NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are the responsibility of the Company’s management. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. This disclosure should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2021, including footnotes, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K,
Organization
Hartford Great Health Corp. was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2008 under the name PhotoAmigo, Inc. It changed its name to Hartford Great Health Corp. on August 22, 2018 and since then we have been engaged in activities to formulate and implement our business plans.
Through its wholly owned subsidiary - Hangzhou Hartford Comprehensive Health Management, Ltd (“HZHF) and HZHF’s 60 percent owned subsidiary - Hangzhou Longjing Qiao Fu Vacation Hotel Co., Ltd. (“HZLJ”), and through Shanghai Hartford Comprehensive Health Management, Ltd. (“HFSH”) and its 90 percent owned subsidiary - Shanghai Qiao Garden International Travel Agency (“Qiao Garden Int’l Travel”), the Company engages in hospitality industry in China. Qiao Garden Int’l Travel was disposed on December 31, 2020, see note 4 Acquisitions, Joint Ventures and Deconsolidation.
The Company started to engage in early childhood education industry at Hartford International Education Technology Co., Ltd (“HF Int’l Education”). On July 24, 2019 and March 23, 2020, HF Int’l Education established two 100% owned subsidiaries, Pudong Haojin Childhood Education Ltd. (“PDHJ”) and Shanghai Hongkou HaiDeFuDe Childcare Co., Ltd.(“HDFD”), respectively, to operate the early childhood education service under the brand name of “HaiDeFuDe” in Shanghai, China. On July 20, 2020, HF Int’l Education entered an agreement with two individuals to acquire the whole ownership of Shanghai Gelinke Childcare Education Center (“Gelinke”). Gelinke temporally ceased its operations by the end of August 2021. On August 31, 2021, PDHJ established one 96% owned subsidiary, Shanghai HDFD Zhongli Education Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhongli”), two individual investors hold the remaining % ownership, see note 4 Acquisitions, Joint Ventures and Deconsolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hartford Great Health Corp, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries in which it has a controlling interest. The Company reports noncontrolling interests of the consolidated entities as a component of equity separate from the Company’s equity. All material inter-company transactions between and among the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company’s net income (loss) excludes income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interests.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, the identification and disclosure of impaired assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts on the prior-year consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations and cash flows were reclassified to conform to current-year presentation, with no effect on ending stockholders’ equity.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
The Tax Reform Act permanently reduces the U.S. corporate income tax rate to a flat 21% rate, effective January 1, 2018. In addition, the 2017 Tax Act also creates a new requirement that certain income (i.e., Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”)) earned by controlled foreign corporations (“CFCs”) must be included in the gross income of the CFCs’ U.S. shareholder income. The tax law in PRC applies an income tax rate of 25% to all enterprises. The Company’s subsidiary does not receive any preferential tax treatment from local government. The Company has been in loss position for years and zero amount of tax provisions, including GILTI. Deferred tax assets as of the reporting periods ended were fully reserved for valuation allowance as they are more likely than not to be realized.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606) on August 1, 2019, applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of August 1, 2019. The Company is building up its core business upon the completion of multiple acquisitions in 2019, limited operations occurred during the periods ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 impacted by COVID-19 pandemic.
Revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We follow the five steps approach for revenue recognition under Topic 606: (i) identify the 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 revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. Billings to customers for which services are not rendered are considered deferred revenue. ASC 606 has no material impacts on the Company’s financial positions. The Company’s revenue is recognized when it satisfies a single performance obligation by transferring control of its products or providing services to a customer. The Company’s general payment terms are short-term in duration. The Company does not have significant financing components or payment terms. The Company recorded $597,305 and $545,346 unsatisfied performance obligations and contract liabilities as of April 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.
a. | Early childhood education services: HF Int’l Education generates revenue from childhood education classes provided to its customers. The educational services consist of parent-child and bilingual childcare classes. Each contract of educational classes is accounted for as a single performance obligation which is satisfied proportionately over the service period. Tuition fee is generally collected in advance and is initially recorded as deferred revenue and transferred to contract liabilities after trial period. Refunds are provided to parents if they decide within the trial period that they no longer want to take the class. After the trial period, if a parent withdraws from a class, usually only that unearned portion of the fee is available to be returned. For the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, $151,930 and $98,313 respectively, of revenue were derived from early childhood education classes provided. For the nine months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, $476,842 and $233,499 respectively, of revenue were derived from early childhood education classes provided. | |
b. | Hospitality services: HZLJ generates revenue primarily from the room rentals, sale of food and beverage and other miscellaneous hospitality services. The Company recognizes room rental and services daily as services are provided. Under ASC 606, the pattern and timing of recognition of income from hotel facility is consistent with the prior accounting model. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and liquidity.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses”. The standard, including subsequently issued amendments (ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2019-11), requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost basis, such as accounts receivable and certain other financial assets, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 to postpone the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for public business entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies defined by the SEC to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of obligations in the normal course of business. However, Hartford Great Health Corp. has incurred losses since inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $7,318,415 as of April 30, 2022. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of Hartford Great Health Corp. to continue as a going concern.
