1.Organization and Reorganization

TuanChe Limited (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 28, 2012. The Company is a holding company and conducts its business mainly through its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of VIEs (collectively referred to as the “Group”). The Group commenced operations through TuanChe Internet, a PRC company established by several PRC citizens in May 2012. TuanChe Internet holds an Internet Content Provider (“ICP”) license to operate Tuanche.com that provides internet information services to automobile manufacturers, car dealers and consumers.

The Group is primarily engaged in the operation of providing auto shows, special promotion events services, referral service for a commercial bank, online marketing services, subscription and support service, aftermarket promotion service, customer referral services and other related businesses in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”).

Contractual arrangements with VIEs

PRC laws and regulations place certain restrictions on foreign investment in value-added telecommunication service businesses. The Group conduct operations in the PRC partially through TuanChe Internet, Drive New Media, Internet Drive Technology and Tansuojixian, which are variable interest entities, or VIEs, and their subsidiaries, collectively referred to as consolidated affiliated entities. The Group have entered into a series of contractual arrangements, through TuanYuan, Sangu Maolu and Chema, or its WFOEs, with each of its VIEs and their respective shareholders, respectively. The series of contractual arrangements include exclusive business cooperation agreement, exclusive call option agreement, equity pledge agreement, powers of attorney and spousal consent letters.

The Group believes that these contractual arrangements enable the Company to (1) have power to direct the activities that most significantly affects the economic performance of the VIEs, and (2) receive the economic benefits of the VIEs that could be significant to the VIEs. Accordingly, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIEs and is able to consolidate the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries.

Risks in relation to the VIE structure

A significant part of the Company’s business is conducted through the VIEs of the Group, of which the Company is the ultimate primary beneficiary. In the opinion of management, the contractual arrangements with the VIEs and the nominee shareholders are in compliance with PRC laws and regulations and are legally binding and enforceable. The nominee shareholders are also shareholders of the Group and have indicated they will not act contrary to the contractual arrangements. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations including those that govern the contractual arrangements, which could limit the Group’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements and if the nominee shareholders of the VIEs were to reduce their interests in the Group, their interest may diverge from that of the Group and that may potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the contractual arrangements.

1.Organization and Reorganization (Continued)

Risks in relation to the VIE structure (Continued)

In January 2015, the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”), released for public comment a proposed PRC law, the Draft Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIE”) Law, that appears to include VIEs within the scope of entities that could be considered to be FIEs, that would be subject to restrictions under existing PRC law on foreign investment in certain categories of industry. Specifically, the Draft FIE Law introduces the concept of “actual control” for determining whether an entity is considered to be an FIE. In addition to control through direct or indirect ownership or equity, the Draft FIE Law includes control through contractual arrangements within the definition of “actual control”. On March 15, 2019, the National People’s Congress adopted the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, which became effective on January 1, 2020 and replaced three laws regulating foreign investment in China, namely, the Wholly Foreign-Invested Enterprise Law of the PRC, the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC and the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the PRC, together with their implementation rules and ancillary regulations. On December 26, 2019, the State Council issued the Regulations on Implementing the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, which came into effect on January 1, 2020, and replaced the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, Provisional Regulations on the Duration of Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Regulations on Implementing the Wholly Foreign-Invested Enterprise Law, and the Regulations on Implementing the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise Law. The Foreign Investment Law of the PRC embodies an expected PRC regulatory trend to rationalize its foreign investment regulatory regime in line with prevailing international practice and the legislative efforts to unify the corporate legal requirements for both foreign and domestic investments. Under the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, VIEs that are controlled via contractual arrangement would not be absolutely deemed as Foreign-Invested Enterprises, or FIEs. Therefore, the current legal status of Contractual Arrangement as a whole and each of the agreements comprising the Contractual Arrangement will not be materially affected by the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC and its implementing regulations. However, since it is relatively new, uncertainties still exist in relation to its interpretation and implementation. For example, the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC adds a catch-all clause to the definition of “foreign investment” so that foreign investment, by its definition, includes “investments made by foreign investors in China through other means defined by other laws or administrative regulations or provisions promulgated by the State Council” without further elaboration on the meaning of “other means.” It leaves leeway for the future legislations promulgated by the State Council to provide for contractual arrangements as a form of foreign investment. It is therefore uncertain whether the Group’s corporate structure will be seen as violating the foreign investment rules as the Group is currently leverage the contractual arrangement to operate certain businesses in which foreign investors are prohibited from or restricted to investing. Furthermore, if future legislations prescribed by the State Council mandate further actions to be taken by companies with respect to existing contractual arrangement, the Group may face substantial uncertainties as to whether the Group can complete such actions in a timely manner, or at all. If the Group fails to take appropriate and timely measures to comply with any of these or similar regulatory compliance requirements, the Group’s current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations could be materially and adversely affected.

