CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Organization and description of business

China Advanced Construction Materials Group, Inc. (“CADC Delaware”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 15, 2007. CADC Delaware, through its 100% owned subsidiaries and its variable interest entities (“VIEs”), is engaged in producing general ready-mix concrete, customized mechanical refining concrete, and other concrete-related products that are only sold in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). CADC Delaware has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the British Virgin Islands, Xin Ao Construction Materials, Inc. (“BVI-ACM”), which is a holding company with no operations. BVI-ACM has a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary, Beijing Ao Hang Construction Material Technology Co., Ltd. (“China-ACMH”), and China-ACMH has contractual agreements with Beijing XinAo Concrete Group (“Xin Ao”) and therefore Xin Ao is considered to be a VIE of China- ACMH.

Xin Ao is engaged in the business of concrete mixing services. Xin Ao had five wholly owned subsidiaries in the PRC: (1) Beijing Heng Yuan Zheng Ke Technical Consulting Co., Ltd, (2) Beijing Hong Sheng An Construction Materials Co., Ltd, (3) Beijing Heng Tai Hong Sheng Construction Materials Co., Ltd, (4) Da Tong Ao Hang Wei Ye Machinery, Equipment Rental Co., Ltd, and (5) Luan Xian Heng Xin Technology Co., Ltd. Since their establishment, none of these five entities had any operations and the Company did not plan to pursue operations for these entities. In February 2017 and prior, all five subsidiaries were dissolved.

On August 1, 2013, CADC Delaware consummated a reincorporation merger with its newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary, China Advanced Construction Materials Group, Inc. (“China ACM”), a Nevada corporation, with CADC Delaware merging into China ACM and China ACM being the surviving company, for the purpose of changing CADC Delaware’s state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada.

On August 20, 2018, CACM Group NY, Inc. (“CACM”) was incorporated in the State of New York and is 100% owned by China ACM. The establishment of CACM is to expand the Company’s construction material business in the New York. As of the date of the report, CACM has not commenced any operations.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

In July 2018, the Company adopted the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between the Company and China Advanced Construction Materials Group, Inc., an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“CADC Cayman”). The proposal was approved by the Company’s shareholders at its annual meeting on December 27, 2018.

China ACM, CADC Cayman, CACM, BVI-ACM, China-ACMH and Xin Ao are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies

Liquidity

In assessing the Company’s liquidity, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash on-hand and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company’s liquidity needs are to meet its working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations.

The Company engages in the production of advanced construction materials for large-scale infrastructure, commercial and residential developments. The Company’s business is capital intensive and the Company is highly leveraged. Debt financing in the form of short term bank loans, loans from related parties and bank acceptance notes have been utilized to finance the working capital requirements and the capital expenditures of the Company. The Company’s working capital was approximately $7.2 million as of September 30, 2018, as compared to $7.0 million as of June 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had cash on-hand of approximately $1.8 million, with remaining current assets mainly composed of accounts receivable and prepayments and advances.

 4

CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Although the Company believes that it can realize its current assets in the normal course of business, the Company’s ability to repay its current obligations will depend on the future realization of its current assets. Management has considered its historical experience, the economic environment, trends in the construction industry, the expected collectability of its accounts receivable and other receivables and the realization of the prepayments on inventory, and provided for an allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2018. The Company expects to realize the balance of its current assets net of the allowance for doubtful accounts within the normal operating cycle of twelve months. If the Company is unable to realize its current assets within the normal operating cycle of a twelve month period, the Company may have to consider supplementing its available sources of funds through the following:

● Equity financing.

● Other available sources of financing from PRC banks and other financial institutions, given the Company’s credit history.

● Financial support and credit guarantee commitments from Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers.

Based on the above considerations, the Company’s management is of the opinion that it has sufficient funds to meet the Company’s working capital requirements and debt obligations as they become due. However, there is no assurance that management will be successful in their plans. There are a number of factors that could potentially arise that could undermine the Company’s plans, such as changes in the demand for the Company’s products, economic conditions, competitive pricing in the concrete-mix industry, the Company’s operating results not improving, additional legal liabilities, or the inability of the Company’s bank and shareholders to provide continued financial support.

In addition, the Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and disputes related to its operations and the personal guarantees of its executives to affiliated entities. The Company is actively defending these actions and attempting to mitigate the Company’s exposure to any liability in excess of the current provision of approximately $4.8 million, (see Note 12 in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). The ultimate outcome of these pending actions cannot presently be determined, but currently management is of the opinion that any potential additional liability would not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position. Nevertheless, due to the uncertainties with litigation, the PRC legal system, claims and disputes, it is at least reasonably possible that management’s view of the outcome could change in the near term.

Furthermore, as of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments in the amount of approximately $13.7 million (see Note 12 in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) and the likelihood of the outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. These lawsuits involve the Company principally due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, because they are also the shareholders of Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the joint complaints. Xin Ao was not involved in most of the lawsuits but named as a joint defendant in the lawsuits. As a result, Xin Ao might have exposure to any judgements in the future under PRC laws.  Mr. Han and Mr. He have agreed to indemnify the Company for any amounts Xin Ao may have to pay.  Should the outcome of these lawsuits require Xin Ao to pay because the other co-defendants of the lawsuits and Mr. Han. and Mr. He were unable to liquidate their personal assets or their ownership interest in their privately held companies timely to pay for the judgements, the Company’s working capital as of September 30, 2018 could be reduced from approximately $7.2 million to a net working capital deficiency of approximately $6.5 million.

The management of the Company has considered whether there is a going concern issue due to the Company’s recurring losses from operations, the estimated claims charges and the possible additional exposure for pending actions against Company which is presently unknown. Based upon the personal indemnifications of Mr. Han and Mr. He and their agreement to provide the necessary funds to the Company to continue its operations should the need arise, the management of the Company believes that it has alleviated the going concern issue.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements include the accounts of all the directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries and VIEs listed below. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to give a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of a full year. The information in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 10, 2018.

CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Principles of consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the following subsidiaries and VIEs. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Subsidiaries and VIEs	Place incorporated	Ownership percentage
CADC Cayman	Cayman Islands		100	%
CACM	New York, USA		100	%
BVI-ACM	British Virgin Island		100	%
China-ACMH	Beijing, China		100	%
Xin Ao	Beijing, China		VIE

VIEs are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision-making ability.  The VIE with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIEs for financial reporting purposes.

Management makes ongoing assessments of whether China ACMH is the primary beneficiary of Xin Ao. Based upon a series of contractual arrangements, the Company determined that Xin Ao is a VIE subject to consolidation and that China ACMH is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the accounts of Xin Ao are consolidated with those of China ACMH.

The carrying amount of the VIE’s assets and liabilities are as follows:

	September 30,			June 30,
	2018			2018
	(unaudited)
Current assets	$	53,535,729		$	50,219,221
Property, plants and equipment		2,350,606			2,748,409
Total assets		55,886,335			52,967,630
Liabilities		(46,430,836	)		(43,372,069	)
Intercompany payables*		(7,377,238	)		(7,705,339	)
Total liabilities		(53,808,074	)		(51,077,408	)
Net assets	$	2,078,261		$	1,890,222

* Payables to China-ACMH and BVI-ACM have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The significant estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, deferred income taxes, prepayments and advances, stock-based compensation, contingent liabilities, fair value and useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could be materially different from those estimates.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of China ACM, CACM and BVI-ACM is the U.S. dollar. China-ACMH and Xin Ao use their local currency, the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”) as their functional currency. In accordance with U.S. GAAP guidance on Foreign Currency Translation, the Company’s results of operations and cash flows are translated at the average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Asset and liability accounts at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 were translated at RMB 6.87 and RMB 6.62 to USD$1.00, respectively. The average translation rates applied to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were RMB 6.81 and RMB 6.67 to USD$1.00, respectively.

Translation gains (losses) that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations. There were no foreign currency transaction gains or losses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included in shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Revenue recognition

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not completed as of July 1, 2018. The core principle underlying revenue recognition is that the Company recognizes its revenue to represent the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer.  The Company’s revenue streams are primarily recognized at a point in time, principally upon delivery.

The ASU 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. The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way the Company records its revenue. Upon adoption, the Company evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no material differences in the pattern of revenue recognition.

Sales of concrete products

The Company continues to derive its revenues from sales contracts with its customers with revenues being recognized upon delivery of products. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via sales contract and invoice; and the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the sales contract and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Such revenues are recognized at a point in time after all performance obligations are satisfied and based on when control of goods transfer to a customer, which is generally similar to when its delivery has occurred prior to July 1, 2018.

