Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On July 2, 2025, Zhibao Technology Inc. (the “Company”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, announced that one of its subsidiaries, Zhibao Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhibao China”), a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Xuegeng Zhao and Qin’er Ye (“Sellers”), the shareholders of Zhonglian Jinan Insurance Brokers Co., Ltd. (“Zhonglian” or “Target”), and the Target, pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the SPA, Zhibao China agreed to acquire an aggregate of 51% of the equity interest in Zhonglian (the “AcquiredAssets”), including 23% of the equity interest from Xuegeng Zhao and 28% of the equity interest from Qin’er Ye, for a total purchase price of RMB25.5 million (approximately $3.5 million) (“Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment as provided in the SPA (the “Acquisition”).
The Purchase Price is based on an evaluation of RMB 50 million for the 100% of the equity interest in Zhonglian mutually agreed by Zhibao China and Sellers and shall be paid in four installments. The first three installments, each in the amount of RMB7.65 million (approximately $1.05 million), shall be payable on July 31, 2025, July 31, 2025 and January 31, 2026, respectively. The fourth installment, in the amount of RMB 2.55 million (approximately $0.35 million), is subject to adjustment in the event that the revenue generated by the Target is less than RMB 140 million (approximately $19.18 million) within one year following the full payment of the first instalment of the Purchase Price (the “DeliveryDate”). The adjustment shall be calculated based on the following formula: RMB 25.5 million times (RMB 140 million minus 100% of the Target’s revenue within one year following the Delivery Date) divided by RMB 140 million, and shall be capped at a maximum adjustment amount of RMB 1 million (approximately $0.14 million). The fourth installment is payable within 30 days following the first anniversary of the Delivery Date. Failure to pay the Purchase Price on time as stipulated in the SPA will subject Zhibao China to liquidated damages at a rate of 0.05% of the unpaid amount for each overdue day. If payment is not made within 90 days of the due date, the Sellers may elect to demand continued performance, accelerated lump-sum payment, or retain amounts paid and convert such amounts, net of liquidated damages, into equity in Zhonglian based on a RMB 50 million valuation, plus additional compensation if the liquidated damages are insufficient to cover losses.
Under the SPA, Zhibao China also has a right of first refusal to acquire an additional 34% equity interests in Zhonglian by the end of 2027 (the “SubsequentAcquisition”), provided that the Sellers and Zhonglian have fulfilled their respective obligations under the SPA, and Zhibao China has not deliberately obstructed, whether through affirmative acts or passive omissions, the normal operation and management of Zhonglian. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Zhibao China fails to complete the Subsequent Acquisition despite Zhonglian having fulfilled its obligations under the SPA, Zhibao China shall be deemed to be in breach of the SPA and shall be required to pay liquidated damages to the Sellers.
The SPA may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties. In addition, the Sellers may unilaterally terminate the SPA if Zhibao China fails to pay the first installment within the timeline specified in the SPA.

The Acquisition and related transactions shall be registered with the relevant PRC governmental authorities within a specified period following the Delivery Date, as set forth in the SPA. After such Acquisition, Zhonglian will become a PRC subsidiary of the Company, with Zhibao China directly holding 51% of its equity interest and Xuegeng Zhao holding the balance of 49%.
Zhonglian, established on June 8, 2005, is a professional insurance brokerage firm headquartered in Ningbo, China, primarily engaged in the provision of insurance brokerage services to end customers. As of the date of this filing, it has 58 branches nationwide, including 28 provincial-level branches across major regions such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, and Sichuan.

(“Zhonglian Jinan”) and Zhonglian Jinan, to acquire an aggregate of 51% of the equity interest in Zhonglian Jinan, including 23% of the equity interest from Xuegeng Zhao and 28% of the equity interest from Qin’er Ye, for a total purchase price of RMB25.5 million (approximately US$3.5 million), subject to adjustment as provided in the SPA (the “Acquisition”).

