D. Risk Factors

SummaryRisk Factors

Our business is subject to a number of risks, including risks that may prevent us from achieving our business objectives or may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and prospects. These risks are discussed more fully below and include, but are not limited to, risks related to:

RisksRelated to Our Business and Industry

We<br> have a limited operating history in the rapidly evolving supply chain and financial services<br> industries, and any unforeseeable changes and uncertainties could adversely affect our operating<br> results and future prospects.
If<br> we are unable to innovate or respond effectively to the ever-changing financial technologies<br> and industry practice, our business and results of operations would be materially adversely<br> affected.
--- ---
We<br> rely on our cooperation with our customers and industry partners, and if our technology solutions<br> or services cannot meet the needs or expectations of customers and partners for any reason,<br> we could lose our established market share.
--- ---
We<br> are subject to evolving regulatory requirements, and if we fail to adapt to regulatory changes,<br> our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.
--- ---
Failure<br> to manage growth will cause disruption to our operations and impair our ability to generate<br> revenue.
--- ---
We<br> have modified our business models and had substantial strategic changes to our business operations,<br> and may be subject to additional risks and uncertainties as a result.
--- ---
We<br> cannot assure you that our growth strategies will be successful.
--- ---
Cyber-attacks<br> or any failure to adequately maintain data security and prevent unauthorized access to confidential<br> information could materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition and operating<br> results.
--- ---

RisksRelated to Doing Business in China

Adverse<br> changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse<br> effect on the overall economic growth of China and materially and adversely affect our competitive<br> position
Chinese<br> economic growth slowdown may have a negative effect on our business.
--- ---
We<br> may be classified as a “Resident Enterprise” of China, which would result in<br> unfavorable tax consequences.
--- ---
Uncertainties<br> with respect to the PRC legal system could adversely affect us.
--- ---
Shareholders<br> may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments,<br> including those obtained in the U.S., or bringing actions in China against us or our management<br> based on foreign laws.
--- ---

2

RisksRelated to Our Corporate Structure

If<br> the PRC government finds that the contractual arrangements that establish the structure for<br> operating our business do not comply with PRC laws and regulations, we could be subject to<br> severe consequences.
We<br> rely on our contractual arrangements with our consolidated affiliates and their shareholders<br> for business operations, which may not be as effective as direct ownership in providing operational<br> control.
--- ---
Shareholders<br> of VIEs may have potential conflicts of interest with us, which may materially and adversely<br> affect our business and financial condition.
--- ---
Our<br> VIE agreements may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities which may determine<br> that we or our consolidated affiliates owe additional taxes.
--- ---

RisksRelated to Ownership of Our Common Shares

We<br> are an “emerging growth company,” and the reduced reporting requirements applicable<br> to emerging growth companies may make our Class A common shares less attractive to investors.
British<br> Virgin Islands companies may not be able to initiate shareholder derivative actions, thereby<br> depriving shareholders of the ability to protect their interests.
--- ---
The<br> laws of the British Virgin Islands provide little protection for minority shareholders, and<br> minority shareholders will have little or no recourse if the shareholders are dissatisfied<br> with the conduct of our affairs.
--- ---
The<br> market price of our Class A common shares may be volatile or may decline regardless of our<br> operating performance, and shareholders may not be able to resell their shares.
--- ---
We<br> do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
--- ---

RisksRelated to Our Business and Industry

Wehave a limited operating history in the rapidly evolving supply chain and financial services industries, and any unforeseeable changesand uncertainties could adversely affect our operating results and growth prospects.

Financial technologies have brought dynamic and rapidly changes to the financial services and supply chain industries in China. The regulatory framework for those industries is also evolving and may remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. We provide technology-driven customized financing solutions to small- and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) (hereinafter referred to as “SME financing solutions”) and direct banking solutions to small- and mid-sized commercial banks (referred to as “direct banking solutions” or “other financing solutions”) in China. We commenced our financial service operations in 2019 after we acquired NiSun BVI and its subsidiaries and contractually controlled affiliates, Fintech (Shanghai) Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fintech”) and Beijing Hengtai Puhui Information Services Co., Ltd (“Hengpu”). We expanded our financial service operations following the acquisition of Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd.

In January 2020, we commenced our supply chain solutions service operations. Supply chain industry is at a relatively early stage of its development in China, and there are few established players with well-recognized business models that we can follow or build upon. In addition, we face uncertainties related to increased competition and a changing regulatory environment in China’s supply chain finance industry. As the financial services market dynamics, regulatory environment and our business continue to evolve, we may need to introduce new services from time to time or modify the existing business models. Any significant change to our existing business models may not achieve expected results and may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. It is therefore difficult to effectively assess the future prospects of our operations. Investors should consider our business and prospects based on such uncertainties that we encounter or may encounter in this fast-growing industry, including, but not limited to:

3

our<br> ability to adapt to the changing macroeconomic environment in China and around the world,<br> which may be influenced by a number of factors, such as geopolitical factors, global<br> financial market volatility and pandemics such as COVID-19;
our<br> ability to compete successfully with our industry peers, some of whom may have more resources<br> in the business than we do;
--- ---
our<br> response to changes in the regulatory environment;
--- ---
our<br> solutions to meet the changing needs of our customers and partners, including those resulting<br> from changes in the regulatory environment in which they operate;
--- ---
our<br> ability to maintain and strengthen our relationships with key stakeholders in the supply<br> chain finance industry, including, but not limited to, core enterprises and their suppliers,<br> as well as financial institutions;
--- ---
our<br> strategy to reach more core enterprises and financial institutions and increase the volume<br> of transactions that process commodity flows through our technology solutions;
--- ---
our<br> innovations and diversification of our solution products;
--- ---
improvement<br> of our operational efficiency;
--- ---
measures<br> to safeguard the security of our IT systems and confidentiality of the data we obtain<br> and use through our solutions and systems;
--- ---
ability<br> to attract, retain, and motivate talented employees;
--- ---
solutions<br> to potential litigation such as regulatory, intellectual property infringement, data<br> privacy, or other claims; and
--- ---
other<br> potential risks and uncertainties inherently associated with our industry and our operations;
--- ---

If we are unable to effectively address those identified and unknown risks and uncertainties, or fail to adapt to changes in the financial services industry, our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Ifwe are unable to innovate or respond effectively to ever-changing financial technologies and industry practice, our business and resultsof operations would be materially adversely affected.

The supply chain and SME financing markets in which we compete are subject to rapid and significant changes. Operating in the financial service industry requires cutting-edge technology to digitize supply chain finance processes and optimize payment cycles. We offer a wide range of solutions built upon our cutting-edge technologies such as AI, blockchain, big data, and cloud technology to digitize and optimize payment cycles throughout the supply chain procurement process. Innovation is key to improving our finance solution products and developing new technologies to meet ever-changing customer needs. If we fail to innovate or invest in technology innovation, our competitive position could be compromised, which in turn could have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

Our success will depend in part on our ability to adapt and respond to the technology changes in a timely and effective manner. It requires us to continue to invest significant resources to enhance our technology infrastructure and research and development efforts. Changes and developments in the supply chain finance industry may also require us to reevaluate our existing business models or financial solutions from time to time and make significant adjustments to our long-term strategy and business plans. We cannot assure you that we will succeed in implementing those initiatives. If we are unable to respond to technological developments or industry practices in a cost-effective manner, our business, financial position, and operating performance may be materially adversely affected.

Werely on our cooperation with our customers and industry partners, and if our technology solutions or services cannot meet the needs orexpectations of customers and partners for any reason, we could lose our established market share.

Our relationships with our customers and partners are critical to our success. We generate revenue primarily by providing financial services and technology solutions to our customers and partners for service fees. In our supply chain solutions business, much of our business depends on our relationships with core enterprises and financial institutions and their willingness to continue to work with us. Almost all of our customers apply a complex and rigorously screened bidding process in selecting their fintech solutions partners to address some of their most challenging yet frequently encountered problems. We have been successful in building trusted relationships with those core enterprises and financial institutions and believe we will continue to deliver satisfactory fintech solutions to those businesses. However our service agreements are usually non-exclusive in nature, and they may choose to use their in-house research and development capabilities or choose our competitors to develop their supply chain fintech platforms and solutions. We cannot guarantee our customers and industry partners will renew contracts with us on a long term basis or at all, nor can we be certain that the customer will not engage other third-party technology solution providers for their technical solution needs.

Our ability to maintain and expand our customer base and build long-term relationships with our partners also depends on a number of other factors, such as:

our<br> technologies and solutions to keep up with rapid technological change and the ability<br> to compete in the market;
our<br> adaptation to meet changing customer needs and expectations;

satisfaction<br> level of our customers and partners with the performance, customization and effectiveness<br> of our solutions and customer service;
--- ---
our<br> ability to accurately predict market trends and deliver attractive products and services<br> at a prices sensitive to market demands;

Our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected if our technology solutions or services cannot meet the needs or expectations of customers and partners, or our customers and partners opt for their in-house team or our competitors to provide them technology solutions.

Weare subject to evolving regulatory requirements, and if we fail to adapt to regulatory changes, our business and prospects may be materiallyand adversely affected.

Many aspects of our business, including the provision of internet information, consulting services to customers and banks, online publication services relating to financial product information, and financing solutions services, among others, are subject to supervision and regulation by various governmental authorities in China. In addition, as we continue to expand the solutions on our platform, we may be subject to new and more complex regulatory requirements. We are also required to comply with applicable laws and regulations in relevant jurisdictions to protect the privacy and security of our customers’ information. Legal and regulatory restrictions may delay, or possibly prevent, some of our solutions or services from being offered, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Violation of laws and regulations may also result in severe penalties, confiscation of illegal income, revocation of licenses and, under certain circumstances, criminal prosecution.

The PRC regulatory framework governing financial services and related technology services is evolving. New laws or regulations may be promulgated, which could impose new requirements or prohibitions that render our operations or our technologies non-compliant. In addition, due to uncertainties and complexities of the regulatory environment, we cannot assure you that regulators will interpret laws and regulations the same way we do, or that we will always be in full compliance with applicable laws and regulations. To remedy any violations, we may be required to modify our business models, solutions and technologies in ways that render our solutions less appealing. We may also become subject to fines or other penalties, or, if we determine that the requirements to operate in compliance are overly burdensome, we may elect to terminate potentially non-compliant operations. If those situations were to happen, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Failureto manage our growth could cause disruption to our operations, impair our ability to generate revenue and strain our operational andother resources.

Since 2019, our business has experienced significant growths through acquisitions and service solution diversification. Our growth strategy includes increasing market penetration of our existing products and services, enhancing our financial technologies, developing new products, and increasing the number of industries and customers we serve. Pursuing these strategies has resulted in, and will continue to result in substantial demands on our capital and operating resources. In particular, the management of our growth will require, among other things:

successful<br>integration of our existing operations and acquired businesses;
continued technology innovations<br> and R&D capability enhancement;
--- ---
stringent cost controls<br> and adequate replenishable liquidity;
--- ---
strengthening of financial<br> and risk controls;
--- ---
increased marketing, sales<br> and support activities; and
--- ---
retaining, training and<br> hiring qualified employees and professionals.
--- ---

If we are not able to manage our growth successfully, our business, financial condition and operating results would be materially and adversely affected.

Wehave modified our business models and had substantial strategic operational adjustments to our business as a result of changes in theregulatory mandates as well as our corporate reorganizations, and we may be subject to risks, uncertainties or potential liabilitiesassociated with our legacy business, products or services.

Given the complexities, uncertainties and changes in the laws, rules, regulations, policies and administrative measures governing our industries and business operations, we have modified our business models and practices in response to changes in regulatory requirements and our strategies. In addition, among historical financial service products some of our affiliated entities offered, they had ceased to facilitate certain financial intermediary services before being acquired by our Company as a result of the legal and policy changes in the PRC financial industry. In addition, in the normal course of business, legacy Xibolun Group that has been divested by us in 2020 may still be subject to challenges from PRC taxing authorities regarding the amounts of taxes due. Although Xibolun Group management believed it had paid all accrued taxes owed, PRC taxing authorities may take the position that Xibolun Group owed more taxes than it had paid and could hold us liable for any overdue taxes that may be levied despite that Xibolun Group is no longer a part of our consolidated group.

We are not aware any PRC authorities have imposed such liability or administrative penalties on us as of the date of this prospectus. Nevertheless, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to liabilities or regulatory penalties in connection with the historical products or services our affiliates previously offered. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published in a timely manner or at all) that may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of any violation of those policies and rules until notified by the relevant agencies, and we cannot assure you that our affiliates or disposed operations would not cause us to be subject to liabilities or administrative penalties even though the relevant products or operations had not been or no longer are associated with our Company. Any of such occurrence may materially and adversely affect our client relationship, reputation and business operations.

Wecannot assure you that our growth strategies will be successful or that we will not incur loss in the future.

We implement diversified and complimentary business strategies in pursuing our growth. However, many obstacles to our growth exist, including, but not limited to, increased competition from similar businesses, our ability to improve our products and product mix to realize the benefits of our solution services, unexpected costs and costs associated with marketing efforts. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully overcome such obstacles, increase market share or succeed in achieving our goals. Our inability to implement this internal growth strategy successfully may have a negative impact on our growth, future financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

6

In addition, we have incurred losses in the past. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate profits in the future. We may experience losses due to our continued investments in technology, talent, content, brand recognition, customer base expansion and other initiatives. Our profitability also depends on our ability to manage our costs and expenses. We intend to manage and control our costs and expenses as a proportion of our total revenues, but there can be no assurance that we will achieve this goal. Our ability to achieve and sustain profitability is affected by various other factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as changes in macroeconomic and regulatory environment or competitive dynamics in the industry. Accordingly, shareholders should not rely on our financial results of any prior period as an indication of our future performance.

Fromtime to time we may evaluate and pursue strategic investments or acquisitions, which could require significant management attention,disrupt our existing operations and adversely affect our financial results.

We may evaluate and consider strategic investments, combinations, acquisitions or alliances to expand our operations and further increase the value of our services to our customers. These transactions could be material to our financial condition and results of operations if consummated. If we are able to identify an appropriate business opportunity, we may not be able to successfully consummate the transaction or may be unable to obtain the benefits of such transaction.

Strategic investments or acquisitions will involve risks commonly encountered in business relationships, including:

difficulties<br> in integrating the operations, personnel, systems, data, technologies, rights, platforms, products and services of the acquired business;
inability<br> of the acquired technologies, products or businesses to achieve expected levels of revenue, profitability, productivity or other<br> benefits;
--- ---
difficulties<br> in retaining, training, motivating and integrating key personnel;
--- ---
diversion<br> of management’s time and resources from our daily operations;
--- ---
difficulties<br> in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies within the combined organizations;
--- ---
difficulties<br> in retaining relationships with customers, employees and suppliers of the acquired business;
--- ---
risks<br> of entering markets in which we have limited or no prior experience;
--- ---
assumption<br> of contractual obligations that contain terms that are not beneficial to us, require us to license or waive intellectual property<br> rights or increase our risk for liability;
--- ---
failure<br> to successfully further develop the acquired technology;
--- ---
liability<br> for activities of the acquired business before the acquisition, such as violations of laws, commercial disputes, tax liabilities<br> and other known and unknown liabilities;
--- ---
potential<br> disruptions to our ongoing businesses; and
--- ---
unexpected<br> costs and unknown risks and liabilities associated with strategic investments or acquisitions.
--- ---

We have made certain investments and acquisitions during the past year, including, for example, working with local partners in Shandong to establish our Tai’an subsidiary as a key holding and operational platform and acquiring Nami Cayman and its subsidiaries and operating affiliates to support the growth of our SME financing solution services. However, our investments and acquisitions may not be successful, may not benefit our business strategy, may not generate sufficient revenues to offset the associated acquisition costs or may not otherwise result in the intended benefits. In addition, we cannot assure you that any future investment in or acquisition of new businesses or technology will prove to be profitable or bring value to our shareholders.

COVID-19 pandemichad an adverse effect on some operations of our business and may have material impact on our future business operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted business operations of various industries, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. In the Spring of 2020, our operations were temporarily affected by travel restrictions, office closings, home quarantine, delays in project implementation, on-site work and business development, among others. For fiscal year 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material negative impact on the Company’s financial services business. However, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in material adverse effects on the Company’s discontinued equipment and engineering business. Employees had very limited access to Xibolun Group’s manufacturing facilities, and as a result, the Company experienced difficulty in providing manufacturing and installation services. In addition, some of the Company’s customers and suppliers experienced financial distress, delayed or defaulted on their payments, reduced the scale of their business, and suffered disruptions in their business, which in turn had caused further adverse impact on the equipment and engineering business.

After the Spring of 2020, the COVID outbreak in China has gradually been controlled and we also returned to normal operations. However, the pandemic could adversely affect our business and financial results in 2021 if any virus resurges cause significant disruptions to our operations or the business of our supply chain customers, logistics and service providers, and negative impact to the pricing of our products. We cannot predict the severity and duration of the impact from such resurgence, if any. If any new outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, or if government responses to outbreaks or potential outbreaks are severe or long-lasting, our business operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the deteriorating market outlook, the slowdown in regional and national economic growth, weakened liquidity and financial condition of our customers or other factors that we cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment, cause uncertainties in the regions where we conduct business, and could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Ifwe cannot compete effectively, our results of operations could suffer.

Competition in the SME financing industry has been intense, and increasingly more participants have also entered into the supply chain solutions market. Our competitors operate with different business models, have different cost structures or participate selectively in different markets. They may ultimately prove more successful or more adaptable to new regulatory, technological and other developments. Some of our current and potential competitors have significantly more financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do and may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their financial service platforms and customers. Our competitors may also have longer operating histories, more extensive customer bases, greater brand recognition and brand loyalty and broader partner relationships than us. Additionally, a current or potential competitor may acquire one or more of its existing competitors or form a strategic alliance with one or more of its competitors. Our competitors may be better at developing new products or services, responding faster to new technologies, or undertaking more extensive and effective marketing campaigns. If we are unable to compete with such companies and meet the need for innovation in the financial services industry, the demand for our financial services could stagnate or substantially decline, our financial services business could experience reduced revenues or fail to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance, any of which could harm our business and results of operations.

IfSME financial products traded on provincial or regional financial assets exchanges become restricted or prohibited, or if such financialassets exchanges are prohibited from listing exchange administered products, our results of operations and financial condition wouldbe materially and adversely affected.

We provide small-and mid-size enterprises with financing solution services in connection with the listing of their securities on the provincial or regional financial assets exchanges in the PRC. The PRC government has not adopted a regulatory framework governing such local exchanges or the listing, trading and distribution of exchange administered products. The local financial assets exchanges are established upon approval of the local governments, and the exchange administered products listed and traded on these exchanges are filed with and approved by local financial asset exchanges under the supervision of the offices of finance at the municipal and provincial levels. As a result, the major product types selected for distribution on such exchanges are dependent upon the local regulatory environment and policies. If any significant product types are discouraged by the local government authorities, our product portfolio, distribution services and related revenues may be negatively impacted.

8

In addition, although the local financial exchanges are regulated by the local government subject to the two prohibitive provisions issued by the State Council, we cannot guarantee that they would not be covered by the tightened national financial supervision system. If they are subject to approval or guidance of any national regulatory bodies, such as the People’s Bank of China, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory and Administration Committee, or the CSRC, these financial exchanges may be prohibited from listing certain or all of the products currently traded on such exchanges, or be prohibited from engaging in such listing and trading services. Under that circumstance, we may have to change our business model and as a result, our operating results from SME financing solution services would be materially and adversely affected.

Wedepend on our industry partners to derive a substantial portion of our revenues.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenues from our cooperation with industry partners, including state-owned enterprises in our supply chain finance operations, financial institutions underwriting our customers’ securities on the financial asset exchanges and commercial banks distributing various financial products. If we lose any of the product providers, sponsors or acquirers, or any of our partners significantly reduces its volume of business with us, our revenues and profitability would be substantially reduced if we are unable seek alternative partners on a timely basis, or at all. In addition, the product volume we source and distribute from specific product providers may vary from period to period, particularly because we are not the exclusive distributor for any particular product provider. Our dependence on our financial product providers, sponsors or acquirers may also adversely affect our ability to negotiate fee rates with our customers, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

Whilewe are not aware of any data breach in the past, cyber-attacks, computer viruses or any future failure to adequately maintain securityand prevent unauthorized access to electronic and other confidential information could result in a data breach which could materiallyadversely affect our reputation, financial condition and operating results.

The protection of our customers’, business partners’, our Company’s and employees’ data is critically important to us. Our customers, business partners, and employees expect we will adequately safeguard and protect their sensitive personal and business information. We have become increasingly dependent upon automated information technology processes. Improper activities by third parties, exploitation of encryption technology, data-hacking tools and discoveries and other events or developments may result in a future compromise or breach of our networks, payment terminals or other settlement systems. In particular, the techniques used by criminals to obtain unauthorized access to sensitive data change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target; accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventative measures. There can be no assurance that we will not suffer a criminal cyber-attack in the future, that unauthorized parties will not gain access to personal or business information or sensitive data, or that any such incident will be discovered in a timely manner.

We also face indirect technology, cybersecurity and operational risks relating to the third parties whom we work with to facilitate our business activities, including, among others, third-party online service providers who manage accounts for our customers and external cloud service provider. As a result of increasing consolidation and interdependence of technology systems, a technology failure, cyber-attack or other information or security breach that significantly compromises the systems of one entity could have a material impact on its counterparties. Any cyber-attack, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins or similar disruptions of such third-party service providers could adversely affect our operations and could result in misappropriation of funds of our customers.

Security breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity. If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in our technology infrastructure are exposed and exploited, our relationships with customers and cooperation partners could be severely damaged, we could incur significant liability and our business and operations could be adversely affected.

Anynegative publicity and allegations against us may adversely affect our brand and reputation, which may harm our ability to attract andretain customers and business partners and result in material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and prospects.

Negative publicity and allegations about us, our products and services or our financial results, including by short sellers or investment research firms, regardless of their veracity, may adversely damage our brand, public image and reputation, harm our ability to attract and retain customers and result in material adverse impact on our share price, business, results of operations and prospects. For example, on June 3, 2020, a short seller issued a report alleging that, among other things, the private placement we consummated in December 2019, Hengpu acquisition and Nami acquisition were undisclosed related party transactions which we failed to disclose. The trading price of our shares declined and a shareholder class action lawsuit was filed against us and some of our directors and senior executive officers with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York which is currently pending. While the findings and conclusions of the independent investigation conducted by the special counsel have refuted the relevant allegations set out in the short report, nevertheless our share price fluctuated after such negative publicity.

Theloss of any of our key customers could reduce our revenues and our profitability.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, three customers accounted for approximately 31%, 21% and 12% of the Company’s total revenue from financial service business. As of December 31, 2020, three customers accounted for approximately 45%, 20% and 17% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance. For the year ended December 31, 2019, one customer accounted for approximately 100% of our total financial services revenue and accounts receivable from the financial services.

We have not entered into long-term contracts with any of these major customers and instead rely on individual orders from such customers. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will maintain or improve the relationships with these customers, or that we will be able to continue to serve these customers at current levels or at all. As the majority of our revenues are driven by individual orders for services, our major customers often change each period based on when a given order is placed. Although long-term contracts do not exist in our industry and our customers often make orders repeatedly, if we cannot develop and maintain long-term relationships with major customers or replace major customers from period to period with equivalent customers, the loss of such sales could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Oursupply chain solutions services are capital driven operations, and if we cannot maintain the level of capital and funding sources neededto support our solutions services to our customers, our business would be harmed.

For our supply chain solutions services, we participate as an intermediary and a trading partner in the procurement and distribution transactions, automate the transaction payments and streamline the supply chain finance process. Such supply chain transactions are common for the commodity-based industry such as the agriculture, infrastructure and energy markets. As such, our supply chain solutions services may be considered capital intensive operations in the merchandise flows from the upstream procurement to the downstream distribution. Further, to remain competitive and enhance customer experience and the quality of our services, we need to make continued investment to develop new solution products and expand into new industries. Such endeavors carry risks, such as cost overruns, delays in delivery or lack of acceptance from our clients or partners. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient funds available to maintain the levels of funding or future investment required to support our products or innovations, and any delay in the delivery of new services or the failure to accurately predict and address market demand could render our services less desirable to our customers and cooperation partners. While we have made continued efforts to diversify revenue and funding sources, we cannot assure you that such efforts would be successful or could remain or become increasingly diversified in the future. If we become dependent on a small number of customers or funding sources, and any such entities decide not to collaborate with us, change the commercial terms to the extent unacceptable to us or limit the funding available on our platform, such constraints may materially limit our ability to serve our customers. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow may be materially and adversely affected.

10

OurPRC subsidiaries’ and consolidated affiliates’ books and records are prepared in accordance with China GAAP, not U.S. GAAP.

Substantially all of the business operations of the Company are located in Mainland China. Although Nisun International’s reports are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, our PRC subsidiaries’ books and records are prepared in accordance with China GAAP. Despite our efforts to improve the Company’s controls and procedures, our accounting personnel do not have sufficient knowledge, experience and training in maintaining our books and records in accordance with U.S. GAAP standards. This has required us to obtain help to assist in the preparation of our financial statements for U.S. GAAP reporting until we are capable of doing internally. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm the value of our shares.

Weare substantially dependent upon our senior management and key information technology and development personnel.

We are highly dependent on our senior management to manage our business and operations and our key research and development personnel for the development of new products and the enhancement of our existing products and technologies. In particular, we rely substantially on members of our senior management, including Chief Executive Officer, Xiaoyun Huang, Chief Financial Officer, Changjuan Liang, and senior executives of Fintech, Hengpu and Nami to manage our operations.

While we provide the legally required personal insurance for the benefit of our employees, we do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our senior management or key personnel. The loss of any one of them would have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. Competition for senior management and our other key personnel is intense and the pool of suitable candidates is limited. We may be unable to locate a suitable replacement for any senior management or key personnel that we lose. In addition, if any member of our senior management or key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, they may compete with us for customers, business partners and other key professionals and staff members of our Company. Although each of our senior management and key personnel has signed a confidentiality agreement in connection with their employment with us, we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully enforce these provisions in the event of a dispute between us and any member of our senior management or key personnel.

We compete for qualified personnel with other technology companies and research institutions. Intense competition for these personnel could cause our compensation costs to increase, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Our future success and ability to grow our business will depend in part on the continued service of these individuals and our ability to identify, hire and retain additional qualified personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified employees, we may be unable to meet our business and financial goals.

Weare heavily dependent upon the services of experienced personnel who possess skills that are valuable in our industry, and we may haveto actively compete for their services.

We are heavily dependent upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled personnel to serve our customers. Many of our personnel possess skills that would be valuable to all companies engaged in our industry. Consequently, we expect that we will have to actively compete for these employees. Some of our competitors may be able to pay our employees more than we are able to pay to retain them. Our ability to profitably operate is substantially dependent upon our ability to locate, hire, train and retain our personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our current personnel, or that we will be able to attract and assimilate other personnel in the future. If we are unable to effectively obtain and maintain skilled personnel, the development and quality of our services could be materially impaired. See “Our Employees.”

Ifwe fail to protect our intellectual property rights, it could harm our business and competitive position.

We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and non-disclosure agreements and other methods to protect our intellectual property rights. Our affiliated entities own a number of trademarks in China, all of which have been properly registered with regulatory agencies such as the State Intellectual Property Office and Trademark Office. This intellectual property has allowed our products to earn market share in the financial services and supply chain solutions industries.