Financial instruments

US GAAP, regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 7

CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The three levels of inputs are defined 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, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument;

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts and notes receivable, net

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the normal course of business. Accounts are considered past due after 30 days. In establishing the required allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical experience, the economic environment, trends in the construction industry and the expected collectability of the overdue receivables. Management reviews its accounts receivable each reporting period to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovering is considered remote. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts provision of 15% for accounts receivable balances that are past due more than 180 days but less than one year, an allowance for doubtful accounts provision of 40% of for accounts receivable past due from one to two years, an allowance for doubtful accounts provision of 75% for accounts receivable past due beyond two years, an allowance for doubtful accounts provision of 100% for accounts receivable past due beyond three years, plus additional amounts as necessary when the Company’s collection department determines the collection of the full amount is remote and the Company’s management approves 100% of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company’s management has continued to evaluate the reasonableness of its valuation allowance policy and will update it if necessary.

Notes receivable represents commercial notes due from various customers where the customers’ banks have guaranteed the payments. The notes are noninterest bearing and normally paid within three to six months. The Company has the ability to submit requests for payments to the customer’s banks earlier than the scheduled payments date, but will incur an interest charge and a processing fee.

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market, as determined using the weighted average cost method. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventory to its net realizable value, if lower than cost. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company determined that no allowance was necessary.

Other receivables

Other receivables primarily include prepayments to be refunded by our suppliers if the supplies do not meet the Company’s specification needs, advances to employees, amounts due from unrelated entities refundable, VAT tax and other deposits. Management regularly reviews the aging of these receivables and changes in payment trends and records an allowance when management believes collection of amounts due are at risk. Accounts considered uncollectible are written off against the allowance after exhaustive efforts at collection are made. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts of 5% for other receivables balances that are aged within one year, an allowance for doubtful accounts of 50% for other receivables aged from one to two years, and an allowance for doubtful accounts of 100% for other receivables aged beyond two years.

Prepayments and advances

Prepayments are funds deposited or advanced to outside vendors for future inventory purchases. As is standard practice in the PRC, many of the Company’s vendors require a certain amount to be deposited with them as a guarantee that the Company will complete its purchases on a timely basis. This amount is refundable and bears no interest. The Company has legally binding contracts with its vendors, which require any outstanding prepayments to be returned to the Company when such contracts end. The Company provides a provision of 5% of the allowance for doubtful accounts for prepayments and advances that are aged from six months to one year and 10% of the allowance for doubtful accounts for prepayments and advances aged beyond one year.

The Company reversed an allowance of approximately $0.3 million and provided an allowance of approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company did not write off any unrealizable prepayments for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while additions, renewals and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of depreciable assets and is computed using the straight-line method with a 5% residual value. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of estimated useful lives or remaining lease terms, as appropriate.

The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

	Useful life
Transportation equipment	7-10 years
Plants and machinery	10 years
Office equipment	5 years
Buildings and improvements	3-20 years

Accounting for long-lived assets

The Company classifies its long-lived assets into: (i) transportation equipment; (ii) plants and machinery; (iii) office equipment; and (iv) buildings and improvements.

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. It is possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technological or other industry changes. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group to be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

If the value of an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value, less disposition costs.

There were no impairment charges for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Competitive pricing pressures and changes in interest rates could materially and adversely affect the Company’s estimates of future net cash flows to be generated by the long-lived assets, and thus could result in future impairment losses.

Stock-based compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation expense for employees at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of an option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s current and expected dividend policy.

The Company records stock-based compensation expense for non-employees at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense over the service provider’s requisite service period.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the Company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Under this accounting standard, the effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” defines uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position as a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. United States federal, state and local income tax returns prior to 2015 are not subject to examination by any applicable tax authorities. PRC tax returns filed for calendar years ended December 31, 2015 to 2017 are subject to examination by any applicable tax authorities.

Value Added Tax

Enterprises or individuals who sell commodities, engage in repair and maintenance, or import and export goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax. The standard VAT rate for the Company’s industry is 3% of gross sales, and revenues are presented net of VAT.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The cost of materials and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities, and have alternative future uses, either in research and development, marketing, or sales, are classified as property and equipment, and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Earnings (loss) per share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts, such as warrants, options, restricted stock based grants and convertible preferred stock, to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Common stock equivalents having an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

 10

CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. When the Company has a loss, no potential dilutive items are included since they would be antidilutive.

Stock dividends or stock splits are accounted for retroactively if the stock dividends or stock splits occur during the period, or retroactively if the stock dividends or stock splits occur after the end of the period but before the release of the financial statements, by considering it effective as of the beginning of each period presented.

Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update will require the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For operating leases, the asset and liability will be expensed over the lease term on a straight-line basis, with all cash flows included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability will be recognized separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income and the repayment of the principal portion of the lease liability will be classified as a financing activity while the interest component will be included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, leases will be recognized and measured at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 8 – Income taxes

(a) Corporate income tax

China ACM and CACM were incorporated in the United States. China ACM and CACM had no taxable income for United States income tax purposes for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of September 30, 2018, China ACM and CACM’s net operating loss carry forward for United States income taxes was approximately $0.5 million. The net operating loss carry forwards are available to reduce future years’ taxable income through year 2038. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company’s operating history and continued losses in the United States. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset to reduce the asset to zero. Management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes changes accordingly.

On December 22, 2017, the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (“The Act”) was enacted. Under the provisions of the Act, the U.S. corporate tax rate decreased from 35% to 21%. As the Company has a June 30 fiscal year-end, the lower corporate income tax rate will be phased in, resulting in a U.S. statutory federal rate of approximately 28% for our fiscal year ending June 30, 2018, and 21% for subsequent fiscal years. Accordingly, we have adjusted our deferred tax assets on net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S at the lower enacted tax rate of 21%. However, this adjustment has no effect on the Company’s income tax expense as the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets previously.

Additionally, the Tax Act imposes a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of historical earnings of foreign subsidiaries, and future foreign earnings are subject to U.S. taxation. However, this one-time transition tax had no effect on the Company’s income tax expense as the Company has no undistributed foreign earnings prior to December 31, 2017 because the Company has had foreign losses through the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

BVI-ACM was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”), where its income tax rate is 0% under current BVI law.

China-ACMH and VIE-Chinese operations

China-ACMH and Xin Ao are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC. Income tax provisions with respect to operations in the PRC are calculated at the applicable tax rates on the taxable income for the periods based on existing legislation, interpretations and practices in respect thereof. Under the Chinese Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law, the statutory corporate income tax rate applicable to most companies is 25%. In 2009, Xin Ao applied and received an Enterprise High-Tech Certificate. The High-Tech Certificate is required to be renewed every 3 years. The certificate was awarded based on Xin Ao’s involvement in producing high-tech products, its research and development, as well as its technical services. As granted by the State Administration of Taxation of the PRC, Xin Ao was entitled to a reduction in its income tax rate from 25% to 15% until July 21, 2018. The Company has completed the application for the updated certificate as of the report date and obtained the approval notice and is waiting for the official certificate.

The EIT Law imposes a 10% withholding income tax, subject to reduction based on tax treaties where applicable, for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China. Such dividends were exempted from PRC tax under the previous income tax laws and regulations. The Company intends to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings of its Chinese operations located in the PRC. As a result, there is no deferred tax expense related to withholding tax on the future repatriation of these earnings.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Significant components of deferred tax assets were as follows:

Deferred tax assets	(unaudited)
Allowance for doubtful accounts	$	2,870,345		$	2,972,087

Net operating loss carryforward in the U.S.		94,413			62,852
Valuation allowance		(4,204,220	)		(4,185,616	)
Total net deferred tax assets	$	-		$	-

As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company believes it is more likely than not that its PRC operations will be unable to fully utilize its deferred tax assets related to its allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment loss of long-lived assets and the net operating loss carryforwards in the PRC. If the Company is unable to generate taxable income in its PRC operations, it is more likely than not that it will not have sufficient income to utilize its deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward in the PRC that expires in 2022. As a result, the Company provided a 100% allowance on all deferred tax assets of approximately $4.1 million and $4.1 million related to its operations in the PRC as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

The Company has incurred losses from its United States operations during all periods presented. Accordingly, management provided approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million of valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets related to the Company’s United States operations as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively, because the deferred tax benefits of the net operating loss carry forward in the United States might not be utilized. 

As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had $136,969 and $178,190 of other business taxes (principally VAT) payable, respectively.

(b) Uncertain tax positions

There were no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018. Management does not anticipate any potential future adjustments which would result in a material change to its tax positions. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not incur any tax related interest or penalties.

Note 10 – Reserves and dividends

The laws and regulations of the PRC require that before a foreign invested enterprise can legally distribute profits, it must first satisfy all its tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations, in proportions determined at the discretion of the board of directors, after setting aside the required statutory reserves. Statutory reserves include the surplus reserve fund and the common welfare fund.

The Company is required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the remaining reserve to fulfill the 50% registered capital requirement amounted to approximately $0.8 million as of each of the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Transfers to statutory reserves must be made before the distribution of any dividends to the Company’s shareholders. The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation. The surplus reserve fund can however be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

The PRC government restricts distributions of registered capital and the additional investment amounts required by foreign invested enterprises. Approval by the PRC government must be obtained before distributions of these amounts can be returned to the shareholders.

