Exhibit 99.1

 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and

Shareholders of Ridgeline International Limited.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Ridgeline International Limited and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of March 31, 2024 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Note 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

Ridgeline International Limited (“Ridgeline,” or the “Company”) is a Hong Kong company, which is a holding company of Allright (Hangzhou) Internet Technology Co. Ltd (“Allright”) and does not otherwise engage in active operations.

 

Allright, established in April 2021 with a registered capital of 10 million Renminbi (“RMB”), is headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The company operates in the B2B sector, providing wholesale distribution and online sales through self-operated and third-party platforms, with a focus on pharmaceuticals, medical devices, health foods, cosmetics, and daily necessities.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the Company and each of the following entities:

 

Entity Name   Background   Ownership
Ridgeline   ● Incorporated in Hong Kong SAR on June 27, 2023     Holding
         
Allright   ● Established in PRC on April 19, 2021

● Registered capital of RMB 10 million

● Carries out pharmaceutical distribution services
  100%

 

Virtually all of the consolidated financial results (including revenue, profit, assets, and liabilities) are attributable to the operations of Allright. The contributions of other consolidated entity is immaterial to the Company’s financial position and performance.

 

Note 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation and consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates made in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements relate to the assessment of the carrying values of accounts receivable, related allowance for doubtful accounts, losses. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Fair value measurements

 

The Company establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable inputs, which may be used to measure fair value and include the following:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

F-5


 

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

   

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, advances to suppliers, other current assets, accounts payable, due to related parties, other current liabilities, short-term bank loans and bank acceptance notes payable approximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of longer term long-term bank loan and operating lease liabilities approximate their recorded values as their stated interest rates approximate the rates currently available.

 

Long-term investments

 

Long-term investments include equity investments. Equity investments include investments in common stock or in-substance common stock of entities. For those equity investments over which the Company can exercise significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or control, the equity method is applied, and the Company adjusts the carrying amount of an investment and recognizes investment income or loss for the Company’s share of the earnings or loss of the investee after the date of investment. For those equity investments accounted for other than under the equity method, the fair value method is applied. However, for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, the Company chooses to account for them at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. If this measurement alternative is elected, changes in the carrying value of the equity investments will be required to be made whenever there are observable price changes in transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Effective March 31, 2023, the Company began recognizing revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective transition method. The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The core principle of this new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

 

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation

 

F-6


 

In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:

 

The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct).

 

The entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).

 

If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.

 

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

 

The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time as appropriate.

 

The Company’s revenue is net of value added tax (“VAT”) collected on behalf of the PRC tax authorities with respect to the sales of merchandise. VAT collected from customers, net of VAT paid for purchases, is recorded as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until it is paid to the relevant PRC tax authorities.

 

Certain contract liabilities primarily represent the Company’s obligation to transfer additional goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration, for example, membership points. The consideration received remains a contract liability until goods or services have been provided to the retail customer. The estimated amount based on accrued membership points was deducted from sales revenue.

 

The following is a discussion of the Company’s revenue recognition policies by segment under the new revenue recognition accounting standard:

 

Offline Wholesale

 

Allright purchases medicine in quantity and distribute products primarily to local pharmacies and medical products dealers. Revenue from sales of merchandise to non-retail customers is recognized when the merchandise is transferred to customers. Historically, sales returns have been minimal.

 

The Company’s revenue is net of VAT collected on behalf of PRC tax authorities in respect to the sales of merchandise. VAT collected from customers, net of VAT paid for purchases, is recorded as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until it is paid to the relevant PRC tax authorities.

 

Online platform sales

 

Revenue from online platform sales is recognized when merchandise is shipped to customers. While most deliveries take one day, certain deliveries may take longer depending on a customer’s location. Any loss caused in a shipment will be reimbursed by the Company’s courier company. The Company’s sales policy allows for the return of certain merchandises without reason within seven days after a customer’s receipt of the applicable merchandise. Historically, sales returns seven days after merchandise receipts have been minimal.

