to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and

such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures;

such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

although depreciation and amortization are recurring, non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
and

the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense, which has been a significant recurring expense and will continue to constitute a significant recurring expense for the foreseeable future, as equity awards are expected to continue to be
an important component of our compensation strategy.

Additional equity recognized from the difference between the total deemed transaction price and net assets acquired related to the Combination under IFRS.
|
e) |
In 2021, the Company was deemed to have incurred non-cash listing costs of approximately $209.4 million as a result of the IFRS accounting treatment of the Combination, as Cenntro was deemed to have received a 67% controlling interest in
CEGL (formerly NBG) and the Group was deemed to have incurred listing costs equaling the difference between the total deemed transaction price and total net assets. Under U.S. GAAP, the Combination is accounted for as a reverse
recapitalization, which is equivalent to the issuance of shares by Cenntro for the net assets of CEGL (formerly NBG), accompanied by a recapitalization).

Cenntro Automotive Group Limited (“CAG Cayman”) was formed in the Cayman Islands on August 22, 2014. CAG Cayman was the former parent of Cenntro (as defined below),
prior to the closing of the Combination (as defined below).
Cenntro Automotive Corporation (“CAC”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on March 22, 2013. CAC became CAG Cayman’s wholly owned company on May 26, 2016.
Cenntro Automotive Group Limited (“CAG HK”) was established by CAG Cayman on February 15, 2016 in Hong Kong. CAG HK is a non-operating, investment holding company,
which conducts business through its subsidiaries in mainland China and Hong Kong.
Cenntro Electric Group, Inc. (“CEG”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware by CAG Cayman on March 9, 2020.
Cenntro Electric Group Limited ACN 619 054 938, formerly known as Naked Brand Group Limited (“NBG”), was incorporated in Australia on May 11, 2017, and is the parent
company of Cenntro. NBG changed its name to Cenntro Electric Group Limited (“CEGL”) on December 30, 2021, in connection with the closing of the Combination.
CAC, CEG and CAG HK and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively known as “Cenntro”; CEGL and Cenntro are collectively known as the “Company”. The Company
designs and manufactures purpose–built, electric commercial vehicles (“ECVs”) used primarily in last mile delivery and industrial applications.
On March 25, 2022 and January 31, 2023, the Company entered into Share Purchase Agreements to acquire 65% and 35% of the issued and outstanding shares in Cenntro
Automotive Europe GmbH (“CAE”), formerly known as Tropos Motors Europe GmbH. For information of the Share Purchase Agreements, see Note 3 of this Annual Report, “Business Combination”.
Reverse recapitalization
On December 30, 2021, the Company consummated a stock purchase transaction (the “Combination”) pursuant to that certain stock purchase agreement, dated as of November
5, 2021 (the “Acquisition Agreement”) by and among CEGL (at the time, NBG), CAG Cayman, CAC, CEG and CAG HK, whereby CEGL purchased from CAG Cayman (i) all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of CAG HK, (ii) all of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of CAC, and (iii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, of CEG, in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of (i) 174,853,546 newly issuing ordinary shares of CEGL and (ii) the assumption of options to purchase an aggregate of 9,225,271 ordinary shares under the Cenntro Electric Group Limited Amended & Restated 2016 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Amended 2016 Plan”). The Combination closed on
December 30, 2021. Immediately prior to the consummation of the Combination, there were 86,402,708 ordinary shares of NBG issued and
outstanding. In connection with the closing of the Combination, CEGL changed its name from “Naked Brand Group Limited” to “Cenntro Electric Group Limited”.
