VIVIC CORP.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE– 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
VIVIC CORP. (the “Company” or “VIVC”) was established under the corporate laws of the State of Nevada on February 16, 2017. Beginning with a change in management resulting from a change in control of the Company which occurred at the end of 2018, the Company has explored and initiated operations in a number of business areas related to the pleasure boat industry. These included yacht sales, marine tourism, development of electric powered yachts, development and operation of yacht marinas in Asia and the development of a yacht rental and time share service. More recently, the Company determined to focus its efforts on yacht sales in Taiwan and other selected regions throughout the world. The Company is the exclusive distributor of Monte-Fino yachts in the People’s Republic of China, the Philippines and the Middle East. Monte Fino is a well-known brand owned by Taiwan Kha Shing Yacht Company, one of the leading yacht manufacturers in the world.
The Company’s headquarters are maintained at its branch in the Republic of China (“ROC” or “Taiwan”), Vivic Corp. Taiwan Branch (“Vivic Taiwan”). It is mainly engaged in yacht procurement, sales, and leasing services in Taiwan and other countries.
On
July 12, 2023, Vivic Corporation (Hong Kong) Co. Limited (“Vivic Hong Kong”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered
into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Yun-Kuang Kung (“Mr. Kung”, son of Shang-Chiai Kung, the Company’s principal shareholder,
President and Chairman), pursuant to which, Mr. Kung acquired all of the shares of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Guangdong
Weiguan Ship Tech Co., Ltd (“Weiguan Ship”). In consideration for its interest in Weiguan Ship, the Company received RMB
Description of subsidiaries as of December 31, 2024 is as follows:
| Name | Place of incorporation and kind of legal entity | Principal activities and place of operation | Particulars of issued/ registered share capital | Effective interest held | ||||
| Vivic Corporation (Hong Kong) Co., Limited | ordinary shares for HK$ | |||||||
| Vivic Corp. Taiwan Branch | Registered: TWD Paid Up: TWD |
On October 9, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution changing the fiscal year end of the Company to June 30, effective June 30, 2024. Management believes the change will cause the Company’s annual financial statements to more accurately reflect the Company’s performance and facilitate the timely preparation of its periodic reports required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
NOTE– 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
| 8 |
● Basis of presentation
These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
● Use of estimates
Preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
● Principles of consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of VIVC and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
● Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in readily available checking and saving accounts. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and that mature within three months or less from the date of purchase. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.
● Credit losses
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The adoption of the credit loss accounting standard has no material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2023.
The Company’s account receivables and other receivables in the balance sheet are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. As the Company has limited customers and debtors, the Company uses the loss-rate method to evaluate the expected credit losses on an individual basis. When establishing the loss rate, the Company makes the assessment based on various factors, including historical experience, credit-worthiness of customers and debtors, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from the customers and debtors. The Company also provides specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that a receivable is unlikely to be collected.
Expected credit losses are recorded as allowance for credit losses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers an amount that it previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses.
| 9 |
● Accounts receivable
Accounts
receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest and are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to
90 days from completion of service. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, the customer’s
credit-worthiness and payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past
due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. Under the current expected
credit loss model, at the end of each period, the Company specifically evaluates each individual customer’s financial condition,
credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company considers
the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments.
For receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, appropriate actions are taken to collect the amounts
due, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all reasonable
means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet
credit exposure related to its customers. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had
● Advances to Suppliers
The
Company makes advances to certain vendors to purchase finished goods and service. The advances are interest-free and
unsecured. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had advanced to suppliers of $
● Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a weighted-average basis. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made to write down inventories to market value, if lower.
● Property and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which assets become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
| Expected useful life | ||
| Service yacht | ||
| Motor vehicle | ||
| Office equipment |
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets have been retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
● Intangible assets, net
Intangible
assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets represent the trademark registered in the PRC and purchased
software which are amortized on a straight-line basis over a useful life of
The
Company follows ASC Topic 350 in accounting for intangible assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the assets are less than the assets’ carrying
amounts. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were
● Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue represents advance payments made by a customer for goods and services the Company will provide in the future. Due to its short-term nature, deferred revenue is usually satisfied within 12 months.
