PART I

 

Item 1. Business.

 

Overview

 

We are a global logistics integrated solution provider that was founded in the United States in 2001. We primarily focus on providing freight logistics services, which mainly include shipping, warehouse, resources, equipment, and other logistical support to steel companies and e-commerce businesses.

 

We previously focused on providing customized freight logistic services until 2017 when we began exploring new opportunities to expand our business and generate more revenue. These opportunities ranged from complementary businesses to other new service and product initiatives. In the fiscal year 2022, while we continued to provide our traditional freight business, we expanded our services to include warehousing services provided by our U.S. subsidiary Brilliant Warehouse Service Inc since August 2021. On January 3, 2022, we changed our corporate name to Singularity Future Technology Ltd. to align with our entry into the digital assets business through our U.S. subsidiaries. During 2022, we were engaged in purchases and sales of cryptocurrency mining machines through our U.S. subsidiaries and ceased this line of business in December 2022 following our settlement with SOSNY, as more fully described below under the heading “– Recent Developments – Settlement with SOS Information Technology New York, Inc.”

 

We are currently engaged in providing freight logistics services including warehouse services, which are operated by our subsidiaries Trans Pacific Shipping Limited and Ningbo Saimeinuo Supply Chain Management Ltd in China and Gorgeous Trading Ltd and Brilliant Warehouse Service Inc in the United States. Our range of services include transportation, warehouse, collection, first-mile delivery, drop shipping, customs clearance, and overseas transit delivery.

 

Since the publication of the Hindenburg Report (as defined below), we have devoted substantial resources and efforts in the cooperation with the investigation of the Special Committee and U.S. governmental authorities, as well as the settlements with investors and vendor and the defense of lawsuits, which are fully described below. As a result, our business operations have been materially and adversely impacted, including suspension of our business developments in North America. We are currently exploring new business opportunities while continuing to provide freight logistics services, which include shipping and warehouse services.

 

Recent Developments

 

Special Committee Investigation

 

On May 5, 2022, an entity named Hindenburg Research issued a report (the “Hindenburg Report”) regarding the Company alleging, among other things, that the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer, Yang Jie, was a fugitive on the run from Chinese authorities for running an alleged $300 million Ponzi scheme that lured in over 20,000 victims. The report also raised questions regarding the Company’s joint venture to produce crypto mining equipment announced in October 2021, as well as a $200 million order purportedly received by the joint venture in January 2022. Further, the report was critical of the Company’s April 2022 announcement of a $250 million partnership with an entity named Golden Mainland Inc. On May 6, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) formed a special committee of its Board of Directors (the “Special Committee”) to investigate claims of alleged fraud, misrepresentation, and inadequate disclosure related to the Company and certain of its management personnel raised in the Hindenburg Report and other related matters. The Special Committee then retained Blank Rome LLP to serve as independent legal counsel and advise the Committee on the investigation. The Special Committee completed the fact-finding portion of its investigation prior to December 31, 2022. The Special Committee’s preliminary findings corroborate certain of the allegations made in the Hindenburg Report and the investigation has resulted in the terminations and resignations of certain executive officers and directors of the Company, including but not limited to, the following:

 

On June 16, 2022, Ms. Tuo Pan, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, without proper authorization by the Board, directed that funds be wired to satisfy an invoice for legal services that were rendered or to be rendered to Ms. Pan personally. Ms. Pan was suspended by the Board for cause and without pay effective June 20, 2022. On August 31, 2022, Ms. Tuo Pan was terminated for cause as an employee and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and from any other position at any subsidiary of the Company to which she has been appointed in accordance with the terms of her Employment Agreement dated November 9, 2021 and will not receive any salary or benefits from the Company except those earned through August 31, 2022.

On August 9, 2022, Mr. Yang Jie tendered his resignation from his positions as the Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company to the Board, following the Board’s decision on August 8, 2022, which adopted the Special Committee’s recommendation that Mr. Jie be suspended immediately as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, pending the Special Committee’s further investigation into allegations raised in the report of Hindenburg Report and other related matters.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Staff and attorneys from Blank Rome LLP, counsel for the Special Committee, held a conference call, during which counsel represented that Yang Jie had provided documentation to the SEC that indicated that the charges against him in China had been dropped, but the Special Committee’s investigation raised questions regarding the authenticity of such documents. The Special Committee has concluded that Mr. Jie was in fact issued a “Red Notice” in China. In terms of remediating this issue, after being suspended by the Special Committee on August 8, 2022, Mr. Yang Jie had resigned from his positions as Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Company on August 9, 2022.

 

On January 9, 2023, the Company entered into an Executive Separation Agreement and General Release (the “Separation Agreement”), with Lei Cao, an employee of the Company and a member of the Board, setting forth the terms and conditions related to (1) the termination of Mr. Cao’s employment with the Company and the termination of the employment agreement dated as of November 1, 2021 as well as cancellation and/or termination of certain other agreements relating to Mr. Cao’s employment with the Company; and (2) Mr. Cao’s resignation from the Board, effective as of January 9, 2023.

 

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Cao submitted a letter of resignation from the Board on January 9, 2023. In addition, he agreed to forfeit and return to the Company the 600,000 shares of common stock of the Company granted to him on August 13, 2021 under the terms of the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan of the Company (the “2021 Shares”). Mr. Cao also agreed to cooperate with the Company regarding certain investigations and proceedings set forth in the Separation Agreement, and/or any other matters arising out of or related to Mr. Cao’s relationship with or service to the Company. In consideration, the Company agreed to provide the following benefits to which Mr. Cao was not otherwise entitled: (1) payment of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Mr. Cao up through January 9, 2023 associated with Mr. Cao’s personal legal representation in matters relating to Mr. Cao’s tenure with the Company, the investigations and proceedings set forth in the Separation Agreement, and the negotiation and drafting of the Separation Agreement; (2) the release of claims in Mr. Cao’s favor contained in the Separation Agreement; and (3) payment of Mr. Cao’s reasonable and necessary legal fees to the extent incurred by Mr. Cao as a result of his cooperation as required by the Company under the terms of the Separation Agreement. Additionally, the Separation Agreement contains mutual general releases and waiver of claims from Mr. Cao and the Company.

 

On February 23, 2023, the Board approved the dissolution of the Special Committee upon conclusion of the committee’s investigation. On the same day, John Levy resigned as a director and member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee of the Board, effective immediately.

 

Nasdaq Listing Deficiencies

 

On May 24, 2022, the Company received a delinquency notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) due to its delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company was provided 60 days to submit a plan to regain compliance. On July 25, 2022 and September 14, 2022, the Company submitted its plan to regain compliance and supplementary information related to the plan, respectively (collectively, the “Compliance Plan”). Based on the review of the Compliance Plan as well as telephone conversations with outside counsel to the Company and counsel to the Company’s Special Committee, the Staff has determined that the Company did not provide a definitive plan evidencing its ability to file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (collectively, the “Reports”) within the 180 calendar day period available to the Staff under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

 

2

 

 

Specifically, the delisting determination referenced several aspects of the Compliance Plan that raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to regain compliance: (i) the unreasonably short timeframe for the Company to file the Reports based on the anticipated timeframe the Special Committee needs to substantially complete its investigation; (ii) the Company’s ability to engage a new independent registered public accounting firm; and (iii) the departure of both the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

On November 16, 2022, the Company received an additional staff determination notice from Nasdaq, advising that it had not received the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022, which served as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities and that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) will consider the additional deficiency in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company has submitted to the Panel a plan to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements, including the filing of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022.

 

On January 5, 2023, the Company received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq informing the Company that its common stock, no par value, fails to comply with the $1 minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) based upon the closing bid price of the common stock for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the notice from Nasdaq. The Company has been provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 5, 2023, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.

 

On February 21, 2023, the Company received an additional staff determination notice from Nasdaq, advising that it had not received the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2022, which served as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities. The notice stated that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel will consider the additional deficiency in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on Nasdaq. The Company has submitted to the Panel a plan to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements and has been granted a grace period to file all the delinquent reports, including the filing of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2022, on or before February 28, 2023.

 

Settlement with SOS Information Technology New York, Inc.

 

SOS Information Technology New York, Inc. (“SOSNY”), a company incorporated under the laws of state of New York and a wholly owned subsidiary of SOS Ltd., filed a lawsuit in the New York State Supreme Court on December 9, 2022 against Thor Miner, Inc., which is the Company’s joint venture (“Thor Miner,” together with the Company, referred to as the “Corporate Defendants”), Lei Cao, Yang Jie, John F. Levy, Tieliang Liu, Tuo Pan, Shi Qiu, Jing Shan, and Heng Wang (jointly referred to as the “Individual Defendants”) (collectively, the Individual Defendants and the Corporate Defendants are the “Defendants”). SOSNY and Thor Miner entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated January 10, 2022 (the “PSA”) for the purchase of $200,000,000 in crypto mining rigs, which SOSNY claims was breached by the Defendants.

 

SOSNY and Defendants entered into a certain settlement agreement and general mutual release with an Effective Date of December 28, 2022 (the “Settlement Agreement”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Thor Miner agreed to pay a sum of $13,000,000 (the “Settlement Payment”) to SOSNY in exchange for SOSNY dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice as to the settling Defendants and without prejudice as to all others. The full Settlement Payment was received by SOSNY on December 28, 2022. SOSNY dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice against Singularity (and other Defendants) on December 28, 2022.

