GOING
CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES
|
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue
as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business
for the foreseeable future.
As
reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of
$7,872,792 and negative working capital of $9,315,789 as of June 30, 2019, and incurred a net loss of $1,425,693 for the six months
ended June 30, 2019. In addition, the Company continues to generate operating losses and has a cash outflow from its operations.
Management believes that these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
for the next twelve months.
The
continuation of the Company as a going concern through the next twelve months is dependent upon the continued financial support
from its stockholders or external financing. Management believes the existing stockholders will provide the additional cash to
meet with the Company’s obligations as they become due and to further implement management’s business plan to extend
its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy
to increase sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be neither any assurance to that effect, nor
any assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain its operations.
These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification
of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management
believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity
for the Company to continue as a going concern.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
|
●
|
Basis
of presentation and consolidation
|
These
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflected the activities of NFEC and its subsidiaries.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated
financial information as of June 30, 2019 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote
disclosures, which are normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have
been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Form
10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, previously filed with the SEC on September 6, 2019.
In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement
of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2019 and its unaudited condensed consolidated
results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and its unaudited condensed consolidated cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, as applicable, have been made. The interim results of operations are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the fiscal year or any future periods.
In
preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.
Certain
prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

|
Cash
and cash equivalents
|
Cash
and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in readily available checking and saving accounts. Cash equivalents consist of
highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and that mature within three months or less from the date of purchase.
The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.
Cash
and cash equivalents that are restricted as to withdrawal or use under the terms of certain contractual agreements are recorded
in restricted cash account on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s
restricted cash balance is related to a contract performance guarantee bond. The balance of restricted cash was $179,814 and $179,496
as of June 30, 2019 and December 2018, respectively.
|
●
|
Accounts
receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
|
Accounts
receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not bear interest and are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30
to 90 days from shipment. Credit is granted based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, the customer credit-worthiness
and their payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due.
Past due balances over 90 days are reviewed individually for collectability. At the end of each period, the Company specifically
evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the
progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company will consider the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated
losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For those receivables that are past due or not
being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking
legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have
been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure
related to its customers. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $11,486,827 and $11,327,271,
respectively.
|
●
|
Retention
receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
|
Under the terms of its contracts with customers,
the Company offers its customers a free product warranty on a case-by-case basis, depending upon the type of customer and the
nature and size of the infrastructure project. The warranty is usually for 12 months. Under such arrangements, a portion of the
project contract value, usually 5-10%, is withheld by the customer as a retention. The Company records this portion of the project
contract value as retention receivable. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts relating
to retentions receivable was $938,940 and $942,376, respectively.
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market value (net realizable value), cost being determined on a weighted average method. Costs
include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. The Company reviews historical sales activity quarterly to determine
excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.
The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been
any write-offs.
|
●
|
Property,
plant and equipment
|
Property,
plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is
calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational
and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
|

depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

All
lands in the PRC are owned by the PRC government. Under applicable law, the PRC government may sell the right to use the land
for a specified period of time. Thus, the Company’s land purchases in the PRC are considered to be leaseholds and are stated
at cost less accumulated amortization and any recognized impairment loss. Amortization is provided over the term of the land use
right agreement on a straight-line basis, which is 50 years and will expire in 2059.
|
●
|
Construction
in progress
|
Construction
in progress is stated at cost, which includes acquisition of land use rights, cost of construction, purchases of plant and equipment
and other direct costs attributable to the construction of a manufacturing facility in Yinzhou District Industrial Park, Tieling
City, Liaoning Province, PRC. Construction in progress is not depreciated until such time as the assets are completed and put
into operational use. No capitalized interest is incurred during the period of construction.
|
●
|
Impairment
of long-lived assets
|
In
accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived
assets such as property, plant and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and
used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected
to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the
amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2019, the Company reported an impairment loss of $25,071 and $25,071 from its incomplete construction project, respectively.
There was no impairment loss reported during the comparable periods in 2018.
On
January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method applied
to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018
are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with
the Company’s historic accounting under ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. The adoption had no material impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements and there was no adjustment to the beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018.
Under
ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods and services is transferred to the Company’s customers,
in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services,
net of value-added tax. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
|
ü
|
Identify
the contract with a customer;
|
|
ü
|
Identify
the performance obligations in the contract;
|
|
ü
|
Determine
the transaction price;
|
|
ü
|
Allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
|
|
ü
|
Recognize
revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
|
Cost
of revenue consists primarily of material costs, direct labor, depreciation, and manufacturing overhead, which are directly attributable
to the manufacture of products and the rendering of services or projects. Shipping and handling costs, associated with the distribution
of finished products to customers, are borne by the customers.
ASC
Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income,
its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner
sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’
equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included
in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
NF ENERGY SAVING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Income
taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”).
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in
tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC
740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements
uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized
in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.
Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant
facts.
For
the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions.
As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The
Company conducts the majority of its businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business
activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by a foreign tax authority.
Under the terms of its contracts with customers,
the Company offers its customers a free product warranty on a case-by-case basis, depending upon the type of customer and the
nature and size of the infrastructure project. The warranty is usually for 12 months. Under such arrangements, a portion of the
project contract value, usually 5-10%, is withheld by the customer as a retention. The Company records this portion of the project
contract value as retention receivable. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company reported retentions receivable,
net of $7,022 and $65,529, respectively.
The
Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income
per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the
number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued
and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