In view of these matters, continuation as a going concern is dependent upon several factors, including the availability of debt or equity funding upon terms and conditions acceptable to Hartford Great Health Corp., and ultimately achieving profitable operations. Management believes that Hartford Great Health Corp.’s business plan provides it with an opportunity to continue as a going concern. However, management cannot provide assurance that Hartford Great Health Corp. will meet its objectives and be able to continue in operation.
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 classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of Hartford Great Health Corp. to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS, JOINT VENTURES AND DECONSOLIDATION
Joint Ventures
On March 22, 2019, HFSH entered into a joint venture agreement (the “JV agreement”) with Shanghai Jingyu Education Tech Ltd. (“SH Jingyu”) and one individual investor, to form a new entity - HF Int’l Education to provide childcare education services. HFSH initially owned 65.0% ownership of HF Int’l Education, and reduced to % during the year ended on July 31, 2020 because of equity transactions between noncontrolling shareholders. On June 19, 2020, the board of HF Int’l Education decided to increase registered capital to RMB10 million from RMB5 million, and three out of four noncontrolling shareholders gave up the subscription rights. .
Continuous operation losses caused by the market uncertainties including pandemic and government regulations, HF Int’l Education entered agreements to sell the copyrights of seven education textbooks and ten “HaiDeFuDe” registered trademarks owned for RMB1.2 million and RMB1.0 million, respectively, to Hartford Health Management (Shanghai) Co., Ltd (“HFHM”) in March 2021 with approval of the board of directors. The CEO of HFHM is a shareholder of the Company who owns more than 5% of the Company’s common stocks.
On August 31, 2021, PDHJ, one of HF Int’l Education’s wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a joint venture agreement with two individual investors, to form a new entity - Shanghai HDFD Zhongli Education Technology Co., Ltd.

NOTE 10. LEASES
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. Leases are classified as either finance leases or operating leases based on criteria in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842. Operating leases are included in ROU assets-Operating lease, Current Operating Lease liabilities and Operating lease liabilities, finance leases are included in Property and Equipment and Other Liabilities in the condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the lease did not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in China market. ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases, consisting of lease payments, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease expense for finance leases consists of the amortization of the ROU asset on a straight-line basis over the asset’s estimated useful life and interest expense is calculated using the amortized cost basis.
As of July 31, 2021, the Company has multiple operating leases for office spaces and a finance lease of land and hotel building. Our operating leases have remaining lease terms ranging from one year to five years, with various term extensions available. Our finance lease has remaining lease term of thirty years. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term operating leases that have a term of twelve months or less.
In July and September 2021, HF Int’l Education entered two sublease agreements to sublease some office spaces with two-year term. Amount of $38,222 and $126,807 were recognized as sublease income, included under other income, for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2022, respectively.
On September 1, 2020, Gelinke entered a -year new lease agreement at the original office location upon the completion of the acquisition. Approximately $1.2 million ROU and lease liability, respectively, were recognized with the new lease at lease commencement date. On August 15, 2021, an early termination agreement was entered to terminate this lease on August 30, 2021. As a result, approximately $1 million ROU and lease liability, respectively, associated with this lease as of July 31, 2021 were eliminated and $40,005 gain was recognized.
HZHF terminated its original office lease on January 6, 2021. Approximately $287,000 ROU and $258,000 lease liability associated with the original lease agreement were eliminated. On January 9, 2021, HFHZ entered into a two-year new lease with smaller space at the same location. Approximately $49,000 ROU and lease liability, respectively, were recognized with the new lease at lease commencement date. On December 10, 2021, an early termination agreement was entered to terminate this lease on December 30, 2021. As a result, approximately $27,000 ROU and lease liability, respectively, associated with this lease as of December 30, 2021 were eliminated.