These pro forma adjustments represent the Company’s preliminary determination of purchase accounting adjustments and are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. Consequently, the amounts reflected in the pro forma financial statements are subject to change, and the final amounts may differ substantially.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under the provision of ASC 805 on the basis of the Company as the accounting acquirer of Zhonglian Jinan. Under the acquisition method, the acquisition date fair value of the gross consideration paid by the Company to close the Acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. Management of the Company has made significant estimates and assumptions in determining the preliminary allocation of the gross consideration transferred in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amount recorded may differ materially from the information presented.
The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the acquisition are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments may be revised as additional information becomes available and alternative valuation methodologies are evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments and it is possible the differences may be material. The Company believes that its assumptions and methodologies provided a reasonable basis for presenting all the significant effects of the acquisition contemplated based on information available to management at the time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the Company’s and Zhonglian Jinan’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 as if the acquisition had occurred on December 31, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations combines the Company’s and Zhonglian Jinan’s operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 and for the six months ended December 31, 2024, giving effect to the transaction as described on a pro forma basis as if the acquisition had been completed on July 1, 2023. These unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are based upon the historical financial statements of the Company and Zhonglian Jinan after considering the effect of the adjustments described in these footnotes.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial statements do not give effect to any cost savings, revenue synergies or restructuring costs which may result from the integration of the Company and Zhonglian Jinan operations. Further, actual results may be different from these unaudited pro forma combined financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and Zhonglian Jinan.

2. Estimated Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The preliminary consideration and allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of Zhonglian Jinan’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed as if the acquisition date was December 31, 2024 is presented below:
| RMB | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Consideration per the share purchase agreement | 25,500,000 | ||
| Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed | |||
| Cash and cash equivalents | 14,717,018 | ||
| Restricted cash | 2,687,118 | ||
| Accounts receivable, net | 23,413,972 | ||
| Due from related parties | 2,087,323 | ||
| Prepaid expenses and other current assets, net | 6,419,278 | ||
| Property and equipment, net | 6,173,990 | ||
| Operating lease right of use assets | 267,051 | ||
| Restricted cash, noncurrent | 5,000,000 | ||
| Other non-current assets | 1,022 | ||
| Accounts payable | (47,738,519 | ) | |
| Income tax payable | (126,988 | ) | |
| Due to related parties | - | ||
| Operating lease liabilities, current | (168,834 | ) | |
| Accrued expenses and other liabilities | (19,916,500 | ) | |
| Operating lease liabilities, noncurrent | (71,217 | ) | |
| Deferred tax liabilities | (2,538,641 | ) | |
| Total identifiable net assets (liabilities) | (9,793,927 | ) | |
| Fair Value allocated to 49% non-controlling interest | (4,799,024 | ) | |
| Goodwill | 30,494,903 |
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of Zhonglian Jinan.
The Company has not completed the detailed valuation necessary to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed and, accordingly, the adjustments to record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value reflect the best estimate of the Company based on the information currently available and are subject to change once additional analyses are completed.
As the goodwill calculation above assumed full payment of the purchase price, the final amount recorded may differ materially from the information presented.
3. Proforma Adjustments
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the acquisition and has been prepared for informational purposed only.
The historical financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give pro forma effect to events that are directly attributable to the acquisition, factually supportable, and with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the Company.
The pro forma adjustments are comprised of the following elements:
| (a) | Represents the Company’s accrual for the consideration payable<br>as a result of the acquisition and the elimination of Zhonglian Jinan’s historical equity balances. |
|---|---|
| (b) | Elimination for transactions between the Company and Zhonglian<br>Jinan. |

