AIXN AiXin Life International Inc (QB)

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). The functional currency of AiXinZhonghong, Aixin Shangyan Hotel, Aixintang Pharmacies, and Runcangsheng is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are translated from RMB and presented in U.S. dollars (“USD”).

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, AiXin HK, AiXinZhonghong, Aixin Shangyan Hotel, Aixintang Pharmacies, and Runcangsheng. Intercompany transactions and accounts were eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business are dependent on, among other things, the Company’s ability to operate profitably, to generate cash flows from operations, and to pursue financing arrangements to support its working capital requirements.

The Company suffered net losses of $546,186 and $438,156 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and $1,326,569 and $1,065,486 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and net cash outflow in operating activities of $548,130 and $219,874 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $18,546,961 as of September 30, 2024. These facts and conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. From January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased from $443,758 to $568,318 mainly due to an increase in cash inflow from financing activities.

Management believes that it has developed a liquidity plan, summarized below, that, if executed successfully, should provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due for a reasonable period of time, and allow the development of its core business. The plan includes:

● Gaining positive cash-inflow from operating activities through continuous cost reductions and the sales of higher margin products.

● Raising cash through loans from related parties and potential equity offerings.

While the Company’s management believes that the measures in its liquidity plan including those described above will be adequate to satisfy its liquidity requirements for the twelve months after the date that these financial statements are issued, there is no assurance that the liquidity plan will be successfully implemented. Failure to successfully implement the liquidity plan may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial position, and may adversely affect its ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or any other adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Global Uncertainties

The Company’s liquidity may be adversely impacted by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to future and current impacts of global events such as a widespread health crisis, the continuation of the war in the Ukraine or the conflict in Palestine, the outbreak of another conflict or the expansion of the conflict in Palestine to other countries, the ongoing tensions between the United States and China, the Russian Federation and certain countries in the Middle East, increases in inflation, and other risks detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

While the invasion of Ukraine, the conflict in Palestine and responses thereto have not interrupted the Company’s operations, these or future developments which disrupt the international financial markets could make it difficult to access debt and equity capital on attractive terms, if at all, and impact the Company’s ability to fund business activities, including proposed acquisitions.

Use of Estimates

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Significant estimates required by management, include the recoverability of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and the reserve for obsolete and slow-moving inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

The restricted cash was cash maintained in temporarily frozen bank accounts held by Aixintang Pharmacy and its branches by the court for a judgement against Aixintang Pharmacy (see Note 17 – litigation).

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s policy is to maintain an allowance for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the bad debt allowance was $89,935 and $80,640 respectively.

Inventories

Inventories mainly consist of health supplements, drugs, pharmaceutical and nutritional products, food and beverage, hotel supplies and consumables, and raw materials. Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or market, cost being determined on a moving weighted average method at the end of the month. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down inventories to market value, if lower. The Company recorded reversal of inventory reserve of $3,523 and provisions for inventory reserve of $8,558 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and impairment losses, if any. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the period benefited. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with 5% salvage value and estimated lives as follows:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, but at least annually.

Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by it. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no significant impairments of its long-lived assets.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment indicates that goodwill impairment is more likely than not, the Company performs a two-step impairment test. The Company tests goodwill for impairment under the two-step impairment test by first comparing the book value of net assets to the fair value of the reporting units. If the fair value is determined to be less than the book value or qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, a second step is performed to compute the amount of impairment as the difference between the estimated fair value of goodwill and the carrying value. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting units using discounted cash flows. Forecasts of future cash flows are based on our best estimate of future net sales and operating expenses, based primarily on expected category expansion, pricing, market segment share, and general economic conditions. The Company recorded goodwill in the amount of $0 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates, applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, which prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures.

Under ASC Topic 740, when tax returns are filed, it is likely that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statement of income.

At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not take any uncertain positions that would necessitate recording a tax related liability.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from sale of goods under Topic 606 is recognized in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of the Company’s products and services to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

The Company’s revenue recognition policies for its various operating segments are as follows:

Direct Sales

The Company’s revenue from direct sales of products is recognized when goods are delivered to the customer and no other obligation exists. The Company does not provide unconditional return or other concessions to customers. The Company’s sales policy allows for the return of unopened products for cash after deducting certain service and transaction fees. As an alternative to the product return option, customers have the option of asking for an exchange for products with the same value.

