The VIE arrangements

PRC regulations limit direct foreign ownership of business entities providing value-added telecommunications services, online advertising services and internet services in the PRC where certain licenses are required for the provision of such services. Although the Company no longer operates businesses requiring the VIE, historically, the Company provided online advertising, internet value-added services (“IVAS”), and internet finance services through its VIE, Qianxiang Tiancheng, which is referred to as the “VIE”.

Qianxiang Shiji (“WFOE”), the Company’s Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise, entered into a series of contractual arrangements, including: (1) Power of Attorney; (2) Business Operation Agreements; (3) Exclusive Equity Option Agreement; (4) Spousal Consent Agreement; (5) Exclusive Technical and Consulting Services Agreement; (6) Intellectual Property Licenses Agreement; (7) Loan Agreements, and (8) Equity Interest Pledge Agreement with the VIE that enable the Company to (1) have power to direct the activities that most significantly affects the economic performance of the VIE, and (2) receive the economic benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, the WFOE is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE and has consolidated the VIE’s financial results of operations, assets and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In making the conclusion that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company believes the Company’s rights under the terms of the exclusive option agreement and power of attorney are substantive as they relate to operating matters, which provide the Company with a substantive kick-out right.

Table of Contents

More specifically, the Company believes the terms of the contractual agreements are valid, binding, and enforceable under PRC laws and regulations currently in effect. In particular, the Company believes that the minimum amount of consideration permitted by the applicable PRC law to exercise the exclusive option does not represent a financial barrier or disincentive for the Company to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement. A simple majority vote of the Company’s board of directors is required to pass a resolution to exercise the Company’s rights under the exclusive option agreement, for which the consent from Mr. Joe Chen, who holds the most voting interests in the Company and is also the Company’s chairman and CEO, is not required. The Company’s rights under the exclusive option agreement give the Company the power to control the shareholders of the VIE and thus the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. In addition, the Company’s rights under powers of attorney also reinforce the Company’s abilities to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. The Company also believes that this ability to exercise control ensures that the VIE will continue to execute and renew service agreements that benefit the Company, currently largely comprised of Research and Development services to the Company’s SaaS businesses. By charging service fees at the sole discretion of the Company, and by ensuring that service agreements are executed and renewed indefinitely, the Company has the right to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from the VIE.

The VIE and its subsidiaries hold the requisite licenses and permits necessary to conduct the Company’s business in PRC under the current business arrangements.

The following financial statement balances and amounts of the Company’s VIE were included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions between the offshore companies, WFOE, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries (in thousands). As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the balance of the amounts payable by the VIE and its subsidiaries to the WFOE related to the service fees were nil.

There are no consolidated VIE assets that are collateral for the VIE obligations and can only be used to settle the VIE obligations. There are no creditors (or beneficial interest holders) of the VIE that have recourse to the general credit of the Company or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. However, if the VIE ever needs financial support, the Company or its subsidiaries may, at its option and subject to statutory limits and restrictions, provide financial support to its VIE through loans to the shareholders of the VIE or entrustment loans to the VIE.

Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the VIE from transferring a portion of its net assets, equivalent to the balance of its statutory reserve and its share capital, to the Company in the form of loans and advances or cash dividends.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s consolidated statements of operations of prior period to conform to current year reporting classifications.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the financial statements of Moatable, Inc., its subsidiaries, its VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of share-based compensation awards, the realization of deferred income tax assets, impairment of long-lived assets, and impairment of long-term investments.

Fair value

Fair value is 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 Company 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.

Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1-inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

Level 2-inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3-inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Restricted Cash

On August 28, 2023, the Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with U.S. Bank National Association to enhance directors and officers’ insurance coverage. The Company set aside $5 million restricted cash into an escrow account with U.S. Bank as required by the contractual agreement with U.S. Bank National Association.