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Zhonglian Jinan Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Company’s Ability to Continue asa Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations, has negative cash flow from operations, and was in an accumulated deficit position. Given the Company’s financial position, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 — THE ORGANIZATION AND NATUREOF BUSINESS
Zhonglian Jinan Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on June 8, 2005, under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) as a liability company. The Company is primarily engaged in providing insurance brokerage services to end customers.
2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
For the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred an operating loss of RMB 5,282,221 and generated cash flows from operating activities of RMB 21,337,623. For the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s operating loss decreased to RMB 1,235,564 (US$ 169,272), while its cash flows from operating activities turned negative, amounting to RMB 9,789,330 (US$ 1,341,133). As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit position of RMB 35,493,828 and RMB 36,729,392 (US$ 5,031,906), respectively.
There is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to gradually mitigate operating losses in the foreseeable future through strengthening its customer cash collection efforts and extending the payment cycle of major suppliers. The Company has implemented cost saving plans to reduce discretionary operational expenses and secure additional financing including but not limited to, raising equity financing, and obtaining additional credit facilities from banks in the normal course of business. However, there are uncertainties as to whether, and there can be no assurance that the aforesaid plans can be successfully executed. Accordingly, the substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates and assumptions using the currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may cause the Company to revise its estimates. The Company bases its estimates on past experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters including, but not limited to, determinations of the useful lives and valuation of long-lived assets, estimates of allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of deferred tax assets, and other provisions and contingencies.

NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTINGPOLICIES (cont.)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. 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. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
| 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, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. |
| Level 3 — | inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. |
Financial instruments of the Company primarily comprise current assets and current liabilities including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, due from related parties, other receivables, accounts payable, other payables and due to related parties. The Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Convenience Translation
Translations of balances in the Company’s balance sheets, statements of operation and comprehensive loss and statements of cash flows from RMB into US$ as of and for year ended June 30, 2024 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB 7.2993, representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2024. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on December 31, 2024 or at any other rate.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, bank deposits, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents cash and cash equivalents legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage. As of June 30, 2024, the restricted cash of RMB 1,000,000 was held in escrow due to pending legal proceedings in which the Company is a defendant.
In its capacity as an insurance broker, the Company collects “premiums” (unremitted insurance premiums) from certain insureds and remits the “premiums” to the appropriate insurance companies. Unremitted insurance premiums are held in custody until disbursed by the Company. The Company reports such amounts as current restricted cash in the balance sheets.
Restricted cash, noncurrent represented guarantee deposits are required by China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CBIRC”) in order to protect insurance premium appropriation by insurance broker.
Accounts Receivable, Net
Accounts receivable are recorded at the gross amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts and do not bear interest. Accounts receivable represented brokerage fees receivable from insurer carriers.
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), utilize a forward-looking current expected credit losses (CECL) model for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and receivables resulting from the application of ASC 606, including contract assets.
The Company uses the roll-rate method to measure the expected credit losses of accounts receivable. The Company assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on aging schedules. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for expected credit loss after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. The estimated credit losses charged to the allowance is classified as “general and administrative expenses” in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Property and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method with the residual value based on the estimated useful lives of the class of asset, which range as follows:
| Estimated | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Category | Useful Life | Residual | ||
| Office and electronic equipment | 3-10 years | Nil%-10 | % | |
| Vehicles | 3-4 years | Nil%-5 | % | |
| Building | 20 years | 5 | % | |
| Leasehold improvements | Over the shorter of the expected life of leasehold improvements or the lease term | Nil | % |
Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred and asset improvements are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets disposed of or retired are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2024.
Operating Leases
The Company leases its offices, which are classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 842. Operating leases are required to record in the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date, and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption as the lease terms are 12 months or less.
At the commencement date, the Company recognizes the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the same term as the underlying lease.
The right-of-use asset is recognized initially at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred, consisting mainly of brokerage commissions, less any lease incentives received.

Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when the control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers, and the performance obligations under the contract have been satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services (excluding sales taxes collected on behalf of government authorities).
The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company primarily generated revenues from contracts with customers:
Insurance brokerage services
The Company offers insurance brokerage services to end customers/the insured for placing insurance policies, and the Company earns insurance brokerage commission from insurance carriers upon completing insurance brokerage services. The commission fees are calculated on a predetermined percentage of insurance premium of each insurance policy. The insurance brokerage services are considered as a single performance obligation, as the insurer carriers cannot benefit until the Company sells an insurance policy. Commission fees are recognized when the Company completes the insurance brokerage services, at which point the Company successfully places an insurance policy for the end customers/the insured.
The Company recognizes insurance brokerage commissions net of return allowances. End customers/the insured are generally entitled to return insurance policies at any time under no conditions. During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company did not record return allowance because the Company historically incurred minimal returns from end customers/the insured and the Company did not expect a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue.
Others
The Company offers various advisory services to institutional customers who seek insurance coverage for their employees, assets, and business operations. These services mainly include designing insurance plans, handling claims, and conducting risk assessments. The Company generally charges a fixed amount for service fee and recognized revenue upon completion of service delivery.