 

The Company and Thor Miner further covenanted and agreed that if they receive additional funds from HighSharp (Shenzhen Gaorui) Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (“HighSharp”) related to the PSA, they will promptly transfer such funds to SOSNY in an amount not to exceed $40,560,569 (which is the total amount paid by SOSNY pursuant to the PSA less the price of the machines actually received by SOSNY pursuant to the PSA). The Settlement Payment and any payments subsequently received by SOSNY from HighSharp shall be deducted from the total amount of $40,560,569 previously paid by, and now due and owing to SOSNY. In further consideration of the Settlement Agreement, Thor Miner agreed to execute and provide to SOSNY, within seven (7) business days after SOSNY’s receipt of the Settlement Payment, an assignment of all claims it may have against HighSharp or otherwise to the proceeds of the PSA.   

 

Litigations

 

Lawsuits in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On September 23, 2022, Hexin Global Limited and Viner Total Investments Fund filed a lawsuit against the Company and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Hexin lawsuit”). On December 5, 2022, St. Hudson Group LLC, Imperii Strategies LLC, Isyled Technology Limited, and Hsqynm Family Inc. filed a lawsuit against the Company and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “St. Hudson lawsuit,” and together with the Hexin lawsuit, the “Investor Actions”). The plaintiffs in the Investor Actions are investors that entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Company in December 2021 as more fully described below. Each of these plaintiffs asserts causes of action for, among other things, violations of federal securities laws, breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent inducement, breach of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment, and seeks monetary damages and specific performance to remove legends from certain securities sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Hexin lawsuit claims monetary damages of “at least $6 million,” plus interest, costs, fees, and attorneys’ fees. The St. Hudson lawsuit claims monetary damages of “at least $4.4 million,” plus interest, costs, fees, and attorneys’ fees.

Lawsuit in connection with the Financial Advisory Agreement

 

On October 6, 2022, Jinhe Capital Limited (“Jinhe”) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, asserting causes of actions for, among other things, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, conversion, quantum meruit, and unjust enrichment, in connection with a financial advisory agreement entered into by and between Jinhe and the Company on November 10, 2021. Jinhe claims monetary damages of “at least $575,000” and “potentially exceeding $1.8 million,” plus interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees.

 

On January 10, 2023, St. Hudson lawsuit was consolidated with this lawsuit and Hexin lawsuit; on February 24, 2023, all three consolidated actions were dismissed without prejudice by the court, in furtherance of the parties having reached an agreement in principle to settle their disputes.

 

Putative Class Action

 

On December 9, 2022, Piero Crivellaro, purportedly on behalf of the persons or entities who purchased or acquired publicly traded securities of the Company between February 2021 and November 2022, filed a putative class action against the Company and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleging violations of federal securities laws related to alleged false or misleading disclosures made by the Company in its public filings. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages, plus interest, costs, fees, and attorneys’ fees. On February 7, 2023, two additional plaintiffs moved to be appointed as the lead class plaintiff in this action; those motions remain under the Court’s consideration. As this action is still in the early stage, the Company cannot predict the outcome.  

 

In addition to the above litigations, the Company is also subject to additional contractual litigations as to which it is unable to estimate the outcome.

 

Government Investigations

 

Following a publication of the Hindenburg Report, the Company received subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is cooperating with the government regarding these matters. At this early stage, the Company is not able to estimate the outcome or duration of the government investigations.

 

Recent Financings

 

December 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On December 14, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “December 2021 SPA”) with certain non-U.S. investors and accredited investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company sold to the Investors an aggregate of 3,228,807 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 4,843,210 shares of common stock. The purchase price for each share of common stock and one and a half warrants is $3.26, and the exercise price per warrant is $4.00. The warrants will be exercisable at any time during the period beginning on or after June 14, 2022 and ending on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on December 13, 2026; provided, however, that the total number of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, multiplied by the Nasdaq official closing bid price of the common stock shall equal or exceed $150,000,000 for a three consecutive month period prior to an exercise. This transaction is the subject of the Investor Actions described above.

The terms of the March 2022 Amended and Restated Convertible Notes are the same as that of the December 2021 Convertible Notes, except for the reduced principal amount and the waiver of interest for the $5,000,000 payment made on March 8, 2022.

 

January 2022 Warrant Purchase Agreement

 

On January 6, 2022, the Company entered into warrant purchase agreements with certain warrant holders (the “Sellers”) pursuant to which the Company repurchased an aggregate of 3,870,800 warrants (the “January 2022 Warrants”) from the Sellers. These warrants were sold to these Sellers in three previous transactions that closed on February 11, 2021, February 10, 2021, and March 14, 2018. The purchase price for each warrant was $2.00.

The January 2022 Warrants were deemed cancelled upon the receipt by the Sellers of the purchase price.

 

Corporate History and Our Business Segments

 

From inception in 2001 to our fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, our sole business was providing shipping agency services. In general, we provided two types of shipping agency services: loading/discharging services and protective agency services, in which we acted as a general agent to provide value added solutions to our customers. For loading/discharging agency services, we received the total payment from our customers in U.S. dollars and paid the port charges on behalf of our customers in RMB. For protective agency services, we charged a fixed amount as agent fee while customers were responsible for the payment of port costs and expenses. 

 

In January 2016, we expanded our business to include freight logistics services to provide import security filing services with the U.S. Customs and Department of Homeland Security, on behalf of importers who ship goods into the U.S. and also provided inland transportation services to these importers in the U.S.

 

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, we also expanded into container trucking services as new business sectors to provide related transportation logistics services to customers in the U.S. and in China.

 

As an effort to further diversify our business, in the second quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, we developed our bulk cargo container services segment. Bulk cargo container shipment refers to using containers to ship commodities that are traditionally shipped by freight cargo. Freight cargo rates are usually lower than container freight rates; however, the transit time is much longer and has high minimum quantity requirements. We temporarily suspended this service in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 due to market environment factors in 2019, and we have discontinued this service in light of the worldwide impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

 

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, we established a wholly owned subsidiary, Ningbo Saimeinuo Supply Chain Management Ltd., which is 100% owned by Sino-Global Shipping New York Inc. (“SG Shipping NY”), a New York corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and primarily engages in transportation management and freight logistics services, including overseas shipping.

 

Since the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, trade dynamics have made it more expensive for shipping carrier clients to cost-effectively move cargo into U.S. ports, and as a result, we realized lower shipping volumes, which has caused us to shift our focus back to the shipping agency business.

 

On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a cooperation agreement with Mr. Shanming Liang, a stockholder of the Company and set up a joint venture with Mr. Liang in New York named LSM Trading Ltd., in which the Company holds a 40% equity interest. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company invested $210,000. The joint venture has not commenced any business operations as of the date of this Report.

On July 7, 2020, the Company effected a l-for-5 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The split did not change the number of authorized shares of common stock or preferred stock, or the par value of common stock or preferred stock. As a result, all the issued and outstanding common stock share amounts included in this filing have been retroactively reduced by a factor of five, and all common stock per share amounts have been increased by a factor of five.

 

On December 14, 2020, the Company incorporated a new entity named Blumargo IT Solution Ltd. (“Blumargo”) in the U.S. SG Shipping NY held an 80% ownership interest in Blumargo, which was established in partnership with Tianjin Anboweiye Technology Co., to build up hi-tech and information-based logistics services to meet the demand of its customers.  On June 30, 2021, SG Shipping NY acquired the additional 20% from Tianjin Anboweiye Technology Co. and increased its ownership to 100%.

 

From March to June 2021, the Company engaged in cryptocurrency mining in China. On March 2, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Hebei Yanghuai Technology Co., Ltd. (“Yanghuai”) for the purchase of 2,783 digital currency mining machines for a total purchase price of approximately $4.6 million.  After the purchase, Yanghuai would manage and operate the servers at its site with no further charge from March 10, 2021 to March 9, 2022, after which time the Company may engage Yanghuai to continue providing service for a fee. The first cash payment of approximately $0.9 million was paid within 15 days after the date of signing the Agreement.

 

Over the last two months of the Company’s 2021 fiscal year, national and local governments in China started to restrict and ban cryptocurrency mining operations, causing owners of mining machines to cease mining operations. Based on the amended agreement signed by the Company and Yanghuai on September 17, 2021, the Company is not liable to perform under the remainder of the contract and has title to half of the products. The Company recorded impairment for the mining equipment in the last quarter of 2021 in the amount of approximately $0.9 million. the two parties have restructured the Purchase Agreement to reduce the purchase price from RMB 30 million to RMB 6 million and to allocate the purchased mining equipment between the Company and the Seller. The Seller transported digital currency mining machines representing half of the agreed 50,440 terahashes per second (th/s) in computing power (or a total of 25,220 th/s in computing power) to Ningbo, China first, and then shipped to the U.S. 

 

On April 21, 2021, the Company set up a joint venture in Texas, U.S. under the name of “Brilliant Warehouse Service Inc.” to support its freight logistics services in the U.S., pursuant to a cooperation agreement with Mr. Bangpin Yu. SG Shipping NY has a 51% equity interest in the joint venture. 

 

In July 2021, the Company registered a new company, Gorgeous Trading Ltd. (“Gorgeous Trading”), which is 100% owned by SG Shipping NY. Gorgeous Trading is mainly engaged in smart warehouse and related business in Texas. 