Note 11 – Employee post-retirement benefits

The Company offers a defined contribution plan to eligible employees which consists of two parts: (i) the first part, paid by the Company, is 20% of the employee’s compensation from the prior year and (ii) the second part, paid by the employee, is 8% of the employee’s compensation. The Company’s contributions of employment benefits were approximately $0.5 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Guarantee

In April 2018, the Company guaranteed approximately $10.0 million (RMB 69,000,000) that a related-party borrowed from the bank:

Name of party being guaranteed	Guaranteed amount		Guarantee expiration date
Beijing Lianlv (borrower)	$	10,045,000	April 11, 2019

The Company did not, however, accrue any liability in connection with such guarantee because the borrower has been current in its repayment obligation. As of the date of this report, the Company has evaluated the guarantee and has concluded that the likelihood of having to make any payments under the guarantee agreement is remote.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to or arise from, commercial disputes, labor contract complaints and sales contract complaints. The Company accrues costs related to these matters when they become probable and as a result the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated (See Dispute Matters Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business for more information). In determining whether a loss from a claim is probable, and if it is possible to estimate the loss, the Company reviews and evaluates its litigation and regulatory matters on at least a quarterly basis in light of potentially relevant factual and legal developments. If the Company determines a favorable outcome is probable, or that the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company does not accrue costs for a potential litigation loss. In those situations, the Company discloses an estimate of the probable losses or a range of possible losses, if such estimates can be made as indicated below (See Legal Matters). Currently, except as otherwise noted below, the Company does not believe that it is possible to estimate the potential losses incurred or a range of reasonably possible losses related to the outstanding claims.  Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits for which the Company estimated that it is more than likely to pay judgments in the amount of approximately $4.8 million (including interest and penalty of $0.8 million). These amounts are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (See Accrued Contingent Liabilities). During the three months ended September 30, 2018, additional estimated claims charges of approximately $0.6 million principally for interest and penalties on existing claims which are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Estimated claims charges”.

As of the date of this 10-Q, the Company’s management does not expect any other material liability from the disposition of claims from litigation individually, or in the aggregate that would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Due to the Company’s operations in the PRC and the legal environment in the PRC, it is possible that the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao could be named as a defendant in litigation based upon the guarantees of Mr. Han and Mr. He and/or their related parties.

(i) Disputes Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $4.8 million in accrued contingent liabilities, net of amounts paid by a related party of approximately $1.3 million, and approximately $0.6 million of additional estimated claims charges for the three months ended September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, further details regarding the type of litigation disputes and accrued costs associated with the claims are summarized as follows:

The major legal cases are summarized as follows:

1) Guarantee

In December 2016, the Company guaranteed approximately $2.1 million (RMB 14,736,000) that a third-party borrowed from a bank:

Name of party being guaranteed	Guaranteed amount		Guarantee expiration date
Tangshan Long Tang Trading Co., Ltd	$	2,145,296	December 29, 2017

This loan has not paid as of the date of this report. As of the date of this report, the Company has evaluated the guarantee and has concluded that the likelihood of having to make any payments under the guarantee agreement is probable. The Company accrued approximately $2.1 million contingent liability in connection with such guarantee as of June 30, 2018.

2) Sales dispute

(a) On August 10, 2017, Guowang International Finance Leasing Co. Ltd. (“Gouwang”) filed a lawsuit against Xin Ao in People’s Court of Nankai District, Tianjin Province (“Nankai Court”) to seek compensatory damages in connection with Xin Ao’s failure to make payments under a financing lease agreement. On October 23, 2017, Nankai Court ruled against Xin Ao and rendered a judgement to award damages in an amount of RMB 9,168,463 (approximately US$1.3 million) to Guowang (the “Decision”). On September 26, 2018, Xin Ao appealed to the Decision which was rejected in its entirety with prejudice. As of date of this report, Xin Ao has not made any payment. This agreement was initially entered into by Xin Ao for the benefit of a related party that is owned by the Company’s officers/major shareholders. Accordingly, the Company accrued approximately $1.3 million as a liability and a corresponding “Other Receivable – Related Party” in the same amount. Should the entity not repay the Company, the officers/major shareholders have agreed to indemnify the Company for any unpaid amounts.

(b) On April 30, 2016, China Black Metal Materials Beijing Co., Ltd (“China Black Metal”) filed a lawsuit against Xin Ao and Beijing Jinshengding Mineral Products Co., Ltd. (“Jinshengding”) in connection with their failure to make payments under a lease agreement. The court ruled that effective December 28, 2016, the lease agreement was void and Xin Ao and/or Jinshengding shall make payment to China Black Metal which shall include rent due from December 4, 2015 to December 28, 2016 in an amount of RMB 1,572,669, plus interest, expenses for utilities in an amount of RMB 271,579 (approximately US$40,000), penalty under the agreement of RMB 250,000 (approximately US$36,000), legal fees of RMB 73,238 (approximately US$11,000) and rent due from December 28, 2016 to September 30, 2018 of RMB 2,264,329 (approximately US$0.3 million). The total amount of compensation is RMB 4,431,816 (approximately US$0.6 million). As of date of this report, Jinshengding has paid RMB 1,800,000 (approximately US$0.3 million) out of the total compensation.

(ii) Legal matters

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments in the amount of approximately $13.7 million and the likelihood of the outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined as of the date of this report. These lawsuits involved with the Company were mainly due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, and of which they are also the shareholders of Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the joint complaints. Xin Ao was not involved in some of the lawsuits but named as a joint defendant in the lawsuits. As a result, Xin Ao might have exposure to the pending judgements in the future under PRC laws.

The major legal cases are summarized as follows:

1) Claims Resulting from Executives’ Personal Guarantee to Affiliated Entities

(a) Mr. Xianfu Han, the CEO and director of the Company and a shareholder of Xin Ao, Mr. Weili He, the interim CFO and director of the Company and a shareholder of Xin Ao, and Xin Ao (the “Defendants”) were parties to a lawsuit filed on June 23, 2017, by China Cinda Asset Management Co., Ltd. Beijing Branch (“Cinda Beijing Branch”) in the Beijing First Intermediate People’s Court (the “Beijing Intermediate Court”) to seek compensatory damages, liquidated damages, costs, and attorney’s fees for default in a certain loan repayment. The loan agreement was entered into by and between Xin Ao Ecological Construction Materials Co., Ltd. (“Borrower”) and Cinda Beijing Branch dated as of June 23, 2014 with Mr. Han and Mr. He acting as the guarantors for such loans (the “Guarantors”). Mr. Han and Mr. He together are the controlling shareholders of the Borrower, holding an aggregate of 60% equity interests of the Borrower. The aggregate amount of the loan was RMB288,506,497 (approximately US$42.0 million)  with interest at 12.8% per annum (the “Loan”). Cinda Beijing Branch alleged that since the Borrower breached its obligation to make the repayment of the Loan on the maturity date, the Guarantors, along with Xin Ao and those entities owned or controlled by the Guarantors, should be brought into the lawsuit as co-defendants (the “Defendants”). On July 5, 2017, Beijing Intermediate Court ruled in favor of Cinda Beijing Branch and issued a judgment for execution to freeze the Defendants’ assets, an aggregate amount of RMB 304,972,608 (approximately US$44.4 million) which shall be used for the repayment of the Loan, the liquidated damages, the interest on the Loan, and other costs and expenses undertaken by Cinda Beijing Branch. Following the mediation, China Cinda Asset Management Co., Ltd. (“Cinda”), two shareholders of Da Tong Lianlv Technologies Co., Ltd. (“Datong Lianlv”), Beijing Ao Huan Fund Management Co., Ltd. (“Ao Huan”), and Shou Tai Jin Xin (Chang Xing) Investment Management Co., Ltd (“Jin Xin”) entered into a certain limited partnership agreement (the “Partnership Agreement”) on December 22, 2017 to settle the lawsuit. Datong Lianlv is an affiliate of the Company and Xin Ao. Cinda is the parent company of Cinda Beijing Branch. As provided in the Partnership Agreement, the distributions of the limited partnership shall be allocated to Cinda first, who made a capital contribution in the form of its rights, title and interests in and to the repayment of the Loan in an aggregate amount of RMB 322,435,300 (approximately US$46.9 million) (the “Capital Contribution”). Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, payment shall be made until Cinda has received an amount equal to the aggregate of its unreturned Capital Contributions and a cumulative distribution equal to 7.5% of all distributions made. Datong Lianlv made its capital contribution in cash in an aggregate amount of RMB 150,000,000 (approximately US$21.8 million) along with its shareholders consent to transfer 99% of Datong Lianlv’s equity interests to the limited partnership. The PRC legal counsel of Xin Ao indicated that Cinda and Cinda Beijing Branch orally confirmed that this claim was fully settled in the form of the Partnership Agreement. In February 2018, the Cinda Beijing Branch filed an enforcement order with the court as the partnership had not been formed at that time. The partnership was subsequently formed in March 2018. No attempt to collect payment from Xin Ao has been made since the enforcement order was filed in February 2018.   Based upon the legal opinion issued by the Company’s PRC legal counsel, Xin Ao believes a favorable outcome is probable of the exposure to the pending judgements as the enforcement order has been resolved with the establishment of the Partnership.

