Exhibit 99.1

 

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial results and statements of Eshallgo Inc (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) for the six (6) months ended September 30, 2024, furnished as Exhibit 99.1. to this report.

 

Key Factors that Affect Our Results of Operations

 

We believe the following key factors may affect our financial condition and results of operations:

 

Our Ability to Strength Our Competitive Advantages

 

Through EShallGo’s overall market layout method, service-oriented approach as well as the gradual and in-depth advancement of independent research and development tools, we will change the traditional sales-oriented model in the industry to more comprehensively and accurately tend customer needs, improve service quality, achieve time efficiency, and enhance customer satisfaction. Our strategy is to shift majority portion of our revenue from sales of equipment to maintenance service, which has a higher gross profit margin. Our ability to successfully implement this strategy greatly affects our profitability.

 

Our Ability to Control Costs and Expenses and Improve Our Operating Efficiency

 

Our business growth is dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified and productive employees, identify business opportunities, secure new contracts with customers, and our ability to control costs and expenses to improve our operating efficiency. Our inventory costs (mostly including purchased equipment, equipment parts and supplies) have a direct impact on our profitability. Our success is dependent, in part, on our ability to reduce our exposure to increase in those costs through a variety of ways, while maintaining and improving margins and market share. Manufacturing is also subject to price volatility and labor cost and other inflationary pressures, which may, in turn, result in an increase in the amount we pay for sourced products. In addition, our staffing costs (including payroll and employee benefit expense) and administrative expenses also have a direct impact on our profitability. Our ability to drive the productivity of our staff and enhance our operating efficiency affects our profitability.

 

A Severe or Prolonged Slowdown in the Global or Chinese Economy Could Materially and Adversely Affect Our Business and Our Financial Condition

 

The rapid growth of the Chinese economy has slowed down since 2012 and this slowdown may continue in the future. There is considerable uncertainty over trade conflicts between the United States and China and the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies, including the United States and China. The withdrawal of these expansionary monetary and fiscal policies could lead to a contraction. There continue to be concerns over unrest and terrorist threats in the Middle East, Europe, and Africa, which have resulted in volatility in oil and other markets. There are also concerns about the relationships between China and other Asian countries, which may result in or intensify potential conflicts in relation to territorial disputes. The eruption of armed conflict could adversely affect global or Chinese discretionary spending, either of which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operation in financial condition. Economic conditions in China are sensitive to global economic conditions, as well as changes in domestic economic and political policies and the expected or perceived overall economic growth rate in China. Any severe or prolonged slowdown in the global or Chinese economy would likely materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, continued turbulence in the international markets may adversely affect our ability to access capital markets to meet liquidity needs.

Revenue

 

Our total revenues decreased by $1,570,852, or 19.0%, to $6,712,478 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $8,283,330 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in our revenues was primarily attributable to the following reasons:

 

· The revenues from sale of equipment decreased by $995,445, or 15.4%, to $5,480,454 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $6,475,899 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the following reasons: (i) sales of office equipment decreased by $181,846, or 4.5%, to $3,854,118 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $ 4,035,964 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. Due to the slow recovery of economic in China after the pandemic, many of our customers, such as private companies as well as government-affiliated institutions, have implement various measures to achieve cost reduction and improve economic efficiency. Therefore, we experienced a declining demand for our office equipment which causing a decreased revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year; and (ii) sales of consumable materials, parts and others decreased by $813,599, or 33.3%, to $1,626,336 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $2,439,935 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to less sales of supporting consumable materials to our customers for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as we received fewer one-off orders from our customers. Meanwhile, to improve our profitability, we also suspended the sales of some consumable materials with low profit margin for the six months ended September 30, 2024.

 

· Our revenue from maintenance service decreased by $482,534, or 44.8%, to $595,531 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $1,078,065 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. We provided mainly two types of services: (i) Full coverage, which mainly includes technical support and routine maintenance and repair service; and (ii) Other service, which mainly includes ad hoc maintenance and repair service, and provision of other software and system services. The decrease was primarily attributable to the following reasons: (i) the revenue from full coverage and repair service decreased by $52,114, or 31.5%, to $113,145 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $165,259 for the six months ended September 30, 2023; and (ii) the revenue from other service decreased by $430,420, or 47.2%, to $482,386 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $912,806 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in maintenance service was mainly due to declined customer orders for ad hoc maintenance and repair service, and other software and system services for the six months ended September 30, 2024 which was resulted from the slow recovery of economic in China as mentioned above.

 

· Our revenue from leasing of equipment decreased by $90,045, or 12.5%, to $632,556 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $722,601 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to declined customer orders we received for our leasing services for the six months ended September 30, 2024 which was resulted from the slow recovery of economic in China as mentioned above.

 

· Finance income is generated from sales type leases. The finance income decreased by $2,828, or 41.8%, to $3,937 in the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $6,765 in the six months ended September 30, 2023.

The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to the decrease in revenue from sales of equipment. The gross margin of sales of equipment remained relatively stable with a slight decrease of 1.5 percentage points, from 12.8% for the six months ended September 30, 2023 to 11.3% for the six months ended September 30, 2024.

Our selling expenses increased by $2,096,120, or 421.3%, to $2,593,603 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $497,483 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, primarily attributable to (i) an increase in our stock-based compensation expense by $2,048,200, or 100.0%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year, as we adopted equity incentive plan to award our consultants or key employees for their best efforts in our successful initial public offering; (ii) an increase in salary, employee insurance and welfare expenses by $25,044, or 7.3%, to $368,781 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $343,737 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, and an increase in travel and meals by $15,042, or 41.8%, to $51,052 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $36,010 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, which was mainly due to the increased number of sales personnel and increased travel and entertainment activities as our WFOE and its subsidiaries commenced active business operations during the six months ended September 30, 2024; and (iii) an increase in office, utility and other expenses by $7,834, or 6.7%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of revenues, our selling expenses accounted for 38.6% and 6.0% of our total revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

 


 

General and administrative expenses

 

Our general and administrative expenses primarily consist of stock-based compensation expense, employee salaries, welfare and insurance expenses, consultant and professional service fees incurred for company’s going public, depreciation and amortization expenses, rental expenses, office and utility expenses, bad debt expenses, and business travel and meals expenses.

