NOTE 2 –  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

These  interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation .

 

Certain  information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2019 .

 

Going Concern

 

The  Company currently has limited operations. Currently, the Company’s operations are focused on: (i) real estate property ownership and operation in the United States; (ii) providing outsourced, customized international healthcare services to the rapidly changing health care industry primarily focused in the People’s Republic of China; (iii) performing  development services for hospitals and other customers and sales of developed products to hospitals and other customers . The Company is also pursuing the provision of healthcare services in the United States. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business .

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $20,054,816 at June 30, 2019, and has incurred recurring net loss and negative cash flow from operating activities of $8,943,752 and $3,920,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company has a limited operating history and its continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of providing medical consulting services to its only four clients who are related parties and generating rental revenue from its income-producing real estate property in New Jersey and performing development services for hospitals and other customers and sales of developed products to hospitals and other customers ; hence generating revenues, and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. In addition, the current cash balance cannot be projected to cover the operating expenses for the next twelve months from the release date of this report. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenues. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenues, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity or debt instruments to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 –  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for obsolete inventory, the useful life of property and equipment and investment in real estate and intangible assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and valuation of stock-based compensation .

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements 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-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date .

 

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities 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-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information .

 

The carrying amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, tenants receivable, security deposit, inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other payables, accrued liabilities and other payables – related parties, deferred rental income, loan payable, interest payable, interest payable – related party, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) and other taxes payable, tenants’ security deposit, and due to related party, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments .

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Currently, a portion of the Company’s operations are carried out in PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s operations in PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

NOTE 3 –  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, trade accounts receivable and tenants receivable. A portion of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC, and none of these deposits are covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales which is to the customer whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable and tenants receivable is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.

 

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:

 

Country:   June 30, 2019     December 31, 2018  
United States   $ 2,761,051       81.2 %   $ 1,035,802       46.0 %
China     640,253       18.8 %     1,216,485       54.0 %
Total cash   $ 3,401,304       100.0 %   $ 2,252,287       100.0 %

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts 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 balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, a customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.

 

Management believes that the accounts receivable are fully collectable. Therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts is deemed to be required on its accounts receivable at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company historically has not experienced uncollectible accounts from customers granted with credit sales.

 

Tenants Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Tenants receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Tenants receivable balance consist of base rents, tenant reimbursements and receivables arising from straight-lining of rents primarily represent amounts accrued and unpaid from tenants in accordance with the terms of the respective leases, subject to the Company’s revenue recognition policy. An allowance for the uncollectible portion of tenant receivable is determined based upon an analysis of the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in Freehold, New Jersey in which the property is located.

 

Management believes that the tenants receivable are fully collectable. Therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts is deemed to be required on its tenants receivable at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. A reserve is established when management determines that certain inventory may not be saleable. If inventory costs exceed expected market value due to obsolescence or quantities in excess of expected demand, the Company will record a write down in inventory for the difference between the cost and the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. The reserve and write down are recorded based on estimates. The Company determined that certain raw material and finished goods were impaired and has written off a total of $10,074 in the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to none in the six months ended June 30, 2018. 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the period of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Investment in Real Estate and Depreciation

 

Investment in real estate is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and consists of building and improvement. The Company depreciates real estate building and improvement on a straight-line basis over estimated useful life. Expenditures for ordinary repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditure for improvements, renovations, and replacements of real estate asset is capitalized and depreciated over its estimated useful life if the expenditure qualifies as betterment. Real estate depreciation expense was $39,962 and $31,806 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively . Real estate depreciation expense was $79,923 and $63,611 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively .

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of patents and other technologies. Patents and other technologies are being amortized on a straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years.

 

Investment in Unconsolidated Company – Epicon Biotech Co., Ltd.

 

The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in, and earning or loss of, company that it does not control but over which it does exert significant influence. The Company considers whether the fair value of its equity method investment has declined below its carrying value whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that recorded value may not be recoverable. If the Company considers any decline to be other than temporary (based on various factors, including historical financial results and the overall health of the investee), then a write-down would be recorded to estimated fair value. See Note 9 for discussion of equity method investment.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 as there was no impairment indicator noted as of the filing date of this report.

 

Deferred Rental Income

 

Deferred rental income represents rental income collected but not earned as of the reporting date. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, deferred rental income totaled $13,786 and $14,136, respectively.