11

We also rely on trade secret rights to protect our business through non-disclosure agreements with certain employees. If any of our employees breach their non-disclosure obligations, we may not have adequate remedies in China, and our trade secrets may become known to our competitors. In accordance with Chinese intellectual property laws and regulations, we will have to renew our trademarks once the terms expire.

Implementation of PRC intellectual property-related laws has historically been lacking, primarily because of ambiguities in the PRC laws and enforcement difficulties. Accordingly, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other western countries. Furthermore, policing unauthorized use of proprietary technology is difficult and expensive, and we may need to resort to litigation to enforce or defend our intellectual property rights, or to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of our proprietary rights or those of others. Such litigation and an adverse determination in any such litigation, if any, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention, which could harm our business and competitive position.

Wemay be exposed to intellectual property infringement and other claims by third parties which, if successful, could disrupt our businessand have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to use and develop our technology and know-how without infringing third party intellectual property rights. As litigation concerning intellectual property has become more common in China, we face a higher risk of being the subject of claims for intellectual property infringement, invalidity or indemnification relating to other parties’ proprietary rights. Our current or potential competitors, many of which have substantial resources and have made substantial investments in competing technologies, may have or may obtain intellectual property rights that will prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to use or sell our products in either China or other countries, including the United States. In addition, the defense of intellectual property suits, including patent infringement suits, and related legal and administrative proceedings can be both costly and time consuming and may significantly divert the efforts and resources of our technical and management personnel. Furthermore, an adverse determination in any such litigation or proceedings to which we may become a party could cause us to:

pay damage awards;
seek licenses from third<br> parties;
--- ---
pay ongoing royalties;
--- ---
redesign our products;<br> or
--- ---
be restricted by injunctions,
--- ---

each of which could effectively prevent us from pursuing some or all of our business and result in our customers or potential customers deferring or limiting their purchase or use of our branded products, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Ourbrands or reputation and the reputation of the financial service industry may materially and adversely be affected by factors outsideof its control.

Enhancing the recognition and reputation of the brands of our financial services is critical to its business and competitiveness. Factors that are important to this objective include but are not limited to its ability to:

maintain the quality and<br> reliability of our technology platform;
provide financial institutions,<br> corporate and individual customers and industry partners with a superior client service experience;
--- ---
maintain accurate financial<br> product matching and asset management tools and decision-making models;
--- ---
effectively manage and<br> resolve any customer questions or concerns; and
--- ---
effectively protect personal<br> information and privacy of customers and industry partners.
--- ---

12

Any negative publicity by the media or other parties about the foregoing or other aspects of our services, including but not limited to our management, business, compliance with laws, whether with merit or not, could severely hurt its reputation and harm its business and operating results.

Certain factors that may adversely affect our reputation are beyond our control. Negative publicity about our industry partners, service providers or other counterparties, such as negative publicity about their revenue generating practices and any failure by them to adequately protect the information of their investors, to comply with applicable laws and regulations or to otherwise meet required quality and service standards could harm the reputation of our financial services model working with those industry partners. Furthermore, any negative development in the financial services industry, such as bankruptcies or failures of other financial technology platforms, or negative perception of the industry as a whole, such as that arises from any failure of other financial advisory service providers or their technology platforms to detect or prevent money laundering or other illegal activities, even if factually incorrect or based on isolated incidents, could compromise our image, undermine the trust and credibility we have established and have a negative impact on our ability to attract new customers. Negative developments in the financial services industry, such as fraudulent behavior and/or the closure of other financial service platforms, may also lead to tightened regulatory scrutiny of the industry and limit the scope of permissible business activities that may be conducted by the industry participants. If any of the foregoing were to occur, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Ouroperations depend on the performance of the internet infrastructure and fixed telecommunications networks in China.

Almost all access to the internet in China is maintained through state-owned telecommunication operators under the administrative control and regulatory supervision of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or the MIIT. We reoly on a limited number of telecommunication service providers to provide us with data communications capacity through local telecommunications lines and internet data centers to host our servers. We have limited access to alternative networks or services in the event of disruptions, failures or other problems with China’s internet infrastructure or the fixed telecommunications networks provided by telecommunication service providers. With the expansion of our business, we may be required to upgrade our technology and infrastructure to keep up with the increasing traffic on our digital technology systems and platform. We cannot assure you that the internet infrastructure and the fixed telecommunications networks in China will be able to support the demands associated with the continued growth in internet usage.

In addition, we have no control over the costs of the services provided by telecommunication service providers. If the prices we pays for telecommunications and internet services rise significantly, our results of operations may be adversely affected. Furthermore, if internet access fees or other charges to internet users increase, our user traffic may decline and our business may be harmed.

Weface risks related to health pandemics or disease outbreaks.

In general, our business could be adversely affected by the effects of pandemic, including but not limited to, the COVID-19, avian influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), the influenza A virus, Ebola virus, or other outbreaks. In response to an pandemic, government and other organizations may adopt regulations and policies that could lead to severe disruptions to our daily operations, including temporary closure of our offices and other facilities. These severe conditions may cause us and/or our suppliers and customers to make internal adjustments, including but not limited to, temporarily closing down our business, limiting business hours, and setting restrictions on travel and/or visits with clients and suppliers for a prolonged period of time. Various impacts arising from a severe condition may cause business disruption, resulting in a material, adverse impact to our financial condition and results of operations.

Substantially all of our revenues and our workforce are concentrated in the PRC. Consequently, our results of operations will likely be adversely, and may be materially, affected, to the extent that the COVID-19 or any other pandemic harms the Chinese and global economy in general. Any potential impact to our results will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and severity of the health pandemics and the actions taken by government authorities and other entities to contain the health pandemics or alleviate its impact, almost all of which are beyond our control. Potential impacts include, but are not limited to, the following:

temporary<br>closure of offices, travel restrictions or suspension of services of our customers and suppliers have negatively affected, and<br>could continue to negatively affect, the demand for our services;

13

our<br>customers that are negatively impacted by the outbreak of health pandemics, may reduce their budgets on equipment and engineering<br>projects or delay the progress of the related projects or have less demands on our financial service which may materially adversely<br>impact our revenue;
our<br>customers may require additional time to pay us or fail to pay us at all, which could significantly increase the amount of accounts<br>receivable and require us to record additional allowances for doubtful accounts, which may in turn adversely affect our financial<br>condition and operating results; and
--- ---
any<br>disruption of our supply chains, logistics providers or customers could adversely impact our business and results of operations,<br>including causing our subcontractors to temporarily cease operation for a period of time, which may also lead to delayed project<br>progress and business harm to us;
--- ---

Because of the possible future uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19, the financial impact related to the pandemic of and response cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. There is no guarantee that our total revenues will grow or remain at the similar level year-over-year in the future. We may have to record downward adjustments, if conditions have not been significantly improved and global stock markets have not recovered from recent declines.

RisksRelated to Doing Business in China

Adversechanges in political climate and economic policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economicgrowth of China and materially and adversely affect our competitive position.

Substantially all of our business operations are conducted in China. Our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects are subject to economic, political and legal developments in China. Although the Chinese economy is no longer a planned economy, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over China’s economic growth through direct allocation of resources, monetary and tax policies, and a host of other government policies such as those that encourage or restrict investment in certain industries by foreign investors, control the exchange between RMB and foreign currencies, and regulate the growth of the general or specific market. This government involvements has been instrumental in China’s significant growth in the past 30 years. In response to the global and Chinese economic downturns, the PRC government has adopted policy measures aimed at stimulating the economic growth in China. If the PRC government’s current or future policies fail to help the Chinese economy achieve further growth or if any aspect of the PRC government’s policies limits the growth of our industry or otherwise negatively affects our business, our growth rate or strategy and our results of operations could be adversely affected as a result.

Chineseeconomic growth slowdown may have a negative effect on our business.

Since 2014, Chinese economic growth has been slowing down from double-digit GDP speed. The annual rate of growth declined from 7.3% in 2014 to 6.9% in 2015, to 6.7% in 2016, to 6.9% in 2017, to 6.6% in 2018, and to 6.1% in 2019. Due to the impact of COVID-19, China’s economic growth rate in 2020 has slowed to 2.3%, its lowest level in years. While technology-based financial services companies have not been affected by the pandemic on the same level as companies in certain other industries, nevertheless a slow economic growth could adversely affected many of our customers and partners, which in turn may materially adversely affected our financial condition and results of operations.

Underthe Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a “Resident Enterprise” of China. Such classification will likelyresult in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.

China passed an Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”) and implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise.

14

On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation of China issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or the Notice, further interpreting the application of the EIT Law and its implementation to offshore entities controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group will be classified as a “non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise” if (i) its senior management in charge of daily operations reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or persons in China; (iii) its substantial assets and properties, accounting books, corporate stamps, board and stockholder minutes are kept in China; and (iv) at least half of its directors with voting rights or senior management are often resident in China. A resident enterprise would be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC stockholders.

Nisun International does not have a PRC enterprise or enterprise group as its primary controlling shareholder and is therefore not a Chinese-controlled offshore incorporated enterprise within the meaning of the Notice, so we believe the Notice is not applicable to us. However, in the absence of guidance specifically applicable to us, we have applied the guidance set forth in the Notice to evaluate the tax residence status of Nisun International.

We do not believe that we meet some of the conditions outlined. As a holding company, the key assets and records of Nisun International including the resolutions and meeting minutes of our board of directors and the resolutions and meeting minutes of our shareholders, are located and maintained outside the PRC. In addition, we are not aware of any offshore holding companies with a corporate structure similar to ours that have been deemed a PRC “resident enterprise” by the PRC tax authorities. Accordingly, we believe that Nisun International should not be treated as a “resident enterprise” for PRC tax purposes if the criteria for “de facto management body” as set forth in the Notice were deemed applicable to us. However, as the tax residency status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body” as applicable to our offshore entities, we will continue to monitor our tax status.

If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Currently, we do not have any non-China source income, so this would have minimal effect on us; however, if we develop non-China source income in the future, we could be adversely affected. Second, under the EIT Law and its implementing rules, dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income.” Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares.

If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by the PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, but our PRC source income will not be taxed in the U.S. again because the U.S.-China tax treaty will avoid double taxation between these two nations.

Uncertaintieswith respect to the PRC legal system could adversely affect us.

We conduct all of our business through our subsidiaries in China. Our operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws and regulations applicable to wholly foreign-owned enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.

Since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions and their nonbinding nature, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

15

Shareholdersmay experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments, including those obtained in the U.S.,or bringing actions in China against us or our management based on foreign laws.

We are a holding company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. We conduct substantially all of our operations in China and substantially all of our assets are located in China. In addition, all our key employees and all, but one, directors are PRC residents and reside within China. As a result, it may be difficult for our shareholders to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside mainland China, including our management. In addition, China does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the British Virgin Islands and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions, including the U.S., in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

PRCregulation of loans and direct investment by offshore holding companies in PRC entities may delay or prevent us from using the proceedsof our securities offerings to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC operating subsidiaries, which could materiallyand adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

In utilizing proceeds of our securities offerings, we may make loans to our PRC subsidiaries, or we may make additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries.

Any loans to our PRC subsidiaries are subject to PRC regulations. For example, loans by us to our subsidiaries in China, which are FIEs, to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE. Currently, China is holding more open and tolerant attitude toward FIEs. More open rules and regulations are published in recent years to replace previous ones which are more restrictive. On March 30^th^, 2015, SAFE promulgated Circular 19 which is about Reformingthe Management Approach regarding the Settlement of Foreign Exchange Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises) and effective since June 1, 2015. Circular 19 has made some important changes in rules regarding the conversion of foreign exchanges to RMB, which are as follows in particular:

(1) Instead of the payment-based<br> exchange settlement system under previous Circular 142 and Circular 88, new rules of discretional foreign exchange settlement have<br> been established, which means the foreign exchange capital in the capital account of foreign-invested enterprises for which the confirmation<br> of rights and interests of monetary contribution by the local foreign exchange bureau (or the book-entry registration of monetary<br> contribution by the banks in accordance with Circular 13 as we mentioned in the comment below) has been handled can be settled at<br> the banks based on the actual operational needs of the enterprises, and the proportion of foreign exchange which can be discretionally<br> converted by each FIE is temporarily determined as 100% (SAFE may adjust such scale as necessary). So regulation wise FIEs no longer<br> needs to report the use of its RMB before or after a conversion which are required by previous Circular 142 and Circular 88. However,<br> actually SAFE and the banks are experiencing a transitional period in this regard, so for the time being, most banks still need the<br> FIEs to report their proposed use of the RMB to be converted from foreign exchanges, as well as the actual use of the RMB obtained<br> in the last conversion. Certainly, the transitional period will not be too long and therefore optimistically from the year of 2016,<br> the report obligation will no longer be required.
(2) Foreign currency-denominated<br> capital no longer needs to be verified by an accounting firm before converting into RMB.
--- ---
(3) As stipulated in Circular<br> 19, the use of capital by FIEs shall follow the principles of authenticity and self-use within the business scope of enterprises,<br> shall not be used for the following purposes:
--- ---
a) it shall not be directly<br> or indirectly used for the payment beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by national laws and regulations;
--- ---
b) it shall not be directly<br> or indirectly used for investment in securities unless otherwise provided by laws and regulations;
--- ---
c) it shall not be directly<br> or indirectly used for granting the entrust loans in RMB (unless permitted by the scope of business), repaying the inter-enterprise<br> borrowings (including advances by the third party) or repaying the bank loans in Renminbi that have been sub-lent to the third party;<br> and
--- ---

16

d) it shall not be used for<br> paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate not for self-use, except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises.

On May 10, 2013, SAFE released Circular 21, which came into effect on May 13, 2013; also, on February 13, 2015 SAFE published Circular 13 (Circularof the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Further Simplifying and Improving the Direct Investment-related Foreign Exchange AdministrationPolicies) to update some measures stipulated in Circular 21. According to Circular 21, SAFE has significantly simplified the foreign exchange administration procedures with respect to the registration, account openings and conversions, settlements of FDI-related foreign exchange, as well as fund remittances. Meanwhile, Circular 13 has further simplified foreign exchange administration procedures, most important among which is that SAFE delegated foreign exchange registration to the banks, meanwhile the related registration approval by SAFE has been annulled.

Even with more and more open policy toward FDI and FIEs, the Circulars mentioned above may still have some limit our ability to convert, transfer and use the net proceeds from our securities offerings and any offering of additional equity securities in China, which may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in the PRC.

We may also decide to finance our subsidiaries by means of capital contributions. These capital contributions must be approved by the Ministry of Commerce of China, or MOFCOM, or its local counterpart. We may not be able to obtain these government approvals on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future capital contributions by us to our PRC subsidiaries. If we fail to receive such approvals, we will not be able to use the proceeds of our offerings and capitalize our PRC operations, which could adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Laborlaws in the PRC may adversely affect our results of operations.

On June 29, 2007, the PRC government promulgated a new labor law, namely, the Labor Contract Law of the PRC, which became effective on January 1, 2008, which was further amended on December 28, 2012 (effective July 1, 2013). The Labor Contract Law imposes greater liabilities on employers and significantly affects the cost of an employer’s decision to reduce its workforce. Further, it requires certain terminations be based upon seniority and not merit. In the event we decide to significantly change or decrease our workforce, the Labor Contract Law could adversely affect our ability to enact such changes in a manner that is most advantageous to our business or in a timely and cost-effective manner, thus materially and adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations. The Labor Contract Law also mandates that employers provide social welfare packages to all employees, increasing our labor costs. To the extent competitors from outside China are not affected by such requirements, we could be at a competitive disadvantage.

Governmentalcontrol of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current corporate structure, our income will currently only be derived from dividend payments from our PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our security-holders.

Fluctuationsin exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.

Changes in the value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar, Euro and other foreign currencies are affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and financial condition, and the value of, and any dividends payable on our shares in U.S. dollar terms. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from our securities offerings into RMB for our operations, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on RMB amount we would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of paying dividends on our common shares or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us. In addition, fluctuations of the RMB against other currencies may increase or decrease the cost of imports and exports, and thus affect the price-competitiveness of our products against products of foreign manufacturers or products relying on foreign inputs.

Since July 2005, the RMB is no longer pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

We reflect the impact of currency translation adjustments in our financial statements under the heading “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we had foreign currency translation gain of $5.5 million, foreign currency loss of $1.8 million and foreign currency translation gain of $2.2 million, respectively. Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange gains and losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

PRCregulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident shareholdersto penalties and limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distributeprofits to us, or otherwise adversely affect us.

The SAFE promulgated the Notice on Relevant Issues Relating to Domestic Resident’s Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, or Notice 37, in July 2014 that requires PRC residents or entities to register with SAFE or its local branch in connection with their establishment or control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing. In addition, such PRC residents or entities must update their SAFE registrations when the offshore special purpose vehicle undergoes material events relating to material change of capitalization or structure of the PRC resident itself (such as capital increase, capital reduction, share transfer or exchange, merger or spin off). On October 16, 2015, 9 of our shareholders who are Chinese residents completed the registration with SAFE under this Notice.

Failureto comply with the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules relating to the overseas direct investment or the engagement in the issuance ortrading of securities overseas by our PRC resident stockholders may subject such stockholders to fines or other liabilities.

Other than Notice 37, our ability to conduct foreign exchange activities in the PRC may be subject to the interpretation and enforcement of the Implementation Rules of the Administrative Measures for Individual Foreign Exchange promulgated by SAFE in January 2007 (as amended and supplemented, the “Individual Foreign Exchange Rules”). Under the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules, any PRC individual seeking to make a direct investment overseas or engage in the issuance or trading of negotiable securities or derivatives overseas must make the appropriate registrations in accordance with SAFE provisions. PRC individuals who fail to make such registrations may be subject to warnings, fines or other liabilities.

We may not be fully informed of the identities of all our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. For example, because the investment in or trading of our shares will happen in an overseas public or secondary market where shares are often held with brokers in brokerage accounts, it is unlikely that we will know the identity of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. Furthermore, we have no control over any of our future beneficial owners and we cannot assure you that such PRC residents will be able to complete the necessary approval and registration procedures required by the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules.

18

It is uncertain how the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules will be interpreted or enforced and whether such interpretation or enforcement will affect our ability to conduct foreign exchange transactions. Because of this uncertainty, we cannot be sure whether the failure by any of our PRC resident stockholders to make the required registration will subject our PRC subsidiaries to fines or legal sanctions on their operations, delay or restriction on repatriation of proceeds of our securities offerings into the PRC, restriction on remittance of dividends or other punitive actions that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Thereare uncertainties under the PRC laws relating to the procedures for U.S. regulators to investigate and collect evidence from companieslocated in the PRC.

Shareholder claims that are common in the U.S., including securities law class actions and fraud claims, among other matters, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States have not been efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which became effective in March 2020, or Article 177, the securities regulatory authority of the State Council may collaborate with securities regulatory authorities of other countries or regions in order to monitor and oversee cross border securities activities. Article 177 further provides that overseas securities regulatory authorities are not permitted to carry out investigation and evidence collection directly within the territory of the PRC, and that any Chinese entities and individuals are not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to overseas agencies without prior consent of the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council.

Our principal business operations are conducted in the PRC. In the event that the U.S. regulators carry out investigations with respect to our business and need to conduct investigation or collect evidence within the territory of the PRC, the U.S. regulators may not be able to carry out such investigation or evidence collection directly in the PRC under the PRC laws. The U.S. regulators may consider cross-border cooperation with securities regulatory authority of the PRC by way of judicial assistance, diplomatic channels or regulatory cooperation mechanism established with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC. However, there can be no assurance that the U.S. regulators could succeed in establishing such cross-border cooperation in a specific case or could establish the cooperation in a timely manner. If U.S. regulators are unable to conduct such investigations, such U.S. regulators may determine to suspend and ultimately delist our common shares from the Nasdaq Capital Market or choose to suspend or de-register our SEC registration.

Newlyenacted Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, recent regulatory actions taken by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting OversightBoard, or the PCAOB, and proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq calling for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied toChina-based public companies could add uncertainties to our capital raising activities and compliance costs.

In April 2020, the SEC then-Chairman, Jay Clayton, and PCAOB Chairman, William D. Duhnke III, along with other senior SEC staff, released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or have substantial operations in emerging markets including China. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

In May 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market”, such as China, (ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or board of director for Restrictive Market companies, and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditors.

In May 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCAA” or the “Act”) requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOB inspection. If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s auditors for three consecutive years, the issuer’s securities are prohibited to trade on a national exchange.

19

In August 2020, the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets (“PWG”) issued a Report on Protecting United States Investors from Significant Risks from Chinese Companies. The Report made five recommendations designed to address risks to investors in U.S. financial markets posed by the Chinese government’s failure to allow audit firms that are registered with the PCAOB to comply with U.S. securities laws and investor protection requirements. Among the recommendations was advice to enhance the listing standards of U.S. exchanges to require, as a condition of initial and continued exchange listing, PCAOB access to main auditor work papers either directly or through co-audits.

On December 2, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the HFCAA. On December 18, the HFCAA was signed into law. Among other things, the HFCAA amends the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to require the SEC to prohibit the securities of foreign companies from being traded on U.S. securities markets, if the company retains a foreign accounting firm that cannot be inspected or investigated completely by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, beginning in 2021. The Act also requires foreign companies to make certain disclosures about their ownership by governmental entities. The HFCAA requires the SEC to issue new rules within 90 days of the enactment to implement the Act.

In a statement issued on December 18, 2020, the SEC then-Chairman Clayton observed that the SEC staff’s proposal in response to the PWG’s recommendations would substantially overlap with the Act. As a result, Clayton indicated that he had directed the SEC staff to consider providing a single consolidated proposal for the SEC’s consideration on issues related to the PCAOB’s access to audit work papers, exchange listing standards, and trading prohibitions.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final amendments to implement congressionally mandated submission and disclosure requirements of the HFCAA. The interim final amendments will apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report on Forms 10-K and 20-F and other forms with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB has determined it is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in that jurisdiction. The SEC will implement a process for identifying such a registrant and any such identified registrant will be required to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in that foreign jurisdiction, and will also require disclosure in a company’s annual report regarding the audit arrangements of, and governmental influence on, such a registrant.

The lack of access to the audit work paper or other inspections prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of those accounting firms’ audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections.

Our independent registered public accounting firm that issued the audit reports incorporated by reference elsewhere in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess our auditor’s compliance with the applicable professional standards. Our auditor is based on the U.S. and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. However, the recent U.S. legislative and regulatory developments as related to PRC companies listing or seeking to list stock on U.S. exchanges would add uncertainties to the trading and price volatility of our common shares and this ATM offering. We cannot be certain whether SEC, Nasdaq or other U.S. regulatory authorities would apply additional and more stringent criteria to us after considering the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, geographic reach, or sufficiency of resources as it relates to the audit of our financial statements.

Additionalfactors outside of our control related to doing business in China could negatively affect our business.

Additional factors that could negatively affect our business include a potential significant revaluation of the Renminbi, which may result in an increase in the cost of commodity or products in the PRC supply chain industry, labor shortages and increases in labor costs in China as well as difficulties in moving products manufactured in China out of the country, whether due to infrastructure inadequacy, labor disputes, slowdowns, PRC regulations and/or other factors. Prolonged disputes or slowdowns can negatively impact both the time and cost of goods. Natural disasters or health pandemics impacting China can also have a significant negative impact on our business. Further, the imposition of trade sanctions or other regulations against products supplied or sold in the supply chain industry transactions for which we provide solutions or the loss of “normal trade relations” status with China could significantly affect our operating results and harm our business.

RisksRelated to Our Corporate Structure

Ifthe PRC government finds that the contractual arrangements that establish the structure for operating our business do not comply withPRC laws and regulations, or if these regulations or their interpretations change in the future, we could be subject to severe penaltiesor be forced to relinquish our interests in those operations.

Foreign ownership of internet-based businesses, such as distribution of online information, is subject to restrictions under current PRC laws and regulations. For example, foreign investors are not allowed to own more than 50% of the equity interests in a value-added telecommunication service provider (except e-commerce) and any such foreign investor must have experience in providing value-added telecommunications services overseas and maintain a good track record in accordance with the Special Administrative Measures (Negative List) for Foreign Investment Access (2020 Edition) issued on June 23, 2020 and effective on July 23, 2020, by the National Development and Reform Commission, or the NDRC, and the PRC Ministry of Commerce, and other applicable laws and regulations.

We are a British Virgin Islands company. To comply with PRC laws and regulations, we conduct our financing solutions and supply chain service operations in China through a series of contractual arrangements entered into between our subsidiaries and VIEs and shareholders of the VIEs. As a result of these contractual arrangements, we exert control over VIEs and their subsidiaries and consolidate the VIEs’ operating results in our financial statements under U.S. GAAP. We believe our current ownership structure and the contractual arrangements among our subsidiaries, VIEs and the shareholders of the VIEs are not in violation of existing PRC laws, rules and regulations; and those contractual arrangements are valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their terms and applicable PRC laws and regulations currently in effect. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current or future PRC laws and regulations and there can be no assurance that the PRC government will ultimately take a view that is consistent with our opinion.

It is uncertain whether any new PRC laws, rules or regulations relating to variable interest entities structures will be adopted or if adopted, what they would provide. In particular, in January 2015, the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, published a discussion draft of the proposed Foreign Investment Law for public review and comments. Among other things, the draft Foreign Investment Law expands the definition of foreign investment and introduces the principle of “actual control” in determining whether a company is considered a foreign-invested enterprise, or an FIE. Under the draft Foreign Investment Law, variable interest entities would also be deemed as FIEs, if they are ultimately “controlled” by foreign investors, and be subject to restrictions on foreign investments. In December 2018, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress published a discussion draft of a new proposed Foreign Investment Law, aiming to replace the major existing laws governing foreign direct investment in China. On January 29, 2019, the discussion draft with slight revisions, or the New Draft Foreign Investment Law, was submitted for review. Pursuant to the New Draft Foreign Investment Law, foreign investments shall be subject to the negative list management system. However, the New Draft Foreign Investment Law does not mention “actual control” as regulated in the previous draft and the position to be taken with respect to the existing or future companies with the “variable interest entities” structure. On March 15, 2019, the Foreign Investment Law of the People’s Republic of China, or the Final Foreign Investment Law, with slight revision, was finally issued and became effective on January 1, 2020.

Although variable interest entities structures are not included in the Final Foreign Investment Law, it is uncertain whether any interpretation and implementation of the Final Foreign Investment Law or new PRC laws, rules or regulations relating to variable interest entities structures will be adopted or if adopted, what they would provide. If the ownership structure, contractual arrangements and business of our PRC subsidiary or its consolidated VIEs are found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws or regulations, or our PRC subsidiary fails to obtain or maintain any of the required permits or approvals, the relevant governmental authorities would have broad discretion in dealing with such violation, including levying fines, confiscating its income or the income of its PRC subsidiary or consolidated variable interest entities, revoking the business licenses or operating licenses of its PRC subsidiary or consolidated variable interest entities, discontinuing or placing restrictions or onerous conditions on its operations, requiring our PRC operations to undergo a costly and disruptive restructuring and taking other regulatory or enforcement actions that could be harmful to our business. Any of these actions could cause significant disruption to our financial service business operations and severely damage its reputation, which would in turn materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of these occurrences results in its inability to direct the activities of its consolidated variable interest entities, and/or its failure to receive economic benefits from its consolidated variable interest entities, we may not be able to consolidate our VIEs’ results into our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

21

Werely on our contractual arrangements with VIEs and the shareholder of VIEs for our business operations, which may not be as effectiveas direct ownership in providing operational control.