(b) On July 11, 2018, Chengde County Rural Cooperatives Credit Union (the “Credit Union”) filed an arbitration demand (“Arbitration Demand”) with the People’s Court of Shuangqiao District, Chengde, Hebei Province (“Shuangqiao Court”) against certain entities and individuals (collectively the “Respondent”) including Xin Ao and Chengde Tianhang Concrete Co Ltd.

Given that Mr. Weili He acted as the guarantor for such loan, Mr. He was brought into the lawsuit as one of the co-defendants. Since Mr. He is one of the controlling shareholders of Xin Ao, Xin Ao was also brought into the lawsuit as one of the co-defendants. The Court rendered a judgement in May 2018, ruling that

1) Beijing Lianlv shall pay Yong Fan the damages in an amount of RMB 2.895 million (approximately US$0.4 million) as principal of the loan and an amount of RMB32,400 (approximately US$5,000) as interest of the loan (the amount of expected interest was computed with a simple rate of 24%per annum.

Beijing Chengda stated that on January 24, 2014 both parties entered into a lease agreement (the “Agreement”). A lease addendum was later entered into on February 25, 2014. The Agreement provided that, effective from July 18, 2013 to April 30, 2018, XinAo shall rent Beijing Chengda’s property, the Concrete Station, and assume all credits and debts incurred during the term of the lease agreement. Mr. Xianfu Han and Mr. Weili He signed a personal guaranty agreement with Xin Ao to undertake the liabilities of Xin Ao in the event of its breach on the lease agreement. On March 31, 2017, Beijing Chengda was sued by Beijing Zhongtong Jiang Xin’hang Construction Materials Co., Ltd for an unpaid balance in an amount of RMB 6,246,059 (approximately US$0.9 million in total) in connection with utilizing the Concrete Station. Beijing Chengda then brought a lawsuit against Xin Ao for the payment of such unpaid balance together with the legal fees in connection with the lawsuit. The case is still under review by the court, and no potential judgment amount has been decided.

4) Labor disputes

During 2017, Sihong was subject to certain labor disputes. The potential total amounts of judgment is around RMB 1,701,979 (approximately US$0.2 million). Mr. Xianfu Han and Mr. Weili He are the shareholders of Sihong. Since Mr. Han and Mr. He are the controlling shareholders of Xin Ao, Xin Ao was also brought into the lawsuit as a co-defendant. As of the date of the report, Sihong has not made any payment. 

Employment Agreements

The Company has employment agreements with its two executive officers, Mr. Han and Mr. He from July 1, 2017 until June 30, 2020.  Each agreement calls for an annual base salary of $360,000 plus bonus, if any. If employment is terminated for death, disability or for cause, they are entitled to any unpaid base salary, vacation, bonus for the fiscal year ending on or prior to the date of termination and unreimbursed expenses through the date of termination. If employment is terminated for no cause, they will be entitled to the benefits previously mentioned plus two months additional base salary and continued medical benefits in accordance with the Company’s plan subject to the execution (and non-revocation) of a general release of claims against the Company and its affiliates.

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On July 5, 2018, the Company received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, since the Company has not yet held an annual meeting of stockholders within twelve months of the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5620(a) and 5810(c)(2)(G).

The notification received has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has until August 20, 2018 to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the Company’s plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from September 30, 2018, or December 27, 2018, to regain compliance.

The Company submitted its compliance plan on July 31, 2018 to the Staff. On August 8, 2018, the Staff, considering the Company was proposing to seek shareholder approval to re-domicile the Company in the Cayman Islands, determined to grant the Company an extension until December 27, 2018 to regain compliance with the Rule by holding an annual meeting of shareholders. The Company has remediated this condition on December 27, 2018 by holding such meeting. The Company is still in the process of bringing delinquent filings current.

CHINA ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 13 – Concentrations of risk

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk from its cash in bank and fixed deposits, and accounts and notes receivable, other receivables and advances on equipment purchases.

As of September 30, 2018, approximately $0.9 million was on deposit with a bank located in the PRC subject to credit risk. In China, the insurance coverage of each bank is RMB 500,000 (approximately USD $73,000). As of September 30, 2018, approximately $0.2 million was on deposit with a bank located in the US subject to credit risk. In the US, the insurance coverage of each bank is USD $250,000. Management believes that the credit risk on cash in bank and fixed deposits is limited because the counterparties are recognized financial institutions.

Accounts receivable, other receivables and advances on inventory purchases are subjected to credit evaluations. An allowance has been made for estimated unrecoverable amounts which have been determined by reference to past default experience and the current economic environment.

Customer Concentration Risk

For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company had one customer accounting for approximately 10.2% of total revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company had two customers accounting for approximately 14.6% and 11.2% of total revenue. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the total balance of accounts receivable. As September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the total accounts receivable for top five customers is approximately $8.1 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company had two vendors each accounting for approximately 14.7% of total purchases, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, no vendor accounted for more than 10% of total purchases. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, no vendor accounted for more than 10% of the total balance of accounts payable.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS.

Overview

We are a holding company whose primary business operations are conducted through our wholly-owned subsidiaries CACM Group NY Inc. (“CACM”), Xin Ao Construction Materials, Inc. (“BVI-ACM”), Beijing Ao Hang Construction Material Technology Co., Ltd. (“China-ACMH”), and our variable interest entity, Beijing XinAo Concrete Group (“Xin Ao”) and its subsidiaries. We engage in the production and supply of advanced construction materials for large-scale commercial, residential, and infrastructure developments, and are primarily focused on producing and supplying a wide range of advanced ready-mix concrete materials for highly technical, large-scale, and environmentally-friendly construction projects that are only sold in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we supplied materials and provided services to our projects through one ready-mix concrete plant in Beijing.

Our management believes that we have the ability to capture a greater share of the Beijing market via expanding relationships and networking, signing new contracts, and continually developing market-leading innovative and eco-friendly ready-mix concrete products.

Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

We believe that the following factors will continue to affect our financial performance:

- Large-Scale Contractor Relationships. We have contracts with major construction contractors that are constructing key infrastructure, commercial and residential projects. Our sales efforts focus on large-scale projects and large customers which place large recurring orders and present less credit risk to us. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, one customer accounted for approximately 10.2% our sales. Should we lose any large-scale customers in the future and are unable to obtain additional customers, our revenues will suffer.

- Experienced Management. Management’s technical knowledge and business relationships give us the ability to secure major infrastructure projects, which provides us with leverage to acquire less sophisticated operators, increase production volumes, and implement quality standards and environmentally sensitive policies. If there were to be any significant turnover in our senior management, it could deplete the institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team.

- Innovation Efforts. We strive to produce the most technically and scientifically advanced products for our customers and maintain close relationships with Tsinghua University, Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology and Beijing Dongfang Jianyu Institute of Concrete Science & Technology. We entered into technical service contracts with these research institutes to further improve our production and products. If our research and development efforts are not sufficient to adapt to the change in technology in the industry, our products may not compete effectively.

- Competition. Our competition includes a number of state-owned and large private PRC-based manufacturers and distributors that produce and sell products similar to ours. We compete primarily on the basis of quality, technological innovation and price. Essentially, all of the contracts on which we bid are awarded through a competitive bidding process, with award contracts usually being made to the lowest bidder, though other factors such as shorter delivery schedules or prior experience with the customer are often just as important. Within our markets, we compete with many national, regional and local state-owned and private construction entities some of which have achieved greater market penetration or have greater financial and other resources than us. In addition, there are a number of larger national companies in our industry that could potentially establish a presence in our market and compete with us for contracts. If we are unable to compete successfully in our market, our relative market share and profits could be reduced.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

The following table sets forth key components of our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, in US dollars:

	Three months ended

Net loss	$	(927,228	)	$	(2,990,588	)	$	2,063,360			(69	)%

Revenue. Our revenue is primarily generated from sales of our advanced ready-mix concrete products. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, we generated revenue of approximately $13.1 million, as compared to approximately $13.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of approximately $0.7 million, or 5%. The decrease in revenue was principally due to the decreased sales volume of products by 16.0% from 251,568 units dropped to 211,230 units. Compared to the same period in 2017, there were fewer construction jobsites and smaller construction areas during the three months ended September 30, 2018, so our sales volume dropped. The decrease was also due to the depreciation of Chinese Reminbi (“RMB”) against the U.S. dollar of 2.1%. The decrease was partially offset by the increased selling price of 15.4% resulting from the turnaround of the concrete industry. In late 2017, the local government shut down a number of small and non-qualified concrete manufactures, which led to less competition in the industry and drove up the selling price of the concrete as the supply of concrete was reduced. Therefore, the average market price increased starting from October 2017 and has been remained consistent since.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue, which consists of direct labor, rentals, depreciation, other overhead and raw materials, including inbound freight charges, was approximately $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to approximately $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of approximately $1.5 million, or 12%. The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily associated with the decrease in our sales volume mainly due to the decreased construction needs as discussed above partially offset by the increase of unit production costs of 6.9%, which was principally caused by unit price inflation of our raw materials, such as cement, sand, slag powder and mine powder for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was approximately $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to approximately $1.4 million of gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a positive change of approximately $0.8 million, which was primarily due to the increase only partially offset by the slight increase of unit production cost during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 for the reasons as discussed above.