Sales revenue of AiXin Zhonghong represents the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products sold in China are subject to the PRC VAT of 13% since April 1, 2019. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials purchased in China. The Company records VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government.

Hotel

Hotel revenues are primarily derived from the rental of rooms, food and beverage sales and other ancillary goods and services, including but not limited to souvenir, parking and conference reservation. Each of these products and services represents a distinct performance obligation and, in exchange for these services, the Company receives fixed amounts based on published rates or negotiated contracts. Payment is due in full at the time when the services are rendered or the goods are provided. Room rental revenue is recognized on a daily basis when rooms are occupied. Food and beverage revenue and other goods and services revenue are recognized when they have been delivered or rendered to the guests as the respective performance obligations are satisfied. All of the hotel’s goods sold in China are subject to the PRC VAT of 6%. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials purchased in China.

Pharmacy

The Company’s retail drugstores (Aixintang Pharmacies) recognize revenue at the time the customer takes possession of the merchandise. For pharmacy sales, each prescription claim is its own arrangement with the customer and is a performance obligation. Aixintang Pharmacies generally receives payments from customers as it satisfies its performance obligations. The Company records a receivable when it has an unconditional right to receive payment and only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of VAT. Aixintang Pharmacies’ products sold in China are subject to the PRC VAT of 0%-13% as certain pharmacies qualify as small businesses.

Manufacture and Sale

The Company’s subsidiary Runcangsheng recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped as this satisfies its performance obligation. The Company records a receivable for its sales when it has an unconditional right to receive payment and only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). All of Runcangsheng’s products sold in China are subject to the PRC VAT of 13% unless it is a qualified small business subject to exemption.

Unearned Revenue

The Company’s unearned revenue primarily consists of advances received from customers for the purchase of products prior to the delivery of goods, and for the rental of hotel rooms prior to the delivery of service. The delivery of products and room rental services is based upon contract terms and customer demand, normally within one year.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The operations of the Company are in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company has cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. Cash in state-owned banks is covered by insurance up to RMB 500,000 ($72,500) per bank. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has uninsured deposits in banks of $407,521 and $289,059 held in the PRC.

The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes they are not exposed to any risks on its cash in these bank accounts.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had two customers that accounted for  13% and 11% of its total revenue, respectively. Net sales for the customers amounted to $122,050 and $100,735 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had one customer that accounted for 17% of its total revenue. Net sales for the customer amounted to $530,704 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had no customer that accounted for over 10% of its total revenue.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception under FASB ASC Topic 842, Right of Use Assets (“ROU”) and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of its leases do not provide an implicit rate, it uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. ROU assets are adjusted for prepayments and accrued lease payments. ROU assets also reflect any lease payments made prior to commencement and are recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease and such options are considered when determining the value of an ROU asset when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

ROU assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. ROU assets from operating and finance leases are subject to the impairment guidance in ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, as ROU assets are long-lived nonfinancial assets.

ROU assets are tested for impairment individually or as part of an asset group if the cash flows related to the ROU asset are not independent from the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An asset group is the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. The Company recognized no impairment of ROU assets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Operating leases are included in operating lease ROU and operating lease liabilities (current and non-current), on the consolidated balance sheets.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based on the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accrued liabilities and accounts payable, approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and the current market rate of interest.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.

Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The functional currency of the Company is RMB. For financial reporting purposes, RMB is translated into USD as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period.

Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders’ equity as “Accumulated other comprehensive income”. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There was no significant fluctuation in the exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.

The Company uses FASB ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”. Comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. Comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 consisted of net income (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Earnings per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for options and warrants. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any potentially dilutive instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company periodically grants stock options, warrants and awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions as compensation for services rendered. The Company accounts for stock option, stock warrant and stock award grants to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the FASB where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option, stock warrant and stock award grants to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock compensation is determined based upon the measurement date at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the employees and non-employees, option, warrant and award grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

Segment Reporting

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s chief operating decision maker organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions assessing performance and allocating resources. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

The Company manages its business as four operating segments, direct sales, pharmacy, hotel, and manufacture and sales, all of which are located in the PRC. All of its revenues are derived in the PRC. All long-lived assets are located in PRC.