Contract balances
The Company classifies its right to consideration in exchange for services transferred to a customer as either a receivable or a contract asset. A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional as compared to a contract asset which is a right to consideration that is conditional upon factors other than the passage of time. The Company recognizes accounts receivable in its balance sheets when it performs a service in advance of receiving consideration and it has the unconditional right to receive consideration. A contract asset is recorded when the Company has transferred services to the customer before payment is received or is due, and the Company’s right to consideration is conditional on future performance or other factors in the contract. As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company did not record contract assets.
The Company capitalizes incremental costs incurred to fulfill contracts that (i) relate directly to the contract, (ii) are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy the performance obligation under the contract, and (iii) are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contract. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the current contract estimates. As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company had no deferred contract costs.
Contract liabilities are recognized if the Company receives consideration prior to satisfying the performance obligations, which include customer advances and deferred revenue under service arrangements. As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company had no contract liabilities.
Practical expedients
Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type; however, the Company’s terms generally include a requirement of payment within a period between 30 to 60 days after reconciliation of insurance premiums with insurer companies if not paid in advance. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when we transfer a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service is one year or less.
Additionally, the Company has applied the following practical expedients: 1) not to disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less, and 2) to not capitalize incremental costs of obtaining a contract if the amortization would be less than 12 months.

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses primarily consist of employee related expenses for research and development functions, and outsourced research service expenses.
Value Added Taxes
The Company is subject to VAT and related surcharges in China for providing services. The applicable VAT rate is 6% for general taxpayers. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rate to the invoiced amount of services provided (output VAT) less VAT paid on purchases made with the relevant supporting invoices (input VAT). VAT liability is recorded in the line item of accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the balance sheets. Under the commercial practice of the PRC, the Company pays VAT based on tax invoices issued.
According to the Announcement No. 19 of 2023 issued by the Ministry of Finance and State Administration of Taxation, for small-scale VAT taxpayers, the taxable sales revenue subject to a 3% collection rate will be levied at a reduced rate of 1% until December 31, 2027.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the U.S. GAAP for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.
The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not these items will be utilized against taxable income in the future. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. As of June 30, 2024, income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2023 remain open for statutory examination.

Government Grants
Government grants include cash subsidies as well as other subsidies receivable from various government agencies by the Company. Government grants are recognized as other income when all conditions attached to the grants are fulfilled and recorded in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company received and recognized government grants of RMB 530,000 and RMB 380,000, respectively.
Commitments and Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be 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.

