NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Business

 

Bon Natural Life Limited (“Bon Natural” or the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is engaged in the research and development, manufacturing and sales of functional active ingredients extracted from natural herb plants which are widely used by manufacturer customers in the functional food, personal care, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The Company sells its products to customers located in both Chinese and international markets.

 

Organizations

 

Bon Natural Life Limited was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands on December 11, 2019.

 

Bon Natural owns 100% equity interest of Tea Essence Limited (“Tea Essence”), an entity incorporated on January 9, 2020 in accordance with the laws and regulations in Hong Kong.

 

Xi’an Cell and Molecule Information Technology Limited. (“Xi’an CMIT”) was formed on April 9, 2020, as a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

 

Bon Natural, Tea Essence, and Xi’an CMIT are currently not engaging in any active business operations and merely acting as holding companies.

 

Prior to the reorganization described below, Mr. Yongwei Hu, the chairman of the board of directors and the chief executive officer of the Company, was the controlling shareholder of Xi’an App-Chem Bio(Tech) Co., Ltd. (“Xi’an App-Chem”), an entity incorporated on April 23, 2006 in accordance with PRC laws. Xi’an App-Chem owns 100% of the equity interests of the following subsidiaries: (1) Shaanxi App-Chem Health Industry Co., Ltd. (“App-Chem Health”) was incorporated on April 17, 2006 in Tongchuan City in accordance with PRC laws; (2), Shaanxi App-Chem Ag-tech Co., Ltd (“App-Chem Ag-tech”) was incorporated on April 19, 2013 in Dali County, Shaanxi Province in accordance with PRC laws; (3) Xi’an Yanhuang TCM Medical Research & Development Co., Ltd (“Xi’an YH”) was incorporated on September 15, 2009 in Xi’an City in accordance with PRC laws; (4) Balikun Tianmei Bio(Tech) Co., Ltd. (“Balikun”) was incorporated on December 16, 2016 in Balikun City in accordance with PRC laws; (5) App-Chem Bio (Tech) (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd. (“App-Chem Guangzhou”) was incorporated on April 27, 2018 in Guangzhou City in accordance with PRC laws and (6) Tongchuan Dietary Therapy Health Technology Co., Ltd. (“Tongchuan DT”) was incorporated on May 22, 2017 in Tongchuan City in accordance with PRC laws.

 

In addition, Xi’an App-Chem also owns majority of the equity interest in the following two entities: Xi’an Dietary Therapy Medical Technology Co., Ltd (“Xi’an DT”) was incorporated on April 24, 2015 in accordance with PRC laws, with 75% equity ownership interest owned by Xi’an App-Chem; Tianjin Yonghexiang Bio(Tech) Co., Ltd. (“Tianjin YHX”) was incorporated on September 16, 2019 in accordance with PRC laws, with 51% equity ownership interest owned by Xi’an App-Chem. On March 11, 2020, Xi’an App-Chem established a new 100% controlled subsidiary, Gansu Baimeikang Bioengineering Co., Ltd. (“Gansu BMK”).

 

On September 27, 2021, the Company disposed Balikun to a third party for RMB 1.00. As Balikun had no operating activity and no material assets, the disposal of Balikun did not constitute discontinued operation.

 

Xi’an App-Chem, together with its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Bon Operating Companies” below.

 

Reorganization

 

A reorganization of our legal structure (“Reorganization”) was completed on May 28, 2020. The reorganization involved the incorporation of Bon Natural Life, Tea Essence and Xi’an CMIT, and entering into certain contractual arrangements between Xi’an CMIT, the shareholders of Bon Operating Companies and the Bon Operating Companies. Consequently, the Company became the ultimate holding company of Tea Essence, Xi’an CMIT and Bon Operating Companies.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION (continued)

 

On May 28, 2020, Xi’an CMIT entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the shareholders of the Bon Operating Companies. These agreements include, Exclusive Service Agreement, Share Pledge Agreement, Proxy Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, Powers of Attorney, Spousal Consent Letter, and Loan Agreement intended to guarantee the exercise of the Exclusive Option Agreements and Spouse Consents (collectively the “VIE Agreements”). Pursuant to the VIE Agreements, Xi’an CMIT has the exclusive right to provide to the Bon Operating Companies consulting services related to business operations including technical and management consulting services. The VIE Agreements are designed to provide Xi’an CMIT with the power, rights, and obligations equivalent in all material respects to those it would possess as the sole equity holder of each of the Bon Operating Companies, including control rights and the rights to the assets, property, and revenue of each of the Bon Operating Companies. As a result of our direct ownership in Xi’an CMIT and the VIE Agreements, we believe that the Bon Operating Companies should be treated as Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810 Consolidation and we are regarded as the primary beneficiary of our VIEs. We treat our VIEs as our consolidated entities under U.S. GAAP. The Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries and its VIEs, is effectively controlled by the same shareholders before and after the Reorganization and therefore the Reorganization is considered as a recapitalization of entities under common control. The consolidation of the Company, its subsidiaries, and its VIEs has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the aforementioned transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Upon the completion of the Reorganization, the Company has subsidiaries in countries and jurisdictions in the PRC and Hong Kong.