Provision for Doubtful Accounts. We had a provision for doubtful accounts of approximately $33,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to a provision of approximately $160,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of approximately $127,000, or 79%. The change was attributable to the fact that we collected more of our aged other receivables that were over 180 days past due during the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 which resulted in a reduction of previously provided allowances in accordance with our policy. The decrease was also attribute to the decrease of the provision of doubtful accounts of account receivables and prepayments as we had lesser past due accounts receivable and prepayments accounts as of September 30, 2018 as compared to the same period of last year, which result in a decrease of the provision for doubtful accounts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of sales commissions, advertising and marketing costs, office rent and expenses, costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities, and professional fees paid to third parties. We incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to approximately $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $0.1 million. The increase was primarily due to the approximately $45,000 increase in board of director fees and approximately $80,000 increase in salary and social insurance expense. The increase was offset by approximately $20,000 decrease in professional fees such as audit, legal and consulting as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017.

 27

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses were approximately $74,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $91,000 for the same period in 2017.

Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation Cost. Deferred stock compensation cost was approximately $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as the service provider has started to provide certain business consulting services and we need to amortize the cost of the stock we issued to them on June 28, 2018.

Loss from Operations. We incurred a loss from operations of approximately $0.1 million and a loss of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease of approximately $0.1 million was primarily due to the reasons previously discussed.

Other (Expense), Net. Our other (expense) net consists of interest income (expense), finance expenses and other non-operating income (expense). We had other expense of approximately $1,000 and $2,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We earned interest income of approximately $600 and $2,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Approximately $260,000 and $328,000 of interest expense was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and approximately $4,000 and $2,000 of finance expense was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Approximately $0.6 million and $2.4 million of estimated claims charges (including interest) were recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, due to legal actions related to several lawsuits against Xin Ao.

Provision for Income Taxes. We did not incur income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 as we had net operating losses.

Net Loss. We incurred net loss of approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to a net loss of approximately $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. This change was the result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.8 million, which was held by our consolidated PRC subsidiaries and VIE located outside the U.S. Any company which is registered in mainland PRC must apply to the State Foreign Exchange Administration for approval in order to remit foreign currency to any foreign country. We currently do not intend to repatriate to the U.S. the cash and short-term investments held by our foreign subsidiaries. However, if we were to repatriate funds to the U.S., we would assess the feasibility and plan any transfer in accordance with foreign exchange regulations, taking into account tax consequences. As we conduct all of our operations in the PRC, the restriction on the conversion of cash and short-term investments held in RMB to other currencies should not affect our liquidity.

In assessing our liquidity, we monitor and analyze our cash on-hand and our operating and capital expenditure commitments. Our liquidity needs are to meet our working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations.

We engage in the production of advanced construction materials for large-scale infrastructure, commercial and residential developments. Our business is capital intensive and we are highly leveraged. Debt financing in the form of short-term bank loans, loans from related parties and bank acceptance notes, have been utilized to finance our working capital requirements and capital expenditures. Working capital was approximately $7.2 million as of September 30, 2018, as compared to $7.0 million as of June 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, in addition to cash on-hand, we also have other current assets mainly composed of accounts receivable and prepayments.

 28

Although we believe that we can realize our current assets in the normal course of business, our ability to repay our current obligations will depend on the future realization of our current assets. Management has considered historical experience, the economic environment, trends in the construction industry, the expected collectability of accounts receivable and the realization of the prepayments on inventory, and provided for an allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2018. We expect to realize balances net of any allowance within the normal operating cycle of a twelve-month period. If we are unable to realize our current assets within the normal twelve-month operating cycle, we may have to consider supplementing our available sources of funds through the following:

● Equity financing.

● Other available sources of financing from PRC banks and other financial institutions, given our credit history.

● Financial support and credit guarantee commitments from Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers.

Based on the above considerations, management is of the opinion that we have sufficient funds to meet our working capital requirements and debt obligations as they become due. However, there is no assurance that management will be successful in their plans. There are a number of factors that could potentially arise that could undermine the Company’s plans, such as changes in the demand for our products, economic conditions, competitive pricing in the concrete-mix industry, our operating results not improving and our bank and shareholders being able to provide continued financial support.

In addition, the Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and disputes related to its operations and the personal guarantees of its executives to affiliated entities. The Company is actively defending these actions and attempting to mitigate the Company’s exposure to any liability in excess of the current provision of approximately $4.8 million, (see Note 12 in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). The ultimate outcome of these pending actions cannot presently be determined, but currently management is of the opinion that any potential additional liability would not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position. Nevertheless, due to the uncertainties with litigation, the PRC legal system, claims and disputes, it is at least reasonably possible that management’s view of the outcome could change in the near term.

Furthermore, as of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments in the amount of approximately $13.7 million (see Note 12 in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) and the likelihood of the outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. These lawsuits involve the Company principally due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, because they are also the shareholders of Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the joint complaints. Xin Ao was not involved in most of the lawsuits but named as a joint defendant in the lawsuits. As a result, Xin Ao could have exposure to any judgements in the future under PRC laws.  Mr. Han and Mr. He have agreed to indemnify the Company for any amounts Xin Ao may have to pay in these accounts.  Should the outcome of these lawsuits require Xin Ao to pay because the other co-defendants of the lawsuits and Mr. Han. and Mr. He were unable to liquidate their personal assets or their ownership interest in their privately held companies timely to pay for the judgements, the Company’s working capital as of September 30, 2018 would be reduced from approximately $7.2 million to  a net working capital deficiency of approximately $6.5 million.

The management of the Company has considered whether there is a going concern issue due to the Company’s recurring losses from operations, the estimated claims charges and the possible additional exposure for pending actions against Company which is presently unknown. Based upon the personal indemnifications of Mr. Han and Mr. He and their agreement to provide the necessary funds to the Company to continue its operations should the need arise, the management of the Company believes that it has alleviated the going concern issue.

The following table provides summary information about our net cash flow for financial statement periods presented in this report:

	For the three months ended
	September 30,
	2018			2017
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	771,005		$	1,638,201
Net cash used in investing activities		-			(12,001	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		3,883			(931,806	)
Effect of foreign currency translation on cash and cash equivalents		(69,590	)		4,809
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	705,298		$	699,203

Principal demands for liquidity are for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 29

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which was attributable to a net loss of $0.9 million and adjustments to reconcile the net loss to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1.0 million, including adjustments for $0.3 million of depreciation, $0.7 million of stock compensation expense. Net cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net cash inflow, which mainly included cash inflow for decrease of prepayment – related party of $0.4 million, increase of accounts payable of approximately $5.4 million, excluding a non-cash offset of $6.5 million, increase of customer deposit of approximately $1.3 million, addition of approximately $0.2 million other payables-shareholders, and an increase of approximately $0.6 million in accrued liabilities and contingent liabilities. Net cash inflow was primarily offset by increase of accounts receivable of approximately $1.8 million, excluding a non-cash offset of $2.1 million, payments of other receivables of approximately $1.7 million, and payments of prepayments and advances of approximately $3.9 million.

Investing Activities. No cash was provided by or used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $4,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which was primarily attributable to approximately $5.0 million in new bank loans and approximately $0.5 million for the issuance of common stock. Net cash inflow was offset by approximately $5.4 million in repayments of bank loans.

Cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.8 million as compared to approximately $1.1 million as of June 30, 2018. We believe that our cash and revenues from ongoing operations, in addition to the close management of our accounts payable and accounts receivable and our ability to obtain loan financing, will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital requirements for all of our ongoing operations. However, we may need to raise additional capital if we undertake any plans for expansion.

Loan Facilities. We had a total of approximately $24.7 million and $26.1 million outstanding on loans and credit facilities as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively. See Note 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis:

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of China ACM and its wholly owned subsidiaries, CADC Cayman, CACM, BVI-ACM, China-ACMH, and its variable interest entity Xin Ao (collectively, the “Company”). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with FASB ASC 810, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, variable interest entities, or VIEs, are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. All VIEs with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes. In accordance withASC810, the Company concluded that Xin Ao is a VIE and China ACMH is the primary beneficiary. The financial statements of Xin Ao are consolidated with China ACM’s financial statements.

Use of estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The significant estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and prepayments and advances, stock-based compensation, accrued contingent liabilities, fair value and useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could be materially different from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

On July 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not completed as of July 1, 2018. The core principle underlying revenue recognition is that we recognize our revenue to represent the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in such exchange. This requires us to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer.  Our revenue streams are primarily recognized at a point in time, principally upon delivery.

