2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). 

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed 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.

 

In assessing the Company’s liquidity, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash and cash equivalents and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company’s liquidity needs are to meet its working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded the current assets by $6,976,770, its accumulated deficit was $5,060,951 and the Company has incurred losses during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. None of the Company’s stockholders, officers or directors, or third parties, are under any obligation to advance us funds, or to invest in us. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of our business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

 

In evaluating if there is substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern, the Company are trying to alleviate the going concern risk through (1) increasing cash generated from operations by controlling operating expenses and increasing more online and offline training sessions to bring in more training revenue, (2) financing from domestic banks and other financial institutions, and (3) equity or debt financing. The Company has certain plans to mitigate these adverse conditions and to increase the liquidity.

 

On an on-going basis, the Company will also receive financial support commitments from the Company’s related parties.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Identified below are the accounting policies that reflect the Company’s most significant estimates and judgments, and those that the Company believes are the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating its interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19 Outbreak

 

In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, workforces, customers, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for our services and harm our business and results of operations. During 2022, there was resurgence of COVID-19 which has caused lockdowns in many cities in China. It is not possible for us to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on our business or results of operations at this time.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenues following the five step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, which may occur at a point in time or over time depending on the terms and conditions of the agreement, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company identified the following performance obligations for each type of contract:

 

Training revenue

 

The Company’s offline training course service primarily includes assigning instructors, providing offline classes and presenting training materials to the course participants who attend the classes. The series of tasks as discussed above are interrelated and are not separable or distinct as the clients cannot benefit from the standalone task.

 

The Company’s online training course service primarily includes coursewares or videos which are already published on the website. Other than providing the access, there are no bundle or multiple separable and distinct tasks.

 

According to ASC 606-10-25-19, there is one performance obligation for the training course service.

 

Charge for use of brand

 

The Company authorized other enterprises or individuals to use the Company's brand, providing services to customers at their location, with a brand usage fee. Revenue was recognized when such events using the Company’s brand are completed.

 

Other revenues include sales of anti-addiction mobile phone device and online sales of household items. The amount was immaterial compared to total revenue during nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Practical expedients and exemption

 

The Company has not occurred any costs to obtain contracts, and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

Other service income is earned when services have been rendered.

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the liability method. 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 against 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 in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

We apply ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to account for uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met.

 

Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US dollar”). Fengyuan Beijing and Zhuoxun Beijing, which are based in PRC, the local currency, the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”), as their functional currencies. An entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates, normally that is the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Management’s judgment is essential to determine the functional currency by assessing various indicators, such as cash flows, sales price and market, expenses, financing and inter-company transactions and arrangements.

 

11

 

 

Foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are re-measured at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency re-measurement are included in the statements of comprehensive loss.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at the average of the exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. Stockholders’ equity accounts are translated using the historical exchange rates at the date the entry to stockholders’ equity was recorded, except for the change in retained earnings during the period, which is translated using the historical exchange rates used to translate each period’s income statement. Differences resulting from translating functional currencies to the reporting currency are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Translation of amounts from RMB into U.S. dollars has been made at the following exchange rates:

 

Balance sheet items, except for equity accounts   
June 30, 2022  RMB6.6981 to $1
September 30, 2021  RMB6.4567 to $1
    
Income statement and cash flows items   
For the Nine months ended June 30, 2022  RMB6.4504 to $1
For the Nine months ended June 30, 2021  RMB6.5204 to $1

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and at banks and highly liquid investments, which are unrestricted from withdrawal or use, and which have original maturities of three months or less when purchased.

 

Other monetary funds

 

Other monetary funds consist of cash deposited in financial institutions other than banks.

 

Accounts Receivable, Net

 

The carrying value of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects the Company’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. The Company makes estimations of the collectability of accounts receivable. Many factors are considered in estimating the general allowance, including reviewing delinquent accounts receivable, performing an aging analysis and a customer credit analysis, and analyzing historical bad debt records and current economic trends.

 

The adoption of the new revenue standards did not change the Company’s historical accounting methods for its accounts receivable.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

 

12

 

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

   Estimated
useful lives
(years)
Office and computer equipment  5
Lease improvement  3
Transportation equipment  5

 

Expenditure for maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred.

 

The gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the lower of the carrying value or fair value less cost to sell the relevant assets and is recognized in general and administrative expenses in the interim condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets mainly comprise domain names and trademarks. Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization with no residual value. Amortization of intangible assets o is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.

 

The estimated useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets are listed below:

 

   Estimated

Software  10
    

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 360-10-35, the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment of long-lived assets using the projected discounted cash flow method at the asset group level. The estimation of future cash flows requires significant management judgment based on the Company’s historical results and anticipated results and is subject to many factors. The discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s business model is determined by its management. An impairment loss would be recorded if the Company determined that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. The impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying values of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. No impairment has been recorded by the Company as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021.