Our general and administrative expenses increased by $878,093, or 79.3%, to $1,985,107 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $1,107,014 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, primarily attributable to (i) an increase in our consultant and professional fees by $337,584, or 125.6%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the increased fees paid for professional services such as audit services and financial consulting services during the six months ended September 30, 2024; (ii) an increase in allowance for credit losses and doubtful accounts by $227,441, or 223.1%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year. Due to the slow recovery of economic in China as mentioned above, our accounts receivable turnover days increased due to extended credits given to some of our customers. Hence, our allowance for credit losses/doubtful accounts increased for the six months ended September 30, 2024; (iii) an increase in our salary and welfare expenses by $158,476, or 25.8%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the increased director compensation since we became a public company as well as increased overtime compensation for our employees who worked long hours of overtime for the preparation of our initial public offering during the six months ended September 30, 2024; (iv) an increase in our travel and entertainment expense by $131,329, or 508.3%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year, which was due to the preparation of our initial public offering during the six months ended September 30, 2024; (v) an increase in our stock-based compensation expense by $30,000, or 100.0%, for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period last year, as we adopted equity incentive plan to award our consultants or key employees for their best efforts in our successful initial public offering; and (vi) a decrease in office, utility and other expenses by $6,737, or 2.2% for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 29.6% and 13.4% of our revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Our research and development expenses primarily consist of employee salaries, welfare and insurance expenses, technical service fees, depreciation expenses, conference expenses, and business travel and meals expenses.

Our research and development expenses decreased by $105,791, or 91.4%, to $9,999 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $115,790 for the six months ended September 30, 2023. Due to the slow recovery of economic in China as mentioned above, we received less orders from customers for customized services and software, hence, we devoted less resources in R&D activities during the six months ended September 30, 2024. As a percentage of revenues, research and development expenses were 0.1% and 1.4% of our revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

 


 

Other income

 

Our other income primarily includes interest income from our bank balances and short-term investments, government subsidies and others. Our other income increased by $9,875, or 37.4%, to $36,275 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 from $26,400 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, which was mainly due to increased investment income as more short-term investments we invested in during the six months ended September 30, 2024.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

Our provision for income taxes was $27,044 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $16,195, or 37.5%, from provision for income taxes of $43,239 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to our decreased taxable income generated by our subsidiaries and VIEs for the six months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period of last year. Effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2024 was (0.9)%, decreased by 9.1% when compared to 8.2% in the six months ended September 30, 2023, which was resulted from the overall decrease in profitability and we made a net loss before income tax provision for the six months ended September 30, 2024.

 

Net Income

 

As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net loss of $3,003,132 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, representing a $3,484,902, or 723.4% decrease from a net income of $481,770 for the six months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

 

One of our main operating entities, Junzhang Shanghai owns 55% shares of twenty-three subsidiaries, which located in many major cities in the PRC. Accordingly, we recorded non-controlling interest income attributed to non-controlling shareholders of these subsidiaries. The net income attributed to non-controlling interest decreased by $145,542, or 48.3%, from $301,528 for the six months ended September 30, 2023 to $155,986 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, which was due to the overall decrease in profitability.

 

Net Income Attributable to Eshallgo Inc

 

As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net loss attributable to Eshallgo of $3,159,118 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, representing a $3,339,360, or 1,852.7% decrease from a net income of $180,242 for the six months ended September 30, 2023.

 

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On July 3, 2024, we closed our IPO (the “Offering”) of 1,250,000 Class A ordinary shares at a public offering price of $4.00 per Class A ordinary share for the total gross proceeds of $5.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and other related expenses. The Offering was conducted on a firm commitment basis. In addition, we have granted the underwriters of the Offering an option, exercisable within 45 days from the date of the underwriting agreement, to purchase up to an additional 187,500 Class A ordinary shares at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The option was expired and no share was exercised by the underwriters. Our Class A ordinary shares began trading on Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “EHGO” on July 2, 2024.

 

On November 29, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor (the “Debenture Holder”) to place Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures,” each, a “Debenture”) with a maturity date of November 28, 2025, which is 364 days after the issuance of the first Debenture, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5,000,000 at a purchase price equal to 95% of the principal amount (the “Transaction”), provided that in case of an event of default, the Debentures may become, at the Debenture Holder’s election, immediately due and payable. The Debentures bear an interest rate of 5% per annum which shall be increased to 18% per annum in the event of default. The initial closing of the Transaction in the principal amount of $1,500,000 in Debenture occurred on November 29, 2024. The second closing of the Transaction in the principal amount of $2,000,000 in Debenture occurred on December 19, 2024. The third closing of the Transaction in the principal amount of $1,500,000 in Debenture occurred on December 30, 2024. As of the date of the report, we issued Class A ordinary shares totaling 432,759 to the Debenture Holder equaling principal and interests amounted to $439,575.

 

 


 

As of September 30, 2024, we had $4,682,143 in cash and cash equivalents as compared to $5,362,101 as of March 31, 2024. We also had $4,490,214 in accounts receivable. Our accounts receivable primarily include balance due from customers for our office equipment sold and services provided and accepted by customers. Approximately 29%, or $1.3 million of our net accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2024 have been subsequently collected. Collected accounts receivable will be used as working capital in our operations, if necessary.

 

As of September 30, 2024, we had short-term investments of $2,762,983, including accrued interests of $53,976. Short-term investments include wealth management products, which are certain deposits with variable interest rates or principal not-guaranteed with certain financial institutions and the Company can redeem the deposits at any time. The Company records wealth management products with variable interest rates with maturities less than one year at fair value in accordance with ASC 825 Financial Instruments. The interest earned is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive loss as interest income.