Accounts receivable and allowance for credit loss

Accounts receivable are stated at the original amount less an allowance for credit loss. Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when the Company has provided services to its customers and when its right to consideration is unconditional. The Company evaluates its accounts receivable for expected credit losses on a regular basis. The Company maintains an estimated allowance for credit losses to reduce its accounts receivable to the amount that it believes will be collected. The Company considers factors in assessing the collectability of its receivables, such as the age of the amounts due, the customer’s payment history, credit-worthiness, current market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other specific circumstances related to the accounts. The Company adjusts the allowance percentage periodically when there are significant differences between estimated bad debts and actual bad debts. If there is strong evidence indicating that the accounts receivable is likely to be unrecoverable, the Company also makes specific allowance in the period in which a loss is determined to be probable. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company recorded no allowance for credit loss for accounts receivable.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the service has been transferred to the customer, generally upon delivery to a customer. The contracts have a fixed contract price and revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for providing services. The Company collects taxes from customers on behalf of governmental authorities at the time of sale. These taxes are accounted for on a net basis and are not included in revenues and cost of revenues. The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period is less than one year. These costs are recorded within selling and marketing expenses. The Company does not have any significant financing payment terms as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) prescribes a five-step model that includes: (1) identify the contract; (2) identify the performance obligations; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company generated the majority of revenue from SaaS services.

SaaS revenue: SaaS revenue mainly includes the revenue generated from the subscription and advertising services provided by Lofty and Trucker Path. The Company recognizes revenue for subscription services over the life of the subscription. For Lofty’s advertising service, the Company acts as an agent to place advertisements on third-party websites or platforms. For Trucker Path’s advertising service, the Company acts as principal to place advertisements on Trucker Path’s platform. The Company recognizes revenue for advertising services over the advertising periods.

Other services: Other services mainly include revenue from the provision of back-office services to Oak Pacific Investment (“OPI”) and revenue from non-recurring sources. The Company provides back-office services including accounting, legal, and business-related consulting services, which is a single performance obligation provided over the contract periods with pre-determined stand-alone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue over the contract periods.

Contract balances: Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable represent amounts invoiced and revenue recognized when the Company has satisfied the Company’s performance obligation and has the unconditional right to payment. There were no contract assets recorded as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024.

Deferred revenue mainly represents payments received from customers related to unsatisfied performance obligations for SaaS. The Company’s total deferred revenue was $4,322 and $4,551 as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, respectively, which is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year. The amount of revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 that was previously included in the deferred revenue as of December 31, 2022 and 2023 were $3,371 and $3,310, respectively.

The update is to be adopted retrospectively to all periods presented and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluation the impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statement.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvement to Income Tax Disclosure.

9. STATUTORY RESERVE AND RESTRICTED NET ASSETS

In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment in China and their articles of association, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIE entities located in the PRC, being foreign invested enterprises established in the PRC, are required to provide for certain statutory reserves. These statutory reserve funds include one or more of the following: (i) a general reserve, (ii) an enterprise expansion fund or discretionary reserve fund, and (iii) a staff bonus and welfare fund. Subject to certain cumulative limits, the general reserve fund requires a minimum annual appropriation of 10% of after-tax profit (as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in China at each year-end); the other fund appropriations are at the subsidiaries’ or the affiliated PRC entities’ discretion. These statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes of enterprise expansion, staff bonus and welfare, and are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation of the Company’s subsidiaries, the Company’s affiliated PRC entities and their respective subsidiaries. The Company’s subsidiaries and VIE entities are required to allocate at least 10% of their after-tax profits to the general reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of their respective registered capital.

Appropriations to the enterprise expansion reserve and the staff welfare and bonus reserve are to be made at the discretion of the board of directors of each of the Company’s subsidiaries. The appropriation to these reserves by the Company’s PRC subsidiaries was nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Table of Contents

As a result of these PRC laws and regulations and the requirement that distributions by PRC entities can only be paid out of distributable profits computed in accordance with PRC GAAP, the PRC entities are restricted from transferring a portion of their net assets to the Company. Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and the statutory reserves of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIE entities. The aggregate amount of capital and statutory reserves restricted which represented the amount of net assets of the relevant subsidiaries and VIE entities in the Company not available for distribution was $8,496 as of June 30, 2024.

