HITEK GLOBAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes

to UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED Financial Statements

June 30, 2023 and 2022

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

HiTek Global Inc. ( “HiTek Global”) was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on November 3, 2017 in anticipation of an initial public offering. HiTek Global, through its variable interest entity (“VIE”) and VIE’s subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) provides hardware sales, software sales, information technology (“IT”) maintenance services and tax devices and services in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

On November 20, 2017, HiTek Global formed its wholly-owned subsidiary, HiTek Hong Kong Limited (“HiTek HK”) in Hong Kong. On March 15, 2018, HiTek HK formed its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tian Dahai (Xiamen) Information Technology Co. Ltd. (“WFOE”) in PRC.

Xiamen Hengda HiTek Computer Network Co., Ltd. (“HiTek”), was established in January 1996 by Shenping Yin, Xiaoyang Huang (the spouse of Shenping Yin) and nine other shareholders, who held 29.83%, 44.74% and 25.43% of its equity interests, respectively, in Xiamen, Fujian Province, PRC pursuant to PRC laws. HiTek Global entered into a series of contractual arrangements with HiTek which were effective in March 2018, and its equity holders through WFOE to obtain control and became the primary beneficiary of HiTek for accounting purposes.

In September 1999, Xiamen Huasheng HiTek Computer Network Co., Ltd (“Huasheng”), a wholly owned subsidiary of HiTek was incorporated under the laws of the PRC.

In September 2017, Huoerguosi Hengda Information Technology Co., Ltd (“Huoerguosi”), a wholly owned subsidiary of HiTek was established in XinJiang Province, PRC.

In April 2021, Xiamen Haitian Weilai Technology Co., Ltd. (“Haitian Weilai”), a wholly owned subsidiary of WFOE was incorporated under the laws of the PRC.

F-6

The Company’s current corporate structure is as follows:

As all the above mentioned companies presented were under common control, the series of contractual arrangements between HiTek Global and HiTek in March 2018 constituted a reorganization under common control and was retrospectively applied to the consolidated financial statements (“CFS”) at their historical amounts. The CFS are prepared as if the existing corporate structure had been in existence throughout all periods. This includes a retrospective presentation for all equity related disclosures, including share and per share, which have been revised to reflect the effects of the reorganization.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANTACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Financial Information

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and for the six months periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. The accompanying unaudited condensed CFS have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. Operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying unaudited condensed CFS include financial information related to the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and those variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where the Company is the primary beneficiary.


In preparing the unaudited condensed CFS, all significant inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated.


VIE Agreements with HiTek


During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no transactions in HiTek Global Inc. and HiTek HK besides minimal capital transactions, professional fee payments and interest income. As of June 30, 2023, the VIEs accounted for 54% and 99% of the Company’s total assets and total liabilities, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the VIEs accounted for 96% and 98% of the Company’s total assets and total liabilities, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $1,088,701 and $955,941 of cash was denominated in RMB, respectively. For more information regarding the VIE agreements with Hitek, refer to the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 22, 2023.


F-7


Use of Estimates and Assumptions


The preparation of the unaudited condensed CFS 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 unaudited condensed CFS and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.


Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed CFS include allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, deferred taxes, and the useful lives of property and equipment. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The U.S. GAAP regarding fair value (“FV”) of financial instruments and related FV measurements define FV, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring FV.

The three levels of inputs are defined as follows:

Level<br> 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets<br> or liabilities in active markets.
Level<br> 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities<br> in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly<br> or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
--- ---
Level<br> 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.
--- ---

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at FV (FV option). The FV option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the FV option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the FV option to any outstanding instruments.

The carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts receivable – related party, advances to suppliers, deferred offering costs, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income taxes payable, VAT and other taxes payable, and due to related parties approximate their FV based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company’s investments measured at FV on a recurring basis consist of trading securities and held-to-maturity debt securities. The valuation for the Level 1 position is based on quoted prices in active markets. Detailed information is in “NOTE 3-INVESTMENTS” in this report.

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no other contracts to issue options, warrants or conversion rights, which would have a dilutive effect on EPS.