Promptly following the closing of the Combination, CAG Cayman distributed the Acquisition Shares to the holders of its capital stock in accordance with (i) the
distribution described in the Acquisition Agreement and (ii) CAG Cayman’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, at the closing of the Combination, NBG assumed the Amended 2016 Plan
and each CAG Cayman employee stock option outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Combination under the Amended 2016 Plan was converted into an option to purchase a number of ordinary shares equal to the aggregate number of CAG Cayman
shares for which such stock option was exercisable immediately prior to the closing of the Combination multiplied by the exchange ratio of 0.71536
(the “Exchange Ratio”), as determined in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement, at an option exercise price equal to the exercise price per share of such stock option immediately prior to the closing of the Combination divided by the Exchange
Ratio.
Cenntro was deemed to be the accounting acquirer given Cenntro effectively controlled the consolidated entity after the Combination. Under U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles, the Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, which is equivalent to the issuance of shares by Cenntro for the net monetary assets of CEGL, accompanied by a recapitalization. Cenntro is deemed to be the
predecessor for accounting purposes and the historical financial statements of Cenntro became CEGL’s historical financial statements, with retrospective adjustments to give effect to the reverse recapitalization. The financial statements for
periods prior to the consummation of the reverse recapitalization are the combined financial statements of CAC, CEG and CAG HK and its consolidated subsidiaries.
As of June 30, 2023, CEGL’s subsidiaries are as follows:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Certain information and disclosures, which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to provide a fair presentation. The interim financial information should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or any
future periods.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that
affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include provision for doubtful accounts, lower of cost and net
realizable value of inventories, impairment losses for long-lived assets and investments, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and fair value measurement for share-based compensation expense, convertible promissory notes and warrants.
Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.
The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange
for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of a contract with the customer; (ii) determination of
performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company generates revenue primarily through sales of light-duty ECVs, sales of ECV parts, and sales of off-road electric vehicles. Revenue is recognized at a point
in time once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Revenue is recognized net of return allowance and any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Significant judgement is required to estimate return allowances. The Company reasonably estimate the possibility of return based on the historical experience, changes in judgments on these assumptions and estimates could materially impact the
amount of net revenues recognized.
Shipping and handling costs for product shipments occur prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods are accounted for as fulfilment costs rather than separate
performance obligations and recorded as sales and marketing expenses.
The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenues by product line for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
The Company’s revenues are derived from Europe, Asia and America. The following table sets forth disaggregation of revenue by customer location.
Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition was once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Accounts receivable represent revenue
recognized for the amounts invoiced and/or prior to invoicing when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and has an unconditional right to the payment.
Contractual liabilities primarily represent the Company’s obligation to transfer additional goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received
consideration. The consideration received remains a contractual liability until goods or services have been provided to the customer. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $479,499 and $1,038,005 revenue that was included in contractual
liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The following table provides information about receivables and contractual liabilities from contracts with customers:
Except for the ASUs (“Accounting Standards Updates”) issued but not yet adopted disclosed in “Note 2 (z) Recent Accounting Standards” of the Company 2022 Form 10-K,
there is no ASU issued by the FASB that is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 3 - BUSINESS COMBINATION
On March 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Share and Loan Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement I”) with Mosolf SE & Co. KG, a limited liability
partnership incorporated under the laws of Germany (“Seller” or “Mosolf” and, together with CEGL and CEG, the “Parties”), pursuant to which Mosolf agreed to sell to the Company (i) 65% of the issued and outstanding shares (the “TME Shares”) in Cenntro Automotive Europe GmbH, previously known as Tropos Motors Europe GmbH, a German limited liability company (“CAE”), and
(ii) 100% of the shareholder loan (the “Shareholder Loan”) which Mosolf previously provided to CAE (the “CAE Transaction”). CAE was one
of Cenntro’s private label channel partners and has been one of Cenntro’s largest customers since 2019.
The CAE Transaction closed on March 25, 2022. At closing of the CAE Transaction, the Company paid Mosolf EUR3,250,000 (or approximately USD$3.6 million) for the purchase of the TME Shares
and EUR11,900,000 (or approximately USD$13.0
million) for the purchase of the Shareholder Loan, for total aggregate consideration of EUR15,150,000 (or approximately USD$16.6 million). An aggregate of EUR3,000,000
(or approximately USD$3.3 million) of the purchase price is held in escrow to satisfy amounts payable to any of the buyer indemnified
parties in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement I.
