NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIALSTATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTIONOF BUSINESS

ATIF Holdings Limited (“ATIF” or the “Company”), formerly known as Eternal Fairy International Limited and Asia Times Holdings Limited, was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on January 5, 2015, as a holding company to develop business opportunities in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”). The Company adopted its current name on March 7, 2019.

ATIF owns 100% equity interest of ATIF Limited (“ATIF HK”), formerly known as China Elite International Holdings Limited and Asia Times International Finance Limited, a limited liability company established in Hong Kong on January 6, 2015, and adopted its current name on March 7, 2019. ATIF HK acquired a financial and news media platform www.chinacnnm.com in September 2018.

On May 20, 2015, ATIF HK incorporated Huaya Consultant (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (“Huaya”) as a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) in China. On September 5, 2018, Huaya entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the owners of Qianhai Asia Era (Shenzhen) International Financial Service Co., Ltd. (“Qianhai”), a company incorporated on November 3, 2015, under the laws of China with a registered capital of RMB5 million (approximately $0.75 million), which had been fully funded in December 2017. Qianhai is primarily engaged in providing business advisory and financial consulting services to small and medium-sized enterprise customers in the PRC.

Qianhai originally owned a 100% controlled subsidiary Qianhai Asia Era (Shenzhen) International Fund Management Co., Ltd. (“Asia Era Fund”), which had limited operation since its inception on December 11, 2015. In connection with the reorganization of the legal structure for the initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company, Asia Era Fund was spun off in two steps in August 2018 through September 2018.

Reorganization

A reorganization of the Company’s legal structure was completed on September 19, 2018 (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization involved the transfer of the ownership interest in ATIF and the spinoff of Asia Era Fund. ATIF became the ultimate holding company of ATIF HK, Huaya, and Qianhai, which were all controlled by the same shareholders before and after the Reorganization.

On September 5, 2018, Huaya entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the owners of Qianhai. These agreements include an Exclusive Service Agreement, an Equity Pledge Agreement, a Call Option Agreement, and a Shareholders’ Voting Rights Proxy Agreement (collectively “VIE Agreements”). Pursuant to the above VIE Agreements, Huaya has the exclusive right to provide Qianhai consulting services related to business operations including technical and management consulting services. All the above contractual arrangements obligate Huaya to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from business activities of Qianhai and entitle Huaya to receive a majority of Qianhai’s residual returns. In essence, Huaya has gained effective control over Qianhai. Therefore, the Company believes that Qianhai should be considered as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810 “Consolidation.”

Termination of VIE agreements with Qianai

On February 3, 2021, the Company closed termination of its variable interest entity (“VIE”) agreements with Qianhai Asia Times (Shenzhen) International Financial Services Co., Ltd. (“Qianhai”). Upon the termination, Qianhai transferred all of its business and employees to Huaya, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The termination of the Qianhai VIE agreements did not contain any penalties or non-compete agreements.

Qianhai transferred all of its China-based business and employees to Huaya before termination of the VIE agreements. The termination of the VIE agreements did not discontinue our consulting service business because such services has been transferred to Huaya and ATIF Inc. to serve the clients located in China and the United States, respectively. The termination also did not cause material impairment of our long-lived assets (primarily including fixed assets such as office furniture and equipment and automobile) because all of the fixed assets have been transferred to our PRC subsidiary Huaya upon termination of the VIE agreements. The management believed the termination of Qianhai VIE agreements does not represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The termination is not accounted as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205-20.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTIONOF BUSINESS (continued)

Acquisition of Leaping Group Co., Ltd. (“LGC”)

On April 22, 2020, the Company completed an acquisition of 51.2% of the equity interest of Leaping Group Co., Ltd. (“LGC”) from its original shareholders for a total consideration of approximately $22.92 million, including cash consideration of $1.85 million and issuance of 9,940,002 shares (1,988,000 ordinary shares retrospectively restated for accounting purposes for effect of reverse stock split on August 30, 2021) of ATIF’s common stock with fair value of approximately $21.07 million (see Note 5). LGC, through its subsidiaries and similar VIE contractual agreements, controls Leaping Media Group Co., Ltd. (“LMG”), an operating entity located in Shenyang, China. LMG, along with its operating subsidiaries, is engaged in the multi-channel advertising business, event planning and execution business, film production business and movie theater operating business (collectively “media business”) in China. LMG used to be one of the Company’s clients that sought business advisory services. Upon closing of the acquisition, ATIF owns 51.2% equity interest of LGC and hereby consolidates operations of LGC.

Disposition of LGC

On January 29, 2021, the Company completed a disposition of 51.2% of the equity interest of LGC. The Company sold all of its shares of LGC to Jiang Bo, Jiang Tao and Wang Di (collectively, the “Buyers”) in exchange for (i) 5,555,548 ordinary shares (1,111,110 ordinary shares retrospectively restated for accounting purposes for effect of reverse stock split on August 30, 2021) of the Company owned by the Buyers and (ii) payment by the Buyers in the amount of $2,300,000 plus interest at an interest rate of 10% per annum on the unpaid amount if the principal amount of US$2,300,000 is not paid by January 14, 2022. All principal and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due on January 14, 2023.

In accordance with ASC 205-20, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to 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 when the components of an entity meets the criteria in paragraph 205-20-45-1E to be classified as held for sale. The disposition of LGC met the criteria in paragraph 205-20-45-1E and was reported as a discontinued operation (Note 5).

Setup of AITF GP and ATIF LP


On January 21, 2021, the Company incorporated ATIF-1 GP, LLC (“ATIF GP”) under the laws of Delaware of the United States. ATIF GP is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and focuses on fund management business.