The finance lease was obtained through HZLJ acquisition on March 22, 2019. On October 1, 2010, HZLJ took over the lease of the land and hotel building for 41 years. Finance lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

Overview of the Business
Hartford Great Health Corp. was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2008 under the name PhotoAmigo, Inc. It changed its name to Hartford Great Health Corp. on August 22, 2018 and since then we have been engaged in activities to formulate and implement our business plan as set forth below.

Management’s plans in regard to the factors prompting the explanatory paragraph are discussed in the financial statements, including footnotes thereto.
Plan of Operation
On December 28, 2018, the Company acquired Hangzhou Hartford Comprehensive Health Management, Ltd (“HZHF”). On March 22, 2019, the Company acquired 60 percent of Hangzhou Longjing Qiao Fu Vacation Hotel Co., Ltd. (“HZLJ”). On March 20, 2019, the Company acquired Shanghai Hartford Comprehensive Health Management, Ltd. (“HFSH”) with 90 percent of Shanghai Qiao Garden International Travel Agency (“Qiao Garden Int’l Travel”), which was disposed on December 31, 2020, and formed a joint venture entity, Hartford International Education Technology Co., Ltd (“HF Int’l Education”).
The subsidiary of HFUS in Shanghai (HFSH) advances operating funds from two related party entities, SH Qiao Hong and SH Oversea Chinese Culture Media Ltd. The main purpose of the funding is to invest in Hartford International Education Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (HF Int’l Education). Upon signing of supplemental agreement, HFUS currently holds 75.5% ownership of HF Int’l Education and maintains control over HF Int’l Education. On July 24, 2019, HF Int’l Education established a 100% owned subsidiary, Pudong Haojin Childhood Education Ltd. (“PDHJ”). On October 28, 2019, PDHJ had its childhood education center opened. On March 23, 2020, HF Int’l Education established Shanghai Hongkou HaiDeFuDe Childcare Co., Ltd.(“HDFD”) and was approved the business license to conduct childcare operations in Shanghai, China. On July 20, 2020, HF Int’l Education entered an agreement with two individuals to acquire the whole ownership of Shanghai Gelinke Childcare Education Center (“Gelinke”). During the board meeting, SH Jingyu and another noncontrolling shareholders also sold a total of 14.5% equity at zero value to HFSH. As a result, HFSH holds 90% of HF Int’l Education and a total of 10% equity is held by two individual noncontrolling shareholders.
HF Int’l Education has developed an enhanced model of childcare franchise management program and registered a new brand name, “HaiDeFuDe”. HF Int’l Education has recruited a team of knowledgeable childcare teachers to develop series of independent textbooks designed to targeted age of young children and register for the copyrights for these textbooks in September of 2020. Since then, HF Int’l Education has begun marketing and promoting the enhanced model of franchise operation and management packaged program, under “HaiDeFuDe” brand, to an initial of 50 franchisees throughout different regions of China. To achieve that, HF Int’l Education has incorporated existing market resources throughout other major cities and provinces in China. The promotion of HF Int’l Education franchise operation and management model is expected to attract other childcare education centers to join the “HaiDeFuDe” brand, and HF Int’l Education expects to generate revenue from franchise and management fees.
Due to continued market uncertainties during the pandemic, the board of HFSH adopted a new management approach to ease cash flow and reduce operation loss. In March 2021, HF Int’l Education entered agreements with a third party, Hartford Health Management (Shanghai), Co. Ltd. (“HFHM”). HFHM purchased seven education & intellectual property copy rights and ten “HaiDeFuDe” registered trademarks from HF Int’l Education for a total amount of RMB1.2M and RMB1.0M, respectively. In June 2021, HF Int’l Education and its three subsidiaries entered license agreements with HFHM for the rights to use the intellectual Properties (the “IPs”) HFHM owns. The IPs cover in the license agreements are four sets of curriculum structure designed and fifteen trademarks including “HaiDeFuDe” registered trademarks purchased from HF Int’l Education. As a return, on a monthly basis, HF Int’l Education and its subsidiaries pays 90% of its tuition revenue generated to HFHM as license usage fee.
After only some ease of restrictions from the recent Covid lockdown in Shanghai for over two months, the Company’s educational centers remain non-operational until further announcements from the government in regard to the dynamic changes in China’s Zero-Covid policy. The Company will need to re-evaluate the early child care educational market, pending the outcome of government policy. The Company expects to generate revenue about RMB3,200,000 in 2022.