The transaction constitutes a business combination for accounting purposes and is accounted for using the acquisition method under ASC 805. The Company is deemed to be
the accounting acquirer and the assets and liabilities of CAE are recorded at the fair value as of the date of the closing.
On December 13, 2022, the Company entered into another Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement II”) with Mosolf, pursuant to which Mosolf agreed to sell to
the Company its remaining 35% of the issued and outstanding shares in CAE in exchange for a purchase price of EUR1,750,000 (or approximately USD$1.86
million) (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was closed on January 31, 2023, as a result, CAE became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. This transaction was accounted for as equity transactions, no gain or loss was recognized in
consolidated statement of operations. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest was adjusted was recognized in equity attributable to the Company.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND WARRANT |
NOTE 13 - CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND WARRANT
Convertible Promissory Note
On July 20, 2022, the Company issued to investors convertible promissory note (“Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $61,215,000 due on July 19, 2023, unless earlier repurchased, converted or redeemed. The Note bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum, and the net proceed after deducting issuance expenses was $54,069,000.
The main terms of the Note are summarized as follows:
Conversion feature
At any time after the issue date until the Note is no longer outstanding, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into ordinary shares at the option of
the holder, at any time and from time to time.
Redemption feature
If the Company shall carry out one or more subsequent financings in excess of US$25,000,000 in gross proceeds, the holder shall have the right to (i) require the Company to first use up to 10% of the gross proceeds of such subsequent financing if the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Note is in excess of US$30,000,000 and (ii) require the Company to first use up to 20% of the gross
proceeds of such subsequent financing if the outstanding principal amount of the Note is US$30,000,000 or less to redeem all or a portion
of this Note for an amount in cash equal to the Mandatory Redemption Amount equal to 1.08 multiplied by the sum of principal amount
subject to the mandatory redemption, plus accrued but unpaid interest, plus liquidated damages, if any, and any other amounts.
In addition, if the closing price of the ordinary shares on the principal trading market is below the floor price of $1.00 per share for a period of ten consecutive trading days, the
holder shall have the right to require the Company to redeem the sum of principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest under the Note.
Contingent interest feature
The Note is subject to certain customary events of default. If any event of default occurs, the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest,
liquidated damages and other amounts owing, shall become immediately due and payable, and at the holder’s election, in cash at the mandatory default amount or in ordinary shares at the mandatory default amount at a conversion price equal to 85% of the 10-day volume weighted
average price. Commencing 5 days after the occurrence of any event of default, the interest shall accrue at an interest rate equal to
the lesser of 10% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.
The financial liability was initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each
reporting period date. The remaining estimated fair value adjustment is presented as other expense in the consolidated statement of operations, change in fair value of convertible notes.
The movement of Note during the six months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:
The estimated fair value of the Note upon issuance date December 31, 2022 and as of June 30, 2023 was computed using a Monte Carlo Simulation Model, which incorporates
significant inputs that are not observable in the market, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The unobservable inputs utilized for measuring the fair value of the Note reflects our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants
would use in valuing the Note as of the issuance date and subsequent reporting period.
We determined the fair value by using the following key inputs to the Monte Carlo Simulation Model:
Warrant
Accompany with the Note, the Company issued to the same investor warrants to purchase up to 24,733,336 ordinary shares of the Company, with an exercise price of $1.61 per
share, which may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis by using Black-Scholes model to determine the net settlement shares.
Additionally, after the Company completed the above Note financing, the Company issued to the placement agent warrants to purchase 2,473,334 ordinary shares of the Company at a same day, as part of the underwriter’s commission. The warrants
were issued with an exercise price of $1.77 per share.
Both warrants are exercisable from the date of issuance and have a term of five years from the date of issuance. They were presented as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value in accordance with ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.