On February 16, 2021, ATIF-1, LP (“ATIF LP”) was established as a private equity fund through our indirectly-wholly owned subsidiary, ATIF-1 GP, LLC (“ATIF GP”), a Delaware limited liability company, as the general partner. The Company owns 39.47% limited partner interest in ATIF, LP. The investment strategy of the fund involves directional long and short investments in equity securities, primarily issued by U.S. large capitalization companies, and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) related to Chinese companies of various sizes, including private companies. The investment manager for the fund is ATIF Inc. ATIF LP manages approximately $3.8 million and $4.8 million assets under management (“AUM”) as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. For the six months ended January 31, 2022, one of the limited partners of ATIF LP withdrew the investment of $1.0 million. In addition, the Company also paid investment gain of $107,845 to the limited partner, which was recorded as a reduction of non-controlling interest.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY and GOING CONCERN

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reported net loss from continuing operations of approximately $2.3 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

In assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash and its ability to generate sufficient cash flow in the future to support its operating and capital expenditure commitments.

As of January 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $3.7 million and short-term investments in trading securities of $2.4 million, which are highly liquid at the Company’s discretion. On the other hand, the Company had current liabilities of $2.6 million. The Company also had $2.3 million receivable from buyers of LGC in connection with the disposal of LGC. If we fail to collect the amount due from buyers of LGC, we may incur significant bad debt in the near future. In addition, due to the recent intense relationship between the U.S. and China, which has become more fragile as a result of the outbreak and spread of COVID-19, plus the tightening of U.S. legislation and public listing rules to curb some small Chinese companies to access the U.S. capital markets, an increasing number of Chinese companies are putting off or slowing down their plans for U.S. listings due to these uncertainties. Also, the PRC government has recently stated that it plans to propose new rules that would ban companies with large amounts of sensitive consumer data from going public in the U.S. which could deter PRC technology firms to list abroad. The PRC government has primarily focused on firms in the internet, telecommunications and education industry from listing abroad due to political or national-security concerns. As a result of these statements, this position by the PRC government could adversely affect our business consulting services which assist PRC companies to go public in the United States. Furthermore, due to the impact of COVID-19, some of our existing customers may experience financial distress or business disruptions, which could lead to potential delay or default on their payments. Any increased difficulty in collecting accounts receivable, or early termination of our existing consulting service agreements due to deterioration in economic conditions could further negatively impact our cash flows. Given these factors, our potential customers’ perception and confidence to go public in the United States has been negatively impacted and our operating revenue and cash flows may continue to underperform in the near terms. Although we had cash of $3.7 million as of January 31, 2022, given the above-mentioned uncertainties, the management believes that the Company will continue as a going concern in the following 12 months from the date of this report.

Currently, the Company intends to finance its future working capital requirements and capital expenditures from cash generated from operating activities and funds raised from equity financings. In October 2021, the Company raised proceeds of $1.1 million from exercise of warrants to purchase 389,955 of its ordinary shares by warrant holders who subscribed for ordinary shares in the registered direct offering closed in November 2020.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

The VIE contractual arrangements

Foreign investments in domestic Chinese companies that engage in private equity investment business and media business are both restricted in China under current PRC laws and regulations. Before the termination of the Qianhai VIE agreements on February 3, 2021 and disposition of LGC on January 31, 2021 (see Note 5), the Company was operating under the VIE structure and the Company’s main operating entities Qianhai and LMG are controlled through contractual arrangements in lieu of direct equity ownership by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Risks associated with the VIE structure

The Company believes that the contractual arrangements with its VIEs and respective shareholders are in compliance with PRC laws and regulations and are legally enforceable. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’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 business and operating licenses of the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs;
discontinue or restrict the operations of any related-party transactions between the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs;
limit the Company’s business expansion in China by way of entering into contractual arrangements;
impose fines or other requirements with which the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs may not be able to comply;
require the Company or the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or
restrict or prohibit the Company’s use of the proceeds from the IPO to finance the Company’s business and operations in China.

The Company’s ability to conduct its consulting 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 its VIEs in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as it may lose the ability to exert effective control over the VIEs and its respective shareholders and it may lose the ability to receive economic benefits from its VIEs. The Company, however, does not believe such actions would result in the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, its PRC subsidiary, or its VIEs. The Company has not provided any financial support to the VIEs for the six months ended January 31, 2021.

The Company terminated the Qianhai VIE agreements on February 3, 2021 and disposed of LGC on January 31, 2021 (see Note 5), the condensed unaudited balance sheets of the Company did not include the balances of the VIEs as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021.

Noncontrolling Interests


As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, the non-controlling interest represent minority shareholders’ 60.53% ownership interest in ATIF LP, over which the Company had 39.47% ownership interest and acted as an investment manager through ATIF USA, its wholly owned subsidiary. The Company had non-controlling interest of $(76,285) and $120,809 as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, revenue recognition, provision necessary for contingent liabilities and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with commercial banks. The Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains most of its bank accounts in the PRC. Cash balances in bank accounts in the PRC are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES (continued)

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company usually determines the adequacy of reserves for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis and historical collection trends. The Company establishes a provision for doubtful receivables when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on individual exposures, as well as a provision on historical trends of collections. The provision is recorded against accounts receivables balances, with a corresponding charge recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Delinquent account balances are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, the Company did not provide allowance against accounts receivable.

Investments in Trading Securities

Equity securities not accounted for using the equity method are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, according to ASC 321 “Investments — Equity Securities”. During the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company purchased certain publicly-listed equity securities through various open market transactions and accounted for such investments as “investments in trading securities” and subsequently measure the investments at fair value. The Company reported a loss of $793,929 and a gain of $394,430 from investments in trading securities for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The straight-line depreciation method is used to compute depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Useful life
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3-5 years
Transportation vehicles 5 years

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as other income or expenses.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including plant and equipment and intangible with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values.

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, no impairment was recorded for property and equipment.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets 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 to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

Fair value of investments in trading securities are based on quoted prices in active markets. The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, deposits, due from buyers of LGC and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. For lease liabilities, fair value approximates their carrying value at the reporting dates as the interest rates used to discount the host contracts approximate market rates.


Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES (continued)

Revenue Recognition (continued)

The Company currently generates its revenue from the following main sources:

(1) Revenue from customer’sinitial registration fee

In order to engage with the Company for various consulting services, a new customer is required to pay an initial non-refundable registration fee to the Company and the Company will then post the customer’s information and profiles on its website, at which point, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied and such registration fee is recognized as revenue. The Company does not charge additional customer profile maintenance fee after the initial posting is completed as limited effort is required for the Company to maintain such information on an on-going basis. No revenues were generated from customer’s initial registration for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021.

(2) Revenue from consultingservices

The Company provides various consulting services to its members, especially to those who have the intention to be publicly listed in the stock exchanges in the United States and other countries. The Company categorizes its consulting services into three Phases:

Phase I consulting services primarily include due diligence review, market research and feasibility study, business plan drafting, accounting record review, and business analysis and recommendations. Management estimates that Phase I normally takes about three months to complete based on its past experience.

Phase II consulting services primarily include reorganization, pre-listing education and tutoring, talent search, legal and audit firm recommendation and coordination, VIE contracts and other public-listing related documents review, merger and acquisition planning, investor referral and pre-listing equity financing source identification and recommendations, and independent directors and audit committee candidate’s recommendation. Management estimates that Phase II normally takes about eight months to complete based on its past experience.

Phase III consulting services primarily include shell company identification and recommendation for customers expecting to become publicly listed through reverse merger transaction; assistance in preparation of customers’ public filings for IPO or reverse merger transactions; and assistance in answering comments and questions received from regulatory agencies. Management believes it is very difficult to estimate the timing of this phase of service as the completion of Phase III services is not within the Company’s control.

Each phase of consulting services is stand-alone and fees associated with each phase are clearly identified in service agreements. Revenue from providing Phase I and Phase II consulting services to customers is recognized ratably over the estimated completion period of each phase as the Company’s performance obligations related to these services are carried out over the whole duration of each Phase. Revenue from providing Phase III consulting services to customers is recognized upon completion of the reverse merger transaction or IPO transaction when the Company’s promised services are rendered and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied. Revenue that has been billed and not yet recognized is reflected as deferred revenue on the balance sheet.

Depending on the complexity of the underlying service arrangement and related terms and conditions, significant judgments, assumptions, and estimates may be required to determine when substantial delivery of contract elements has occurred, whether any significant ongoing obligations exist subsequent to contract execution, whether amounts due are collectible and the appropriate period or periods in which, or during which, the completion of the earnings process occurs. Depending on the magnitude of specific revenue arrangements, adjustment may be made to the judgments, assumptions, and estimates regarding contracts executed in any specific period.

Revenue Recognition (continued)


Revenue from LGC

Before the disposal of 51.2% equity interest in LGC, the Company generated revenue from Multi-Channel advertising, Event planning and execution, Movie Theater Operating and others. The revenues from these revenue streams were classified as a component of “net loss from discontinued operations” upon the close of the disposition. See Note 5.

(1) Multi-Channel advertising

The Company’s multi-channel advertising services include pre-movie advertisements display, elevator and supermarket advertising, and brand promotion. Most of the Company’s client contracts are individually negotiated and, accordingly, the service period and prices vary significantly. Service periods typically range from one day to one year.

The Company provides advertising services over the contract period. Revenues from advertising services are recognized on straight-line basis over the contract period, which approximates the pattern of when the underlying services are performed. Prepayments for advertising services are deferred and recognized as revenue when the advertising services are rendered and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company also provides advertising services through its regional distributors. Pursuant to advertising services distribution agreements, the Company grants the regional distributors the exclusive rights to provide local pre-movie advertising. The advertising services distribution agreements with these regional distributors typically have terms ranging from 11 to 24 months without automatic renewal provisions. Under the advertising services distribution agreements, the Company has the right to set the minimum local pre-movie advertisement prices in the movie theaters, regulate the content and quality of local pre-movie advertisements according to related laws and movie theater rules, and examine the source of local pre-movie advertisements and refuse to display advertisements from any competitors. The receipt of distribution fee is initially recorded as deferred revenue and is recognized as revenue ratably as services are rendered and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied.

(2) Event planning and execution

The Company’s event planning and execution business includes planning and arrangement of events, and production of related advertising materials. From the preparation of the events to executing it typically takes no more than one week. Revenue is realized when the service is performed in accordance with the client arrangement and upon the completion of the earnings process.

Revenue Recognition (continued)

(3) Movie Theater Operating

The Company’s movie theater operating revenues are generated primarily from box office admissions and theater food and beverage sales. Revenues of this business line are recognized when admissions and food and beverage sales are rendered at the theaters and are reported net of sales tax. The Company defers 100% of the revenue associated with the sales of gift cards and packaged tickets until such time as the items are redeemed.

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the disaggregation of revenues from continuing operations and discontinued operations was as below:

For the Six Months Ended January 31,
2022 2021
(unaudited) (unaudited)
Consulting service revenue from continuing operations* $ 524,155 $ 949,690
Revenue from discontinued operations (multi-channel advertising, event planning and execution and movie theater operation business under LGC) $ - $ 2,117,551
* Qianhai transferred all of its<br>China-based consulting service business and employees to Huaya before termination of the VIE agreement. The termination of the VIE agreement<br>did not cause material impairment of our long-lived assets (primarily including fixed assets such as office furniture and equipment and<br>automobile) because all of the fixed assets have been transferred to our PRC subsidiary Huaya upon termination of the VIE agreements<br>and there was no assets held for sale or disposal. The management believed the termination of Qianhai VIE agreements does not represent<br>a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The termination is<br>not accounted as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205-20.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

An uncertain tax position is recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. The Company did not have unrecognized uncertain tax positions or any unrecognized liabilities, interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefit as of January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2022, all of the Company’s income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2021 remain open for statutory examination by relevant tax authorities.

