F-8
Use of Estimates
The financial statements preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available when the calculations are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Investment Securities
The Company classifies securities it holds for investment purposes into trading or available-for-sale. Trading securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. All deposits not included in trading securities are classified as available for sale.
Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included in the net income. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on available for sale securities are excluded from net income. They are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific identification basis.
A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed to be other-than-temporary results in a reduction in carrying amount to fair value. The impairment is charged as an expense to the statement of income and comprehensive income, and a new cost basis for the security is established. To determine whether the impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and believes whether evidence indicating the cost of the asset is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and duration of the impairment, changes in value after year-end, and forecasted performance of the investee.
Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related available-for-sale security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.
Accounts Receivables
Accounts receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when the collection of the total amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred.
Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods, stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor, inbound shipping costs, and allocated overhead. The Company applies the weighted average cost method to its inventory.
Advances and Prepayments to Suppliers
The Company makes an advance payment to suppliers and vendors for the procurement of raw materials. Upon physical receipt and inspection of the raw materials from suppliers, the applicable amount is reclassified from advances and prepayments to suppliers to inventory.

Plant and Equipment
Plant
and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the
straight-line method. The Company typically applies a salvage value of
| Buildings | ||||
| Landscaping, plant, and tree | ||||
| Machinery and equipment | ||||
| Motor vehicles | ||||
| Office equipment |
The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the Company’s results of operations. The costs of maintenance and repairs are recognized as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:
| Land use rights | ||||
| Software licenses | ||||
| Trademarks |
Construction in Progress and Prepayments for Equipment
Construction in progress and prepayments for equipment represent direct and indirect acquisition and construction costs for plants and fees of purchase and installation of related equipment. Amounts classified as construction in progress and prepayments for equipment are transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. Depreciation is not provided for assets classified in this account.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired in a business combination. The Company conducts an annual assessment of its goodwill for impairment. If the carrying value of its goodwill exceeds its fair value, then impairment has been incurred; accordingly, a charge to the Company’s operations results will be recognized during the period. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted expected future cash flow analysis.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company annually reviews its long-lived assets for impairment or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Impairment may become obsolete from a difference in the industry, introduction of new technologies, or if the Company has inadequate working capital to utilize the long-lived assets to generate adequate profits. Impairment is present if the carrying amount of an asset is less than its expected future undiscounted cash flows.
If an asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported lower the carrying amount or fair value fewer costs to selling.

Statutory Reserves
Statutory
reserves refer to the amount appropriated from the net income following laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and
increase capital, as approved, and are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating
at a profit must appropriate and reserve, on an annual basis, an amount equal to
Foreign Currency Translation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). The Company’s assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates. Its revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate during the period. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies, and all foreign exchange transactions must be conducted through authorized financial institutions.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606 “Revenue Recognition.” It recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company derives its revenues from selling explosion-proof skid-mounted refueling device, SF double-layer buried oil storage tank, high-grade synthetic fuel products, industrial formaldehyde solution, urea-formaldehyde pre-condensate (UFC), methylal, urea-formaldehyde glue for environment-friendly artificial board chemicals, food products like frozen fruits, beef & mutton products and vegetables, tea products and online game business. The Company applies the following five steps to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
| ● | identify the contract with a customer; | |
| ● | identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| ● | determine the transaction price; | |
| ● | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and; | |
| ● | Recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |

Advertising
All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Shipping and Handling
All outbound shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred.
Research and Development
All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Retirement Benefits
Retirement benefits in the form of mandatory government-sponsored defined contribution plans are charged to either expense as incurred or allocated to inventory as part of overhead.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock compensation expense for employees at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense one time because there is no employee’s requisite service period requirement.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and recognizes deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets. If it is more likely than not, these items will either expire before the Company can realize their benefits or uncertain future realization.
Comprehensive Income
The Company uses Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except the changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders due to investments by stockholders.
Earnings Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) following ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per share.” Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per-share basis from the potential conversion of convertible securities or the exercise of options and or warrants; the dilutive impacts of potentially convertible securities are calculated using the as-if method; the potentially dilutive effect of options or warranties are computed using the treasury stock method. Potentially anti-dilutive securities (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from diluted EPS calculation.
F-12
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, accounts and other receivables, accounts and other payables, accrued liabilities, and short-term debt, have carrying amounts that approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosing the Company’s fair value of financial instruments. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
| ● | Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology used quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |
| ● | Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and information that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the financial instrument’s full term. | |
| ● | Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815.
Lease
Effective December 31, 2018, Jingshan Sanhe Luckysky New Energy Technologies Co., Ltd. adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the practical expedients that do not require us to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or fewer, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component.
Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception, therefore operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Its leases generally do not provide a residual guarantee. The operating lease ROU asset also excludes lease incentives. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. The Company has elected to include the carrying amount of operating lease liabilities in any tested asset group and it includes the associated operating lease payments in the undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows.

Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The majority of these claims and proceedings related to or arise from commercial disputes. The Company first determine whether a loss from a claim is probable, and if it is reasonable to estimate the potential loss. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. Also, the Company disclose a range of possible losses, if a loss from a claim is probable but the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, which is in line with the applicable requirements of Accounting Standard Codification 450. The Company’s management does not expect any liability from the disposition of such claims and litigation individually or in the aggregate would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments in this Update affect any entity required to apply the provisions of Topic 220, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income, and has items of other comprehensive income for which the related tax effects are presented in other comprehensive income required by GAAP. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, (1) for public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued, and (2) for all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not however been made available for issuance. The amendments in this Update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU would affect the Company’s financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” which makes several changes meant to add, modify or remove specific disclosure requirements associated with the movement amongst or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The modifications are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.
The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s balance sheets, statements of income, and comprehensive income and statements of cash flows.
3. Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”)
A VIE is an entity that has either a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity or obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity. If any, the variable interest holder with a controlling financial interest in a VIE is deemed the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. PLAG WOFE is deemed to have the controlling financial interest and be the primary beneficiary of Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd. and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. because it has both of the following characteristics:
| 1) | The power to direct activities at Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd. and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance, and |
| 2) | The obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd. and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. that could potentially be significant to such entity. Under the Contractual Arrangements, Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. pay service fees equal to all of its net income to PLAG WFOE. At the same time, PLAG WFOE is obligated to absorb all of the Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd.’s and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd.’s losses. The Contractual Arrangements are designed to operate Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. for the benefit of PLAG WFOE and ultimately, the Company. Accordingly, the accounts of Anhui Ansheng Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd. and Jilin Chuangyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition, those financial positions and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment are as follows:

| Goodwill acquired through acquisition | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goodwill impairment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Balance as of June 30, 2022 | $ | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The goodwill related to the acquisition of Fast Approach was impaired as the result of actual financial performance being less than that originally forecasted and estimates of future cash flows are at the time of this report, are expected to be less than previously estimated. The global COVID 19 pandemic was a significant macroeconomic factor that contributed to the downward revisions of previous estimation and forecasts; accordingly, after management considered different factors including COVID 19 and performed an analysis by discounting future cash flows, it determined that the fair value of the Fast unit was less than the carrying value; therefore, the Company recorded impairment of goodwill to reflect the difference between fair value and the then previously unimpaired carrying value. Management will continue to monitor for additional deterioration of cash flows.
Goodwill related to JSSH was written off in its entirety as the unit experienced operating losses in the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and based on past performance as guidance for future performance, management determined that discounted expected future cash flows and profitability from the unit were enough to support the carrying value for synergies that were expected to be realized when the Company originally acquired the unit.

Effective December 31, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the package of practical expedients that does not require us to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. The Company adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component.
The Company had a land, facilities and factory lease agreement with a 5-year lease term starting in April 2018 until April 2023. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company recognized lease liabilities of approximately $0.82 million, with corresponding Right-of-Use (ROU) assets of the same amount based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of the new lease, using an effective interest rate of 4.75%, which is determined using an incremental borrowing rate.

Our net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $27.52 million, which represents an increase of approximately $20.41 million, or 287%, from $7.11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

This increase was mainly due to the acquisition of certain subsidiaries and VIEs.

Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing Expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses increased by $0.41 million, or 79%, to $0.94 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $0.52 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 This increase was mainly due to our effort to expand our business.
General and Administrative Expenses. We experienced an increase in general and administrative expense of $0.85 million from $2.65 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to approximately $3.49 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This cost increase was mainly due to the rise in intermediary service fees.
Net Loss
Our net loss decreased by $0.10 million, or 4%, to a net loss of $2.76 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $2.66 million in net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was mainly due to our effort to expand our business.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In assessing our liquidity, we monitor and analyze our cash-on-hand and operating and capital expenditure commitments. Our liquidity needs meet our working capital requirements, operating expenses, and capital expenditure obligations. In the reporting period in the fiscal period ended June 30, 2022, our primary sources of financing have been cash generated from private placements.
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $0.38 million compared to $1.13 million as of December 31, 2021. The debt to assets ratio was 37.28% and 40.41% as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We expect to continue to finance our operations and working capital needs in 2022 from cash generated from operations and, if needed, private financings. Suppose available liquidity is insufficient to meet our operating and loan obligations as they come due. In that case, our plans include pursuing alternative financing arrangements or reducing expenditures as necessary to meet our cash requirements. However, there is no assurance that we will raise additional capital or reduce discretionary spending to provide liquidity if needed. We cannot be sure of the availability or terms of any alternative financing arrangements.

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for all financial statement periods presented in this report.
Cash Flows Data:
| For the six months ended June 30 | ||||||||
| (In thousands of U.S. dollars) | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||

| Net cash flows used in investing activities | (3,854 | ) | (7,542 | ) | ||||
| Net cash flows provided by financing activities | 10,386 | 13,882 | ||||||
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $8.20 million and $8.84 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The net cash used in operating activities during the above two periods were in the same level.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $3.85 million, representing a decrease of $3.69 million in net cash used in investing activities from $7.54 million for the same period of 2021. This is mainly due to the decrease in the acquisition of subsidiaries.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $10.39 million, representing a decrease of $3.50 million in net cash provided by financing activities from $13.88 million for the same period of 2021. This is mainly due to the less proceeds from the issuance of common stock
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the United States generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make assumptions, estimates, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes to that, and related disclosures of commitments contingencies, if any.
We consider our critical accounting policies to require the more significant judgments and estimates in preparing financial statements, including those outlined in Note 2 to the financial statements included herein.
The Company has evaluated the timing and the impact of the guidance above on the financial statements.
As of June 30, 2022, there were no other recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would or could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance arrangements.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based upon his evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective.
As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