| 10 |
● Revenue recognition
In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, the Company recognizes revenues when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenues are recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognition of revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company derives revenues from processing, distribution, and sales of its products, mainly yachts. The Company recognize its revenue at a point in time when the control of the products has been transferred to customers.
● Comprehensive income (loss)
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components, and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income (loss) is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
● Income taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
The Company is subject to tax in local and foreign jurisdictions. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities.
● Foreign currencies translation
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
| 11 |
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar (“US$”) and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries operating or which operated in the PRC, Taiwan and Hong Kong, maintain their books and records in their local currency, Renminbi (“RMB”), New Taiwan Dollar (“TWD”) and Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”), each of which is a functional currency, being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholder’s equity (deficit).
Translation of amounts from TWD and HK$ into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, and for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | June 30, 2024 | ||||||||||
| Period/year-end HK$:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||||||
| Period/annual average HK$:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||||||
| Period/year-end TWD:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||||||
| Period/annual average TWD:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||||||
● Lease
At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. However, certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as prepaid or accrued lease payments. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g., land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g., property taxes, insurance, etc.). Subsequently, the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on the respective relative fair values to the lease components and non-lease components.
The Company made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components. Each lease component and the related non-lease components are accounted for together as a single component.
The Company calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share of common stock is computed similar to basic loss per share of common stock except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common stock were dilutive (see Note 13).
● Related parties
Parties, which can be an entity or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
| 12 |
● Concentrations and credit risk
The Company’s principal financial instruments subject to potential concentration of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents, including amounts held in money market accounts. The Company places cash deposits with a federally insured financial institution. The Company maintains its cash at banks and financial institutions it considers to be of high credit quality; however, the Company’s domestic cash deposits may at times exceed the insured limit. Balances in excess of insured limitations may not be insured. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts, and management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
● Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding short-term bank borrowing and notes payable): cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax payable, amount due to a related party, other payables and accrued liabilities approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Management believes, based on the current market prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of notes payable approximates the carrying amount.
The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
● Level 1 : Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets;
● Level 2 : Inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and
● Level 3 : Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
● Value-Added Tax (“VAT”)
Sellers
and service providers are generally obligated to pay business tax for sales of goods or services within Taiwan unless the law provides
otherwise. For imported goods, the business tax will be paid by the goods receivers or buyers via customs. For imported services sold
by foreign companies to Taiwanese buyers, business tax shall be paid by the service buyers.
VAT
is applicable to general industries, and the VAT rate is
● Recent accounting pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). The amendments in ASU 2023-07 improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires disclosures of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, will have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.
NOTE– 3 GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The
Company had $
The continuation of the Company as a going concern through the one-year period from the date on which this report is filed is dependent upon continued financial support from its related parties or loans or investments by third parties, increasing its sales and the diversity of its customer base. The Company is actively pursuing additional financing for its operations via potential loans and equity issuances. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain its operations.
Management has determined that the above conditions indicate that it may be probable that the Company would not be able to meet its obligations within one year after the date that this report is issued. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. To date the Company has financed its operations primarily through equity investments and loans made by related parties and their affiliates in addition to loans from commercial banks and third parties. The Company may also seek funding through public or private financings, collaborative arrangements, and other possible means of financing.
In addition, the Company will seek to expand the yacht brands the Company can offer for sale, the territories in which the Company markets its yachts and, if appropriate based on the Company’s capabilities and what the Company can offer, seek to become the exclusive distributor for yacht manufacturers in Taiwan and other territories. The Company will also seek to enter other areas related to the marine industry where the Company believes it can be profitable.