We have relied and expect to continue to rely on contractual arrangements with Fintech, Hengpu and Nami to operate our SME financing solutions, supply chain and other financing solutions business in the future. These contractual arrangements may not be as effective as direct ownership in providing us with control over our consolidated affiliates. For example, VIEs and their shareholders could breach their contractual arrangements by, among other things, failing to conduct their operations, in an acceptable manner or taking other actions that are detrimental to our interests.

If we had direct ownership of the VIEs, we would be able to exercise our rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the VIEs. However, under the current contractual arrangements, we rely on the performance by the VIEs and their shareholders of their obligations under the contracts to exercise control over our consolidated entities. The shareholders of VIEs may not act in the best interests of ours or may not perform their obligations under these contracts. Such risks exist throughout the period in which we operate our business through the contractual arrangements with the VIEs. Although we have the right to replace any shareholder of the consolidated variable interest entities under the contractual arrangement, if any shareholder of such entity is uncooperative or any dispute relating to these contracts remains unresolved, we will have to enforce the rights under the contracts through the operations of PRC laws and arbitration, litigation and other legal proceedings and therefore will be subject to uncertainties in the PRC legal system. Therefore, the contractual arrangements with VIEs may not be as effective in ensuring our control over the relevant portion of its business operations as direct ownership would be.

Shareholdersof VIEs may have potential conflicts of interest with ours, which may materially and adversely affect our business and financial condition.

The equity interests of the VIEs are beneficially owned by several individual shareholders through holding companies. Such VIE shareholders’ interests in VIE may differ from the interests of our Company as a whole. VIE shareholders may breach, or cause VIEs to breach, the existing contractual arrangements between us and VIEs, which would have a material adverse effect on our ability to effectively control the consolidated variable interest entities and receive economic benefits from them. For example, shareholders of VIEs may be able to cause the VIE agreements with the VIE to be performed in a manner adverse to us by, among other things, failing to remit payments due under the contractual arrangements to our subsidiaries on a timely basis. We cannot assure you that when conflicts of interest arise, any or all of VIE shareholders will act in the best interests of our Company or such conflicts will be resolved in our favor.

Currently, we do not have any arrangements to address potential conflicts of interest between VIE shareholders and ours, except that we could exercise the purchase option under the exclusive option agreements with these shareholders to request them to transfer all of their equity interests in the VIE to a PRC entity or individual designated by us, to the extent permitted by PRC laws. If we cannot resolve any conflict of interest or dispute with the shareholders of the VIE, we would have to rely on legal proceedings, which could result in the disruption of its business and subject us to substantial uncertainty as to the outcome of any such legal proceedings.

Contractualarrangements in relation to our consolidated variable interest entities may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities and theymay determine that we or our PRC consolidated variable interest entities owe additional taxes, which could negatively affect our financialcondition and the value of your investment.

Under applicable PRC laws and regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities within ten years after the taxable year when the transactions are conducted. The PRC enterprise income tax law requires every enterprise in China to submit its annual enterprise income tax return together with a report on transactions with its related parties to the relevant tax authorities. The tax authorities may impose reasonable adjustments on taxation if they have identified any related party transactions that are inconsistent with arm’s length principles. We may face material and adverse tax consequences if the PRC tax authorities determine that the contractual arrangements between NingChen and Naqing, our wholly-owned subsidiaries in China, consolidated VIEs in China, and the shareholders of the VIEs were not entered into on an arm’s length basis in such a way as to result in an impermissible reduction in taxes under applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations, and adjust the VIEs’ income in the form of a transfer pricing adjustment. A transfer pricing adjustment could, among other things, result in a reduction of expense deductions recorded by VIEs for PRC tax purposes, which could in turn increase its tax liabilities without reducing tax expenses of NingChen and Naqing. In addition, if NingChen or Naqing requests the shareholders of VIEs to transfer their equity interests in the VIEs at nominal or no value pursuant to these contractual arrangements, such transfer could be viewed as a gift and subject the VIEs to PRC income tax. Furthermore, the PRC tax authorities may impose late payment fees and other penalties on the VIEs for the adjusted but unpaid taxes according to the applicable regulations. Our financial position could be materially and adversely affected if our consolidated variable interest entities’ tax liabilities increase or if they are required to pay late payment fees and other penalties.

22

Wemay lose the ability to use and enjoy assets held by our consolidated VIEs that are material to the operation of our business if theVIE goes bankrupt or becomes subject to a dissolution or liquidation proceedings.

The VIE holds certain assets that are material to the operation of our financial services business, including domain names and equipment for our financial technology platform. Under the contractual arrangements, VIEs may not and VIE shareholders may not cause it to, in any manner, sell, transfer, mortgage or dispose of their assets or their legal or beneficial interests in the business without its prior consent. However, in the event a VIE shareholder breaches these contractual arrangements and voluntarily liquidates the VIE or the VIE declares bankruptcy and all or part of its assets become subject to liens or rights of third-party creditors, or are otherwise disposed of without NingChen’s or Naqing’s consent, it may be unable to continue some or all of its business activities, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations. If the VIE undergoes a voluntary or involuntary liquidation proceeding, independent third-party creditors may claim rights to some or all of their assets, thereby hindering our ability to operate its business, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Weare a “foreign private issuer,” and our disclosure obligations differ from those of U.S. domestic reporting companies, whichmay make it more difficult for you to evaluate our performance and prospects.

We are a foreign private issuer and, as a result, we are not subject to the same requirements as U.S. domestic issuers. Under the Exchange Act, we will be subject to reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of U.S. domestic reporting companies. For example, we will not be required to issue quarterly reports or proxy statements. We will not be required to disclose detailed individual executive compensation information. Furthermore, our directors and executive officers will not be required to report equity holdings under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and will not be subject to the insider short-swing profit disclosure and recovery regime.

As a foreign private issuer, we will also be exempt from the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) which, generally, are meant to ensure that select groups of investors are not privy to specific information about an issuer before other investors. However, we will still be subject to the anti-fraud and anti-manipulation rules of the SEC, such as Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act. Since many of the disclosure obligations imposed on us as a foreign private issuer differ from those imposed on U.S. domestic reporting companies, you should not expect to receive the same information about us and at the same time as the information provided by U.S. domestic reporting companies.

RisksRelated to Ownership of Our Common Shares

Weare an “emerging growth company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growthcompanies will make our Class A common shares less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although we could lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1.07 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our Class A common shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time, in which case we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31. We cannot predict if investors will find our Class A common shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our Class A common shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Class A common shares and our stock price may be more volatile. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

BritishVirgin Islands companies may not be able to initiate shareholder derivative actions, thereby depriving shareholders of the ability toprotect their interests.

British Virgin Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States. The circumstances in which any such action may be brought, and the procedures and defenses that may be available in respect to any such action, may result in the rights of shareholders of a British Virgin Islands company being more limited than those of shareholders of a company organized in the United States. Accordingly, shareholders may have fewer alternatives available to them if they believe that corporate wrongdoing has occurred. The British Virgin Islands courts are also unlikely to recognize or enforce against us judgments of courts in the United States based on certain liability provisions of U.S. securities law; and to impose liabilities against us, in original actions brought in the British Virgin Islands, based on certain liability provisions of U.S. securities laws that are penal in nature. There is no statutory recognition in the British Virgin Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the British Virgin Islands will generally recognize and enforce the non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits. This means that even if shareholders were to sue us successfully, they may not be able to recover anything to make up for the losses suffered.

Thelaws of the British Virgin Islands provide little protection for minority shareholders, and minority shareholders will have little orno recourse if the shareholders are dissatisfied with the conduct of our affairs.

Under the law of the British Virgin Islands, there is little statutory law for the protection of minority shareholders other than the provisions of the BVI Business Companies Act dealing with shareholder remedies. The principal protection under statutory law is that shareholders may bring an action to enforce the constituent documents of the corporation, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Shareholders are entitled to have the affairs of the company conducted in accordance with the general law and the articles and memorandum.

There are common law rights for the protection of shareholders that may be invoked, largely dependent on English company law, since the common law of the British Virgin Islands for business companies is limited. Under the general rule pursuant to English company law known as the rule in Foss v. Harbottle, a court will generally refuse to interfere with the management of a company at the insistence of a minority of its shareholders who express dissatisfaction with the conduct of the company’s affairs by the majority or the board of directors. However, every shareholder is entitled to have the affairs of the company conducted properly according to law and the constituent documents of the corporation. As such, if those who control the company have persistently disregarded the requirements of company law or the provisions of the company’s memorandum and articles of association, then the courts will grant relief. Generally, the areas in which the courts will intervene are the following: (1) an act complained of which is outside the scope of the authorized business or is illegal or not capable of ratification by the majority; (2) acts that constitute fraud on the minority where the wrongdoers control the company; (3) acts that infringe on the personal rights of the shareholders, such as the right to vote; and (4) where the company has not complied with provisions requiring approval of a special or extraordinary majority of shareholders, which are more limited than the rights afforded minority shareholders under the laws of many states in the United States.

Themarket price of our Class A common shares may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not beable to resell your shares.

The trading price for our Class A common shares has fluctuated since we first listed our common shares. After our common shares became listed on the Nasdaq on December 27, 2016, the trading price of our Class A common shares has ranged from $0.72 to $18.21 per share for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the last reported trading price on April __, 2021 was $__ per Class A common share. The market price of our common shares may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

actual or anticipated fluctuations<br> in our revenue and other operating results;
the financial projections<br> we may provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure to meet these projections;
--- ---
actions of securities analysts<br> who initiate or maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our company, or our<br> failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors;
--- ---

24

announcements by us or<br> our competitors of significant products or features, technical innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures,<br> or capital commitments;
price and volume fluctuations<br> in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole;
--- ---
lawsuits threatened or<br> filed against us; and
--- ---
other events or factors,<br> including those resulting from war or incidents of terrorism, or responses to these events.
--- ---

In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. Stock prices of many companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. In the past, stockholders have filed securities class action litigation following periods of market volatility. If we were to become involved in securities litigation, it could subject us to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business, and adversely affect our business.

Wedo not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, you may only receive a return on your investment in our Class A common shares if the market price of our Class A common shares increases.

Ifwe continue to be unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, investors may loseconfidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A common shares may decline.

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. In addition, beginning with the first annual report on Form 20-F, we have been required to furnish a report by management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If we continue to identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting when required, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A common shares could be negatively affected, and we could become subject to investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

Ourstaggered board structure may prevent a change in control of our company.

Our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors. The current terms of the directors expire in 2021, 2022 and 2023. Directors of each class are chosen for three-year terms upon the expiration of their current terms, and each year the shareholders elect one class of directors. The staggered terms of our directors may reduce the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt at a change in control, even though a tender offer or change in control might be in the best interest of our shareholders.

Therequirements of being a public company may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, the listing requirements of the securities exchange on which we list, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Despite recent reforms made possible by the JOBS Act, compliance with these rules and regulations will nonetheless increase our management, legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, semiannual, and current reports with respect to our business and operating results.

25

As a result of disclosure of information in this annual report on Form 20-F and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition are more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the resources of our management and adversely affect our business, brand and reputation and results of operations.

We also expect that being a public company and these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers.

Weincur increased costs as a result of being a public company.

As a public company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. For example, we must now engage U.S. securities law counsel and U.S. GAAP auditors that we did not require as a private company, and we will have annual payments for listing on a stock exchange if we are so listed. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and NASDAQ, has required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. While it is impossible to determine the amounts of such expenses in advance, we expect that we will incur additional expenses of between $500,000 and $1 million per year that we did not experience as a private company.

Item 4. Information on the Company
A. History and Development of the Company
--- ---

NISUN INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT GROUP CO., LTD, formerly Hebron Technology Co., Ltd. (“Nisun International” or the “Company”) was established under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on May 29, 2012 as a company limited by shares. The Company is a holding company and conducts its business through its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of VIEs in the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’).

We have had three major reorganizations since our inception. In connection with our initial public offering, we consummated the first reorganization to acquire our equipment and engineering business (the “IPO Reorganization”) in 2016. We became the ultimate parent company of Hong Kong Xibolun Technology Limited (“Xibolun HK”) and its PRC subsidiaries, Wenzhou Xibolun Fluid Equipment Co., Limited (“Xibolun Equipment”) and Zhejiang Xibolun Automation Project Technology Co., Ltd. (“Xibolun Automation”) (collectively referred to as the “Xibolun Group”), which before the IPO Reorganization, were all controlled by Mr. Anyuan Sun, our former Chairman of the Board and CEO. The Xibolun Group conducts equipment and engineering services operations focusing on the research, development and manufacture of valves, pipe fittings fluid equipment, with an emphasis on the manufacture and installation of intelligent valves used in the pharmaceutical, biological, food and beverage, and other clean industries in the PRC.

We commenced the second corporate restructure in July 2019 for the acquisition of our financial services business. We expanded our operations into the financial services industry through the acquisition of NiSun International Enterprise Management Group (British Virgin Islands) Co., Ltd. (“NiSun BVI”), its subsidiaries and consolidated affiliate, Fintech (Shanghai) Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fintech”), and subsidiaries of Fintech (collectively, “Fintech” or “Fintech Subsidiary Group”). In 2019, Fintech provided comprehensive financing solution services to SMEs primarily in connection with SME financings sponsored or underwritten by financial institutions and also provided distribution and management services for direct banking products issued by small- and medium-sized commercial banks in China.

26

Since July 2019, our financial services industry operations have experienced significant growth through several subsequent acquisitions and organizational changes. In December 2019, we acquired a controlling interest in Beijing Hengtai Puhui Information Service Co. Ltd., a PRC company, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hengpu” or “Hengpu Subsidiary Group”) through certain contractual arrangements. Hengpu provides a full set of financing solution services in SME financings. In May 2020, we acquired Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Nami Cayman”), and its subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entity (collectively, “Nami” or “Nami Subsidiary Group”) pursuant to a share purchase agreement. Nami provides financial advisory and intermediary financing solutions services matching small- and mid-sized enterprises and high quality investors in China.

On September 22, 2020, we changed our corporate name from “Hebron Technology Co., Ltd.” to “Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd” and in connection with the name change, the trading symbol of our Class A common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market was changed to “NISN” from “HEBT,” effective on November 16, 2020. The new corporate name reflects our Company’s current core financial services business and enables different service business to integrate various brands under one corporate identity.

In December 2020, based on a preliminary agreement with the local government, we established a wholly owned subsidiary, Nisun (Shandong) Industry Development Co., Ltd (“Nisun Shandong”), in Tai’an, Shandong province. Nisun Shandong is a holding company for our existing PRC operating subsidiaries and is expected to be a key operations platform. In 2020, we also formed several operating subsidiaries in different regions of China in response to the operational demands in our supply chain solutions and SME financing solutions services.

On November 30, 2020, to streamline our businesses, we completed the third corporate restructure whereby we sold all of our equity interest in Xibolun HK to Wise Metro Development Co., Ltd., an entity controlled by our former Chairman and CEO, Mr. Anyuan Sun (“Wise Metro”). The disposition of Xibolun HK (the “Disposition”) was consummated pursuant to a Call Option Agreement we entered on April 16, 2019 with Wise Metro under which Wise Metro was granted an option to purchase all of the equity of the Xibolun Group for a period beginning six months after the effective date of the Call Option Agreement and expiring two years and six months after the agreement effective date. Upon exercise, the purchase price to exercise the Call Option Agreement would be equal to the fair market value of the Xibolun Group at the time of exercise of the Call Option as determined by a qualified and experienced business appraisal firm appointed by us and Wise Metro. On June 14, 2019, our shareholders approved our entry into the Call Option Agreement. On May 11, 2020, Wise Metro exercised the Call Option to acquire the Xibolun Group. We completed the Disposition on November 30, 2020.

Through the transfer of Xibolun HK and the resulting divestiture of our interests in Xibolun HK’s operating subsidiaries, Xibolun Automation and Xibolun Equipment, we discontinued our legacy equipment and engineering business and disposed of our minority interest in Xuzhou Weijia Biotechnology Co., Ltd. We sold the legacy businesses for a gain of approximately $0.14 million.

On March 24, 2021, we completed the latest subsidiary reorganization whereby Nami Cayman and its Hong Kong subsidiary transferred all of the equity they held in Naqing and the economic interests in Nami Shanghai to Nisun Shandong. Following the transaction, Naqing became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nisun Shandong, which holds a controlling interest in Nami Shanghai.

B. Business Overview
--- ---

We are a technology-driven, integrated supply chain solutions and financial services provider focused on transforming China’s corporate finance industry. Leveraging our rich industry experience, we provide supply chain solutions to both PRC and non-PRC enterprises and financial institutions. Our full range of service solutions span from technology supply chain management, to technology asset routing, and digital transformation of technology and financial institutions, enabling the industries we serve to strengthen and grow. Further, we offer a wide range of technology-driven customized financing solutions to small- and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) in China to improve SMEs’ access to capital through our closed-loop ecosystem built on fintech platforms. Furthermore, we provide direct banking solutions to small- and medium-sized commercial banks and other financial institutions in their distribution and management of direct banking and other financial products. Built on our proprietary financial technology, our fintech platforms offer specialized asset allocation and financial planning services to institutional and individual investors.

Prior to the disposition of the Xibolun Group in November 2020, we conducted our business operations primarily in two industries, our legacy equipment and engineering and the financial services. Following the disposition, we no longer operate in the equipment and engineering industry, and the financial services industry and its related industries are the only sector of the PRC economy we serve. Our financial services operations have experienced rapid growth since July 2019 and have quickly evolved to become our core business, while the performance of our legacy equipment and engineering business had not met management expectations in the prior several years before the disposition.

In 2019, we provided comprehensive financing solution services to SMEs primarily in connection with SME financings sponsored or underwritten by financial institutions (previously referred to by us as underwriting related advisory services) and also provided distribution and management service for direct banking products issued by small- and medium-sized commercial banks in China. SME financing solution services are operated by Fintech and Hengpu. Nami provides financial advisory and intermediary financial services matching SMEs and high quality investors in China. Fintech also provides banking product distribution and management services.

We commenced our supply chain solutions business in January 2020. Fintech and its subsidiaries provide our customers with professionally tailored solutions for supply chain management, technology asset routing, and digital transformation of technology and financial institutions. With a focus on finance and industry linkage, we serve the upstream and downstream enterprises and transactions of the supply chain industry while facilitating supply-side sub-sector reforms. Our digitally linked platform connects commercial banks, securities firms, trusts, funds, insurance companies, state-owned enterprises and other participants in the supply chain industry.

30

Our business operations are comprised of three main service models: SME Financing Solutions, Supply Chain Solutions and Other Financing Solutions. We earn one-time advisory fees for our services provided to SMEs for offerings on PRC provincial or national financial assets exchanges or other designated capital markets underwritten by financial institutions in accordance with the service agreements with underwriters, financial institutions or financial product providers. In addition, we also provide ongoing customer management services to small and medium commercial banks and financial institutions in distributing and sourcing funds for their direct banking and other financial products in exchange for recurring service fees. Our intermediary matching service fee is earned upon the purchase of the financial products.

We use cutting-edge technologies, including big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and blockchain in the financial service. We are committed to leveraging our open fintech platforms and ecosystem and providing comprehensive financial solutions to facilitate digital transformation of financial institutions and enterprise customers.

SupplyChain Solutions

We launched our technology-driven integrated supply chain solutions business in January 2020, which has become the fastest growing among all of our operations. We provide multi-level financing and supply chain solutions to core enterprises and SMEs by focusing on industry and finance integration and industry segmentation. Our supply chain solutions services mainly target the agriculture, infrastructure, maritime logistics, energy and plastics products markets. We streamline the supply chain finance process, participate as an intermediary and a partner in the merchandise flows in the procurement and distribution transactions, automate the transaction payments and offer the most favorable trading terms to both suppliers and buyers.

Our supply chain industry services provide cash flow solutions to help businesses free up working capital locked in the supply chains. Our offerings cover a broad category of trade financing solutions encompassing all the financing opportunities across a supply chain. We facilitate merchandise purchases from suppliers with payment terms desirable to the suppliers who can access working capital quickly and at a lower cost. Meanwhile our collaborations with merchandise buyers enable the buyers to make payments on a delayed basis often with an extended trade credit. Our solutions optimize working capital and allow for buyers to extend payments on supplies at no cost to the supplier. Pursuant to the agreements with our supply chain customers, we earn service fees when suppliers receive their financings, and our service fees are calculated as a fixed charge rate on the financing amount. Our services allow both suppliers and buyers to unlock working capital as well as reduce the risks associated with merchandise flows.

In the first half of 2020, our supply chain solutions services were mainly focused on the agriculture, infrastructure, and maritime logistics markets. In December 2020, we expanded our services into the energy industry through a strategic collaboration with Shanghai Petroleum and Natural Gas Exchange (“SHPGX”), a national trading platform for energy products. This partnership provides us with the opportunity to offer the supply chain management and financing solutions services to members of SHPGX’s trading platform and establish our presence and market share in the energy industry. Based on this cooperation, we have developed a new “supply chain +” business model, which will be applied in our services to clients in other industries.

We aim to build supply chain platforms that link commercial banks, securities firms, trusts, funds, insurance companies and state-owned enterprises through the continued introduction of big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, blockchain and other cutting-edge technologies into the supply chain industry. In supply chain procurement and sales transactions, we play an instrumental role in reducing the purchase cost, communication cost and financial risks for core enterprises, buyers and suppliers. For our first year of the supply chain solutions operations in 2020, the gross merchandise volume of the transactions for which we facilitated the financing and procurement amounted to approximately $43.5 million (RMB 300 million).

We are required under PRC law to make contributions to employee benefit plans at specified percentages of our after-tax profit. In addition, we are required by PRC law to cover employees in China with various types of social insurance. We believe that we are in material compliance with the relevant PRC employment laws.

Regulation

We operate in an increasingly complex legal and regulatory environment. We are subject to a variety of PRC and foreign laws, rules and regulations across numerous aspects of our business. This section sets forth a summary of the principal PRC laws, judicial interpretations, rules and regulations relevant to our business and operations in the PRC.

RegulationsRelating to Foreign Investment

The establishment, operation and management of corporate entities in the PRC, including foreign-invested companies, are subject to the Company Law of the PRC, or the Company Law, which was issued by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, or the NPC Standing Committee, on December 29, 1993 and took effect on July 1, 1994. It was last amended on October 26, 2018. Unless otherwise provided in the PRC’s foreign investment laws, the provisions of the Company Law shall prevail.

The establishment procedures, filing and approval procedures, registered capital requirements, foreign exchange restrictions, accounting practices, taxation and labor matters of a wholly foreign-owned enterprise are governed by the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law of the PRC, which was issued on April 12, 1986 and last amended on September 3, 2016 and took effect on October 1, 2016; the Implementation Regulations of the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law of the PRC, which was issued on December 12, 1990 and last amended on February 19, 2014 and took effect on March 1, 2014; and the Interim Measures for Record-filing Administration of the Establishment and Change of Foreign-invested Enterprises, which was issued on October 8, 2016 and last amended on June 30, 2018.

49

Investments in the PRC by foreign investors and foreign-invested enterprises are regulated by the Catalogue of Industries in which Foreign Investment is Encouraged (2020 Edition), or the 2020 Catalog, and the Special Administrative Measures for Foreign Investment Access (Negative List 2020), or the 2020 Negative List. The establishment of wholly foreign-owned enterprises is generally allowed in industries not included in the Negative List. Industries not listed in the Negative List are generally open to foreign investment unless specifically restricted by other applicable Chinese regulations. Under the 2020 Negative List, foreign equity in companies providing value-added telecommunications services, excluding e-commerce, domestic multi-party communications, data collection and transmission services, and call centers, should not exceed 50%. Part of our business is subject to such 50% foreign invested equity cap.

On March 15, 2019, the NPC Standing Committee issued the Foreign Investment Law of the PRC, or the Foreign Investment Law, which took effect on January 1, 2020. It replaced the major existing laws and regulations governing foreign investment in the PRC, namely, the Law of the PRC on Sino-foreign Equity Joint Ventures, the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law of the PRC and the Law of the PRC on Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Ventures. The PRC Company Law and the PRC Partnership Enterprise Law generally govern the organization of a foreign invested enterprise.

The Foreign Investment Law mainly stipulates four forms of foreign investments: (a) a foreign investor, individually or collectively with other investors, establishes a foreign-invested enterprise within PRC; (b) a foreign investor acquires stock shares, equity shares, interests in assets, or other like rights and interests of an enterprise within PRC; (c) a foreign investor, individually or collectively with other investors, invests in a new project within the PRC; and (d) foreign investors invest in the PRC through any other methods under laws, administrative regulations, or provisions prescribed by the State Council of the PRC. It does not mention the relevant concept and regulatory regime of VIE structures and uncertainties still exist in relation to its interpretation and implementation.

Under the Foreign Investment Law, foreign investment is accorded pre-admission national treatment, which means that treatment given to foreign investors and their investment shall not be less favorable than those given to domestic investors and their investments, except where a foreign investment falls under the Negative List. It also provides several protective rules and principles for foreign investors and their investments in the PRC, including, foreign investors’ funds can be freely transferred out and into the territory of the PRC through the entire life cycle from the entry to the exit of foreign investment, a comprehensive system to guarantee fair competition among foreign-invested enterprises and domestic enterprises will be established, and the state shall not expropriate any foreign investment except under special circumstances, in which case statutory procedures shall be followed and fair and reasonable compensation shall be made in a timely manner.

In addition, the Foreign Investment Law subjects foreign investors and foreign-invested enterprises to legal liabilities for failing to report their investment information in accordance with the requirements of an information reporting system that will be established. It also provides that foreign invested enterprises established according to the existing laws regulating foreign investment may maintain their structure and corporate governance within five years after the implementation of the Foreign Investment Law, which means that foreign invested enterprises may be required to adjust their structure and corporate governance in accordance with the PRC Company Law and other laws and regulations governing the corporate governance.

On December 26, 2019, the State Council promulgated the Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law, which became effective on January 1, 2020. The Implementation Regulations for the Foreign Investment Law implement the legislative principles and purpose of the Foreign Investment Law, emphasize on promoting the foreign investment and refine the specific measures, and also replaced the implementation rules of the Law of the PRC on Sino-foreign Equity Joint Ventures, the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law of the PRC and the Law of the PRC on Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Ventures. On December 26, 2019, the Supreme People’s Court issued an Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of the Foreign Investment law of the PRC, which also came into effect on January 1, 2020. The interpretation applies to any contractual dispute arising from acquisition of the relevant rights and interests by a foreign investor through gift, division of property, merger of enterprises, division of enterprises, etc. On December 30, 2019, MOFCOM and the SAMR jointly issued the Measures on Reporting of Foreign Investment Information, which replaced the existing filing and approval procedures regarding the establishment and change of foreign-invested companies. On December 31, 2019, MOFCOM issued the Announcement on Matters Relating to Foreign Investment Information Reporting, emphasized the information reporting requirements provided by the Measures on Reporting of Foreign Investment Information, and stipulated the forms for information reporting.