 30

The ASU requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that we (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) we satisfy the performance obligation. The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way we record our revenue. Upon adoption, we evaluated our revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no material differences in the pattern of revenue recognition.

Sales of concrete products

We derive our revenues from sales contracts with our customers with revenues being recognized upon delivery of products. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via sales contract and invoice; and the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the sales contract and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Such revenues are recognized at a point in time after all performance obligations are satisfied and based on when control of goods transfer to a customer, which is generally similar to when its delivery had occurred prior to July 1, 2018.

Accounts receivable

We extend unsecured credit to our customers in the normal course of business. Accounts are considered past due after 30 days. In establishing the required allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical experience, the economic environment, trends in the construction industry, and the expected collectability of the overdue receivable. Management reviews its accounts receivable each reporting period to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovering is considered remote. We provide a provision of a 15% allowance for past due receivables more than 180 days but less than one year, a 40% allowance for past due receivables from one to two years, a 75% allowance for past due receivables beyond two years, a 100% allowance for past due receivables beyond three years, plus additional amounts as necessary, when our collection department determines the collection of the full amount is remote with the approval from our management. Our management has continued to evaluate the reasonableness of the valuation allowance policy and updates it if necessary.

Accounting for long-lived assets

We classify our long-lived assets into: (i) machinery and equipment; (ii) transportation equipment; (iii) office and equipment; and (iv) buildings and improvements.

Long-lived assets held and used by us are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. It is possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technological or other industry changes. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group to be tested for possible impairment, we first compare undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

If the value of an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value, less disposition costs.

There was no impairment charge for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and 2017.

Competitive pricing pressures and changes in interest rates could materially and adversely affect the Company’s estimates of future net cash flows to be generated by long-lived assets, and thus could result in future impairment losses

Income taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires us to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Under this accounting standard, the effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of a met deferred tax asset will not be realized.

ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, defines uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position as a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. Penalties and interest incurred related to the underpayment of income taxes are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

Commitments and contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company has a lease agreement for its concrete service plant with an unrelated party which will expire on September 30, 2022, with annual payments of approximately $409,000.  The Company has a lease agreement for roadway access to the west side entry of the concrete service plant with an unrelated party, which will expire on June 30, 2019, with annual payments of approximately $15,000. The Company has a lease agreement for office space from Mr. Weili He, the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer, through October 31, 2023, with annual payments of approximately $24,000. The Company has a lease agreement for office space in New York through May 31, 2019, with annual payments of $27,600.

Operating lease expenses are allocated between the cost of revenue and selling, general, and administrative expenses. Total operating lease expenses were approximately $0.1 million and $60,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to or arise from, commercial disputes, labor contract complaints and sales contract complaints. The Company accrues costs related to these matters when they become probable and as a result the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated (See Dispute Matters Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business for more information). In determining whether a loss from a claim is probable, and if it is possible to estimate the loss, the Company reviews and evaluates its litigation and regulatory matters on at least a quarterly basis in light of potentially relevant factual and legal developments. If the Company determines a favorable outcome is probable, or that the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company does not accrue costs for a potential litigation loss. In those situations, the Company discloses an estimate of the probable losses or a range of possible losses, if such estimates can be made as indicated below (See Legal Matters). Currently, except as otherwise noted below, the Company does not believe that it is possible to estimate the potential losses incurred or a range of reasonably possible losses related to the outstanding claims.  Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits for which the Company estimated that it is more than likely to pay judgments in the amount of approximately US$4.8 million (including interest and penalty of US$0.8 million). These amounts are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (See Accrued Contingent Liabilities). During the three months ended September 30, 2018, additional estimated claim charges of approximately $0.6 million for remaining claim balances for interest and penalty of existing claims are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Estimated claims charges”.

As of the date of this 10-Q, the Company’s management does not expect any other material liability from the disposition of claims as of the date of this 10-Q report from litigation individually, or in the aggregate would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 32

Due to the Company’s operations in the PRC and the legal environment in the PRC, it is possible that the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao could be named as a defendant in litigation based upon the guarantees of Mr. Han and Mr. He and/or their related entities.

Legal matters

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments of approximately $13.7 million and the likelihood of the outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined as of the date of this report. These lawsuits involved with the Company were mainly due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, because they are also the shareholders of our VIE, Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the joint complaints. Xin Ao was not involved in most of the lawsuits but named as a joint defendant in the lawsuits. As a result, Xin Ao might have exposure to the pending judgements in the future.

The type of litigation disputes with contingencies associated are summarized as follows as of September 30, 2018:

Dispute matter	Claim amount as of September 30, 2018		Interest and penalties		Total claim amount as of September 30, 2018
1) Guarantees	$	56,039,285	$	10,093,006	$	66,132,291
2) Purchase		1,584,406		47,897		1,632,303
3) Leases		895,071		-		895,071
4) Labor		227,890		-		227,890
Total	$	58,746,652	$	10,140,903		68,887,555
Settled claims						(55,202,577	)
Remaining claims amount					$	13,684,978

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Due to the Company’s consolidated VIE being named as a guarantor for certain agreements per the courts in the PRC (see Note 12 for details), we may have some off-balance sheet arrangements that could have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures and capital resources that is material to our stockholders. On September 28, 2018, Mr. Han and Mr. He signed an agreement with the Company to indemnify it for any liabilities and be personally responsible for any the pending potential judgements amount from the civil lawsuits mentioned above.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Refer to Note 2 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards and pronouncements.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk while we have short-term bank loans outstanding. Although interest rates for our short-term loans are typically fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically twelve months and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal. Interest rates are approximately 5.66% to 6.09% for our RMB bank loans with a term of twelve months or less.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk from its cash in bank and fixed deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables, and prepayments and advances on inventory purchases. The credit risk on cash in bank and fixed deposits is limited because the counterparties are recognized financial institutions. Accounts receivable, other receivables, and prepayments and advances on inventory purchases are subject to credit evaluations. An allowance has been made for estimated unrecoverable amounts which have been determined by reference to past default experience and the current economic environment.

 33

Foreign Exchange Risk

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. In August 2017, the PRC’s currency dropped by a cumulative 4.4% against the U.S. dollar on hopes of boosting the domestic economy, making PRC exports cheaper and imports into the PRC more expensive by that amount. The effect on trade can be substantial. The RMB started to appreciate during 2017 and the trend of appreciation fluctuated during the three months ended September 30, 2018. Compared with the lowest point of RMB versus U.S. dollars in 2017, the RMB has appreciated by 3.6% compared to the exchange rate as of September 30, 2018. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market. In addition, the value of RMB could be affected by the tariffs regarding trade with the United States.

Because substantially all of our earnings and cash assets are denominated in RMB, but our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB will affect our balance sheet and our earnings per share in U.S. dollars. In addition, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Most of the transactions of the Company are settled in RMB and U.S. dollars. In the opinion of management, the Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk.

Inflation

Inflationary factors, such as increases in the cost of raw materials and overhead costs, could impair our operating results. A high rate of inflation in the future may have a continued adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales revenue if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not Applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, in connection with the restatement, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, re-evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2018. Based on that evaluation, we concluded that as of September 30, 2018, due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

(b) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2018. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting, because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, were not effective. 

 34

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As a result of its review, management concluded that we had material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting process consisting of the following:

● the Head of the Legal Department’s significant lack of understanding of the importance of timely disclosure of legal proceedings and the Legal Department’s problematic decision-making process with regards to reporting of legal proceedings;

● The ongoing lack of communication and coordination between executive management and the various departments within the Company;

● The personnel primarily responsible for the preparation of our financial statements do not have requisite levels of knowledge, experience and training in the application of U.S. GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements;

● Ineffective supervision of the Company’s internal and disclosure controls over financial reporting.

● The Company’s issuance of certain restricted shares prior to the obligation being specified or performed; and

● The Company’s failure to timely identify a related party.

Remediation Plan 

Management is in the process of re-assessing the design of certain control activities and developing its remediation plan for the above identified weaknesses. The Company’s actions are subject to ongoing senior management review, as well as Audit Committee oversight. The Company has implemented or will implement following remedial measures within its resources as soon as practicable:

● The prior Head of Legal Department has been terminated and management has commenced a search for a qualified replacement.

● The Board has commenced a search for a full-time bilingual CFO experienced in U.S. GAAP and in the reporting requirements for a U.S. publicly-listed company;

● The Nominating Committee has commenced a search for additional bilingual independent director fluent in U.S. GAAP requirements and knowledgeable of U.S. Securities law;

● Establishing an internal audit function or engage an external consulting firm, to assist with assessment of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance requirements and improvement of overall internal controls;

● Development of written internal controls and procedures relating to litigation management, including the review, assessment, and reporting of all of the Company’s legal proceedings to the CEO, CFO, Accounting Department, and independent auditors;

● Implementation of a comprehensive training and development plan, for our finance, accounting, legal and internal control personnel, in the principles and rules of U.S. GAAP, SEC reporting requirements and the application thereof.