 

On August 31, 2021, the Company formed a joint venture, Phi Electric Motor, Inc. in New York, which is 51% owned by SG Shipping NY. Phi Electric Motor, Inc. had no operations as of the date of this Report.

 

On September 29, 2021, the Company formed a 100% owned subsidiary, SG Shipping & Risk Solution Inc., in New York. On December 23, 2021, SG Shipping & Risk Solution Inc. formed SG Link LLC in New York, of which it is a 100% owner. As of the date of this Report, the two companies have had no operations.

 

On October 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with HighSharp to establish a joint venture for collaborative engineering, technical development and commercialization of a bitcoin mining machine under the name Thor Miner Inc., granting Thor Miner exclusive rights covering design production, intellectual property, branding, marketing and sales. On October 11, 2021, Thor Miner was formed in Delaware, which is 51% owned by the Company and 49% owned by HighSharp.

On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements to terminate its variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure and deconsolidated its formerly controlled entity Sino-Global Shipping Agency Ltd. (“Sino-China”). The Company controlled Sino-China through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans Pacific Shipping Limited. The Company made the decision to dissolve the VIE structure and Sino-China because Sino-China has no active operations and the Company wanted to remove any potential risks associated with any VIE structures. In addition, the Company dissolved its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping LA, Inc. 

 

On April 10, 2022, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Golden Mainland Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Golden Mainland”) to establish a joint venture for building Bitcoin mining sites in Texas, Ohio, and other states. The joint venture has not been set up as of the date of this Report. The Company has no plan to pursue this business.

Our Competition 

 

The market segment that we now operate in, which is freight logistics services including warehouse services, does not have high entry barriers. In terms of our competition in China, there are many companies ranging from small to large that provide freight logistics services, and the state-owned companies in China generate a significant portion of the revenues in the industry. Our primary competitors in China are the China branches of international shipping companies or their exclusive agents in China. These companies include Evergreen Marine Corp., Orient Overseas Container Line, Ocean Network Express which includes Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha. The competition is intense due to the significant excess capacity. These companies have greater service capabilities, a larger customer base and more financial, marketing, network and human resources than we do. Most of them engage in a wide range of businesses and involve many aspects of the industry chain. However, we focus on providing tailored solutions and value-added services to customers in freight logistic services. As a boutique company with limited resources and history, we face intense competition. Our ability to grow in our industry depends on (1) our deep understanding of the complexity of industry issues and challenges and (2) our ability to develop optimal solutions to respond to the identified issues and provide effective problem-solving strategies to our targeted customers.

 

In terms of our competition in the United States, the freight logistics services industry is well developed, highly fragmented, and competition is fierce nationwide. Our primary competitors in the U.S. are local warehouse services providers and freight forwarding companies in Houston, for example, Bizto LLC, Golden Eagle Guns LLC, and Smart Supply Chain. Competition in the freight logistics services industry is driven by factors such as price, service quality, technology, and geographic reach. Companies that can offer a combination of these factors are often more competitive in the market. Additionally, companies that can adapt to changing customer demands and market trends, such as the shift towards e-commerce, are likely to be more successful in the long term. We aim at providing tailored and valued-added services for our international clients with needs for U.S. domestic logistics services.

 

Employees

 

As of the date of this Report, we have 39 full-time employees, 13 of whom are based in China and 26 are based in the United States. Of the total full-time employees, nine are in management, 17 are in operations, nine are in finance and accounting related and four are in administration and technical support. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good. We have never had a work stoppage, and our employees are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

 

Intellectual Property

 

As of the date of this Report, we do not have any registered patents, copyrights, or trademarks other than two pending trademark applications for “Thor” and “Thor Miner.” We have seven registered domain names, including our corporate website https://www.singularity.us/.   

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include risk factors in this Report. However, below is a number of material risks, uncertainties and other factors that could have a material effect on the Company and its operations as a result of recent developments. You should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing our common stock. The risks highlighted here are not the only ones that we may face. For example, additional risks presently unknown to us or that we currently consider immaterial or unlikely to occur could also impair our operations. If any of the risks or uncertainties described below or any such additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, or results of operations could be negatively affected, and you might lose all or part of your investment.

 

We are, and may continue to be, subject to litigation including individual and class action lawsuits, as well as investigations and enforcement actions by regulators and governmental authorities. These matters are often expensive and time consuming, and, if resolved adversely, could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

 

As discussed in “Item 1. Business – Recent Developments,” we are, and from time to time may become, subject to litigation and various legal proceedings, including litigation and proceedings related to stockholder derivative suits, class action lawsuits and other matters, that involve claims for substantial amounts of money or for other relief or that might necessitate changes to our business or operations. In addition to this, we have been, currently are, and may from time to time become subject to, government and regulatory investigations, inquiries, actions or requests, other proceedings and enforcement actions alleging violations of laws, rules, and regulations, both foreign and domestic. The defense of these actions may be both time consuming and expensive. We evaluate these litigation claims and legal proceedings to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the monetary amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, we may establish reserves and/or disclose the relevant litigation claims or legal proceedings, as and when required or appropriate. These assessments and estimates are based on information available to management at the time of such assessment or estimation and involve a significant amount of judgment. As a result, actual outcomes or losses could differ materially from those envisioned by our current assessments and estimates. Our failure to successfully defend or settle any of these litigations or legal proceedings could result in liability that, to the extent not covered by our insurance, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

8

 

 

The scope, determination, and impact of claims, lawsuits, government and regulatory investigations, enforcement actions, disputes, and proceedings to which we are subject cannot be predicted with certainty, and may result in:

 

  substantial payments to satisfy judgments, fines, or penalties;
     
  substantial outside counsel, advisor, and consultant fees and costs;
     
  substantial administrative costs, including arbitration fees;
     
  loss of productivity and high demands on employee time;
     
  criminal sanctions or consent decrees;
     
  termination of certain employees, including members of our executive team;
     
  barring of certain employees from participating in our business in whole or in part;
     
  orders that restrict our business or prevent us from offering certain products or services;
     
  changes to our business model and practices
     
  delays to planned transactions, service launches or improvements; and
     
  damage to our brand and reputation.

 

We are, and may continue to be, subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention, cause harm to our reputation and result in significant damages for which we could be responsible.

 

We are subject to securities class action litigation, which is expensive, could divert our management’s attention, harm our reputation, and leave us liable for substantial damages. For example, as discussed in “Item 1. Business – Recent Developments,” on December 9, 2022, Piero Crivellaro, purportedly on behalf of the persons or entities who purchased or acquired publicly traded securities of the Company between February 2021 and November 2022, filed a putative class action against the Company, certain of our officers and directors, and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleging violations of federal securities laws related to alleged false or misleading disclosures made by the Company in its public filings. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages, plus interest, costs, fees, and attorneys’ fees. As this action is still in the early stage, the Company cannot predict the outcome, and certain of our officers in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

 

Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could adversely impact our business. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject us to significant liabilities.

 

We are responsible for the indemnification of our officers and directors.

 

Should our officers and/or directors require us to contribute to their defense, we may be required to spend significant amounts of our capital. Our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws also provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities on behalf of our company. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures, which we may be unable to recoup. If these expenditures are significant or involve issues which result in significant liability for our key personnel, we may be unable to continue operating as a going concern.

 

9

 

 

We depend on a limited number of major customers who are able to exert a high degree of influence over us and the loss of a major customer could adversely impact our business.

 

For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, one customer, Chongqing Iron & Steel Ltd., accounted for 60.8% and 89.7% of our revenues, respectively. There can be no assurance that our major customer will continue to purchase our services in the same amount that it has in the past. The loss of our major customer or a material reduction in sales to a major customer could have a material adverse effect on our sales and results of operations. Additionally, given the high concentration of our customer base, a default by or a significant reduction in future transactions with our major customer could materially reduce our revenues, profitability, liquidity and growth prospects.

 

We depend on a limited number of suppliers who are able to exert a high degree of influence over us and the loss of our major suppliers could adversely impact our business.

 

For the year ended June 30, 2022, two suppliers accounted for approximately 26.3% and 24.1% of our total purchases, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2021, two suppliers accounted for approximately 55.4% and 28.6% of our total purchases, respectively. There can be no assurance that our major suppliers will continue to supply us with the materials or services required to operate our business in the same amount that they have in the past. The loss of our major suppliers or a material reduction in the materials or services they provide to us could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

 

Additionally, due to the unpredictable nature of COVID-19 regulations in China, our suppliers based in China may be affected by COVID-19 related issues such as shutdowns and delays. This may cause us to become unable to fulfill our customer orders on a timely basis, which may cause us to cancel orders and provide refunds, as demonstrated in our settlement with SOSNY.

 

The restatement of our prior financial statements may affect investor confidence and raise reputational issues and may subject us to additional risks and uncertainties, including increased professional costs and the increased possibility of legal proceedings and regulatory inquiries.

 

As discussed in our Current Form on Form 8-K filed on February 28, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on March 6, 2023, we determined to restate our financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 after we identified errors related to, incorrect accounting treatment of related party loan receivable, incorrect recognition of revenue from freight shipping services and incorrect accounting treatment of recovery (provision) for doubtful accounts. As a result of these errors and the resulting restatements of our financial statements for the impacted periods, we have incurred, and may continue to incur, unanticipated costs for accounting and legal fees in connection with or related to the restatements, and have become subject to a number of additional risks and uncertainties, including the increased possibility of litigation and regulatory inquiries. Any of the foregoing may affect investor confidence in the accuracy of our financial disclosures and may raise reputational risks for our business, both of which could harm our business and financial results.