F-8

Cash

Cash consists of cash on hand and in banks. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash with various financial institutions in the PRC. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (audited), cash balances held in PRC banks are uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in bank accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Currently, all of the Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, short-term investments, trade accounts receivable, and accounts receivable from related parties and advances to suppliers. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales which are to the customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.

Investments

Short-term investments consist of trading stock and debt securities, which include mutual funds and wealth management products issued by commercial banks with maturity within one year. Considering the Company’s short-term investments are highly liquid in nature, changes in the FV and related transactions of short-term investments are presented as operating activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. Long-term investments include mutual funds and wealth management products with maturity over one year. The Company accounts for investment in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Dividend and interest income, including amortization of the premium and discount arising at acquisition, for all categories of investments in securities is included in unaudited condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Net realized and unrealized holding gains and losses for investments are included in unaudited condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

If a security is acquired with the intent of selling it within hours or days, the security is classified as a trading security. The Company classifies investments in trading stock and mutual funds as trading securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities are included in earnings.

If the Company has positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, the security is classified as a held-to-maturity security. The Company classifies investments in wealth management products as held-to-maturity securities as the Company intends to hold these investments until maturity. The investments in wealth management products are valued at carrying value, which approximates the amortized cost. For individual securities classified as held-to-maturity securities, the Company evaluates whether a decline in FV below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary, in accordance with ASC 320. Other-than-temporary impairment loss is recognized in earnings equal to the entire excess of the debt security’s amortized cost basis over its FV at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for which the assessment is made.


F-9


Expected Credit Losses


On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), which replaced previously issued guidance regarding the impairment of financial instruments with an expected loss methodology that will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The Company used a modified retrospective approach and did not restate the comparable prior periods, which resulted in recording the related financial impact in retained earnings in 2023.

Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Company maintains an allowance for credit losses in accordance with ASC 326 and records the allowance for credit losses as an offset to assets such as accounts receivable, etc., and the estimated credit losses charged to the allowance are classified as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company assesses collectability by reviewing receivables on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist, primarily based on the size and nature of specific customers’ receivables. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the receivable balances, credit quality of the Company’s customers based on ongoing credit evaluations, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Bad debts are written off as incurred.

Advances to Suppliers

Advances to suppliers are amounts prepaid to suppliers for purchases of inventories and outsourced software services. In evaluating the recoverability of such advances, the Company mainly considers the age of the balance and the ability of the suppliers to perform the related obligations.

Deferred Offering Cost

The Company complies with ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering cost consists of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Proposed Public Offering. Deferred offering cost is charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Proposed Public Offering. Should the Proposed Public Offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred cost, as well as additional expenses to be incurred, will be charged to operations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (weighted average basis) or net realizable value. The methods of determining inventory costs are used consistently from year to year. Allowance for inventory obsolescence is provided when the market value of certain inventory items is lower than the cost.

Property, Equipment and Software

Property, equipment and software are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the statement of operations in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of property, equipment and software, when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Estimated useful lives are as follows, taking into account the assets’ estimated residual value:

Classification Estimated<br> useful life
Furniture and office equipment 2-3 years
Computer equipment 2-3 years
Transportation equipment 5 years
Buildings and improvements 20 years
Software 3 years

F-10

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated FV and its book value.  The Company did not record any impairment charge during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Revenue Recognition

The Company follows ASU 2014-09, Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and its related amendments (collectively referred to as “ASC 606”) for its revenue recognition accounting policy that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when all of the following five steps are met: (i) identify the contract(s) with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; (v) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company generates its revenues primarily from three sources: (1) hardware sales, (2) software sales, and (3) tax devices and services. The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with its customers are satisfied. This occurs when the control of the goods and services have been transferred to the customer.