 

On September 8, 2021, Xi’an Youpincui Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Xi’an Youpincui”) was formed as a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) in the PRC. Tea Essence owns 100% equity interest in Xi’an Youpincui. Xi’an Youpincui currently is not engaging in any active business operations and merely acting as an investment holding company.

 

On June 28, 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 2,200,000 ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share at a public offering price of $5.00 per share, and the Company’s ordinary shares started to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “BON” since June 24, 2021. On July 2, 2021, the underwriters exercised its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 330,000 shares, par value US$0.0001 per share at the price of $5.00 per share. Gross proceeds of the Company’s IPO, including the proceeds from the sale of the over-allotment shares, totalled $12.65 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and other related expenses, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $11.3 million.

 

Terminating the VIE agreements for corporate restructuring

 

Due to PRC legal restrictions on foreign ownership in companies that engage in online sales China, the Company originally carried out its business through Xi’an App-Chem, a domestic PRC company holding a value-added telecommunications license, through a variable interest entity structure, because foreign investment in the value-added telecommunication services industry in China is extensively regulated and subject to numerous restrictions. However, the Company’s online sales have historically generated minimal revenues. On September 28, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a restructuring of the Company’s corporate structure to terminate the original VIE contractual agreements, to convert Xi’an App-Chem from a PRC domestic company into a Sino-foreign joint venture, and to transfer 100% of the ownership interests in Xi’an App-Chem from its original shareholders to Xi’an CMIT and Xi’an Youpincui. Effective November 1, 2021, the Company completed the reorganization of its corporate structure in the PRC and are the indirect sole shareholder of Xi’an App-Chem. Xi’an App-Chem is wholly-owned by two WOFEs Xi’an CMIT and Xi’an Youpincui. Each of the WOFEs are in turn wholly-owned by Tea Essence, the Company’s direct wholly-owned subsidiary in Hong Kong. The termination of the VIE agreements as described above does not adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations because the Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, are effectively controlled by the same shareholders before and after the restructuring. The restructuring is therefore considered to be a recapitalization of entities under common control. Following the corporate restructuring, the value-added telecommunication license held by Xi’an App-Chem has been revoked.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Uses of estimates

 

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), management makes 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 financial statements. and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the allowance for estimated uncollectible receivables, realizability of advance to suppliers, inventory valuations, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, fair value of stock-based compensation, revenue recognition and realization of deferred tax assets. The inputs into the Company’s judgments and estimates consider the economic implications of COVID-19 on the Company’s critical and significant accounting estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The main operation of the Company is located in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.

 

The development and commercialization of natural and healthy extracts and compounds products is highly competitive, and the industry currently is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, significant competition and a strong emphasis on intellectual property. The Company may face competition with respect to its current and future pharmaceutical product candidates from major pharmaceutical companies in China.

 

The Company’s operations may be further affected by the ongoing outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic., A COVID-19 resurgence could negatively affect the execution of customer contracts, the collection of customer payments, or disruption of the Company’s supply chain. The continued uncertainties associated with COVID-19 may cause the Company’s revenue and cash flows to underperform in the next 12 months. The extent of the future impact of COVID-19 is still highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are released.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash includes currency on hand and deposits held by banks that can be added or withdrawn without limitation. The Company maintains most of its bank accounts in the PRC. Cash balances in bank accounts in PRC are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs.

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

The Company determines the adequacy of reserves for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis and historical collection trend. The Company establishes a provision for doubtful receivables when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. The allowance is based on management’s best estimate of specific losses on individual exposures, as well as a provision on historical trends of collections. Actual amounts received may differ from management’s estimate of credit worthiness and the economic environment. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the collection is not probable, Nil and $98,851 uncollectable account receivable was written-off during the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Allowance for uncollectable balances amounted to $15,145 and $14,691 as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Advances to Suppliers, net

 

Advances to suppliers consist of balances paid to suppliers for inventory raw materials and construction materials associated with the Company’s construction-in-progress projects that have not been provided or received. Advances to suppliers are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers the assets to be impaired if the collectability of the advance becomes doubtful. The Company uses the aging method to estimate the allowance for unrealizable balances. In addition, at each reporting date, the Company generally determines the adequacy of allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating all available information, and then records specific allowances for those advances based on the specific facts and circumstances. As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, no allowance for doubtful account was recorded.