 

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and have determined to restate our previously issued financial statements. If our remediation of these material weaknesses is not effective, or if we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable laws and regulations could be impaired. In addition, the presence of material weaknesses increases the risk of a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements.

 

As a public company, we are required, pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for reliable financial reports and, together with adequate disclosure controls and procedures, such internal controls are designed to prevent fraud. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could cause our Company to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

 

Our management’s assessment must include disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by management in our internal control over financial reporting. Our management’s assessment could detect problems with internal controls. Undetected material weaknesses in internal controls could lead to financial statement restatements and require our Company to incur the expense of remediation.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in a company’s internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of its consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. This deficiency could result in additional misstatements to its consolidated financial statements that would be material and would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

As discussed in “Item 9.A Controls and Procedures – Disclosure Controls and Procedures,” under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Operating Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to ineffective internal controls over financial reporting that stemmed from the following material weaknesses for the year ended and as of June 30, 2022:

 

Lack of segregation of duties for accounting personnel who prepared and reviewed the journal entries in some of the subsidiaries within the consolidation, lack of supervision, coordination and communication of financial information between different entities within the Group;

 

Lack of a full time U.S. GAAP personnel in the accounting department to monitor the recording of the transactions which led to error in revenue recognition in previously issued financial statements;

 

Lack of resources with technical competency to address, review and record non-routine or complex transactions under U.S. GAAP;

 

10

 

 

Lack of management control reviews of the budget against actual with analysis of the variance with a precision that can be explained through the analysis of the accounts;

 

Lack of proper procedures in identifying and recording related party transactions which led to restatement of previously issued financial statements (See Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statement footnotes);

 

Lack of proper procedures to maintain supporting documents for accounting record; and

 

Lack of proper oversight for the Company’s cash disbursement process that led to misuse of the Company funds by its former executive.

 

In order to remediate the material weaknesses stated above, we intend to implement the following policies and procedures:

 

  Hiring additional accounting staff to report the internal financial timely;
     
  Hiring of CEO and CFO to properly set up the Company’s internal control and oversight process;

 

  Reporting other material and non-routine transactions to the Board and obtain proper approval;

 

  Recruiting additional qualified professionals with appropriate levels of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience to assist in resolving accounting issues in non-routine or complex transactions;

 

  Developing and conducting U.S. GAAP knowledge, SEC reporting and internal control training to senior executives, management personnel, accounting departments and the IT staff, so that management and key personnel understand the requirements and elements of internal control over financial reporting mandated by the U.S. securities laws;

 

  Setting up budgets and developing expectations based on understanding of the business operations, compare the actual results with the expectations periodically and document the reasons for the fluctuations with further analysis. This should be done by CFO and reviewed by CEO upon their communications with the Board;
     
  Strengthening our corporate governance;

 

  Setting up policies and procedures for the Company’s related party identification to properly identify, record and disclose related party transactions; and

 

  Setting up proper procedures for the Company’s fund disbursement process to ensure that cash is disbursed only upon proper authorization, for valid business purposes, and that all disbursements are properly recorded.

 

We cannot provide assurance that these or other measures will fully remediate our material weaknesses in a timely manner. If our remediation of these material weaknesses is not effective, it may cause our Company to become subject to investigation or sanctions by the SEC. It may also adversely affect investor confidence in our Company and, as a result, the value of our common stock. There can be no assurance that all existing material weaknesses have been identified, or that additional material weaknesses will not be identified in the future. In addition, if we are unable to continue to meet our financial reporting obligations, we may not be able to remain listed on Nasdaq.

 

Our ability to maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing requirements, including whether we are able to maintain the closing bid price of our common stock, could result in the delisting of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). To maintain this listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements.

 

On May 24, 2022, the Company received a delinquency notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) due to its delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company was provided 60 days to submit a plan to regain compliance. On July 25, 2022 and September 14, 2022, the Company submitted its Compliance Plan. Based on the review of the Compliance Plan as well as telephone conversations with outside counsel to the Company and counsel to the Company’s Special Committee, the Staff has determined that the Company did not provide a definitive plan evidencing its ability to file the Reports within the 180 calendar day period available to the Staff under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

 

On November 16, 2022, the Company received an additional staff determination notice from Nasdaq, advising that it had not received the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022, which served as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities and that the Panel will consider the additional deficiency in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on Nasdaq. The Company has submitted to the Panel a plan to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements, including the filing of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022.

 

On January 5, 2023, the Company received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq informing the Company that its common stock, no par value, fails to comply with the $1 minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) based upon the closing bid price of the common stock for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the notice from Nasdaq. The Company has been provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 5, 2023, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.

 

11

 

 

On February 21, 2023, the Company received an additional staff determination notice from Nasdaq, advising that it had not received the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2022, which served as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities. The notice stated that the Panel will consider the additional deficiency in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on Nasdaq. The Company has submitted to the Panel a plan to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements and has been granted a grace period to file all the delinquent reports, including the filing of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2022, on or before February 28, 2023.Given we did not file all the Reports within the grace period granted by the Panel, we may be delisted from Nasdaq. There can be also no assurance that our stock price will meet the minimum bid price requirement or we will meet other requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq. If our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq and we are unable to list our common stock on another national securities exchange, we expect our common stock would be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we and our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including the limited availability of market quotations for our common stock; substantially decreased trading in our common stock; decreased market liquidity of our common stock as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws; an adverse effect on our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, if at all; potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, partners, and employees and fewer business development opportunities; and limited news and analyst coverage. Additionally, the market price of our common stock may decline further, and stockholders may lose some or all of their investment.

 

For additional risks relating to our operations, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-3, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2021 and other filings we file with the SEC from time to time.

Overview

 

We previously focused on providing customized freight logistics services, but starting in 2017, we began exploring new opportunities to expand our business and generate more revenue. These opportunities ranged from complementary businesses to other new service and product initiatives. In the fiscal years 2021 and 2022, while we continued to provide our freight logistics business, we expanded our services to include warehousing services provided by our US subsidiary Brilliant Warehouse Service Inc. On January 3, 2022, we changed our corporate name to Singularity Future Technology Ltd. to align with our entry into the digital assets business through our U.S. subsidiaries. During 2022, we engaged in purchases and sales of cryptocurrency mining machines through our U.S. subsidiaries.

 

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, we operated in two operating segments, including (1) freight logistics services, through our subsidiaries in the U.S and PRC; and (2) purchase and sales of crypto mining machines, through our subsidiary Thor Miner. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company also engaged in shipping agency and management services, which were carried out by its subsidiary in the U.S. The Company no longer operates in the shipping agency segment because it did not receive any new orders for its services due to the uncertainty of the shipping management market which was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Recent Developments

 

The following events had a material impact on our financial statements. For other recent developments, see “Item 1. Business – Recent Developments.”

On January 10, 2022, Thor Miner entered into a purchase agreement with HighSharp. Pursuant to the agreement, Thor Miner agreed to purchase certain cryptocurrency mining equipment from HighSharp. In January and April 2022, Thor Miner made a total prepayment of $35,406,649 for the order. Thor Miner also entered into a PSA with SOSNY for the purchase of $200,000,000 in crypto mining rigs and received deposit form SOSNY in the amount of $48,930,000.

 

Due to production issue from HighSharp, Thor Miner was not able to timely deliver the products to SOSNY according to the delivery terms of the PSA and was sued by SOSNY for breach of contract on December 9, 2022. On December 23, 2022, the Company entered into the Settlement Agreement with SOSNY pursuant to which the Company paid $13.0 million to SOSNY in exchange for SOSNY dismissing the lawsuit and will transfer any additional funds it receives from HighSharp to SOSNY in an amount not to exceed $40,560,569.

 

As of December 22, 2022, the balance of advance to HighSharp and deposit from SOSNY amounted to $27,927,583 and $40,560,569, respectively. Thor Miner paid $13.0 million on December 28, 2022 to SOSNY and wrote off the balance of the deposit it received from SOSNY and the balance of its payment to HighSharp.   

 

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements 

 

From March to June 2019, the Company’s subsidiary Trans Pacific Logistic Shanghai Ltd (“Trans Pacific Shanghai”) received approximately $6.2 million (RMB 40 million) from a related party, Shanghai Baoyin Industrial Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Baoyin”), to pay for accounts receivable of six different customers totaling RMB 40 million. Shanghai Baoyin is 30% owned by Wang Qinggang, the CEO and legal representative of Trans Pacific Shanghai. Trans Pacific Shanghai subsequently paid RMB 20 million and RMB 10 million to Zhangjiakou Baoyu Trading Co. Ltd. (“Baoyu”), a third party, in April 2019 and July 2019, respectively, and it made an additional payment of RMB 10 million to Hebei Baoxie Trading Co., Ltd. (“Hebei Baoxie”), a third party, in July 2019.