The liabilities then, will be remeasured every reporting period with any change to fair value recorded as other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations.
The movement of warrants during the six months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:
The fair value for these two warrants were computed
using the Binomial model with the following assumptions:

Litigation
The Company may be involved in various legal proceedings, claims and other disputes arising from the commercial operations, projects, employees and other matters
which, in general, are subject to uncertainties and in which the outcomes are not predictable. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be
reasonably estimated. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.
In October 2021, Sevic Systems SE (“Sevic”), a former channel partner, commenced a
lawsuit against Shengzhou Machinery, one of Cenntro’s wholly owned subsidiaries, relating to a breach of contract for the sale of goods (the “Sevic Lawsuit”). Sevic filed its complaint with the People’s Court of Keqiao District, Shaoxing City,
Light Textile City (the “People’s Court”). In the Sevic Lawsuit, Sevic alleges that the Shengzhou Machinery provided it with certain unmarketable goods and requests that the People’s Court (i) terminate two signed purchase orders signed on July 22, 2019 under its sales contract with Shengzhou Machinery signed on August 13, 2019 and (ii) award Sevic money damages for the
cost of goods of $465,400, as well as interest and incidental losses, including freight and storage costs, for total damages of
approximately $628,109. The parties entered into mediation and on July 27, 2023, the People’s Court issued a civil
mediation letter stating that i) both Sevic and Shengzhou Machinery agreed to terminate (x) two purchase orders signed on July 22, 2019
and (y) the sales contract signed on August 13, 2019; ii) Shengzhou Machinery shall pay Sevic a sum of approximately $13,908 by August 7,
2023; iii) Sevic voluntarily waived all other claims; and iv) Sevic shall pay the case acceptance fee and the property preservation application fee totaling approximately $3,429. After the completion of the meditation, no other disputes were outstanding between the two parties.
On March 25, 2022, Shengzhou Hengzhong Machinery Co., Ltd. (“Shengzhou Machinery”), an affiliate of Cenntro Automotive Corporation, filed a demand for arbitration
against Tropos Technologies, Inc. with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), asserting claims for breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Shengzhou Machinery is seeking payment of $1,126,640 (exclusive of interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees) for outstanding invoices owed by Tropos Technologies, Inc. to Shengzhou Machinery. As of the date of, Tropos Technologies, Inc.
has not yet formally responded to the demand. On February 16, 2023, AAA appointed an arbitrator and both parties are waiting for further proceedings under the arbitration process. On April 25, 2023, Tropos Technologies, Inc. filed a motion to
dismiss the arbitration demand. On May 23, 2023, Shengzhou Machinery filed a response in opposition to the motion to dismiss the arbitration demand. As of the date of this report, the parties are awaiting further proceedings under the arbitration
process.
In June 2022, Sevic Systems SE (“Sevic”) filed for injunctive relief in a corporate court in Brussels, Belgium, alleging CAE infringement of Sevic’s intellectual
property (“IP”) rights. The injunctive action was also directed against LEIE Center SRL (“LEIE”) and Cedar Europe GmbH (“Cedar”), two
distribution partners of CAE. There, Sevic claims it acquired all IP rights to an electric vehicle, the so-called CITELEC model (“CITELEC”), fully and exclusively from the French company SH2M Sarl (“SH2M”) under Mr. Pierre Millet. Sevic claims
these rights were acquired under a 2019 IP transfer agreement. According to Sevic, the METRO model (“METRO”) produced by Cenntro Electro Group Ltd. (“Cenntro”) and distributed by CAE derives directly from the CITELEC. The distribution of the METRO,
therefore, allegedly infringes on Sevic’s IP rights. In its action, Sevic relies on (Belgian) copyright law and unfair business practices. On February 2, 2023, the president of the commercial court of Brussels rendered a judgment, declaring i) the
claim against Cedar was inadmissible and ii) The main claim against CAE and LEIE was founded. According to the president’s opinion the CITELEC-model can enjoy copyright protection and determined it was sufficiently proven that Sevic acquired the
copyrights of the CITELEC-model. The president then concluded that the distribution of the METRO-model in Belgium constituted a violation of article XI. 165 §1 of the Belgian Code of Economic Law and thereby ordered the cessation of the
distribution of the METRO-model, a penalty in the form of a fine of EUR20,000.00 per sold vehicle in Belgium and EUR5,000.00 for each other infringement in Belgium after the judgement was served with a maximum fine of EUR500,000.00 for LEIE and EUR1,000,000.00 fine for CAE. Because CAE
has not sold any METRO-models in Belgium, the Company believes the judgement is incorrect and intends to appeal it, however, the Company has accrued the related liability according to the judgement made.