 

Inventories, net

 

Inventories are stated at net realizable value using weighted average method. Costs include the cost of raw materials, freight, direct labor and related production overhead. Any excess of the cost over the net realizable value of each item of inventories is recognized as a provision for diminution in the value of inventories. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less any costs to complete and sell products. The Company evaluates inventories on a quarterly basis for its net realizable value adjustments, and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value based on various factors including aging, expiration dates, as applicable, taking into consideration historical and expected future product sales. The Company recorded inventory reserve of $150,640 and $147,960 as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

 

Short-term investments

 

The Company’s short-term investments consist of wealth management financial products purchased from PRC banks, which can be redeemed at any time. The banks invest the Company’s fund in certain financial instruments including money market funds, bonds or mutual funds, with floating interest rates. The carrying values of the Company’s short-term investments approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities. The interest earned is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income over the contractual term of these investments. As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, short-term investments consisted of the following:

 

   March 31,

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Investment income generated from short-term investments amounted to $12,419 and Nil for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount is included in other income in unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

  Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
  Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
  Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

 

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s cash, short-term investment, accounts receivable, inventories, advance to suppliers, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, short-term bank loans, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, taxes payable and due to related parties, approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021 based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.

 

The Company believes that the carrying amount of long-term loans approximates fair value at March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021 based on the terms of the borrowings and current market rates as the rates of the borrowings are reflective of the current market rates.

 

Property, plant and equipment, net

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their expected useful lives, as follows:

 

   Useful life
Buildings  20 years
Machinery and equipment  510 years
Automobiles  8 years
Office and electric equipment  35 years

 

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in other income or expenses.

 

Construction-in-Progress (“CIP”)

 

Construction-in-progress represents property and buildings under construction and consists of construction expenditures, equipment procurement, and other direct costs attributable to the construction. Construction-in-progress is not depreciated. Upon completion and ready for intended use, construction-in-progress is reclassified to the appropriate category within property, plant and equipment.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Intangible assets, net

 

The Company’s intangible assets primarily include two land use rights. A land use right in the PRC represents an exclusive right to occupy, use and develop a piece of land during the contractual term of the land use right. The cost of a land use right is usually paid in one lump sum at the date the right is granted. The prepayment usually covers the entire period of the land use right. The lump sum advance payment is capitalized and recorded as land use right and then charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period of the right, which is normally 50 years.

 

The Company acquired the first land use right of 4.1 acres located at Tongchuan City, Shaanxi Province of China at cost of approximately $0.2 million in 2011. The Company is now constructing a new manufacturing plant on this land and the construction of Tongchuan CIP Project is expected to be fully completed and put into production by December 2022. On May 10, 2021, the Company acquired another land use right of 8.2 acres at cost of approximately $0.3 million, through a government organized auction bidding in Yumen City, Gansu Province of China. The Company is now constructing a new manufacturing plant on this land and the construction of Yumen CIP Project is expected to be completed by October 2022 (see Note 8).

 

Impairment of long-lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, land use rights and long-term investment, are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset or asset group to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying value of an asset or asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset or asset group. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Assets to be disposed are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021.

 

Leases

 

ASC 842 requires that lessees recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities calculated based on the present value of lease payments for all lease agreements with terms that are greater than twelve months. ASC 842 distinguishes leases as either a finance lease or an operating lease that affects how the leases are measured and presented in the statement of operations and statement of cash flows.

 

For operating leases, the Company calculated ROU assets and lease liabilities based on the present value of the remaining lease payments as of the date of adoption. There were no changes in the Company’s capital lease portfolio, which are now titled “finance leases” under ASC 842.

 

Upon the adoption of the new guidance on October 1, 2020, the Company recognized operating lease right of use assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $0.2 million. The remaining balance of lease liabilities are presented within current portion of operating lease liabilities and the non-current portion of operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 14).

 

On December 25, 2020, the Company’s subsidiary, Xi’an App-Chem (the “Lessee”) entered into a sale and leaseback agreement with Taizhongyin Finance Lease (Suzhou) Ltd. (“the Lessor”) and sold part of its plant machines with carrying value of RMB 2 million (approximately $0.3 million) to the lessor and then leases them back from the lessor within two years. Pursuant to the terms of the contract, the Company is required to pay to the lessor monthly lease payment and interest, and is entitled to obtain the ownership of these machinery and equipment at a nominal price upon the expiration of the lease. Management deemed the arrangement as a finance lease (see Note 13).

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been translated into US$.

 

Assets and liabilities accounts are translated using the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the results of operations.

 

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

 

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in creating the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

 

   March 31, 2022   March 31, 2021   September 30, 2021 
Period-end spot rate   US$1=RMB6.3431    US$1=RMB6.5565    US$1=RMB6.4580 
Average rate   US$1=RMB6.3712    US$1=RMB6.5541    US$1=RMB6.5095 

 

Revenue recognition

 

To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps : (i) identify the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

In accordance to ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it transfers its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. The Company accounts for the revenue generated from sales of its products to its customers, in which the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions, is subject to inventory risk, has latitude in establishing prices, and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide customers the specified goods. All of the Company’s contracts have single performance obligation as the promise is to transfer the individual goods to customers, and there are no other separately identifiable promises in the contracts.