10. INCOME TAXES

Utilization of the federal and state net operating losses may be subject to certain annual limitations under IRC Section 382 due to the “change in ownership” provisions.

Please read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with “Note About Forward-Looking Statements” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, including Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors.”

Operating Results

Overview

Our business model has been evolving continuously since our initial public offering in May 2011. At the time of our initial public offering, we were primarily a social networking service platform, and we had a number of ancillary businesses that were intended to monetize that platform. We gradually disposed of most of those ancillary businesses in the years that followed our initial public offering.

Currently, we operate two SaaS businesses, Lofty and Trucker Path, both of which are considered reportable segments. Lofty offers an all-in-one real estate sales acceleration and client lifecycle management platform that allows real estate professionals to obtain and nurture leads, close transactions, and retain their clients. Trucker Path is a driver-centric online transportation management platform whose mission is to make freight transportation fast, reliable, and efficient. Trucker Path provides trip planning, navigation, freight sourcing, a marketplace that offers goods and services truckers use to operate their businesses and helps connect qualified brokers and carriers to expand their reach and initiate and complete transactions easily and efficiently. The majority of our revenues are generated by our SaaS businesses. Our SaaS businesses currently generate the vast majority of their revenue from the U.S. market.

Total revenues increased from $12.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $15.3 million for the same period in 2024, and net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $8.8 million and $0.2 million for the same period in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our total revenues increased from $25.0 million to $29.3 million in the same period in 2024, and net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $3.4 million and $3.0 million for the same period in 2024. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by loss from operations of $0.5 million and a loss from the change in fair value of long-term investments of $0.1 million, offset by interest income of $0.4 million.

Loss from operations improved from $2.8 million to $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively, and $6.3 million to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Financial Overview

Revenue

We derive substantially all of our revenues from SaaS subscription services, advertising services, and other related services. We recognize our revenues over the life of the SaaS subscriptions and net of business taxes or value added tax, as applicable. Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Deferred revenue mainly consists of payments received from customers related to unsatisfied performance obligations for SaaS subscription services and advertising services. Our total deferred revenue was $4.3 million and $4.6 million as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, respectively, most of which is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

Revenues

Our revenues increased by 18.8% from $12.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $15.3 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to the increase in revenue from our SaaS businesses.

●

Subscription Services. Our revenue from subscription services increased by 19.6% from $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $14.3 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of our SaaS businesses.

Table of Contents

●

Advertising Services. Our revenue from advertising services increased by 5.2% from $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $0.9 million for the same period in 2024.

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues increased by 33.5% from $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $3.5 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to the increase of software expenses directly related to the generation of revenue and cloud hosting services to provide a better user experience and grow our SaaS businesses.

Gross Margins

Our gross margin decreased 2.5% from 79.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 77.1%. The decrease was primarily due to increase in cost of service features provided within our real estate and trucking SaaS platforms.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses decreased by 6.2% from $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $12.3 million for the same period in 2024, primarily due cost reduction initiatives.

●

Research and development expenses. Our research and development expenses decreased by 7.2% from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $4.6 million for the same period in 2024.

●

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 11.1% from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $3.1 million for the same period in 2024.

Loss from fair value change of a long-term investment

Loss from fair value change of a long-term investment was $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared with $7.8 million for the same period in 2023.

This increase was primarily due to the increase of software expenses directly related to the generation of revenue and cloud hosting services to provide a better user experience and grow our SaaS businesses.

Gross Margins

Our gross margin decreased by 1.9% from 78.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 76.7% for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to increase in cost of service features provided within our real estate and trucking SaaS platforms.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses decreased by 7.0% from $25.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $24.1 million for the same period in 2024, primarily due to cost reduction initiatives.