 

Value Added Tax

 

Avalon Shanghai and Beijing GenExosome are subject to a value added tax (“VAT”) for providing medical related consulting services and performing development services and sales of developed products. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rates to the invoiced amount of medical related consulting services provided and the invoiced amount of development services provided and sales of developed products (output VAT) less VAT paid on purchases made with the relevant supporting invoices (input VAT). The Company reports revenue net of PRC’s value added tax for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company began recognizing revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective transition method. The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit on January 1, 2018. The core principle of this new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

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

 

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

  

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Types of revenue:

 

Rental revenue from leasing commercial property under operating leases with terms of generally three years or more.

 

Service fees under consulting agreements with related parties to provide medical related consulting services to its clients. The Company is paid for its services by its clients pursuant to the terms of the written consulting agreements. Each contract calls for a fixed payment.

 

Service fees under agreements to perform development services for hospitals and other customers. The Company does not perform contracts that are contingent upon successful results.

 

Sales of developed products to hospitals and other customers.

NOTE 3 –  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Revenue recognition criteria:

 

The Company recognizes rental revenue from its commercial leases on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease including rent holidays, if any. Straight-line rent receivable consists of the difference between the tenants’ rents calculated on a straight-line basis from the date of lease commencement over the remaining terms of the related leases and the tenants’ actual rents due under the lease agreements and is included in tenants receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenues associated with operating expense recoveries are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred.

 

The Company recognizes revenue by providing medical related consulting services under written service contracts with its customers. Revenue related to its service offerings is recognized as the services are performed.

 

Revenue from development services performed under written contracts is recognized as services are provided.

 

Revenue from sales of developed items to hospitals and other customers is recognized when items are shipped to customers and titles are transferred.

 

The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers.

 

Office Lease

 

When  a lease contains “rent holidays”, the Company records rental expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and the difference between the average rental amount charged to expense and the amount payable under the lease is recorded as prepaid expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company begins recording rent expense on the lease possession date .

 

Real Property Operating Expenses

 

Real property operating expenses consist of property management fees, property insurance, real estate taxes, depreciation, repairs and maintenance fees, utilities and other expenses related to the Company’s rental properties.

 

Medical Related Consulting Services Costs

 

Costs of medical related consulting services includes the cost of internal labor and related benefits, travel expenses related to consulting services, subcontractor costs, other related consulting costs, and other overhead costs. Subcontractor costs were costs related to medical related consulting services incurred by our subcontractor, such as medical professional’s compensation and travel costs.

 

Development Services and Sales of Developed Products Costs

 

Costs of development services and sales of developed items includes inventory costs, materials and supplies costs, depreciation, internal labor and related benefits, other overhead costs and shipping and handling costs incurred.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in cost of sales. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, shipping and handling costs amounted to $0 and $0, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, shipping and handling costs amounted to $0 and $25, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

Expenditures for research and product development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expense in the amount of $949,711 and $263 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company incurred research and development expense in the amount of $1,102,171 and $263 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Advertising Costs

 

All costs related to advertising are expensed as incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, advertising costs amounted to $221,222 and $465,822, respectively. We did not incur any advertising expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees and non-employees including grants of stock options, to be recognized as expense in the statements of operations based on their grant date fair values. The Company estimates the grant date fair value of each option award using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the expected life of the option, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the common stock.

 

The Company periodically issues common stock, warrants and common stock options to consultants for various services. Costs of these transactions are measured at the fair value of the service received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset/liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Tax year that remains subject to examination is the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to significant uncertain income tax positions in other expense. However, no such interest and penalties were recorded as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

In December 2017, the United States Government passed new tax legislation that, among other provisions, lowered the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. In addition to applying the new lower corporate tax rate in 2018 and thereafter to any taxable income the Company may have, the legislation affects the way the Company can use and carryforward net operating losses previously accumulated and results in a revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet. Given that current deferred tax assets are offset by a full valuation allowance, these changes will have no net impact on the balance sheet. However, when the Company becomes profitable, the Company will receive a reduced benefit from such deferred tax assets.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company, AHS, Avalon RT 9, GenExosome, and Avactis, is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of Avalon Shanghai and Beijing GenExosome, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the subsidiaries whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income/loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

AVALON GLOBOCARE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTE 3 –  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

All of the Company’s revenue transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating subsidiaries. The Company does not enter into any material transaction in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.