Hardwaresales

Hardware revenues are generated primarily from the sale of computer and network hardware to end users. The products include computers, printers, internet cables, certain internet servers, cameras and monitors. Sales of hardware have a single performance obligation. The Company usually recognizes the revenue when ownership is transferred to end customers. The Company’s revenue from sales of hardware is reported on a gross basis since the Company is primarily obligated in the transaction, bears inventory and credit risk and has discretion to establish the prices. Hardware sales are classified as “Revenue” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Softwaresales

HiTek also does business in software sales and focuses on the perpetual licenses sales for one of the self-developed software Communication Interface System (“CIS”). CIS is based on LINUX, which is a general embedded interface system used in petrochemical and coal enterprises. The system is used to communicate the RCTX-X module, collect the work diagram, the electricity diagram, the pressure temperature and other measures, and can extract the data and import it to the software of the windows platform to display analysis.

Performance Obligations - Software contracts with customers include multiple performance obligations such as sale of software license, installation of software, operation training service and warranty. The installation and operation training are essential to the functionality of the software which are provided to the clients prior to the acceptance of the software. The Company provides one-year warranty which mainly telephone supports. The Company estimates that costs associated with warranty are de minimis to the overall contract. Therefore, the Company does not further allocate transaction price.

The Company recognizes revenue when the software is accepted by the customer. Revenues from software sales contracts are classified as “Revenue” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

TaxDevices and Services

Before January 21, 2021, all VAT general taxpayer businesses in China are required to purchase the Anti-Counterfeiting Tax Control System (“ACTCS” or Golden Tax Disk or GTD) tax devices to issue the VAT Invoice and for quarterly VAT filing. HiTek is authorized to carry out the implementation of ACTCS specialty hardware retailing. The price of GTD and related supporting services are determined by the National Development and Reform Commission. From January 21, 2021, new taxpayers can receive electronic tax control ukey for free from the Tax authority. HiTek could provide supporting services to the new taxpayers.

F-11

Performance Obligations - Tax devices and services contracts with customers include multiple performance obligations such as delivery of products, installation and after-sales supporting services, tax control system risk investigation service, and tax invoicing management service, such as training service on issuing electronic invoice, complete tax declaration automatically and back up data online.

Revenue from the sales of GTD devices is recognized when ownership is transferred to end customers. The Company provides the tax device after-sales supporting services and tax invoicing management service, charging the service fee on an annual basis because the service period is usually one year. Revenue from its service is recognized as the services are performed and amounts are earned, using the straight-line method over the term of the related services agreement. The Company also charges a one-time service charge for each investigation request. Revenue from tax control system risk investigation service is recognized when the services are performed. Revenue is recognized based on each performance obligation’s standalone selling price that is sold separately and charged to customers at contract inception.

The Company’s revenue from its gross billings is reported on a gross basis since the Company is primarily obligated in the transaction, is subject to inventory and credit risk and has several but not all of the indications that revenue should be recorded on the gross basis.

Revenue was comprised of the following.

Six Months Ended June 30,
2023 2022
(Unaudited) (Unaudited)

Total revenues $ 2,948,115 $ 2,859,150
Contractbalances
--- ---

Prepayments received from customers prior to the services being performed are recorded as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue consists of the annual service fees for GTD and tax invoicing management service received from customers while the services have not yet been performed. The Company recognizes the service fees as revenue on a straight-line basis in accordance with the service periods.

Practicalexpedients and exemptions

The Company generally expenses sales commissions as incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue consists of the annual service fees for GTD received from customers but the services have not yet been performed. The Company recognizes the service amount as revenue on a straight-line basis in accordance with the service periods. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $649,333 and $136,657 respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period.


Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue is comprised of (i) the direct cost of our hardware products purchased from third parties; (ii) logistics-related costs, which primarily include product packaging and freight-in charges; (iii) third-party royalties paid for the GTD; and (iv) compensation for the employees who handle the products and other costs that are necessary for us to provide the services to our customers.

F-12

Selling Expenses


Selling expenses consists of primarily shipping and handling costs for products sold and advertising and marketing expenses for promotion of our products.

General and Administrative Expenses


General and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs of salary and welfare for our general administrative and management staff, facilities costs, depreciation and amortization expenses, professional fees, accounting fees, meals and entertainment, utilities, additional expenses for public offering, and other miscellaneous expenses incurred in connection with general operations. All depreciation and amortization was recorded in general and administrative expenses because fixed assets are mainly for sales and administrative purposes.