50

On December 19, 2020, NDRC and the Ministry of Commerce jointly issued the Measures which became effective on January 18, 2021. According to the Measures, a working mechanism shall be established for organizing, coordinating, and guiding the security review of foreign investments, and the office in charge of the security review work will be set up by the NDRC and the Ministry of Commerce. Furthermore, the Measures provide that if foreign investors or their related parties in China engage in any foreign investment in industry with national security concerns such as information technology, internet products and services, or financial services, they shall make applications to the office in charge of the security review work in advance of national security review.

RegulationsRelating to Value-Added Telecommunication Services

The Telecommunications Regulations of the PRC, or the Telecommunications Regulations, issued by the State Council of the PRC on September 25, 2000 and last amended on February 6, 2016, provide the general framework for the provision of telecommunication services by PRC companies. It requires a telecommunication service provider in China to obtain an operating license from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, or MIIT, or its provincial counterparts, prior to commencement of operations.

The Telecommunications Regulations categorize telecommunication services in China as either basic telecommunications services or value-added telecommunications services. According to the Catalog of Telecommunications Business, attached to the Telecommunications Regulations and issued by MIIT, on December 28, 2015 and last amended on June 6, 2019, online data processing, transaction processing and information services provided via fixed network, mobile network and internet, call center service and internet data center services are value-added telecommunication services.

On July 3, 2017, MIIT issued the Administrative Measures for Telecommunications Business Operating Permit, or the Telecom Permit Measures, which took effect on September 1, 2017. The Telecom Permit Measures set forth more specific provisions regarding the types of licenses required to operate value-added telecommunications services, the qualifications and procedures for obtaining the licenses and the administration and supervision of these licenses. Operators are required to submit an application within the prescribed period to the original permit-issuing authority with respect to changes in the business scope or the operating entity resulting from shareholder changes or the merger and division of the company as prescribed under relevant regulations.

On June 8, 2020, MIIT issued the Notice of Strengthening the Administration of Call Center Service, which provides that any entities engaging in call center service shall obtain corresponding business permits as required by the relevant laws and regulations, and shall conduct the business subject to the Catalog of Telecommunications Business.

Regulationson Foreign Investment in the Value-Added Telecommunications Industry

Foreign direct investment in telecommunications companies in China is governed by the Administrative Rules on Foreign-invested Telecommunications Enterprises, or the FITE Regulations, which was issued by the State Council on December 11, 2001 and last amended on February 6, 2016. Under the FITE Regulations, a foreign investor’s beneficial equity ownership in an entity providing value-added telecommunications services in China shall not exceed 50%. In addition, for a foreign investor to acquire any equity interest in a business providing value-added telecommunications services in China, it must demonstrate a good track record and experience in providing these services. However, under the Circular on Loosening the Restriction on Foreign Shareholdings in Online Data Processing and Transaction Processing Business (for E-commerce), or Circular 196, issued by MIIT on June 19, 2015, foreign investors may hold up to 100% of all equity interest in an online data processing and transaction processing business operating e-commerce in China, while other requirements provided by the FITE Regulations shall still apply. Apart from e-commerce, the 2020 Negative List also provides that foreign investors may hold 100% equity interest in domestic multi-party communications, data collection and transmission services and call centers. The MIIT’s Circular on Strengthening the Administration of Foreign Investment in and Operation of Value-added Telecommunications Business, or the MIIT Circular, issued on July 13, 2006, requires foreign investors to set up foreign-invested enterprises and obtain a license for value-added telecommunications services. It prohibits domestic companies holding value-added telecommunications services licenses from leasing, transferring or selling their licenses in any form, or providing any resource, sites or facilities, to any foreign investors intending to conduct this type of businesses in China.

51

In addition to restricting dealings with foreign investors, the MIIT Circular contains a number of detailed requirements applicable to operators of value-added telecommunications services, including that operators or their shareholders must legally own the domain names and trademarks used in their daily operations and each operator must possess the necessary facilities for its approved business operations and maintain its facilities in the regions covered by its license. The MIIT or its provincial counterparts have the power to require corrective actions after they discover any non-compliance by operators, and where operators fail to take those steps, the MIIT or its provincial counterparts can revoke the value-added telecommunications services licenses.

In view of the foregoing foreign ownership restrictions, we have established several VIEs to engage in the business of value-added telecommunications services. Due to the lack of interpretative guidance from the relevant PRC governmental authorities, there are uncertainties regarding whether PRC governmental authorities would consider our corporate structure and contractual arrangements compliant with applicable PRC foreign investment laws and regulations.

Regulationson Internet Information Services

The Administrative Measures on Internet Information Services, or the Internet Information Measures, which was issued by the State Council on September 25, 2000 and amended on January 8, 2011, set out guidelines on the provision of internet information services. Pursuant to the Internet Information Measures, “internet information services” are defined as services that provide information to online users through the internet. The Internet Information Measures require internet information services operators to obtain a value-added telecommunications business operating license for internet information services, or the ICP License, from the relevant government authorities before engaging in any commercial internet information services operations in China.

In addition, internet information service providers are required to monitor their websites to ensure that they do not contain content prohibited by law or regulation. The PRC government may require corrective actions to address non-compliance by ICP License holders or revoke their ICP License for serious violations. Furthermore, the MIIT Circular on Regulating the Use of Domain Names in Internet Information Services, issued on November 27, 2017 and that took effect on January 1, 2018, requires internet information service providers to register and own the domain names they use in providing internet information services.

Regulationson Mobile Internet Application Information Services

RegulationsRelating to Loan Facilitation

On December 1, 2017, the Group Head Office of Internet Financial Risk Special Rectification and the Group Head Office of the P2P Network Loan Risks jointly issued the Notice on the Regulation and Rectification of the “Cash Loan” Business, or Circular 141, which regulates “cash loan” businesses conducted by internet micro-finance companies, banking financial institutions and online lending information intermediaries. Circular 141 defines “cash loans” as loans that are unrelated to the circumstances of their use, with no designated use for the loan proceeds, no qualification requirement for the borrower and no collateral for the loan. The definition of a cash loan under Circular 141 is vague and subject to further regulatory interpretation. Circular 141 sets forth various prohibitions and obligations on banking financial institutions participating in “cash loan” businesses, including that: (i) extension of loans jointly with any third-party institution that has not obtained approvals for the lending business, or funding to such institutions for the purpose of extending loans in any form, is prohibited; (ii) with respect to a lending business conducted in collaboration with a third-party institution, outsourcing of the core business (including the credit assessment and risk control) is prohibited, and any credit enhancement service, whether or not in disguised form (including the commitment to bear the risk of default), provided by any third-party institutions without guarantee qualification are also prohibited, and (iii) banking financial institutions must require and ensure that such third-party institutions do not collect any interest or fees from the borrowers. Any violation of Circular 141 may result in criminal liability and various penalties, including suspension or cessation of business operations, sanctions, rectification, rejection of filing, and revocation of license.

In addition, the Notice on Specific Rectification Implementation Plans for Risk of Online Microfinance Businesses of Microfinance Companies, or Circular 56, provides that the online lending business conducted by microfinance companies in collaboration with a third-party institution, may not include any credit enhancement service in disguised form (including the provision of a “drawer agreement” guarantee) or underlying commitments by the third-party institution. Third-party institutions collaborating with microfinance companies are also prohibited from collecting any interest or fees from borrowers. Violation of Circular 56 may result in various penalties.

On August 1, 2019, the General Office of the State Council issued and promulgated the Guidance on Promoting the Healthy Development of the Platform Economy, which provides that the market-access management and supervision of financial services provided through online platforms in the finance sector are regulated by the laws, regulations and other relevant rules.

On July 12, 2020, the Interim Measures came into effect. While the Interim Measures apply to commercial banks, consumer finance companies and auto finance companies directly, the Interim Measures also require these banking financial institutions to strengthen the management of cooperation related to loan business, which would affect the cooperated institutions in internet loan business and their existing business models. Pursuant to these Interim Measures, commercial banks shall evaluate their cooperation agencies and implement name list management. Commercial banks shall not accept direct and disguised credit enhancement services from unqualified cooperation agencies, nor entrust third-party collection agencies with illegal records. The Interim Measures also provide that, except for cooperating institutions that jointly provide loans, commercial banks shall not entrust cooperating institutions to perform key operations, such as loan issuance, loan principal and interest recovery, and suspension of funding. Pursuant to the Interim Measures, commercial banks shall independently carry out risk assessment and credit approval for loans they fund, and take primary responsibility for post-loan management. Commercial banks shall not entrust third-party institutions with records of violent collection or other illegal records to collect loans. Furthermore, according to the Interim Measures, commercial banks shall forbid third-party partners from charging any fees or interests on borrowers, and shall clarify such rule in written agreements with their partners. The CBIRC and its local branches shall evaluate reports and relevant materials submitted by commercial banks, and the key assessment factors include independent control of credit approval procedures, contract signing and other core risk management procedures of commercial banks.

On February 19, 2021, the CBIRC issued the Notice of Further Regulating Online Loan Business of Commercial Banks, and it provides that commercial banks shall not outsource material procedures of loan origination, loan servicing, and delinquency management to third-party institutions, and in addition, commercial banks shall not engage in online loan business outside its registered place.

Regulationrelated to Exchange Administered Financial Asset Securities Distribution

The distribution of exchange administered financial asset securities is currently regulated by the Decision Regarding Straightening out and Rectifying Various Types of Trading Venues to Effectively Prevent Financial Risks (“Document 38”) and the Implementation Opinions on Straightening out and Rectifying Various Types of Trading Venues (“Document 37”), promulgated by the General Office of the State Council on November 11, 2011 and July 12, 2012, respectively. Both Document 38 and Document 37 stipulate that exchanges that are subject to the approval of the State Council or its administration department of finance for establishment, shall be regulated by the administration department of finance of the State Council; all other exchanges shall be regulated by the local People’s Government at the provincial level, which in practice, are the offices of finance at municipal and provincial levels. Document 38 and Document 37 emphasize on the prohibitive activities relating to the issuance and distribution of exchange administered funds, for example, that the number of investors of exchange administered funds shall not exceed 200 accumulatively.

Regulationon Foreign Exchange Control

Foreign exchange in China is primarily regulated by:

The Foreign Currency Administration<br> Regulations (1996), as amended on January 14, 1997 and August 5, 2008; and
The Administration Rules<br> of the Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange (1996), or the Administration Rules.
--- ---

56

Under the Foreign Currency Administration Regulations, the Renminbi is convertible for current account items, including the distribution of dividends, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions. Conversion of Renminbi into foreign currency for capital account items, such as, loans, investment in securities and repatriation of investments, however, remains subject to the registration of the SAFE or its local counterparts as required by law. Under the Administration Rules, foreign-invested enterprises may buy, sell and remit foreign currencies at banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange transactions for settlement of current account transactions after providing valid commercial documents and, in the case of capital account item transactions, only after registration with the SAFE and, as the case may be, other relevant PRC government authorities as required by law. Capital investments directed outside of China by foreign-invested enterprises are also subject to restrictions, which include registration filing with MOFCOM. If the investment is made to the sensitive countries, districts, or industries, it needs to be approved by MOFCOM.

The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People’s Bank of China. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its policy of pegging the value of the Renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, the Renminbi will be permitted to fluctuate within a band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. We receive a significant portion of our revenue in Renminbi, which is not a freely convertible currency. Under our current structure, our income will be primarily derived from dividend payments from our subsidiaries in China. Even though we may remit the income from China to anywhere we want, the fluctuation of exchange rate may be a disadvantage to us if the Renminbi depreciated.

Regulationon Foreign Exchange Registration of Offshore Investment by PRC Residents

The Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, promulgated by SAFE on July 14, 2014 and designed to replace the former circular commonly known as “Notice 75”, requires registration of PRC residents with local branches of SAFE with respect to their direct establishment or indirect control of an offshore entity (referred to in Notice 37 as “special purpose vehicle.”), where such offshore entity are established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing, provided that PRC residents contribute their legally owned assets or equity into such entity.

Notice 37 further requires amendment to the registration where any significant changes with respect to the special purpose vehicle capitalization or structure of the PRC resident itself (such as capital increase, capital reduction, share transfer or exchange, merger or spin off).

Regulationon Dividend Distributions

Our PRC subsidiaries, Xibolun Automation and Xibolun Equipment, are wholly foreign-owned and joint venture enterprises under the PRC law. The principal regulations governing the distribution of dividends paid by wholly foreign-owned enterprises include:

Corporate Law (1993) as<br> amended in 2005 and 2013;
The Wholly Foreign-Owned<br> Enterprise Law (1986), as amended in 2000;
--- ---
The Wholly Foreign-Owned<br> Enterprise Law Implementation Regulations (1990), as amended in 2001; and
--- ---
The Enterprise Income Tax<br> Law (2007) and its Implementation Regulations (2007).
--- ---

Under these regulations, wholly foreign-owned and joint venture enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, an enterprise in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until its cumulative total reserve funds reaches 50% of its registered capital. Our Company’s reserve fund has not yet reached this level. The board of directors of a wholly foreign-owned enterprise has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to its employee welfare and bonus funds. These reserve funds, however, may not be distributed as cash dividends.

57

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress enacted the Enterprise Income Tax Law, and on December 6, 2007, the State Council issued the Implementation Regulations on the Enterprise Income Tax Law, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under this law and its implementation regulations, dividends payable by a foreign-invested enterprise in the PRC to its foreign investor who is a non-resident enterprise will be subject to a 10% withholding tax, unless any such foreign investor’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with the PRC that provides for a lower withholding tax rate. See “Taxation.”

M&ARules and Regulation on Overseas Listings

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, MOFCOM, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the State Administration for Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, CSRC and SAFE, jointly adopted the Regulation on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, which became effective on September 8, 2006. The M&A Rules purport, among other things, to require that offshore SPVs that are controlled by PRC companies or individuals and that have been formed for overseas listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic interests held by such PRC companies or individuals, obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published a notice on its official website specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by SPVs seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.

While the application of the M&A Rules remains unclear, our prior PRC counsel, our PRC legal counsel advised us that, based on their understanding of the current PRC laws and regulations as well as the notice announced on September 21, 2006:

the CSRC currently has<br> not issued any definitive rule or interpretation concerning whether offerings such as our initial public offering are subject to<br> the CSRC approval procedures under the M&A Rules; and
despite the lack of any<br> definitive rule or interpretation from CSRC, the main purpose of the M&A rule is for national security and national industrial<br> policy and so far none of the Chinese companies that have completed their public listing in the U.S. have obtained such approval;<br> and
--- ---
Our business operations<br> in China do not belong to a prohibited industry by foreign investment; and
--- ---
Our M&A to our Chinese<br> subsidiary companies have all obtained properly the approval from local governmental authorizations; and
--- ---
Our BVI company is not<br> established by a Chinese citizen. Accordingly, although the purpose of BVI incorporation is for overseas listing, the M&A rule<br> should not apply to us.
--- ---

Our PRC counsel also advises us, however, that there is still uncertainty as to how the M&A Rules will be interpreted and implemented. If the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies, subsequently determine that CSRC approval was required for our initial public offering, we may need to apply for remedial approval from the CSRC and we may be subject to penalties and administrative sanctions administered by these regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, or take other actions that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our Class A common shares. Consequently, even though our PRC counsel believes the probability for the aforementioned actions is small, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of, and prior to, settlement and delivery, you do so at the risk settlement and delivery may not occur.

In addition, if the CSRC later requires that we obtain its approval for our initial public offering, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of the CSRC approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any uncertainties or negative publicity regarding the CSRC approval requirements could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our Class A common shares.

Regulationson Offshore Parent Holding Companies’ Direct Investment in and Loans to Their PRC Subsidiaries

An offshore company may invest equity in a PRC company, which will become the PRC subsidiary of the offshore holding company after investment. Such equity investment is subject to a series of laws and regulations generally applicable to any foreign-invested enterprise in China, which include the Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise Law, the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Sino-foreign Contractual Joint Venture Enterprise Law, all as amended from time to time, and their respective implementing rules; the Tentative Provisions on the Foreign Exchange Registration Administration of Foreign-Invested Enterprise; and the Notice on Certain Matters Relating to the Change of Registered Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises.

Under the aforesaid laws and regulations, the increase of the registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise is subject to the prior approval by the original approval authority of its establishment. In addition, the increase of registered capital and total investment amount shall both be registered with SAIC.

Shareholder loans made by offshore parent holding companies to their PRC subsidiaries are regarded as foreign debts in China for regulatory purposes, which debts are subject to a number of PRC laws and regulations, including the PRC Foreign Exchange Administration Regulations, the Interim Measures on Administration on Foreign Debts, the Tentative Provisions on the Statistics Monitoring of Foreign Debts and its implementation rules, and the Administration Rules on the Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange.

Under these regulations, the shareholder loans made by offshore parent holding companies to their PRC subsidiaries shall be registered with SAFE. Furthermore, the total amount of foreign debts that can be incurred by such PRC subsidiaries, including any shareholder loans, shall not exceed the difference between the total investment amount and the registered capital amount of the PRC subsidiaries, both of which are subject to governmental approval.

Regulationson Enterprise Income Tax

On March 16, 2007, the NPC Standing Committee issued the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC, which took effect on January 1, 2008, or the Old EIT Law. On December 6, 2007, the State Council enacted the Implementation Rules for the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC, or the EIT Rules, which also took effect on January 1, 2008 and was amended on April 23, 2019. The Old EIT Law was amended on February 24, 2017 and December 29, 2018. The Old EIT Law, as amended, and the EIT Rules are collectively referred to as the EIT Law. According to the EIT Law, taxpayers consist of resident enterprises and non-resident enterprises. Resident enterprises are defined as enterprises that are established in China in accordance with the PRC laws, or that are established in accordance with the laws of foreign countries but whose actual or de factocontrol entity is within the PRC. Non-resident enterprises are defined as enterprises that are set up in accordance with the laws of foreign countries and whose actual administration is conducted outside the PRC, but (i) have entities or premises in China, or (ii) have no entities or premises but have income generated from China. According to the EIT Law, foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC are subject to a uniform enterprise income tax rate of 25%. A non-resident enterprise that has an establishment or premises within the PRC must pay enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on its income that is derived from such establishment or premises inside the PRC and that is sourced outside the PRC but is actually connected with the said establishment or premises. However, if non-resident enterprises have not formed permanent establishments or premises in the PRC, or if they have formed permanent establishment institutions or premises in the PRC but there is no actual relationship between the relevant income derived in the PRC and the established institutions or premises set up by them, the enterprise income tax is, in that case, set at the rate of 10% for their income sourced from inside the PRC.

Enterprises that are recognized as high and new technology enterprises in accordance with the Notice of the Ministry of Science, the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation on Amending and Issuing the Administrative Measures for the Determination of High and New Tech Enterprises are entitled to enjoy a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 15%. Pursuant to the Administrative Measures for the Recognition of High and New Technology Enterprises, the validity period of the high and new technology enterprise qualification shall be three years from the date of issuance of the certificate of high and new technology enterprise. An enterprise can re-apply for such recognition as a high and new technology enterprise before or after the previous certificate expires.

59

On February 3, 2015, the State Administration of Taxation, or SAT, issued the Announcement on Several Issues Concerning Enterprise Income Tax on Indirect Transfer of Assets by Non-Resident Enterprises, or Circular 7. Circular 7 provides comprehensive guidelines relating to, and heightening the Chinese tax authorities’ scrutiny of, indirect transfers by a non-resident enterprise of assets (including assets of organizations and premises in the PRC, immovable property in the PRC, and equity investments in PRC resident enterprises), or the PRC Taxable Assets. For instance, when a non-resident enterprise transfers equity interest in an overseas holding company that directly or indirectly holds certain PRC Taxable Assets and if the transfer is believed by the Chinese tax authorities to have no reasonable commercial purpose other than to evade enterprise income tax, Circular 7 allows the Chinese tax authorities to reclassify the indirect transfer of PRC Taxable Assets into a direct transfer and therefore impose PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of a 10% on the non-resident enterprise. On the other hand, indirect transfers falling into the scope of the safe harbors under the Circular 7 may not be subject to PRC tax under the Circular 7. The safe harbors include qualified group restructurings, public market trades and exemptions under tax treaties or arrangements.

On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the Announcement on Issues Relating to Withholding at Source of Income Tax of Non-resident Enterprises, or the SAT Circular 37, which took effect on December 1, 2017 and was amended on June 15, 2018. According to SAT Circular 37, the balance after deducting the equity net value from the equity transfer income shall be the taxable income amount for equity transfer income.

Under the SAT Circular 7 and the Law on the Administration of Tax Collection issued by the NPC Standing Committee on September 4, 1992 and last amended on April 24, 2015, in the case of an indirect transfer, entities or individuals that are obligated to pay the transfer price to the transferor shall act as withholding agents. If they fail to make withholding or withhold the full amount of tax payable, the transferor of equity must declare and pay tax to the tax authorities in charge within seven days from the occurrence of the tax payment obligation. Where the withholding agent does not make withholding, and the transferor of equity does not pay the payable amount, the tax authority may impose late payment interest on the transferor. In addition, the tax authority may also hold the withholding agents liable and impose a penalty of ranging from 50% to 300% of the unpaid tax on them. The penalty imposed on the withholding agents may be reduced or waived if the withholding agents have submitted the relevant materials in connection with the indirect transfer to the PRC tax authorities in accordance with Circular 7.

Pursuant to the SAT Circular on Relevant Issues relating to the Implementation of Dividend Clauses in Tax Agreements, which took effect on February 20, 2009, all of the following requirements must be satisfied to enjoy the preferential tax rates provided under the tax agreements: (1) the tax resident that receives dividends should be a company as provided in the tax agreement; (2) the equity interest and voting shares of the PRC resident company directly owned by the tax resident satisfy the percentages specified in the tax agreement; and (3) the equity interest of the PRC resident company directly owned by such tax resident at any time during the 12 months prior to receiving the dividends satisfy the percentage specified in the tax agreement.

The EIT Law provides that an income tax rate of 10% will normally be applicable to dividends payable to investors that are “non-resident enterprises,” and gains derived by such investors, which (a) do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC or (b) have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business to the extent such dividends and gains are derived from sources within the PRC. The income tax on the dividends may be reduced pursuant to a tax treaty between China and other applicable jurisdictions. Pursuant to the Arrangement Between the Mainland of China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, or the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, issued by the SAT on August 21, 2006 that took effect on December 8, 2006, and other applicable PRC laws, if a Hong Kong resident enterprise is determined by the competent PRC tax authority to have satisfied the relevant conditions and requirements under such Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, its protocols and other applicable laws, the 10% withholding tax on the dividends the Hong Kong resident enterprise receives from a PRC resident enterprise may be reduced to 5% upon receiving approval from the in-charge tax authority. However, based on the SAT Notice on Certain Issues with Respect to the Enforcement of Dividend Provisions in Tax Treaties, issued and effective on February 20, 2009, if the relevant PRC tax authorities determine, in their discretion, that a company benefits from such reduced income tax rate due to a structure or arrangement that is primarily tax-driven, such PRC tax authorities may adjust the preferential tax treatment. Based on the SAT Announcement of Taxation on Issues Relating to “Beneficial Owner” in Tax Treaties, issued on February 3, 2018 and effective from April 1, 2018, to determine the “beneficial owner” status of a resident of the treaty counterparty seeking to enjoy tax treaty benefits, a comprehensive analysis must be carried out in accordance with the factors set out in the announcement.

60

On August 27, 2015, the SAT issued the Announcement on Promulgating the Administrative Measures for Tax Convention Treatment for Non-resident Taxpayers, which took effect on November 1, 2015 and was amended on June 15, 2018. The aforementioned announcement was repealed by the Announcement of State Taxation Administration on Promulgation of the Administrative Measures on Non-resident Taxpayers Enjoying Treaty Benefits, which was propagated on October 14, 2019 and took effect on January 1, 2020. Under such announcement, non-resident taxpayers meeting conditions for enjoying the convention treatment may be entitled to the convention treatment themselves when filing a tax return or making a withholding declaration through a withholding agent, subject to the subsequent administration by the tax authorities. Such taxpayers who make their own declaration must self-assess whether they are entitled to tax treaty benefits, make truthful declarations and submit the relevant reports, statements and materials required by the relevant tax authorities.

Regulationson Value-added Tax

All entities and individuals engaged in the sale of goods, provision of processing, repairs and replacement services, and the importation of goods within the territory of the PRC must pay value-added tax, or the VAT, in accordance with the Provisional Regulations on Value-added Tax of the PRC, or the Provisional Regulations on VAT, and its implementation rules, or collectively, the VAT Law. The Provisional Regulations on VAT, which was issued by the State Council on December 13, 1993 and took effect on January 1, 1994, was amended by the Notice of Adjustment of VAT Rates issued on April 4, 2018 and by the Notice of Strengthening Reform of VAT Policies issued on March 20, 2019. Pursuant to the VAT Law, VAT payable is calculated as “output VAT” minus “input VAT”. The rate of VAT varies among 13%, 9% and 6% depending on the product type.

In accordance with the Circular of the Ministry of Finance and SAT on Comprehensively Promoting the Pilot Program of the Collection of Value-added Tax in Lieu of Business Tax, issued on March 23, 2016 and effective from May 1, 2016, upon approval of the State Council of the PRC, the pilot program of the collection of VAT in lieu of business tax shall be promoted nationwide in a comprehensive manner as at May 1, 2016.

Regulationson Trademarks

Trademarks are protected by the PRC Trademark Law adopted in 1982, as subsequently amended, as well as the Implementation Regulations of the PRC Trademark Law adopted by the State Council in 2002 and 2013. The Trademark Office under the SAIC handles trademark registrations. Trademarks can be registered for a term of ten years and can be extended for another ten years if requested upon expiration of the first or any renewed ten-year term. The PRC Trademark Law has adopted a “first-to-file” principle with respect to trademark registration. Where a trademark for which a registration application has been made is identical or similar to another trademark which has already been registered or been subject to a preliminary examination and approval for use on the same type of or similar commodities or services, the application for such trademark registration may be rejected. Any person applying for the registration of a trademark may not prejudice the existing right first obtained by others, nor may any person register in advance a trademark that has already been used by another party and has already gained a “sufficient degree of reputation” through such other party’s use. Trademark license agreements must be filed with the Trademark Office or its regional offices. We are currently using at no expense two trademarks registered in China and owned by Mr. Anyuan Sun. Meanwhile, we have successfully applied on our own name two trademarks in 2015, for both of which we have obtained the certificate issued by the authority (SAIC).

Regulationson Copyright and Software Products

Under the Copyright Law of the PRC issued by the NPC Standing Committee on September 7, 1990, which has been replaced by its latest amendment on June 1 2020, works of Chinese citizens, legal persons or other organizations, whether published or not, enjoy copyright in their works, which include, among others, works of literature, art, natural science, social science, engineering technology and computer software. Similarly, under the Computer Software Protection Regulations issued by the State Council on June 4, 1991, last amended on January 30, 2013 and effective on March 1, 2013, Chinese citizens, legal persons and other organizations shall enjoy copyright on the software they develop, regardless of whether the software has been released publicly. Software copyright commences from the date on which the development of the software is completed. A software copyright owner may register with the software registration institution recognized by the copyright administration department of the State Council of the PRC. A registration certificate issued by the software registration institution is a preliminary proof of the registered items. The protection period for software copyright of a legal person or other organizations shall be fifty years, concluding on December 31 of the fiftieth year after the software’s initial release. In order to further implement the Computer Software Protection Regulations, the National Copyright Administration issued the Measures for the Registrations of Computer Software Copyright effective on February 20, 2002, which provides procedures for software copyright registration, license contract registration and transfer contract registration. The Copyright Protection Center of the PRC is mandated as the software registration institution under the regulations.