Segment Reporting
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statements information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise engaging in businesses activities for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision makers in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews results including revenue, gross profit and operating profit at the whole company level only. The Company does not distinguish between markets for the purpose of making decisions about resources allocation and performance assessment. Therefore, the Company has only one operating segment and one reportable segment.
Concentration and Credit Risk
| 1) | Credit risk |
|---|
Assets that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The maximum exposure of such assets to credit risk is their carrying amount as at the balance sheet dates. As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, RMB 41,477,098 and RMB 31,596,103 (US$ 4,328,648) were held on hands by the Company and deposited in financial institutions in the PRC, and each bank accounts is insured by the government authority with the maximum limit of RMB 500,000. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Company primarily place cash and cash equivalent deposits with large financial institutions in China which management believe are of high credit quality and the Company also continually monitors their credit worthiness.
The risk with respect to accounts receivable and amounts due from related parties is mitigated by credit evaluations the Company performs on its customers and its ongoing monitoring processes of outstanding balances.
The Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, rates and methods of taxation among other factors.
| 2) | Foreign currency risk |
|---|
All the Company’s operating activities that were conducted in China and related assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market.
| 3) | Concentration risks |
|---|
Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from goods sold and services rendered to customers that are located primarily in China, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances. The Company has a concentration of its receivables and revenues with specific customers.
As of June 30, 2023, two customers accounted for approximately 18% and 15% of accounts receivable, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, four customers accounted for approximately 19%, 15%, 12% and 12% of accounts receivable, respectively.
For the year ended June 30, 2023, three customers accounted for approximately 16%,12% and 10% of the total revenues. For the year ended June 30, 2024, three customers accounted for approximately 20%, 12% and 11% of the total revenues.
As of June 30, 2023, two suppliers accounted for approximately 27% and 12% of accounts payable, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, three suppliers accounted for approximately 39%, 15% and 12% of accounts payable, respectively.
For the year ended June 30, 2023, there were no suppliers that accounted for more than 10% of the cost of revenues. For the year ended June 30, 2024, one supplier accounted for approximately 13% of the cost of revenues.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2023, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, ASU 2023-01, for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, which is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been made available for issuance. The new guidance introduced two issues: terms and conditions to be considered with leases between related parties under common control and accounting for leasehold improvements. The goals for the new issues are to reduce the cost associated with implementing and applying Topic 842 and to promote diversity in practice by entities within the scope when applying lease accounting requirements. The Company assessed that the adoption of ASU 2023-01 had no significant impact on the financial statements.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements — Codification Amendments in Response to SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative which amend the disclosure or presentation requirements of codification subtopic 230-10 Statement of Cash Flows — Overall, 250-10 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — Overall, 260-10 Earnings Per Share — Overall, 270-10 Interim Reporting — Overall, 440-10 Commitments — Overall, 470-10 Debt — Overall, 505-10 Equity — Overall, 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging — Overall, 860-30 Transfers and Servicing — Secured Borrowing and Collateral, 932-235 Extractive Activities — Oil and Gas — Notes to Financial Statements, 946-20 Financial Services — Investment Companies — Investment Company Activities, and 974-10 Real Estate — Real Estate Investment Trusts — Overall. The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of the above subtopics. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements or those that must provide financial statements to the SEC for securities purposes without contractual transfer restrictions, the effective date aligns with the date when the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. Early adoption is not allowed. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later from the date of the SEC’s removal. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-06 on the financial statements.
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments ASU 2023-07 should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impact that ASU 2023-07 may have on its condensed financial statement presentation and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvement to Income Tax Disclosure, which is an update to Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments in this update related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application — General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and (2) removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and statements of cash flows.

6 — LEASES
As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company leases office spaces in different cities in the PRC under non-cancelable operating leases, with terms ranging between 24 months and 36 months. The Company considers those renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the determination of the lease term and initial measurement of right of use assets and lease liabilities. Lease expense for lease payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company discount lease payments based on an estimate of the incremental borrowing rate.
For operating leases that include rent holidays and rent escalation clauses, the Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term from the date it takes possession of the leased property. The Company records the straight-line lease expense and any contingent rent, if applicable, in general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The corporate office lease also requires the Company to pay real estate taxes, common area maintenance costs and other occupancy costs which are included in the general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
For short-term leases, the Company records operating lease expense in its statements of operations and comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and record variable lease payments as incurred.

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements at end of each reporting period by reviewing all available evidence, both positive and negative, and considering whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. When circumstances cause a change in management’s judgement about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is generally reflected in income from operations. The future realization of the tax benefit of an existing deductible temporary difference ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character within the carryforward period available under applicable tax law.