 

As such, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, accounts receivable was understated by RMB 40 million, advance to supplier was overstated by RMB 20 million, and other payables from Shanghai Baoyin, a related party, were understated by RMB 20 million. There was an overstatement of RMB 20 million in total assets and an understatement of total liabilities of RMB 20 million.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, Hebei Baoxie repaid a total of RMB 10 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai, and Trans Pacific Shanghai advanced the RMB 10 million to Shanghai Baoyin. The RMB 10 million paid to Shanghai Baoyin was recorded as other receivable, and the RMB 30 million advance to Baoyu was reclassified from an advance to supplier to other receivable. The Company provided a full allowance of its receivables totaling RMB 40 million. The Company evaluated this transaction and determined there is no impact on its assets, liabilities, or retained earnings as of June 30, 2020.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, Baoyu repaid a total of RMB 30 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai. The RMB 30 million received was recorded as recovery of bad debt. Trans Pacific Shanghai then loaned the same amount to Shanghai Baoyin. Shanghai Baoyin subsequently repaid RMB 4 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai, and Trans Pacific Shanghai loaned the same amount to Wang Qinggang. The RMB 30 million received was recorded as recovery of bad debt for other receivable and the RMB 30 million paid was recorded as a related party loan receivable.

 

The Company analyzed the transactions and determined the RMB 30 million was originally from Shanghai Baoyin and eventually paid back to the same related parties. Recovery of bad debt and related party loan receivable was overstated by RMB 30 million for the fiscal year 2021.

 

The Company restated its fiscal year 2021 financial statements to restate related party loans receivable and bad debt recovery.

Impact of COVID-19  

 

The outbreak of the COVID-19 starting from late January 2020 in the PRC has spread rapidly to many parts of the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic. Given the continually expanding of COVID-19 pandemic in China and United States, our business, results of operations, and financial condition are still adversely affected.

 

In early December 2022, Chinese government eased the strict control measure for COVID-19, which has led to surge in increased infections and disruption in our business operations. Any future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s China operation results will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and resurgence of COVID-19 variants and the actions taken by government authorities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, almost all of which are beyond our control.

 

The impacts of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, and results of operations include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  Our customers have been negatively impacted by the pandemic, which reduced their demand for freight logistics services. As a result, our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2022 was down by approximately $1.2 million, or 22.6%.

 

  Due to travel restrictions between US and China, our new business development for existing segments or new ventures has been slowed down.
     
  Our sales of crypto mining machines were materially adversely affected by COVID-19. Specifically, Crypto mining machine manufacturers have been impacted by the constrained supply of the semiconductors used in the production of the highly specialized crypto mining machines; COVID-related issues have exacerbated port congestion and intermittent supplier shutdowns and delays, resulting in delayed shipments and additional expenses to expedite delivery; as a result, we were unable to fulfil our customer orders on a timely basis, resulting cancellation of orders and partial refund of purchase price, as evident from the settlement in SOSNY. 

 

15

 

 

We have been, and may continue to be, negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID-19, which may continually impact our cost of freight, or result in higher cost of revenue, which may in turn materially adversely affect our financial condition and operating results in coming months. 

 

Any future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operation results will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and resurgence of COVID-19 variants and the actions taken by government authorities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, almost all of which are beyond our control.

Revenues

 

Shipping Agency and Management Services

 

For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we did not generate any revenue from shipping agency and management services as we did not receive any new orders for our services due to the uncertainty of the shipping management market which was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

  

Freight Logistics Services

 

Freight logistics services primarily consist of cargo forwarding, brokerage, warehouse and other freight services. Revenues from freight logistics services were $3,830,615 for the year ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $1,113,572, or approximately 22.5%, as compared to $4,944,187 for the year ended June 30, 2021.

 

This decrease in revenue was mainly due to a decrease of approximately $1.9 million from the transportation services of our PRC operations where demand was impacted by various business disruptions due to the resurgence of COVID-19 variants which caused a decrease in spending by our major customers. The decrease was offset by approximately $0.8 million of warehouse and logistics services that we started to provide in the fiscal year 2022 through our subsidiaries, Gorgeous Trading Ltd. and Brilliant Warehouse Service, Inc.

 

17

 

 

Sales of Crypto Mining Machines

 

On January 10, 2022, Thor Miner entered into the PSA with SOSNY, a wholly owned subsidiary of SOS Ltd. Pursuant to the PSA, Thor Miner agreed to sell to SOSNY certain cryptocurrency mining hardware and other equipment. The total purchase price was $200,000,000 and the purchase was expected to be completed under separate purchase orders. Thor Miner made two shipments in June 2022 and we recognized net revenue of $157,800.  We recognized the sales of cryptocurrency mining equipment based on a net basis as the manufacturer of the products is responsible for shipping and custom clearing for the products. Gross revenue and the gross cost of revenue amounted to $1,483,320 and $1,325,520, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2022.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues for our freight logistics services segment mainly consisted of freight costs to various freight carriers, cost of labor, warehouse rent and other overhead and sundry costs. Cost of revenues for our freight logistics services segment was $4,136,474 for the year ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $660,953, or approximately 13.8%, as compared to $4,797,427 for the year ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the decrease in freight costs of our PRC operations caused by the decrease in shipping volume due to the pandemic. 

 

Our gross margin was (3.7%) and 3.4% for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This decrease in gross margin in freight logistics segment was mainly due to rising costs for our PRC operations as we are not able to negotiate better price with our freight carrier due to decrease in volume. In addition, we started our warehouse services this year and we have higher fixed costs including warehouse rent and salaries when we are developing the business.

 

Our cost of revenue for the sale of crypto-mining equipment was nil as we recognized revenue on a net basis and hence the higher margin which increased the Company’s margin of (8.0)% from freight logistics segment to (3.7%).

 

Operating Costs and Expenses

 

Operating costs and expenses increased by $10,737,621 or approximately 67.4% from $26,679,459 for the year ended June 30, 2022 compared to $15,941,838 for the year ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to the increase in selling expenses, stock-based compensation, general and administrative expenses and impairment expenses as more fully discussed below. 

 

Selling Expenses

 

Our selling expenses consisted primarily of salaries and travel expenses for our sales representatives. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we had $385,890 in selling expenses, as compared to $297,906 for the year ended June 30, 2021, which represents an increase of $87,984 or approximately 29.5%. The increase was due to an increase of marketing expenses of approximately $0.2 million to promote our freight logistics business. 

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, travel expenses for our administration department, office expenses, and regulatory filing and professional service fees for auditing, legal and IT consulting. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we had $9,301,784 general and administrative expenses, as compared to $5,605,670 for the year ended June 30, 2021, representing an increase of $3,696,114, or approximately 65.9%. This significant increase was mainly due to the increase in salaries, wages and office related costs of approximately $3.0 million as we hired more employees and rented new warehouses for our subsidiaries Gorgeous Trading Ltd. and Brilliant Warehouse Service, Inc. This was also due to additional professional fees of approximately $0.5 million mainly fees made for the Company’s special investigation.

 

Impairment Loss of Cryptocurrencies

 

We recorded $170,880 in impairment loss for the year ended June 30, 2022 due to a recent price drop in bitcoin, which the Company deemed a triggering event for impairment testing.

 

18

 

 

Impairment Loss of Fixed Assets and Right of Use Assets

 

We performed our annual goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2022 and concluded we had approximately $1.0 million in impairment loss for fixed assets and right of use assets, as our carrying value exceeds the fair value. The fair values are determined by income approach where projected future cash flows discounted at rates commensurate with the risks involved, (“Discounted Cash Flow” or “DCF” of the income approach). Assumptions used in a DCF analysis require the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates and terminal values, growth rates, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows.

 

We recorded impairment loss of $855,230 for the year ended June 30, 2021 primarily for our mining equipment due to a regulation change in China that banned cryptocurrency mining.

 

Provision for Doubtful Accounts, Net of Recovery

 

Our total bad debt expenses amounted to approximately $2.0 million, mostly because we estimated that we cannot timely collect the advances we made to certain related parties, which includes approximately $1.3 million to Shanghai Baoyin which is 30% owned by Wang Qinggang, and approximately $0.6 million in advances to LSM trading Ltd, of which we hold a 40% ownership interest. The advances were non-interest bearing and due on demand. We had net recovery of other receivable of approximately $0.4 million from other receivable as we continued collection of the receivables that were previously reserved. We had approximately $4.2 million of provision for the fiscal year 2021 for our accounts receivable and long-term deposits, representing a decrease of $2,595,134, or approximately 61.7%.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation was $10,064,622  for the year ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $10,064,622 or 100.0%, as compared to nil for the year ended June 30, 2021 due to stock grants to our directors, employees and consultants in the fiscal year 2022.

 

Loss from disposal of subsidiaries and VIE

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements to terminate its VIE structure and deconsolidated its formerly controlled entity Sino-China. The Company controlled Sino-China through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans Pacific Beijing. The Company made the decision to dissolve the VIE structure and Sino-China because Sino-China has no active operations and the Company wanted to remove any potential risks associated with any VIE structures. The Company also dissolved its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping LA, Inc., and on March 14, 2022, the Company discontinued its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping Canada, Inc. The total loss of three disposals amounted to approximately $6.1 million. Since these entities did not have any active operations prior to their disposal, the disposal did not represent a strategic change in the Company’s business. As such, the disposal was not presented as a discontinued operation. 

 

Other Expenses, Net

 

Other expenses, net for the year ended June 30, 2022 mainly consists of interest expenses for our convertible debts of approximately $0.1 million and other finance charges, net of interest earned. Total other expenses, net was approximately $0.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2021 which mainly consisted of a settlement payment loss of a dispute on cooperative profit sharing of approximately $0.8 million, offset by the PPP loan forgiveness which we recorded as a gain of approximately $0.1 million and the income generated from cryptocurrencies mining of approximately $0.3 million.