Value Added Tax (“VAT”)

Sales revenue derived from advertising service revenues is subject to VAT. The applicable VAT rate for the Company is 3% for Huaya. All of the VAT returns of the Company have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted 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 six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no dilutive shares.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency for ATIF is the U.S Dollar (“US$”). ATIF HK uses Hong Kong dollar as its functional currency. However, ATIF currently only serve as the holding company and did not have active material operations as of the date of this report. The Company operates its business through ATIF HK and Huaya as of January 31, 2022. The functional currency of the Huaya is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been translated into US$.

Assets and liabilities accounts are translated using the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. 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 translations 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 US$ at the rates used in translation.

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in creating the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this report:

Average rate for the six months ended January 31,
Foreign currency July 31,<br> <br>2021 2022 2021
RMB: 1 0.1572 0.1547 0.1560 0.1497
HKD: 1 0.1282 0.1282 0.1282 0.1290

All values are in US Dollars.

Comprehensive loss

Comprehensive loss consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive loss.

The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in RMB to US$ is reported in other comprehensive loss in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Operating Leases

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842) since August 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition method permitted under ASU No. 2018-11. This transition approach provides a method for recording existing leases only at the date of adoption and does not require previously reported balances to be adjusted. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. The standard did not materially impact the consolidated net earnings and cash flows.

Upon adoption of ASC 842, the lease liabilities are recognized upon lease commencement for operating leases based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. As the rates implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined, the incremental borrowing rates at the lease commencement date are used in determining the imputed interest and present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rates were determined using a portfolio approach based on the rates of interest that the Company would have to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The Company recognizes the single lease cost on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term for operating leases.

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less; expenses for these leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.


Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are formulated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Discontinued operation

In accordance with ASC 205-20, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to 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 when the components of an entity meets the criteria in paragraph 205-20-45-1E to be classified as held for sale. When all of the criteria to be classified as held for sale are met, including management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the entity, the major current assets, other assets, current liabilities, and noncurrent liabilities shall be reported as components of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. At the same time, the results of all discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes (benefit), shall be reported as components of net income (loss) separate from the net income (loss) of continuing operations in accordance with ASC 205-20-45.


Segment reporting

The Company had four operating business lines, including Business Advisory and Consulting Services, Multi-channel Advertising Services, Event Planning and Execution Services and Movie Theater Operation Services. However, due to changes in our organizational structure associated with the LGC, which engaged in Multi-channel Advertising Services, Event Planning and Execution Services and Movie Theater Operation Services, as a discontinued operation (Note 5 – Discontinued operation), management has determined that the Company now operates in one operating segment with one reporting segment as of January 31, 2022, which is the consulting service business.

Reclassification

Certain items in the financial statements of comparative period have been reclassified to conform to the financial statements for the current period, primarily for the reverse split of the Company’s ordinary shares (see Note 14 for detail). ****

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, which cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss is incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability is accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

Risks and Uncertainty

The Company’s major operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as the general state of the PRC’s economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The Company’s major operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

In light of the PRC providing new guidance to and restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore, including PRC government-led cybersecurity reviews, the Chairman of the SEC has requested his staff to review disclosures from offshore issuers associated with China-based operating companies in connection with the filing of registration statements in the United States. In particular, the SEC Chairman was concerned about an investor’s understanding of a VIE contract structure. We previously conducted our consulting service business through Qianhai utilizing a VIE contract structure which relationship was terminated in February 2021. In connection with our internal reorganization in January and February 2021, we disclosed that Huaya, a wholly owned subsidiary of ATIF, will serve as our business center in PRC for clients located in the PRC and ATIF Inc., a newly established subsidiary in the United States, will serve our clients located in the United States. However, if we conduct business in the PRC in the future with a PRC entity using a VIE contract structure, that business structure may subject us to further review by the SEC.

Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.

(a) Credit risk

Substantially all of the Company’s operating activities are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

As of January 31, 2022, $68,754 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in Mainland China, and each bank accounts is insured by the government authority with the maximum limit of RMB 500,000 (equivalent to approximately $78,600). As of January 31, 2022, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $386,282 deposited in the banks located in Hong Kong and British Virgin Islands, which are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance or other insurance, and held cash and cash equivalents of $186,433 deposited in the banks located in the U.S. which are insured by FDIC up to $250,000, and held cash and cash equivalents of $3,077,712 deposited in the investment bank accounts located in the U.S. which are not insured by FDIC.

Risks and Uncertainty (continued)

(b) Concentration risk

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

The Company’s sales are made to customers that are located primarily in China. The Company has a concentration of its revenues and receivables with specific customers. For six months ended January 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 95% of the Company’s total revenue. For the six months ended January 31, 2021, two customers accounted for 54% and 41% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively.

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, substantially all of the Company’s revenues was generated from providing going public related consulting services to customers. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s plan to transition its consulting services from the PRC based customers to more international customers.

(c) Other risks and uncertainties

The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may also be negatively impacted by risks related to natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, health epidemics and other catastrophic incidents, which could significantly disrupt the Company’s operations.

The Company’s operations have been affected by the outbreak and spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The COVID-19 outbreak is causing lockdowns, travel restrictions, and closures of businesses. The Company’s businesses have been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak to a certain extent.

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, in early February 2020, the Chinese government required the nationwide closure of many business activities in the PRC to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and protect public health. As a result, the Company temporarily suspended its consulting services for the period from February to March 2020. Furthermore, some of the Company’s existing customers have experienced financial distress and disruption of business, which resulted in delay or default on their payments.