 

As of September 30, 2024, our inventory balance amounted to $1,798,838, primarily consisting of purchased goods and supplies, which we believe are able to be sold quickly based on the analysis of the current trends in demand for our products.

 

As of September 30, 2024, our working capital balance was $18,074,309. In assessing our liquidity, management monitors and analyzes our cash and cash equivalents, our ability to generate sufficient revenue in the future, and our operating and capital expenditure commitments. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, cash flows provided by operating activities, debt financing, the proceeds we received from the IPO and other equity financing activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs in the next 12 months from the date the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. However, if we were to experience an adverse operating environment or incur unanticipated capital expenditures, or if we decided to accelerate our growth, then additional financing may be required. Our capital expenditures, including infrastructure to support ongoing operational initiatives have been and will continue to be significant. We cannot guarantee, however, that additional financing, if required, would be available at all or on favorable terms. Such financing may include the use of additional debt or the sale of additional equity securities. Any financing which involves the sale of equity securities or instruments that are convertible into equity securities could result in immediate and possibly significant dilution to our existing shareholders.

 

In the coming years, we will be looking to financing sources, such as bank loans and debt and equity financing, to meet our cash needs. While facing uncertainties in regards to the size and timing of capital raises, we are confident that we can continue to meet operational needs mainly by utilizing cash flows generated from our operating activities and shareholder working capital funding, as necessary.

 

The following table sets forth summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses, to disclose contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and to disclose the reported amounts of revenue and expenses incurred during the financial reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions include the assessment of the expected credit losses for receivables, valuation of inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, realization of deferred tax assets, and the revenue recognition of leasing of equipment. We continue to evaluate these estimates and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We rely on these evaluations as the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We believe critical accounting policies as disclosed in this report reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The following critical accounting policies (i) credit losses; (ii) inventories, net; (iii) impairment of long-lived assets; (iv) revenue recognition; and (v) income taxes, rely upon assumptions and estimates and were used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

 

Credit losses

 

We use the roll-rate method to measure the expected credit losses accounts receivable, finance receivable, long-term accounts receivable and long-term other receivable on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The roll-rate method stratifies the receivables balance by delinquency stages and projected forward in one-year increments using historical roll rate. In each year of the simulation, losses on the receivables are captured, and the ending delinquency stratification serves as the beginning point of the next iteration. This process is repeated on a yearly rolling basis. The loss rate calculated for each delinquency stage is then applied to respective receivables balance. We adjust the allowance that is determined by the roll-rate method for both current conditions and forecast of economic conditions. When establishing the loss rate, we make the assessment on various factors, including historical experience, creditworthiness of debtors, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from, the debtors. Changes in these factors may result in material increase or decrease in amount of credit losses for accounts receivable for the period, which could be material to the financial operation results. The factors that have an effect on loss rate like creditworthiness of debtors, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions are constantly changing according to the objective environment, therefore, it is a critical accounting policy. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable amounted to$201,252 and $133,449, respectively, allowance for credit losses for long-term accounts receivable amounted to $5,043 and $5,073, respectively, allowance for credit losses for long-term other receivable amounted to $27,856 and $ nil, respectively, allowance for credit losses for loan to third parties which is included in current and non-current prepaid expenses and other assets amounted to $45,277 and $25,026, respectively, and allowance for credit losses for finance receivable amounted to $4,509 and $6,040, respectively. Each 1 percentage point increase in our expected credit loss rate would increase our allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, long-term accounts receivable, long-term other receivable, loan to third parties and finance receivable as of September 30, 2024 by $46,199, $1,767, $10,432, $15,358 and $1,618, respectively. Each 1 percentage point decrease in our expected credit loss rate would decrease our allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, long-term accounts receivable, long-term other receivable, loan to third parties and finance receivable as of September 30, 2024 by $30,523, $1,376, $9,100, $5,002 and $1,250, respectively.

 

Inventories, net

 

Inventory allowance involves estimating potential future inventory write-downs or losses. These estimates are typically based on management’s judgment and historical data, but factors such as future market conditions and changes in demand can affect the accuracy of these estimates. Therefore, the estimation of inventory allowance carries a high degree of uncertainty. Inventory is a significant component of the Company's balance sheet, and changes in inventory allowance directly affect the total assets and net income of the company. If the inventory allowance is underestimated, it may lead to overstatement of assets and inflated profits; conversely, overestimation may result in understated assets and reduced profits. And therefore, it is a critical accounting policy. The inventory reserve amounted $18,170 and $19,830 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Each 1% increase (decrease) in our estimates would increase (decrease) our inventory reserve as of September 30, 2024 by $18,170.

 

 


 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

Impairment of property and equipment involves estimating future cash flows, which are typically based on management’s judgment and assumptions. Future market conditions, technological changes, and economic environment can all affect the accuracy of these estimates. Therefore, the estimation of property and equipment impairment carries a high degree of uncertainty. Property and equipment is a significant component of our balance sheet, and changes in property and equipment impairment directly affect the total assets and net income of the company. If the property and equipment impairment is underestimated, it may lead to overstatement of assets and inflated profits; conversely, overestimation may result in understated assets and reduced profits. Determining property and equipment impairment requires substantial judgment and estimation by management, including forecasting future cash flows, selecting discount rates, and determining the useful life of assets. These judgments and estimates are highly subjective, making the transparency and reasonableness of the property and equipment impairment policy crucial for investors and regulatory bodies. And therefore, it is a critical accounting policy. There were no impairments of these assets for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Revenue recognition

 

We have multiple types of revenue streams and each revenue stream require us to apply the judgements in determining the methodology and accounting treatment for financial reporting purpose based on U.S. GAAP. Changes in these judgements may result in material increase or decrease in amount of revenue recognition for the period, which could be material to the financial operation results. We will continue execute its diversified operations strategy and seek other bossiness opportunities in addition to the original scope of business, therefore, it will still be a critical accounting policy in the foreseeable future.