EmploymentLaws

In accordance with the PRC National Labor Law, which became effective in January 1995, and the PRC Labor Contract Law, which became effective in January 2008, as amended subsequently in 2012, employers must execute written labor contracts with full-time employees in order to establish an employment relationship. All employers must compensate their employees equal to at least the local minimum wage standards. All employers are required to establish a system for labor safety and sanitation, strictly abide by state rules and standards and provide employees with appropriate workplace safety training. In addition, employers in China are obliged to pay contributions to the social insurance plan and the housing fund plan for employees.

We have entered into employment agreements with all of our full-time employees. We have contributed to the basic and minimum social insurance plan. Due to a high employee turnover rate in our industry, it is difficult for us to comply fully with the law. While we believe we have made adequate provision of such outstanding amounts of contributions to such plans in our financial statements, any failure to make sufficient payments to such plans would be in violation of applicable PRC laws and regulations and, if we are found to be in violation of such laws and regulations, we could be required to make up the contributions for such plans as well as to pay late fees and fines.

Overview

Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd (“Nisun International” or the “Company”), formerly known as Hebron Technology Co., Ltd, is a holding company established under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on May 29, 2012. On September 22, 2020, the Company changed its name from “Hebron Technology Co., Ltd” to “Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd”, which the management believes more closely reflects the Company’s new financial services business. The Company is a holding company and conducts its business mainly through its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of the VIEs in the PRC.

The Company began to conduct its financial services business in 2019 through the Company’s newly acquired entities, Fintech (Shanghai) Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fintech”), Beijing Hengtai Puhui Information services Co., Ltd. (“Hengpu”), Shanghai Nami Financial Consulting Co., Ltd (“Nami Shanghai”) and their subsidiaries.

Hengpu and Fintech provide comprehensive financing solutions for small to medium-sized enterprises, while Nami facilitates the matching of investors and small to medium-sized enterprises. The Company commenced a technology-driven integrated supply chain solutions through Fintech and its subsidiaries in January 2020 by providing service that the lender and borrower together.

On May 31, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd. (“Nami Cayman”) for $25.34 million, consisting of $7.01 million (RMB 50 million) to be paid in cash and 1,562,726 shares of our common stock valued at $11.73 per share valued totaling $18.33 million, from Nami Cayman’s original shareholder. Prior to the acquisition, Nami Cayman effectively controlled Nami Shanghai through a series of agreements.

On November 30, 2020, the Company completed the disposition of its manufacturing and installation business. The Company sold all its equity interests in its subsidiary, Hong Kong Xibolun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Xibolun HK”) to Wise Metro Development Co., Ltd. for consideration of approximately $15.0 million (RMB 98.3 million), a company owned by the prior executive officer of the Company. As a result of the disposition, the Company sold all the equity interests it held in Zhejiang Xibolun Automation Project Technology Co., Ltd, Wenzhou Xibolun Fluid Equipment Co., Ltd., and Xuzhou Weijia Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The manufacturing and installation business has been presented as discontinued operations (“Discontinued Operations”) retroactively for the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) surfaced. COVID-19 has spread rapidly to many parts of the PRC and other parts of the world in the first quarter of 2020, which has caused significant volatility in the PRC and international financial markets. For fiscal year 2020 and subsequent period up to the date of this report, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material negative impact on the Company’s financial services business. The extent of the impact on the Company’s fiscal 2021 results will be dependent on future developments such as the length and severity of the crisis, the potential resurgence of the crisis, future government actions in response to the crisis and the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and capital markets, among many other factors, all of which remain highly uncertain and unpredictable. Given this uncertainty, the Company is currently unable to quantify the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s future operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations if the current situation continues. For fiscal year 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in material adverse effects on the Company’s discontinued manufacturing and installation business. During the temporary business closure period in the Spring of 2020, employees had very limited access to the Company’s manufacturing facilities, and as a result, the Company experienced difficulty providing manufacturing and installation services. In addition, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, some of the Company’s customers and suppliers experienced financial distress, delayed or defaulted on their payments, reduced the scale of their business, and suffered disruptions in their business, which in turn had caused further adverse impact on the manufacturing and installation business. On November 30, 2020, the Company disposed of the manufacturing and installation business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses are comprised of indirect advertising and marketing costs, office rent and expenses, costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage the Company’s business activities, and professional fees paid to third parties.

For fiscal year 2020, the Company incurred selling expenses of approximately $3.2 million, as compared to approximately $0.1 million for fiscal year 2019, an increase of approximately $3.1 million. The increase in expenses was mainly due to the fact that the Company’s newly acquired subsidiary, Nami, incurred advertising and marketing expenses of $2.6 million in fiscal 2020 to promote its business.

For fiscal year 2020, the Company incurred general and administrative expenses of approximately $8.2 million, as compared to approximately $1.1 million for fiscal year 2019, representing an increase of approximately $7.1 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly because (i) more labor and managerial expenses incurred in fiscal 2020 mainly because the Company started to conduct its financial services business in July 2019, (ii) the Company spent more in professional fees related to mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in fiscal 2020, and (iii) the Company incurred share-based compensation expenses of approximately $1.1 million, compared to in 2019.

For fiscal 2020, our research and development (R&D) expenses were $0.8 million, representing an increase of $0.6 million, compared to $0.2 million in R&D expenses in fiscal 2019. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily attributable to the R&D in the development of our supply chain financing and other financing services APPs and platform in 2020.

Otherincome (expense), net

Other income (expense), net, is used to record our non-operating income and expenses, interest income and expenses, investment income and other income and expenses.

For fiscal year 2020, the Company had a net other income of 0.8 million, as compared to none for fiscal year 2019. The increase was due to an increase in investment income from the short-term investment and interest income from loans to third parties.

Incometax expense (benefit)

For fiscal year 2020 and 2019, Hengpu was recognized as a High-Technology (“High-Tech”) Company by the Chinese government and subject to a reduced income tax rate of 15%, a reduction from the normal unified rate of 25%. The High-Tech certificate is valid for three years starting from November 2018 and subject to renewal. In fiscal year 2020, Fintech was recognized as a High-Tech Company and is subject to a reduced income tax rate of 15%. In accordance with the implementation rules of the Income Tax Law of the PRC, for the enterprises newly established in the Horgos Development Zone within the scope of “Catalogue of EIT Incentives for Industries Specially Encouraged for Development by Poverty Areas of Xinjiang”, the enterprise income from income tax shall be exempt for five years beginning from the first year in which the manufacturing or business operational revenue is earned. Khorgos is established in the Horgos Development Zone and its income is eligible to be exempt for five years starting from 2019. The Company’s remaining subsidiaries, VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs are subject to corporate income tax at the unified rate of 25%.

For fiscal year 2020, income tax expense was $0.9 million, as compared to $0.1 million of income tax benefit for fiscal year 2020, which was mainly because the Company realized an income before taxes of approximately $10.9 million, compared with an income before tax of approximately $1.2 million in fiscal 2019. The effective tax rate in fiscal 2020 was approximately 8.7%, compared to the effective tax rate of approximately negative 4.7% for fiscal year 2019.

Netincome from continuing operations

For fiscal year 2020, the Company had a net income from continuing operations of $9.9 million, compared to the net income of $1.2 million for fiscal year 2019, representing an increase of $8.7 million. The increase in net income was mainly due to the fact that the Company began to conduct its financial services business in July 2019 through the Company’s newly acquired entities, Fintech, Hengpu and Nami Shanghai and their subsidiaries.

Netloss from discontinued operations

For fiscal year 2020 and 2019, the Company had a loss from discontinued operations of $23.0 million and a gain of $1.5 million from the equipment and engineering business, respectively. The net loss was mainly due to an impairment loss of $22.4 million on the equipment and engineering business’s assets because of its continuous losses.

Netincome (loss)

For fiscal year 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $13.1 million, as compared to a net income of approximately $2.7 million for fiscal year 2019. This change was a result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.

For fiscal year 2020, the net loss of $13.1 million was primarily derived from $9.9 million of net income from the Company’s financial services business offset by the $23.0 million of net loss from discontinued operations.

Netincome (loss) per share

For fiscal year 2020, the net loss per share was $0.71, compared to a net income per share of $0.17 for fiscal year 2019. The net income per share from continuing operation was $0.53 for fiscal year 2020, compared to $0.08 for fiscal year 2019, representing the increase of $0.45 per share.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $22.2 million, compared to $2.8 million as of December 31, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to $2.2 million from operating activities, $19.1 million from financing activities, against $4.7 million used in investing activities.

In assessing our liquidity, the Company monitors and analyzes our cash on-hand and our operating and capital expenditure commitments. Our liquidity needs are to meet our working capital requirements, operating expenses, and capital expenditure obligations.

Based on the above considerations, management is of the opinion that we have sufficient funds to meet our working capital requirements for the next twelve months from the date of this report.

Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China and all of our revenues, expenses, and cash are denominated in Renminbi (RMB). RMB is subject to the exchange control regulation in China and, as a result, we may have difficulty distributing any dividends outside of China due to PRC exchange control regulations that restrict its ability to convert RMB into U.S. Dollars.

Under applicable PRC regulations, foreign-invested enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, an enterprise in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until the cumulative amount of such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. As of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the statutory reserve balance for the Company’s entities established in the PRC was $2,190,847 (RMB 15,126,025) and $516,193 (RMB 3,593,632), respectively. The board of directors of a foreign-invested enterprise has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation. Under PRC law, RMB is currently convertible into U.S. Dollars under a company’s “current account,” which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, without prior approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), but is not from a company’s “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investments and loans, without the prior approval of the SAFE.

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends to our shareholders. We did not pay any dividends out of our retained earnings for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Our Board of Directors may declare dividends in the future after taking into account our operations, earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability and other factors as it may deem relevant at such time. Any declaration and payment, as well as the amount of dividends will be subject to our Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended, and applicable PRC, BVI and U.S. securities laws and regulations

Recentlyissued and adopted accounting pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses onFinancial Instruments. The standard’s main goal is to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The effective date for all public companies, except smaller reporting companies, is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The effective date for all other entities is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for the Company for the annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2022 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. This guidance addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and provides clarification of the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. This standard is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2022 including interim periods within the fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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

Electionof Officers

Our executive officers are elected by, and serve at the discretion of, our board of directors. There is no family relationship among any of our directors or executive officers.

Boardof Directors and Board Committees

Our board of directors consists of seven (7) directors. We expect that all current directors will continue to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders at which their respective class of directors is re-elected or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. A majority of our Board of Directors (namely, Mr. Christian DeAngelis, Mr. Xiaofeng Ma, Mr. Sheng Tang and Ms. Haiying Xiang) are independent, as such term is defined by The Nasdaq Capital Market.

73

The directors are divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as the then total number of directors permits. Class II directors shall face re-election at our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2021 and every three years thereafter. Class III directors shall face re-election at our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2022 and every three years thereafter. Class I directors shall face re-election at our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2023 and every three years thereafter.

If the number of directors changes, any increase or decrease will be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly as possible. Any additional directors of a class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class will hold office for a term that coincides with the remaining term of that class. Decreases in the number of directors will not shorten the term of any incumbent director. These board provisions could make it more difficult for third parties to gain control of our company by making it difficult to replace members of the Board of Directors.

A director may vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he is interested, provided, however that the nature of the interest of any director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him at or prior to its consideration and any vote on that matter. A general notice or disclosure to the directors or otherwise contained in the minutes of a meeting or a written resolution of the directors or any committee thereof of the nature of a director’s interest shall be sufficient disclosure and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction. A director may be counted for a quorum upon a motion in respect of any contract or arrangement which he shall make with our company, or in which he is so interested and may vote on such motion.

Mr. Xiaoyun Huang currently holds both the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. We do not have a lead independent director because we believe our independent directors are encouraged to freely voice their opinions on a relatively small company board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate because we are a relatively small company; as such we deem it appropriate to be able to benefit from the guidance of Mr. Sun as both our principal executive officer and Chairman of the Board. Our Board of Directors plays a key role in our risk oversight. The Board of Directors makes all relevant Company decisions. As a smaller company with a relatively small board of directors, we believe it is appropriate to have the involvement and input of all of our directors in risk oversight matters.

BoardCommittees

We have established three standing committees under the board: the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating committee. The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes of our Company and audits of the financial statements of our Company, including the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of our independent auditors. The compensation committee of the board of directors reviews and makes recommendations to the board regarding our compensation policies for our officers and all forms of compensation, and also administers our incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans (but our board retains the authority to interpret those plans). The nominating committee of the board of directors is responsible for the assessment of the performance of the board, considering and making recommendations to the board with respect to the nominations or elections of directors and other governance issues. The nominating committee considers diversity of opinion and experience when nominating directors.

Haiying Xiang qualifies as an audit committee financial expert and she is the chair of the audit committee. Christian DeAngelis and Xiaofeng Ma serve on the audit committee. Xiaofeng Ma is the chair of the compensation committee. Christian DeAngelis and Sheng Tang serve on the compensation committee. Sheng Tang is the chair of the nominating committee. Xiaofeng Ma and Haiying Xiang are members of the nomination committee, Each member of the three committees is an independent director.

Dutiesof Directors

Under British Virgin Islands law, our directors have a duty to act honestly, in good faith and with a view to our best interests. Our directors also have a duty to exercise the care, diligence and skills that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. We have the right to seek damages if a duty owed by our directors is breached.

74

The functions and powers of our board of directors include, among others:

appointing officers and<br> determining the term of office of the officers;
authorizing the payment<br> of donations to religious, charitable, public or other bodies, clubs, funds or associations as deemed advisable;
--- ---
exercising the borrowing<br> powers of the company and mortgaging the property of the company;
--- ---

--- ---

InterestedTransactions

A director may vote, attend a board meeting or sign a document on our behalf with respect to any contract or transaction in which he or she is interested. A director must promptly disclose the interest to all other directors after becoming aware of the fact that he or she is interested in a transaction we have entered into or are to enter into. A general notice or disclosure to the board or otherwise contained in the minutes of a meeting or a written resolution of the board or any committee of the board that a director is a shareholder, director, officer or trustee of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company will be sufficient disclosure, and, after such general notice, it will not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

Remunerationand Borrowing

The directors may receive such remuneration as our board of directors may determine from time to time. Each director is entitled to be repaid or prepaid all traveling, hotel and incidental expenses reasonably incurred or expected to be incurred in attending meetings of our board of directors or committees of our board of directors or shareholder meetings or otherwise in connection with the discharge of his or her duties as a director. The compensation committee will assist the directors in reviewing and approving the compensation structure for the directors. Our board of directors may exercise all the powers of the company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge our undertakings and property or any part thereof, to issue debentures, debenture stock and other securities whenever money is borrowed or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

Qualification

There are no membership qualifications for directors. Further, there are no share ownership qualifications for directors unless so fixed by us in a general meeting. There are no other arrangements or understandings pursuant to which our directors are selected or nominated.

Limitationof Director and Officer Liability

Under British Virgin Islands law, each of our directors and officers, in performing his or her functions, is required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. British Virgin Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the British Virgin Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.

Under our memorandum and articles of association, we may indemnify our directors, officers and liquidators against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceedings to which they are party or are threatened to be made a party by reason of their acting as our director, officer or liquidator. To be entitled to indemnification, these persons must have acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interest of the company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, they must have had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. Such limitation of liability does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. These provisions will not limit the liability of directors under United States federal securities laws.

75

We may indemnify any of our directors or anyone serving at our request as a director of another entity against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings. We may only indemnify a director if he or she acted honestly and in good faith with the view to our best interests and, in the case of criminal proceedings, the director had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. The decision of our board of directors as to whether the director acted honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and as to whether the director had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful, is in the absence of fraud sufficient for the purposes of indemnification, unless a question of law is involved. The termination of any proceedings by any judgment, order, settlement, conviction or the entry of no plea does not, by itself, create a presumption that a director did not act honestly and in good faith and with a view to our best interests or that the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. If a director to be indemnified has been successful in defense of any proceedings referred to above, the director is entitled to be indemnified against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceedings.

We may purchase and maintain insurance in relation to any of our directors or officers against any liability asserted against the directors or officers and incurred by the directors or officers in that capacity, whether or not we have or would have had the power to indemnify the directors or officers against the liability as provided in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for our directors, officers or persons controlling our company under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Involvementin Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, nor has any been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Related Party Transactions,” our directors and officers have not been involved in any transactions with us or any of our affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Codeof Business Conduct and Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to the Company’s directors, officers, employees and advisors. The Code of Ethics is attached as an exhibit to this annual report. We have also posted a copy of our code of business conduct and ethics on our website at https://www.fintaike.com/.

Each of the named officers will be measured by a series of performance criteria by the board of directors, or the compensation committee on a yearly basis. Such criteria will be set forth based on certain objective parameters such as job characteristics, required professionalism, management skills, interpersonal skills, related experience, personal performance and overall corporate performance.

Our board of directors has not adopted or established a formal policy or procedure for determining the amount of compensation paid to our executive officers. The board of directors will make an independent evaluation of appropriate compensation to key employees, with input from management. The board of directors has oversight of executive compensation plans, policies and programs.

Equity-BasedCompensation

In addition to base salary, we also offer certain equity-based incentive compensation awards to employees, directors or consultants. Our existing stock-based incentive compensation plan, the 2019 One Million Share Incentive Plan, was approved by our Board of Directors on November 20, 2019 and ratified by shareholders on December 20, 2019. This plan serves as the primary vehicle by which we offer long-term incentives and rewards to our executive officers and key employees. We regard the 2019 stock incentive plan as a key retention tool. Retention serves as an important factor in our determination of the type of award to grant and the number of underlying shares that are granted in connection with that award.

EmploymentAgreements

Our employment agreements with our officers generally provide for employment for a specific term (typically approximately two years at a time) and pay annual salary, health insurance, pension insurance, and paid vacation and family leave time. The agreement may be terminated by either party as permitted by law. In the event of a breach or termination of the agreement by our company, we may be obligated to pay the employee twice the ordinary statutory rate. In the event of a breach or termination causing loss to our company by the employee, the employee may be required to indemnify us against loss.

ITEM 8. Financial Information
A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information
--- ---

Please refer to Item 18.

We incorporate by reference in the Registration Statement on Form F-8 (File No. 333- 236843) our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, which appears in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Legaland Administrative Proceedings

We are currently a party to one legal proceeding. A shareholder class action lawsuit has been filed against us with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York which is currently pending. On June 3, 2020, a short seller issued a report alleging that, among other things, the private placement we consummated in December 2019, Hengpu and Nami acquisitions were related party transactions which we failed to disclose. We had conducted an independent investigation by special counsel that concluded that the allegations were substantially unfounded. A shareholder class action lawsuit was filed against us and certain of our directors and officers. On March 19, 2021, we submitted a motion to the court to dismiss the lawsuit. No decision has been made by the court, and it is unclear when a decision will be made. Although the ultimate outcome is uncertain at this time, we will defend our position vigorously and believe that the ultimate outcome will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Except the above proceeding, we are not aware of any other pending or threatened material legal or administrative proceedings against us. We may from time to time become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.

DividendPolicy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common shares. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, capital requirements, financial conditions and future prospects and other factors the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Under British Virgin Islands law, we may only pay dividends from surplus (the excess, if any, at the time of the determination of the total assets of our company over the sum of our liabilities, as shown in our books of account, plus our capital), and we must be solvent before and after the dividend payment in the sense that we will be able to satisfy our liabilities as they become due in the ordinary course of business; and the realizable value of assets of our company will not be less than the sum of our total liabilities, other than deferred taxes as shown on our books of account, and our capital.

If we determine to pay dividends on any of our common shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our operating subsidiaries. Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to Xibolun HK only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of our subsidiaries in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Each of such entity in China is also required to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at the discretion of its board of directors. Although the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess of retained earnings of the respective companies, the reserve funds are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation. Our subsidiaries in China are required to set aside statutory reserves and have done so.

In addition, pursuant to the EIT Law and its implementation rules, dividends generated after January 1, 2008 and distributed to us by our PRC subsidiaries are subject to withholding tax at a rate of 10% unless otherwise exempted or reduced according to treaties or arrangements between the PRC central government and governments of other countries or regions where the non-PRC-resident enterprises are incorporated.

Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Specifically, under the existing exchange restrictions, without prior approval of SAFE, cash generated from the operations in China may be used to pay dividends to our company.

C. Material contracts

D. Exchange controls

ForeignCurrency Exchange

The principal regulations governing foreign currency exchange in China are the Foreign Exchange Administration Regulations. Under the PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, such as profit distributions and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, may be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. By contrast, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of foreign currency-denominated loans or foreign currency is to be remitted into China under the capital account, such as a capital increase or foreign currency loans to our PRC subsidiaries.

82

In August 2008, SAFE issued the Circular on the Relevant Operating Issues Concerning the Improvement of the Administration of the Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 142, regulating the conversion by a foreign-invested enterprise of foreign currency-registered capital into RMB by restricting how the converted RMB may be used. In addition, SAFE promulgated Circular 45 on November 9, 2011 in order to clarify the application of SAFE Circular 142. Under SAFE Circular 142 and Circular 45, the RMB capital converted from foreign currency registered capital of a foreign-invested enterprise may only be used for purposes within the business scope approved by the applicable government authority and may not be used for equity investments within the PRC. In addition, SAFE strengthened its oversight of the flow and use of the RMB capital converted from foreign currency registered capital of foreign-invested enterprises. The use of such RMB capital may not be changed without SAFE’s approval, and such RMB capital may not in any case be used to repay RMB loans if the proceeds of such loans have not been used.

In November 2012, SAFE promulgated the Circular of Further Improving and Adjusting Foreign Exchange Administration Policies on Foreign Direct Investment, which substantially amends and simplifies the current foreign exchange procedure. Pursuant to this circular, the opening of various special purpose foreign exchange accounts, such as pre-establishment expenses accounts, foreign exchange capital accounts and guarantee accounts, the reinvestment of RMB proceeds by foreign investors in the PRC, and remittance of foreign exchange profits and dividends by a foreign-invested enterprise to its foreign shareholders no longer require the approval or verification of SAFE, and multiple capital accounts for the same entity may be opened in different provinces, which was not possible previously. In addition, SAFE promulgated the Circular on Printing and Distributing the Provisions on Foreign Exchange Administration over Domestic Direct Investment by Foreign Investors and the Supporting Documents in May 2013, which specifies that the administration by SAFE or its local branches over direct investment by foreign investors in the PRC shall be conducted by way of registration and banks shall process foreign exchange business relating to the direct investment in the PRC based on the registration information provided by SAFE and its branches.

We typically do not need to use our offshore foreign currency to fund our PRC operations. In the event we need to do so, we will apply to obtain the relevant approvals of SAFE and other PRC government authorities as necessary.

SAFECircular 75

Under the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Financing and Roundtrip Investment Through Offshore Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 75, issued by SAFE on October 21, 2005 and its implementation rules, a PRC resident (whether a natural or legal person) is required to complete an initial registration with its local SAFE branch before incorporating or acquiring control of an offshore special purpose vehicle, or SPV, with assets or equity interests in a PRC company, for the purpose of offshore equity financing. The PRC resident is also required to amend the registration or make a filing upon (1) the injection of any assets or equity interests in an onshore company or undertaking of offshore financing, or (2) the occurrence of a material change that may affect the capital structure of a SPV. SAFE also subsequently issued various guidance and rules regarding the implementation of SAFE Circular 75, which imposed obligations on PRC subsidiaries of offshore companies to coordinate with and supervise any PRC-resident beneficial owners of offshore entities in relation to the SAFE registration process.

Regulationof Dividend Distribution

The principal laws, rules and regulations governing dividend distribution by foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC are the Company Law of the PRC, as amended, the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law and its implementation regulations and the Equity Joint Venture Law and its implementation regulations. Under these laws, rules and regulations, foreign-invested enterprises may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profit, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Both PRC domestic companies and wholly-foreign owned PRC enterprises are required to set aside as general reserves at least 10% of their after-tax profit, until the cumulative amount of such reserves reaches 50% of their registered capital. A PRC company is not permitted to distribute any profits until any losses from prior fiscal years have been offset. Profits retained from prior fiscal years may be distributed together with distributable profits from the current fiscal year.

83

E. Taxation

The following sets forth the material British Virgin Islands, Chinese and U.S. federal income tax consequences related to an investment in our Class A common shares. It is directed to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of our Class A common shares and is based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this annual report, all of which are subject to change. This description does not deal with all possible tax consequences relating to an investment in our Class A common shares, such as the tax consequences under state, local and other tax laws.

The following brief description applies only to U.S. Holders (defined below) that hold Class A common shares as capital assets and that have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. This brief description is based on the tax laws of the United States in effect as of the date of this annual report and on U.S. Treasury regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed, as of the date of this annual report, as well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below.

The brief description below of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to “U.S. Holders” will apply to you if you are a beneficial owner of shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes,

an individual who is a<br> citizen or resident of the United States;

Generally

Nisun International and Nisun BVI are tax-exempt companies incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Nami Cayman is tax-exempt company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Nisun HK and Nami Hong Kong are subject to Hong Kong profits tax rate. The rest of the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs in PRC are governed by PRC laws.

Our company pays PRC enterprise income taxes, value added taxes and business taxes in China for revenues from our subsidiaries, VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries (The business tax has been incorporated into VAT since May 1, 2016.).

People’sRepublic of China Enterprise Taxation

The following brief description of Chinese enterprise laws is designed to highlight the enterprise-level taxation on our earnings, which will affect the amount of dividends, if any, we are ultimately able to pay to our shareholders. See “Dividend Policy.”

PRC enterprise income tax is calculated based on taxable income determined under PRC accounting principles. The Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”), effective as of January 1, 2008, enterprises pay a unified income tax rate of 25% and unified tax deduction standards are applied equally to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises.

Fintech and Hengpu are recognized as a High-technology Company by the Chinese government and is subject to a favorable income tax rate of 15%. Both Fintech and Hengpu’s High-technology certificates are valid for three years and subject to renewal. In accordance with the implementation rules of the Income Tax Law of the PRC, for the enterprises newly established in the Horgos Development Zone within the scope of “preferential catalogue of income tax for key industries encouraged to develop in Xinjiang’s difficult areas”, the enterprise income tax shall be exempt for five years from the tax year of the first production and operations income. Khorgos is established in the Horgos Development Zone and its income tax is eligible to be exempt for five years starting from 2019. The Company’s other PRC subsidiaries, VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries are subject to corporate income tax at the PRC unified rate of 25%.

84

Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with “de facto management bodies” within the PRC is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income. If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we, NiSun BVI, NiSun HK, Nami Cayman, Nami HK, or any future non-PRC subsidiary should be classified as a PRC resident enterprise, then such entity’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax at a tax rate of 25%. In addition, under the EIT Law, payments from our subsidiaries and VIEs in PRC to us may be subject to a withholding tax. The EIT Law currently provides for a withholding tax rate of 20%. If NiSun HK or Nami HK is deemed to be a non-resident enterprise, then it will be subject to a withholding tax at the rate of 10% on any dividends paid by its Chinese subsidiaries to such entity. In practice, the tax authorities typically impose the withholding tax rate of 10% rate, as prescribed in the implementation regulations; however, there can be no guarantee that this practice will continue as more guidance is provided by relevant government authorities. We are actively monitoring the proposed withholding tax and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to minimize the corresponding tax impact.

