Impact of Investigation of our Related Parties
On July 1, 2022, Mr. Huajun Gao and Mr. Aiming Kong,
each an 11.5% shareholder of the Company, were detained by Nan County Public Safety Bureau (“NCPSB”) of Yiyang City, Hunan
Province, China. On July 26, 2022, Nan County People’s Procuratorate approved the arrest of Mr. Gao and Mr. Kong, charging them
with illegal business operation of Nanjing Jinwang Art Purchase E-commerce Co., Ltd., a company they controlled (“Nanjing Jinwang”).
On July 1, 2022, the bank accounts of Nanjing Jinwang were frozen by NCPSB, including a trust account into which the customers of the
Company deposit their security deposits to trade on the Company’s two online trading platforms which the Company entrusted Nanjing
Jinwang for escrow.
Also, on July 1, 2022, NCPSB froze certain bank accounts
of Kashi Longrui Business Management Services Co., Ltd. (“Kashi Longrui”), Kashi Dongfang Cangpin Culture Development Co.,
Ltd. (“Kashi Dongfang”) and Nanjing Yanyu Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Nanjing Yanyu”), all subsidiaries
of Jiangsu Yanggu Culture Development Co., Ltd., the variable interest entity of the Company in China (the “VIE”) because
they each had business relationships with Nanjing Jinwang.
Neither the Company nor its VIE or subsidiaries
of its VIE received any notification of enforcement charges from NCPSB, other than cash and short-term investment in the frozen bank accounts
with balances totaling approximately $16.1 million on June 30, 2023 and due from Nangjng Jinwang of approximately $0.5 million relating
to the Nanjing Jinwang investigation described above. Mr. Gao and Mr. Kong are not officers, directors or employees of the Company, its
VIE or subsidiaries of the VIE.
Due to the investigation of Nanjing Jinwang and frozen
bank accounts, the business operations of the Company have been materially and negatively impacted as its customers experienced difficulties
withdrawing their security deposits through online banking and have concerns regarding their deposited funds. The Company has taken remedial
measures to assist its customers in withdrawing security deposits, such as through manual and in person application with the bank to transfer
funds, so they will have confidence in the Company and continue to list and trade art and collectible products on the online platforms
of the Company. However, there can be no assurance that these measures will restore customer confidence in using the Company’s services
efficiently or at all.
The investigation of Mr. Gao, Mr. Kong and Nanjing
Jinwang is ongoing. The Company has and will continue to communicate with NCPSB and other government authorities to obtain more
information regarding the investigation and to attempt to unfreeze the bank accounts for the subsidiaries of the VIE. The Company will
monitor the investigation and will provide additional information concerning its impact on the Company’s business in due course.
This investigation of the
related parties has negative impact on our financial results. Our revenue decreased approximately $16.2 million from approximately $17.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to approximately $0.8 million for the comparable period of 2023 and our net income decreased
approximately $7.7 million from approximately $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to net loss of approximately $2.1 million
for the comparable period of 2023.
Share Consolidation
In October, 2023, the shareholders and Board of
Directors of the Company approved a share consolidation of each of the issued and unissued ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.00005
to be consolidated into one ordinary share with par value of $0.00025 each (the “Share Consolidation”), such that immediately
following the Share Consolidation, the authorized share capital of the Company changed from (a) US$50,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 shares
with a par value of US$0.00005 per share of which (x) 900,000,000 shares are designated as ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.00005
per share and (y) 100,000,000 shares are designated as preferred shares with a par value of US$0.00005 per share, to (b) US$50,000 divided
into 280,000,000 shares of which (x) 180,000,000 shares are designated as ordinary shares with par value of US$0.00025 per share and (y)100,000,000
shares are designated as preferred shares with par value of US$0.00005 per share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company typically financed
its operations through internally generated cash and equity financing. As of June 30, 2023, excluding restricted cash and investments,
the Company had approximately $21.6 million in cash The Company’s working capital was approximately $19.8 million at June 30, 2023,
excluding the funds that were frozen by NCPSB.
If the Company is unable
to realize its assets within the normal operating cycle of a 12-month period, the Company may have to consider supplementing its available
sources of funds through the following sources:
| ● | other
available sources of equity or debt financing from financial institutions; and |
| ● | financial
support from our related parties and shareholders. |
Based on the above considerations,
the Company’s management believes that it has sufficient funds to meet its working capital requirements and debt obligations
as they become due over the next 12 months.