 

Income taxes

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When we determine and quantify the valuation allowances, we consider such factors as projected future taxable income, the availability of tax planning strategies, the historical taxable income/losses in prior years, and future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. The assumptions used in determining projected future taxable income require significant judgment. Actual operating results in future years could differ from the current assumptions, judgements and estimates. Changes in these estimates and judgements may result in material increase or decrease in the provision for income tax expenses, which could be material to the financial position and results of operations. It is difficult to determine whether or when we and our subsidiaries will become profitable in the future, therefore, it will still be a critical accounting policy in the foreseeable future.

Reorganization

 

A reorganization of the Company’s legal structure (“Reorganization”) was completed on December 3, 2021. The Reorganization involved the formation of Eshallgo, Eshallgo HK and Eshallgo WFOE, and signing of certain contractual arrangements between Eshallgo WFOE, the shareholders of the Eshallgo Operating Companies and the Eshallgo Operating Companies. Consequently, the Company became the ultimate holding company of Eshallgo HK, Eshallgo WFOE, Junzhang Shanghai, and Junzhang Beijing.

 

On July 30, 2021, Eshallgo WFOE entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing. On December 3, 2021, Eshallgo WFOE entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the shareholders of Junzhang Shanghai. These agreements include Equity Interest Pledge Agreements, an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreements, Powers of Attorney, and Spouse Consents (collectively the “VIE Agreements”). Pursuant to these VIE Agreements, Eshallgo WFOE has the exclusive right to provide to the Eshallgo Operating Companies consulting services related to business operations including technical and management consulting services. The VIE agreements are designed to render WFOE as the primary beneficiary of and entitle Eshallgo of rights to consolidate Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai for accounting purposes. As a result of our direct ownership in Eshallgo WFOE and signing of these VIE Agreements, we believe that the Eshallgo 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 the VIEs. We treat the VIEs as our consolidated entities under ASC 810.

 

The Reorganization has been accounted for as a recapitalization among entities under common control since the same controlling shareholders controlled all these entities before and after the Reorganization. The consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries has been accounted for at historical cost.

 

The VIE contractual arrangements

 

The Company’s main operating entities, Junzhang Shanghai and its subsidiaries and Junzhang Beijing (or the “Eshallgo Operating Companies” as referred above), are controlled through contractual arrangements by the Company.

 

Eshallgo WFOE has entered into the following arrangements with its VIEs

 

Equity Interest Pledge Agreement

 

Pursuant to the equity interest pledge agreement entered into among Eshallgo WFOE, Junzhang Beijing/Junzhang Shanghai and the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing/Junzhang Shanghai, respectively, the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing/Junzhang Shanghai pledged all of their equity interests in Junzhang Beijing/Junzhang Shanghai to Eshallgo WFOE to guarantee Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai’s obligations under the contractual arrangements including the exclusive business cooperation agreement, the exclusive option agreement and the shareholders’ power of attorney and this equity interest pledge agreement, as well as any loss incurred due to events of default defined therein and all expenses incurred by Eshallgo WFOE in enforcing such obligations of Junzhang Beijing, Junzhang Shanghai, or their shareholders. In the event of default defined therein, upon written notice to the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai, Eshallgo WFOE, as pledgee, will have the right to dispose of the pledged equity interests in Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai and priority in receiving the proceeds from such disposition. The shareholders of Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai agree that, without Eshallgo WFOE’s prior written approval, during the term of the equity pledge agreement, they will not dispose of the pledged equity interests or create or allow any other encumbrance on the pledged equity interests. The pledge shall become effective on such date when the pledge of the equity interest contemplated in the equity interest pledge agreement is registered appropriately, and the pledge shall remain effective until all contractual obligations have been fully performed and all secured indebtedness have been fully paid. The shareholders, Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai shall not have any right to terminate this agreement in any event unless otherwise required by PRC laws.

 

 


 

Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement

 

Eshallgo WFOE and Junzhang Beijing, and Eshallgo WFOE and Junzhang Shanghai entered into exclusive business cooperation agreements, pursuant to which Eshallgo WFOE has the exclusive right to provide to Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai technical support, consulting services and other services related to, among other things, design and development, operation maintenance, product consulting, and management and marketing consulting. Eshallgo WFOE has the exclusive ownership of intellectual property rights created as a result of the performance of this agreement. Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai agree to pay Eshallgo WFOE service fees at an amount as determined by Eshallgo WFOE. This agreement will remain effective upon execution, and unless terminated in accordance with the provisions of this agreement or terminated in writing by Eshallgo WFOE. Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai shall not have any right to terminate this agreement in any event unless otherwise required by PRC laws. On July 30, 2021 and December 3, 2021, WFOE executed a supplementary agreement to the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement with Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai, respectively, which amended the “services fee” to be VIEs’ net income, which is pretax income after deducting relevant costs and reasonable expenses.

 

Exclusive Option Agreement

 

Eshallgo WFOE, Junzhang Beijing and each of the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing, Junzhang Shanghai and each of the shareholders of Junzhang Shanghai have entered into exclusive option agreements, pursuant to which each of the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai irrevocably granted Eshallgo WFOE an exclusive call option to purchase, or have its designated person(s) to purchase, at its discretion, all or part of their equity interests in Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai, and the purchase price shall be the lowest price permitted by applicable PRC law. Each of the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai undertake that, without the prior written consent of Eshallgo WFOE, they may not increase or decrease the registered capital or change its structure of registered capital in other manners, dispose of its assets or beneficial interest in the material business or allow the encumbrance thereon of any security interest, incur any debts or guarantee liabilities, enter into any material purchase agreements, enter into any merger, acquisition or investments, amend its articles of association, distribute dividends to any of the shareholders or provide any loans to third parties. The exclusive option agreement will remain effective until all equity interests in Junzhang Beijing or Junzhang Shanghai held by the shareholders of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai are transferred or assigned to Eshallgo WFOE Cor its designated person(s). The shareholders of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai shall not have any right to terminate this agreement in any event unless otherwise required by PRC laws.