 

F-7


 

Disaggregation of Revenue

 

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue in each segment for the year ended March 31, 2024:

 

    For the year ended
March 31,
2024
 
For the year ended March 31, 2024      
Revenue from offline wholesale   $ 63,968,288  
Revenue from online platform     14,392,417  
Total revenue   $ 78,360,705  

 

Restricted cash

 

The Company’s restricted cash consists of cash and long-term deposits in a bank as security for its notes payable. The Company has notes payable outstanding with the bank and is required to keep certain amounts on deposit that are subject to withdrawal restrictions. The notes payable are generally short term in nature due to their short maturity period of six to nine months; thus, restricted cash is classified as a current asset.

 

The following represents a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets to total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows as of March 31, 2024:

 

    March 31,
2024
 
Cash and cash equivalents   $ 1,613,848  
Restricted cash     4,089,442  
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash   $ 5,703,290  

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable represents the following: (1) amounts due from banks relating to wholesale sales that are paid or settled by the customers’ debit or credit cards, and (2) amounts due from non-bank third party payment instruments such as Alipay and certain e-commerce platforms.

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as necessary. In its offline wholesale business, the Company uses the expected credit loss method to estimate the allowance for anticipated uncollectible receivable balances. At each reporting period, the allowance balance is adjusted to reflect the amount computed as a result of the expected credit loss method. When facts subsequently become available to indicate that the allowance provided requires an adjustment, a corresponding adjustment is made to the allowance account as a change in estimate.

  

In the Company’s online platform business, accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from non-bank third party payment instruments such as Alipay and certain e-commerce platforms. To purchase pharmaceutical products from an e-commerce platforms such as Pharmacist Help, Yiyao Help and Yao Help, customers are required to submit payment to certain non-bank third party payment instruments, such as Alipay, which, in turn, reimburse the Company within seven days to a month. Except for customer returns of sold products, the receivables from these payments instruments are rarely uncollectible.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in first out (FIFO) method. The Company carries out physical inventory counts on a monthly basis and warehouse location. The Company periodically reviews its inventory and records write-downs to inventories for shrinkage losses and damaged merchandise that are identified. The Company provides a reserve for estimated inventory obsolescence or excess quantities on hand equal to the difference, if any, between the cost of the inventory and its estimated realizable value.

 

F-8


 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, taking into consideration the assets’ estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of lease term or remaining lease period of the underlying assets. Following are the estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment:

 

    Estimated
Useful Life
Office equipment & furniture   3-5 years

 

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expenses as incurred. Major additions and betterment to property and equipment are capitalized.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

The Company evaluates long lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. Recoverability is measured by comparing the assets’ net book value to the related projected undiscounted cash flows from these assets, considering a number of factors including past operating results, budgets, economic projections, market trends and product development cycles. If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. There was no impairment loss recognized for the year ended March 31, 2024.

 

Notes payable

 

During the normal course of business, the Company regularly issues bank acceptance bills as a payment method to settle outstanding accounts payables with various material suppliers. The Company records such bank acceptance bills as notes payable. Such notes payable are generally short term in nature due to their short maturity period of six to nine months.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates, applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The accounting standards clarify the accounting and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions and prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The accounting standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition. No significant penalties, uncertain tax provisions or interest relating to income taxes were incurred during the periods ended March 31, 2024.

 

Value added tax

 

Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of VAT. All of the Company’s products are sold in the PRC and are subject to a VAT on the gross sales price. The VAT rates range up to 13%, depending on the type of products sold. The VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing or acquiring its finished products. The Company recorded a VAT payable net of payments in the accompanying financial statements.

 

F-9


 

Foreign currency translation

 

The Company uses the United States dollar (“U.S. dollars” or “USD”) for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s subsidiaries maintain their books and records in their functional currency RMB, the currency of the PRC.