According to the Sino-U.S. Tax Treaty which was effective on January 1, 1987 and aimed to avoid double taxation disadvantage, income that is incurred in one nation should be taxed by that nation and exempted from the other nation, but for the dividend that is generated in China and distributed to foreigner in other nations, a rate 10% tax will be charged.

Our Company will have to withhold that tax when we are distributing dividends to our foreign investors. If we do not fulfill this duty, we will receive a fine up to five times of the amount we are supposed to pay as tax or other administrative penalties from government. The worst case could be criminal charge of tax evasion to responsible persons. The criminal penalty for this offense depends on the tax amount the offender evaded, and the maximum penalty will be 3-7 years imprisonment plus fine.

PRCValue Added Tax

Pursuant to the Provisional Regulation of China on Value Added Tax and its implementing rules, issued in December 1993, all entities and individuals that are engaged in the businesses of sales of goods, provision of services and importation of goods into China are generally subject to a VAT at a rate ranging from 6% to 13% of the gross sales proceeds received, less any VAT already paid or borne by the taxpayer on the goods or services purchased by it and utilized in the production of goods or provisions of services that have generated the gross sales proceeds.

PRCBusiness Tax

Companies in China are generally subject to business tax and related surcharges by various local tax authorities at rates ranging from 3% to 20% on revenue generated from providing services and revenue generated from the transfer of intangibles. However, since May 1, 2016, the Business Tax has been incorporated into Value Added Tax in China, which means there will be no more Business Tax and accordingly some business operations previously taxed in the name of Business Tax will be taxed in the manner of VAT thereafter. In general, this newly implemented policy is intended to relieve many companies from heavy taxes under currently slowing down economy. In the case of our Chinese subsidiaries, even though the VAT rate ranges from 6% to 13%, with the deductibles the company may get in the business process, it will bear less burden than previous Business Tax.

BritishVirgin Islands Taxation

Under the BVI Business Companies Act as currently in effect, a holder of common shares who is not a resident of the British Virgin Islands is exempt from British Virgin Islands income tax on dividends paid with respect to the common shares and all holders of common shares are not liable to the British Virgin Islands for income tax on gains realized during that year on sale or disposal of such shares. The British Virgin Islands does not impose a withholding tax on dividends paid by a company incorporated or re-registered under the BVI Business Companies Act.

There are no capital gains, gift or inheritance taxes levied by the British Virgin Islands on companies incorporated or re-registered under the BVI Business Companies Act. In addition, shares of companies incorporated or re-registered under the BVI Business Companies Act are not subject to transfer taxes, stamp duties or similar charges.

There is no income tax treaty or convention currently in effect between the United States and the British Virgin Islands or between China and the British Virgin Islands.

85

CaymanIslands Taxation

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to our company levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or after execution brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is not a party to any double tax treaties. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

UnitedStates Federal Income Taxation

TaxTreaties

As above mentioned, according to the Sino-U.S. Tax Treaty which was effective on January 1, 1987 and aimed to avoid double taxation disadvantage, income that is incurred in one nation should be taxed by that nation and exempted from the other nation, but for the dividend that is generated in China and distributed to foreigners in other nations, a rate 10% tax will be charged.

Taxationof Dividends and Other Distributions on our Common Shares

Subject to the passive foreign investment company rules discussed below, the gross amount of distributions made by us to you with respect to the common shares (including the amount of any taxes withheld therefrom) will generally be includable in your gross income as dividend income on the date of receipt by you, but only to the extent that the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). The dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations.

With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individual U.S. Holders, dividends will be taxed at the lower capital gains rate applicable to qualified dividend income, provided that (1) the common shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, or we are eligible for the benefits of an approved qualifying income tax treaty with the United States that includes an exchange of information program, (2) we are not a passive foreign investment company (as discussed below) for either our taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year, and (3) certain holding period requirements are met. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Service authority, common shares are considered for purpose of clause (1) above to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for dividends paid with respect to our common shares.

Dividends will constitute foreign source income for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. If the dividends are taxed as qualified dividend income (as discussed above), the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced rate divided by the highest rate of tax normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by us with respect to our common shares will constitute “passive category income” but could, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, constitute “general category income.”

To the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), it will be treated first as a tax-free return of your tax basis in your Class A common shares, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds your tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain. We do not intend to calculate our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, a U.S. Holder should expect that a distribution will be treated as a dividend even if that distribution would otherwise be treated as a non-taxable return of capital or as capital gain under the rules described above.

Taxationof Dispositions of Common Shares

Subject to the passive foreign investment company rules discussed below, you will recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of a share equal to the difference between the amount realized (in U.S. dollars) for the share and your tax basis (in U.S. dollars) in the common shares. The gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, including an individual U.S. Holder, who has held the Class A common shares for more than one year, you will generally be eligible for reduced tax rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss that you recognize will generally be treated as United States source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

PassiveForeign Investment Company

A non-U.S. corporation is considered a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year if either:

at least 75% of its gross<br> income is passive income, defined as income from interest, dividends, rents, royalties, gains on property producing foreign personal<br> holding company income and certain other income that does not involve the active conduct of a trade or business; or
at least 50% of the value<br> of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets during a taxable year) is attributable to assets that produce<br> or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”).
--- ---

87

We will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets and earning our proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by value) of the stock.

Based on the market price of our common shares, the value of our assets and the composition of our assets and income, we believe that we were not a PFIC for our taxable year ended December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017. However, given the factual nature of the analyses and the lack of guidance, no assurance can be given. We do not expect to be a PFIC for our taxable year ending December 31, 2019. However, because PFIC status is a factual determination for each taxable year which cannot be made until the close of the taxable year, our actual PFIC status will not be determinable until the close of the taxable year and, accordingly, there is no guarantee that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

We must make a separate determination each year as to whether we are a PFIC. As a result, our PFIC status may change. In particular, because the value of our assets for purposes of the asset test will generally be determined based on the market price of our common shares, our PFIC status will depend in large part on the market price of our common shares. Accordingly, fluctuations in the market price of the common shares may cause us to become a PFIC. In addition, the application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects and the composition of our income and assets will be affected by how, and how quickly, we spend the cash we raised in our initial public offering. If we are a PFIC for any year during which you hold common shares, we will continue to be treated as a PFIC for all succeeding years during which you hold common shares. However, if we cease to be a PFIC, you may avoid some of the adverse effects of the PFIC regime by making a “deemed sale” election with respect to the common shares.

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold common shares, you will be subject to special tax rules with respect to any “excess distribution” that you receive and any gain you realize from a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of the common shares, unless you make a “mark-to-market” election as discussed below. Distributions you receive in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions you received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or your holding period for the common shares will be treated as an excess distribution. Under these special tax rules:

the excess distribution<br> or gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the common shares;
the amount allocated to<br> the current taxable year, and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary<br> income, and
--- ---
the amount allocated to<br> each other year will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for that year and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments<br> of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.
--- ---

The tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of disposition or “excess distribution” cannot be offset by any net operating losses for such years, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of the common shares cannot be treated as capital, even if you hold the common shares as capital assets.

A U.S. Holder of “marketable stock” (as defined below) in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election for such stock to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. If you make a mark-to-market election for the common shares, you will include in income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common shares as of the close of your taxable year over your adjusted basis in such common shares. You are allowed a deduction for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the common shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. However, deductions are allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on the common shares included in your income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in your income under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the actual sale or other disposition of the common shares, are treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment also applies to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss on the common shares, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or disposition of the common shares, to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included for such common shares. Your basis in the common shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. If you make a valid mark-to-market election, the tax rules that apply to distributions by corporations which are not PFICs would apply to distributions by us, except that the lower applicable capital gains rate for qualified dividend income discussed above under “Taxation of Dividends and Other Distributions on our Common shares” generally would not apply.

88

The mark-to-market election is available only for “marketable stock”, which is stock that is traded in other than de minimis quantities on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter (“regularly traded”) on a qualified exchange or other market (as defined in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations), including The NASDAQ Capital Market. If the common shares are regularly traded on The NASDAQ Capital Market and if you are a holder of common shares, the mark-to-market election would be available to you were we to be or become a PFIC.

Alternatively, a U.S. Holder of stock in a PFIC may make a “qualified electing fund” election with respect to such PFIC to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. A U.S. Holder who makes a valid qualified electing fund election with respect to a PFIC will generally include in gross income for a taxable year such holder’s pro rata share of the corporation’s earnings and profits for the taxable year. However, the qualified electing fund election is available only if such PFIC provides such U.S. Holder with certain information regarding its earnings and profits as required under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. We do not currently intend to prepare or provide the information that would enable you to make a qualified electing fund election. If you hold common shares in any year in which we are a PFIC, you will be required to file U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 8621 regarding distributions received on the common shares and any gain realized on the disposition of the common shares.

You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to your investment in our common shares and the elections discussed above.

InformationReporting and Backup Withholding

Dividend payments with respect to our common shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of our common shares may be subject to information reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and possible U.S. backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders who are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide such certification on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for refund with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and furnishing any required information.

Under the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act of 2010, certain United States Holders are required to report information relating to common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for common shares held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions), by attaching a complete Internal Revenue Service Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets, with their tax return for each year in which they hold common shares. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (including currency risk, price risk and cash flow and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Our overall risk management program focuses on preservation of capital and the unpredictability of financial markets and has sought to minimize potential adverse effects on our financial performance and position.

ForeignExchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our consolidated sales and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in the RMB. All of our assets are denominated in the RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our sales and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. Dollar and the RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB sales, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline.

Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the RMB has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar or the Euro in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market. The RMB depreciated approximately 2% in 2020.

InterestRate Risk

Our interest rate risk arises from short and long-term borrowings. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had no borrowings with variable rates and we were not exposed to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose us to fair value interest rate risk.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had no long-term interest-bearing assets or long-term interest-bearing liabilities.

CreditRisk

Our cash is invested primarily in savings and deposit accounts with original maturities of three months or less. Savings and deposit accounts generate a small amount of interest income.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, and accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, $25,263,391 and $2,781,506 of our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash was on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC, which the management believes are of high credit quality. In May 1, 2015, China’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions, such as commercial banks, established in China are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Group’s accounts, as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit. However, the Group believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in China and the Group believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Group’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments are financially sound based on public available information.

Accounts receivables are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby they are exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of its customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our product and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

Item 15. Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and<br> Procedures.
--- ---

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Security Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of December 31, 2020, the end of the fiscal year covered by this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective. Such conclusion is due to the presence of material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as described below.

(b) Management’s annual<br> report on internal control over financial reporting.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making its assessment, management used the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “2013 COSO Framework”). The 2013 COSO Framework outlines the 17 underlying principles and the following fundamental components of a company’s internal control: (i) control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Our management has implemented and tested our internal control over financial reporting based on these criteria and identified certain material weaknesses set forth below. Based on the assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2020, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting due to the existence of the following material weaknesses:

The Company does not have<br> adequate internal accounting personnel with sufficient knowledge of the US GAAP and SEC reporting standards, which could lead to<br> material misstatements being undetected in a timely manner.
(c) Attestation report of the<br> registered public accounting firm.

(d) Changes in internal control<br> over financial reporting.

The following changes in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting:

We have begun to maintain<br> written policies and procedures, and prepare Board minutes and resolutions for significant transactions on a timely basis. We believe<br> these efforts will improve our internal controls.

Although we believe there is room to improve our segregation of duties related to certain job responsibilities for initiating, authorizing, and recording of certain transactions, our ability to improve such segregation is limited as a small-size public company.

Item 16G. Corporate Governance

We are incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and our corporate governance practices are governed by applicable British Virgin Islands law. In addition, because our Class A common shares are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, we are subject to Nasdaq’s corporate governance requirements.

Other than as described in this section, our corporate governance practices do not differ from those followed by domestic companies listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635 generally provides that shareholder approval is required of U.S. domestic companies listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market prior to issuance (or potential issuance) of securities equaling 20% or more of the company’s common stock or voting power for less than the greater of market or book value. Notwithstanding this general requirement, NASDAQ Listing Rule 5615(a)(3)(A) permits foreign private issuers like the Company to follow their home country practice rather than this shareholder approval requirement. The Company, therefore, is not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with the potential to issue securities as described above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTINGFIRM<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Opinion on the Financial Statements<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We have audited the accompanying consolidated<br>balance sheets of Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd. (previously known as Hebron Technology Co., Ltd.) (the “Company”)<br>as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) income, changes<br>in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively<br>referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material<br>respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows<br>for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United<br>States of America.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Basis for Opinion<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>These financial statements are the responsibility<br>of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements<br>based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB)<br>and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable<br>rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We conducted our audits in accordance with the<br>standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated<br>financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we<br>engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding<br>of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s<br>internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Our audits included performing procedures to assess<br>the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures<br>that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the<br>consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by<br>management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide<br>a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>The critical audit matters communicated below<br>are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated<br>to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved<br>our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our<br>opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below,<br>providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Valuation of Investment in Limited Partnership<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>The Company holds a 99.9% equity interest in a<br>limited partnership (“LP”) that is engaged primarily investing in debt securities of private companies. The main asset of<br>the LP is the value of these investments. As discussed in Notes 2 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company reviews<br>this investment for possible impairment on an annual basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value<br>of the investment could be impaired. As of December 31, 2020, the value of this investment was approximately $15.7 million or 14.6% of<br>the Company’s total assets.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We identified the valuation of this investment<br>as a critical audit matter not only because of the unique nature of this asset and its materiality in the consolidated financial statements<br>but also the challenge, difficulty and extent of judgement involved in determining the fair value of this asset.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>The primary procedures we performed to address<br>this critical audit matter included the following. We evaluated the Company’s approach in assessing the fair value of this investment<br>and discussed with management its evaluation process, specifically the manner in which it conducts the assessment of the LP’s financial<br>condition. We obtained and reviewed the audited financial statements of the LP as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, noting<br>its critical accounting policies and financial results for the year ended 2020 and obtained an understanding of the procedures and analysis<br>performed by the LP’s audit firm.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Goodwill Valuation<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase<br>price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired net of liabilities assumed in a business acquisition.<br>The Company’s goodwill is approximately $25.2 million and represents approximately 23.2% of total assets. Goodwill is subject to<br>annual impairment tests, and if it is determined to be impaired, is to be written down to its estimated fair value.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We identified the Company's goodwill as a critical<br>audit matter not only because of the materiality in the consolidated financial statements but also due to the significant estimates, assumptions<br>and judgment management utilizes to determine if goodwill is impaired, especially considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This<br>required a high degree of auditor judgment and additional effort was required in performing the audit procedures to evaluate the methodology<br>and the reasonableness of related assumptions, as well as the inputs and calculations related to the forecasts of future revenues and<br>earnings in determining if goodwill was impaired.

F-3

The primary procedures we performed to address<br>this critical audit matter included the following. We obtained an understanding of management’s process to estimate the fair value<br>of goodwill and reviewed the key data and assumptions used in its determination of the fair value of goodwill. We evaluated management's<br>forecasts including revenues and earnings for reasonableness by comparing the forecasts to historical results, obtaining supporting evidence<br>for assumptions and estimates related to management's forecasts. We assessed the sensitivity of the Company's impairment conclusions to<br>changes in the forecasts, discount rates, and earnings multiples and evaluated the assumptions used by management, including testing the<br>underlying source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations by developing a range of independent estimates and comparing<br>those to the rates.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Business Acquisition<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>As discussed in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated<br>financial statements, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd on May 31, 2020 for approximately<br>$20.3 million (net of cash acquired of approximately $5.0 million) comprised of Company stock valued at approximately $18.3 million and<br>the balance to be paid in cash. The Company applied the acquisition method of accounting for the business combination which requires the<br>purchase price allocation to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, in each case based on estimates of their respective fair values<br>at the acquisition date. The purchase price paid in excess of the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We identified the Company’s business combination<br>as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and judgements in determining the fair values assigned to the acquired<br>assets and assumed liabilities especially considering management’s assumptions surrounding estimated future operating results and<br>cash flows. The Company, with the assistance of an independent valuation firm, determined the fair values using discounted cash flow and<br>market multiple analyses. These types of analyses require assumptions and estimates regarding industry and economic factors, the profitability<br>of future business strategies, discount rates, revenue growth rates and future cash flows. These significant estimates and assumptions<br>are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>The primary procedures we performed to address<br>this critical audit matter included the following. We obtained an understanding of management’s process to estimate the fair values<br>of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and reviewed the key data used in its fair value calculations. We also evaluated the key<br>controls used by management to develop its fair value estimates. We evaluated the appropriateness of specific key inputs supporting management’s<br>estimates, including revenue growth rates and future cash flows, and we obtained and reviewed the independent valuation report issued<br>by the independent valuation firm on the business, noting the valuation methodology and assumptions used in the determination of the related<br>fair value of the business as well as the relevant qualifications, and experience of the firm in the preparation of the valuation report.<br>We engaged a valuation specialist to assist us in assessing the reasonableness of the significant assumptions and valuation methodology<br>and its mathematical accuracy of the valuation report. We also reviewed the calculation of the valuation of the common stock issued.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>/s/ Wei, Wei & Co., LLP<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>We have served as the Company’s auditors since 2019.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Flushing, New York<br><br><br><br>May 3, 2021

NISUN

INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT GROUP CO., LTD AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES

TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Organizationand description of business

Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd (“Nisun International” or the “Company”), formerly known as Hebron Technology Co., Ltd, is an investment holding company established under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on May 29, 2012. On November 16, 2020, the Company officially changed its Nasdaq trading symbol to “NISN” and its name from “Hebron Technology Co., Ltd” to “Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd”, which the management believes more closely reflects the Company’s new financial services business. The Company conducts its business mainly through its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of the VIEs (collectively referred to as the “Group”) in the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’).

The Group began to conduct its financial services business in 2019 through the Group’s newly acquired entities, Fintech (Shanghai) Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fintech”), Beijing Hengtai Puhui Information services Co., Ltd. (“Hengpu”), Nami Shanghai Financial Consulting Co., Ltd (“Nami Shanghai”) and their subsidiaries. The Group provides a set of technology-driven customized financing solutions to small-and mid-size enterprises through Hengpu, Fintech, Nami Shanghai and their subsidiaries. Hengpu and Fintech provide comprehensive financing solutions for small to medium-sized enterprises, while Nami facilitates the matching of investors and small to medium-sized enterprises. The Group commenced a technology-driven integrated supply chain financing solutions through Fintech and its subsidiaries in January 2020 by involvement in bringing the lender and borrower together.

Acquisition of Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd (Note 3)

On May 31, 2020, the Group acquired 100% of Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd. (“Nami Cayman”) for $25.34 million, consisting of $7.01 million (RMB 50 million) to be paid in cash and 1,562,726 shares of our common stock issued at $11.73 per share valued at $18.33 million, to Nami Cayman’s original shareholders (See Note 3). Nami Cayman effectively controls Nami Shanghai through a series of contractual agreements (“VIE Agreements”).

Disposition of Hong Kong Xibolun Technology Co., Ltd (Note 4)

On November 30, 2020, the Group completed the disposition of its valve manufacturing and installation business. The Group sold all equity interests in its subsidiary, Hong Kong Xibolun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Hebron HK”) to Wise Metro Development Co., Ltd. (a company owned by the Company’s prior CEO and another officer) for consideration of approximately $14.95 million (RMB 98.3 million). As a result of the disposition, the Group sold all the equity interests it held in Zhejiang Xibolun Automation Project Technology Co., Ltd, Wenzhou Xibolun Fluid Equipment Co., Ltd., and Xuzhou Weijia Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The manufacturing and installation business have been presented as discontinued operations (“Discontinued Operations”) retroactively for the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) surfaced. COVID-19 has spread rapidly to many parts of the PRC and other parts of the world in the first quarter of 2020, which has caused significant volatility in the PRC and international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the PRC and international economies. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and subsequent period up to the date of this report, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material negative impact on the Group’s financial services business. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in material adverse effects on the Group’s discontinued manufacturing and installation business. During the temporary business closure period, employees had very limited access to the Group’s manufacturing facilities, and as a result, the Group experienced difficulty providing manufacturing and installation services on a timely basis. In addition, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, some of the Group’s customers and suppliers experienced financial distress, delayed or defaulted on their payments, reduced the scale of their business, and suffered disruptions in their business. On November 30, 2020, the Group disposed of the manufacturing and installation business.

The extent of the impact on the Group’s fiscal 2021 results will be dependent on future developments such as the length and severity of the crisis, the potential resurgence of the crisis, future government actions in response to the crisis and the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and capital markets, among many other factors, all of which remain highly uncertain and unpredictable. Given this uncertainty, the Group is currently unable to quantify the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group’s future operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations if the current situation continues.

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basisof presentation

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

Basisof consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIEs and the subsidiaries of the VIEs for which the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary.

A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders.

A consolidated VIE is an entity in which the Company, or its subsidiaries, through contractual arrangements, has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, bears the risks of and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the Company or its subsidiaries are the primary beneficiary of the entity.

All transactions and balances among the Group, its subsidiaries, the VIEs and subsidiaries of the VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation.

VIEcompanies

1) ContractualAgreements with VIE

The following is a summary of the VIE agreements:

Managementand Consulting Service Agreement.

Under the Consulting Services Agreements, the Group has the exclusive right to provide management and consulting and other services to the VIEs for a consulting service fee from the VIEs and agree to authorize the VIEs to use the trademarks, technologies and related intellectual property rights held by the Group. The VIEs agree to pay the Group or the designated agent of the Group for the management and consulting services in the amount equivalent to all the VIEs net profits after tax. The agreement shall be effective as of the date of agreement and shall remain effective until the date when the Group terminates such agreements and Fintech, Hengpu or Nami Shanghai cease to exist.

EquityInterest Pledge Agreements

Pursuant to the Equity Interest Pledge Agreements, each Shareholder of the VIEs agreed to pledge his equity interest in the VIEs to the Group to secure the performance of the VIEs’ obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements and any such agreements to be entered into in the future. Each shareholder of the VIEs agrees not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of or otherwise create any encumbrance on their equity interests in the VIEs without the prior written consent of the Group. The Pledges became effective on such date when the pledge of the Equity Interest contemplated herein were registered with the relevant Administration for Industry and Commerce (the “AIC”) and remain effective until all contract obligations have been fully performed and all secured indebtedness has been fully paid.

VotingRights Proxy Agreement.

Under the Voting Rights Proxy Agreement, each shareholder of the VIEs irrevocably authorizes the Group to exercise rights and powers as the shareholders of the VIEs, including but not limited to, convening and attending shareholders’ meetings, voting on all matters of the VIEs requiring shareholder approval and appointing directors and senior management members. The Voting Rights Proxy Agreements will remain in force unless otherwise terminated in writing by the Group or with the written consent of all parties.

F-11

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

ExclusiveCall Option Agreement.

Under the Exclusive Call Option Agreement, the VIEs and their shareholders have irrevocably granted the Group an exclusive option to purchase or authorize their designated persons to purchase all or part of each shareholder’s equity interests in the VIEs. The purchase price shall be equal to the minimum price required by the relevant PRC laws. Without prior written consent of the Group, the VIEs shall not among other things, amend their articles of association, sell or otherwise dispose of their assets or beneficial interests, enter into transactions which may adversely affect their assets, liabilities, business operations, equity interests and other legal interests, or merge with any other entities or make any investments, or distribute dividends. The Group has the right to transfer the rights and obligations pursuant to the Exclusive Call Option Agreement to any third party, which do not require any prior consent of the VIEs and their shareholders. The Exclusive Call Option Agreement will remain effective until the Group terminates this agreement with 30 days advance notice.

2) Risksin relation to the VIE structure

The Group believes that the contractual arrangements with its VIEs and their respective shareholders are in compliance with PRC laws and regulations and are legally enforceable. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Group’s ability to enforce the contractual arrangements. If the legal structure and contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government could:

revoke the<br> business and operating licenses of the Group’s PRC subsidiaries and VIEs;
discontinue<br> or restrict the operations of any related-party transactions between the Group’s PRC subsidiaries and VIEs;
--- ---
limit the Group’s<br> business expansion in China by way of entering into contractual arrangements;
--- ---
impose fines<br> or other requirements with which the Group’s PRC subsidiaries and VIEs may not be able to comply;
--- ---
require the<br> Group’s PRC subsidiaries and VIEs to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or
--- ---
restrict or<br> prohibit the Group’s use of the proceeds of a public offering to finance the Group’s business and operations in China.
--- ---

The Group’s ability to conduct its financial services business may be negatively affected if the PRC government were to carry out of any of the aforementioned actions. As a result, the Group may not be able to consolidate its VIEs in its consolidated financial statements as it may lose the ability to exert effective control over the VIEs – Fintech, Hengpu, and Nami Shanghai and their respective shareholders and it may lose the ability to receive the economic benefits from the VIEs. The Group, however, does not believe such actions would result in the liquidation or dissolution of the Group, its PRC subsidiaries and VIEs.

The interests of the shareholders of VIEs may diverge from that of the Group and that may potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the contractual terms, for example by influencing the VIEs not to pay the service fees when required to do so. The Group cannot assure that when conflicts of interest arise, shareholders of the VIEs will act in the best interests of the Group or that conflicts of interests will be resolved in the Group’s favor. Currently, the Group does not have existing arrangements to address potential conflicts of interest the shareholders of the VIEs may encounter in their capacity as beneficial owners and directors of the VIEs, on the one hand, and as beneficial owners and directors of the Group, on the other hand. The Group believes the shareholders of the VIEs will not act contrary to any of the contractual arrangements and the exclusive option agreements provide the Group with a mechanism to remove the current shareholders of the VIEs should they act to the detriment of the Group. The Group relies on certain current shareholders of the VIEs to fulfill their fiduciary duties and abide by laws of the PRC and act in the best interest of the Group. If the Group cannot resolve any conflicts of interest or disputes between the Group and the shareholders of the VIEs, the Group would have to rely on legal proceedings, which could result in disruption of its business, and there are substantial uncertainties as to the PRC legal system and the outcome of any such legal proceedings.

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

The following table sets forth the assets, liabilities, results of operations and changes in cash and cash equivalents of the VIEs and their subsidiaries taken as a whole, which were included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for continuing operations with intercompany balances and transactions eliminated between the VIEs and their subsidiaries:

Net cash (used in) investing activities $ (13,321,524 ) $ (3,132,684 )
Net cash provided by financing activities $ 4,051,162 $ 3,044,235

As of December 31, 2020, there were no consolidated assets of the VIEs that are collateral for the VIEs’ obligations and can only be used to settle the VIEs’ obligations. There were no creditors (or beneficial interest holders) of the VIEs that have recourse to the general credit of the Group in the normal course of business. The Group neither provides nor intends to provide additional financial or other support not previously contractually required to the VIEs and subsidiaries of the VIEs. Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the VIEs from transferring a portion of its net assets, equivalent to the balance of its paid-in capital, capital reserve and statutory reserves, to the Group in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Please refer to Note 18 for disclosure of restricted net assets.

Non-controllinginterests

Non-controlling interests are recognized to reflect the portion of the equity that is not attributable, directly, or indirectly, to the Group. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets and earnings and other comprehensive income (loss) are attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests. As of December 31, 2020, non-controlling interest relates to the 20% equity interest in Taiding.