Results of Operations
The tables in the following discussion summarize our
unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income(loss) for the periods indicated. The operating
results in any period are not necessarily of the results that may be expected for any future period.

(1) Listing service fees: Our performance obligation
is to provide listing on our platform. Listing service fees are calculated based on a percentage of the listing value of collectibles,
artworks and commodities. Listing value is the total offering price of the collectible, the artwork or the commodity when the ownership
units are initially listed on our trading platform. We utilize appraised value as a basis to determine the appropriate listing value for
each piece of collectible or artwork, or portfolio of collectibles or artwork. In general, listing service fees are recognized upon completion
of our performance obligation. Our standard listing fees range from 2.3% to 5.3% for artwork and collectibles and 1%-6% for commodities
of the initial listing value. The rate is dependent on the type of listing and is negotiated on a case by case basis. The average listing
period is around three months.
Total listing service fees decreased by approximately
$1.2 million or 95.6% from $1,249,593 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $54,535 for the comparable period in 2023. During the
six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total listing value of listed artwork, collectibles and commodities was approximately $4.7 million
and $1.5 billion, respectively. In addition, there was less listing value generated by new products listings with approximately $2.4 million
and $33.3 million for new products listed during the six months ended Jun 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The number of new collectibles/artwork
and commodities listed on our platforms decreased from 29 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to 2 for the six months ended
June 30, 2023. The decrease in our listings was mainly due to the impact from the frozen bank accounts caused by the on-going investigation
of our related parties starting in the second half of 2022, which damaged the confidence of customers to continue listing products
with us.
(2) Transaction fee revenue: Transaction fee
revenue is generally calculated based on the transaction value of collectibles, artwork or commodity per transaction for our services
to facilitate the trading transactions. Transaction value is the dollar amount of the purchase and sale of the ownership units of the
collectibles, artwork or commodities after it is listed on our platform. We typically charge from 0.15% to 0.3% of the transaction value
per transaction from both the purchase and sale side of the transaction resulting in an aggregate of 0.3% to 0.6% of total transaction
value. Sometimes, we charge a predetermined transaction rate, which is negotiated on a case by case basis, for selected traders with specific
large transactions. Transaction fee revenue also includes predetermined monthly transaction fees, which are negotiated case by case for
selected traders with high trading volume, and is recognized and earned over the specified service period.
The
Company also had a customer reward points program, pursuant to which reward points were issued for opening a new account or
referring customers to open accounts with us during our promotion period. In that regard, customers are required to redeem certain
reward points for new listings in addition to the regular listing services fees. If a customer does not own any reward points,
he/she can purchase them from other customers on our platform. We do not record revenue when customers redeem any points as it is
considered as a prerequisite for a new listing in addition to the regular services fees. The points are traded by and among our
customers on the platform and we charge a transaction fee from such points trading. The Company assessed if a material right existed
when the Company initially issued the reward points and if the points represent a separate performance obligation. In general, the
points were given to customers based on existing accounts or promotions without the customers having to acquire services from the
Company, therefore there was no material right and no separate performance obligation exists. There is no liability for unredeemed
awards. Transaction fee revenue from the trading of points was approximately $1,500 and
$1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Total transaction fee revenue decreased by approximately
$12.3 million or 96.1% from $12,835,350 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $497,808 for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease
was mainly due to the decrease in total transaction value. The total transaction value on our platforms decreased from approximately $8.3
billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to approximately $300 million for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease in our transaction
was mainly due to impact from the frozen bank accounts and lack of customers confidence to trade on our platform as discussed above.
(3) Marketing service fees: Marketing service
fee revenue is a fee we charge for promoting and marketing our customers’ collectibles or artwork. The services include assisting
our customers in connection with his/her/its listing and trading of his/her/its collectible/artwork on our platforms, which mainly includes
consulting and supporting services of the marketability for the collectible/artwork; assessing its market value and market acceptance;
and assisting in the application and legal protection required for the customer’s collectible/artwork to be approved for listing
on our platforms. For marketing service contracts in which the related performance obligations can be completed within one to two months,
the Company recognizes the related revenue upon the completion of its performance obligations.