The Company’s ability to control the VIEs also depends on the Power of Attorney the shareholders has to vote on all matters requiring shareholder approval in the VIEs. As noted above, the Company believes these Power of Attorney are legally enforceable but may not be as effective as direct equity ownership.

1.Organization and Reorganization (Continued)

Risks in relation to the VIE structure (Continued)

In addition, if the Group’s corporate structure or the contractual arrangements with the VIEs were found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws and regulations, the PRC regulatory authorities could, within their respective jurisdictions:

revoke the Group’s business and operating licenses
require the Group to discontinue or restrict its operations;
restrict the Group’s right to collect revenues;
block the Group’s websites;
require the Group to restructure the operations, re-apply for the necessary licenses or relocate the Group’s businesses, staff and assets;
impose additional conditions or requirements with which the Group may not be able to comply; or
take other regulatory or enforcement actions against the Group that could be harmful to the Group’s business.

The imposition of any of these restrictions or actions could result in a material adverse effect on the Group’s ability to conduct its business. In such case, the Group may not be able to operate or control the VIEs, which may result in deconsolidation of the VIEs in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the likelihood for the Group to lose such ability is remote based on current facts and circumstances. The Group believes that the contractual arrangements among each of the VIEs, their respective shareholders and relevant wholly foreign owned enterprise are in compliance with PRC law and are legally enforceable. The Group’s operations depend on the VIEs to honor their contractual arrangements with the Group. These contractual arrangements are governed by PRC law and disputes arising out of these agreements are expected to be decided by arbitration in the PRC. Management believes that each of the contractual arrangements constitutes valid and legally binding obligations of each party to such contractual arrangements under PRC laws. However, the interpretation and implementation of the laws and regulations in the PRC and their application on the legality, binding effect and enforceability of contracts are subject to the discretion of competent PRC authorities, and therefore there is no assurance that relevant PRC authorities will take the same position as the Group herein in respect of the legality, binding effect and enforceability of each of the contractual arrangements. Meanwhile, since the PRC legal system continues to evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to the Group to enforce the contractual arrangements should the VIEs or the nominee shareholders of the VIEs fail to perform their obligations under those arrangements.

1.Organization and Reorganization (Continued)

Risks in relation to the VIE structure (Continued)

In accordance with various contractual agreements, the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs and can have assets transferred out of the VIEs. Therefore, the Company considers that there are no assets in the respective VIEs that can be used only to settle obligations of the respective VIEs, except for the registered capital of the VIEs amounting to approximately RMB40.1 million and RMB40.1 million as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. As the respective VIEs are incorporated as limited liability companies under the PRC Company Law, creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company for the liabilities of the respective VIEs. There is currently no contractual arrangement that would require the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIEs. As the Group is conducting certain businesses in the PRC through the VIEs, the Group may provide additional financial support on a discretionary basis in the future, which could expose the Group to a loss.

There is no VIE in the Group where the Company or any subsidiary has a variable interest but is not the primary beneficiary.