 

Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.

 

For the credit risk related to trade accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and, if necessary, maintains reserves for potential credit losses. Historically, such losses have been within management’s expectations.

 

13

 

 

Segments

 

The Company evaluates a reporting unit by first identifying its operating segments, and then evaluates each operating segment to determine if it includes one or more components that constitute a business. If there are components within an operating segment that meets the definition of a business, the Company evaluates those components to determine if they must be aggregated into one or more reporting units. If applicable, when determining if it is appropriate to aggregate different operating segments, the Company determines if the segments are economically similar and, if so, the operating segments are aggregated. The Company has only one major reportable segment in the periods presented.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring the fair value of financial instruments. This hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three-tier fair value hierarchy is:

 

Level 1 – observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 – include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the market place.

 

Level 3 – unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, other current assets, accounts and other payables, and other short-term liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

 

In accordance with ASC 825, for investments in financial instruments with a variable interest rate indexed to performance of underlying assets, the Company elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carried these investments at fair value. Changes in the fair value are reflected in the accompanying interim condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss as other income (expense). To estimate fair value, the Company refers to the quoted rate of return provided by banks at the end of each period using the discounted cash flow method. The Company classifies the valuation techniques that use these inputs as Level 2 of fair value measurements.

 

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had no investments in financial instruments.

 

Restricted assets

 

Fengyuan Beijing and Zhuoxun Beijing are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company. The payment of dividends by entities organized in China is subject to limitations, procedures and formalities. Regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. Fengyuan Beijing and Zhuoxun Beijing are also required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its statutory reserves account until the accumulative amount of such reserves reaches 50% of its respective registered capital. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends.

 

In addition, the Company’s operations are conducted and revenues are generated in China, and all of the Company’s revenues earned and currency received are denominated in RMB. RMB is subject to the foreign exchange control regulation in China, and, as a result, the Company may be unable to distribute any dividends outside of China due to PRC foreign exchange control regulations that restrict the Company’s ability to convert RMB into U.S. dollars.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

 

Financial Instruments. In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 revises the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. Originally, ASU 2016-13 was effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. In November 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842).” This ASU defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for public companies that are considered smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is planning to adopt this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, as if it had originated the contracts. Prior to this ASU, an acquirer generally recognizes contract assets acquired and contract liabilities assumed that arose from contracts with customers at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is to be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendment (or if adopted early as of an interim period, as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application). The Company is currently assessing this standard’s impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recent issued accounting standards that will have material impact on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

Recent Development

 

On July 31, 2022, the Company entered into collaboration agreements (the “Collaboration Agreements”, each a “Collaboration Agreement”) with Zhuoxun Beijing and several service providers (the “Service Providers”, each a “Service Provider”), under which the Service Providers will provide certain sales, marketing and promotion services for Zhuoxun Beijing across different regions of China, in exchange for certain monetary and securities compensation.

 

The Service Providers include Luohe Jiusheng Education Technology Co., Ltd., Zhumadian Yixun Education Information Consulting Co., Ltd., Luohe Zhengxun Education Technology Co., Ltd., Xiamen Maishuxiu Education Consulting Co., Ltd., Jincheng Outstanding Culture Media Co., Ltd., Wuyang Rongxing Culture Communication Co., Ltd., Zhengzhou Dingxun Culture Communication Co., Ltd., Sanmenxia Lingxun Culture Communication Co., Ltd., Xinxiang Chengxun Network Technology Co., Ltd., Luoyang Zhengxun Culture Communication Co., Ltd., Wuyang County Zhixue Culture Technology Co., Ltd., Henan Zhuoxun Culture Communication Co., Ltd..

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Identified below are the accounting policies that reflect the Company’s most significant estimates and judgments, and those that the Company believes are the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating its consolidated financial statements.

 

COVID-19 Outbreak

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, workforces, customers, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours and Zhuoxun Beijing’s. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for Zhuoxun Beijing’s services and harm Zhuoxun Beijing’s business and results of operations. Since March 2020, as different variants and subvariants of COVID-19 developed and spread in various regions across China, PRC provincial and local governments have imposed various forms of strict lockdowns, mass testing and extensive contact tracing measures for extended periods of time. Recent examples include lockdown measures put in place by the local governments in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, Changchun, Jilin Province and City of Shanghai in March to May 2022. Zhuoxun Beijing’s main business would continue to be affected by China’s anti-epidemic measures such as restrictions on public gatherings during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is not possible for us to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on Zhuoxun Beijing’s business or results of operations at this time.