●

Selling and marketing expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses decreased by 12.3% from $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $8.4 million for the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily due to lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount.

●

Research and development expenses. Our research and development expenses decreased by 8.2% from $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $9.0 million for the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our research and development headcount for new projects, and partially offset by service fees paid to outside contractors.

●

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by 0.6% from $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $6.5 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation expense due to decreased headcount and stock-based compensation offset by provision on insurance reimbursement receivable upon the result of arbitration.

●

Impairment of intangible asset. Our impairment of intangible asset increased from nil for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $0.2 million for the same period in 2024. The impairment loss in 2024 was due to impairment of the technology platform of LoftyWorks.

Gain (Loss) from fair value change of a long-term investment

Loss from fair value change of a long-term investment was $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with gain from fair value change of a long-term investment of $0.5 million for the same period in 2023. The gain (loss) from fair value change of a long-term investment represents the unrealized gain (loss) from reduction in quoted market price of ordinary shares of Kaixin, which is accounted for as an equity investment with readily determinable fair value.

Segment Operations

The Company operates in two reportable segments: Lofty and Trucker Path. The Company defines its segments as those operations whose results the chief operating decision maker regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, we had net current assets (current assets less current liabilities) of $24.7 million and $26.2 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, we incurred loss from operations amounting to $2.8 million and $0.5 million; for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, we incurred loss from operations amounting to $6.3 million and $1.6 million, and negative cash flows from operating activities of $5.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate cash flows from operations, and to make adequate financing arrangements. We had cash and cash equivalents of $34.1 million, excluding restricted cash of $5.2 million as of June 30, 2024. The cash reserve is expected to meet our operating needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, if negative cash flow from operating activities persists in the long run, our cash resources may become insufficient to satisfy on-going cash requirements. Cash is held at multiple financial institutions. We have diversified our deposits with various banks to reduce our potential exposure to bank failures, such as Silicon Valley Bank’s failure in March 2023.

Cash Flows and Working Capital

The following table sets forth a summary of cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):


	For the six months ended June 30,
	2023	2024
Net cash used in operating activities	(5,142)	(289)
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	3,921	(136)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(6,419)	858
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	(7,640)	433
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at the beginning of the period	27,960	38,969
Effect of exchange rate changes	479	(165)
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of the period	20,799	39,237

Table of Contents

Net cash used in operating activities was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2023. The principal adjustments to reconcile our net loss to our net cash used in operating activities were fair value change on long-term investment, share-based compensation expense and impairment on and (gain) loss in equity method investments. The principal change in operating assets and liabilities accounting for the difference between our net loss and our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was an increase in accounts receivable of $0.6 million and a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $0.5 million, and partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $0.2 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net cash provided by investing activities was $3.9 million for the same period in 2023. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was due to $0.1 million for the purchase of computers. Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to $4.9 million from redemption of short-term investment, offset by $0.9 million for the refurbishment construction, purchase equipment, and property on the headquarters office.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net cash used in financing activities was $6.4 million for the same period in 2023. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to proceeds of $1.0 million from exercise of share options, partly offset by the repurchase of $0.2 million ordinary shares. Net cash used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the repurchase of $9.1 million ordinary shares, partly offset by settlement of the shareholder derivative lawsuit for which we received a one-time dividend of $2.6 million for shares held in 2023.

Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations including interest payment, if applicable, as of June 30, 2024 (in thousands):


	Payment Due by Period
		Less than 1
	Total	year	1-3 years	4-5 years	More than 5 years
Operating lease obligations(1)	435	247	188	—	—

Notes:

(1)We lease facilities and offices under non-cancelable operating lease agreements.

Capital Expenditures

We made capital expenditures of $1.0 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. Our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily used to for the refurbishment construction on the headquarters office. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily used to for the purchase of the computers.

Research and Development, Patents, and Licenses, etc.