Any forward-looking statements represent management’s commercially reasonable judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected.

Overview
We are a global yacht sales and service provider based in Taiwan focused on offering yachts, ancillary products, technical support, service solutions and systematic management solutions to yacht marinas, yacht clubs, yacht operators and marine tourism providers. Our mission is to offer our clients, which we refer to as yacht operators, more profitable products and comprehensive service solutions. We differentiate ourselves from other yacht manufacturers by offering yachts specifically designed for marine tourism, group tours, business meetings, yacht clubs and fractional ownership as opposed to individual owners. In addition to our products, we seek to support our customers by providing maintenance and other yacht management services, yacht activity scenarios, business solutions and marketing strategies to enhance yacht tourism and operational efficiencies to enable them to grow their businesses and improve their bottom lines.
We design and offer various yachts models which differ in their sizes, performance, and functions and are sold under our brand name, “VIVIC.” Our yachts are designed to be more suitable for multiple user group scenarios, emphasizing open deck and cabin space suitable for group tours and business meetings, with improved operational economies and energy efficiencies. We collaborate with our marketing agents, encouraging them to develop yacht marinas and seek out yacht operators interested in developing their own businesses based upon yacht sharing.
Our yachts are manufactured by third parties selected by us on the basis of their production capabilities, technical ability and financial wherewithal. Once a customer places an order, we negotiate and sign an original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) contract with a selected local manufacturer. Upon completion, we deliver the boat to the location designated by our customer. Our principal supplier and distributor in mainland China is Guangdong Weiguan Ship Technology Co., Ltd., which utilizes the mainland’s production and supply chain advantages to provide us with yacht production, delivery, and after-sales services based on our designs. Guangdong Weiguan is responsible for providing the required products and after-sales services for all sales orders in mainland China and remits 15% of the order amount of each yacht to us as a “VIVIC” brand usage fee.
In addition to our own yachts, we are the exclusive distributor of Monte Fino yachts in the People’s Republic of China, the Philippines and the Middle East pursuant to our agreement with Kha Shing Enterprise Co., Ltd. (Taiwan) (“Kha Shing”). While seeking to develop the market for sales to tour operators, we will also seek to increase sales of Monte Fino luxury yachts in the territories where we are the exclusive distributor, particularly in the 70 to 150 foot range, which are generally purchased by individual private yacht owners.
As our Company grows, we will seek to expand the yacht brands we offer for sale, the territories in which we market yachts and, if appropriate based on our capabilities and what we can offer, seek to become the exclusive distributor for yacht manufacturers in Taiwan and other territories. We will also seek to enter other areas related to the marine industry where we believe we can be profitable. As part of our efforts, we recently entered into an Electric Catamaran Yacht Co-Development Agreement with Acel Power Inc. to collaborate on the development of an electric yacht.

Results of Operations
In 2023, we determined to focus our efforts on yacht sales in Taiwan and other selected regions throughout the world, and since that time have disposed of all of our business operations in mainland China. On July 12, 2023, our subsidiary, Vivic Corporation (Hong Kong) Co. Limited (“Vivic Hong Kong”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Yun-Kuang Kung pursuant to which Mr. Kung acquired all of the shares of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Guangdong Weiguan Ship Tech Co., Ltd. (“Weiguan Ship”). The divestiture of Weiguan Ship completed our plan to divest of all activities other than our ongoing yacht business in Taiwan.
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.
As a result of the sale of our interest in Weiguan Ship and its subsidiaries, the assets and related liabilities and the results of operations of such entities are included our financial statements as discontinued operations. The following table sets forth the results of our operations for the periods indicated as a percentage of net sales. Certain columns may not add due to rounding.

Revenue
Revenue was $44,243 for the six months ended December 31, 2024. Revenue from continuing operations was $1,600,942 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2024 was mainly from the sale of yacht models. We sold 100 yacht models to one of the Company’s directors below cost. We considered this as marketing and advertising because the director will give our yacht models to prospective purchasers to promote and market our yachts. The revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2023 was mainly due to the inception of sales of yachts at our Taiwan branch.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue from continuing operations was $128,584 for the six months ended December 31, 2024. Cost of revenue from continuing operations was $1,388,728 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The cost of revenues in the six months ended December 31, 2024 was mainly due to costs associated with yacht model sales. We sold 100 yacht models to one of the Company’s directors below cost.

Gross profit (loss)
Gross profit (loss) for the six months ended December 31, 2024, was a loss of $84,341 as we had no sales other than yacht model sale. Gross profit from continuing operations was $212,214 for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

| 25 |
Operating expenses
General and administrative expenses consisted mainly of employee salaries and welfare, and expenses for business meeting, utilities, accounting, consulting, and legal services. General and administrative expenses were $488,564 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $242,888 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of $245,676 or 101.15%. The increase of G&A expenses mainly reflected increased payroll expenses of approximately $31,147 and increased professional fees of approximately $197,462.
In addition, during the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $805,000 stock compensation expense in respect of the 700,000 shares issued to Mr. Shang Chiai Kung and newly appointed directors as described above.
During the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $34,167 stock compensation expense for the services of Mr. Hong Hsin Lai’s as described above.
During the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $8,200 stock compensation expense in respect of the engagement agreement with an IR firm described above.
Other income (expenses), net
Net other expenses were $126,183 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and $20,872 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, net other expenses mainly consisted of interest expense of $15,274, and other expenses of $110,909. For the period ended December 31, 2023, net other expenses mainly consisted of interest expense of $11,345 and other expenses of $9,527.
Net (income) loss from continuing operations
We had a net loss from continuing operations of $1,547,193 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $53,077 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, an increase in our loss of $1,494,116. The increase in our net loss from continuing operations was mainly due to the decrease in our revenue and increased G&A expenses and stock compensation expenses as described above.
LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
We had $53,616 cash and cash equivalents, and working capital of $3,179,136 as of December 31, 2024, and generated a net loss of $1,547,193 during the six months ended December 31, 2024. Of the assets included in working capital, approximately $2.5 million was amounts due from related parties, and prepayment to related parties of $1.5 million. The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (443,287 | ) | $ | (235,490 | ) | ||