As of the date of this filing, the spread of COVID-19 in China have slowed down and most provinces and cities have resumed business activities under the guidance and support of the local government. Nevertheless, the continued uncertainties associated with COVID 19 may cause the Company’s revenue and cash flows to underperform in the next 12 months. A resurgence could negatively affect the execution of the going public consulting service agreements and the collection of the payments from customers. The extent of the future impact of COVID-19 is still highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the financial statement reporting date.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES (continued)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 was subsequently amended by Accounting Standards Update 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—CreditLosses, Accounting Standards Update 2019-04 Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, and Accounting Standards Update 2019-05, Targeted TransitionRelief. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 and its amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. For all other entities, this guidance and its amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. As an emerging growth company, the Company plans to adopt this guidance effective August 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2019-10”). ASU 2019-10 (i) provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards and (ii) amends the effective dates for certain major new accounting standards to give implementation relief to certain types of entities. Specifically, ASU 2019-10 changes some effective dates for certain new standards on the following topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC): (a) Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) – now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021; (b) Leases (ASC 842) – now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021; (c) Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (ASC 326) – now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and (d) Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (ASC 350) – now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the cumulative effect resulting from the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued ASUs by the FASB, except for the ones mentioned above, have no material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATION OF LGC


On January 29, 2021, the Company completed a disposition of 51.2% of the equity interest of LGC. The Company sold all of its shares of LGC to Jiang Bo, Jiang Tao and Wang Di (collectively, the “Buyers”) in exchange for (i) 5,555,548 ordinary shares (1,111,110 ordinary shares retrospectively restated for accounting purposes for effect of reverse stock split on August 30, 2021) of the Company owned by the Buyers and (ii) payment by the Buyers in the amount of $2,300,000 plus interest at an interest rate of 10% per annum on the unpaid amount if the principal amount of $2,300,000 is not paid by January 14, 2022.

NOTE 10 – OPERATING LEASES

The Company leases offices space under non-cancelable operating leases, with lease terms ranging between 14 months to 36 months. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Rent expense for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 was $271,240 and $269,386, respectively.

Effective August 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new lease accounting standard using a modified retrospective transition method, which allows the Company not to recast comparative periods presented in its consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company to not reassess whether any existing contracts contain a lease, to not reassess historical lease classification as operating or finance leases, and to not reassess initial direct costs. The Company has not elected the practical expedient to use hindsight to determine the lease term for its leases at transition. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components in determining the ROU assets and related lease obligation. Adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of operating lease ROU assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities as disclosed below. ROU assets and related lease obligations are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term.

The following table presents the operating lease related assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheets as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021.

(b) Corporate Income Taxes (“CIT”)

The Company is subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled.

British Virgin Islands

Under the current laws of the British Virgin Islands, the Company is not subject to tax on income or capital gains in the British Virgin Islands. Additionally, upon payments of dividends to the shareholders, no British Virgin Islands withholding tax will be imposed.

Hong Kong

ATIF HK is subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 16.5%. However, ATIF HK did not generate any assessable profits arising in or derived from Hong Kong for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, and accordingly no provision for Hong Kong profits tax has been made in these periods.

PRC

The PRC Corporate Income Tax (“CIT”) is calculated based on the taxable income determined under the applicable CIT Law and its implementation rules, which became effective on January 1, 2008. CIT Law imposes a unified income tax rate of 25% for all resident enterprises in China, including both domestic and foreign invested enterprises. Huaya qualifies as a Small and Low Profit Enterprise, and is subject to a preferential EIT of 10%.

USA

For the US jurisdiction, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on its business operations. The federal tax rate is 21% and state tax rate is 8.84%. The Company also evaluated the impact from the recent tax reforms in the United States, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions Act (“HERO Act”), which both were passed in 2020, no material impact on the Company is expected based on the analysis. The Company will continue to monitor the potential impact going forward.

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not incur current and deferred income tax expense.

Deferred tax assets

The Company’s deferred tax assets are comprised of the following:

Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for doubtful account $ 119,836 $ 105,059

Deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 997,378 769,267
Less: valuation allowance (997,378 ) (769,267 )
Net deferred tax assets $ - $ -

The Company follows ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates, applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company’s deferred tax assets primarily derived from the net operating loss (“NOL”) and allowance for doubtful accounts. For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company suffered net operating losses due to reduced number of customers for ATIF’s consulting service. The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and reduces the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent it believes a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of the deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience, expectation of future income, the carry forward periods available for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors. As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, management believes that the realization of the deferred tax assets appears to be uncertain and may not be realizable in the near future. Therefore, a 100% valuation allowance has been provided against the deferred tax assets.

NOTE 13 – TAXES (continued)

Uncertain tax positions

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized and recorded as necessary in the provision for income taxes. The Company is subject to income taxes in the PRC. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB 100,000. In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. There were no uncertain tax positions as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021 and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months.

NOTE 14 – EQUITY

Ordinary Shares

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on January 5, 2015. Prior to the Reorganization, the Company was authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 ordinary shares with par value of $0.0004 per share and 50,000,000 shares were issued at par value. On August 21, 2018, the Company amended its Memorandum of Association and passed corporate authorizations to redeem and cancel the 50,000,000 issued shares and simultaneously increased the number of the authorized shares to 100,000,000,000 and increased the par value of each share to $0.001.

Statutory reserve and restricted net assets

Huaya, the Company’s subsidiary incorporated the PRC, is required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, comprising the statutory surplus reserve and the discretionary surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the statutory surplus reserve are required to be at least 10% of the after-tax net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s registered capital. Appropriations to the discretionary surplus reserve are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The statutory reserve may be applied against prior year losses, if any, and may be used for general business expansion and production or increase in registered capital, but are not distributable as cash dividends.

The payment of dividends by entities organized in China is subject to limitations, procedures and formalities. Regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. The results of operations reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S GAAP may differ from those in the statutory financial statements of the WFOEs and VIEs. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company out of China is subject to examination by the banks designated by State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

In light of the foregoing restrictions, Huaya is restricted in its ability to transfer their net assets to the Company. Foreign exchange and other regulations in the PRC may further restrict its subsidiary in the PRC from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances.

As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, the restricted amounts as determined pursuant to PRC statutory laws totaled $355,912 and $355,912, respectively, and total restricted net assets amounted to $962,374 and $962,374, respectively.

NOTE 15 – CONTIGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. 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.