 

The Company’s revenue streams are recognized at a point in time when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at delivery. The Company’s products are sold with no right of return and the Company does not provide other credits or sales incentive to customers. The Company’s sales are net of value added tax (“VAT”) and business tax and surcharges collected on behalf of tax authorities in respect of product sales.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

 

Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit. The Company did not have contract assets as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021.

 

The Company’s contract liability primarily relates to unsatisfied performance obligations when payment has been received from customers before the Company’s products are delivered, and are recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets. Costs of fulfilling customers’ purchase orders, such as shipping, handling and delivery, which occur prior to the transfer of control, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense when incurred. Deferred revenue amounted to $673,974 and $1,096,101 as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. Revenue included in the beginning balance of deferred revenue and recognized in the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $825,424 and $403,399, respectively.

 

Disaggregation of Revenues

 

The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by product types, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are disclosed in Note 19 of the unaudited condensed consolidation financial statements.

 

Research and development expenses

 

The Company expenses all internal research and development costs as incurred, which primarily comprise employee costs, internal and external costs related to execution of studies, including manufacturing costs, facility costs of the research center, and amortization and depreciation to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment used in the research and development activities. For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, research and development expense were approximately $164,675 and $106,998, respectively.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling expenses represents primarily costs of payroll, benefits, commissions for sales representatives and advertising expenses. General and administrative expenses represent primarily payroll and benefits costs for administrative employees, rent and operating costs of office premises, depreciation and amortization of office facilities, professional fees and other administrative expenses.

 

Advertising expense

 

Advertising expenses primarily relate to promotion of the Company’s brand name and products through outdoor billboards and social media such as Weibo and WeChat. Advertising expenses are included in selling expenses in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Advertising expenses amounted to $27,774 and $20,384 for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Government subsidies

BON NATURAL LIFE LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

The Company recognizes government subsidies as other operating income when they are received because they are not subject to any past or future conditions, there are no performance conditions or conditions of use, and they are not subject to future refunds. Government subsidies received and recognized as other operating income totalled $542,256 and $446,910 for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred 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 tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

An uncertain tax position is recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had income tax payable of approximately $1.5 million, primarily related to the unpaid income tax in China. The Company initially expected to settle the income tax liabilities in May 2021 when the Company filed its 2020 annual income tax return with local tax authority. However, due to limited cash on hand at the time of filing the 2020 annual tax return, the Company further negotiated with the local tax authority and obtained an approval from local tax authority to extend the income tax liability settlement date from May 2021 to December 2021 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. In December 2021, due to recent COVID-19 resurgence which caused strict city lockdown in Xi’an where the Company is headquartered, the Company re-negotiated with local tax authorities and obtained an approval in accordance with the notices issued by the State Administration of Taxation to encourage micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in manufacturing industry, to further extend the tax liability settlement date from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. During the six months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $785,853 income tax in March 2022, and re-negotiated with local tax authorities to further extend the tax liability settlement date from June 30, 2022 to December 31, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. The Company expects to fully settle the remaining $1.5 million unpaid income tax liabilities with local tax authority by December 31, 2022.

 

The Company’s subsidiaries in China are subject to the income tax laws of the PRC. No significant income was generated outside the PRC for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2020. As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, all of the Company’s tax returns of its PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

 

Value added tax (“VAT”)

 

Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates range up to 17% (starting from May 1, 2018, VAT rate was lowered to 16%, and starting from April 1, 2019, VAT rate was further lowered to 13%), depending on the type of products sold. The VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing or acquiring its finished products. The Company recorded a VAT payable or recoverable net of VAT payments in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

For export sales, VAT is not imposed on gross sales price, and the VAT related to purchasing raw materials is refunded after the export is completed.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had VAT tax payable of approximately $1.7 million, primarily related to the unpaid VAT tax in China. The Company initially expected to settle the unpaid VAT tax liabilities before September 30, 2021. However, in May 2021, the Company further negotiated with the local tax authority and obtained an approval notice from local tax authority to extend the settlement date from September 2021 to December 2021 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. In December 2021, due to recent COVID-19 resurgence which caused strict city lockdown in Xi’an where the Company is headquartered, the Company re-negotiated with local tax authorities and obtained an approval in accordance with the notices issued by the State Administration of Taxation to encourage micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in manufacturing industry, to further extend the tax liability settlement date from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. The Company paid $2.0 million VAT tax in March 2022, and re-negotiated with local tax authorities to further extend the tax liability settlement date from June 30, 2022 to December 31, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. The Company expects to fully settle the remaining $1.7 million unpaid VAT tax liabilities with local tax authority by December 31, 2022.