 

Taxes

 

Our income tax expenses amounted to nil and $3,450 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

We have incurred a cumulative U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) of approximately $12,543,000 as of June 30, 2021, which may reduce future federal taxable income. During the year ended June 30, 2022, approximately $9,700,000 of NOL was generated and the tax benefit derived from such NOL was approximately 2,000,000.

 

Our operations in China incurred a cumulative a cumulative NOL of approximately $6,026,000 as of June 30, 2021, which was mainly from Sino-China which we disposed of during the year ended June 30, 2022. During the year ended June 30, 2022, we generated an additional NOL of approximately $4,845,000. As of June 30, 2022, our PRC subsidiaries’ cumulative NOL amounted to approximately $1,283,000 which may reduce future taxable income and will expire by 2026.

 

19

 

 

We periodically evaluate the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and reduce the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe a portion will not be realized. Management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect our future realization of deferred tax assets, including our recent cumulative earnings experience, expectations of future income, the carry forward periods available for tax reporting purposes and other relevant factors. We determined that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would not be realized due to uncertainty for future earnings due to the Company’s reorganization and venture into new businesses. We provided a 100% allowance for deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2022. The net decrease in valuation for the year ended June 30, 2022 amounted to approximately $1.0 million based on management’s reassessment of the amount of our deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized.

 

Net Loss

 

As a result of the foregoing, we had a net loss of $28,928,369 for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11,302,853 for the year ended June 30, 2021. After the deduction of non-controlling interest, net loss attributable to us was $28,257,830 for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to $10,900,168 for the same period in 2021. Comprehensive loss attributable to us was $27,482,995 for the year ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $10,545,234 for the year ended June 30, 2021.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash Flows and Working Capital

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had $55,833,282 in cash (including cash on hand and cash in bank). The majority of our cash is in banks located in the U.S.

 

On December 19, 2021, the Company issued two convertible notes to two non-U.S. investors for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 (the “December 2021 Convertible Notes”).

 

The December 2021 Convertible Notes bear interest at 5% annually and may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $3.76 per share. At the investors’ request, we prepaid $5,000,000 in the aggregate principal amount, without interest, of the December 2021 Convertible Notes on March 8, 2022. Interest for the principal of $5,000,000 repaid was waived.

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had the following loans outstanding:

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of its management, including the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing evaluation, the Chief Operating Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms due to ineffective internal controls over financial reporting as more fully described below.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting  

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets;

 

  provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of its management and directors; and

 

  provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

22

 

 

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on the Company’s assessment, management has concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the following material weaknesses for the year ended and as of June 30, 2022:

 

  Lack of segregation of duties for accounting personnel who prepared and reviewed the journal entries in some of the subsidiaries within the consolidation, lack of supervision, coordination and communication of financial information between different entities within the Group;

 

  Lack of a full time U.S. GAAP personnel in the accounting department to monitor the recording of the transactions which led to error in revenue recognition in previously issued financial statements;

 

  Lack of resources with technical competency to address, review and record non-routine or complex transactions under U.S. GAAP;

 

 

Lack of management control reviews of the budget against actual with analysis of the variance with a precision that can be explained through the analysis of the accounts;

     
 

Lack of proper procedures in identifying and recording related party transactions which led to restatement of previously issued financial statements (See Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statement footnotes);

 

 

Lack of proper procedures to maintain supporting documents for accounting record; and

 

 

Lack of proper oversight for the Company’s cash disbursement process that led to misuse of the Company funds by its former executive.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard AS 2201, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

In order to remediate the material weaknesses stated above, we intend to implement the following measures, policies and procedures:

 

  Hiring additional accounting staff to report the internal financial timely;
     
 

Hiring of CEO and CFO to properly set up the Company’s internal control and oversight process;

 

  Reporting other material and non-routine transactions to the Board and obtain proper approval;

 

  Recruiting additional qualified professionals with appropriate levels of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience to assist in resolving accounting issues in non-routine or complex transactions;

 

  Developing and conducting U.S. GAAP knowledge, SEC reporting and internal control training to senior executives, management personnel, accounting departments and the IT staff, so that management and key personnel understand the requirements and elements of internal control over financial reporting mandated by the U.S. securities laws;

 

 

Setting up budgets and developing expectations based on understanding of the business operations, compare the actual results with the expectations periodically and document the reasons for the fluctuations with further analysis. This should be done by CFO and reviewed by CEO upon their communications with the Board;

     
Strengthening our corporate governance;

 

 

Setting up policies and procedures for the Company’s related party identification to properly identify, record and disclose related party transactions; and

 

 

Setting up proper procedures for the Company’s fund disbursement process to ensure that cash is disbursed only upon proper authorization, for valid business purposes, and that all disbursements are properly recorded.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Singularity Future Technology Ltd. (formerly know as “Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd.”)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Singularity Future Technology Ltd. (formerly known as “Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd.”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements and schedule (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph on Correction of a Misstatement

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the 2021 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct a misstatement.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Audit Alliance LLP

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since October 28, 2020

SINGULARITY FUTURE TECHNOLOGY, LTD. AND AFFILIATES

 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

The Company is a global logistics integrated solution provider that was founded in the United States in 2001. On September 18, 2007, the Company amended the Article of Incorporation and Bylaws to merge into a new corporation, Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd. in Virginia. The Company primarily focus on providing logistics and support to businesses in the PRC and United States. On January 3, 2022, the Company changed its corporate name from Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd. to Singularity Future Technology Ltd. to reflect its expanded operations into the digital assets business.

 

The Company conducts its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the PRC (including Hong Kong) and the United States, where the majority of its clients are located. As of June 30, 2022, the Company operated in two segments: (1) freight logistics services which include shipping and warehouse services, which are operated by its subsidiaries in both the United States and PRC, and (2) sale of crypto-mining machines, which were operated by its subsidiaries in the United States. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company was also engaged in shipping agency and management services, which were carried out by its subsidiary in the U.S. The Company no longer operates in the shipping agency segment because it did not receive any new orders for its services due to the uncertainty of the shipping management market which was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

On March 2, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with Hebei Yanghuai Technology Co., Ltd. (“Yanghuai”) for the purchase of 2,783 digital currency mining servers. The Company acquired approximately $0.9 million of crypto equipment from Yanghuai. Over the last two months of the Company’s 2021 fiscal year, national and local governments in China gradually restricted and banned cryptocurrency mining operations, causing owners of servers to cease operations. Based on an amended agreement signed by the Company and Yanghuai on September 17, 2021, the Company is not liable for the remainder of the contract price and has title to half of the cryptocurrency products. The Company recorded impairment for the mining equipment in the last quarter of 2021 in the amount of approximately $0.9 million.

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements to terminate its variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure and deconsolidated its formerly controlled entity Sino-Global Shipping Agency Ltd. (“Sino-China”). The Company controlled Sino-China through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans Pacific Shipping Limited (“Trans Pacific Beijing”). The Company made the decision to dissolve both the VIE structure and Sino-China because Sino-China had no active operations and the Company wanted to remove any potential risks associated with any VIE structures. In addition, the Company dissolved its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping LA on December 26, 2021 as this subsidiary had no material operation, Inc. On March 14, 2022, the Company dissolved its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping Canada, Inc. (See Note 3 for details).

 

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) beginning in late January 2020 in the PRC has spread rapidly to many parts of the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic. This has resulted in quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores and business facilities in China and the U.S. Given the rapidly expanding nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, and because majority of the Company’s freights logistic segments and its workforce are concentrated in China., the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition have been adversely affected for the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. In early December 2022, the Chinese government eased the strict control measure for COVID-19, which has led to a surge in increased infections and a disruption in our business operations. Any future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operation results will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and resurgence of COVID-19 variants and the actions taken by government authorities to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, almost all of which are beyond our control.

Restatement of previously issued financial statements

 

From March to June 2019, the Company’s subsidiary Trans Pacific Logistic Shanghai Ltd (“Trans Pacific Shanghai”) received approximately $6.2 million (RMB 40 million) from a related party, Shanghai Baoyin Industrial Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Baoyin”) which is 30% owned by Wang Qinggang, CEO and legal representative of Trans Pacific Shanghai, to pay for accounts receivables of 6 different customers totaled RMB 40 million. Trans Pacific Shanghai then paid RMB 20 million and RMB 10 million to Zhangjiakou Baoyu Trading Co. Ltd. (“Baoyu”) in April 2019 and July 2019, respectively and paid RMB 10 million to Hebei Baoxie Trading Co., Ltd.(“ Hebei Baoxie”), a third party in July 2019.

 

As such for fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, accounts receivable was understated by RMB 40 million and advance to supplier was overstated by RMB 20 million and other payable from related party Shanghai Baoyin was understated by RMB 20 million. There was an overstatement of RMB 20 million in total assets and understatement of total liabilities of RMB 20 million.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, Baoxie repaid RMB 10 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai and Trans Pacific Shanghai advanced the RMB 10 million to Shanghai Baoyin. The RMB 10 million paid to Shanghai Baoyin was recorded as other receivable and the advance to Baoyu of RMB 30 million was reclassified from advance to supplier to other receivable and the Company provided full allowance of its receivables totaled RMB 40 million. The Company evaluated the transaction and determined there is no impact on its assets, liabilities and retained earnings as of June 30, 2020.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, Baoyu repaid a total of RMB 30 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai. The RMB 30 million received was recorded as recovery of bad debt. Trans Pacific Shanghai then loaned the RMB 30 million to Shanghai Baoyin. Shanghai Baoyin subsequently repaid RMB 4 million to Trans Pacific Shanghai and Trans Pacific Shanghai loaned RMB 4 million to Wang Qinggang. The RMB 30 million received was recorded as recovery of bad debt for other receivable and the RMB 30 million paid was recorded as a related party loan receivable.

