ADDENTAX GROUP CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

 

ATXG and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) are engaged in the business of garments manufacturing, providing logistic services, property leasing and management service in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”).

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of annual results.

 

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 29, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”).

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable, net are stated at the historical carrying amount net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Account receivables are classified as financial assets subsequently measured at amortized cost. Account receivables are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the receivables. They are measured, at initial recognition, at fair value plus transaction costs, if any and are subsequently measured at amortized cost. The amortized cost is the amount recognized on the receivable initially, minus principal repayments, plus cumulative amortization (interest) using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount, adjusted for any loss allowance.

 

A loss allowance for expected credit losses is recognized on account receivables and is updated at each reporting date. The Company determines the expected credit losses provisions based on ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (‘‘ASC 326’’) using a modified retrospective approach which did not have a material impact on the opening balance of accumulated deficit. To determine expected credit losses on account receivables, the Company will consider the historic credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions, and an assessment of both the current and forecasted direction of conditions at the reporting date, including the time value of money, where appropriate.

 

The loss allowance is calculated on a collective basis for all trade and other receivables in totality. An impairment gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of account receivables, through use of a loss allowance account. The impairment loss is included in operating expenses as a movement in credit loss allowance.

 

Receivables are written off when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g., when the counterparty has been placed under liquidation or has entered into bankruptcy proceedings. Receivables written off may still be subject to enforcement activities under the Company’s recovery procedures, considering legal advice where appropriate. Any recoveries made are recognized in profit or loss.

 

There is no change in the accounting policies for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

Accounting for Convertible Instruments: In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), as part of its overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. Among other changes, the new guidance removes from GAAP separation models for convertible debt that require the convertible debt to be separated into a debt and equity component, unless the conversion feature is required to be bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative or the debt is issued at a substantial premium. As a result, after adopting the guidance, entities will no longer separately present such embedded conversion features in equity and will instead account for the convertible debt wholly as debt. The new guidance also requires use of the “if-converted” method when calculating the dilutive impact of convertible debt on earnings per share, which is consistent with the Company’s current accounting treatment under the current guidance. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted, but only at the beginning of the fiscal year.

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

 

4. BUSINESS ACQUISITION

 

In September 2023, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest of Dongguan Hongxiang Commercial Co., Ltd (HX), an entity engaged in property management and subleasing services in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, for cash consideration of $438,470 (RMB3.2 million). The Company recognized gain on bargain purchase of $996. The acquisition has been accounted under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”. The results of HX’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since its acquisition date.

 

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition:

 SCHEDULE OF ASSETS ACQUIRED AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED

		September 5, 2023
Cash in bank		$	226,162
Other receivables			705,510
Fixed assets, net			58,493
Long-term prepayments			192,391
Advance from customers			(89,616	)
Payroll payable			(19,239	)
Other tax payable			(4,633	)
Other payables			(629,602	)
Net book value at acquisition date			439,466
Gain on bargain purchase			(996	)
Purchase price		$	438,470

 

Pro forma results of operation for this acquisition have not been presented because the effects of the acquisition were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial results.

15. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

On January 4, 2023, the Company entered into a series of agreements with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company received a net proceed of $15,000,000 in consideration of the issuance of:

 

	●	senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate original principal amount of approximately $16.7 million with interest rate of 5% per annum (the “Convertible Notes”); The Convertible Notes shall be matured on July 4, 2024. The conversion price is $1.25, subject to adjustment under several conditions.
	●	warrants to purchase up to approximately 16.1 million shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) until on or prior to 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the five-year anniversary of the closing date at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, also subject to adjustment under several conditions.

 

The Warrant is considered a freestanding instrument issued together with the Convertible Note and measured at its issuance date fair value. Proceeds received were first allocated to the Warrant based on its initial fair value. The initial fair value of the Warrant was $3.9 million. The Warrant were marked to the market with the changes in the fair value of warrant recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of September 30, 2023, the fair value of the Warrant was $268,435 (March 31, 2023: approximately $2.0 million).

 

The Convertible Note is classified as a liability and is subsequently stated at amortized cost with any difference between the initial carrying value and the repayment amount as interest expenses using the effective interest method over the period from the issuance date to the maturity date. The embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated and separately accounted for using fair value, as this embedded feature is considered not clearly and closely related to the debt host. The bifurcated conversion feature was recorded at fair value with the changes recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The initial fair value of the embedded conversion feature was $1.2 million.

 

The Company determined that the other embedded features do not require bifurcation as they either are clearly and closely related to the Convertible Note or do not meet the definition of a derivative.

 

The total proceeds of the Convertible Note and the Warrants, net of issuance cost, of $15.0 million was received by the Company in January 2023, and allocated to each of the financial instruments as following:

18. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

(a)	Economic and Political Risks

 

The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and 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 and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

 

(b)	Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s operating subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the RMB, all assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet date, which was 7.25 and 6.87 as of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average yearly exchange rates, which was 7.004 and 6.603 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustments to other comprehensive loss, a component of equity.

 

(c)	Concentration Risks

 

The followings are the percentages of accounts receivable balance of the top customers over accounts receivable for each segment as of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023.