 

Shareholders’ Power of Attorney

 

Under each Power of Attorney, each Shareholder authorizes Eshallgo WFOE to act on their behalf as their exclusive agent and attorney with respect to all rights as shareholders, including but not limited to: (a) the attendance of the shareholder’s meeting; (b) exercising all the shareholder’s rights, including voting, that shareholders are entitled to under the PRC laws and the Articles of Association of QQJ Network, including but not limited to the sale or transfer or pledge or disposition of shares in part or in whole; and (c) designating and appointing on behalf of shareholders the legal representative, the executive director and/or director, supervisor, general manager and other senior management members of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai.

 

Each of the Powers of Attorney shall be irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of its execution, and shall remain effective so long as the relevant Shareholder is a shareholder of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai.

 

Spousal Consent Letters

 

The spouses of the Shareholders of Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai have each signed a spousal consent letter, pursuant to which, the signing spouse unconditionally and irrevocably has agreed to the execution by his or her spouse of the above-mentioned Equity Interest Pledge Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement and Power of Attorney, and that his or her spouse may perform, amend or terminate such agreements without his or her consent. In addition, in the event that the spouse obtains any equity interest in Junzhang Beijing and Junzhang Shanghai held by his or her spouse for any reason, he or she agrees to be bound by and sign any legal documents substantially similar to the contractual arrangements entered into by his or her spouse, as may be amended from time to time.

 

A VIE is an entity which has a total equity investment that is insufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity or obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity. The variable interest holder, if any, that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of, and must consolidate, the VIE, because it met the condition under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) to consolidate the VIE.

 

 


 

Eshallgo WFOE is deemed to have a controlling financial interest in and be the primary beneficiary of the Eshallgo Operating Companies because it has both of the following characteristics:

 

· The power to direct activities of the Eshallgo Operating Companies that most significantly impact such entities’ economic performance, and

 

· The obligation to absorb losses of, and the right to receive benefits from, the Eshallgo Operating Companies that could potentially be significant to such entities.

 

Pursuant to these contractual arrangements, the Eshallgo Operating Companies shall pay service fees equal to all of their net profit after tax payments to Eshallgo WFOE. Accordingly, Eshallgo WFOE has the right to receive substantially all of the Eshallgo Operating Companies’ economic benefits for accounting purposes. Such contractual arrangements are designed so that the operations of the Eshallgo Operating Companies are solely for the benefit of Eshallgo WFOE and ultimately, the Company, and therefore the Company must consolidate the Eshallgo Operating Companies under U.S. GAAP.

 

Risks associated with the VIE structure

 

The Company believes that the contractual arrangements with the VIEs and the shareholders of the VIEs are in compliance with PRC laws and regulations and are legally enforceable. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability to enforce the contractual arrangements. If the legal structure and contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government could:

 

· revoke the business and operating licenses of the Company’s PRC subsidiary and the VIEs;

 

· discontinue or restrict the operations of any related-party transactions between the Company’s PRC subsidiary and the VIEs;

 

· limit the Company’s business expansion in China by way of entering into contractual arrangements;

 

· impose fines or other requirements with which the Company’s PRC subsidiary and the VIEs may not be able to comply;

 

· require the Company or the Company’s PRC subsidiary and the VIEs to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or

 

· restrict or prohibit the Company’s use of the proceeds from public offering to finance the Company’s business and operations in China.

 

The Company’s ability to conduct its office equipment solution service businesses may be negatively affected if the PRC government were to carry out of any of the aforementioned actions. As a result, the Company may not be able to consolidate the VIEs in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as it may lose the ability to exercise its rights as the primary beneficiary over the VIEs and it may lose the ability to receive economic benefits from the VIEs. The Company, however, does not believe such actions would result in the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, its PRC subsidiary and the VIEs. The Company and Eshallgo HK are essentially holding companies and do not have active operations through September 30, 2024. As a result, total assets and liabilities presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and revenue, expenses, and net income presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive loss as well as the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows are substantially the financial position, operating results and cash flow of Eshallgo WFOE and its subsidiaries and the VIEs and VIE’s subsidiaries. The Company has not provided any financial support to the VIEs for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 20-F/A for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, which was filed on December 16, 2024. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and entities it controlled through VIE agreements. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

Non-controlling interest

 

For the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated subsidiaries and the VIEs, non-controlling interests are recognized to reflect the portion of equity that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company as the controlling shareholder. Non-controlling interests are classified as a separate line item in the equity section of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and have been separately disclosed in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive loss to distinguish the interests from that of the controlling shareholder.

 

 


 

As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, non-controlling interest equity consisted of the following:

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity U.S. GAAP, the 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These accounting estimates used in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These estimates are based on management’s best available information including current events, historical experience, actions that the company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, assessment of the expected credit losses for financial assets, valuation of inventories, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, realization of deferred tax assets, implicit interest rate of operating leases, and the revenue recognition of leasing of equipment. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates.

 

 


 

Risks and uncertainties

 

The main operations of the Company are 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 economy in the PRC. 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, such experience may not be indicative of future results.

 

The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may also be negatively impacted by risks related to natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, health epidemics and other catastrophic incidents, which could significantly disrupt the Company’s operations.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash include cash on hand and deposits held by banks that can be added or withdrawn without limitation. The Company maintains its bank accounts in the PRC, Hongkong and the United States. The Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Short-term investment

 

Short-term investments include wealth management products, which are certain deposits with variable interest rates or principal not-guaranteed with certain financial institutions and the Company can redeem the deposits at any time. The Company records wealth management products with variable interest rates with maturities less than one year at fair value in accordance with ASC 825 Financial Instruments. The interest earned is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive loss as investment income.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had short-term investments balance of $2,762,983 and $1,131,267, including accrued interests of $53,976 and $23,556, respectively.

 

Restricted cash

 

Restricted cash represents proceeds from the initial public offering which was deposited in the escrow account with the underwriter and will be released to the Company after six months. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had restricted cash of $300,000 and $ nil, respectively.