 

Asset and liability accounts at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were translated at 6,8668 RMB to $1.00 and at 6.8785 RMB to $1.00, respectively, which were the exchange rates on the balance sheet dates. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to the statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 6.7863 RMB and 6.3701 RMB to $1.00, respectively. Cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate.

  

Comprehensive Loss

 

Comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss and all changes to the statements of equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. For the Company, comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 consisted of net loss and unrealized gain from foreign currency translation adjustment.

 

Per Share Data

 

ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.

 

Basic net loss per share are computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of the common shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method). Common stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

 

    Three Months Ended     Six Months Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2019     2018     2019     2018  
Net loss available to Avalon GloboCare Corp. common shareholders for basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock   $ ( 4,357,224 )   $ (1,294,394 )   $ ( 8,763,040 )   $ (2,775,973 )
Weighted average common stock outstanding - basic and diluted     75,183,354       71,979,678       74,437,336       71,122,356  
Net loss per common share attributable to Avalon GloboCare Corp. common shareholders - basic and diluted   $ (0.06 )   $ (0.02 )   $ (0.12 )   $ (0.04 )

 

The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:

The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) and president of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. The Company has determined that it has three reportable business segments: real property operating segment, medical related consulting services segment, and development services and sales of developed products segment. These reportable segments offer different types of services and products, have different types of revenue, and are managed separately as each requires different operating strategies and management expertise.

 

Related Parties

 

Parties  are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all significant related party transactions .

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases”, (“ASU 842”) which amended the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 842 is effective for public companies during interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, which permits entities to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability on the date of adoption, with no requirement to recast comparative periods .

NOTE 3 –  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

The Company adopted ASU 842 effective January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method of recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit on January 1, 2019. Therefore, comparative financial information was not adjusted and continues to be reported under the prior lease accounting guidance in ASU 840. The Company elected the transition relief package of practical expedients, and as a result, the Company did not assess 1) whether existing or expired contracts contain embedded leases, 2) lease classification for any existing or expired leases, and 3) whether lease origination costs qualified as initial direct costs. The Company elected the short-term lease practical expedient by establishing an accounting policy to exclude leases with a term of 12 months or less, as well as the land easement practical expedient for maintaining its current accounting policy for existing or expired land easements .

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07,  Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting,  to expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees and supersedes the guidance in Subtopic 505-50,  Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees . Under ASU 2018-07, equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are measured at the grant date fair value on the grant date. The probability of satisfying performance conditions must be considered for equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards with such conditions. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,  Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . The objective of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements by removing, modifying, and adding certain fair value disclosure requirements to facilitate clear communication of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted upon issuance of this ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

NOTE 14 –  DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

On April 25, 2019, the Company issued 1,714,288 five-year warrants to several third party institutional investors in a registered direct offering (see Note 15). The warrants include the fundamental transaction provisions and the exercise price of the warrants is protected against down-round financing throughout the term of the warrants. Upon evaluation, the warrants meet the definition of derivative liabilities under FASB ASC 815, as the Company cannot avoid a net cash settlement under certain circumstances. Accordingly, the fair value of the warrants was classified as derivative liabilities of $3,517,241 on the issuance date, April 25, 2019. The estimated fair value of the warrants were computed at issuance using Black-Scholes option-pricing model, with the following assumptions: stock price of $2.82, volatility of 100.87%, risk-free rate of 2.33%, annual dividend yield of 0% and expected life of 5 years.

 

The estimated fair value of the outstanding warrant as derivative liabilities was $3,055,748 at June 30, 2019. The estimated fair value of the warrants were computed as of June 30, 2019 using Black-Scholes option-pricing model, with the following assumptions: stock price of $2.60, volatility of 97.69%, risk-free rate of 1.76%, annual dividend yield of 0% and expected life of 4.82 years.

 

Increases or decreases in fair value of the derivative liabilities are included as a component of total other income / expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the respective period. The changes to the derivative liabilities for the warrants resulted in a decrease of $461,493 in the derivative liabilities and the corresponding increase in other income as a gain for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors, Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in our Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2019. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements .

 

Unless  otherwise indicated, references to the “Company”, “us” or “we” refer to Avalon GloboCare Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries .

 

Overview

 

Avalon GloboCare Corp. is a clinical-stage, leading CellTech bio-developer dedicated to advancing and empowering innovative, transformative immune effector cell therapy and exosome technology. Avalon also provides strategic advisory and outsourcing services to facilitate and enhance its clients’ growth, development, as well as competitiveness in healthcare and CellTech industry markets.

 

Avalon’s subsidiary and joint venture structure contribute to investor flexibility and R&D focus, enabling Avalon to establish our leading role in the fields of immune effector cell therapy (including CAR-T and CAR-NK), exosome-based regenerative therapeutics (our ACTEX TM platform), as well as “liquid biopsy” diagnostics.

 

Avalon achieves and fosters seamless integration of unique verticals to bridge and accelerate innovative research, bio-process development, clinical programs and product commercialization.

Avalon’s upstream innovative research includes:

 

- Co-development of Avalon Clinical-grade Tissue-specific Exosome (“ACTEX TM ”) with Weill Cornell Medicine

 

- Novel therapeutic and diagnostic targets development utilizing QTY-code protein design technology with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

 

- Co-development of next generation, transposon-based, multi-target CAR-T, CAR-NK and other immune effector cell therapeutic modalities with Arbele Corp.

 

Avalon’s midstream bio-processing and bio-production facility is located in Nanjing, China with state-of-the-art, automated GMP and QC/QA infrastructure for standardized bio-manufacturing of clinical-grade cellular products involved in our clinical programs in immune effector cell therapy, regenerative therapeutics, as well as bio-banking.

 

Avalon’s downstream medical team and facility consists of top-rated affiliated hospital network and experts specialized in hematology, oncology, cellular immunotherapy, hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell transplant, as well as regenerative therapeutics. Our major clinical programs include:

 

AVA-001: Avalon has initiated its first-in-human clinical trial of CD19 CAR-T candidate, AVA-001 in August 2019 at the Hebei Yanda Lu Daopei Hospital and Beijing Lu Daopei Hospital in China (the world’s single largest CAR-T treatment network with over 600 patients being treated with CAR-T) for the indication of relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. The AVA-001 candidate is characterized by the utilization of 4-1BB (CD137) co-stimulatory signaling pathway, conferring a strong anti-cancer activity during pre-clinical study. It also features a shorter bio-manufacturing time which leads to advantage of prompt treatment to patients with these dreadful hematologic malignancies. Avalon plans to recruit 20 patients (under registered clinical trial NCT03952523) for safety and efficacy studies.

 

AVA-101: Avalon’s transposon-based, multi-targeted CAR-T candidate, AVA-101 (co-developed with Arbele Corp.) will enter pre-clinical process development and validation phase during Q3 2019 as scheduled. AVA-101 features non-viral, transposon-engineered CAR-T with multiple anti-cancer targets, as well as possessing molecular safety-switch mechanism to minimize the side effects, such as cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, often associated with conventional CAR-T cellular therapy. Avalon anticipates this next generation of potentially more effective and safer CAR-T candidate will proceed to first-in-human clinical study in later part of 2020.

 

32

 

 

AVA-202: Avalon has recently completed the standardized bio-production process of tissue-specific, clinical-grade exosomes, a co-development endeavor with Weill Cornell Medicine with focus on angiogenic exosomes derived from endothelial cells which promote blood vessel formation and wound healing. Avalon is further developing this technology platform into a therapeutic candidate, AVA-202, and plan to initiate international multi-centered clinical studies in unmet medical areas of vascular diseases and wound healing, including treatment of diabetic foot ulcer.

 

The commercialization phase of Avalon’s ACTEX TM -based product development is underway to enter the markets of skin care, scar removal, and hair growth through in-house development and strategic partnership.

 

In the period ending June 30, 2019 we generated revenue by selling exosome isolation systems in China through our joint venture GenExosome Technologies, Inc. In addition, we provide medical related consulting services in advanced areas of immunotherapy and second opinion/referral services through our wholly-owned subsidiary Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd., or Avalon Shanghai. We also own and operate rental commercial real property in New Jersey, where we are headquartered. Recent feedback received from our research partners is that our exosome isolation system does not produce consistent results and does not deliver high exosome yields and concentrations. It is unclear if this is a result of incorrect use of the system or a flaw in the underlying system. As a result, we have discontinued sales of these isolation systems until we complete our internal assessment and determine if the system is viable for broad commercial use.