2.Going Concern and impact of COVID-19 pandemic

The Group has incurred recurring operating losses since its inception, including net losses of RMB101.9 million and RMB166.5 million (as restated) for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively and net losses of RMB30.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities were RMB92.3 million and RMB109.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively and cash used in operating activities of RMB52.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Accumulated deficit was RMB1,180.8 million as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB21.9 million. The control measurement of COVID-19 has been removed and the Company’s business is recovering from COVID-19, especially offline auto show business. However, the recovery of the company’s business still encountered some difficulties, including weak economic growth of China and resignation of staffs, negatively impacted the Group’s business operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and has continued to impact the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Historically, the Group has relied principally on both operational sources of cash and non-operational sources of financing from investors to fund its operations and business development. The Group’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s ability to successfully execute its business plan which includes strictly implemented the expenses, accelerating the collection of accounts receivable and increasing the proportion of advance from customers, pursuing cooperation opportunities for electric vehicles industry and potential financing to improve the Group’s cash flow from operations and financing. At present, China’s economy is still in the process of recovering from the COVID-19 epidemic. Due to that the control measurement of COVID-19 has been removed, the Group’s offline auto show business has greatly recovered compared to prior year. However, the Group’s live streaming business need to intensified renegotiation with live streaming customers to continue and enhance the cooperation with them, and this faces the risk of failure, which has significantly impacted and may continue to impact the Group’s business, result of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

If the Group fails to achieve these goals, the Group may need additional financing to execute its business plan. If additional financing is required, the Group cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity, debt, or another form, and the Group may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In the event that financing sources are not available, or that the Group is unsuccessful in increasing its gross profit margin and reducing operating losses, the Group may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations and would materially adversely affect its ability to continue as a going concern.

The Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of such uncertainties.

3.Significant Accounting Policies

a)Basis of presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted.

In the opinion of management, the information reflects all adjustments necessary to make the results of operations for the interim periods a fair statement of such operations. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Half year results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

b)Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power, has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of the board of directors, or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders.

A consolidated VIE is an entity in which the Company, or its subsidiary, through contractual arrangements, has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, bears the risks of and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary of the entity.

All transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries, VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation.

c)Use of estimates

The preparation of the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date and reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates include, but are not limited to determining the provision for accounts receivable, provision for prepayment and other current assets, assessment for valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, valuation and recognition of share-based compensation expenses, impairment assessment on goodwill and long-lived assets, long-term investments, valuation of warrant liabilities.

d)Convenience Translation

Translations of balances in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows from RMB into US$ as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00 = RMB7.2513 representing the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on June 30, 2023. No representation is made that the RMB amounts represent or could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on June 30, 2023, or at any other rate.

3.Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

e)Fair value measurements

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Group considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical asset or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 applies to asset or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Group’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, prepayment and other current assets, long-term investments, short-term borrowings, accounts payable, other payables and other liabilities of which the carrying values approximate their fair value due to their short term in nature and other liabilities.

The fair value of warrant liability was determined using the Black Scholes Model, with level 3 inputs (Note 14).

f)Accounts and notes receivables, net

The carrying value of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects the Group’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating collection is unlikely, historical bad debt rates, accounts aging, financial conditions of the customer and industry trends. Starting from January 1, 2021, the Group adopted ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASC Topic 326”). The Group’s accounts receivable and other receivables are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. To estimate expected credit losses, the Group has identified the relevant risk characteristics of the receivables which include size and nature. Receivables with similar risk characteristics have been grouped into pools. For each pool, the Group considers the past collection experience, current economic conditions and future economic conditions (external data and macroeconomic factors). This is assessed at each quarter based on the Group’s specific facts and circumstances. There have been no significant changes in the assumptions since adoption. Accounts receivable balances are written off against the allowance when they are determined to be uncollectible. Notes receivable represents notes receivable issued by reputable financial institutions that entitle the Group to receive the full face amount from the financial institutions at maturity. Refer to Note 5 for details.

g)Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of an acquired business. The Group’s goodwill as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023 was related to its acquisition of Longye in January 2020. In accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, recorded goodwill amounts are not amortized, but rather are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment present.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis (December 31 for the Group) and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances include a significant change in stock prices, business environment, legal factors, financial performances, competition, or events affecting the reporting unit. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. The estimation of fair value of reporting unit using a discounted cash flow methodology also requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for the Group’s business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of the Group’s weighted average cost of capital. The estimates used to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit change from year to year based on operating results and market conditions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and goodwill impairment for the reporting unit.