 

Employee Defined Contribution Plan

 

The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC participate in a government-mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan pursuant to which pension, work-related injury benefits, maternity insurance, medical insurance, unemployment benefit and housing fund are provided to eligible full-time employees. The relevant labor regulations require the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC to pay the local labor and social welfare authorities monthly contributions based on the applicable benchmarks and rates stipulated by the local government. The contributions to the plan are expensed as incurred. Employee social security and welfare benefits included as expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income amounted to $33,449 and $18,334 for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Share Based Compensation

 

On June 23, 2020, the Company entered into consulting service agreements with three third-party consultants (collectively the “Consultants”), pursuant to which, the Consultants will provide public listing related consulting services to the Company in connection with the Company’s IPO. The Company issued 633,333 of its ordinary shares to the Consultants in lieu of cash payment for such services. The 633,333 shares are valued at $633,333. Such service fee is amortized over the service period of one year from June 23, 2020 to June 22, 2021 (see Note 16).

 

The Company applied ASC 718 and related interpretations in accounting for measuring the cost of share-based compensation over the period during which the consultants are required to provide services in exchange for the issued shares. Such share-based compensation has been fully amortized because the consultants have completed their services when the Company closed its IPO in June 2021. For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, Nil and $316,668 share-based compensation expenses were recognized.

 

Pursuant to the Director Service Agreements with the Company’s independent directors and following the completion of the Company’s IPO, on June 23, 2021, the Company granted stock options to three independent directors to purchase an aggregate of 36,000 shares of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value of $0.0001 per share, at exercise price of $0.01 per share, as part of the compensation to these independent directors. The stock options granted shall vest in equal monthly installments for 12 months, commencing on July 1, 2021 until June 30, 2022. Share-based compensation awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses using the straight-line method over the service period (see Note 16).

Earnings per Share

 

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. For the six months ended March 31, 2022, 36,000 option shares and 50,600 underwriter warrants were considered in the diluted EPS calculation using treasury stock method. There were no diluted shares for the six months ended March 31, 2021.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

Comprehensive income

 

Comprehensive income consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in RMB to US$ is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

 

Statement of Cash Flows

 

In accordance with ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows”, cash flows from the Company’s operations are formulated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company uses the management approach in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions about the allocation of resources of the segment and the assessment of its performance in determining the Company’s reportable operating segments. Management has determined that the Company has one operating segment (See Note 17).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 was subsequently amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2020-02. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 and its amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. For all other entities, this guidance and its amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10, “Codification Improvements to Subtopic 205-10, presentation of financial statements”. The amendments in this Update improve the codification by ensuring that all guidance that requires or provides an option for an entity to provide information in the notes to financial statements is codified in the disclosure section of the codification. That reduce the likelihood that the disclosure requirement would be missed. ASU 2020-10 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2022. Early application of the amendments is permitted for any annual or interim period for which financial statements are available to be issued. The amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. An entity should apply the amendments at the beginning of the period that includes the adoption date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3— LIQUIDITY

 

As reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is currently constructing two new manufacturing plants. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had future minimum capital expenditure commitment on its construction-in-progress (“CIP”) project of approximately $1.0 million within the next twelve months (see Note 8). The Company also had large unpaid tax liabilities of approximately $3.3 million, which are expected to be settled with local tax authorities within one year. Furthermore, the ongoing outbreak of COVID-19 may continue to negatively impact the Company’s business operations. A resurgence could negatively affect the Company’s ability to fulfil customer sales orders and collect customer payments timely, or disrupt the Company’s supply chain. As a result, there is a possibility that the Company’s revenue and cash flows may underperform in the next 12 months.

 

In assessing its liquidity, management monitors and analyzes the Company’s cash on-hand, its ability to generate sufficient revenue sources in the future, and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. In June 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering and received net proceeds of approximately $11.3 million (see Note 1 and Note 15).

 

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash on hand of $1.6 million. The Company also had outstanding accounts receivable of approximately $7.5 million, of which approximately $7.47 million or 99.2% has been subsequently collected as of the date of this filing. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding bank loans of approximately $4.5 million from several PRC banks (including short-term bank loans of $1.6 million, current portion of long-term bank loans of approximately $1.8 million and long-term loan of $1.1 million). Management expects that it would be able to renew all of its existing bank loans upon their maturity based on past experience and the Company’s good credit history. In addition to the current borrowings, from December 2020 to December 2021, the Company secured an aggregate of $6.5 million (RMB 41 million) lines of credit with PRC banks as working capital loan (including $2.0 million line of credit with Bohai Bank for one year, $2.5 million line of credit with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank for one year and $2.0 million line of credit with Qishang Bank for three years.) (see Note 10). As of the date of this filing, the Company had borrowed $2.0 million (RMB 13 million) out of these lines of credit and had the availability to borrow additional maximum loans of $4.4 million (RMB 28 million) under these lines of credit before December 2023.