As of the date of this 10-Q, the Company is in the process of conducting a comprehensive review of the issues identified by the investigation team and intends to take all remedial measures recommended by the Audit Committee within its resources to cure the material weaknesses in its internal and disclosure control procedures.

 35

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

Except as otherwise disclosed in this 10-Q, during the first quarter ended September 30, 2018, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation performed during the quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

(d) Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to or arise from, commercial disputes, labor contract complaints and sales contract complaints. The Company accrues costs related to these matters when they become probable and as a result the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated (See Dispute Matters Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business for more information). In determining whether a loss from a claim is probable, and if it is possible to estimate the loss, the Company reviews and evaluates its litigation and regulatory matters on at least a quarterly basis in light of potentially relevant factual and legal developments. If the Company determines a favorable outcome is probable, or that the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company does not accrue costs for a potential litigation loss. In those situations, the Company discloses an estimate of the probable losses or a range of possible losses, if such estimates can be made as indicated below (See Legal Matters). Currently, except as otherwise noted below, the Company does not believe that it is possible to estimate the potential losses incurred or a range of reasonably possible losses related to the outstanding claims.  Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits for which the Company estimated that it is more than likely to pay judgments in the amount of approximately $4.8 million (including interest and penalty of $0.8 million). These amounts are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (See Accrued Contingent Liabilities). During the three months ended September 30, 2018, additional estimated claims charges of approximately $0.6 million principally for interest and penalties on existing claims which are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Estimated claims charges”.

As of the date of this 10-Q, the Company’s management does not expect any other material liability from the disposition of claims from litigation individually, or in the aggregate that would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Due to the Company’s operations in the PRC and the legal environment in the PRC, it is possible that the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao could be named as a defendant in litigation based upon the guarantees of Mr. Han and Mr. He and/or their related parties.

(i) Disputes Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $4.8 million in accrued contingent liabilities, net of amounts paid by a related party of approximately $1.3 million, and approximately $0.6 million of additional estimated claims charges for the three months ended September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, further details regarding the type of litigation disputes and accrued costs associated with the claims are summarized as follows:

Dispute matter	Claim amount as of September 30, 2018		Interest and penalties		Total claim amount as of September 30, 2018
1) Guarantees	$	2,155,054	$	-	$	2,155,054

Payments by related party						(1,254,312	)
Accrued contingent liabilities					$	4,834,635

The major legal cases are summarized as follows:

 37

1) Guarantee

In December 2016, the Company guaranteed approximately $2.1 million (RMB 14,736,000) that a third-party borrowed from a bank:

Name of party being guaranteed	Guaranteed amount		Guarantee expiration date
Tangshan Long Tang Trading Co., Ltd	$	2,145,296	December 29, 2017

This loan has not paid as of the date of this report. As of the date of this report, the Company has evaluated the guarantee and has concluded that the likelihood of having to make any payments under the guarantee agreement is probable. The Company accrued approximately $2.1 million contingent liability in connection with such guarantee as of June 30, 2018.

2)  Sales dispute

(a) On August 10, 2017, Guowang International Finance Leasing Co. Ltd. (“Gouwang”) filed a lawsuit against Xin Ao in People’s Court of Nankai District, Tianjin Province (“Nankai Court”) to seek compensatory damages in connection with Xin Ao’s failure to make payments under a financing lease agreement. On October 23, 2017, Nankai Court ruled against Xin Ao and rendered a judgement to award damages in an amount of RMB 9,168,463 (approximately US$1.3 million) to Guowang (the “Decision”). On September 26, 2018, Xin Ao appealed the Decision which was rejected in its entirety with prejudice. As of date of this report, Xin Ao has not made any payment. This agreement was initially entered into by Xin Ao for the benefit of a related party that is owned by the Company’s officers/major shareholders. Accordingly, the Company accrued approximately $1.3 million as a liability and a corresponding “Other Receivable – Related Party” in the same amount. Should the entity not repay the Company, the officers/major shareholders have agreed to indemnify the Company for any unpaid amounts.

(b) On April 30, 2016, China Black Metal Materials Beijing Co., Ltd (“China Black Metal”) filed a lawsuit against Xin Ao and Beijing Jinshengding Mineral Products Co., Ltd. (“Jinshengding”) in connection with their failure to make payments under a lease agreement. The court ruled that effective December 28, 2016, the lease agreement was void and Xin Ao and/or Jinshengding shall make payment to China Black Metal which shall include rent due from December 4, 2015 to December 28, 2016 in an amount of RMB 1,572,669, plus interest, expenses for utilities in an amount of RMB 271,579 (approximately US$40,000), penalty under the agreement of RMB 250,000 (approximately US$36,000), legal fees of RMB 73,238 (approximately US$11,000) and rent due from December 28, 2016 to September 30, 2018 of RMB 2,264,329 (approximately US$0.3 million). The total amount of compensation is RMB 4,431,816 (approximately US$0.6 million). As of date of this report, Jinshengding has paid RMB 1,800,000 (approximately US$0.3 million) out of the total compensation.

(ii) Legal matters

As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s VIE, Xin Ao, was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments in the amount of approximately $13.7 million and the likelihood of the outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined as of the date of this report. These lawsuits involved with the Company were mainly due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, and of which they are also the shareholders of Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the joint complaints. Xin Ao was not involved in some of the lawsuits but named as a joint defendant in the lawsuits. As a result, Xin Ao might have exposure to the pending judgements in the future under PRC laws.

On September 28, 2018, Mr. Han and Mr. He signed an agreement with the Company to indemnity the company for these liabilities of the Company and personally become responsible for all of the pending potential judgements amount from these related civil lawsuits. Both Mr. Han and Mr. He agreed to liquidate their personal assets or their ownership interest in their privately held companies to pay for any of the pending potential judgements amounts of approximately $13.7 million.

On December 10, 2018, Mr. Han and Mr. He entered into an amendment No. 1 to the indemnification agreement to clarify the indemnification terms which Mr. Han and Mr. He’s certain actions including but not limited to personal guarantees, loans or investments in their own name to other entities which has caused Xinao to be involved as a co-defendant in certain legal proceedings. Mr. Han and Mr. He have agreed to unconditionally indemnify Xin Ao for all losses, damages, legal fees, expenses or other costs related to the legal proceedings whereby Xin Ao was named as a co-defendant or defendant due to Mr. Han and Mr. He being a shareholder of Xin Ao. The indemnification for the amended terms are irrevocable. In addition, Mr. Han and Mr. He agreed to unconditionally indemnify Xin Ao for all the losses, damages, legal fees, expenses and other costs, including additional interest, related to the legal proceedings accrued and contingencies determined in the future.

 38

The type of litigation disputes with contingencies associated are summarized as follows as of September 30, 2018:

Dispute matter	Claim amount as of September 30, 2018		Interest and penalties		Total claim amount as of September 30, 2018
1) Guarantees	$	56,039,285	$	10,093,006	$	66,132,291
2) Purchase		1,584,406		47,897		1,632,303
3) Leases		895,071		-		895,071
4) Labor		227,890		-		227,890
Total	$	58,746,652	$	10,140,903		68,887,555
Settled claims						(55,202,577	)
Remaining claims amount					$	13,684,978

The major legal cases are summarized as follows:

1) Claims Resulting from Executives’ Personal Guarantee to Affiliated Entities

(a) Mr. Xianfu Han, the CEO and director of the Company and a shareholder of Xin Ao, Mr. Weili He, the interim CFO and director of the Company and a shareholder of Xin Ao, and Xin Ao (the “Defendants”) were parties to a lawsuit filed on June 23, 2017, by China Cinda Asset Management Co., Ltd. Beijing Branch (“Cinda Beijing Branch”) in the Beijing First Intermediate People’s Court (the “Beijing Intermediate Court”) to seek compensatory damages, liquidated damages, costs, and attorney’s fees for default in a certain loan repayment. The loan agreement was entered into by and between Xin Ao Ecological Construction Materials Co., Ltd. (“Borrower”) and Cinda Beijing Branch dated as of June 23, 2014 with Mr. Han and Mr. He acting as the guarantors for such loans (the “Guarantors”). Mr. Han and Mr. He together are the controlling shareholders of the Borrower, holding an aggregate of 60% equity interests of the Borrower. The aggregate amount of the loan was RMB288,506,497 (approximately US$42.0 million)  with interest at 12.8% per annum (the “Loan”). Cinda Beijing Branch alleged that since the Borrower breached its obligation to make the repayment of the Loan on the maturity date, the Guarantors, along with Xin Ao and those entities owned or controlled by the Guarantors, should be brought into the lawsuit as co-defendants (the “Defendants”). On July 5, 2017, Beijing Intermediate Court ruled in favor of Cinda Beijing Branch and issued a judgment for execution to freeze the Defendants’ assets, an aggregate amount of RMB 304,972,608 (approximately US$44.4 million) which shall be used for the repayment of the Loan, the liquidated damages, the interest on the Loan, and other costs and expenses undertaken by Cinda Beijing Branch. Following the mediation, China Cinda Asset Management Co., Ltd. (“Cinda”), two shareholders of Da Tong Lianlv Technologies Co., Ltd. (“Datong Lianlv”), Beijing Ao Huan Fund Management Co., Ltd. (“Ao Huan”), and Shou Tai Jin Xin (Chang Xing) Investment Management Co., Ltd (“Jin Xin”) entered into a certain limited partnership agreement (the “Partnership Agreement”) on December 22, 2017 to settle the lawsuit. Datong Lianlv is an affiliate of the Company and Xin Ao. Cinda is the parent company of Cinda Beijing Branch. As provided in the Partnership Agreement, the distributions of the limited partnership shall be allocated to Cinda first, who made a capital contribution in the form of its rights, title and interests in and to the repayment of the Loan in an aggregate amount of RMB 322,435,300 (approximately US$46.9 million) (the “Capital Contribution”). Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, payment shall be made until Cinda has received an amount equal to the aggregate of its unreturned Capital Contributions and a cumulative distribution equal to 7.5% of all distributions made. Datong Lianlv made its capital contribution in cash in an aggregate amount of RMB 150,000,000 (approximately US$21.8 million) along with its shareholders consent to transfer 99% of Datong Lianlv’s equity interests to the limited partnership. The PRC legal counsel of Xin Ao indicated that Cinda and Cinda Beijing Branch orally confirmed that this claim was fully settled in the form of the Partnership Agreement. In February 2018, the Cinda Beijing Branch filed an enforcement order with the court as the partnership had not been formed at that time. The partnership was subsequently formed in March 2018. No attempt to collect payment from Xin Ao has been made since the enforcement order was filed in February 2018.   Based upon the legal opinion issued by the Company’s PRC legal counsel, Xin Ao believes a favorable outcome is probable of the exposure to the pending judgements as the enforcement order has been resolved with the establishment of the Partnership.

(b) On July 11, 2018, Chengde County Rural Cooperatives Credit Union (the “Credit Union”) filed an arbitration demand (“Arbitration Demand”) with the People’s Court of Shuangqiao District, Chengde, Hebei Province (“Shuangqiao Court”) against certain entities and individuals (collectively the “Respondent”) including Xin Ao and Chengde Tianhang Concrete Co Ltd. (“Chengde Tianhang”) and Chengde Kaixuan Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“Chengde Kaixuan”) in connection with Chengde Tianhang’s potential default in its loan repayment. In accordance with the loan agreement, Mr. Weili He and Mr. Xianfu Han together acted as the guarantors for such loan. In addition, Mr. Han and Mr. He are the controlling shareholders and officers of Xin Ao. They are also the shareholder of Chengde Tianhang. Mr. Han and Mr. He were therefore named as co-respondents in the Arbitration Demand, where the Bank sought property preservation. Shuangqiao Court, accepting the Arbitration Demand of the Bank, rendered a decision to seize the bank deposits or equivalents of Respondent in an aggregate amount of RMB 26,000,000 (approximately US$3.8 million). Currently, none of the Company’s funds on deposit have been seized.

 39

(c) On October 9, 2017, Yong Fan filed a lawsuit against Beijing Lianlv Technology Group Co. Ltd (“Beijing Lianlv”), Xin Ao, and Mr. Weili He, in connection with Beijing Lianlv’s failure to pay off the principal and interest of RMB2,927,400 (approximately US$0.4 million) under its loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”). Given that Mr. Weili He acted as the guarantor for such loan, Mr. He was brought into the lawsuit as one of the co-defendants. Since Mr. He is one of the controlling shareholders of Xin Ao, Xin Ao was also brought into the lawsuit as one of the co-defendants. The Court rendered a judgement in May 2018, ruling that

1) Beijing Lianlv shall pay Yong Fan the damages in an amount of RMB 2.895 million (approximately US$0.4 million) as principal of the loan and an amount of RMB32,400 (approximately US$5,000) as interest of the loan (the amount of expected interest was computed with a simple rate of 24%per annum. As of the date of the report, Beijing Lianlv has not made any payment as the Company is currently in the process of appealing the judgement);

2) Xin Ao and Mr. Weili He are entitled to the right of recourse to Beijing Lianlv.

(d) On January 8, 2018, Agricultural Bank of China Tangshan Branch (the “Bank”) filed an arbitration demand (“Arbitration Demand”) with People’s Court of Fengrun District, Tangshan, Hebei Province (“Fengrun Court”) against certain entities and individuals including Xin Ao and Tangshan Xinglong Technology Development Co. Ltd. (“Xinlong”) (collectively the “Respondents”) in connection with Xinlong’s breach of a loan agreement. In accordance with the loan agreement, Xin Ao, as the guarantor on such loan from the Bank, was named as co-respondent to the Arbitration Demand, where the Bank sought property preservation. Fengrun Court, accepting the Arbitration Demand of the Bank, rendered a decision to seize the bank deposits or equivalents Respondents in an aggregate amount of RMB 51,000,000 (approximately USD $7.4 million). Currently, none of the Company’s funds on deposit have been seized.

2) Purchase dispute

(a) Nanling Yirui Materials Supplier Co., Ltd. (Nanling Yirui”) filed a lawsuit against Sihong Jinghong Sheng Concrete Co., Ltd. (“Sihong”) on October 23, 2017 in the People’s Court in Nanling County, Anhui Province, to seek compensatory damages, interest and attorney’s fees. A Raw Material Purchase Agreement was entered into by and between Nanling Yirui and Sihong on April 30, 2017. The purchase price of raw materials supplied by Nanling Yirui was in an aggregate amount of RMB 3,452,799 (approximately US$0.5 million), the payment of which was overdue. Mr. Xianfu Han and Mr. Weili He are the shareholders of Sihong. Since Mr. Han and Mr. He are the controlling shareholders of Xin Ao, Xin Ao was also brought into the lawsuit as a co-defendant. The Court rendered a final judgement in June 2018 in favor of Nanling Yirui. As of the date of the report, Sihong has not made any payment.

3) Leasing disputes

On March 6, 2018, Beijing Chengda Yu Concrete Co., Ltd (“Beijing Chengda”) filed a lawsuit against Xin Ao in connection with Xin Ao’s breach of a rental lease. Beijing Chengda stated that on January 24, 2014 both parties entered into a lease agreement (the “Agreement”). A lease addendum was later entered into on February 25, 2014. The Agreement provided that, effective from July 18, 2013 to April 30, 2018, XinAo shall rent Beijing Chengda’s property, the Concrete Station, and assume all credits and debts incurred during the term of the lease agreement. Mr. Xianfu Han and Mr. Weili He signed a personal guaranty agreement with Xin Ao to undertake the liabilities of Xin Ao in the event of its breach on the lease agreement. On March 31, 2017, Beijing Chengda was sued by Beijing Zhongtong Jiang Xin’hang Construction Materials Co., Ltd for an unpaid balance in an amount of RMB 6,246,059 (approximately US$0.9 million in total) in connection with utilizing the Concrete Station. Beijing Chengda then brought a lawsuit against Xin Ao for the payment of such unpaid balance together with the legal fees in connection with the lawsuit. The case is still under review by the court, and no potential judgment amount has been decided.

4) Labor disputes

During 2017, Sihong was subject to certain labor disputes. The potential total amounts of judgment is around RMB 1,701,979 (approximately US$0.3 million). Mr. Xianfu Han and Mr. Weili He are the shareholders of Sihong. Since Mr. Han and Mr. He are the controlling shareholders of Xin Ao, Xin Ao was also brought into the lawsuit as a co-defendant. As of the date of the report, Sihong has not made any payment. 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

As of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 filed with the SEC on December 10, 2018, except a new material risk factor as follows.

We may be exposed to liabilities due to the legal proceedings involving Xin Ao.

As of September 30, 2018, Xin Ao was subject to several civil lawsuits with potential judgments in the amount of approximately $13.7 million and the likelihood of the outcome of some of these lawsuits cannot be determined as of the date of this report. These lawsuits involved with the Company were mainly due to the personal guarantees by Mr. Xianfu Han, and Mr. Weili He, the Company’s shareholders and officers, which they are also the shareholders of Xin Ao. Because Mr. Han and Mr. He are the shareholders of Xin Ao and we are a U.S. public company, the plaintiffs included Xin Ao in the legal proceedings. Although Xin Ao was not involved in some of the lawsuits, it was named as co-defendant. In the event the companies Mr. Han and Mr. He previously provided personal guarantees too were involved in any new legal proceedings, Xin Ao may have additional exposure in such proceedings in the future. Although Mr. Han and Mr. He provided certain indemnification agreements to indemnify Xin Ao for the outstanding claims, Xin Ao may have exposure, to the extent there are any new or additional claims. In the event Mr. Han or Mr. He defaults on their Indemnification Agreements or are unable to fulfill their obligations thereunder, Xin Ao may have exposure. Any increase in the Company’s accrued liability for litigation could negatively affect our stockholders’ equity working capital and results of operations in the future.