 

The Company analyzed the transaction and determined the RMB 30 million was originally from related party Shanghai Baoyin and eventually paid back to the same related parties, therefore recovery of bad debt and loan receivable related parties was overstated by RMB 30 million for fiscal year 2021.

Prior to December 31, 2021, Sino-China was considered a VIE, with the Company as the primary beneficiary. The Company, through Trans Pacific Beijing, entered into certain agreements with Sino-China, pursuant to which the Company received 90% of Sino-China’s net income.

  

As a VIE, Sino-China’s revenues were included in the Company’s total revenues, and any income or loss from operations were consolidated with that of the Company. Because of contractual arrangements between the Company and Sino-China, the Company had a pecuniary interest in Sino-China that required consolidation of the financial statements of the Company and Sino-China.

 

The Company has consolidated Sino-China’s operating results in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, “Consolidation.” The agency relationship between the Company and Sino-China and its branches was governed by a series of contractual arrangements pursuant to which the Company had substantial control over Sino-China. Management makes ongoing reassessments of whether the Company remains the primary beneficiary of Sino-China. On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements to terminate its VIE structure and deconsolidated its formerly controlled entity Sino-China.

 

Loss from disposal of Sino-China amounted to approximately $6.1 million. Since Sino-China did not have any active operation prior to disposal, the disposal did not represent a strategic change in the Company’s business, as such the disposal was not presented as discontinued operations.

(b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 — Observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s assumptions based on the best available information.

 

The carrying value of accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets, and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

  

(c) Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, fair value of stock-based compensation, cost of revenues, allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment loss, deferred income taxes, income tax expense and the useful lives of property and equipment. The inputs into the Company’s judgments and estimates consider the economic implications of COVID-19 on the Company’s critical and significant accounting estimates. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(d) Translation of Foreign Currency

 

The accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”) while its subsidiaries in the PRC, including Trans Pacific Beijing and Trans Pacific Logistic Shanghai Ltd. report their financial positions and results of operations in Renminbi (“RMB”), its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping Australia Pty Ltd., reports its financial positions and results of operations in Australian dollar (“AUD”), its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping (HK), Ltd. reports its financial positions and results of operations in Hong Kong dollar (“HKD”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in USD. Foreign currency transactions are translated into USD using the fixed exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Generally, foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company translates the foreign currency financial statements in accordance with ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Matters”. Assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the balance sheets’ dates and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive loss and accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of equity of the Company, and also included in non-controlling interests.

(e) Cash

 

Cash consists of cash on hand and cash in bank which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use. The Company maintains cash with various financial institutions mainly in the PRC, Australia, Hong Kong and the U.S. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, cash balances of $143,044 and $629,731, respectively, were maintained at financial institutions in the PRC. Nil and $201,990 of these balances are not covered by insurance as the deposit insurance system in China only insured each depositor at one bank for a maximum of approximately $70,000 (RMB 500,000). As of, June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, cash balances of $55,636,636 and $44,203,436, respectively, were maintained at U.S. financial institutions. $53,869,575 and $43,507,335 of these balances are not covered by insurance, as each U.S. account was insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs subject to $250,000 limitations. The Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board pays compensation up to a limit of HKD 500,000 (approximately $64,000) if the bank with which an individual/a company holds its eligible deposit fails. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, cash balances of $51,701 and $3,457, respectively, were maintained at financial institutions in Hong Kong and were insured by the Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board. As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, cash balances of $192 and $693, respectively, were maintained at Australia financial institutions, and were insured as the Australian government guarantees deposits up to AUD 250,000 (approximately $172,000). As of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, amount of deposits the Company had covered by insurance amounted to $1,961,997 and $1,125,838, respectively.

 

(f) Cryptocurrencies

 

Cryptocurrencies, mainly bitcoin, are included in current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Cryptocurrencies purchased are recorded at cost and cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities are accounted for as other income for the year ended June 30, 2021. No other income was generated for the year ended June 30, 2022. Fair value of the cryptocurrency award received is determined using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency at the time of receipt.

 

Cryptocurrencies held are accounted for as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is measured using the quoted price of the cryptocurrency at the time its fair value is being measured. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted.

 

(g) Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are presented at net realizable value. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts and for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual receivable balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balances, customers’ historical payment history, their current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Receivables are generally considered past due after 180 days. The Company reserves 25%-50% of the customers balance aged between 181 days to 1 year, 50%-100% of the customers balance over 1 year and 100% of the customers balance over 2 years. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowances only after exhaustive collection efforts. As the Company has focused its development on the shipping management segment, its customer base consists of more smaller privately owned companies that will pay more timely than state owned companies.

 

Other receivables represent mainly customer advances, prepaid employee insurance and welfare benefits, which will be subsequently deducted from the employee payroll, project advances as well as office lease deposits. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the bad debt allowance is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. Other receivables are written off against the allowances only after exhaustive collection efforts.

 

F-12

 

 

(h) Property and Equipment, net

 

Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the assets to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Buildings 20 years
Motor vehicles 3-10 years
Computer and office equipment 1-5 years
Furniture and fixtures 3-5 years
System software 5 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of lease term or useful lives
Mining equipment 3 years

 

The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired by the Company when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is less than its carrying value. If impairment is identified, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved or based on independent appraisals. For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, nil and $855,230 impairment were recorded, respectively.

 

(i) Investments in unconsolidated entity

 

Entities in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest, are accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is generally considered to exist when the Company has voting shares representing 20% to 50%, and other factors, such as representation on the board of directors, voting rights and the impact of commercial arrangements, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under this method of accounting, the Company records its proportionate share of the net earnings or losses of equity method investees and a corresponding increase or decrease to the investment balances. Dividends received from the equity method investments are recorded as reductions in the cost of such investments. The Company generally considers an ownership interest of 20% or higher to represent significant influence. The Company accounts for the investments in entities over which it has neither control nor significant influence, and no readily determinable fair value is available, using the investment cost minus any impairment, if necessary.

 

Investments are evaluated for impairment when facts or circumstances indicate that the fair value of the long-term investment is less than its carrying value. An impairment loss is recognized when a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary. The Company reviews several factors to determine whether a loss is other-than-temporary. These factors include, but are not limited to, the: (i) nature of the investment; (ii) cause and duration of the impairment; (iii) extent to which fair value is less than cost; (iv) financial condition and near term prospects of the investment; and (v) ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a cooperation agreement with Mr. Shanming Liang, a shareholder of the Company, to set up a joint venture in New York named LSM Trading Ltd., (“LSM”) in which the Company holds a 40% equity interest. Mr. Shanming Liang subsequently transferred his shares to Guanxi Golden Bridge Industry Group Co., Ltd in October 2021. For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company invested $210,010 in LSM. The joint venture has not started its operations due to COVID-19 and substantially all of the Company’s investment was deposited in bank account with LSM and LSM has only incurred some administrative expenses. The Company recorded $47,181 investment loss for the year ended June 30, 2022.

 

F-13

 

 

(j) Convertible notes

 

The Company evaluates its convertible notes to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is recorded at fair value each reporting period and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statements of operations as other income or expense.

 

(k) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue which represents 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. The Company identifies contractual performance obligations and determines 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 uses a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires the Company to (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.

 

For the Company’s freight logistic and shipping agency services revenue, the Company provided transportation services which included mainly shipping services. In fiscal year 2021, the Company also provided shipping agency and management services The Company derived transportation revenue from sales contracts with its customers with revenues being recognized upon performance of services. Sales price to the customer was fixed upon acceptance of the sales contract and there was no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. The Company’s revenues were recognized at a point in time after all performance obligations were satisfied.

 

For the Company’s warehouse services, which are included in the freight logistic services, the Company’s contracts provide the customer an integrated service that includes two or more services, including but not limited to warehousing, collection, first-mile delivery, drop shipping, customs clearance packaging, etc.

 

Accordingly, the Company generally identifies one performance obligation in its contracts, which is a series of distinct services that remain substantially the same over time and possess the same pattern of transfer. Revenue is recognized over the period in which services are provided under the terms of the Company’s contractual relationships with its clients.

 

The transaction price is based on the amount specified in the contract with the customer and contains fixed and variable consideration. In general, the fixed consideration in a contract represents facility and equipment costs incurred to satisfy the performance obligation and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. The variable consideration is comprised of cost reimbursement determined based on the costs incurred. Revenue relating to variable pricing is estimated and included in the consideration if it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in the future. The estimate of variable consideration is determined by the expected value or most likely amount method and factors in current, past and forecasted experience with the customer. Customers are billed based on terms specified in the revenue contract and they pay us according to approved payment terms.

 

Revenue for the above services is recognized on a gross basis when the Company controls the services as it has the obligation to (i) provide all services (ii) bear any inventory risk for warehouse services. In addition, the Company has control to set its selling price to ensure it would generate profit for the services.