 

Based on the current operating plan, management believes that the above-mentioned measures, including cash on hand of $1.6 million and the $4.4 million unused line of credit, collectively will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to settle the tax liabilities, to meet its future liquidity and capital expenditure requirement on the CIP projects for at least 12 months from the date the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

NOTE 7— ACQUISITION DEPOSIT

 

On July 6, 2021, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a New York based consulting firm (“the consulting firm”), pursuant to which, the consulting firm will help the Company to (i) identify appropriate business partner candidates in New York or California in order to jointly establish a research and development center in the United States for future new product development; (ii) find opportunities to establish business relationship with U.S based companies with OEM demand and utilize the Company’s manufacturing strength and capability to manufacture healthcare ingredient products for U.S companies under the OEM arrangement and (iii) help the Company to purchase or lease appropriate commercial facilities in the U.S., etc. The consulting firm will be compensated with $30,000 in exchange for performing these designated consulting services. Given the fact that the Company lacks of credit history in the U.S, the Company is required to make a deposit of $1.5 million to the consulting firm. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has made deposit of $1 million to the consulting firm and recorded it as acquisition deposit on the balance sheets. No additional deposit was ever made during the six months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Due to recent COVID-19 resurgence in Xi’an City and government mandatory quarantine and city lockdown, on January 20, 2022, the Company and the consulting firm signed a supplemental agreement to lower down the required deposit from original $1.5 million to $1 million. As a result, the Company does not have further obligation to make additional deposit to the consulting firm.

 

As of March 31, 2022, the consulting firm has delivered a potential acquisition target to the Company, which is a small R&D firm developing anti-aging formulas. The consulting firm is now helping the Company to perform due diligence work and the Company is now negotiating the detailed terms with this acquisition target. The intended acquisition is expected to be completed around March 2023. The Company may, at its discretion, terminate the consulting agreement and request for full refund of the deposit anytime if the due diligence work fails or the final acquisition terms not reached by both parties.

NOTE 12 — TAXES

 

(a) Corporate Income Taxes (“CIT”)

 

Cayman Islands

 

Under the current tax laws of the Cayman Islands, Bon Natural Life Limited (“Bon Natural Life”) is not subject to tax on its income or capital gains. In addition, no Cayman Islands withholding tax will be imposed upon the payment of dividends by the Company to its shareholders.

 

Hong Kong

 

Tea Essence Limited (“Tea Essence”) is incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to profit taxes in Hong Kong at a rate of 16.5%. However, Tea Essence did not generate any assessable profits derived from Hong Kong sources in the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, and accordingly no provision for Hong Kong profits tax has been made in these periods.

 

PRC

 

Under PRC CIT Law, domestic enterprises and Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIEs”) are usually subject to a unified 25% enterprise income tax rate while preferential tax rates, tax holidays and even tax exemption may be granted on a case-by-case basis by local government as preferential tax treatment to High and New Technology Enterprises (“HNTEs”).

 

Under this preferential tax treatment, HNTEs are entitled to an income tax rate of 15%, subject to a requirement that they re-apply for their HNTE status every three years. The Company’s subsidiary, Xi’an App-Chem was approved as a HNTE and is entitled to a reduced income tax rate of 15% beginning October 18, 2017, which is valid for three years. In December 2020, Xi’an App-Chem successfully renewed its HNTE Certificate with local government and will continue to enjoy the reduced income tax rate of 15% for another three years by December 1, 2023.

 

CIT is typically governed by the local tax authority in PRC. Each local tax authority at times may grant tax holidays to local enterprises as a way to encourage entrepreneurship and stimulate local economy. The corporate income taxes for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were reported at a blended reduced rate as a result of Xi’an App-chem being approved as a HNTE and enjoying a 15% reduced income tax rate, but subsidiaries of Xi’an App-chem are subject to a 25% income tax rate. The impact of the tax holidays noted above decreased foreign taxes by $375,177 and $302,123 for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The benefit of the tax holidays on net income per share (basic and diluted) $0.04 and $0.05 for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTE 12 — TAXES (continued)

 

A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be utilized in the future. The Company has subsidiaries in the PRC, among which 7 entities, including Xi’an CMIT, App-Chem Ag-tech, App-Chem Guangzhou, Tongchuan DT, Xi’an DT, Tianjin YHX and Gansu BMK, reported recurring operating losses since their inception and the chances for these subsidiaries that suffered recurring losses in prior period to become profitable in the foreseeable near future and to utilize their net operating loss carry forwards were remote. Accordingly, the Company provided valuation allowance of $256,381 and $215,354 for the deferred tax assets of these subsidiaries as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

 

As of March 31, 2022, all of the Company’s tax returns of its PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

 

(b) Taxes payable

 

Taxes payable consist of the following:

 

  

March 31,

   September 30, 2021 
   (Unaudited)     
Income tax payable  $1,498,334   $1,691,007

Other taxes   101,765    98,479 
Total taxes payable  $3,328,986   $5,052,018 

 

As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, Company had accrued tax liabilities of approximately $3.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively, mostly related to the unpaid value added tax and income tax in China. According to PRC taxation regulation, if tax has not been fully paid, tax authorities may impose tax and late payment penalties within three years. In practice, since all of the taxes are collected by local tax authorities, the local tax authority to the Company is typically more flexible and willing to provide incentives or settlements with local small and medium-size businesses to relieve their burden and to stimulate the local economy.