Marketing service agreements also includes providing
promotion services for customers’ items as where to place ads on well-known cultural art exchange websites in China, to provide
online and offline marketing services including cooperation with auction houses and participate in industry-related exhibitions and fairs.
The marketing service fees are charged on various fixed fee basis, which are based on the type of the listing session that the customer
applies for and whether the customer has listed and sold its collectible on other platforms before, and they were not tied to the type
or value of the underlying collectible/artwork. Marketing service contracts and fees are recognized upon the completion of all performance
obligations.
Marketing service fees decreased by approximately
$2.6 million or 94.1% from $2,855,684 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $169,137 for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease
was due to decreased promotion and listing services for collectibles/artwork. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 2 and
29 collectibles/artwork were successfully listed on our platforms, of which we promoted 2 and 29 newly listed collectibles and artwork
for our customers, respectively. The decrease was due to the decrease in listing and transactions for reasons stated above which
reduced the related marketing services as well.
(4) Other revenues: Other revenues (including
$76,836 and $99,052 from related parties for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively) primarily includes services fees
for IT technical support. IT technical support fees are negotiated on a case by case basis and are recognized when the related services
have been performed based on the specific terms of the contract. Total other revenues decreased by approximately $0.03 million or 26.5%
from $106,093 (including $99,052 from providing technological services to our related parties) for the six months ended June 30, 2022
to $77,980 (including $76,836 from providing technological services to our related parties) for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease
was primarily because we provided less consulting and training services to traders for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues decreased by approximately $0.9 million
or 82.2% from $1,076,308 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $191,526 for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease in cost of
revenues was primarily due to the decrease in storage fees of approximately $0.3 million due to the decrease in the listing value of collectibles/artwork.
The warehouse storage fees are based on a certain percentage of the listing value of collectibles/artwork and the decrease in warehouse
storage fees was due to an overall decrease in listing value of products during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022
and 2023 was $15,970,412 and $607,934, respectively. Gross profit decreased by approximately $15.4 million or 96.2% due to the
reasons mentioned above.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately
$7.0 million or 94.3% from $7,392,637 (including $43,897 to a related party) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $423,930 for the
comparable period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in marketing expenses of approximately $6.6 million as we paid
less in commissions due to fewer new listings and traders introduced by third parties, and the decrease of approximately $0.4 million
from a related party as we paid no advertising fees to Kashi Jinwang Art Purchase E-commerce Co., Ltd. due to the decrease of revenues,
during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the comparable period of 2022. The Company has two types of commission program,
one is directly to customers when the customer reached certain transaction volume while the other is to reward third party sales agents
for referral of new customers. Commission paid directly to customers are considered as a reduction in sales price. Commission to third
party sales agents is usually accrued monthly and paid in one to three months in arrears and recorded in the Company’s selling and
marketing expenses.
General and Administrative
Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses decreased
by approximately $0.9 million, or 24% from $3,504,116 (including $122,274 to a related party) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to
$2,573,939 (including $116,135 to a related party) for the comparable period in 2023. The decrease in our general and administrative expenses
was primarily due to the decrease in professional fees of approximately $0.7 million as we incurred less consulting services due to less
business and less revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Other Income
Total other income decreased by approximately $0.3
million or 52.4%, from $549,796 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $261,869 for the comparable period in 2023. The other income
consists of a gain from a short-term investment, interest income and other income. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease of approximately
$0.15 million in other income, which primarily consists of VAT refunds and government subsidies to promote local business development.
As part of VAT reform in 2019, a taxpayer in certain service industries was allowed to reclaim an additional 10% of input VAT credit against
the amount of VAT payable from April 1, 2019 to June 30, 2023. Our other income from VAT refunds decreased due to decreased revenue during
six months ended June 30, 2023.
Provision for Income
Taxes
Our provision for income taxes was nil for the six
months ended June 30, 2022 and $8,643 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. We generated most of our income from the subsidiaries
of our VIE that had preferential tax treatment which are formed and registered in Kashi in Xinjiang Provence, China. We also provided
a 100% allowance on net operating losses from our VIE which incurred losses.
Net Income
Our net income decreased by approximately $7.8 million,
or 138%, from $5,623,455 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to a loss of $2,136,709 for the comparable period in 2023. Such change
was the result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.
Basic and diluted (loss)
earnings per share
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were
$1.34 and $ (0.50) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively, a 137.7% decrease.