Usesof estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements include: the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of inventory, realizability of deferred tax assets, costs to complete contracts, estimated useful lives and fair values in connection with the impairment of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets, and goodwill, accruals for income tax uncertainties, and the determination of fair values related to business acquisitions.

F-13

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Businesscombinations

The Group accounts for business combinations using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase method of accounting requires the consideration transferred to be allocated to the assets, including separately identifiable assets and liabilities the Group acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The consideration transferred in an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent consideration and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total acquisition cost, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of the acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in earnings as a bargain purchase gain.

The determination and allocation of fair values to the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests is based on various assumptions and valuation methodologies requiring considerable judgment from management. The most significant variables in these valuations are discount rates, terminal values, the number of years on which to base the cash flow projections, as well as the assumptions and estimates used to determine the cash inflows and outflows. The Group determines discount rates to be used based on the risk inherent in the related activity’s current business model and industry comparisons. Terminal values are based on the expected life of assets, the forecasted life cycle and forecasted cash flows over that period. The fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date is based on a valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Group.

Discontinuedoperations

A component of a reporting entity or a group of components of a reporting entity that are disposed or meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale, such as the management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the disposal group, should be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Discontinued operations are reported when a component of an entity comprising operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity is classified as held for disposal or has been disposed of, if the component either (1) represents a strategic shift or (2) have a major impact on an entity’s financial results and operations. Included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), the results from discontinued operations are reported separately from the income and expense from continuing operations and prior periods are presented on a comparative basis. In order to present the financial effects of the continuing operations and discontinued operations, revenues and expenses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated except for those revenues and expenses that are considered to continue after the disposal of the discontinued operations, if any.

Revenuerecognition

The Group adopted FASB ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Revenues are presented under ASC 606, and there was no adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2018 since there was no significant change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition upon adoption of ASC 606. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Group’s customers in an amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. All of the Group’s contracts with customers do not contain cancelable and refund-type provisions.

Under the guidance of ASC 606, the Group is required to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the Group satisfies its performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, the Group includes variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur. Revenues are recorded, net of sales related taxes and surcharges.

F-14

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Smalland medium enterprise financing solution

The Group earns one-time advisory fees from its services provided to small-and mid-size enterprises. The Group enters into one-time advisory fee agreements with small-and mid-size enterprises, underwriters, financial institutions and issuers, which specifies the key terms and conditions of the arrangement. Such agreements generally do not include rights of return, credits or discounts, rebates, price protection or other similar privileges. The Group earns a one-time advisory fee from its clients upon offerings completed on the PRC provincial or national asset exchanges or other designated markets. Revenue is calculated at a fixed charge rate based on the amount and length of the offering (prorated by the financing term). The Group believes such arrangement represents a performance obligation that is satisfied at a point of time, therefore, the underwriting related advisory fees are recognized as revenue upon the closing of the offerings.

Otherfinancing solutions

The Group also provides ongoing user management services to small and medium commercial banks and financial institutions in distributing and sourcing funds for their direct banking and other financial products in exchange for a recurring service fee. Recurring service agreements do not include rights of return, credits or discounts, rebates, price protection or other similar privileges. Recurring service fees are calculated as a fixed percentage of the qualified investments made by users during the contractual investment period of the direct banking and other financial products. Payment of recurring service fees by commercial banks and financial institutions are normally on a regular basis (typically quarterly or annually). The Group believes such arrangement requires the Group to provide ongoing management services including but not limited to direct banking account reconciliation between the financial institution and investors and maintaining investors’ account portfolios over the contractual term, which represents a performance obligation that the Group satisfies over time. Therefore, the recurring service revenue is recognized over the contract term on a straight-line basis.

Supplychain financing solution

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Group started to offer supply chain financing advisory services through Fintech and its subsidiaries by integrating the working capital needs of suppliers and merchants in the supply chain and assisting them to obtain sufficient funds.

One-timecommission fees: The Group provides fund sourcing services to suppliers and merchants in the supply chain in exchange for a one-time commission fee. The Group merely acts as an agent to facilitate the transactions and earns a commission fee based on the volume of products transacted through the supply chain. Pursuant to the agreements with related suppliers and merchants, the Group recognizes the one-time commission fee when the service is facilitated. Such agreements generally do not include rights of return, credits or discounts, rebates, price protection or other similar privileges.

Recurringsupply chain management service fees: The Group provides ongoing supply chain management services to suppliers in exchange for a recurring management fee. Recurring management fees are calculated based on a fixed charge rate on the financing amount facilitated for the supplier over the service period. Payment of recurring management fees are normally on semi-monthly or monthly basis. The Group believes such arrangement requires the Group to provide ongoing supply chain management services, including but not limited to vender account reconciliation on a periodic basis and monitoring purchase-sales transaction cycle and related payment information on a regular basis, which represents a performance obligation that the Group satisfies over time. Therefore, the recurring service revenue is recognized over the contract term on a straight-line basis.

Disaggregationof revenue

The Group derives revenue primarily from one-time commissions and recurring service fees paid by clients or financial product providers. The following tables show the revenue from financial services disaggregated by nature for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

For the year ended<br> <br>December 31 2020 For the year ended<br> <br>December 31,<br> <br>2019

Practicalexpedient

The Group has applied the practical expedient for certain revenue streams to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less or (ii) contracts for which the Group recognizes revenue in proportion to the amount the Group has the right to invoice for services performed.

Cashand cash equivalent

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, money market fund investments, time deposits, as well as highly liquid investments, which have original maturities of three months or less.

RestrictedCash

The Group had restricted cash of $62,947 and $25,016 at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which are primarily security deposits related to our financing services. In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts presented in the statement of cash flows.

Short-terminvestments

The Group’s short-term investments include the Group’s investments in wealth management products issued by commercial banks and financial institutions that have a stated maturity within one year and normally pay a prospective fixed interest rate. The wealth management products are unsecured and primarily invested in financial instruments with high credit ratings and good liquidity in the interbank and exchange markets, including but not limited to debt securities issued by financial institutions, central bank bills, interbank and exchange-traded bonds, and asset backed securities. The Group measures the short-term investments at fair value using the quoted subscription or redemption prices published or by discounting the future cash flows at the expected yield rate with reference to the expected benchmark yield rates of the wealth management product.

Fairvalue of financial instruments

The Group follows the provisions of FASB ASC Section 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 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 market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

F-16

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, receivables from supply chain financing, loans to third parties, accounts payable, advances from customers, taxes payable, due to related parties and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Group believes that the carrying amount of the investment in debt securities approximates fair value based on the terms of the investments and current market rates as the interest rates are reflective of the current market rates.

Transfers into or out of the fair value hierarchy classifications are made if the significant inputs used in the financial models measuring the fair value of the assets and liabilities became unobservable or observable in the current marketplace. These transfers are considered to be effective as of the beginning of the period in which they occur. The Group did not transfer any assets or liabilities in or out of Level 2 and Level 3 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Fairvalue measurements on a recurring basis

As of December 31, 2019, the Group did not have any financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of December 31, 2020, the financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Fair value<br><br>as of<br><br>December 31, Fair value measurement at reporting date

Short-term investments:
Wealth management products $ 4,680,843 $ - $ 4,680,843 $ -

Accountsreceivable

Accounts receivable is stated at the historical carrying amount net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. An allowance for uncollectable accounts is established based on the management’s assessment of the recoverability of accounts and other receivables. Judgment is required in assessing the realizability of these receivables, including the current credit worthiness of each customer and the related aging analysis. An allowance is provided for accounts when management has determined that the likelihood of collection is doubtful. The Group writes off accounts and contract receivables against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible.

Investmentin debt securities

The Group’s investments in debt securities that have a stated maturity and normally pay a prospective fixed rate of return. The Group classifies the investments in debt securities as held-to-maturity when it has both the positive intent and ability to hold them until maturity. Held-to-maturity investments are recorded at amortized cost and are classified as long-term or short-term according to their contractual maturity. Long-term investments are reclassified as short-term when their contractual maturity date is less than one year. Investments that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Investments that do not meet the criteria of held-to-maturity or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale, and are reported at fair value with changes in fair value deferred in other comprehensive income.

Longterm investments

FASB ASU 2016-01 (“ASU 2016-01”), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities amends certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The main provisions require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value through earnings, unless they qualify for a measurement alternative. The Group adopted the new financial instruments accounting standard on January 1, 2019. Prior to January 1, 2019, the Group did not have any long-term investments, so the adoption of ASU 20106-01 did not have any material impact to the Group’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Equityinvestments without readily determinable fair values

After the adoption of this new accounting standard, the Group elected to record equity investments without readily determinable fair values and not accounted for under the equity method at cost, less impairment, adjusted for subsequent observable price changes on a nonrecurring basis, and report changes in the carrying value of the equity investment in current earnings. Changes in the carrying value of the equity investment are required to be made whenever there are observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Reasonable efforts are be made to identify price changes that are known or that can reasonably be known.

Equityinvestments with readily determinable fair values

Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are measured and recorded at fair value using the market approach based on the quoted prices in active markets at the reporting date.

Equityinvestments accounted for using the equity method

The Group accounts for its equity investments over which it has significant influence (usually 20% to 49.9%) but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control, using the equity method. The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the investment and recognizes investment income or loss for its share of the earnings or loss of the investee after the date of investment. The Group assesses its equity investment for other-than-temporary impairment by considering factors including, but not limited to, current economic and market conditions, operating performance of the entity, including current earnings trends and undiscounted cash flows, and other entity-specific information. The fair value determination, particularly for investments in a privately held entity, requires judgment to determine appropriate estimates and assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could affect the calculation of the fair value of the investment and determination of whether any identified impairment is other-than-temporary.

The investment held by the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 represented the Group’s 23.08% equity interest in Wenzhou Jinda Holding Co., Ltd (“Jinda”). The Group considers it has significant influence over Jinda due to the level of ownership and its participation in their significant business operating and strategic decisions. Accordingly, the Group accounts for the investment using the equity method. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Group did not receive any dividends from this investment. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group recognized its share of loss in Jinda of $46,659 and $0, respectively.

Propertyand equipment, net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of the related assets over their useful lives using the straight-line method, as follows:

Useful life
Transportation equipment 4 years
Office equipment 3 - 5 years
Electronic equipment 3 - 5 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of remaining lease term or life of assets

The Group charges maintenance, repairs and minor renewals directly to expense as incurred; major additions and betterments to equipment are capitalized.

Intangibleassets, net

Intangible assets acquired are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of the related assets over their useful lives using the straight-line method, as follows:

Useful life
Software 3 - 5 years
Trademark 3-5 years
Technology 5-10 years

The estimated useful lives of amortizable intangible assets are reassessed if circumstances occur that indicate the original estimated useful lives have changed.

F-18

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Impairmentof long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as significant adverse changes to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Group had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Group evaluates the impairment by comparing the carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Group recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. No impairment charge was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), simplifying the test for goodwill impairment”. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which required a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. The ASU is applicable for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The Group tests goodwill at least annually for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is the operating service, or one level below that operating service (the component level) if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management. However, components are aggregated as a single reporting unit if they have similar economic characteristics. The Group recognizes an impairment charge if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value and the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill. When a portion of a reporting unit is disposed, goodwill is allocated to the gain or loss on disposition based on the relative fair values of the business or businesses disposed and the portion of the reporting unit that will be retained. For the year ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Group did not recognize any goodwill impairment charges.

Leases

The Group adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) on January 1, 2019 by using the modified retrospective method and did not restate the prior periods. The Group has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Group not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date. The Group also elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, Lastly, the Group elected the short-term lease exemption for all contracts with lease terms of 12 months or less.

The Group determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at lease inception. For operating leases, the Group recognizes a “right of use” asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term on the consolidated balance sheets at commencement date. For finance leases, assets are included in property and equipment on the consolidated balance sheets. As most of the Group’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Group estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in the economic environment where the leased asset is located. The Group’s leases often include options to extend and lease terms include such extended terms when the Group is reasonably certain to exercise those options. Lease terms also include periods covered by options to terminate the leases when the Group is reasonably certain not to exercise those options. Lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Group recognized ROU assets and total lease liabilities (including current and non-current) for operating leases as of January 1, 2019 upon adoption.

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Stock-basedcompensation

The Group recognizes share based compensation based on the fair value of equity awards on the date of the grant, with compensation expense recognized using a straight-line vesting method over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination rates. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of an option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is based on the Group’s current and expected dividend policy.

Researchand development expenses

Research and development expenses mainly consist of salary and welfare benefits and bandwidth costs incurred for the development and enhancement to the Group’s websites and platform applications. Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred.

Incometaxes

The Group’s subsidiaries in China are subject to the income tax laws of the PRC and Hong Kong. No taxable income was generated outside the PRC and Hong Kong for the year ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. The Group accounts for income tax under FASB ASC Section 740 which utilizes the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities versus the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are also provided for carryforward losses which can be used to offset future taxable income. Deferred income taxes will be recognized if significant temporary differences between tax and financial statements occur. A valuation allowance is established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Group provided a valuation allowance of $368,165 and $1,341,877 on the net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Group continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest related to underpayment of income taxes for uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. No penalties or interest relating to uncertain tax positions has been incurred during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. As of December 31, 2020, the tax years ended December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2020 for the Group’s PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

Under the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Income Tax on Enterprises promulgated by the PRC, income tax is payable by enterprises at a rate of 25% of their taxable income determined under PRC accounting rules. The Group believes that it has provided the best estimates of its accrued tax liabilities because those accruals are based on the prevailing tax rates stipulated under the laws.

Valueadded tax (“VAT”)

Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods and services, net of VAT. VAT is based on the gross sales price and VAT rates range from 6% to 13%, depending on the type of goods or service provided. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. The net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in taxes payable. All of the VAT returns filed by the Group’s subsidiaries in China, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.

F-20

Note2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Foreigncurrency translation

Since the Group operates primarily in the PRC, the Group’s functional currency is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The Group’s financial statements have been translated into the reporting currency of the United States Dollar. Assets and liabilities of the Group are translated at the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity is translated at the historical exchange rate when the transaction occurred. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the results of operations.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USDs at the rates used in translation. The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in creating the consolidated financial statements in this report:

December 31,2020 November 31,2020 December 31,2019
Balance sheet items, except for equity accounts US$1=RMB 6.5250 US$1=RMB 6.5760 US$1=RMB 6.9618
Items in the statements of operations and cash flows US$1=RMB 6.9042 US$1=RMB 6.9377 US$1=RMB 6.9081
Balance sheet items, except for equity accounts US$1=HKD 7.7534 US$1=HKD 7.7522 US$1=HKD 7.7894
Items in the statements of operations and cash flows US$1=HKD 7.7559 US$1=HKD 7.7563 US$1=HKD 7.8351

Comprehensiveincome (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of shareholders’ equity but are excluded from net income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of foreign currency translation adjustments resulting from the Group not using the U.S. dollar as its functional currencies.

Creditrisk and concentration

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019, $22,198,257 and $2,781,506 of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash from continuing operations was on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC, which the management believes are of high credit quality. On May 1, 2015, China’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions, such as commercial banks, established in China are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency placed with them for up RMB 500,000 (USD $72,000). Such Deposit Insurance Regulations would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Group’s accounts, as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the coverage limit. However, the Group believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in China and the Group believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Group’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments are financially sound based on public available information. Balances in excess of the insured amount at December 31, 2020 was approximately $24,628,000.

Accounts receivable is typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, and is thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Group’s assessment of its customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

Substantially all of the Group’s revenues are derived from customers that are located primarily in China. The Group has a concentration of its revenues with specific customers. For the year ended December 31, 2020, three customers accounted for 31%, 21% and 12%, of the Group’s total revenue from the financial service business. For the year ended December 31, 2019, one customer accounted for almost all of the Group’s total revenue from the financial services business.

Earnings(loss) per share

The Group computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, no dilutive outstanding instruments were included in the computation of diluted EPS.

Statementsof cash flows

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, cash flows from the Group are calculated based upon the local currencies and translated at the average exchange rates during the reporting period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the Group’s statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with current year presentation of discontinued operations.

Recentaccounting pronouncements

The Group considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses onFinancial Instruments. The standard’s main goal is to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The effective date for all public companies, except smaller reporting companies, is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The effective date for all other entities is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Group does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax laws. This standard is effective for the Group for the annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2022 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect any material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. This guidance addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and provides clarification of the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. This standard is effective for the Group beginning January 1, 2022 including interim periods within the fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect any material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no other recently issued accounting standards that should have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

Note3 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Acquisitionof Nami Cayman

The Group completed the acquisition of 100% of Nami Cayman on May 31, 2020 (the “closing date”). Nami Cayman effectively controls Nami Shanghai, a company that provides intermediate matching services to small-and mid-size enterprises and high-quality investors in the PRC. The Group believes the acquisition provides an opportunity for the Group to offer comprehensive financing solutions to small and medium size enterprises in the market with significant growth potential.

The Group’s acquisition of Nami Cayman was accounted for as business combination in accordance with FASB ASC 805. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the Group is required to pay cash consideration of approximately $7.0 million (RMB 50 million) within 12 months following the close of the transaction and issued 1,562,726 the Group’s Class A common shares to the original shareholders of Nami Cayman as purchase consideration. The fair value of common shares paid was approximately $18.3 million based on the weighted average of the closing share price of the Group for five trading days up to the date immediately prior to the signing date of the purchase agreement. Acquisition-related costs incurred for the acquisitions are not material. The following table summarizes the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which represents the net purchase price allocation at the date of the acquisition based on a valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Group:

May 31,<br><br>2020
Cash and cash equivalents acquired $ 4,990,754
Short-term investments 1,402,632
Accounts receivable, net 3,869.453
Prepayments and other current assets 621,735
Loans to third parties 5,484,531
Right-of-use assets 1,305,961

Taxes payable (1,172,980 )
Operating lease liabilities (1,308,864 )
Goodwill 12,324,856
Total consideration $ 25,338,682

The goodwill is attributable to the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired that cannot be recognized separately as identifiable assets and comprise (a) the assembled work force with their knowledge and experience in the industry and (b) the expected but unidentifiable business growth potential as a result of the synergy resulting from the acquisition. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The total revenue and net income from Nami Cayman that are included in the Group’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $16.2 million (RMB 114.3 million) and $3.0 million (RMB20.6 million), respectively.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects the combined results of operations of the Group and Nami Cayman for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, as if the acquisition of Nami Cayman had occurred on January 1, 2018, and after giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments. These pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what operating results would have been had the acquisition actually taken place as of the beginning of the periods presented and may not be indicative of future operating results.

Note4 — DISCONTINUUED OPERATIONS

On November 30, 2020, the Group sold all its equity interests in its subsidiary- Hong Kong Xibolun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Hebron HK”) to Wise Metro Development Co., Ltd. (an entity owned by the Group’s chief executive officer and another officer) for cash consideration of approximately $15.0 million (RMB 98.3 million), which was fully collected subsequently on April 9, 2021. The disposition resulted in a gain from disposition of $136,050 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The discontinued equipment and engineering business represent a strategic shift that has a significant effect on the Group’s operations and financial results, which trigger discontinued operations accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 205-20-45. The assets and liabilities related to the discontinued operations are classified as assets/liabilities of discontinued operations, while results of operations related to the discontinued operations, including comparatives, were reported as income (loss) from discontinued operations. The results of discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

Basisof presentation

Condensed financial information is used for the presentation of the Group, or the parent company. The condensed financial information of the parent company has been prepared using the same accounting policies as set out in the Group’s consolidated financial statements except that the parent company uses the equity method to account for investment in its subsidiaries and VIEs.

The parent company records its investment in its subsidiaries and VIEs under the equity method of accounting as prescribed in FASB ASC 323, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Equity method accounting ceases when the carrying amount of the investment, including any additional financial support, in a subsidiary and VIE is reduced to zero unless the parent company has guaranteed obligations of the subsidiary and VIE or is otherwise committed to provide further financial support. If the subsidiary and VIE subsequently reports net income, the parent company shall resume applying the equity method only after its share of that net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

The parent company’s condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Exhibit2.2

Descriptionof Securities

Registeredunder Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

As of December 31, 2020, NISUN INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT GROUP CO., LTD (“Nisun International,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) had one class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as follows:

Title of each class Symbol Name of each exchange on which registered
Class A common shares, par<br> value $0.001 per share NISN Nasdaq Capital Market

CommonShares

Under our memorandum and articles of association, as amended, the Company is authorized to issue a maximum of 50,000,000 common shares divided into (i) 40,000,000 Class A Common Shares of a nominal or par value of US$0.001 each and (ii) 10,000,000 Class B Common Shares of a nominal or par value of US$0.001 each. As of December 31, 2020, 20,555,129 Class A Common Shares were issued and outstanding and 0 Class B Common Share issued and outstanding. The Class A Common Shares are registered for trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol NISN.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the annual report on Form 20-F.

This Exhibit sets forth a description of our common shares and certain provisions of our memorandum and articles of association which are summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of our Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, which was previously filed as exhibit 1.1 to the Company’s current report on Form 6-K on November 16, 2020 (referred to hereafter as our “Memorandum and Articles”).

DividendDistributions

The holders of our common shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors subject to the BVI Business Companies Act.

Votingrights

Any action required or permitted to be taken by the shareholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of the shareholders entitled to vote on such action and may be effected by a resolution in writing. At each shareholder’s meeting, each shareholder who is present in person or by proxy (or, in the case of a shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative) will be entitled to one vote for each Class A common share which such shareholder holds and be entitled to five votes for each Class B Common Share which such shareholder holds on all matters subject to vote at each shareholders’ meeting of the Company.

Electionof directors

Delaware law permits cumulative voting for the election of directors only if expressly authorized in the certificate of incorporation. The laws of the British Virgin Islands, however, do not specifically prohibit or restrict the creation of cumulative voting rights for the election of our directors. Cumulative voting is not a concept that is accepted as a common practice in the British Virgin Islands, and we have made no provisions in our memorandum and articles of association to allow cumulative voting for elections of directors.

Meetings

We must provide written notice of all meetings of shareholders, stating the time, place and, in the case of a special meeting of shareholders, the purpose or purposes thereof, at least 7 days before the date of the proposed meeting to those persons whose names appear as shareholders in the register of members on the date of the notice and are entitled to vote at the meeting. Our board of directors shall call a special meeting upon the written request of shareholders holding at least 30% of our outstanding voting shares. In addition, our board of directors may call a special meeting of shareholders on its own motion. A meeting of shareholders held in contravention of the requirement to give notice is valid if shareholders holding at least 90 percent of the total voting rights on all the matters to be considered at the meeting have waived notice of the meeting and, for this purpose, the presence of a shareholder at the meeting shall constitute waiver in relation to all the shares which that shareholder holds.

The management of us is entrusted to our board of directors, who will make corporate decisions by board resolution. Our directors are free to meet at such times and in such manner and places within or outside the BVI as the directors determine to be necessary or desirable. A 3 days’ notice of a meeting of directors must be given. At any meeting of directors, a quorum will be present if half of the total number of directors is present, unless there are only 2 directors in which case the quorum is 2. If a quorum is not present, the meeting will be dissolved. If a quorum is present, votes of half of present directors are required to pass a resolution of directors.

As few as one third of our outstanding shares may be sufficient to hold a shareholder meeting. Although our memorandum and articles of association require that holders of at least one-third of our outstanding shares appear in person or by proxy to hold a shareholder meeting, to the extent we fail to have quorum on this initial meeting date, we can reschedule the meeting for the next business day or later, at which second meeting the holders of one third or more of our outstanding shares will constitute a quorum. As mentioned, at the initial date set for any meeting of shareholders, a quorum will be present if there are shareholders present in person or by proxy representing not less than one-third of the issued common shares entitled to vote on the resolutions to be considered at the meeting. A quorum may comprise a single shareholder or proxy and then such person may pass a resolution of shareholders and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person be a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid resolution of shareholder. If within two hours from the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition of shareholders, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the next business day in the jurisdiction in which the meeting was to have been held at the same time and place or to such other time and place as the directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third of the votes of the shares or each class or series of shares entitle to vote on the matter to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting shall be dissolved. No business may be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the commencement of business. If present, the chair of our board of directors shall be the chair presiding at any meeting of the shareholders.

2

A corporation that is a shareholder shall be deemed for the purpose of our memorandum and articles of association to be present in person if represented by its duly authorized representative. This duly authorized representative shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which he represents as that corporation could exercise if it were our individual shareholder.

Protectionof minority shareholders

We would normally expect British Virgin Islands courts to follow English case law precedents, which permit a minority shareholder to commence a representative action, or derivative actions in our name, to challenge (1) an act which is ultra vires or illegal, (2) an act which constitutes a fraud against the minority by parties in control of us, (3) the act complained of constitutes an infringement of individual rights of shareholders, such as the right to vote and pre-emptive rights and (4) an irregularity in the passing of a resolution which requires a special or extraordinary majority of the shareholders.

Pre-emptiverights

There are no pre-emptive rights applicable to the issue by us of new common shares under either British Virgin Islands law or our memorandum and articles of association.

Transferof common shares

Subject to the restrictions in our memorandum and articles of association and applicable securities laws, any of our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her common shares by written instrument of transfer signed by the transferor and containing the name and address of the transferee. Our board of directors may resolve by resolution to refuse or delay the registration of the transfer of any common share. If our board of directors resolves to refuse or delay any transfer, it shall specify the reasons for such refusal in the resolution. Our directors may not resolve or refuse or delay the transfer of a common share unless: (a) the person transferring the shares has failed to pay any amount due in respect of any of those shares; or (b) such refusal or delay is deemed necessary or advisable in our view or that of our legal counsel in order to avoid violation of, or in order to ensure compliance with, any applicable, corporate, securities and other laws and regulations.

3

Liquidation

If we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among our shareholders are more than sufficient to repay all amounts paid to us on account of the issue of shares immediately prior to the winding up, the excess shall be distributable pari passu among those shareholders in proportion to the amount paid up immediately prior to the winding up on the shares held by them, respectively. If we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among the shareholders as such are insufficient to repay the whole of the amounts paid to us on account of the issue of shares, those assets shall be distributed so that, to the greatest extent possible, the losses shall be borne by the shareholders in proportion to the amounts paid up immediately prior to the winding up on the shares held by them, respectively. If we are wound up, the liquidator appointed by us may, in accordance with the BVI Business Companies Act, divide among our shareholders in specie or kind the whole or any part of our assets (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose, set such value as the liquidator deems fair upon any property to be divided and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders.

Callson common shares and forfeiture of common shares

Our board of directors may from time to time make calls upon shareholders for any amounts unpaid on their common shares in a notice served to such shareholders at least 14 days prior to the specified time of payment. The common shares that have been called upon and remain unpaid are subject to forfeiture.

Redemptionof common shares

Subject to the provisions of the BVI Business Companies Act, we may issue shares on terms that are subject to redemption, at our option or at the option of the holders, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined by our memorandum and articles of association and subject to any applicable requirements imposed from time to time by, the BVI Business Companies Act, the SEC, The NASDAQ Capital Market, or by any recognized stock exchange on which our securities are listed.

Modificationsof rights

All or any of the special rights attached to any class of shares may, subject to the provisions of the BVI Business Companies Act, be amended only pursuant to a resolution passed at a meeting by a majority of the votes cast by those entitled to vote at a meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

Changesin the number of shares we are authorized to issue and those in issue

We may from time to time by resolution of our board of directors:

amend<br>our memorandum of association to increase or decrease the maximum number of shares we are authorized to issue;
subject<br>to our memorandum, divide our authorized and issued shares into a larger number of shares; and
--- ---
4
subject<br>to our memorandum, combine our authorized and issued shares into a smaller number of shares.

