NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2017
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Avalon GloboCare Corp. (f/k/a Global Technologies Corp.) (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 28, 2014. On October 18, 2016, the Company changed its name to Avalon GloboCare Corp. and completed a reverse split its shares of common stock at a ratio of 1:4. On October 19, 2016, the Company entered into and closed a Share Exchange Agreement with the shareholders of Avalon Healthcare System, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AHS”), each of which are accredited investors (“AHS Shareholders”) pursuant to which we acquired 100% of the outstanding securities of AHS in exchange for 50,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “AHS Acquisition”). AHS was incorporated on May 18, 2015 under the laws of the State of Delaware. As a result of such acquisition, the Company’s operations now are focused on integrating and managing global healthcare services and resources, as well as empowering high-impact biomedical innovations and technologies to accelerate their clinical applications. Operating through two major platforms, namely “Avalon Cell”, and “Avalon Rehab”, our “technology + service” ecosystem covers the areas of regenerative medicine, cell-based immunotherapy, exosome technology, as well as fertility and rehabilitation medicine. We plan to integrate these services through joint ventures and acquisitions that bring shareholder value both in the short term, through operational entities as part of Avalon Rehab and in the long term, through biomedical innovations as part of Avalon Cell. AHS owns 100% of the capital stock of Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd. (“Avalon Shanghai”), which is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise organized under the laws of the China. Avalon Shanghai was incorporated on April 29, 2016 and is engaged in medical related consulting services for customers.
For accounting purposes, AHS was the surviving entity. The transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of AHS pursuant to which AHS was treated as the accounting acquirer, surviving and continuing entity although the Company is the legal acquirer. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with this transaction. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of AHS and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Avalon Shanghai immediately following the consummation of this reverse merger transaction.
On February 7, 2017, the Company formed Avalon RT 9 Properties, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, and on January 23, 2017, the Company incorporated Avalon (BVI) Ltd, a British Virgin Island company. There was no activity for these two newly formed subsidiaries since their formation and/or incorporation through March 31, 2017.
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
Basis of presentation
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, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2017.
Going concern
The Company currently has limited operations. The Company’s operations now are focused on providing outsourced, customized international healthcare services to the rapidly changing health care industry primarily focused in the People’s Republic of China. The Company is also pursuing the provision of these services in the United States as well as certain strategic partnerships and property ownership and management. These unaudited condensed 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.

MARCH 31, 2017
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN (continued)
Going concern (continued)
As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $602,702 at March 31, 2017 and had a net loss and net cash flow used in operating activities of $549,333 and $412,814 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, 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 three clients who are related parties; 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 unaudited condensed 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 months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the useful life of property and equipment, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, accruals for taxes due, and valuation of options.
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 consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable – related party, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities – related parties, income taxes payable, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) and other taxes payable, due to related parties, and refundable deposit, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Cash
Cash consists of cash on hand and cash in banks. The Company maintains cash with various financial institutions in the PRC and United States. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, cash balances in the PRC are $310,881 and $2,525,630, respectively, are uninsured. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, cash balances in United States are $5,120,347 and $360,559, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.
Concentrations of credit risk
Currently, a significant portion of the Company’s operations are carried out in the 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 the 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.
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts 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 small 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 receivables 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 March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:
Country: | March 31, 2017 | December 31, 2016 | ||||||||||||||
United States | $ | 5,120,347 | 94.3 | % | $ | 360,559 | 12.5 | % | ||||||||
China | 310,881 | 5.7 | % | 2,525,630 | 87.5 | % | ||||||||||
Total cash | $ | 5,431,228 | 100.0 | % | $ | 2,886,189 | 100.0 | % |
Accounts receivable – related party and allowance for doubtful accounts
Accounts receivable – related party 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 – related party at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company historically has not experienced uncollectible accounts from customers granted with credit sales.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant 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 year 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.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
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 months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
Value added tax
The Company is subject to a value added tax (“VAT”) of 6% for providing consulting service. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rate to the invoiced amount of consulting services provided (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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Revenue recognition
Pursuant to the guidance of ASC Topic 605, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been provided, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company provides 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 in a fixed period of time. 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 and amounts are earned, using the straight-line method over the term of the related services agreement. Prepayments, if any, received from customers prior to the services being performed are recorded as advance from customers. In these cases, when the services are performed, the amount recorded as advance from customers is recognized as revenue.
Cost of revenue
Cost of consulting services includes internal labor and related benefits, travel expenses related to consulting services, subcontractor costs, other related consulting costs, and other overhead costs.
Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment topic of ASC Topic 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The awards to consultants and other third-parties are then revalued, or the total compensation is recalculated, based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date.
Research and development
Expenditures for research and product development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company did not incur any research and development costs during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Advertising
All costs related to advertising are expensed as incurred. The Company did not incur any advertising expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
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 March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no 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, 2016 and 2015. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions in other expense. However, no such interest and penalties were recorded as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company and its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries, Avalon Healthcare System Inc., Avalon RT 9 Properties, LLC, and Avalon (BVI) Ltd., is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s its wholly-owned PRC subsidiary, Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd., is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the subsidiary 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.
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 March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were translated at 6.8926 RMB to $1.00 and at 6.9448 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 rate applied to the statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 6.8877 RMB to $1.00. 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 stockholders’ 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 months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 consisted of net loss and unrealized loss from foreign currency translation adjustment.

Earnings (loss) per share
ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) 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 (using the treasury stock method). Common stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings (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 March 31, | ||||||||
2017 | 2016 | |||||||
Net loss for basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock | $ | (549,333 | ) | $ | (59,471 | ) | ||

Net loss per common share - basic and diluted | $ | (0.009 | ) | $ | (0.001 | ) |
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, stock options to purchase 111,111 shares of common stock have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Segment reporting
The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. 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. All of the Company's operations are considered by the chief operating decision maker to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Currently, all of the Company’s customers are in the People’s Republic of China and all income is derived from consulting services.
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.
Reverse stock split
The Company effected an one-for-four reverse stock split of its common stock on October 18, 2016. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Common shares issued for Share Subscription Agreement (continued)
The Company, Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd. (“Avalon Shanghai”), Beijing DOING Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd. (“DOING”) and the March 2017 Accredited Investor entered into a Share Subscription Agreement whereby the parties acknowledged, among other things, that DOING agreed to transfer the Purchase Price to Avalon Shanghai on behalf of the March 2017 Accredited Investor and the March 2017 Accredited Investor agreed to transfer the March 2017 Shares to DOING upon DOING completing the registration of the acquisition of the March 2017 Shares with the Beijing Commerce Commission (“BCC”) and obtaining an Enterprise Overseas Investment Certificate (the “Investment Certificate”) from BCC. If DOING fails to complete the registration and acquire the Investment Certificate within one year of the closing then Avalon Shanghai shall transfer $3,000,000 with an annual interest of 20% to DOING upon the request of DOING (the “BCC Repayment Obligation”). As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated to DOING in the principal amount of $3,000,000. The BCC Repayment Obligation is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company. Further, Wenzhao Lu, a director and shareholder of the Company, and DOING entered into a Warranty Agreement. Pursuant to the Warranty Agreement, Mr. Lu agreed to (i) cause the Company to be liable to DOING in the event the March 2017 Accredited Investor defaults in its obligations to DOING, (ii) cause the March 2017 Accredited Investor to transfer the March 2017 Shares to DOING upon DOING’s receipt of the Investment Certificate from BCC, (iii) within three years from the date of the Warranty Agreement, DOING may require Mr. Lu to acquire the March 2017 Shares at $1.20 per share upon three-month notice, and (iv) in the event Mr. Lu does not acquire the March 2017 Shares within the three-month period, interest of 15% per annum will be added to the purchase price.
The Company received cash payment of $3,000,000 as an earnest money from DOING in connection with the 3,000,000 common stock issued to the March 2017 Accredited Investor who is an entrusted party that holds the shares on behalf of DOING and recorded the $3,000,000 as refundable deposit on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Upon DOING completing the registration of the acquisition of the March 2017 Shares with the BCC and obtaining an Enterprise Overseas Investment Certificate from BCC, the Company will cancel the stock certificate issued under the March 2017 Accredited Investor’s name as an entrusted holder of the shares and the Company will issue a new stock certificate under DOING’s name. The $3,000,000 refundable deposit, which paid by DOING as an earnest money will be applied as the proceeds for issuance of the 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under DOING’s name at the closing date.
The Company is subject to the contingency of paying interest liability upon the request of DOING if DOING fails to complete the registration and obtain the Enterprise Overseas Investment Certificate within one year. The Company records accrual for such contingency based upon the assessment of the probability of occurrence and, where determinable, an estimate of the liability. Management may consider many factors in making these assessments including past history and the specifics of this matter. The Company did not accrue any interest for the BCC Repayment Obligation since management has evaluated the claim and concluded the likelihood of the claim is remote.

