required by applicable PRC laws and regulations.
The agreement remains effective for a term of ten years and may be renewed at Shanghai MYT’s election.
Share Pledge Agreement
Under the Share Pledge Agreement, Peng Fang and the three shareholders of 39Pu each pledged all of their equity interests in Hunan MYT and 39Pu to Shanghai MYT to guarantee the performance of Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu’s obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, in any event of default, as set forth in the Share Pledge Agreement, including that Hunan MYT or Peng Fang, 39Pu or the three shareholders breach their respective contractual obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Shanghai MYT, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including, but not limited to, the right to dispose of the pledged equity interest in accordance with applicable PRC laws. Shanghai MYT shall have the right to collect any and all dividends declared or generated in connection with the equity interest during the term of pledge.
The Share Pledge Agreement shall be effective until all payments due under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement have been paid by Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. Shanghai MYT shall cancel or terminate the Share Pledge Agreement upon Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu’s full payment of fees payable under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement.
Timely Reporting Agreement
To ensure Hunan MYT and 39Pu promptly provide all of the information that Shanghai MYT and the Company need to file various reports with the SEC, a Timely Reporting Agreement was entered between Shanghai MYT, and Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. Under the Timely Reporting Agreement, Hunan MYT and 39Pu each agreed that it is obligated to make its officers and directors available to the Company and promptly provide all information required by the Company so that the Company can file all necessary SEC and other regulatory reports as required.
Although it is not explicitly stipulated in the Timely Reporting Agreement, the parties agreed its term shall be the same as that of the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement.
Power of Attorney
Under the Power of Attorney, Peng Fang and the three shareholders of 39Pu each authorized Shanghai MYT to act on her behalf as her exclusive agent and attorney with respect to all rights as shareholder, including but not limited to: (a) attending shareholders’ meetings; (b) exercising all the shareholder’s rights, including voting, that shareholders are entitled to under the laws of China and the Articles of Association of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, including but not limited to the sale or transfer or pledge or disposition of shares in part or in whole; and (c) designating and appointing on behalf of shareholders the legal representative, the executive director, supervisor, the chief executive officer and other senior management members of Hunan MYT and 39Pu.
Although it is not explicitly stipulated in the Power of Attorney, the term of the Power of Attorney shall be the same as the term of that of the Exclusive Option Agreement.
This Power of Attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of execution of this Power of Attorney, so long as Peng Fang is a shareholder of Company.
The VIE Agreements became effective immediately upon their execution.
Material terms of the BTB VIE Agreements among BTB Qingdao, BTB Hunan, BTB Hunan Digital and their shareholders are identical to those of Hunan MYT VIE Agreements.
VIE is an entity that have either a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity or obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity. The variable interest holder, if any, that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. Shanghai MYT is deemed to have a controlling financial interest and be the primary beneficiary of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, because it has both of the following characteristics:
Pursuant to the VIE Agreements, Hunan MYT and 39Pu pay service fees equal to 100% and 51% of its net income to Shanghai MYT, respectively. At the same time, Shanghai MYT is entitled to receive 100% and 51% of expected residual returns from Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. The VIE Agreements are designed so that Hunan MYT and 39Pu operate for the benefit of the Company. Accordingly, the accounts of Hunan MYT are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to ASC 810-10, Consolidation. In addition, their financial positions and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In addition, as all of these VIE agreements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through arbitration in the PRC, they would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could further limit the Company’s ability to enforce these VIE agreements. Furthermore, these contracts may not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts take a view that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event the Company is unable to enforce these VIE agreements, it may not be able to exert effective control over Hunan MYT or 39Pu and its ability to conduct its business may be materially and adversely affected.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had three VIEs. All of the Company’s main current operations are conducted through the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries. Current regulations in China permit VIEs and their subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company only out of their accumulated distributable profits, if any, determined in accordance with their articles of association and PRC accounting standards and regulations. The ability of VIEs and their subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to the Company may be restricted by factors including changes in applicable foreign exchange and other laws and regulations.
The following financial statement balances and amounts only reflect the financial position and financial performances of the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries, which were included in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31 and June 30, 2021:
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.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company has three operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu and planned blockchain business to be conducted by Hunan BTB. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the three operating business lines are three operating segments as defined by ASC 280.
For the six months ended December 31, 2020, the Company has two operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the two operating business lines are two operating segments as defined by ASC 280.
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on management’s assessment of potential losses based on the credit history and relationships with the customers. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if bad debt allowance is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.
The Company considered the amounts of receivables in dispute and believes an allowance for these receivables were not necessary as at December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021.
Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are stated at the lower of cost and market. Cost of inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and promotional environment. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products purchased. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) beginning on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of ASC 606 and therefore there was no material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.
In according with ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
During the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company generated revenues primarily from sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in its tea shop chains by Hunan MYT, and from sales of dark team products by 39Pu.
Sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in retail shop chains by Hunan MYT
Customers place order and pay for tea products, beverage drinks and light meals in the Company’s tea shop chains. Revenues are recognized at the point of delivery to customers. Customers that purchase prepaid cards are issued additional points for free at the time of purchase. Cash received from the sales of prepaid vouchers are recognized as unearned income. Consideration collected for prepaid cards is equally allocated to each point as an element, including the points issued for free, to determine the transaction price for each point. The allocated transaction price are recognized as revenues upon the redemption of the points for purchases.
Sales of dark tea products by 39Pu - The Company identifies a single performance obligation from contracts. The Company recognizes revenues on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods, subject to inventory risks and has the discretion in establishing prices. The transaction fees are fixed. Payments received in advance from customers are recorded as “advance from customers” in the consolidated balance sheets. Advance from customers is recognized as revenue when the Company delivers the courses to its customers. Such advance payment received are non-refundable. In cases where fees are collected after the sales, revenue and accounts receivable are recognized upon delivery of products to the Company.
Disaggregation of revenue - The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by segments, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:
The investments for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses of these entities, the amortization of intangible assets recognized upon purchase price allocation and dividend distributions or subsequent investments. All unrecognized inter-company profits and losses have been eliminated under the equity method. When the estimated amount to be realized from the investments falls below its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations when the decline in value is considered other than temporary.
The Company elected to record a majority of equity investments in privately held companies using the measurement alternative at cost, less impairment, with subsequent adjustments for observable price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Equity investments in privately held companies accounted for using the measurement alternative are subject to periodic impairment reviews. The Company’s impairment analysis considers both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant effect on the fair value of these equity securities, including consideration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of the Company’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Its mandatory effective dates are as follows: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; 2. All other public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 3. All other entities (private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and employee benefit plans) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On November 15, 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards (including ASC 326 Financial instrument-credit losses) and amends the effective dates to give implementation relief to certain type of entities: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be Smaller Reporting Companies, or SRC, as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 2. All other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in the Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments effective January 1, 2023, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows. |

| Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||
| RISKS |
Assets that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit risk is their carrying amount as at the balance sheet dates. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $20.3 million was deposited with a bank in the United States which was insured by the government up to $250,000. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $0.7 million was primarily deposited in financial institutions located in Mainland China, and each bank accounts is insured by the government authority with the maximum limit of RMB 500,000 (equivalent to approximately $78,700). To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Company primarily place cash deposits with large financial institutions in China which management believes are of high credit quality.
The Company’s operations are carried out in Mainland China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, rates and methods of taxation, and the extraction of mining resources, among other factors.
The Company is also exposed to liquidity risk which is risk that it is unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet its commitments and business needs. Liquidity risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. When necessary, the Company will turn to other financial institutions and the owners to obtain short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.
Substantially all of the Company’s operating activities and the Company’s major assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, except for the cash deposit of approximately $20.3 million which was in U.S. dollars as of December 31, 2021, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market. Where there is a significant change in value of RMB, the gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of a foreign subsidiary will be significant affected.
It is possible that the Hunan MYT VIE Agreements, 39Pu VIE Agreements and BTB VIE Agreements would not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts were to find that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event that the Company were unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, the Company would not be able to exert effective control over the VIE. Consequently, the VIE’s results of operations, assets and liabilities would not be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If such were the case, the Company’s cash flows, financial position, and operating performance would be materially adversely affected. The Company’s contractual arrangements among Shanghai MYT, Hunan MYT and the Hunan MYT Shareholders, among Shanghai MYT, 39Pu and the three shareholders of 39Pu, and among BTB Qingdao, BTB Hunan and all of the shareholders of BTB Hunan are approved and in place. Management believes that such contracts are enforceable, and considers the possibility remote that PRC regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the Company’s operations and contractual relationships would find the contracts to be unenforceable.
The Company’s operations and businesses rely on the operations and businesses of Hunan MYT, 39Pu and BTB Hunan, the VIEs of the Company, each of which holds certain recognized revenue-producing assets including tea beverage related raw materials, lease arrangements, and dark tea products. The VIEs also have an assembled workforce, focused primarily on promotion and marketing, whose costs are expensed as incurred. The Company’s operations and businesses may be adversely impacted if the Company loses the ability to use and enjoy assets held by its VIEs.
The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may also be negatively impacted by risks related to natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, health epidemics and other catastrophic incidents, such as the COVID-19 outbreak and spread, which could significantly disrupt the Company’s operations. |