 

Credit Losses

 

On April 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” by using a modified retrospective transition method, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss methodology. The expected credit loss impairment model requires the entity to recognize its estimate of expected credit losses for affected financial assets using an allowance for credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

 


 

The Company’s accounts receivable from third parties and related parties, due from related parties, finance receivable, long-term accounts receivable, long-term other receivable, loans and security deposits which is included in current and non-current prepaid expenses and other assets line item in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. The Company uses the roll-rate method to measure the expected credit losses of accounts receivable, finance receivable and long-term other receivable   on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The roll-rate method stratifies the receivables balance by delinquency stages and projected forward in one-year increments using historical roll rate. In each year of the simulation, losses on the receivables are captured, and the ending delinquency stratification serves as the beginning point of the next iteration. This process is repeated on a yearly rolling basis. The loss rate calculated for each delinquency stage is then applied to respective receivables balance. The management adjusts the allowance that is determined by the roll-rate method for both current conditions and forecasts of economic conditions. For security deposits and loans to third parties, the Company uses the loss-rate method to evaluates the expected credit losses on an individual basis. When establishing the loss rate, the Company makes the assessment on various factors, including historical experience, current economic conditions and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from the debtors. The Company also provides specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that the receivable is unlikely to be collected.

 

Expected credit losses are included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive loss. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable, net represent the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration, which are stated at the original amount less an allowance for credit losses. Allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable amounted to $201,252 and $133,449 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Advances to suppliers, net

 

Advance to suppliers consists of balances paid to suppliers for purchase of office equipment, equipment parts and suppliers and others that have not been used against purchases. Advance to suppliers are short-term in nature and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers the assets to be impaired if the utilization of the advance becomes doubtful. The Company continually assesses the credit quality of its suppliers and the factors that affect the credit risk and the supplier’s capability of fulfilling the future purchase orders and then records specific allowances for those advances based on the specific facts and circumstances. Allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $199,780 and $175,135 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Prepaid expenses and other current assets, net

 

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of prepaid social security-employee portion, loans to third parties which are used for short-term funding to support various third-party suppliers and employees, security deposits primarily include security deposits paid to landlords for the Company’s leased offices as well as security deposits paid to the Company’s suppliers, deferred initial public offering costs and others. Loans to third parties and security deposits are within the scope of ASC Topic 326, allowance for credit losses for loans to third parties amounted to $37,550 and $19,647 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively, and allowance for credit losses for security deposits and other were both $ nil as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Finance receivable, net

 

Finance receivables consist of receivables in relation to sales-type leases resulting from the sales of equipment. Finance receivables is recorded upon the inception of the lease, and consists the minimum lease payments, net of the unearned interest income and allowance for credit losses. It is recognized as current or non-current assets in the balance sheets based on the duration of the remaining lease terms. Allowance for credit losses amounted to $4,509 and $6,040 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

 


 

Inventories, net

 

Inventories, primarily consisting of purchased equipment, equipment parts and supplies, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less any costs to complete and sell products. Cost of inventory is determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company periodically evaluates inventories against their net realizable value, 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 and future demand of each type of inventories. The Company recorded inventory reserve of $18,170 and $19,830 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Property and equipment, net

 

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

 

    Useful Life
Electric equipment   3 years
Machinery and equipment   5 years
Motor vehicles   4 years
Office furniture   5 years
Leasehold improvement   Lesser of useful life and lease term

 

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 (loss) and comprehensive loss in other income.

 

Leases

 

The VIEs, Junzhang Shanghai, Junzhang Beijing and their subsidiaries entered into various operating lease agreements with different landlords to lease office space and warehouse space in major cities in the PRC. All of these leases are accounted for as operating leases, under the adoption of ASC Topic 842 (“Topic 842”).

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and non-current portion of operating lease liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and includes initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expenses for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. All operating lease right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment annually. There was no impairment for operating lease right-of-use lease assets for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

The Company has elected the short-term lease practical expedient, and therefore operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less.

 

Deferred initial public offering (“IPO”) costs

 

The Company complies with the requirement of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the intended IPO. Deferred offering costs was charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, deferred IPO costs were $ nil and $433,007, respectively, which are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

 


 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets with finite lives, primarily consists of property and equipment and right-of-use assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are below the asset’s carrying value, then the asset is deemed to be impaired and written down to its fair value. There were no impairments of these assets for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines Fair Value (“FV”), and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of FV measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for FV measures. 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 financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts receivable due from related parties, due from related parties, prepaid expenses and other current assets, short-term bank loan, accounts payable, accounts payable due to related parties, deferred revenue, payroll payable, due to related parties, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The Company carries short-term investments in wealth management products at fair value, which are measured at Level 2.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

The functional currency for Eshallgo is the U.S. Dollar (“US$”). Eshallgo HK uses Hong Kong dollar (“HK$”) as its functional currency. However, Eshallgo, and Eshallgo HK currently only serve as the holding companies and did not have active operations as of the date of this report. The Company operates its business through WFOE and the VIEs in the PRC through September 30, 2024. The functional currency of WFOE and the VIEs is the Renminbi (“RMB”). Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction.

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the US$, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statements”, Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated at the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity is 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 (loss). Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. 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 financial statements in this report:

Revenue recognition

 

The Company generates its revenues primarily through sales of equipment and provision of services and recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606. ASC 606 establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

 

ASC 606 requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract 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 obligation.

 

Revenue amount represents the invoiced value, net of a value-added tax (the “VAT”). Revenues under bundled arrangements are allocated considering the relative standalone selling prices of the performance obligations included in the bundled arrangement.