Management has determined that the Group has one reporting unit within the entity at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Starting from January 1, 2020, the Group adopted ASU 2017-04, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, versus determining an implied fair value in Step 2 to measure the impairment loss. Management evaluated the recoverability of goodwill by performing a qualitative assessment before using the quantitative impairment test approach at the reporting unit level. Based on an assessment of the qualitative factors, management determined that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is more than its carrying amount as of June 30, 2022 and 2023. Therefore, management performed quantitative assessment, nil and nil impairment loss was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

If the Group reorganizes its reporting structure in a manner that changes the composition of its reporting units, goodwill is reassigned based on the relative fair value of each of the affected reporting units.

h)Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets or asset group, including intangible assets with finite lives, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Group had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Group evaluates the impairment for the long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Group recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. The Group recognized RMB15.6 million and RMB1.5 million impairment charge related to long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

i)Revenue recognition

The Group recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services using the five steps defined under ASC Topic 606.

The Group determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
determination of the transaction price;
allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
recognition of revenue when, or as, the Group satisfies a performance obligation

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to a customer.

Revenue is recorded net of Value Added Tax (“VAT”) and related surcharges collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.

Offline marketing services revenue

Auto shows revenue

The Group’s online website and offline infrastructure allow them to organize auto shows, which aim at facilitating transactions between consumers and industry customers that includes auto dealers, automakers and automotive service providers. The Group charges a fixed admission fee per auto show event from its industry customers for arranging, decorating and providing booth space at auto shows. The Group has identified one performance obligation for the transaction - providing a decorated venue for auto dealers, automakers and automotive service providers, as the individual service promised in auto show contracts are not distinct individually. As the Group has control of the auto show services and discretion in establishing the price of auto show admission fee to auto dealers, automakers and other automotive service providers, it is considered to be a principal in accordance with ASC 606. The auto shows revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the contract, which is usually from two days to four days, when the services are provided.

Special promotion events revenue

The Group provides integrated services to support auto dealers’ own special promotion events during a specific period. The services include event planning and execution, marketing, training and onsite coaching, etc. The Group charges a fixed service fee per special promotion event. The Group has identified one performance obligation as the individual service promised in service contracts are not distinct individually. As the Group has control of the service and discretion in establishing the price of the fee to auto dealers, it is considered to be a principal in accordance with ASC 606. The special promotion events revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the promotion period of the contract, which is usually one week, when the services are provided.

Referral service for commercial bank revenue

In October 2019, the Group commenced its auto loan referral services in collaboration with a commercial bank. The referral services provided to the bank include (i) referral services and (ii) periodic guarantee for the following time periods: (a) from the date of loan issuance by the commercial bank to the consumer to the date when the consumer’s vehicle mortgage registration is completed (the mortgage registration procedures should be completed within 120 days after the loan issuance) and (b) no overdue of more than 30 days for any of the first 3 monthly repayment. The referral service and periodic guarantee are two separate performance obligations that meet the criteria to be considered distinct, of which, referral services revenue is recognized at a point in time upon the delivery of the services and a guarantee liability is recorded at fair value at inception of the loans. Revenue from the periodic guarantee is recognized by a systematic and rational amortization method over the term of guarantee period. The Company has ceased the cooperation since April 2022.

Online marketing services revenue

The Group’s online marketing services revenue primarily include (i) live streaming promotion events services, (ii) customer referral services, (iii) marketing information services and (iv) demand-side platform services.