Government Subsidies

Grants are given by the government to mainly support the Company for the increase in production and social insurance compensation for rural laborers. Grants are recognized as government subsidies income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations when received.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company follows FASB ASC 985-20, Cost of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Marketed, regarding software development costs to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed. FASB ASC 985-20-25 requires research and development (“R&D”) costs for software development to be expensed as incurred until the software model is technologically feasible. Technological feasibility is established when the enterprise has completed all planning, designing, coding, testing, and identification of risks activities necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications, features, functions, technical performance requirements. Some judgment and estimation is required to assess when technological feasibility Is established, as well as the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of capitalized costs. The Company’s products reach technological feasibility shortly before the products are released and sold to the public. Therefore, R&D costs are generally expensed as incurred.

The Company expenses R&D expenses as incurred and they are included as part of general and administrative expenses. R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $19,597 and $25,035, respectively.

The Company defers certain costs for the software development activities associated with certain software, which the Company determined has future economic benefit. Management periodically reviews and revises, when necessary, its estimate of the future benefit of these costs and expenses if it deems there no longer is a future benefit. The Company has two software (for internal use) (Finance and Taxation Service Platform Mobile Application and Corporate Full-Service Platform Mobile Application) and they were fully amortized as of December 31, 2022.

Income Taxes

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset/liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in the Company’s CFS. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period.

F-13

Value Added Taxes (“VAT”)

VAT is reported as a deduction of revenue when incurred. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in taxes payable.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company’s operations in the PRC is the Chinese Yuan or Renminbi (“RMB”). The unaudited condensed CFS are translated to U.S. dollars using the period end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, equity is translated at historical exchange rates, and average rates of exchange (for the period) are used for revenues and expenses and cash flows. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income / loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

All of the Company’s revenue transactions are transacted in its functional currency. The Company does not enter into any material transaction in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.

The exchange rates as of June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and December 31, 2022 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (unaudited) are as follows:

December 31, Six Months Ended June 30,
2022 2023 2022
Foreign currency Balance Sheet Profits/Loss Profits/Loss
RMB:1 7.2537 6.9091 6.9237 6.4758

All values are in US Dollars.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of shareholders’ equity, except those due to investments by shareholders and changes in paid-in capital. For the Company, comprehensive income(loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted of net income and unrealized (loss from foreign currency translation adjustment.

Related Parties

A party is considered related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

Leases


On December 31, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (as amended by ASU 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, and 2019-01, collectively “ASC 842”), using the modified retrospective method. The Company elected the transition method which allows entities to initially apply the requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. As a result of electing this transition method, previously reported financial information has not been restated to reflect the application of the new standard to the comparative periods presented. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within ASC 842, which among other things, allows the Company to carry forward certain historical conclusions reached under ASC Topic 840 regarding lease identification, classification, and the accounting treatment of initial direct costs. The Company elected not to record assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet for new or existing lease arrangements with terms of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes lease expenses for such lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The most significant impact upon adoption is for the recognition of Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for office and warehouse space leases. At the commencement date of a lease, the Company recognizes a lease liability for future fixed lease payments and a ROU asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured as the present value of the future fixed lease payments that will be made over the lease term. The lease term includes periods for which it’s reasonably certain that the renewal options will be exercised and periods for which it’s reasonably certain the termination options will not be exercised. The future fixed lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease, if available, or the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). The Company will evaluate the carrying value of ROU assets if there are indicators of impairment and review the recoverability of the related asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group is determined to not be recoverable and is in excess of the estimated fair value, the Company will record an impairment loss in other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. The standard will replace the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on its CFS.

The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on its unaudited condensed CFS.

