Management Commentary

For the six months ended March 31, 2023, mainland China experienced a transition from strict control of the COVID-19 pandemic to a full deregulation. Right after the full deregulation, most of the population was infected with the COVID-19 virus. Most industries nearly came to a halt in operations from late November 2022 to early January 2023, gradually returning to normal operations during China’s 2023 Spring Festival in late January 2023. During this period, the production and business activities in all departments of the Company were severely impacted, resulting in a decline in our semi-annual revenue compared to the same period last year and an increase in losses.

In addition to macroeconomic factors, increased competition in the e-bicycles industry, after business constraints were eased in China also led to a significant decline in sales of our products and gross profit in February and March 2023. Two of our major competitors also initiated a new round of price cuts resulting in even greater downward pressure on our product sales.

Based on management’s assessment of macroeconomics and industrial competition, along with our own resource endowment, management has adjusted our business strategies as follows: (i) we halted the production of low and middle-end products and focused on the design, development, and production of mid-to-high-speed electric motorcycles through joint ventures or partnerships; (ii) we further enhanced the development and market promotion of lithium battery products for low-speed vehicles (including e-bicycle, e-tricycle and low-speed four-wheeled scooters ); (iii) we have actively expanded overseas sales channels for our products, in the hope of alleviating our dependency on current domestic sales channels; and (iv) we also made equity investments in some of the high-quality suppliers in the electric motorcycles and lithium battery industry.

Financial Review for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2023

Net Revenues

Net revenues from continuing operations for the six months ended March 31, 2023 were approximately $5.2 million, a 14.4% decrease from approximately $6.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in revenues was mainly driven by the decrease in sales of e-bicycles, and partially offset by the increase of sales of battery and battery packs.

The following table identifies revenue from continuing operations and discontinued operations, as well as reportable segments for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

		For the six months ended March 31,								Change

The e-bicycles sales segment engaged in online and offline sales of e-bicycles. The revenue of sales of e-bicycles decreased to approximately $1.1 million, or 26.0%, for the six months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, mainly due to the repeated outbreaks of COVID-19 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and adjustments made to selling policies.

Revenue generated from the battery cells and packs segment for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $1.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, a 9.6% increase derived from new customers and continuing relationships with long-term customers, as a mitigated measure to reduce the impact of COVID-19 and increased market competition on sales of e-bicycles.

Cost of Revenue

The cost of revenue s attributable the e-bicycles sales segment decreased by approximately $1.1 million, or approximately 27.0%, for the six months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, which was primarily due to a reduction in sales of e-bicycles as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak in the fourth quarter of 2022. This decrease directly corresponded with the decrease in revenue from sales of e-bicycles.

The cost of revenue attributable to the battery cells and packs segment increased by approximately $155,000, or approximately 10.3%, for the six months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, which was primarily due to the increased sales of battery cells and packs as a result of customer growth. The increase directly corresponded with the increase in revenue from the sales of batteries and battery packs segment.

Gross Profit

The gross profit attributable to the e-bicycles sales segment for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $76,000 and $46,000, respectively, representing 2.5% and 1.7% of e-bicycles sales revenue. The increase of gross profit during the six months ended March 31, 2023 is primarily due to capacity reduction on e-bicycles sales as a result of a lower gross profit margin rate on sales by Tianjin Dilang Technologies Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Jiahao Bicycle Co., Ltd. (“Tianjin Jiahao”).

The gross profit attributable to the battery cells and packs segment for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $67,000 and $71,000, respectively, representing 3.9% and 4.5% of battery cells and packs sales revenue. The increase of gross profit during the six months ended March 31, 2023 is primarily due to the increase in the sales price of battery cells and packs in 2023.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits expense, advertising expense, and freight expense. Our selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately $281,000, or approximately 49.6%, to approximately $286,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 from approximately $567,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2022. Such decrease was attributable to a reduction in salaries and benefits expense and advertising expense, which was a result of a reduction in the amount of salespersons and a reduction in expenditures on exhibition promotion in direct relation to the Company's reduction of sales of e-bicycles.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $268,000, or approximately 12.8%, to approximately $2.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 from approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the addition of share-based compensation expenses as a result of the restricted shares granted to employees and external consultants in August 2022 and January 2023.

Other expense/(income), net

We recorded other expense, net of $2.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and other income of $352,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The significant increase in other expense, net is primarily attributable to the loss from disposal of Tianjin Jiahao on March 31, 2022, which was approximately $2.6 million.