(a) Arbitration with Huale Group Co., Limited (“Huale”)

On November 4, 2019, the Company received an arbitration notice from Shenzhen Court of International Arbitration (the “Court”), pursuant to which, the Company’s former customer Huale Group Co., Limited (“Huale”) filed the arbitration with the Court against the Company and requested a refund of $300,000 consulting service fee that Huale paid to the Company in 2017. Huale suspended its original plan after the Company already provided certain consulting services outlined in their consulting agreement. Both parties were in dispute over whether or not the initial payment of $300,000 should be refunded.

On September 25, 2020, the Court issued a final judgment ruling in favor of Huale and required the Company to return a deposit of $250,000 to Huale and pay arbitration fee and counterclaim fee of $11,724 (RMB 81,844). Based on the Court ruling, the Company accrued legal liabilities of $261,724 on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which was still outstanding by the date of this report.

NOTE 15 – CONTIGENCIES (continued)

(b) Pending Legal Proceeding with<br>Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”)

On May 14, 2020, Boustead filed a lawsuit against the Company and LGC for breaching the underwriting agreement Boustead had with each of the Company and LGC, in which Boustead was separately engaged as the exclusive financial advisor to provide financial advisory services to the Company and LGC.

In April 2020, the Company acquired 51.2% equity interest in LGC after LGC terminated its efforts to launch an IPO on its own. Boustead alleged that the acquisition transaction between the Company and LGC was entered into during the lockup period of the exclusive agreement between Boustead and LGC, and therefore deprived Boustead of compensation that Boustead would otherwise have been entitled to receive under its exclusive agreement with LGC. Therefore, Boustead is attempting to recover from the Company an amount equal to a percentage of the value of the transaction it conducted with LGC.

Boustead’s Complaint alleges four causes of action against the Company, including breach of contract; breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; tortious interference with business relationships and quantum meruit.

On October 6, 2020, ATIF filed a motion to dismiss Boustead’s Complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) and 12(b)(5).  On October 9, 2020, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York directed Boustead to respond to the motion or amend its Complaint by November 10, 2020.  Boustead opted to amend its complaint and filed the amended complaint on November 10, 2020.  Boustead’s amended complaint asserts the same four causes of action against ATIF and LGC as its original complaint. The Company filed another motion to dismiss Boustead’s amended complaint on December 8, 2020.

On August 25, 2021, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York granted ATIF’s motion to dismiss Boustead’s first amended complaint. In its order and opinion, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York allowed Boustead to move for leave to amend its causes of action against ATIF as to breach of contract and tortious interference with business relationships, but not breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and quantum meruit. On November 4, 2021, Boustead filed a motion seeking leave to file a second amended complaint to amend its cause of action for Breach of Contract. The Court granted Boustead’s motion for leave and Boustead filed the second amended complaint on December 28, 2021. On January 18, 2022, we filed our motion to dismiss Boustead’s second amended complaint. Boustead filed its opposition on February 1, 2022 and we replied on February 8, 2022. The Court has yet to rule on that motion.

ATIF is currently evaluating how it will respond to Boustead’s motion for leave. As such, the Boustead litigation is currently in the pleadings stage. ATIF’s management believes it is premature to assess and predict the outcome of this pending litigation.

Overview

We are a consulting company offering financial consulting services to small and medium-sized enterprise customers. Our goal is to become an international financial consulting company with clients and offices globally. Since our inception in 2015, we have primarily focused on helping clients going public on the OTC markets and exchanges in the United States (U.S.), but we are in the process of expanding our service to listing clients on domestic exchanges in China as well as the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

On January 29, 2021, the Company completed a disposition of 51.2% of the equity interest of LGC. The Company sold all of its shares of LGC to Jiang Bo, Jiang Tao and Wang Di (collectively, the “Buyers”) in exchange for (i) 5,555,548 ordinary shares of the Company owned by the Buyers and (ii) payment by the Buyers in the amount of $2,300,000 plus interest at an interest rate of 10% per annum on the unpaid amount if the principal amount of US$2,300,000 is not paid by January 14, 2022. All principal and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due on January 14, 2023.

On February 3, 2021, we closed termination of our variable interest entity (“VIE”) agreements with Qianhai Asia Times (Shenzhen) International Financial Services Co., Ltd. (“Qianhai”) and its shareholders. As of the date of this report, we do not, and do not plan to use variable interest entities to execute our business plan or to conduct our China-based operations. Qianhai transferred all of its China-based business and employees to Huaya Consultant (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (“Huaya”) before termination of the VIE agreements. The termination of the VIE agreements did not cause material impairment of our long-lived assets (primarily including fixed assets such as office furniture and equipment and automobile) because all of the fixed assets have been transferred to our PRC subsidiary Huaya upon termination of the VIE agreements and there were no assets held for sale or disposal. The termination of the Qianhai VIE agreements does not represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the Company’s operations because our consulting service business as originally undertook by Qianhai has been transferred to Huaya and ATIF Inc. to serve the clients located in China and U.S. respectively. The termination of the VIE agreements did not cause any regulatory penalties or non-compete agreements. As a result, management concluded that the termination of the Qianhai VIE agreements is not deemed to be a discontinued operation of our consulting service business.

On February 16, 2021, ATIF-1, LP (“ATIF LP”) was established as a private equity fund through our indirectly-wholly owned subsidiary, ATIF-1 GP, LLC (“ATIF GP”), a Delaware limited liability company, as the general partner. We own 39.47% limited partner interest in ATIF LP. The investment strategy of the fund involves directional long and short investments in equity securities, primarily issued by U.S. large capitalization companies, and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) related to Chinese companies of various sizes, including private companies. The investment manager for the fund is ATIF Inc. ATIF LP manages approximately $3.8 million and $4.8 million assets under management (“AUM”) as of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. For the six months ended January 31, 2022, one of the limited partners of ATIF LP withdrew the investment of $1.0 million. In addition, the Company also paid investment gain of $107,845 to the limited partner, which was recorded as a reduction of non-controlling interest.