Research and Development

Our research and development efforts focus on developing and improving the scalability, features and functions of our SaaS services, including the compilation and use of data to increase automation of our services and enhance the customer experience. We have a large team of around 290 engineers and developers as of June 30, 2024, accounting for approximately 58% of our employees as of that date. Most of our engineers and developers are based at our subsidiary offices in China.

Table of Contents

Our research and development personnel support all areas of our business, mainly focusing on the improvement and enhancement of our SaaS businesses, Lofty and Trucker Path. Our research and development personnel also focus on enhancing the user experience through commonly used user interfaces, including mobile apps, and ensuring our products are fully compatible with the latest mobile operating systems such as iOS, Android, and Windows. In 2023, with the acquisition of Rentancy by Lofty, we expect to increasingly invest in developing Lofty products to serve property managers and landlords. We periodically shift the priorities of our research and development personnel to ensure we continually develop new products and services to extend our customer reach and meet the needs of our user base.

Our research and development expenses primarily include salaries and benefits for our research and development personnel. We incurred US$9.8 million and US$9.0 million of research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property includes trademarks and trademark applications related to our brands and services, copyrights in software, trade secrets, patent applications and other intellectual property rights and licenses. We seek to protect our intellectual property assets and brand through a combination of monitoring and enforcement of trademark, patent, copyright and trade secret protection laws in the US, PRC, and other jurisdictions, as well as through confidentiality agreements and procedures.

We have been granted 1 patent. In addition, we maintain 32 copyright registrations, all of which are computer software copyright registrations as of June 30, 2024. Our employees sign confidentiality and non-compete agreements when hired.

Trend Information

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events for the six months ended June 30, 2024 that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our revenues, income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause the disclosed financial information to be not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Refer to Part II, Item 7, “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates disclosed therein.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide information typically disclosed under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.

Table of Contents

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2022, our management identified two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which remain unremediated as of June 30, 2024, as follows:

●

Lack of an integrated and systematic risk assessment and reporting process to identify and assess the financial reporting risks and to ensure significant transactions including investments and non-routine transactions including share-based transactions are accurately recorded and properly disclosed; and

●

Lack of evaluations to ascertain whether the components of internal control are present and functioning.

Management’s Remediation Plans and Actions

To remediate the material weaknesses described above in “Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting,” we are implementing the plan and measures described below. We will continue to evaluate and, may in the future, implement additional measures.

●

We have recruited personnel with the requisite knowledge in accounting and disclosure requirements for complex transactions under U.S. GAAP and statutory compliance. Where needed, we have engaged external parties with the expertise to evaluate and advise the company on complex or evolving areas such as public company filings, taxation, and valuation services.

●

We have designed a control environment which allows management to monitor the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting and address gaps identified within the environment.

●

We have implemented a consolidated general ledger within a single enterprise resource planning application for all legal entities, which includes consolidation and statutory reporting capabilities.

●

We will design and implement evaluation policies and procedures to ascertain internal control components are present and functioning.

We believe that we are taking the steps necessary for remediation of the material weaknesses identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and to make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected or are reasonable likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance due to its inherent limitations; it is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. A control system also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of such limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all misstatements, whether unintentional errors or fraud. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be part of the ordinary course of business. The Company has been involved in arbitration proceedings which concerns a claim by the Company and Joseph Chen (“Mr. Chen”) against Zurich General Insurance Company (China) Limited (“Zurich”) for reimbursing (i) the Company for its costs indemnifying Mr. Chen and Mr. David K. Chao for their costs in defending a derivative litigation brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (Index No. 653594/2018) by Heng Ren Silk Road Investments LLC, Oasis Investments II Master Fund Limited and Jodi Arama (the “New York Court Action”) and (ii) Mr. Chen for his payment contribution towards settling the New York Court Action, in the total sum of US$5,000,000 being the policy limit under the Directors and Officers Liability Excess Insurance Policy entered into between the Company and Zurich on 19 October 2017. On July 22, 2024, the arbitral tribunal issued the final award and dismissed our claims in these proceedings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