Net cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $443,287 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $235,490 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in the use of cash in operating activities was principally attributable to 1) the increase in our loss (after adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) to net cash used in operating activities) by $646,774, 2) decreased cash inflow from inventory of $807,653, 3) increased cash outflow from accounts payable and accounts payable to related party by $1,324,361, which was partly offset by 1) increased cash inflow from accounts receivable and accounts receivable from related party by $1,415,801, 2) increased cash inflow from note receivable by $160,391, 3) increased cash inflow from deposits and prepayments by $115,231, and 4) increased cash inflow from deferred revenue by $816,496.
| 26 |
Net cash used in investing activities
There was no cash provided by or used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $186,263 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $571,263 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024, consisted of proceeds from related party advances of $512,630 and proceeds from a loan from a third party of $92,845, which was partly offset by repayments to related parties of $279,944 and repayment of loans of $139,268. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2023, consisted of repayments to related parties of $572,383, which was partly offset by receipts from related parties of $1,120.
Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
We had $53,616 of cash and cash equivalents and working capital of approximately $3.2 million as of December 31, 2024, which included amounts due from related parties of $2.5 million, deposit and prepayments to related parties of $1.5 million and due to related parties of $0.4 million. We generated a net loss of $1.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024, and we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $3.8 million as of December 31, 2024, and generated negative cash flow from operating activities during the period of $0.4 million. We do not have sustained and stable income, and there is also significant uncertainty in regarding its income for the next 12 months.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern through the one-year anniversary of the date of this filing is dependent upon continued financial support from its related parties and loans or investments from third parties. The Company is actively pursuing additional financing for its operations through loans and the sale of equity. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain its operations.
Management has determined that the above conditions indicate that it may be probable that the Company would not be able to meet its obligations within one year after the date of issuance of this report. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds, cash generated from operations, loans from and further issuances of securities to our principal shareholders. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.
Existing working capital, further advances and the issuance of debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next six months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements apart from amounts outstanding under our SBA Loan and our loan with Taiwan Hua Nan Bank. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments to our principal shareholders. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) developmental expenses associated with our business and (ii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of equity securities and debt instruments. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current stockholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
As of the date of this report, we do not have any material commitments.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. Accounting policies are critical and necessary to account for the material estimates and assumptions on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. For further information on all of our significant accounting policies, see the “Notes to unaudited condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of this Report.
● Revenue recognition
In accordance with ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, the Company recognizes revenues when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenues are recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognition of revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company derives revenues from the processing, distribution, and sale of its products.
● Credit losses
On January1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. The adoption of the credit loss accounting standard has no material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2023.
The Company’s account receivables and other receivables in the balance sheet are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. As the Company has limited customers and debtors, the Company uses the loss-rate method to evaluates the expected credit losses on an individual basis. When establishing the loss rate, the Company makes the assessment on various factors, including historical experience, credit-worthiness of customers and debtors, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from the customers and debtors. The Company also provides specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that the receivable is unlikely to be collected.
Expected credit losses are recorded as allowance for credit losses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers amount that is previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses.
| 28 |
● Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest and are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from completion of service. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, the customer’s credit-worthiness and payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. Under the current expected credit loss model, at the end of each period, the Company specifically evaluates each individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company considers the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, appropriate actions are taken to collect the amounts due, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts.
● Income taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
The Company is subject to tax in local and foreign jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities.
● Related parties
Parties, which can be an entity or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
● Recent accounting pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). The amendments in ASU 2023-07 improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires disclosures of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management of our Company is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.
An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act) at December 31, 2024 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, they concluded that at December 31, 2024, such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. This was due to our limited resources, including the absence of a financial staff with accounting and financial expertise and deficiencies in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our disclosure controls and that may be considered to be “material weaknesses.”
We plan to designate individuals responsible for identifying reportable developments and to implement procedures designed to remediate the material weakness by focusing additional attention and resources in our internal accounting functions at such time as such actions can be properly supported by the financial results of our operations. However, there is no assurance as to when we will undertake to hire the personnel and implement the procedures necessary to remediate the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and the material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter which is the subject of this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