As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company had net operating losses of RMB 11,531,692 and RMB 15,012,977, respectively, which will be available to offset future taxable income. If not used, these carryforwards will expire from 2025 through 2029.
As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company had valuation allowance of RMB 3,225,650 and RMB 4,122,892, respectively, against the deferred tax assets based upon management’s assessment as to their realization.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, no interest expense or penalty was accrued in relation to the unrecognized tax benefit. The Company has a liability for accrued interest of nil and nil as of June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.
ASC 740 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the technical merits. The Company records unrecognized tax benefits as liabilities or a reduction of deferred tax assets in accordance with ASC 740 and adjusts these amounts when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. However, due to the uncertain and complex application of tax regulations, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of uncertain tax positions may result in liabilities which could be materially different from these estimates. In such an event, the Company will record additional tax expense or tax benefit in the period in which such resolution occurs.
According to 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 withholding agent. The statute of limitations will be extended five years under special circumstances, which are not clearly defined (but an underpayment of tax liability exceeding RMB 0.1 million is specifically listed as a special circumstance). In the case of a related party transaction, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion.
9 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company are parties 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.
Legal proceedings
As of June 30, 2024, four customers had filed breach-of-contract lawsuits against the Company following unresolved disputes, seeking monetary settlements totaling approximately RMB 7.8 million. The claims cover compensation for losses, refunds, penalties, legal fees, and litigation costs.

1 — THE ORGANIZATION AND NATUREOF BUSINESS
Zhonglian Jinan Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on June 8, 2005, under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) as a liability company. The Company is primarily engaged in providing insurance brokerage services to end customers.
2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, the unaudited interim condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, and the related footnote disclosures are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial statements using accounting policies that are consistent with those used in the preparation of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and operating results of the Company for each of the periods presented. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024.
For the six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred an operating loss of RMB 23,064,535 (US$ 3,159,830). As of December 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit position of RMB 59,793,927 (US$ 8,191,734) and a net current liability of RMB 18,626,132 (US$ 2,551,770).
There is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to gradually mitigate operating losses in the foreseeable future through strengthening its customer cash collection efforts and extending the payment cycle of major suppliers. The Company has implemented cost saving plans to reduce discretionary operational expenses and secure additional financing including but not limited to, raising equity financing, and obtaining additional credit facilities from banks in the normal course of business. However, there are uncertainties as to whether, and there can be no assurance that the aforesaid plans can be successfully executed. Accordingly, the substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
3 — CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION
Translations of balances in the Company’s balance sheets, statements of operation and comprehensive loss from RMB into US$ as of and for year ended December 31, 2024 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB 7.2993, representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2024. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on December 31, 2024 or at any other rate.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Jinan prepares the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires 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, the financial condition or results of operations would be affected. Jinan base its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable after taking account of circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. Jinan evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis.
Jinan’s expectations regarding the future are based on available information and assumptions that it believes to be reasonable, which together form the 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, the actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of the accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.
An accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires 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 reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations. When reading the financial statements, you should consider the 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.
The critical accounting policies and practices include the following: (i) revenue recognition; (ii) accounts receivable, net; and (iii) income taxes. See Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the financial statements for the disclosure of these accounting policies.
| (a) | Allowance for credit losses |
|---|
Accounts receivable, net are stated at the original amount less an allowance for credit losses.
Jinan utilizes a forward-looking current expected credit losses (CECL) model for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and receivables resulting from the application of ASC 606, including contract assets.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, Jinan accrued provisions for credit losses of approximately RMB 0.22 million, and provisions for credit losses of approximately RMB 0.59 million (US$ 0.08 million), respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, Jinan wrote off the allowance of approximately RMB 0.02 million and RMB 1.95 million (US$ 0.27 million), respectively, against accounts receivable because the chance of collection is deemed to be remote.
| (b) | Valuation of deferred tax assets |
|---|
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. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are recoverable, management estimated that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will not generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets as June 30, 2023 and 2024. Thus, management recorded valuation allowance amounted to RMB 3.23 million and RMB 4.12 million (US$ 0.56 million) as of June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. The deferred tax assets could be utilized in the future years if the Company makes profits in the future, the valuation allowance shall be reversed.
The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The PRC operating entities in PRC are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. 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 ($13,800). 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. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.