 

The Company initially expected to settle the unpaid income tax liabilities in May 2021 when the 2020 annual income tax return is to be filed with local tax authority, and settle the unpaid VAT tax liabilities before September 30, 2021. In May 2021, the Company negotiated with local tax authorities and submitted a settlement extension application in accordance with the notices issued by local government to encourage enterprises to conduct public offerings. For the unpaid income tax and VAT tax liabilities, the Company obtained an approval from local tax authority to extend the tax liability settlement date from May 2021 to December 31, 2021. In December 2021, due to recent COVID-19 resurgence which caused strict city lockdown in Xi’an where the Company is headquartered, the Company re-negotiated with local tax authorities and submitted a settlement extension application in accordance with the notices issued by the State Administration of Taxation to encourage micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in manufacturing industry. For the unpaid income tax and VAT tax liabilities, the Company obtained an approval from local tax authority to further extend the tax liability settlement date from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. The Company paid $785,853 income tax and $2.0 million VAT tax in March 2022, and re-negotiated with local tax authorities to further extend the tax liability settlement date from June 30, 2022 to December 31, 2022 without interest and penalty during this extended time period. The Company expects to fully settle the remaining $3.3 million unpaid tax liabilities with local tax authority by December 31, 2022. To the extent the Company is unable to settle its tax liabilities as scheduled, or interest and penalties on unpaid tax liabilities assessed by tax authorities greatly exceed management’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and operating results may be negatively impacted.

Ordinary Shares

 

Bon Natural Life Limited (“Bon Natural Life”, or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands on December 11, 2019. The authorized number of ordinary shares was 50,000,000 shares with par value of US$0.0001 and 15,500,000 shares were issued.

 

On June 17, 2020, the Company’s shareholders approved a reverse split of the outstanding ordinary shares at a ratio of 1-for-3 shares (the “Reverse Split”), which led to a redemption of 10,333,333 shares out of the 15,500,000 ordinary shares previously issued to existing shareholders. The Reverse Split did not change the authorized number of ordinary shares and only changed the issued and outstanding ordinary shares. The Reverse Split took effective on June 24, 2020. As a result of this reverse split, there were 5,166,667 shares issued and outstanding. The issuance of these 5,166,667 shares is considered as a part of the Reorganization of the Company, which was retroactively applied as if the transaction occurred at the beginning of the period presented.

 

On June 23, 2020, the Company entered into consulting service agreements with three third-party consultants (collectively the “Consultants”), pursuant to which, the Consultants will provide public listing related consulting services to the Company in connection with the Company’s intended IPO effort. Such consulting services include but not limit to market research and feasibility study, business plan drafting, reorganization, pre-listing education and tutoring, reorganization, legal and audit firm recommendation and coordination, investor referral and pre-listing equity financing source identification and recommendations, and independent directors and audit committee candidate’s recommendation, etc. The Company issued 633,333 of its ordinary shares to the Consultants in lieu of cash payment for such services. The 633,333 shares are valued at $633,333. Such service fee is amortized over the service period from June 23, 2020 to June 22, 2021.

 

Share-based compensation to consultants related to services associated with the Company’s IPO has been fully amortized as the Company closed its IPO in June 2021. For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, $Nil and $316,668 were recognized as share-based compensation expense based on services rendered, respectively.

NOTE 15— SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (continued)

 

On June 28, 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 2,200,000 ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share at a public offering price of $5.00 per share, and the Company’s ordinary shares started to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “BON” since June 24, 2021. On July 2, 2021, the underwriters exercised its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 330,000 shares, par value US$0.0001 per share at the price of $5.00 per share.

 

As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had 8,350,381 and 8,330,000 shares of ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

Underwriter warrants

 

In connection with the Company’s IPO, the Company also agreed to issue to the underwriters and to register herein warrants to purchase up to a total of 101,200 ordinary shares of the Company (equal to 4% of the total number of Ordinary Shares sold in the IPO) (the “Underwriter Warrants”).

 

These warrants have warrant term of five years, with an exercise price of $5.00 per share (equal to 100% of the Company’s IPO offering price of $5.00 per share). The Underwriter Warrants may be purchased in cash or via cashless exercise, will be exercisable for five (5) years, and will terminate on the fifth anniversary of the date thereafter.