On July 22, 2022, Xiongjian Chen (the “Plaintiff”) filed a complaint against Cenntro Electric Group Limited (“CENN”), Cenntro Automotive Group Limited (“CAG”), Cenntro
Enterprise Limited (“CEL”) and Peter Z. Wang (“Wang,” together with CENN, CAG and CEL, the “Defendants”) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. The complaint alleges eleven causes of action sounding in contract and tort against the Defendants, all pertaining to stock options issued to Mr. Chen pursuant to his employment as Chief Operating
Officer of CAG. With respect to the four contract claims, Plaintiff alleges breach of contract claims pertaining to an employment
agreement between Plaintiff and CAG and a purported letter agreement between Plaintiff and CEL. With respect to the seven tort claims,
Plaintiff alleges claims regarding purported misrepresentations and promises made concerning the treatment of Plaintiff’s stock options upon a corporate transaction, including claims for tortious interference, fraud, promissory estoppel, negligent
misrepresentation, unjust enrichment and conversion. The complaint seeks, among other things, money damages (including compensatory and consequential damages) in the amount of $19 million, plus interest, attorneys’ fees and expenses. Defendants moved to dismiss the complaint against all Defendants for failure to state a claim and for lack of personal jurisdiction
over defendants CAG and CEL. On April 30, 2023, the District Court dismissed the claims against CAG and CEL for lack of personal jurisdiction. In addition, the District Court dismissed all the claims against Wang and CENN without prejudice and
permitted the Plaintiff to amend his complaint within 30 days to address the deficiencies in his claims against Wang and CENN. On May
28, 2023, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint. On July 20, 2023 the Defendants filed a motion seeking the dismissal of that amended complaint.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Basis of presentation |
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Certain information and disclosures, which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to provide a fair presentation. The interim financial information should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or any
future periods.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of estimates |
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that
affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include provision for doubtful accounts, lower of cost and net
realizable value of inventories, impairment losses for long-lived assets and investments, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and fair value measurement for share-based compensation expense, convertible promissory notes and warrants.
Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revenue recognition |
The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange
for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of a contract with the customer; (ii) determination of
performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company generates revenue primarily through sales of light-duty ECVs, sales of ECV parts, and sales of off-road electric vehicles. Revenue is recognized at a point
in time once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Revenue is recognized net of return allowance and any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Significant judgement is required to estimate return allowances. The Company reasonably estimate the possibility of return based on the historical experience, changes in judgments on these assumptions and estimates could materially impact the
amount of net revenues recognized.
Shipping and handling costs for product shipments occur prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods are accounted for as fulfilment costs rather than separate
performance obligations and recorded as sales and marketing expenses.
The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenues by product line for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
The Company’s revenues are derived from Europe, Asia and America. The following table sets forth disaggregation of revenue by customer location.
Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition was once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Accounts receivable represent revenue
recognized for the amounts invoiced and/or prior to invoicing when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and has an unconditional right to the payment.
Contractual liabilities primarily represent the Company’s obligation to transfer additional goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received
consideration. The consideration received remains a contractual liability until goods or services have been provided to the customer. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $479,499 and $1,038,005 revenue that was included in contractual
liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