PRC

The Company’s PRC operating subsidiary and VIEs, being incorporated in the PRC, are governed by the income tax law of the PRC and is subject to PRC enterprise income tax (“EIT”). The EIT rate of PRC is 25%, which applies to both domestic and foreign invested enterprises. One of the Company’s subsidiaries located in the Xinjiang Huoerguosi special development zones, Huoerguosi, is currently exempt from corporate income tax in China from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021. Since the beginning of 2022, Huoerguosi did not enjoy the above preferential tax policy. State Administration of Taxation and Ministry of Finance issued a notice related to the tax relief policy of the small- scale enterprises in January 2019. According to the notice, from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021, if a small profit-making enterprise has annual taxable income less than or equal to RMB 1 million, only 25% of its annual taxable income will be subject to income tax at a reduced rate of 20%; for those with annual taxable income more than RMB 1 million but less than RMB 3 million, 50% of their annual taxable income will be subject to income tax at the reduced rate of 20%. In April 2021, on the basis of the previous preferential policy, State Administration of Taxation and Ministry of Finance issued a notice stating that, from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022, for those with annual taxable income less than or equal to RMB 1 million, only 12.5% of its annual taxable income will be subject to income tax at a reduced rate of 20%. In March 2022, on the basis of the previous preferential policy, State Administration of Taxation and Ministry of Finance further issued a notice stating that, from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024, for those with annual taxable income more than RMB 1 million but did not exceed RMB 3 million, 25% of their annual taxable income will be subject to income tax at the same reduced rate of 20%. In March 2023, on the basis of the previous preferential policy, State Administration of Taxation and Ministry of Finance issued a notice stating that, from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2024, for those with annual taxable income less than or equal to RMB 1 million, 25% of their annual taxable income will be subject to income tax at the same reduced rate of 20%.

NOTE 19 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCY

Contingencies

The Company may be involved in various legal proceedings, claims and other disputes arising from the commercial operations, projects, employees and other matters which, in general, are subject to uncertainties and in which the outcomes are not predictable. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was not aware of any litigation or proceedings against it.

Risks in relation to the VIE structure

It is possible the Company’s operations and businesses through its VIE could be found by PRC authorities to violate PRC law and regulations prohibiting or restricting foreign ownership of companies that engage in such operations and businesses. While the Company’s management considers the possibility of such a finding by PRC regulatory authorities under current law and regulations to be remote, on January 19, 2015, the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC, or (the “MOFCOM”) released on its Website for public comment a proposed PRC law (the “Draft FIE Law”) that appears to include VIEs within the scope of entities that could be considered foreign invested enterprises (or “FIEs”) that would be subject to restrictions under existing PRC law on foreign investment in certain categories of industry. Specifically, the Draft FIE Law introduces the concept of “actual control” for determining whether an entity is considered to be an FIE. In addition to control through direct or indirect ownership or equity, the Draft FIE Law includes control through contractual arrangements within the definition of “actual control.” If the Draft FIE Law is passed by the People’s Congress of the PRC and goes into effect in its current form, these provisions regarding control through contractual arrangements could be construed to reach the Company’s VIE arrangements, and as a result the Company’s VIE could become subject to the current restrictions on foreign investment in certain categories of industry. If a finding were made by PRC authorities, under existing law and regulations or under the Draft FIE Law if it becomes effective, about the Company’s operation of certain of its operations and businesses through its VIEs, regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the licensing and operation of such operations and businesses would have broad discretion in dealing with such a violation, including levying fines, confiscating the Company’s income, revoking the business or operating licenses of the affected businesses, requiring the Company to restructure its ownership structure or operations, or requiring the Company to discontinue all or any portion of its operations. Any of these actions could cause significant disruption to the Company’s business operations, and have a severe adverse impact on the Company’s cash flows, financial position and operating performance.

F-24

In addition, it is possible the contracts among WFOE, HiTek and HiTek’s shareholders would not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts found that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. If the Company was unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, the Company would not be able to exert effective control over the VIEs. Consequently, the VIEs’ results of operations, assets and liabilities would not be included in the Company’s CFS. If such were the case, the Company’s cash flows, financial position, and operating performance would be materially adversely affected. The Company’s contractual arrangements WFOE, HiTek and HiTek’s shareholders are approved and in place. Management believes such contracts are enforceable, and considers the possibility remote that PRC regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the Company’s operations and contractual relationships would find the contracts to be unenforceable.

The Company’s operations and businesses rely on the operations and businesses of its VIEs, which hold certain recognized revenue-producing assets. The VIEs also have an assembled workforce, focused primarily on R&D, whose costs are expensed as incurred. The Company’s operations and businesses may be adversely impacted if the Company loses the ability to use and enjoy assets held by its VIE.