The Company did not accrue contingent consideration for the acquisition as the Company did not expect such perform targets would be met.
Pursuant to the articles of association of these equity investees, the operating and financing activities shall be unanimously approved by the Company and other shareholders, thus the Company does not control the equity investee but exercised significant influence over the equity investee. In accordance with ASC 323 “Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures”, the Company accounted for the investments using equity method.

| OPERATING LEASE |
As of December 31, 2021, the Company leases offices space under certain non-cancelable operating leases, with terms ranging between one and ten 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.
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.
The table below presents the operating lease related assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheets.
The weighted average remaining lease terms and discount rates for all of operating leases were as follows as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021:
During the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred total operating lease expenses of $121,185 and $100,892, respectively.

British Virgin Islands
Under the current tax laws of BVI, the Company’s subsidiary incorporated in the BVI is not subject to tax on income or capital gains.
The United States of America
Delta Technology Holdings USA Inc is incorporated in the State of Delaware in the U.S., and is subject to U.S. federal corporate income taxes.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law, which has made significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Those changes include, but are not limited to, a U.S. corporate tax rate decrease from 35% to 21% effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the transition of U.S international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial system, and a one-time transition tax on the deemed repatriation of cumulative foreign earnings as of December 31, 2017. Accordingly, the Company reevaluated its deferred tax assets on net operating loss carryforward in the U.S and concluded there was no effect on the Company’s income tax expenses as the Company has no deferred tax assets generated since inception.
As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforward for U.S. income taxes was $9,376,437 and $9,216,271, respectively. The federal net operating loss carryforward is available to reduce future years’ taxable income through year 2037 and net operating losses generated before 2018 will not expire. Management believes that the realization of the benefit from this loss appears uncertain due to the Company’s operating history.
Utilization of the Company’s U.S. net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations set forth in Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the expiration of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization.
Hong Kong
NTH HK and BTB HK are incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax on the taxable income as reported in its statutory financial statements adjusted in accordance with relevant Hong Kong tax laws. The applicable tax rate for the first HKD$2 million of assessable profits is 8.25% and assessable profits above HKD$2 million will continue to be subject to the rate of 16.5% for corporations in Hong Kong, effective from the year of assessment 2018/2019. Before that, the applicable tax rate was 16.5% for corporations in Hong Kong. The Company did not make any provisions for Hong Kong profit tax as there were no assessable profits derived from or earned in Hong Kong since inception. Under Hong Kong tax laws, NTH HK and BTB HK are exempted from income tax on its foreign-derived income and there are no withholding taxed in Hong Kong on remittance of dividends.
PRC
Effective January 1, 2008, the New Taxation Law of PRC stipulates that domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises (the “FIEs”) are subject to a uniform tax rate of 25%. Under the PRC tax law, companies are required to make quarterly estimate payments based on 25% tax rate; companies that received preferential tax rates are also required to use a 25% tax rate for their installment tax payments. The overpayment, however, will not be refunded and can only be used to offset future tax liabilities.
The Company evaluates the level of authority for each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. For the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. Due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company estimates there will not be sufficient future income to realize the deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $20,219,611 and $19,273,124, respectively, and maintains a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred current income tax expenses of $187 and $259,031 arising from taxable profit generated by 39Pu. The Company did not have any deferred tax expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized and recorded as necessary in the provision for income taxes. The Company is subject to income taxes in the PRC. 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. 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. There were no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months. |

The Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement shall remain in effect for ten years unless it is terminated by Shanghai MYT with 30-day prior written notice. Hunan MYT or 39Pu does not have the right to terminate the agreement unilaterally. Shanghai MYT may unilaterally extend the term of this agreement with prior written notice.

Under the terms of the agreement, in any event of default, as set forth in the Share Pledge Agreement, including that Hunan MYT or Peng Fang, 39Pu or the three shareholders breach their respective contractual obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Shanghai MYT, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including, but not limited to, the right to dispose of the pledged equity interest in accordance with applicable PRC laws. Shanghai MYT shall have the right to collect any and all dividends declared or generated in connection with the equity interest during the term of pledge.
The Share Pledge Agreement shall be effective until all payments due under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement have been paid by Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. Shanghai MYT shall cancel or terminate the Share Pledge Agreement upon Hunan MYT’s and 39Pu’s full payment of fees payable under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement.
Timely Reporting Agreement
To ensure Hunan MYT and 39Pu promptly provide all of the information that Shanghai MYT and the Company need to file various reports with the SEC, a Timely Reporting Agreement was entered between Shanghai MYT, and Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. Under the Timely Reporting Agreement, Hunan MYT and 39Pu each agreed that it is obligated to make its officers and directors available to the Company and promptly provide all information required by the Company so that the Company can file all necessary SEC and other regulatory reports as required.
Although it is not explicitly stipulated in the Timely Reporting Agreement, the parties agreed its term shall be the same as that of the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement.
Power of Attorney
Under the Power of Attorney, Peng Fang and the three shareholders of 39Pu each authorized Shanghai MYT to act on her behalf as her exclusive agent and attorney with respect to all rights as shareholder, including but not limited to: (a) attending shareholders’ meetings; (b) exercising all the shareholder’s rights, including voting, that shareholders are entitled to under the laws of China and the Articles of Association of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, including but not limited to the sale or transfer or pledge or disposition of shares in part or in whole; and (c) designating and appointing on behalf of shareholders the legal representative, the executive director, supervisor, the chief executive officer and other senior management members of Hunan MYT and 39Pu.

This Power of Attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of execution of this Power of Attorney, so long as Peng Fang is a shareholder of Company.
The VIE Agreements became effective immediately upon their execution.
Material terms of the BTB VIE Agreements among BTB Qingdao, BTB Hunan, BTB Hunan Digital and their shareholders are identical to those of Hunan MYT VIE Agreements.
VIE is an entity that have either a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity or obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity. The variable interest holder, if any, that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. Shanghai MYT is deemed to have a controlling financial interest and be the primary beneficiary of Hunan MYT and 39Pu, because it has both of the following characteristics:
Pursuant to the VIE Agreements, Hunan MYT and 39Pu pay service fees equal to 100% and 51% of its net income to Shanghai MYT, respectively. At the same time, Shanghai MYT is entitled to receive 100% and 51% of expected residual returns from Hunan MYT and 39Pu, respectively. The VIE Agreements are designed so that Hunan MYT and 39Pu operate for the benefit of the Company. Accordingly, the accounts of Hunan MYT are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to ASC 810-10, Consolidation. In addition, their financial positions and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In addition, as all of these VIE agreements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through arbitration in the PRC, they would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could further limit the Company’s ability to enforce these VIE agreements. Furthermore, these contracts may not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts take a view that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event the Company is unable to enforce these VIE agreements, it may not be able to exert effective control over Hunan MYT or 39Pu and its ability to conduct its business may be materially and adversely affected.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had three VIEs. All of the Company’s main current operations are conducted through the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries. Current regulations in China permit VIEs and their subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company only out of their accumulated distributable profits, if any, determined in accordance with their articles of association and PRC accounting standards and regulations. The ability of VIEs and their subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to the Company may be restricted by factors including changes in applicable foreign exchange and other laws and regulations.
The following financial statement balances and amounts only reflect the financial position and financial performances of the Company’s VIEs and their subsidiaries, which were included in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31 and June 30, 2021:

| Segment reporting |
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.
For the six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company has three operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu and planned blockchain business to be conducted by Hunan BTB. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the three operating business lines are three operating segments as defined by ASC 280.
For the six months ended December 31, 2020, the Company has two operating business lines, including retail business by provision of high-quality tea beverages in its tea shop chain business conducted by Hunan MYT, dark tea distribution business by 39Pu. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that the two operating business lines are two operating segments as defined by ASC 280.

| Trade receivables |
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on management’s assessment of potential losses based on the credit history and relationships with the customers. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if bad debt allowance is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.
The Company considered the amounts of receivables in dispute and believes an allowance for these receivables were not necessary as at December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021.

| Inventories |
Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are stated at the lower of cost and market. Cost of inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method. Adjustments are recorded to write down the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and promotional environment. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products purchased. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

| Revenue recognition |
The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) beginning on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of ASC 606 and therefore there was no material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.
In according with ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
During the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company generated revenues primarily from sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in its tea shop chains by Hunan MYT, and from sales of dark team products by 39Pu.
Sales of tea products, beverages and light meals in retail shop chains by Hunan MYT
Customers place order and pay for tea products, beverage drinks and light meals in the Company’s tea shop chains. Revenues are recognized at the point of delivery to customers. Customers that purchase prepaid cards are issued additional points for free at the time of purchase. Cash received from the sales of prepaid vouchers are recognized as unearned income. Consideration collected for prepaid cards is equally allocated to each point as an element, including the points issued for free, to determine the transaction price for each point. The allocated transaction price are recognized as revenues upon the redemption of the points for purchases.
Sales of dark tea products by 39Pu - The Company identifies a single performance obligation from contracts. The Company recognizes revenues on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods, subject to inventory risks and has the discretion in establishing prices. The transaction fees are fixed. Payments received in advance from customers are recorded as “advance from customers” in the consolidated balance sheets. Advance from customers is recognized as revenue when the Company delivers the courses to its customers. Such advance payment received are non-refundable. In cases where fees are collected after the sales, revenue and accounts receivable are recognized upon delivery of products to the Company.
Disaggregation of revenue - The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by segments, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

| Investments in equity securities |
The investments for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses of these entities, the amortization of intangible assets recognized upon purchase price allocation and dividend distributions or subsequent investments. All unrecognized inter-company profits and losses have been eliminated under the equity method. When the estimated amount to be realized from the investments falls below its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations when the decline in value is considered other than temporary.
The Company elected to record a majority of equity investments in privately held companies using the measurement alternative at cost, less impairment, with subsequent adjustments for observable price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Equity investments in privately held companies accounted for using the measurement alternative are subject to periodic impairment reviews. The Company’s impairment analysis considers both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant effect on the fair value of these equity securities, including consideration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

| Recently announced accounting standards |
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of the Company’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Its mandatory effective dates are as follows: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; 2. All other public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 3. All other entities (private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and employee benefit plans) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On November 15, 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10 which provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards (including ASC 326 Financial instrument-credit losses) and amends the effective dates to give implementation relief to certain type of entities: 1. Public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be Smaller Reporting Companies, or SRC, as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and 2. All other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in the Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments effective January 1, 2023, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the potential effect on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows. |