 

For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company also engaged in sales of cryptocurrency mining equipment.

 

On January 10, 2022, the Company’s joint venture, Thor Minor, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with SOS Information Technology New York Inc. (the “Buyer”). Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, Thor agreed to sell and the Buyer agreed to purchase certain cryptocurrency mining equipment. The Company made 2 shipments in June 2022.

 

F-14

 

 

The Company’s performance obligation is to deliver products according to contract specifications. The Company recognizes product revenue at a point in time when the control of products or services are transferred to customers. To distinguish a promise to provide products from a promise to facilitate the sale from a third party, the Company considers the guidance of control in ASC 606-10-55-37A and the indicators in 606-10-55-39. The Company considers this guidance in conjunction with the terms in the Company’s arrangements with both suppliers and customers.

 

In general, revenue is recognized on a gross basis when the Company controls the products as it has the obligation to (i) fulfill the products delivery and custom clearance (ii) bear any inventory risk as legal owners. In addition, when establishing the selling prices for delivery of the resale products, the Company has control to set its selling price to ensure it would generate profit for the products delivery arrangements. If the Company is not responsible for provision of product and does not bear inventory risk, the Company recorded revenue on a net basis.

 

For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized the sale of cryptocurrency mining equipment based on net basis as the manufacturer of the products are responsible for shipping and custom clearing for the products.

 

Contract balances

 

The Company records receivables related to revenue when the Company has an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment.

 

Deferred revenue consists primarily of customer billings made in advance of performance obligations being satisfied and revenue being recognized. Contract balance amounted to $6,955,577 and $471,516 for the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Refund payable amounted to $13,000,000 and nil for the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively as a result of termination of the contract with customer (See Note 21 for details).

 

The Company’s disaggregated revenue streams are described as follows:

 

    For the Years Ended  
    June 30 ,     June 30,  
    2022     2021  
Sale of crypto mining machines   $ 157,800     $ -

Freight logistics services     3,830,615       4,944,187  
Total   $ 3,988,415     $ 5,151,032  

 

Disaggregated information of revenues by geographic locations are as follows:

 

    For the Years Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2022     2021  
PRC   $ 2,982,691     $ 4,921,022  
U.S.     1,005,724       230,010  
Total revenues   $ 3,988,415     $ 5,151,032  

 

(l) Leases

 

The Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842) for the year ended June 30, 2020, and elected the practical expedients that does not require us to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or fewer, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component. Upon adoption, the Company recognized right of use (“ROU”) assets and same amount of lease liabilities based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 7% based on the duration of lease terms.

 

F-15

 

 

Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the adoption date or the commencement date, whichever is earlier, based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company use its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

 

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception, therefore operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Its leases generally do not provide a residual guarantee. The operating lease ROU asset also excludes lease incentives. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. The Company has elected to include the carrying amount of operating lease liabilities in any tested asset group and include the associated operating lease payments in the undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows.

 

(m) Taxation

 

Because the Company and its subsidiaries and Sino-China were incorporated in different jurisdictions, they file separate income tax returns. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Deferred taxes, if any, are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the asset will not be utilized in the future.

 

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Income tax returns for the years prior to 2018 are no longer subject to examination by U.S. tax authorities.

  

PRC Enterprise Income Tax

 

PRC enterprise income tax is calculated based on taxable income determined under the PRC Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“PRC GAAP”) at 25%. Sino-China and Trans Pacific Beijing were incorporated in the PRC and are subject to the Enterprise Income Tax Laws of the PRC.

 

PRC Value Added Taxes and Surcharges

 

The Company is subject to value added tax (“VAT”). Revenue from services provided by the Company’s PRC subsidiaries, including Trans Pacific, and the VIE, and Sino-China, are subject to VAT at rates ranging from 9% to 13%. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified VAT paid to suppliers against their VAT liability. Net VAT liability is recorded in taxes payable on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

In addition, under the PRC regulations, the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIE are required to pay city construction tax (7%) and education surcharges (3%) based on the net VAT payments.

 

F-16

 

 

(n) Earnings (loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to holders of common stock of the Company by the weighted average number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock of the Company were exercised or converted into common stock of the Company. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if their effects would be anti-dilutive.

 

For the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there was no dilutive effect of potential shares of common stock of the Company because the Company generated net loss.  

 

(o) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with the authoritative guidance issued by Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income (loss) and its component in financial statements. Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under US GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of a foreign currency translation adjustment resulting from the Company not using the U.S. dollar as its functional currencies.

 

(p) Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to employees in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which requires that stock-based payment transactions with employees be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instrument issued and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period. The Company records stock-based compensation expense at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense over the employee’s requisite service period.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 amended by ASU 2018-07. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, stock compensation granted to non-employees has been determined as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measured and is recognized as an expense as the goods or services are received.  

 

Valuations of stock-based compensation are based upon highly subjective assumptions about the future, including stock price volatility and exercise patterns. The fair value of share-based payment awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee terminations. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

  

(q) Risks and Uncertainties

  

The Company’s business, financial position and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, health and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, health and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies or interpretations with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

  

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic. Given the rapidly expanding nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, and because substantially all of the Company’s business operations and the workforce are concentrated in China and United States, the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition have been adversely affected for the year ended June 30, 2022. The situation remains highly uncertain for any further outbreak or resurgence of the COVID-19. It is therefore difficult for the Company to estimate the impact on the business or operating results that might be adversely affected by any further outbreak or resurgence of COVID-19.

(r) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments— Credit Losses—Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this ASU address those stakeholders’ concerns by providing an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. For those entities, the targeted transition relief will increase comparability of financial statement information by providing an option to align measurement methodologies for similar financial assets. Furthermore, the targeted transition relief also may reduce the costs for some entities to comply with the amendments in Update 2016-13 while still providing financial statement users with decision-useful information. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which to update the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies applying for credit losses standard. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after July 1, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not early adopted this update and it will become effective on July 1, 2023 assuming the Company will remain eligible to be smaller reporting company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

  

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”. The amendments in this Update to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity.

Note 3. DISPOSAL OF VIE AND SUBSIDIAIRIES

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements to terminate its variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure and deconsolidated its formerly controlled entity Sino-Global Shipping Agency Ltd. (“Sino-China”). The Company controlled Sino-China through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans Pacific Shipping Limited (“Trans Pacific Beijing”). The Company made the decision to dissolve the VIE structure and Sino-China because Sino-China has no active operations and the Company wanted to remove any potential risks associated with any VIE structures. In addition, the Company dissolved its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping LA, Inc. On March 14, 2022, the company discontinued its subsidiary Sino-Global Shipping Canada, Inc., no gain or loss was recognized in the deconsolidation.

The loans and accrued interest are forgivable after eight weeks (or an extended 24-week covered period) as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The loan forgiveness amount will be reduced for any Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) advance that the Company receives. The amount of loan forgiveness will be further reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period. On February 24, 2021, the full amount of PPP loan was forgiven and no principle or interest need to be repaid, so the Company recorded such as a gain for the year ended June 30, 2021.

The Company evaluated the convertible notes agreement under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) amended by ASU 2020-06. ASC 815 generally requires the analysis embedded terms and features that have characteristics of derivatives to be evaluated for bifurcation and separate accounting in instances where their economic risks and characteristics are not clearly and closely related to the risks of the host contract. Based on terms of the convertible notes agreements, the Company’s notes are convertible for a fixed number of shares and do not require the Company to net settle. None of the embedded terms required bifurcation and liability classification.

For the year ended June 30, 2022, interest expenses related to the aforementioned convertible notes amounted to $132,977, respectively.

SOSNY and Defendants entered into a certain settlement agreement and general mutual release with an Effective Date of December 28, 2022 (“Settlement Agreement”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Thor Miner agreed to pay a sum of thirteen million in U.S. dollars ($13,000,000) (the “Settlement Payment”) to SOSNY in exchange for SOSNY dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice as to the settling Defendants and without prejudice as to all others.

The Company’s operations in the U.S. incurred a cumulative U.S. federal net operation loss (“NOL”) of approximately $12,543,000 as of June 30, 2021, which may reduce future federal taxable income. During the year ended June 30, 2022, approximately $9,700,000 of NOL was generated and the tax benefit derived from such NOL was approximately 2,000,000. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s cumulative NOL amounted to approximately $22,200,000 which may reduce future federal taxable income, of which approximately $1,400,000 will expire in 2037 and the remaining balance carried forward indefinitely.

 

The Company’s operations in China incurred a cumulative NOL of approximately $6,026,000 as of June 30, 2021 which was mainly from Sino-China which was disposed during the year ended June 30, 2022. During the year ended June 30, 2022, additional NOL of approximately $4,845,000 was generated. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s cumulative NOL amounted to approximately 1,283,000 which may reduce future taxable income which will expire by 2026.

 

The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets (“DTA”) and reduces the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent it believes a portion will not be realized. Management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect the Company’s future realization of deferred tax assets including its recent cumulative earnings experience, expectation of future income, the carry forward periods available for tax reporting purposes and other relevant factors. The Company determined that it is more likely than not its deferred tax assets could not be realized due to uncertainty on future earnings as a result of the company’s reorganization and venture into new businesses. The Company provided a 100% allowance for its DTA as of June 30, 2022. The net decrease in valuation for the year ended June 30, 2022 amounted to approximately $953,000, based on management’s reassessment of the amount of the Company’s deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized.