 

More specifically, revenue related to the Company’s products and services is generally recognized as follows:

 

Revenue from sales of equipment

 

Revenues from the sale of equipment directly to end customers and distributors, including those from sales-type leases (see “Revenue from leasing of equipment” below), are recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied and control has been transferred to the customer. For equipment placements that require the Company to install the product at the customer location, it has two promises, which are to transfer the products and to provide the installation services. The installation required is not complex and can be completed simultaneously together with delivery of the products and is considered to be immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer. For such arrangements, there is one performance obligation in each contract, which is to provide the requested equipment to the customer and the total consideration under the contract is recognized as revenue when the goods have been delivered and installed at the customer location.

 

The Company does not offer its customer warranties that can be purchased separately, and the warranties only provide its customers with the peace of mind that the Company will fix or possibly replace the equipment if the original one was faulty, the Company determines that its warranty is assurance-type warranty. Since an assurance-type warranty guarantees the functionality of a product, the warranty is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation, and thus no transaction price is allocated to it.

 

No significant returns, refund and other similar obligations during the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Revenue from leasing of equipment

 

The Company records rental income from the leasing of equipment in accordance with ASC 842. The two primary lease accounting provisions the Company assesses for the classification of transactions as sales-type or operating leases are: (1) a review of the lease term to determine if it is equal to or greater than 75% of the economic life of the equipment and (2) a review of the present value of the minimum lease payments to determine if they are equal to or greater than 90% of the fair market value of the equipment at the inception of the lease. Lease arrangements that meet these conditions are accounted for as sales-type leases and sales profit or loss at lease inception is recognized as noted above for sales of equipment. Lease arrangements that do not meet these conditions are accounted for operating leases. The revenue from an operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

 

 


 

A significant portion of the Company’s lease to end customers are made through bundled lease arrangements that typically include equipment, financing and maintenance components for which the customer pays a single negotiated fixed minimum monthly payment for all elements over the contractual lease term. These arrangements also typically include an incremental, variable component for excess page volumes consumed. When the customer prints more than the maximum monthly page volume stated in the contract, the Company will charge excess page volume consumed, which are often expressed in terms of price-per-page. Revenue related to the excess page charges is calculated based on actual excess page volume consumed by price-per-page and is recognized when excess pages were used by the customer. The fixed minimum monthly payments are multiplied by the number of months in the contract term to arrive at the total fixed minimum payments that the customer is obligated to make (fixed payments) over the lease term. In applying the lease accounting methodology, the Company only considers the fixed payments for purposes of allocating to the relative fair value elements of the contract.

 

Revenues under bundled arrangements contains multiple performance obligations, including the lease and non-lease performance obligations. Under sales-type lease, for such bundled arrangements, revenues are allocated considering the relative standalone selling prices of the lease and non-lease deliverables included in the bundled arrangement. Lease deliverables include the equipment and financing, which are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, while non-lease deliverables generally consist of supplies and maintenance services, which are generally recognized over the term of the lease as maintenance services revenue as noted below under “Revenue from maintenance services”. The allocation for the lease deliverables begins by allocating revenues to equipment and financing based on their standalone selling price, and the remaining amounts are allocated to the supplies and maintenance services.

 

For operating lease, since the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease, and maintenance services associated with lease are also transfer to the customers over the term of the lease. As both criteria are met, the Company makes the accounting policy election in accordance with ASC 842-10-15-42A, and therefore, the Company chooses to not separate non-lease components from lease components and, instead, to account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single component.

 

The Company considers the economic life of most of the products to be five years and there is no significant after-market for the used equipment. The Company believes five years is representative of the period during which the equipment is expected to be economically usable, with normal service, for the purpose for which it is intended. Residual values are not significant.

 

With respect to their standalone selling price, the Company performs an analysis based on cash selling prices during the applicable period. The cash selling prices are compared to the range of values determined for the leases. The range of cash selling prices must be reasonably consistent with the lease selling prices in order for the Company to determine that such lease prices are indicative of standalone selling price.

 

No significant returns, refund and other similar obligations during the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Financing:

 

Finance income attributable to sales-type leases is recognized on the accrual basis using the effective interest method.

 

Revenue from maintenance services

 

The Company provides maintenance services for which the customer pays a single negotiated fixed minimum monthly payment for all elements over the contractual term. These arrangements typically include implementation, configuration, training, technical support, and repair of the office equipment, which to ensure the functionality of the machines. These services represent a single performance obligation as they are highly interdependent and interrelated and cannot be separately identifiable. The fixed minimum monthly payments are multiplied by the number of months in the contract term to arrive at the total fixed minimum payments that the customer is obligated to make (fixed payments) over the contractual term. Revenues from maintenance and technical support services are recognized over time as such services are performed in a straight-line basis.

 

No significant returns, refund and other similar obligations during the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Contract assets and liabilities

 

The Company does not have contract assets as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024. Contract liabilities represent payment has been received from the Company’ customers in advance of the delivery of products or services. The Company’s contract liabilities, which are reflected in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as deferred revenue of $777,304 and $598,661 as of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized in the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in the opening deferred revenue was $143,056 and $301,811, respectively. All unsatisfied performance obligation will be performed within the next twelve months and no significant financing component is involved.

 

Costs of revenue

 

Cost of equipment sold primarily included the costs to purchase the office equipment, inducing the freight-in expenses and ordering expenses. For operating lease, cost of leasing of office equipment primarily included the depreciation expense of equipment leased, and the handling and shipping costs. Cost of maintenance and repair services primarily included the labor, costs of equipment parts and supplies, the transportation expenses, and the costs paid to the contractors in the cases that we outsourced the services.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development costs relating to the development of new processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing processes, are expensed when incurred in accordance with the FASB ASC 730, “Research and Development.” The research and development costs primarily comprise employee costs, consultant fees, travel and transportation fees, and depreciation to property, plant and equipment used in the research and development activities. For the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, total research and development expense were $9,999 and $115,790, respectively.