In February and March 2017, the Company granted a total of 111,111 options to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) at a fixed exercise price of $0.50 per share.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, cash balances in the PRC are $310,881 and $2,525,630, respectively, are uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in PRC bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in PRC bank accounts.
The Company maintains its cash in United States bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s cash balances in United States bank accounts had approximately $4,834,097 and $80,000 in excess of the federally-insured limits, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in its United States bank accounts through and as of the date of this report.
NOTE 13 – RESTRICTED NET ASSETS
A portion of the Company’s operations are conducted through its PRC subsidiary, which can only pay dividends out of its retained earnings determined in accordance with the accounting standards and regulations in the PRC and after it has met the PRC requirements for appropriation to statutory reserve. In addition, the Company’s businesses and assets are primarily 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 the Company’s PRC subsidiary to transfer its net assets to the Parent Company through loans, advances or cash dividends.
The Company’s PRC subsidiary’s net assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 did not exceed 25% of the Company’s consolidated net assets. Accordingly, Parent Company’s condensed financial statements have not been required in accordance with Rule 5-04 and Rule 12-04 of SEC Regulation S-X.
NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 28, 2017, Steven P. Sukel and Yancen Lu were appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company to serve as directors of the Company. Mr. Sukel and Mr. Lu both entered into agreements pursuant to which they will serve as directors. The director agreements provide that they will receive options to receive 40,000 shares of common stock per year at an exercise price equal to the closing price on December 31st of the prior year. The options shall vest in equal amounts quarterly and shall be exercisable for a period of five years. The options for 2017 have been pro-rated. As a result, each director shall receive a stock option to acquire 30,000 shares of common stock during 2017 for a term of five years vesting 10,000 shares at the beginning of each quarter commencing April 1, 2017. The exercise price for the initial grant in April 2017 was set at $1.49 per share.
On May 5, 2017, the Company closed the real property purchase located in the Township of Freehold, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey (see note 11 – real property purchase agreement).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Avalon GloboCare Corp. for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 should be read in conjunction with the Avalon GloboCare Corp. unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. 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 28, 2017. 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 subsidiaries.
Overview
We are dedicated to integrating and managing global healthcare services and resources, as well as empowering high-impact biomedical innovations and technologies to accelerate their clinical applications. Operating through two major platforms, namely “Avalon Cell”, and “Avalon Rehab”, our “technology + service” ecosystem covers the areas of regenerative medicine, cell-based immunotherapy, exosome technology, as well as fertility and rehabilitation medicine. We plan to integrate these services through joint ventures and acquisitions that bring shareholder value both in the short term, through operational entities as part of Avalon Rehab and in the long term, through biomedical innovations as part of Avalon Cell.
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 three clients who are our related parties; 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 $602,702 at March 31, 2017 and had a net loss and net cash used in operating activities of $549,333 and $412,814 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, 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 factors, among others, raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed 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.
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.
The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited 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 bad debts, recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes and the valuation of equity transactions.
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 unaudited consolidated financial statements.
18
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
We 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 in a fixed period of time. 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 and amounts are earned, using the straight-line method over the term of the related services agreement. Prepayments, if any, received from customers prior to the services being performed are recorded as advance from customers. In these cases, when the services are performed, the amount recorded as advance from customers is recognized as revenue.
Income Taxes
We are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC 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.
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.
Stock-based Compensation
Stock based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment topic of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award. The Accounting Standards Codification also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the period of services or the vesting period, whichever is applicable. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. We record compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The awards to consultants and other third-parties are then revalued, or the total compensation is recalculated based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. We are currently evaluating the impact it may have on our consolidated financial statements.
19
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 our consolidated financial statements upon adoption. We do not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016
Revenue
We generated revenue commencing on July 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had revenues from related parties of $66,286. We did not generate any revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue 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.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, cost of revenues was $99,581. Since we started generating revenue during the third quarter of 2016, we had neither revenue nor cost of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Gross Loss and Gross Margin
Our gross loss was $33,295 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, representing gross margin of (50.2)%. The negative gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily resulted from low revenue and the allocation of fixed costs, mainly consisting of internal labor and related benefits, to cost of the low level of revenue.