VIEs are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision-making ability. All VIEs and their subsidiaries of the Company must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.

Summary information regarding consolidated VIEs and their subsidiaries is as follows.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSISOFFINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKINGSTATEMENTS

This report contains certain statements thatmay be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of United States of America securities laws.  Allstatements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that we intend, expect, project,believe or anticipate and similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as will, should, would, could or may occur in the futureare forward-looking statements.

These statements include, without limitation,statements about our anticipated expenditures, including those related to general and administrative expenses; the potential sizeof the market for our services, future development and/or expansion of our services in our markets, our ability to generate revenues,our ability to obtain regulatory clearance and expectations as to our future financial performance. Our actual results will likely differ,perhaps materially, from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including: our need andability to raise additional cash. The forward-looking statements included in this report are subject to a number of additional materialrisks and uncertainties.

The following discussion and analysis of ourfinancial condition and results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and the related notes to those statementsincluded in this report. In addition to historical financial information, this discussion may contain forward-looking statements reflectingour current plans, estimates, beliefs and expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many important factors, ouractual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

The following consolidated results of operations include the results of operations of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary and consolidated VIEs.

Our historical reporting results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Comparedto Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

Revenue

Increase / Percentage
2023 2022 (Decrease) Change
Hardware $ 1,313,059 $ 799,247 $ 513,812 64.3 %
CIS software 775,201 1,098,849 (323,648 ) (29.5 )%
Tax devices and service 859,855 961,054 (101,199 ) (10.5 )%
Total revenues $ 2,948,115 $ 2,859,150 $ 88,965 3.1 %

We have the following three revenue streams – hardware sales, CIS software sales, and tax devices and services sales. The hardware sales increase was mainly due to the increase in sales to large customers. CIS software sales consist of software sales and services. CIS software sales decreased mainly due to the decrease of software sales to large customers, for these large customers reduced their procurement. Tax devices and service sales decreased due to new policies from January 2021 that new taxpayers in Xiamen could get free tax Ukeys from the Tax authorization. We expect the tax devices and service sales will be affected in the future. Our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2,948,115, an increase of $88,965 or 3.1% from $2,859,150 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in hardware sales was partially offset by the decline in revenues from CIS software and tax devices and service sales.

The Company expects to expand tax control system risk investigation service for SMEs and also increase orders for software and hardware sales from major customers in the second half of 2023.

Cost and Margin

Increase / Percentage
2023 2022 (Decrease) Change
Total revenues $ 2,948,115 $ 2,859,150 $ 88,965 3.1 %
Cost of revenues 1,448,835 1,019,028 429,807 42.2 %
Gross profit $ 1,499,280 $ 1,840,122 $ (340,842 ) (18.5 )%
Margin % 50.9 % 64.4 % (13.5 )%

Cost of revenue is comprised of (i) the direct cost of our hardware products purchased from third parties; (ii) logistics-related costs, which primarily include product packaging and freight-in charges; (iii) third-party royalties paid related to the Golden Tax Disk (“GTD”), an Anti-Counterfeiting Tax Control System (“ACTCS”) tax device; (iv) compensation for the employees who handle the products and perform Tax invoicing management services and other costs that are necessary for us to provide the services to our customers; and (v) outsourcing costs, which primarily include software outsourcing service cost to the third parties.

Cost of revenues increased to $1,448,835 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $1,019,028 for 2022. An increase of $429,807 or 42.2%. This increase was mainly due to the change in revenue mix, with more revenues generated in 2023 from hardware sales that have a lower gross profit, which resulted in the increase of cost of sales as a percentage of sales in 2023 compared to 2022.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit decreased to $1,499,280 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $1,840,122 for 2022. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 50.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from 64.4% for 2022. This was mainly due to the change in revenue mix, with more revenues generated in 2023 from hardware sales that have a lower profit margin and fewer revenues being generated in 2023 from CIS software sales that have a higher profit margin. The Company expects to continue to focus on projects with high gross profit, such as services for SMEs, and at the same time, increase the hardware and software sales of large customers.