Foreign
currencies translation
|
Transactions
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting
exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.
The
reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar (“US$”). The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC
maintain their books and records in their local currency, the Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is the functional currency
as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.
In
general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated
into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate
on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses
resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated
other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.

to retirement plans (which are defined contribution plans) are charged to general and administrative expenses in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operation as the related employee service is provided.
Parties,
which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly,
to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions.
Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
ASC
Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on
a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business
segments and major customers in financial statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company operates
in one reportable operating segment, primarily in the PRC.

|
Fair
value of financial instruments
|
The
carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding short-term bank borrowing and convertible promissory notes):
cash and cash equivalents, accounts and retention receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax
payable, amount due to a related party, other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the
short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Management
believes, based on the current market prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of its obligation
under finance lease and short-term bank borrowing approximate the carrying amount.
The
Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC
820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier
fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
|
●
|
Level
1: Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded
in active markets;
|
|
●
|
Level
2: Inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and
model-based valuation techniques (e.g. Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model) for which
all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable
market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Where applicable,
these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value
using market-based observable inputs; and
|
|
●
|
Level
3: Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates
of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option
pricing models and discounted cash flow models.
|
NF ENERGY SAVING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Fair
value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined
with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
|
●
|
Recent
accounting pronouncements
|
In
January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other
(Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 removes Step 2 of the
goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount
by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This standard,
which will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, is required to be applied prospectively.
Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”),
which supersedes ASC 505-50 and expands the scope of ASC 718 to include all share-based payments arrangements related to the acquisition
of goods and services from both employees and nonemployees. For public companies, the amendments are effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted,
but no earlier than a company’s adoption date of ASC 606. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2018-07
will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), which
modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including, among other changes,
the consideration of costs and benefits when evaluating disclosure requirements. For public companies, the amendments are effective
for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption
is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on the Company’s
financial statements and footnote disclosures.
Other
accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption
until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
The
majority of the Company’s sales are on open credit terms and in accordance with terms specified in the contracts governing
the relevant transactions. The Company evaluates the need of an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified
amounts that management believes to be uncollectible. If actual collections experience changes, revisions to the allowance may
be required. Based upon the aforementioned criteria, the Company incurred a bad debt expense of $138,784 and $1,454,386 for its
doubtful accounts in accounts receivable for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $155,128 and $1,454,386
for its doubtful accounts in accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Financial
instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The Company believes the concentration
of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short
collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance
for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
As
the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially
independent of changes in market interest rates.
The
Company’s interest-rate risk arises from short-term bank borrowings. The Company manages interest rate risk by varying the
issuance and maturity dates of variable rate debt, limiting the amount of variable rate debt, and continually monitoring the effects
of market changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, short-term bank borrowings were at fixed rates.
The
reporting currency of the Company is US$, to date the majority of the revenues and costs are denominated in RMB and a significant
portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as
its revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB. If RMB depreciates
against US$, the value of RMB revenues and assets as expressed in US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not
hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to substantial market risk.