Untraceableshareholders

We are entitled to sell any shares of a shareholder who is untraceable, provided that:

all<br>checks or warrants in respect of dividends of these shares, not being less than three in number, for any sums payable in cash to the<br>holder of such shares have remained uncashed for a period of twelve years prior to the publication of the notice and during the three<br>months referred to in the third bullet point below;
we<br>have not during that time received any indication of the whereabouts or existence of the shareholder or person entitled to these shares<br>by death, bankruptcy or operation of law; and
--- ---
we<br>have caused a notice to be published in newspapers in the manner stipulated by our memorandum and articles of association, giving notice<br>of our intention to sell these shares, and a period of three months has elapsed since such notice.
--- ---
The<br>net proceeds of any such sale shall belong to us, and when we receive these net proceeds we shall become indebted to the former shareholder<br>for an amount equal to the net proceeds.
--- ---

Inspectionof books and records

Under British Virgin Islands Law, holders of our common shares are entitled, upon giving written notice to us, to inspect (i) our memorandum and articles of association, (ii) the register of members, (iii) the register of directors and (iv) minutes of meetings and resolutions of members, and to make copies and take extracts from the documents and records. However, our directors can refuse access if they are satisfied that to allow such access would be contrary to our interests. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Rightsof non-resident or foreign shareholders

There are no limitations imposed by our memorandum and articles of association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares. In addition, there are no provisions in our memorandum and articles of association governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

Issuanceof additional common shares

Our memorandum and articles of association authorizes our board of directors to issue additional common shares from authorized but unissued shares, to the extent available, from time to time as our board of directors shall determine.

5

Differencesin Corporate Law

The BVI Business Companies Act and the laws of the British Virgin Islands affecting British Virgin Islands companies like us and our shareholders differ from laws applicable to U.S. corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the material differences between the provisions of the laws of the British Virgin Islands applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders.

Mergersand similar arrangements

Under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, two or more companies may merge or consolidate in accordance with Section 170 of the BVI Business Companies Act. A merger means the merging of two or more constituent companies into one of the constituent companies and a consolidation means the uniting of two or more constituent companies into a new company. In order to merge or consolidate, the directors of each constituent company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation, which must be authorized by a resolution of shareholders.

While a director may vote on the plan of merger or consolidation even if he has a financial interest in the plan, the interested director must disclose the interest to all other directors of the company promptly upon becoming aware of the fact that he is interested in a transaction entered into or to be entered into by the company.

A transaction entered into by our company in respect of which a director is interested (including a merger or consolidation) is voidable by us unless the director’s interest was (a) disclosed to the board prior to the transaction or (b) the transaction is (i) between the director and the company and (ii) the transaction is in the ordinary course of the company’s business and on usual terms and conditions.

Notwithstanding the above, a transaction entered into by the company is not voidable if the material facts of the interest are known to the shareholders and they approve or ratify it or the company received fair value for the transaction.

Shareholders not otherwise entitled to vote on the merger or consolidation may still acquire the right to vote if the plan of merger or consolidation contains any provision which, if proposed as an amendment to the memorandum or articles of association, would entitle them to vote as a class or series on the proposed amendment. In any event, all shareholders must be given a copy of the plan of merger or consolidation irrespective of whether they are entitled to vote at the meeting to approve the plan of merger or consolidation.

The shareholders of the constituent companies are not required to receive shares of the surviving or consolidated company but may receive debt obligations or other securities of the surviving or consolidated company, other assets, or a combination thereof. Further, some or all of the shares of a class or series may be converted into a kind of asset while the other shares of the same class or series may receive a different kind of asset. As such, not all the shares of a class or series must receive the same kind of consideration.

After the plan of merger or consolidation has been approved by the directors and authorized by a resolution of the shareholders, articles of merger or consolidation are executed by each company and filed with the Registrar of Corporate Affairs in the British Virgin Islands.

6

A shareholder may dissent from a mandatory redemption of his shares, an arrangement (if permitted by the court), a merger (unless the shareholder was a shareholder of the surviving company prior to the merger and continues to hold the same or similar shares after the merger) or a consolidation. A shareholder properly exercising his dissent rights is entitled to a cash payment equal to the fair value of his shares.

A shareholder dissenting from a merger or consolidation must object in writing to the merger or consolidation before the vote by the shareholders on the merger or consolidation, unless notice of the meeting was not given to the shareholder. If the merger or consolidation is approved by the shareholders, the company must give notice of this fact to each shareholder within 20 days who gave written objection. These shareholders then have 20 days to give to the company their written election in the form specified by the BVI Business Companies Act to dissent from the merger or consolidation, provided that in the case of a merger, the 20 days starts when the plan of merger is delivered to the shareholder.

Upon giving notice of his election to dissent, a shareholder ceases to have any shareholder rights except the right to be paid the fair value of his shares. As such, the merger or consolidation may proceed in the ordinary course notwithstanding his dissent.

Within seven days of the later of the delivery of the notice of election to dissent and the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his shares at a specified price per share that the company determines to be the fair value of the shares. The company and the shareholder then have 30 days to agree upon the price. If the company and a shareholder fail to agree on the price within the 30 days, then the company and the shareholder shall, within 20 days immediately following the expiration of the 30-day period, each designate an appraiser and these two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser. These three appraisers shall fix the fair value of the shares as of the close of business on the day prior to the shareholders’ approval of the transaction without taking into account any change in value as a result of the transaction.

Shareholders’suits

There are both statutory and common law remedies available to our shareholders as a matter of British Virgin Islands law. These are summarized below:

Prejudicedmembers

A shareholder who considers that the affairs of the company have been, are being, or are likely to be, conducted in a manner that is, or any act or acts of the company have been, or are, likely to be oppressive, unfairly discriminatory or unfairly prejudicial to him in that capacity, can apply to the court under Section 184I of the BVI Business Companies Act, inter alia, for an order that his shares be acquired, that he be provided compensation, that the Court regulate the future conduct of the company, or that any decision of the company which contravenes the BVI Business Companies Act or our memorandum and articles of association be set aside.

7

Derivativeactions

Section 184C of the BVI Business Companies Act provides that a shareholder of a company may, with the leave of the Court, bring an action in the name of the company to redress any wrong done to it.

Justand equitable winding up

In addition to the statutory remedies outlined above, shareholders can also petition for the winding up of a company on the grounds that it is just and equitable for the court to so order. Save in exceptional circumstances, this remedy is only available where the company has been operated as a quasi partnership and trust and confidence between the partners has broken down.

Indemnificationof directors and executive officers and limitation of liability

British Virgin Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any provision providing indemnification may be held by the British Virgin Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.

Under our memorandum and articles of association, we indemnify against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings for any person who:

is<br>or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative<br>or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was our director; or
is<br>or was, at our request, serving as a director or officer of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another body corporate or<br>a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.
--- ---

These indemnities only apply if the person acted honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and, in the case of criminal proceedings, the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. This standard of conduct is generally the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Anti-takeoverprovisions in our memorandum and articles of association

Some provisions of our memorandum and articles of association may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company or management that shareholders may consider favorable, including provisions that provide for a staggered board of directors and prevent shareholders from taking an action by written consent in lieu of a meeting. However, under British Virgin Islands law, our directors may only exercise the rights and powers granted to them under our memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time, as they believe in good faith to be in the best interests of our company.

8

Directors’fiduciary duties

Under Delaware corporate law, a director of a Delaware corporation has a fiduciary duty to the corporation and its shareholders. This duty has two components: the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires that a director act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances. Under this duty, a director must inform himself of, and disclose to shareholders, all material information reasonably available regarding a transaction that is material to the company. The duty of loyalty requires that a director act in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. He must not use his corporate position for personal gain or advantage. This duty prohibits self-dealing by a director and mandates that the best interest of the corporation and its shareholders take precedence over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder and not shared by the shareholders generally. In general, actions of a director are presumed to have been made on an informed basis, in good faith and in the honest belief that the action taken was in the best interests of the corporation. However, this presumption may be rebutted by evidence of a breach of one of the fiduciary duties. Should such evidence be presented concerning a transaction by a director, a director must prove the procedural fairness of the transaction and that the transaction was of fair value to the corporation.

Under British Virgin Islands law, our directors owe the company certain statutory and fiduciary duties including, among others, a duty to act honestly, in good faith, for a proper purpose and with a view to what the directors believe to be in the best interests of the company. Our directors are also required, when exercising powers or performing duties as a director, to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonable director would exercise in comparable circumstances, taking into account without limitation, the nature of the company, the nature of the decision and the position of the director and the nature of the responsibilities undertaken. In the exercise of their powers, our directors must ensure neither they nor the company acts in a manner which contravenes the BVI Business Companies Act or our memorandum and articles of association, as amended and re-stated from time to time. A shareholder has the right to seek damages for breaches of duties owed to us by our directors.

Shareholderaction by written consent

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent by amendment to its certificate of incorporation. British Virgin Islands law provides that shareholders may approve corporate matters by way of a written resolution without a meeting signed by or on behalf of shareholders sufficient to constitute the requisite majority of shareholders who would have been entitled to vote on such matter at a general meeting; provided that if the consent is less than unanimous, notice must be given to all non-consenting shareholders. Our memorandum and articles of association permit shareholders to act by written consent.

9

Shareholderproposals

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a shareholder has the right to put any proposal before the annual meeting of shareholders, provided it complies with the notice provisions in the governing documents. A special meeting may be called by the board of directors or any other person authorized to do so in the governing documents, but shareholders may be precluded from calling special meetings. British Virgin Islands law and our memorandum and articles of association allow our shareholders holding not less than 30% of the votes of the outstanding voting shares to requisition a shareholders’ meeting. We are not obliged by law to call shareholders’ annual general meetings, but our memorandum and articles of association do permit the directors to call such a meeting. The location of any shareholders’ meeting can be determined by the board of directors and can be held anywhere in the world.

Cumulativevoting

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, cumulative voting for elections of directors is not permitted unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation specifically provides for it. Cumulative voting potentially facilitates the representation of minority shareholders on a board of directors since it permits the minority shareholder to cast all the votes to which the shareholder is entitled on a single director, which increases the shareholder’s voting power with respect to electing such director. As permitted under British Virgin Islands law, our memorandum and articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting. As a result, our shareholders are not afforded any less protections or rights on this issue than shareholders of a Delaware corporation.

Removalof directors

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director of a corporation with a classified board may be removed only for cause with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under our memorandum and articles of association, directors can be removed from office, with cause, by a resolution of shareholders or by a resolution of directors passed at a meeting of directors called for the purpose of removing the director or for purposes including the removal of the director.

Transactionswith interested shareholders

The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware public corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation, it is prohibited from engaging in certain business combinations with an “interested shareholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested shareholder. An interested shareholder generally is a person or group who or which owns or owned 15% or more of the target’s outstanding voting shares within the past three years. This has the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquirer to make a two-tiered bid for the target in which all shareholders would not be treated equally. The statute does not apply if, among other things, prior to the date on which such shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder. This encourages any potential acquirer of a Delaware public corporation to negotiate the terms of any acquisition transaction with the target’s board of directors. British Virgin Islands law has no comparable statute.

10

Dissolution;Winding Up

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless the board of directors approves the proposal to dissolve, dissolution must be approved by shareholders holding 100% of the total voting power of the corporation. Only if the dissolution is initiated by the board of directors may it be approved by a simple majority of the corporation’s outstanding shares. Delaware law allows a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a supermajority voting requirement in connection with dissolutions initiated by the board. Under the BVI Business Companies Act and our memorandum and articles of association, we may appoint a voluntary liquidator by a resolution of the shareholders or by resolution of directors.

Variationof rights of shares

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may vary the rights of a class of shares with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of such class, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under our memorandum and articles of association, if at any time our shares are divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class may only be varied, whether or not our company is in liquidation, with the consent in writing of or by a resolution passed at a meeting by the holders of not less than 50 percent of the issued shares in that class.

Amendmentof governing documents

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation’s governing documents may be amended with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. As permitted by British Virgin Islands law, our memorandum and articles of association may be amended by a resolution of shareholders and, subject to certain exceptions, by a resolution of directors. Any amendment is effective from the date it is registered at the Registry of Corporate Affairs in the British Virgin Islands.

Note 1– BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Organizationand description of business


Nami Holding (Cayman) Co., Ltd. (“Nami Cayman”) is a limited company established under the laws of the Cayman Islands on April 29, 2019 by Nami Holding (BVI) Co., Ltd. (“Nami BVI”). Nami BVI was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on April 9, 2019 by the controlling shareholder of Nami Shanghai, Jinbao Li. On May 02, 2019, the Company set up a wholly owned subsidiary, Nami Holding (Hong Kong) Co., Limited (“Nami HK”) in Hong Kong.  On August 23, 2019, Nami HK set up a wholly owned subsidiary, Shanghai Naqing Enterprise Management Co., Ltd. (“Naqing”) in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

Nami Shanghai Financial Consulting Co., Ltd (“Nami Shanghai”) was incorporated on June 04, 2015 in the PRC. Since November 25, 2019, Nami Shanghai was owned by the Controlling shareholder, Jinbao Lin, and another foreign shareholder, Mr. Xin Liu, by holding shares of 85% and 15%, respectively. Nami Shanghai is the main operating entity that provides intermediary matching services between financial products providers and qualified investors of various financial products offered by underwriters, financial institutions or underlying financial product providers in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

As described below, Nami Cayman, through a series of transactions which have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control (the “Reorganization”), became the ultimate parent entity of its subsidiaries and its variable interest entity (“VIE”), Nami Shanghai. Accordingly, the Company consolidates its wholly owned subsidiaries and Nami Shanghai’s operations, assets, and liabilities. Nami Cayman, its subsidiaries and VIE are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”.


Reorganization

The following transactions were undertaken to reorganize the legal structure of the Company.

Effective on April 29, 2020, shareholders of Nami Shanghai and Naqing entered into a series of contractual agreements (“VIE Agreements” which are described below). As a result, Naqing has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of Nami Shanghai, and accordingly, the Company consolidates Nami Shanghai as its VIE.

Since the Company and its subsidiaries and VIE are effectively controlled by the same group of shareholders before and after the Reorganization, they are considered under common control. The consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries and VIE have been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the aforementioned transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and VIE are as follows:

Date of incorporation Place of incorporation Percentage of ownership Principal activities
Wholly owned subsidiaries
Nami<br> Holding (Hong Kong) Co., Limited (“Nami HK”) May<br> 02, 2019 Hong<br> Kong 100% Investment<br> holding

TheVIE arrangements with Nami Shanghai

Foreign ownership of internet-based businesses, including distribution of online information is subject to restrictions under current PRC laws and regulations. The Company is a Cayman Islands Company and Naqing (its PRC subsidiary) are considered foreign invested enterprises. To comply with these regulations, the Company conducts its operating activities in the PRC through its VIE, Nami Shanghai.

Naqing has entered into the following contractual arrangements with the shareholders of Nami Shanghai, that enable the Company to (1) have power to direct the activities that most significantly affects the economic performance of Nami Shanghai and (2) receive the economic benefits of Nami Shanghai. The Company is fully and exclusively responsible for the management of Nami Shanghai, assumes all of its risk of losses and has the exclusive right to exercise all voting rights of Nami Shanghai’s shareholders. Therefore, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 810 “Consolidation”, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of Nami Shanghai and has consolidated its assets, liabilities, results of operations, and cash flows in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Managementand Consulting Service Agreement

Under the Consulting Services Agreement dated April 29, 2020, Naqing has the exclusive right to provide management and consulting and other services to Nami Shanghai for a consulting service fee and agrees to authorize Nami Shanghai to use the technologies and related intellectual property rights held by Naqing. Nami Shanghai agrees to pay Naqing or its designated agent for its management and consulting services in an amount equivalent to all Nami Shanghai’s net profits after tax. The agreement shall be effective as of the date of the agreement and shall remain effective until the date when Naqing terminates such agreement or Nami Shanghai ceases to exist.

EquityInterest Pledge Agreements

Pursuant to the Equity Interest Pledge Agreements, each Shareholder of Nami Shanghai agreed to pledge their equity interest in Nami Shanghai to Naqing to secure the performance of the Nami Shanghai’s obligations under the Trades, Technologies & Management and Consulting Service Agreements and any such agreements to be entered into in the future. Shareholders of VIEs agreed not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of or otherwise create any encumbrance on their equity interests in VIEs without the prior written consent of Naqing. The Pledges became effective on such date when the pledge of the Equity Interest contemplated herein were registered with relevant administration for industry and commerce (the “AIC”) and remain effective until all contract obligations have been fully performed and all secured indebtedness has been fully paid.

VotingRights Proxy Agreement.

Under the Voting Rights Proxy Agreement, each shareholder of Nami Shanghai irrevocably authorizes Naqing to exercise rights and powers as shareholders of Nami Shanghai, including but not limited to, convening and attending shareholders’ meetings, voting on all matters of Nami Shanghai requiring shareholder approval and appointing directors and senior management members. The Voting Rights Proxy Agreements will remain in force unless otherwise terminated in writing by Naqing or with the written consent of all parties.

ExclusiveCall Option Agreement.

Under the Exclusive Call Option Agreement, Nami Shanghai and its shareholders have irrevocably granted Naqing an exclusive option to purchase, or authorize their designated persons to purchase all or part of each shareholder’s equity interests. The purchase price shall be equal to the minimum price required by the relevant PRC laws. Without prior written consent of Naqing, Nami Shanghai shall not among other things, amend its articles of association, sell or otherwise dispose of its assets or beneficial interests, enter into transactions which may adversely affect its assets, liabilities, business operations, equity interests and other legal interests, or merge with any other entities or make any investments, or distribute dividends. Naqing has right to transfer the rights and obligations pursuant to the Exclusive Call Option Agreement to any third party, which does not require any prior consent of Nami Shanghai and its shareholders. The Exclusive Call Option Agreement will remain effective until Naqing terminates this agreement with 30 days advance notice.

The Company’s ability to conduct its financial services business may be negatively affected if the PRC government were to carry out of any of the aforementioned actions. As a result, the Company may not be able to consolidate Nami Shanghai in its consolidated financial statements as it may lose the ability to exert effective control over Nami Shanghai and its respective shareholders and it may lose the ability to receive its economic benefits. The Company, however, does not believe such actions would result in the liquidation or dissolution of Nami Cayman, its subsidiaries and VIE.

The interests of the shareholders of the VIE may diverge from that of the Company and that may potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the contractual terms, for example by influencing Nami Shanghai not to pay the service fees when required to do so. The Company cannot assure that when conflicts of interest arise, shareholders of Nami Shanghai will act in the best interests of the Company or that conflicts of interests will be resolved in the Company’s favor. Currently, the Company does not have existing arrangements to address potential conflicts of interest the shareholders of Nami Shanghai may encounter in their capacity as beneficial owners and directors of the VIE, on the one hand, and as beneficial owners and directors of the Company, on the other hand. The Company believes the shareholders of Nami Shanghai will not act contrary to any of the contractual arrangements and the exclusive option agreements provided the Company with a mechanism to remove the current shareholders of Nami Shanghai should they act to the detriment of the Company. The Company relies on certain current shareholders of Nami Shanghai to fulfill their fiduciary duties and abide by laws of the PRC and act in the best interest of the Company. If the Company cannot resolve any conflicts of interest or disputes between the Company and the shareholders of Nami Shanghai, the Company would have to rely on legal proceedings, which could result in disruption of its business and significant legal costs. There are also substantial uncertainties as to the PRC legal system and the outcome of any such legal proceedings.

Note 2– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Usesof estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements include but are not limited to estimates and judgments applied in the assessment of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, useful lives of property and equipment, impairment of short-term investments and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ****

The Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Revenues for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 were presented under ASC 606. There was no adjustment to the opening balance of the deficit at January 1, 2018 since there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition upon adoption of ASC 606. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

Under the guidance of ASC 606, the Company is required to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, the Company has included variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur. Revenues are recorded, net of sales related taxes and surcharges.

The Company earns commissions from its services provided to small and medium size enterprises, underwriters, financial institutions or underlying financial product providers. The Company enters into commission agreements with underwriters, financial institutions and financial product providers which specifies the key terms and conditions of the arrangement. Such agreements are separately negotiated for each transaction and generally do not include rights of return, credits or discounts, rebates, price protection or other similar privileges and are typically paid on or shortly after the transaction is completed. The Company earns service fees from its clients when the investor referred by the Company has entered a purchase or subscription contract with the relevant product provider and fund transfer is completed from investor to provider. Revenue is calculated as a fixed charge rate based on different maturities of the products in addition to the amount of the financial products purchased by the investor. The Company believes such arrangement represents a performance obligation that is satisfied at a point of time, therefore, the intermediary matching service fee is recognized as revenue upon the purchase of the financial products.

Cashand cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, money market fund investments, time deposits, as well as highly liquid investments, which have original maturities of three months or less.

Short-termInvestments

The Company’s short-term investments include wealth management products that have a stated maturity and normally pay a prospective fixed rate of return, the underlying assets of which are loans receivable or finance lease receivables. Short-term investments are the wealth management products with a remaining contractual maturity date that is usually less than one year but more than three months.

Fairvalue of financial instruments

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 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.

There were no transfers between level 1, level 2 or level 3 measurements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, prepayment and other assets, accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

There were no assets or liabilities subject to fair value measurement at December 31, 2019 and the financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements at December 31, 2018 were as follows:

December<br> 31, 2018 Level<br> 1 Level<br> 2 Level<br> 3 Total
Wealth<br> management products $ - $ 191,404 $ - $ 191,404
Total<br> short-term investments $ - $ 191,404 $ - $ 191,404

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, prepayment and other assets, loans to third parties, accounts payable, advances from customers, tax payable, due to related parties and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company believes that the carrying amount of the wealth management products approximates their fair value based on the terms of the underlying investments which are reflective of current market rates.

Accountsreceivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

Accounts receivable represents the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for intermediary matching services that the Company has provided to the customer before payment is due.

Accounts receivable are stated at the historical carrying amount net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts The Company has not experienced any significant historical uncollectable accounts, and as a policy, the Company establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts based on estimates, historical experience and other factors surrounding the credit risk of customers. For individual customers where there is an observable indicator of impairment, a specific allowance is provided. The Company evaluates and adjusts its allowance for uncollectable accounts receivable and contract assets on a quarterly basis or more often as necessary. Uncollectible accounts are written off when a settlement is reached for an amount that is less than the outstanding historical balance or when the Company has determined the balance will not be collected. The Company believes that all accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 are collectable and has not provided an allowance for uncollectable accounts.


Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard on leases, ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", which requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities arising from operating leases. A lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the Lease Liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In July 2018, the FASB issued an amendment, ASU 2018-11, which provides another transition method in addition to the existing transition methods by allowing entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the effective date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption and to not retrospectively adjust prior periods financial statements.

The Company has adopted the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 and elected to apply practical expedients permitted under the transition method that allow the Company to use the beginning of the period of adoption as the date of initial application, to not recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less, to not separate non-lease components from lease components, and to not reassess lease classification, treatment of initial direct costs, or whether an existing or expired contract contains a lease. The Company did not retrospectively adjust the prior comparative period. Under the new lease standard, the Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term. The Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of lease commencement. The adoption of the new leasing guidance resulted in recognition of $607,713 of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability as of January 1, 2019.


Propertyand equipment, net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of the related assets over their useful lives using the straight-line method, as follows:

Incometaxes

The Company, its subsidiaries and VIE are subject to the income tax laws of the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong and the PRC. No taxable income was generated outside the PRC for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740 which uses the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for differences between assets and liabilities for financial statement and tax purposes. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences for these differences. Deferred tax assets are also provided for carryforward losses which can be used to offset future taxable income. A valuation allowance is established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company considers that no valuation allowance is necessary as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

An uncertain tax position is recognized if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. The Company evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measure the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions. The Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s PRC tax returns filed for the tax years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2019 remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities. Nami Cayman was incorporated in the Cayman Islands and is not subject to income taxes under the current laws of the Cayman Islands. Nami HK is subject to corporate income taxes at 16.5% for revenue generated in Hong Kong. No revenue was generated in Hong Kong for the years ended December 31, 2019.

Valueadded tax (“VAT”)


Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods and services, net of VAT. VAT is based on the gross sales price and ranges from 6% to 13%, depending on the type of goods or services provided. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. The net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in taxes payable. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in China, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.

Foreigncurrency translation

Since the Company operates primarily in the PRC, the Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The Company’s financial statements have been translated into the reporting currency, the United States Dollar (“USD”). The Company did not have any operation in Hong Kong. Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated at the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Equity is translated at historical rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate during the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB and HKD amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USD at the rates used in translation.

Comprehensiveincome (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of shareholders’ equity but are excluded from net income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensiveincome (loss) (continued)

solely consists of foreign currency translation adjustments resulting from the Company not using the U.S. dollar as its functional currency.

Certainrisks and concentrations

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2019, and 2018, $2,114,418 and $415,486 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents was on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC, which the management believes are of high credit quality. On May 1, 2015, China’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions, such as commercial banks, established in China are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits of up to RMB 500,000 (USD $72,000). and for foreign currency placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Company’s accounts, as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit. However, the Company believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in China and the Company believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments are financially sound based on public available information. The amount in excess of insured limits at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $,1,968,000 and $330,000, respectively.

Substantially all the Company’s revenue is derived from customers that are located primarily in China. The Company has a concentration of its revenues with specific customers. For the year ended December 31, 2019, three customers accounting for 41.7%, 25.3% and 12.4% of the Company’s total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2018, two customers accounting for 77.2% and 20.9% of the Company’s total revenue.

Earnings(loss) per share


The Company follows FASB ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share” (“EPS”) and presents basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no dilutive shares.

Statementsof cash flows


In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, cash flows from the Company are calculated based upon the local currencies and translated at the average exchange rates during the reporting period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the Company’s statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.


RecentAccounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all new accounting standards and updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

In June 2016, the FASB amended guidance related to the impairment of financial instruments as part of ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which will be effective January 1, 2020. The guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with an expected credit loss model for which a company recognizes an allowance based on the estimate of expected credit loss. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which clarified that receivables from operating leases are not within the scope of Topic 326 and instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842. The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any removed or modified disclosures. The removed and modified disclosures will be adopted on a retrospective basis and the new disclosures will be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17 (“ASU 2018-17”), “Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities.” The updated guidance requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The amendments in this update are effective for entities other than private companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years. These amendments should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company does not expect this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recently issued accounting standards that the Company believes will have material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The total amount of unpaid tax liabilities was accrued based on the calculation using the current prevailing tax rates without including potential interest and penalties because management cannot be certain as to how much interest and penalties would be assessed, if any. Due to uncertainties associated with the status of examinations, including the protocols of finalizing audits by the relevant tax authorities, there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding the future cash outflows associated with the interest and penalties on these unpaid tax balances. The final outcome of this tax uncertainty is dependent upon various matters including tax examinations, interpretation of tax laws or expiration of the statute of limitations.

There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the PRC and international economies and, as such, the Company is unable to determine if it will have a material impact to its operations. The Company expects to generate approximately $38.2 million (RMB 263.5 million) revenue from its intermediary matching services in 2020.