Operating Expenses

Increase / Percentage
2023 2022 (Decrease) Change
Selling expenses $ 325 $ 291,272 $ (290,947 ) (99.9 )%
% of revenue 0.0 % 10.2 % (10.2 )% -
General and administrative expenses 991,254 787,113 204,141 25.9 %
% of revenue 33.6 % 27.5 % 6.1 % -
Operating expenses $ 991,579 $ 1,078,385 $ (86,806 ) (8.0 )%

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses consist primarily of shipping and handling costs for products sold and advertising and marketing expenses for promotion of our products. Selling expenses decreased by 99.9% or $290,947 to $325 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $291,272 in 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease of the Company’s sales commissions to obtain new orders in 2023. Selling expenses were 0.01% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 10.2% of total revenue in 2022.

2

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary and welfare for our general administrative and management staff, facilities costs, depreciation expenses, professional fees, accounting fees, directors and officers liability insurance, and other miscellaneous expenses incurred in connection with general operations. General and administrative expenses increased by 25.9% or $204,141 to $991,254 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $787,113 in 2022. The increase was mainly due to (1) the increase of professional service fee of $61,315 resulting from financial consulting in 2023, (2) other fees of $99,514 related to completion of the Company’s initial public offering in March, 2023, and (3) impairment losses of $72,472 resulting from adoption of credit losses policy. The increase was offset with decrease of salary expense of $120,536 resulting from the reduction of employees for cost-effectiveness consideration. General and administrative expenses were 33.6% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 27.5% of total revenue in 2022.

Operating income. Operating income was $507,701 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $761,737 for 2022. The decrease in operating income in 2022 was primarily due to the decrease in gross profit.

Other income. Other income includes government subsidy income, net investment income (loss), and interest income and expenses. Other income was $440,214 and $124,040 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the increase in investment income of $94,970 and the increase in government subsidies of $140,314.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $325,941 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $247,350 for 2022. The increase in income tax expense was due primarily to the increase in deferred tax liability resulting from the increased unbilled revenue from large customers.

Effective tax rate. Effective tax rate was 34.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 27.9% for 2022. The increase was due primarily to one PRC subsidiary with preferential tax policy recording a loss in 2023 whereas it recorded a profit in 2022.

Net income. As a result of the factors described above, net income was $621,974 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $16,453 from $638,427 for 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Comparedto Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

Our principal sources of liquidity come from cash generated from operating activities, equity financing and loans. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had cash of $5,495,270 and $1,203,160, respectively.

Working Capital. Working capital as of June 30, 2023 was $16,666,754 compared to $7,898,463 as of December 31, 2022. The increase was mainly due to an increase in current portion of loan receivable of $6,474,009, short-term investments of $2,436,793 and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $507,571, which was offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $2,407,232, deferred offering cost of $917,446 and advance to suppliers of $139,032. Current liabilities were $5,708,023 as of June 30, 2023, compared to $4,203,695 as of December 31, 2022. This increase of liabilities was attributable mainly to an increase in current portion of loan payable of $2,043,845, which was offset by a decrease of deferred revenue of $473,297 and accounts payable of $137,161. In addition, in April 2023, the Company received approximately $15.1 million from the public offering. We believe our current cash and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs, including our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months.

Capital Resources and Capital Needs. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, third-party loans and stock offering. With the uncertainty of the current market, our management believes it is necessary to enhance collection of outstanding accounts receivable and other receivables, and to be cautious on operational decisions and project selection. Our management believes our current operations can satisfy our daily working capital needs. We expect to incur additional capital expenditures for research and development of software, recruiting additional employees, enhancing our information technology system. We intend to fund these planned expenditures with our operating cash flow and our cash balance, as well as net proceeds received from our initial public offering in April 2023.

As of the end of September, the development was finished and accepted by the Company. As of June 30, 2023, the Company paid the software upgrade and development costs of $330,866 and the total contract amount was $661,731.

Such loans will mature within nine months from the date of issue, with loan principal, interest and handling fees to be settled immediately after the maturity date. From April to June, 2023, total loans to such third party were $2,986,321, of which $600,000 of the principal was repaid prior to June 30, 2023.