 

Employee benefits

 

The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC participate in a government-mandated multi-employer employee benefits 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 and the VIEs 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 (loss) and comprehensive loss amounted to $194,574 and $224,221 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, 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 unaudited condensed 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. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company does not believe that there was any uncertain tax provision on September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024. The Company’s subsidiary and the VIEs in China are subject to the income tax laws of the PRC. The Company’s subsidiary in Hong Kong is subject to the profit taxes in Hong Kong. No significant income was generated outside the PRC for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. According to PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or withholding agent. The statute of limitations will be extended five years under special circumstances, which are not clearly defined (but an underpayment of tax liability exceeding RMB0.1 million is specifically listed as a special circumstance). In the case of a related party transaction, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion.

 

Value added tax (“VAT”)

 

The Company is a general taxpayer and is subject to applicable VAT tax rate of 5% to 13%. VAT is reported as a deduction to revenue when incurred. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT tax paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) 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 (loss) 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. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, there were no dilutive shares.

 

Comprehensive loss

 

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

 

Statement of cash flows

 

In accordance with ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows”, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated in functional currency and translated into the reporting currency using the average exchange rate in the period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

 

 


 

Related parties and transactions

 

The Company identifies related parties, and accounts for, discloses related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures” and other relevant SEC rules and regulations.

 

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Transactions between related parties commonly occurring in the normal course of business are considered to be related party transactions.

 

Segment reporting

 

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions assessing performance and allocating resources. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results including revenue, gross profit and operating profit at a consolidated level only. The Company does not distinguish between markets for the purpose of making decisions about resources allocation and performance assessment. Therefore, the Company has only one operating segment and one reportable segment. Management determined the Company’s operations constitute a single reportable segment. This reflects the fact that our CODM continues to evaluate our financial information and resources, and continues to assess the performance of these resources, on a consolidated basis. All required financial segment information is therefore included in our consolidated financial statements. Majority of the Company’s assets were located in the PRC and 100% of the Company’s revenues were derived from its wholly owned subsidiaries, and the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries located in the PRC, hence, no disclosure of geographic areas is required for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. As a result, the Company’s operating results and financial statements may not be comparable to the operating results and financial statements of other companies who have adopted the new or revised accounting standards.

 

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative”. This standard was issued in response to the SEC’s disclosure update and simplification initiative, which affects a variety of topics within the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected topics unless otherwise indicated. This ASU will become effective for each amendment on the date on which the SEC removes the related disclosure from its regulations. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective for any entity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. This ASU requires additional quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosures to enable financial statements users better assess how an entity’s operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on either a prospective or retroactive basis. The Company plans to adopt this guidance effective April 1, 2025 and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements.

 

 


 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to 1. disclose amounts of (a) purchase of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and, (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil-and gas-producing activities, 2. include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the same disclosures as other disaggregation requirements, 3. disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not necessarily disaggregated quantitatively, and 4. disclose the total amount of selling expenses, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expense. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The standard provides guidance to expand disclosures related to the disaggregation of income statement expenses. The standard requires, in the notes to the financial statements, disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses which includes purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this guidance effective April 1, 2027 and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, “Debt-Debt with Conversions and Other Option”. This ASU is intended to clarify requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments, including convertible debt instruments with cash conversion features or convertible debt instruments that are not currently convertible, should be accounted for as an induced conversion. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this guidance effective April 1, 2026 and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent standards that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

NOTE 15 — TAXES

 

(a) Corporate Income Taxes (“CIT”)

 

Cayman Islands

 

Under the current tax laws of the Cayman Islands, the Company 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

 

Eshallgo HK is incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to profit taxes in Hong Kong at a rate of 8.25% on assessable profits up to HK$2,000,000, and 16.5% on any part of assessable profits over HK$2,000,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

PRC

 

Eshallgo WFOE, Junzhang Shanghai and Junzhang Beijing are incorporated in the PRC, and are subject to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Laws (“EIT Laws”) and are taxed at the statutory income tax rate of 25%, with special preferable tax holiday.

 

EIT grants 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 VIE, Junzhang Shanghai, is qualified as HNTE and has renewed its HNTE certificate in 2021. Therefore, Junzhang Shanghai is eligible to enjoy a preferential tax rate of 15% from 2021 to 2023 to the extent it has taxable income under the EIT Law. However, as Junzhang Shanghai was also qualified as a small low-profit enterprise, it chose to enjoy the preferential tax rate of 5% for small low-profit enterprises since the year ended March 31, 2024.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Junzhang Shanghai’s subsidiaries, are recognized as small low-profit enterprises. According to the relevant PRC tax policies, once an enterprise meets certain requirements and is identified as a small-scale minimal profit enterprise, the taxable income not more than RMB3 million is subject to a reduced effective rate of 5% during the period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2027.

 

The estimated tax savings as a result of the Company’s preferential tax rates for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $125,354 and $154,353, respectively. Per share effect of the tax savings were $0.01 and $0.01 for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. According to PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or withholding agent. The statute of limitations will be extended five years under special circumstances, which are not clearly defined (but an underpayment of tax liability exceeding RMB0.1 million is specifically listed as a special circumstance). In the case of a related party transaction, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion.

As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company’s PRC entities had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which will be available to offset future taxable income. As of September 30, 2024, these carryforwards will expire from 2025 through 2033, if not used. The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and reduces the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent it believes a portion will not be realized. Management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect the Company’s future realization of deferred tax assets including its recent cumulative earnings experience, expectation of future income, the carry forward periods available for tax reporting purposes and other relevant factors. The Company determined that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets derived from the net operating loss carried forward could not be realized due to uncertainty on future earnings in Junzhang Shanghai and some of its subsidiaries and the Company provided a 100% allowance for the deferred tax assets of these entities as of September 30, 2024.

As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any unrecognized uncertain tax positions and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months.

Statutory reserve and restricted net assets

 

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.

 

 


 

Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs 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 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S GAAP may differ from those in the statutory financial statements of the WFOE and VIEs. 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, Eshallgo WFOE and the VIEs are restricted in their ability to transfer their net assets to the Company. Foreign exchange and other regulations in the PRC may further restrict Eshallgo WFOE and the VIEs from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances.