On August 12, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share, at a ratio of 5-for-1 so that every five (5) shares of US$0.001 par value in issue on the date of the Reverse Split was combined into one (1) share of US$0.005 par value. Shareholders otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the reverse stock split will receive a whole share in lieu of such factional share, as relevant. Both before and after completion of the Reverse Split, the Company is and will be authorized to issue 100,000,000,000 ordinary shares of US$0.001 par value each. As a result of the Reverse Split, the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares was reduced from 45,806,952 ordinary shares of US$0.001 par value each to approximately 9,161,390 ordinary shares of par value $0.005 per share. On August 23, 2021, we amended our Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association in connection with our five-for-one reverse stock split to amend the par value back to $0.001 per ordinary share. Our ordinary shares, as adjusted per the Reverse Split, began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 30, 2021. References to our ordinary shares below have been adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Split.

Our financial consulting services

We launched our consulting services in 2015. Our aim was to assist these Chinese enterprises by filling the gaps and forming a bridge between PRC companies and overseas markets and exchanges. We have a team of qualified and experienced personnel with legal, regulatory, and language expertise in several overseas jurisdictions. Our services are designed to help SMEs in China achieve their goal of becoming public companies. We create a going public strategy for each client based on many factors, including our assessment of the client’s financial and operational situations, market conditions, and the client’s business and financing requirements. Since our inception and up to the date of this report, we have successfully helped three Chinese enterprises to be quoted on the U.S. OTC markets and are currently assisting our other clients in their respective going public efforts. All of our current and past clients have been Chinese companies, and we plan to expand our operations to other countries, such as United States, Canada and Mexico, by 2022.

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, we provided going public consulting services to one and two customers, respectively. The low volume of consulting services was due to the recent intense tariff issues between the U.S. and China, which has become more fragile as a result of the outbreak and spread of COVID-19, plus the tightening of U.S. legislation and public listing rules to curb some small Chinese companies to access the U.S. capital markets. As a result, an increasing number of Chinese companies are putting off or slowing down their plans for U.S. listings due to these uncertainties

Our total revenue generated from consulting services amounted to $524,155 and $949,690 for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Key Factors that Affect Operating Results

The trade disputes between China and the United States has negativelyimpacted our business.

During the past two years, the U.S. government has, among other actions, imposed new or higher tariffs on specified products imported from China to penalize China for what it characterizes as unfair trade practices and China has responded by imposing new or higher tariffs on specified products imported from the United States. The uncertainties arising from the trade disputes between China and the United States negatively impacted our potential customers’ confidence to go public through IPOs in the United States during the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021. As a result, both the number of our new going public consulting service customers and our going public consulting service revenue decreased during the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021.

Our business success depends on our ability to acquire customerseffectively.

Our customer acquisition channels primarily include our sales and marketing campaigns and existing customer referrals. In order to acquire customers, we have made significant efforts in building mutually beneficial long-term relationships with local government, academic institutions, and local business associations. In addition, we also market our consulting services through social media, such as WeChat or Weibo. If any of our current customer acquisition channels becomes less effective, if we are unable to continue to use any of these channels or if we are not successful in using new channels, we may not be able to attract new customers in a cost-effective manner or convert potential customers into active customers or even lose our existing customers to our competitors. To the extent that our current customer acquisition and retention efforts become less effective, our service revenue may be significantly impacted, which would have a significant adverse effect on our revenues, financial condition, and results of operations.

2

Our consulting business faces strong market competition.

We are currently facing intense market competition. Some of our current or 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, and support of their customer acquisition and retention channels. In light of the low barriers to entry in the financial consulting industry, we expect more players to enter this market and increase the level of competition. Our ability to differentiate our services from other competitors will have significant impact on our business growth in the future.

Changes in PRC regulatory environment may impact our businessand results of operations.

The regulatory environment for the financial consulting industry in China is evolving. Recently, many local governments have established various subsidization schemes and policies to stimulate and encourage local business enterprises to go public, and this may stimulate the growth of more financial consulting firms to become new players given the low barrier of entry into the financial consulting industry as well. As more players enter into the competition, PRC governmental authorities may publish and promulgate various new laws and rules to regulate the financial consulting marketplace. We have been closely tracking the development and implementation of new rules and regulations likely to affect us. We will continue to ensure timely compliance with any new rules and regulations and believe that such timely compliance is essential to our growth. To the extent that we may be required to adapt our operations to new laws and regulations, our operating costs may increase which will impact our profitability.

Our business depends on our ability to attract and retain keypersonnel.

We rely heavily on the expertise and leadership of our directors and officers to maintain our core competence. Under their leadership, we have been able to achieve rapid expansion and significant growth since our inception in 2015. As our business scope increases, we expect to continue to invest significant resources in hiring and retaining a deep talent pool of financial consultancy professionals. Our ability to sustain our growth will depend on our ability to attract qualified personnel and retain our current staff.

Revenues. We primarily generated revenues from consulting services. Our total revenue decreased by $425,535, or 45%, to $524,155 for the six months ended January 31, 2022, from $949,690 for the six months ended January 31, 2021. For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, we provided going public consulting services to one and two customers, respectively.

The low volume in consulting services was mainly caused by changes of market conditions and financial health of our customers affected by the outbreak and spread of COVID-19. Furthermore, due to the recent intense tariff issues between the U.S. and China, which has become more fragile as a result of the outbreak and spread of COVID-19, plus the tightening of U.S. legislation and public listing rules to curb some small Chinese companies to access the U.S. capital markets, an increasing number of Chinese companies are putting off or slowing down their plans for U.S. listings due to these uncertainties. As a result, our potential customers’ perception and confidence to go public through initial public offerings (“IPOs”) in the United States has been negatively impacted.