 

In general, for consolidation purposes, the Company translates the assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date, and the statements of income and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. As a result, 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 sheet. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements of the subsidiaries are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

The balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at March 31, 2024 were translated at 1 USD to 7.2203 RMB. The average translation rate applied to income and cash flow statement amounts for years ended March 31, 2024 was at 1 USD to 7.1671 RMB.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The 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 PRC economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.

 

The Company has significant cash deposits with suppliers in order to obtain and maintain inventory. The Company’s ability to obtain products and maintain inventory at existing and new locations is dependent upon its ability to post and maintain significant cash deposits with its suppliers. In the PRC, many vendors are unwilling to extend credit terms for product sales that require cash deposits to be made. The Company does not generally receive interest on any of its supplier deposits, and such deposits are subject to loss as a result of the creditworthiness or bankruptcy of the party who holds such funds, as well as the risk from illegal acts such as conversion, fraud, theft or dishonesty associated with the third party. If these circumstances were to arise, the Company would find it difficult or impossible, due to the unpredictability of legal proceedings in China, to recover all or a portion of the amount on deposit with its suppliers.

 

Concentrations and Credit Risk

 

Certain financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist of cash and restricted cash. The Company has cash balances at financial institutions located in Hong Kong and PRC. Balances at financial institutions in Hong Kong may, from time to time, exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board’s insured limits. Since March 31, 2015, balances at financial institutions and state-owned banks within the PRC are covered by insurance up to RMB 500,000 (USD 79,600) per bank. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had deposits totaling $5,692,781 covered by such limited insurance. Any balance over RMB 500,000 (USD79,600) per bank in PRC will not be covered. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

 

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company had three suppliers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total purchases from continuing operations, which were 33.9%, 15.9% and 12.4%, respectively. These suppliers are not affiliated with the Company.

Exhibit 99.3

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information presents the combination of the financial information of Ridgetech, Inc. (f/k/a China Jo-Jo Drugstores, Inc.) and its consolidated subsidiaries and former VIEs (the “Company” or “RDGT”) and Ridgeline International Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Ridgeline”) adjusted to give effect to the Restructuring Transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Defined terms included below have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

The historical financial information of RDGT was derived from its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025, included elsewhere in this prospectus, and reflects RDGT’s activity for the period from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025. As described in Note 5 - Discontinued Operations below, the audited historical financial statements already reflect the classification of Jiuxin Investment’s retail pharmacy operations as discontinued operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Restructuring Transactions as if they had occurred on April 1, 2024. The pro forma financial information has been adjusted to reflect the Restructuring Transactions, which includes Ridgeline’s activity for the period from April 1, 2024 to February 28, 2025. Because the Restructuring Transactions are already reflected in RDGT’s balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, a pro forma balance sheet is not included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

 

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial statements are for informational purposes only.

Note 1 - Description of The Restructuring Transactions

 

On February 28, 2025, the Company completed a strategic restructuring of its overall business, which included the divestiture of its retail pharmacy business and the acquisition of a pharmaceutical wholesale business. Pursuant to an Equity Exchange Agreement with Renovation, Mr. Lei Liu, Ms. Li Qi, and Oakview International Limited (“Oakview”), dated January 31, 2025, Renovation transferred all of the equity in Jiuxin Investment to Oakview in exchange for the irrevocable surrender, for no consideration, of an aggregate of 2,548,353 ordinary shares by Mr. Liu, Ms. Qi, Oakview and their affiliates back to the Company.

 

Concurrently, on January 31, 2025, the Company entered into an Equity Exchange Agreement with Mr. Lingtao Kong and Ridgeline, pursuant to which the Company acquired from Mr. Kong all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Ridgeline, the direct parent company of Allright, in exchange for the issuance of 2,225,000 ordinary shares of the Company to Mr. Kong.

 

The Restructuring Transactions were approved by the Company’s shareholders at the annual general meeting held on February 25, 2025, and closed on February 28, 2025. Following the consummation of the Divestiture, Jiuxin Investment and all entities owned or controlled by Jiuxin Investment, including Jiuzhou Pharmacy, Jiuzhou Clinic, and Jiuzhou Service, are owned or controlled indirectly by Mr. Liu and Ms. Qi. For further information regarding the accounting treatment of the Divestiture, see Note 5 - Discontinued Operations below.