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, operating expenses consisted of the following:
Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
2017 | 2016 | |||||||
Selling expense | $ | 8,711 | $ | - | ||||
Compensation and related benefits | 182,927 | - | ||||||
Professional fees | 207,218 | 36,075 | ||||||
Rent | 36,428 | - | ||||||
Other general and administrative | 24,304 | 23,404 | ||||||
$ | 459,588 | $ | 59,479 |
· | Our selling expense mainly includes our marketing and sales staff’s salaries and related benefits, and travel and entertainment costs incurred by our sales department. Selling expense totaled $8,711 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, while, we did not incur any selling expense during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Selling expense as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 13.1%. |
· | Our compensation and related benefits amounted to $182,927 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, while, we did not incur any compensation and related benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2016. |
· | Professional fees primarily consisted of accounting fees, legal service fees, consulting fees, investor relations service charges and other fees incurred for service related to becoming and being a public company. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, professional fees amounted to $207,218 and $36,075, respectively, an increase of $171,143 or 474.4%. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in accounting fees of approximately $14,000 incurred for services performed by our financial consultant, an increase in audit fees incurred of approximately $90,000, an increase in legal services fees of approximately $50,000, and an increase in other miscellaneous items of approximately $17,000 resulting from our business expansion. We expect professional fees to increase as we incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, and costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
20
· | Rent expense totaled $36,428 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We did not incur any rent expense since we did not rent any office space during the three months ended March 31, 2016. |
· | Other general and administrative expenses mainly consisted of travel and entertainment, office supplies, miscellaneous taxes, bank service charge and other miscellaneous items. Other general and administrative expenses remained roughly consistent for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. |
Loss from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, loss from operations amounted to $492,883, as compared to loss from operations of $59,479 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a change of $433,404, or 728.7%.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) includes interest income from bank deposits and foreign currency transaction loss. Other expense, net, totaled $56,450 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared to other income, net, of $8 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a change of $56,458, which was mainly attributable to an increase in foreign currency transaction loss of approximately $57,200, offset by an increase in interest income of approximately $800.
Income Taxes
We did not have any income taxes expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 since we incurred losses in the periods.
Net Loss
As a result of the factors described above, our net loss was $549,333, or $(0.009) per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our net loss was $59,471, or $(0.001) per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our parent company and our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, Avalon Healthcare System Inc., Avalon RT 9 Properties, LLC, and Avalon (BVI) Ltd., is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of our wholly-owned PRC subsidiary, Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd. which is incorporated in China, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The financial statements of our subsidiary 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 the period) for revenue, 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 $39,771 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This non-cash loss had the effect of increasing our reported comprehensive loss.
Comprehensive Loss
As a result of our foreign currency translation adjustment, we had comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $589,104, compared to comprehensive loss of $59,471 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
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 March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had cash balance of approximately $5,431,000 and $2,886,000, respectively. These funds are kept in financial institutions located as follows:

Total cash | $ | 5,431,228 | 100.0 | % | $ | 2,886,189 | 100.0 | % |
The following table sets forth a summary of changes in our working capital from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017:

Working capital: | $ | 3,071,245 | $ | 3,545,896 | $ | (474,651 | ) | (13.4 | )% |
Our working capital decreased by $475,000 to $3,071,000 at March 31, 2017 from $3,546,000 at December 31, 2016. The decrease in working capital was primarily attributable to an increase in refundable deposit of $3,000,000 related to our March 2017 Subscription Agreement (see note 9 – Common shares issued for Share Subscription Agreement), offset by a significant increase in cash of $2,545,000 mainly resulting from the cash received as earnest money from DOING in connection with the Share Subscription Agreement.
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 Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
The following summarizes the key components of our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:
Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
2017 | 2016 | |||||||
Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (412,814 | ) | $ | (71,309 | ) | ||
Net cash used in investing activities | (2,000 | ) | - | |||||
Net cash provided by financing activities | 3,000,000 | 150,000 | ||||||
Effect of exchange rate on cash | (40,147 | ) | - | |||||
Net increase in cash | $ | 2,545,039 | $ | 78,691 |
Net cash flow used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $413,000, which primarily reflected our net loss of $549,000, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily consisting of an increase in security deposit of $24,000, and a decrease in income taxes payable of $21,000, offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $29,000, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities – related parties of $16,000, and the add-back of non-cash items mainly consisting of stock-based compensation of $138,000.
Net cash flow used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 reflected our net loss of approximately $59,000, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities consisting of a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $10,000, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities – related parties of approximately $2,000.