Revenue Recognition

 

Zhuoxun Beijing recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which Zhuoxun Beijing expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Zhuoxun Beijing recognizes revenues following the five-step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) it satisfies the performance obligation.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers, which may occur at a point in time or over time depending on the terms and conditions of the agreement, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

Zhuoxun Beijing identified the following performance obligations for each type of contract:

 

Training revenue

 

Zhuoxun Beijing’s onsite training course service primarily includes assigning instructors, providing onsite classes and presenting training materials to the course participants who attend the classes. The series of tasks as discussed above are interrelated and are not separable or distinct as the customers cannot benefit from the standalone task.

 

Zhuoxun Beijing’s online training course service primarily includes courseware or videos which are already published on the website. Other than providing the access, there are no bundle or multiple separable and distinct tasks.

 

According to ASC 606-10-25-19, there is one performance obligation for the training course service.

 

Charge for use of brand

 

The Company authorized other enterprises or individuals to use the Company’s brand, providing services to customers at their location, with a brand usage fee. Revenue was recognized when such events using the Company’s brand are completed.

 

Other revenues include sales of anti-addiction mobile phone device and online sales of household items. The amount was immaterial compared to total revenue during nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Practical expedients and exemption

 

Zhuoxun Beijing has not occurred any costs to obtain contracts, and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

 

Other service income is earned when services have been rendered.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the liability method. 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 against 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 in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

We apply ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to account for uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met.

 

Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US dollar”). Fengyuan Beijing, Zhuoxun Beijing and Zhuoxun Beijing’s subsidiaries, all of which are based in PRC, use the local currency, the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”), as their functional currencies. An entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates, normally that is the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Management’s judgment is essential to determine the functional currency by assessing various indicators, such as cash flows, sales price and market, expenses, financing and inter-company transactions and arrangements.

 

22

 

 

Foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are re-measured at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency re-measurement are included in the statements of comprehensive loss.

 

The consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at the average of the exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. Stockholders’ equity accounts are translated using the historical exchange rates at the date the entry to stockholders’ equity was recorded, except for the change in retained earnings during the period, which is translated using the historical exchange rates used to translate each period’s income statement. Differences resulting from translating functional currencies to the reporting currency are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

 

Translation of amounts from RMB into U.S. dollars has been made at the following exchange rates:

 

Balance sheet items, except for equity accounts     
June 30, 2022  RMB 6.6981 to $1
September 30, 2021  RMB 6.4567 to $1
      
Income statement and cash flows items     
For the three months ended June 30, 2022  RMB 6.6084 to $1
For the three months ended June 30, 2021  RMB 6.5913 to $1
For the nine months ended June 30, 2022  RMB 6.4504 to $1
For the nine months ended June 30, 2021  RMB  6.5204 to $1

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 360-10-35, the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment of long-lived assets using the projected discounted cash flow method at the asset group level. The estimation of future cash flows requires significant management judgment based on the Company’s historical results and anticipated results and is subject to many factors. The discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s business model is determined by its management. An impairment loss would be recorded if the Company determined that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. The impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying values of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. No impairment has been recorded by the Company as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. 

 

Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.

 

For the credit risk related to trade accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and, if necessary, maintains reserves for potential credit losses. Historically, such losses have been within management’s expectations.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring the fair value of financial instruments. This hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three-tier fair value hierarchy is:

 

Level 1 – observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 – include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the market place

 

Level 3 – unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, other current assets, accounts and other payables, and other short-term liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

 

In accordance with ASC 825, for investments in financial instruments with a variable interest rate indexed to performance of underlying assets, the Company elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carried these investments at fair value. Changes in the fair value are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as other income (expense). To estimate fair value, the Company refers to the quoted rate of return provided by banks at the end of each period using the discounted cash flow method. The Company classifies the valuation techniques that use these inputs as Level 2 of fair value measurements.

 

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had no investments in financial instruments.

Revenue.

 

The Company’s revenue was increased from $33,369 to $965,542 during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restriction policy imposed by the government, the Company stopped offering the offline training since earlier 2021, which resumed during second half of 2021. Although the offline training resumed during second half of 2021 but the classes were limited due to the impact from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The offline training was offered in larger scale in current period. In addition, in order to better serve the students, from April 2022 on, the Company authorized other enterprises or individuals to use the Company’s brand, providing services to customers at their location, with a brand usage fee. Consequently, the revenue during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was more than the same period in 2021.

 

Cost of revenue

 

Our cost of revenue was $549,970 and $13,122 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase was in line with the increase of revenue.

 

Gross profit and gross margin.

 

Our gross profit was $415,572 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared with a gross profit of $20,247 for the same period in 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) was 43.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a gross margin of 60.68% for the same period in 2021.

 

 

Selling expenses

 

Our selling expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits to our expense related to the revenue, such as advertising fee, marketing fees. Our selling expenses decreased by $1,132,155 to $613,971 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1,746,126 for the same period in 2021. We adjusted the strategy by reducing our own selling employees. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic prevention policy control, the Company’s main business source cannot carry out normal business, the Company has adjusted its market layout since late 2021, so the input expenditure of marketing fees and service fees have been reduced. Consequently, the selling expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was significantly less than the same period in 2021.