 

As a result of the Restructuring Transactions, the Company now operates primarily in the wholesale business, selling pharmaceutical products to trading companies and other businesses.

 

Note 2 - Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been derived from the audited historical consolidated financial statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2025 of RDGT and the unaudited historical consolidated financial statements of operations for the eleven months ended February 28, 2025 of Ridgeline. Certain financial statement line items included in Ridgeline’s historical presentation have been disaggregated or condensed to conform to the corresponding financial statement line items included in RDGT’s historical presentation. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared as a business combination using the acquisition method, with RDGT treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes.

 

The pro forma adjustments do not include any transaction costs that may be associated with the Restructuring Transactions, as the amounts are not deemed to be material.

 

Note 3 - Accounting Policies

 

As part of preparing these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, RDGT conducted an initial review of the accounting policies of Ridgeline to determine if differences in accounting policies require reclassification of results of operations or reclassification of assets or liabilities to conform to RDGT’s accounting policies and classifications. During the preparation of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, RDGT did not become aware of any material differences between accounting policies of RDGT and Ridgeline except for certain reclassifications necessary to conform Ridgeline’s classification to RDGT’s financial statement presentation.

Note 4 - Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations

 

The pro forma transaction adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations are as follows:

 

(a) Reflects the consolidation of Ridgeline’s pre-acquisition historical operations pursuant to the Acquisition of Ridgeline;

 

(b) Reflects the elimination of sales between Jiuxin Medicine and Ridgeline, including revenue of approximately $22.38 million from Jiuxin Medicine’s sale to Ridgeline and revenue of approximately $5.53 million from Ridgeline’s sale to Jiuxin Medicine for the year ended March 31, 2025. These sales revenues and costs are eliminated in the unaudited pro forma financial statement since Ridgeline will be consolidated into RDGT’s financial statements after giving effect to the Acquisition assuming the Acquisition occurred on April 1, 2024.

 

Note 5 - Discontinued Operations

 

Pursuant to that certain Equity Exchange Agreement with Renovation, Mr. Lei Liu, Ms. Li Qi, and Oakview, dated January 31, 2025, Renovation transferred all equity in Jiuxin Investment to Oakview, in exchange for irrevocable surrender for no consideration by Mr. Liu, Ms. Qi, Oakview and their affiliates in total 2,548,353 ordinary shares back to the Company. On February 28, 2025, the Divestiture Transaction was consummated. In accordance with ASC Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements (“ASC 205”), Subtopic 20 - Discontinued Operations, the Company determined that Jiuxin Investment’s business qualified as a discontinued operation. Accordingly, the results of Jiuxin Investment have been presented as discontinued operations in the audited historical consolidated financial statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2025 of RDGT.

 

Management evaluated the presentation requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X in connection with the pro forma financial information. Because the Divestiture is already reflected as discontinued operations in the historical financial statements, and the only impact on the pro forma financial information is the removal of discontinued operations, a separate pro forma column would not provide additional meaningful information to investors and would duplicate disclosures already provided under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the effect of the Divestiture has been reflected within the historical results presented, rather than in a separate pro forma adjustment column.

 

Note 6 - Pro Forma Earnings Per Share

 

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to controlling interests presented are based on the historical weighted average number of shares outstanding of RDGT during the period, adjusted to give effect to the following transactions as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented:

 

(a) Acquisition: The issuance of 2,225,000 ordinary shares to consummate the Acquisition on February 28, 2025.

 

(b) Divestiture: The cancellation of 2,548,353 ordinary shares in connection with the Divestiture on February 28, 2025.

 

The net effect of these two transactions results in a reduction of 323,353 shares; when weighted for the period presented, this equates to a pro forma adjustment of 311,891 shares.

 

The pro forma diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities from the above Acquisition and Divestiture, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