Net cash flow used in investing activities reflects the prepayment made for acquisition of real property of $2,000. We did not incur any investing activity during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $3,000,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received $3,000,000 proceeds of refundable deposit as earnest money in connection with the Share Subscription Agreement related to the 3,000,000 common stock issued to the March 2017 Accredited Investor who is an entrusted party that holds the shares on behalf of DOING. Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $150,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we received advance from related parties of $9,000 and received AHS’s founders’ contribution of $141,000, in funding our operations.
22
Our capital requirements for the next twelve months primarily relate to purchasing certain real property located in the Township of Freehold, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey, having a street address of 4400 Route 9, Freehold, NJ 07798. In addition, we expect to use cash to pay salaries and fees related to third parties’ professional services. 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:
· | Purchase price of $7.6 million to be paid for the property located in Township of Freehold, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey; |
· | An increase in working capital requirements to finance our current business; |
· | The use of capital for mergers, acquisitions and the development of business opportunities; |
· | Addition of administrative and sales 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, 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 March 31, 2017, 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
Our primary operations are in China. Thus, most of our revenue and operating results may be impacted by exchange rate fluctuations between RMB and US dollars. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we had unrealized foreign currency translation loss of approximately $40,000 and $0, 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 March 31, 2017, 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 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 March 31, 2017 due to the material weakness we reported in our 2016 10-K which has not yet been remediated. In our 2016 10-K we reported that we did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of experience and training in the application of U.S. GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements and we did not form a formal audit committee.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to material weakness) 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.
24
From time to time, we are subject to ordinary routine litigation incidental to our normal business operations. We are not currently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition.
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 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On February 21, 2017, we entered into an Executive Retention Agreement with Ms. Ingariola effective February 9, 2017 pursuant to which Ms. Ingariola agreed to serve as Chief Financial Officer. As partial compensation, we granted Ms. Ingariola a Stock Option to acquire 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for a period of ten years. The Stock Options vest in 36 equal tranches commencing on the grant date. In February and March 2017, we vested a total of 111,111 options to our CFO. In connection with the option vest, we recorded stock-based compensation of $138,334.
The Company entered into and closed a Subscription Agreement with an accredited investor (the "March 2017 Accredited Investor") pursuant to which the March 2017 Accredited Investor purchased 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“March 2017 Shares”) for a purchase price of $3,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). The closing occurred on March 3, 2017. The Company, Avalon (Shanghai) Healthcare Technology Co., Ltd. (“Avalon Shanghai”), Beijing DOING Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd. (“DOING”) and the March 2017 Accredited Investor entered into a Share Subscription Agreement whereby the parties acknowledged, among other things, that DOING agreed to transfer the Purchase Price to Avalon Shanghai on behalf of the March 2017 Accredited Investor and the March 2017 Accredited Investor agreed to transfer the March 2017 Shares to DOING upon DOING completing the registration of the acquisition of the March 2017 Shares with the Beijing Commerce Commission (“BCC”) and obtaining an Enterprise Overseas Investment Certificate (the “Investment Certificate”) from BCC. If DOING fails to complete the registration and acquire the Investment Certificate within one year of the closing then Avalon Shanghai shall transfer $3,000,000 with interest of 20% to DOING upon the request of DOING (the “BCC Repayment Obligation”).As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated to DOING in the principal amount of $3,000,000. The BCC Repayment Obligation is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business, which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company. Further, Wenzhao Lu, a director and shareholder of the Company, and DOING entered into a Warranty Agreement. Pursuant to the Warranty Agreement, Mr. Lu agreed to (i) cause the Company to be liable to DOING in the event the March 2017 Accredited Investor defaults in its obligations to DOING, (ii) cause the March 2017 Accredited Investor to transfer the March 2017 Shares to DOING upon DOING’s receipt of the Investment Certificate from BCC, (iii) within three years from the date of the Warranty Agreement, DOING may require Mr. Lu to acquire the March 2017 Shares at $1.20 per share upon three-month notice, and (iv) in the event Mr. Lu does not acquire the March 2017 Shares within the three month period, interest of 15% per annum will be added to the purchase price.
In connection with the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of common stock, we recorded a refundable deposit of $3,000,000 as an earnest money received from DOING. Upon DOING completing the registration of the acquisition of the March 2017 Shares with the BCC and obtaining an Enterprise Overseas Investment Certificate from BCC, the Company will cancel the stock certificate issued under the March 2017 Accredited Investor’s name as an entrusted holder of the shares and the Company will issue a new stock certificate under DOING’s name. The $3,000,000 refundable deposit, which paid by DOING as an earnest money will be applied as the proceeds for issuance of the 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under DOING’s name at the closing date.