 

 

Garment manufacturing segment

 SCHEDULE OF CONCENTRATION RISKS

Customer A			86.3	%			82.5	%
Customer B			10.4	%			9.9	%
Customer C			3.3	%			3.5	%

 

The high concentration as of September 30, 2023 was mainly due to business development of a large distributor of garments. Management believes that should the Company lose any one of its major customers, it was able to sell similar products to other customers.

 

Logistics services segment

 

		September 30, 2023				March 31, 2023
Customer A			21.6	%			11.4	%
Customer B			13.9	%			10.2	%

Overview

 

Our Business 

 

We (Addentax Group Corp.) are a Nevada holding company with no material operations of our own.

(“YX”), our wholly owned subsidiary and its subsidiaries. We are not a Chinese operating company. We are a holding company and do not directly own any substantive business operations in China. Therefore, our investors will not directly hold any equity interests in our operating companies. Our holding company structure involves unique risks to investors. Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our operating structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

Business Objectives

 

Garment Manufacturing Business

 

We believe the strength of our garment manufacturing business is mainly due to our consistent emphasis on exceptional quality and timely delivery of our products. The primary business objective for our garment manufacturing segment is to expand our customer base and improve our profit.

 

Logistics Services Business

 

The business objective and future plan for our logistics services segment is to establish an efficient logistic system and to build a nationwide delivery and courier network in China. As of September 30, 2023, we provide logistics services to over 86 cities in approximately seven provinces and two municipalities. We expect to develop an additional 20 logistics points in existing serving cities and improve the Company’s profit in the year 2024.

 

Property Management and Subleasing Business

 

The business objective of our property management and subleasing segment is to integrate resources in shopping mall, develop e-commerce bases and the Internet celebrity economy together to drive to increase the value of the stores in the area. The short-term goal for the year is to increase the occupancy rate of stores in the mall to more than 70%. In February 2023, the Company disposed of DY to an independent third party at fair value, which was also its carrying value as of February 28, 2023. In September 2023, we finished the acquisition of HX.

 

Seasonality of Business

 

Our business is affected by seasonal trends, with higher levels of garment sales during our second and third quarters and higher logistics services revenue during our third and fourth quarters. These trends primarily result from the timing of seasonal garment manufacturing shipments and holiday periods in the logistics services segment.

 

Collection Policy

 

Garment manufacturing business

 

For our new customers, we generally require orders placed to be backed by advances or deposits. For our long-term and established customers with good payment track records, we generally provide payment terms between 30 to 180 days following their acknowledgement of receipt of goods.

 

Logistics services business

 

For logistics services, we generally receive payments from the customers between 30 to 90 days following the date of the registration of our receipt of packages.

 

Property management and subleasing business

 

For property management and subleasing business, we generally collect rental and management fees of the following month each month in advance.

 

 

Economic Uncertainty

 

Our business is dependent on consumer demand for our products and services. We believe that the significant uncertainty in the economy in China has increased our clients’ sensitivity to the cost of our products and services. We have experienced continued pricing pressure. If the economic environment becomes weak, the economic conditions could have a negative impact on our sales growth and operating margins, cash position and collection of accounts receivable. Additionally, business credit and liquidity have tightened in China. Some of our suppliers and customers may face credit issues and could experience cash flow problems and other financial hardships. These factors currently have not had an impact on the timeliness of receivable collections from our customers. We cannot predict at this time how this situation will develop and whether accounts receivable may need to be allowed for or written off in the coming quarters.

 

Despite the various risks and uncertainties associated with the current economy in China, we believe our core strengths will continue to allow us to execute our strategy for long-term sustainable growth in revenue, net income and operating cash flow.

 

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified critical accounting policies that, as a result of judgments, uncertainties, uniqueness and complexities of the underlying accounting standards and operation involved could result in material changes to our financial position or results of operations under different conditions or using different assumptions.

 

Estimates and Assumptions

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is generated through sale of goods and delivery services. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount:

 

	(i)	identification of the promised goods and services in the contract;
	(ii)	determination of whether the promised goods and services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract;
	(iii)	measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;
	(iv)	allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and
	(v)	recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

 

 

The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon delivery.

 

For all reporting periods, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for all product and service revenue contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, which is an optional exemption that is permitted under the adopted rules.

 

Leases

 

Lessee

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, The Company generally use the incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Lessor

 

As a lessor, the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases under ASC 842. Leases, in which the Company is the lessor, are substantially all accounted for as operating leases and the lease components and non-lease components are accounted for separately. Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This standard will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounting for Convertible Instruments: In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), as part of its overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. Among other changes, the new guidance removes from GAAP separation models for convertible debt that require the convertible debt to be separated into a debt and equity component, unless the conversion feature is required to be bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative or the debt is issued at a substantial premium. As a result, after adopting the guidance, entities will no longer separately present such embedded conversion features in equity and will instead account for the convertible debt wholly as debt. The new guidance also requires use of the “if-converted” method when calculating the dilutive impact of convertible debt on earnings per share, which is consistent with the Company’s current accounting treatment under the current guidance. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted, but only at the beginning of the fiscal year.

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue

 

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by approximately $0.8 million, or 37.7%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2022.