Revenue.

 

The Company’s revenue was increased from $1,314,172 to $1,506,988 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021. Although the offline training resumed during second half of 2021 but the classes were limited due to the impact from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The offline training was offered in larger scale in current period. In addition, in order to better serve the students, from April 2022 on, the Company authorized other enterprises or individuals to use the Company’s brand, providing services to customers at their location, with a brand usage fee. Consequently, the revenue during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was more than the same period in 2021.

 

Cost of revenue

 

Our cost of revenue was $897,261 and $856,255 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase was in line with the crease of revenue.

 

Gross profit and gross margin.

We adjusted the strategy by reducing our own selling employees. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic prevention policy control, the Company’s main business source cannot carry out normal business, the Company has adjusted its market layout since late 2021, so the input expenditure of marketing fees and service fees have been reduced. Consequently, the selling expenses during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was significantly less than the same period in 2021.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

 

  Nine Months Ended
June 30,
 
   2022   2021 
Net cash used in operating activities  $(1,523,911)  $(3,488,115)
Net cash used in investing activities   (10,820)   (79,289)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents   (1,534,731)   (3,567,404)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents   (39,104)   346,602 
Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of period   2,659,622    7,134,106 
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period  $1,085,787   $3,913,303 

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,085,787. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through borrowings from our stockholders, related and unrelated parties.

 

Going Concern Uncertainties

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had working capital deficit of $ $6,976,770.

 

As of June 30, 2022, our cash balance was $1,085,787 and our current liabilities exceeded current assets by $6,976,770 which together with continued losses from operations raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to uncertainties and it is uncertain if the management will be able to achieve profitability and continued growth for the foreseeable future. If the management is not able to increase revenue and manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the Company may not be able to achieve profitability.

 

The Company’s actions to improve operation efficiency, cost reduction, and enhance core cash-generating business include the following: seeking advances from the major shareholders, pursuing additional public and/or private issuance of securities, and looking for strategic business partners to optimize our operations.

 

We have considered whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our working capital deficit of $6,976,770, accumulated deficit of $5,060,951 and net losses incurred during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

In evaluating if there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, we have certain plans to mitigate these adverse conditions and increase the liquidity of the Company and are trying to alleviate the going concern risk through (1) increasing cash generated from operations by controlling operating expenses and increasing more live steaming e-commerce events to bring up e-commerce revenue, (2) financing from domestic banks and other financial institutions, and (3) equity or debt financing.

 

On an on-going basis, the Company will also receive financial support commitments from the Company’s related parties.

 

Our continued operations are highly dependent upon our ability to increase revenues and if needed complete equity and/or debt financing. However, if we are unable to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our planned operations and may be unable to repay debt obligations or respond to competitive market pressures, which will have a material adverse effect upon our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Under such circumstance, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our planned operations, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and ability to operate as a going concern.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,523,911 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $3,488,115 net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was mainly due to our net loss of $2,453,074, partially offset by the increase in amortization of prepaid expenses of $530,140, the increase in other receivable of $89,819, and the decrease in other payables of $190,772. The net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 was mainly due to our net loss of $6,237,655, partially offset by the increase in other receivable of $1,923,731, the increase in other payables of $1,239,466.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $10,820 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $79,289 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 was mainly attributable to purchase of property, plant and equipment. 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Principles

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires the Company’s 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results can, and in many cases will, differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting policies.

 

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

 

There is limited historical financial information about the Company on which to base an evaluation of its performance. There is no guarantee on the continued success in its business operations. The business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, a narrow client base, limited sources of revenue, and possible cost overruns due to the price and cost increases in supplies and services.

 

Without additional funding, management believes that the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations beyond one year after the date our condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has been, and intend to continue, working toward identifying and obtaining new sources of financing. To date it has been dependent on related parties for its source of funding. No assurances can be given that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing in the future. Any future financing that it may obtain may cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to Common Stock that it is able to obtain will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict its flexibility. Any failure to comply with these covenants would have a negative impact on its business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

29

 

 

If adequate funds are not available, it may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate portions of Zhuoxun Beijing’s operations or obtain funds through arrangements with strategic partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our assets. Accordingly, the inability to obtain such financing could result in a significant loss of ownership and/or control of our assets and could also adversely affect the Company’s ability to fund our continued operations and expansion efforts.

 

During the next 12 months, the Company expects to incur the same amount of expenses each month. However, as Zhuoxun Beijing works to expand its operations, it expects to incur significant research, marketing and development costs and expenses on Zhuoxun Beijing’s online service platforms that meet the constantly evolving industry standards and consumer demands.

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s former management abandoned all operations for several years, and only recently did the Company appoint new management to make filings with the SEC on behalf of the Company.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