We established new branch offices in Hong Kong and the United States in 2020 to increase our exposure. We also plan to hire more specialized and talented employees in order to provide better services to our customers in the future. We believe our competitive strengths, including but not limited to, highly qualified professional service team with extensive experience in going public and consulting services, recognition and reputation of our services achieved from our previous success helping our clients going public, established long-term professional relationships with a group of well-known third-party professional providers both domestically and in the U.S., and established long-term cooperation relationships with local chambers of commerce and associations, will help us develop more customers for our consulting services to generate increased revenue in the long run.

Selling expenses. Our selling expenses primarily consisted of outsourced service fees charged by third-party service providers, business development expenses, referral commissions, salary and welfare expenses of our business development team, and business travel expenses.


Selling expenses decreased by $92,985, or 41%, from $227,188 for the six months ended January 31, 2021 to $134,203 for the six months ended January 31, 2022. The decrease in our selling expenses was primarily due to our termination of VIE agreements with Qianhai in February 2021, and we thus incurred less payroll and welfare expenses for sales persons for the six months ended January 31, 2022. In addition, our outsourced professional service fees also decreased because we did not engage outsourced professionals to perform due diligence work on potential customers for the six months ended January 31, 2022.

General and administrativeexpenses. Our general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of salary and welfare expenses of management and administrative team, office expenses, operating lease expenses, bad debt expense and professional fees such as audit and legal fees. Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $623,358, or 26%, from $2,419,523 for the six months ended January 31, 2021 to $1,796,165 for the six months ended January 31, 2022. The decrease in our general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a decrease of $608,031 in amortization expenses on intangible assets identified in acquisition of LGC. With the disposal of LGC in January 31, 2021, the Company fully impaired of the intangible assets and no amortization expenses were recognized.

(Loss) Gain from investmentin trading securities. (Loss) gain from investments in trading securities represented unrealized gains from investment in trading securities, which was measured at market price. For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a loss from investment in trading securities of $793,929 and a gain from investment int trading securities of $394,430, respectively.

Income taxes. Our parent company ATIF was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Under the current laws of the British Virgin Islands, ATIF is not subject to tax on income or capital gain. Additionally, upon payments of dividends to the shareholders, no British Virgin Islands withholding tax will be imposed.

ATIF HK is subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 16.5%. However, they did not have any assessable profits arising in or derived from Hong Kong for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, and accordingly no provision for Hong Kong profits tax had been made in these periods.

4

Huaya was incorporated in the PRC. Under the Income Tax Laws of the PRC, Huaya is subject to income tax at a rate of 10% under the preferential tax treatment to Smaller-scale Taxpayers.

Income tax expenses were $nil and $nil for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, which was mainly due to net operating loss carried-forwards.

Net loss from discontinuedoperations, net of income taxes. During the six months ended January 31, 2021, the net loss from discontinued operations was comprised of a net loss of $1,142,160 from discontinued operations of LGC and a loss of $5,483, 738 from disposal of the discontinued operations of LGC.

For details of our discontinued operations, please refer to Note 5 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Net loss. As a result of the foregoing, net loss was $2,253,694 for the six months ended January 31, 2022, representing a decrease of $5,728,484 from net loss of $7,982,178 in the six months ended January 31, 2021.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, working capital loans from our major shareholders, proceeds from our initial public offering, and equity financing through public offerings of our securities. We plan to support our future operations primarily from cash generated from our operations and cash on hand.

Liquidity and Going concern

For the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reported net loss from continuing operations of approximately $2,253,694 and $1,356,280, respectively. In assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the Company monitors and analyzes its cash and its ability to generate sufficient cash flow in the future to support its operating and capital expenditure commitments.

As of January 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,719,278 and short-term investment in trading securities of $2,437,994, which are highly liquid at our discretion. On the other hand, we had current liabilities of $2,563,968. Based on our financial position as of January 31, 2022, the management believes that we will continue as a going concern in the following 12 months.

Currently, the Company intends to finance its future working capital requirements and capital expenditures from cash generated from operating activities and funds raised from equity financings. In October 2021, the Company raised proceeds of $1.1 million from exercise of warrants to purchase 389,955 of its ordinary shares by warrant holders who subscribed for ordinary shares in the registered direct offering which closed in November 2020.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China and all of our revenue, expenses, cash, and cash equivalents are denominated in RMB. Due to the PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into U.S. dollars, we may have difficulty distributing any dividends outside of China.

We have not declared nor paid any cash dividends to our shareholders. We do not plan to pay any dividends out of our restricted net assets as of January 31, 2022.

We have limited financial obligations denominated in U.S. dollars, thus the foreign currency restrictions and regulations in the PRC on the dividends distribution will not have a material impact on our liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations.

D. Trend Information

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this annual report, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events for the six months ended January 31, 2022 that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our net revenues, income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that are reasonably likely to cause the disclosed information to be not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial conditions.

E. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There were no off-balance sheet arrangements for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, that have or that in the opinion of management are likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

F. Critical Accounting Estimate


We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires our management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We base our estimates on our own historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable after taking account of our circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. We evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis.

Our expectations regarding the future are based on available information and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. When reading our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, you should consider our selection of critical accounting policies, the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of such policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions.

Valuation allowancefor deferred tax assets

We account for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in earnings. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance through a charge to income tax expense when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

We operate through our subsidiaries. The valuation allowance is considered on an individual entity basis. As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets are provided because we believe that it is more-likely-than-not that certain of the subsidiaries will not be able to generate sufficient taxable income in the near future, to realize the deferred tax assets carried-forwards.

As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, the total valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $997,378 and $769,267, respectively.

Uncertain tax position

In order to assess uncertain tax positions, we apply a more likely than not threshold and a two-step approach for the tax position measurement and financial statement recognition. Under the two-step approach, the first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. we recognize interest and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet and under other expenses in its consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. As of January 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, we did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

Fair value of trading securities

We measured our trading securities, which consisted of certain publicly-listed equity securities through various open market transactions, at market value. We reported a loss of $793,929 and a gain of $394,430 from investments in trading securities for the six months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