The Group commenced its live streaming promotion events services from the first quarter of 2020, holding promotional events on the live streaming platform of Zhejiang Tmall Technology Co., Ltd. (“Tmall”), which aims at facilitating transactions between consumers and industry customers that includes auto dealers, automakers and automotive service providers. The Group identified only one performance obligation that is to provide the industry customers with arranging, decorating and providing the platform for live show. The Group charges a fixed admission fee per live streaming promotion event from its industry customers. As the Group has control of the services and discretion in establishing the price of live streaming promotion admission fee to auto dealers, automakers and other automotive service providers, it is considered to be a principal in accordance with ASC 606. The live streaming promotion events services revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the promotion period of the contract, which is usually one week, when the services are provided.

Other revenue

The Group also commenced its customer referral services from the first quarter of 2020 by referring its industry customers to Beijing Baidu Netcom Science Technology Co., Ltd. (“Baidu”) to use the membership services of a Baidu’s auto content distribution platform. The Group identified only one performance obligation that is to provide referral service to Baidu. The Group charges Baidu a fixed rate commission fee based on the membership fee amount for the services rendered. Revenue is recognized at point-in-time when the industry customers successfully register as a membership of Baidu’s auto content distribution platform.

For the marketing information services, the Group generates consumers’ demand information through its online channels and provides to the industry customers upon consumers’ consent. The Group identified only one performance obligation that is to provide consumer’s demand information to the industry customers. The marketing information service fee is charged based on the quantity of consumers’ demand information delivered. Revenue is recognized at a point in time upon the delivery of such consumers’ demand information.

On January 13, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Longye a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) company who mainly provides subscription and support services to industry customers, including auto dealers, automakers and automotive service providers, with access to cloud services, software licenses and related support and updates during the term of the arrangement. Cloud services allow industry customers to use the Group’s multi-tenant software without taking possession of the software. The Group identified the only one performance obligation that is to provide integrated cloud services to industry customers. The Group initially records the subscription and support services fee as deferred revenue upon receipt and then recognizes the revenue on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is usually from one year to five years. The subscription and support services revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the contract when the services are provided.

i)Revenue recognition (Continued)

Starting from August 2021, the Group provides aftermarket promotion service to support auto dealers’ aftermarket promotion events during a period. The Group identified one performance obligation that is to provide promotion support services to industry customers. The promotion support service revenue is recognized over the period of the contract when the services are provided.

Contract balances

Contract liabilities primarily result from the timing difference between the Group’s satisfaction of performance obligation and the customers’ payment. Substantial all auto show revenue and referral service for commercial bank revenue and SaaS revenue are recognized over time during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023.

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable represent amounts invoiced and revenues recognized prior to invoicing when the Group has satisfied the Group’s performance obligation and has the unconditional rights to payment.

The Group applied a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Group has no material incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers that the Group expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year which need to be recognized as assets.

j)Taxation

Income taxes

Current income taxes are provided on the basis of income/(loss) for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes, in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdictions. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and any tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates or tax laws is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period the change in tax rates or tax laws is enacted. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred income tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

Uncertain tax positions

In order to assess uncertain tax positions, the Group applies a more likely than not threshold and a two-step approach for the tax position measurement and financial statement recognition. Under the two-step approach, 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, 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. The Group recognizes interest and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet and under other expenses in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Group did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023.

The Group evaluates the warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. Warrants recorded as liabilities are recorded at their fair value and remeasured on each reporting date with change in estimated fair value of warrant liability in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

l)Concentrations and Risks

Advertising and promotional service provider

The Group relied on advertising and promotional service providers and their affiliates for advertising and promotional service to support its operations during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023. Total number of advertising and promotional service providers accounting for more than 10% is three and one for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to the concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts and notes receivable. As of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023, all of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held in large reputable financial institutions located in the United States of America or China, which management consider being of high credit quality. Accounts receivable is typically unsecured and is derived from revenue earned from the Company’s businesses.

Major customers

There were three and three customers whose receivable balances exceeded 10% of the total accounts receivable balances of the Group as December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The aggregated percentage of the three and three customers as December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023 was 76% and 69%, respectively.

There were one customer (17%) and nil whose revenue exceed 10% of the total revenue of the Group for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