 

The warrants are exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, commencing 180 days from the closing of the IPO. Management determined that these warrants meet the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815-40 because they are indexed to its own stock. On October 1, 2021, the underwriters elected to exercise 50,600 shares of warrants with cashless exercise, which resulted in 20,381 ordinary shares issued with no proceeds received by the Company from this transaction. As of March 31, 2022, 50,600 underwriter warrants were fully issued and outstanding.

 

On July 13, 2022, the underwriters elected to exercise the remaining 50,600 shares of warrants with cashless exercise, which resulted in 31,845 ordinary shares issued with no proceeds received by the Company from this transaction.

 

A summary of warrants activity for the years ended March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was as follows:

The Company’s subsidiary, Xi’an App-chem, owns majority of the equity interest in the following two entities: Xi’an Dietary Therapy Medical Technology Co., Ltd (“Xi’an DT”) and Tianjin Yonghexiang Bio(Tech) Co., Ltd. (“Tianjin YHX”) Non-controlling interests represent minority shareholders’ 25% ownership interests in Xi’an DT and 49% ownership interest in Tianjin YHX. The following table reconciles the non-controlling interest as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021:

As of March 31, 2022  $476,732   $29,819   $506,551 

 

Statutory reserve and restricted net assets

 

Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the Company’s PRC subsidiaries from transferring a portion of their net assets, equivalent to their statutory reserves and their share capital, to the Company in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Only PRC entities’ accumulated profits may be distributed as dividends to the Company without the consent of a third party.

 

The Company is required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, comprising the statutory surplus reserve and the discretionary surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the statutory surplus reserve are required to be at least 10% of the after-tax net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s registered capital. Appropriations to the discretionary surplus reserve are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The statutory reserve may be applied against prior year losses, if any, and may be used for general business expansion and production or increase in registered capital, but are not distributable as cash dividends.

 

The payment of dividends by entities organized in China is subject to limitations, procedures and formalities. Regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. The results of operations reflected in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S GAAP differ from those in the statutory financial statements of the WFOE and its subsidiaries. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company out of China is subject to examination by the banks designated by State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

 

In light of the foregoing restrictions, the Company’s WFOE Xi’an CMIT and subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer their net assets to the Company. Foreign exchange and other regulations in the PRC may further restrict the WFOE and its subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances.

 

As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the restricted amounts as determined pursuant to PRC statutory laws totaled $1,050,721, and total restricted net assets amounted to $16,681,807 and $16,591,987, respectively.

NOTE 16 - SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

On June 23, 2020, the Company entered into consulting service agreements with three third-party consultants (collectively the “Consultants”), pursuant to which, the Consultants will provide public listing related consulting services to the Company in connection with the Company’s intended IPO effort. The Company issued 633,333 of its ordinary shares to the Consultants in lieu of cash payment for such services. The 633,333 shares are valued at $633,333. Such service fee had been amortized over the service period from June 23, 2020 to June 22, 2021.

 

The Company applied ASC 718 and related interpretations in accounting for measuring the cost of share-based compensation over the period during which the consultants are required to provide services in exchange for the issued shares. For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, Nil and $316,668 share-based compensation expenses were recognized and capitalized as part of the deferred initial public offering costs, respectively, then charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO, as the consultants’ services directly related to the Company’s intended IPO. 

 

Pursuant to the Director Service Agreements with the Company’s independent directors and following the completion of the Company’s IPO, on June 23, 2021, the Company granted stock options to three independent directors to purchase an aggregate of 36,000 shares of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value of $0.0001 per share, at exercise price of $0.01 per share, as part of the compensation to these independent directors. The stock options granted shall vest in equal monthly installments for 12 months, commencing on July 1, 2021 until June 30, 2022. Share-based compensation awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses using the straight-line method over the service period. The aggregate fair value of the options granted to independent directors was $179,640. The fair value has been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: market value of underlying ordinary shares of $5.0 per share; risk free rate of 4.35%; expected term of 1 year; exercise price of the options of $0.01; volatility of 71.1%; and expected future dividends of Nil.

 

For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, $89,820 and Nil stock option expenses were recognized and charged to General and Administrative Expenses, respectively.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activities:

 

   Number of options   Weighted Average Exercise Price   Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term   Fair Value

For purposes of the above test, restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries shall mean that amount of the Company’s proportionate share of net assets of consolidated subsidiaries (after intercompany eliminations) which as of the end of the most recent fiscal year may not be transferred to the parent company by subsidiaries in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends without the consent of a third party.

 

The financial information of the parent company has been prepared using the same accounting policies as set out in the Company’s consolidated financial statements except that the parent company used the equity method to account for investment in its subsidiaries. Such investment is presented on the condensed balance sheets as “Investment in subsidiaries” and the respective profit or loss as “Equity in earnings of subsidiaries” on the condensed statements of comprehensive income.

 

The footnote disclosures contain supplemental information relating to the operations of the Company and, as such, these statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