 

On May 29, 2018, Avalon Shanghai entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Jiangsu Unicorn Biological Technology Co., Ltd., or Unicorn, pursuant to which a company named Epicon Biotech Co., Ltd. (“Epicon”) was formed on August 14, 2018. Epicon is owned 60% by Unicorn and 40% by Avalon Shanghai. Within two years of execution of the Joint Venture Agreement, Unicorn shall invest cash into Epicon in an amount not less than RMB 8,000,000 (approximately $1.2 million) and the premises of the laboratories of Nanjing Hospital of Chinese Medicine for exclusive use by Epicon, and Avalon Shanghai shall invest cash into Epicon in an amount not less than RMB 10,000,000 (approximately $1.5 million). The board of directors of Epicon shall consist of five members with Unicorn appointing three members and Avalon Shanghai appointing two members. Epicon will be focused on cell preparation, third party testing, biological sample repository for commercial and scientific research purposes and the clinical transformation of scientific achievements. As of the date hereof, Unicorn has invested the premises of the laboratories of Nanjing Hospital of Chinese Medicine and Avalon Shanghai has contributed RMB 3,000,000 (approximately $0.4 million). Epicon is focused on cell preparation, third party testing, biological sample repository for commercial and scientific research purposes and the clinical transformation of scientific achievements. 

 

On July 18, 2018, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Avactis Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation, which will be focused on accelerating commercial activities related to Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T technologies. The subsidiary is designed to integrate and optimize our global scientific and clinical resources to further advance the use of CAR-T to treat certain cancers.

 

On July 30, 2018, the Company signed a Letter of Intent with Arbele Limited, a Hong Kong company (“Arbele”) for a proposed strategic partnership agreement.

The value of the Renminbi (“RMB”), the main currency used in China, fluctuates and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. The conversion of RMB into foreign currencies such as the U.S. dollar have generally been based on rates set by the People’s Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day’s interbank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets.

 

Going Concern

 

We have a limited operating history and our continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of providing medical consulting services to our only four clients who are related parties and generating rental revenue from our income-producing real estate property in New Jersey and performing development services for hospitals and other customers and sales of developed products to hospitals and other customers; hence generating revenues, and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. We had an accumulated deficit of $20,054,816 at June 30, 2019, and incurred recurring net loss and negative cash flows from operating activities of $8,943,752 and $3,920,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. In addition, the current cash balance cannot be projected to cover the operating expenses for the next twelve months from the release date of this report. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to generate significant revenues or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.

 

34

 

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to carry out our business plan, achieve profitable operations, obtain additional working capital funds from our significant shareholders, and or through debt and equity financings. However, there can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to us on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.

 

Currently, the Company is planning to either borrow funds or raise additional capital through equity or debt financings. However, we cannot be certain that such capital (from our stockholders or third parties) will be available to us or whether such capital will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.   Any such financing likely would be dilutive to existing stockholders and could result in significant financial operating covenants that would negatively impact our business. If we are unable to raise sufficient additional capital on acceptable terms, we will have insufficient funds to operate our business or pursue our planned growth.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for obsolete inventory, the useful life of property and equipment and investment in real estate and intangible assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and valuation of stock-based compensation.

 

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, we began recognizing revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective transition method. The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to our consolidated financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit on January 1, 2018. The core principle of this new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

35

 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Types of revenue:

 

Rental revenue from leasing commercial property under operating leases with terms of generally three years or more.

 

Service fees under consulting agreements with related parties to provide medical related consulting services to our clients. We are paid for our services by our clients pursuant to the terms of the written consulting agreements. Each contract calls for a fixed payment.

 

Service fees under agreements to perform development services for hospitals and other customers. We do not perform contracts that are contingent upon successful results.

 

Sales of developed products to hospitals and other customers.

  

Revenue recognition criteria:

 

We recognize rental revenue from our commercial leases on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease including rent holidays, if any. Straight-line rent receivable consists of the difference between the tenants’ rents calculated on a straight-line basis from the date of lease commencement over the remaining terms of the related leases and the tenants’ actual rents due under the lease agreements and is included in tenants receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenues associated with operating expense recoveries are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred.

 

We recognize revenue by providing medical related consulting services under written service contracts with our customers. Revenue related to our service offerings is recognized as the services are performed.

 

Revenue from development services performed under written contracts is recognized as services are provided.

 

Revenue from sales of developed items to hospitals and other customers is recognized when items are shipped to customers and titles are transferred.

 

We do not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to our customers.

 

Income Taxes

 

We are governed by the income tax laws of China and the United States. Income taxes are accounted for pursuant to ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. The charge for taxes is based on the results for the period as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

 

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probably that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

 

36

 

 

Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is changed to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they related to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and we intend to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

  

Non-controlling Interest

The net loss attributable to Avalon GloboCare Corp. common shareholders was $4,357,224 or $(0.06) per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared with $1,294,394, or $(0.02) per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ended June 30, 2018, a change of $3,062,830 or 236.6%.

 

The net loss attributable to Avalon GloboCare Corp. common shareholders was $8,763,040 or $(0.12) per share (basic and diluted) for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared with $2,775,973, or $(0.04) per share (basic and diluted) for the six months ended June 30, 2018, a change of $5,987,067 or 215.7%.

 

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment

 

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our parent company, AHS, Avalon (BVI) Ltd. (dormant, is in process of being dissolved), Avalon RT 9, GenExosome, and Avactis is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of Avalon Shanghai and Beijing GenExosome, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The financial statements of our subsidiaries whose functional currency is the RMB are translated to U.S. dollars using period end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, average rate of exchange for revenues, costs, and expenses and cash flows, and at historical exchange rates for equity. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the results of operations. As a result of foreign currency translations, which are a non-cash adjustment, we reported a foreign currency translation loss of $34,103 and a foreign currency translation loss of $96,207 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As a result of foreign currency translations, which are a non-cash adjustment, we reported a foreign currency translation gain of $9,379 and a foreign currency translation loss of $43,369 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This non-cash gain had the effect of decreasing our reported comprehensive loss.

 

Comprehensive Loss

 

As a result of our foreign currency translation adjustment, we had comprehensive loss of $4,472,926 and $1,440,022 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As a result of our foreign currency translation adjustment, we had comprehensive loss of $8,934,373 and $2,938,153 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had cash balance of approximately $3,400,000 and $2,252,000, respectively. These funds are kept in financial institutions located as follows:

 

Country:   June 30,
2019
    December 31,
2018
 
United States   $ 2,761,051       81.2 %   $ 1,035,802       46.0 %
China     640,253       18.8 %     1,216,485       54.0 %
Total cash   $ 3,401,304       100.0 %   $ 2,252,287       100.0 %

 

Under applicable PRC regulations, foreign invested enterprises, or FIEs, in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until the cumulative amount of such reserves reach 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends.

 

In addition, a portion of our businesses and assets are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts. These currency exchange control procedures imposed by the PRC government authorities may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiary to transfer its net assets to the Parent Company through loans, advances or cash dividends.

 

The current PRC Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) Law and its implementing rules generally provide that a 10% withholding tax applies to China-sourced income derived by non-resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes unless the jurisdiction of incorporation of such enterprises’ shareholder has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement.

 

The following table sets forth a summary of changes in our working capital from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019:

 

                December 31, 2018 to
June 30, 2019
 
    June 30,
2019
    December 31, 2018     Change     Percentage Change  
Working capital:                                
Total current assets   $ 3,992,379     $ 3,625,432     $ 366,947       10.1 %
Total current liabilities     1,034,793       1,141,720       (106,927 )     (9.4 )%
Working capital   $ 2,957,586     $ 2,483,712     $ 473,874       19.1 %

 

Our working capital increased by $473,874 to working capital of $2,957,586 at June 30, 2019 from working capital of $2,483,712 at December 31, 2018. The increase in working capital was primarily attributable to an increase in cash of approximately $1,150,000, an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $91,000, a decrease in interest payable of approximately $75,000, a decrease in accrued liabilities and other payables of approximately $112,000, and a decrease in security deposit of approximately $100,000, offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses – related parties of approximately $34,000, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of approximately $726,000, and an increase in accounts payable of approximately $40,000.

 

Because the exchange rate conversion is different for the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of cash flows, the changes in assets and liabilities reflected on the consolidated statements of cash flows are not necessarily identical with the comparable changes reflected on the consolidated balance sheets.

Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018

 

The following summarizes the key components of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

 

    Six Months Ended
June 30,
2019
  Six Months Ended
June 30,
2018
Net cash used in operating activities   $ (3,920,258 )   $ (2,200,042 )
Net cash used in investing activities     (150,988 )     (197,953 )
Net cash provided by financing activities     5,103,704       3,034,143  
Effect of exchange rate on cash     116,559       (19,865 )
Net increase in cash   $ 1,149,017     $ 616,283  

  

Net cash flow used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $3,920,258, which primarily reflected our net loss of approximately $8,943,752, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily consisting of a decrease in change in fair value of warrant derivative liability of approximately $460,000,a decrease in accrued labilities and other payables of approximately $473,000, a decrease in interest payable of approximately $75,000, and a decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $92,000 offset by an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of approximately $380,000, an increase in allocation of financing expense of approximately $526,000, an increase in security deposit of approximately $100,000,and the add-back of non-cash items consisting of depreciation and amortization of approximately $285,000, stock-based compensation expense of approximately $4,718,000, and loss on equity method investment of approximately $23,000.

 

Net cash flow used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $2,200,042, which primarily reflected our net loss of approximately $2,895,000, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily consisting of an increase in accounts receivable – related parties of approximately $151,000, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of approximately $154,000, an increase in security deposit of approximately $309,000 mainly due to the deposit made pursuant to a Joint Venture Agreement entered in May 2018, a decrease in interest payable of approximately $113,000, offset by an increase in accrued liabilities and other payables of approximately $177,000, and the add-back of non-cash items consisting of depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $248,000, and stock-based compensation expense of approximately $1,083,000

 

We expect our cash used in operating activities to increase due to the following:

 

the development and commercialization of exosome products;

 

an increase in professional staff and services including increased costs of being a public company; and

 

an increase in public relations and/or sales promotions for existing and/or new brands as we expand within existing markets or enter new markets.

 

Net cash flow used in investing activities was $150,988 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $197,953 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we made payment for purchase of property and equipment of approximately $140,000 and made payment for improvement of commercial real estate of approximately $11,000.  During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we made payment for purchase of property and equipment of approximately $10,000, made prepayment for purchase of long-term assets of approximately $23,000, and made payment for improvement of commercial real estate of approximately $165,000.

 

Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $5,103,704 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to net cash flow provided by financing activities of $3,034,143 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received proceeds from note payable – related party of $1,000,000, net proceeds from financing of approximately $5,104,000, offset by repayment of $1,000,000 made for loan payable.  During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received net proceeds from equity offering of approximately $5,057,000, offset by repayments made for loan of approximately $500,000, repurchase of common stock of approximately $523,000, and refund for refundable deposit in connection with Share Subscription Agreement of approximately $1,000,000.

 

Our capital requirements for the next twelve months primarily relate to working capital requirements, including salaries, fees related to third parties’ professional services, reduction of accrued liabilities, mergers, acquisitions and the development of business opportunities. These uses of cash will depend on numerous factors including our sales and other revenues, and our ability to control costs. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

 

an increase in working capital requirements to finance our current business;

 

repayment for outstanding loan;

 

the use of capital for mergers, acquisitions and the development of business opportunities;

 

addition of administrative personnel as the business grows; and

 

the cost of being a public company.

We will need to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will be insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations. Other than funds received from the sale of our equity and advances from our related parties, and cash resource generating from our operations, we presently have no other significant alternative source of working capital. We have used these funds to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations and grow our company. We will need to raise significant additional capital to fund our operations and to provide working capital for our ongoing operations and obligations. Therefore, our future operation is dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will be required to cease our operations. To date, we have not considered this alternative, nor do we view it as a likely occurrence.

 

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The following tables summarize our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2019, and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We presently do not have off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

 

A portion of our operations are in China. Thus, a portion of our revenues and operating results may be impacted by exchange rate fluctuations between RMB and US dollars. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we had unrealized foreign currency translation loss of approximately $34,000 and unrealized foreign currency translation loss of approximately $96,000, respectively, because of changes in the exchange rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we had unrealized foreign currency translation gain of approximately $9,400 and unrealized foreign currency translation loss of approximately $43,000, respectively, because of changes in the exchange rate.

 

Inflation

 

The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item .

  

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

In connection with the preparation of the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure .

 

Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of June 30, 2019 due to the significant deficiencies caused by the lack of segregation of duties resulting from our small size, which we previously reported in our Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2018 (“2018 10-K”), has not yet been remediated.

 

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