Income Tax Expense/(Benefits)

Income tax benefits was approximately $15,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and income tax expense was approximately $519,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2022. The change from income tax expense to income tax benefits is primarily due to the tax loss carrying forwards of the newly established wholly-owned subsidiaries in 2022 covered the change in valuation allowance accrued for deferred tax assets.

Net Loss

Net loss for the six months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately $5.0 million, compared to approximately $2.7 million for the same period in 2022, as a result of the explanations provided above.

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements (“CFS”) were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and have been consistently applied. The CFS includes the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIE and the VIE’s subsidiary. All inter-company balances and transactions were eliminated upon consolidation. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying CFS include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented.

(b)

Accounts receivable, net

Accounts receivable, net are stated at the original amount less an allowance for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at period end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The Company analyses the aging of the customer accounts, coverage of credit insurance, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, historical and current economic trends and changes in its customer payment patterns when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $113,387 and $300,266, respectively, against its accounts receivable.

(c)

Intangible assets, net

The Company performs valuation of the intangible assets arising from business combinations to determine the relative fair value (“FV”) to be assigned to each asset acquired. The acquired intangible assets are recognized and measured at FV. Intangible assets with useful lives are amortized using the straight-line approach over the estimated economic useful lives of the assets as follows:

Category		Estimated useful life
Patents		5 years
Software copyright		5 years

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(d)

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over FV of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination.

Goodwill is not depreciated or amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of September 30 of each balance sheet date and in between annual tests when an event occurs or circumstances change that could indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company first has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the FV of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

If the Company decides, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the FV of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is mandatory. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The quantitative impairment test consists of a comparison of the FV of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. A goodwill impairment charge will be recorded for the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its FV, but not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Application of a goodwill impairment test requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units and determining the FV of each reporting unit. The judgment in estimating the FV of reporting units includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of FV for each reporting unit.

(e)

Long-term investments

Long-term investments are the Company’s equity investments in privately held companies accounted for equity method, and equity investments without readily determinable fair values.

(1) Equity investments accounted for using the equity method

The Company applies the equity method of accounting to equity investments, in ordinary shares or in-substance ordinary shares, over which it has significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control. Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost. The Company subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of each equity investee’s net income or loss into consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss after the date of acquisition.

(2) Equity investment without readily determinable fair values

Equity investment without readily determinable FVs refers to the investment over which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence through the investments in ordinary shares or in substance ordinary shares, are accounted for under the measurement alternative upon the adoption of ASU2016-01 (the “Measurement Alternative”). Under the Measurement Alternative, the carrying value is measured at purchase cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. All gains and losses on these investments, realized and unrealized, are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company makes an assessment of whether an investment is impaired based on performance and financial position of the investee, as well as other evidence of market value at each reporting date. Such assessment includes, but is not limited to, reviewing the investee’s cash position, recent financing, as well as the financial and business performance. The Company recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and FV in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss if any.

(f)

Revenue recognition

The Company follows ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”), to account for the revenue from sales of self-manufactured battery cell, battery pack and e-bicycles and battery cell trading. The Company applied ASC Topic 840, Leases, for the revenue from rentals of lithium batteries and e-bicycles.

The core principle of ASC Topic 606 is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customers

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation

Revenue recognition policies are discussed as follows:

Revenue from sales of self-manufactured battery cell, battery pack and e-bicycles

The Company sells products to different customers, primarily including sale of self-manufactured battery cells (see Note 16 Discontinued Operation), self-assembled battery packs and sale of e-bicycles. The Company presents the revenue generated from its sales of products on a gross basis as the Company is a principal. The revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring promised product to a customer upon acceptance by customers.

Contract liabilities primarily consist of advances from customers, which comprises unamortized lithium batteries. As of September 30, 2022 (audited) and March 31, 2023, the Company recognized advances from customers of $900,436 and $2,006,695, respectively.

The revenues from sales of self-manufactured battery cells and lithium batteries and e-bicycles services via sublease and its own application named Yidianxing are revenues from the Company’s discontinued operation, and are reported separately in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023 (see Note 16 Discontinued Operation). The following table identifies the disaggregation of the Company’s revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023:

	2022		2023
Revenues from continuing operations:
Sales of e-bicycles	$	4,055,330	$	3,001,709
Sales of batteries and battery packs		1,581,023		1,732,871
Others		393,825		427,118
Net revenues	$	6,030,178	$	5,161,698

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(f)

Revenue recognition (continued)

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable represent revenue recognized for the amounts invoiced and/or prior to invoicing when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and has unconditional right to the payment. The Company had no contract assets as of September 30, 2022 (audited) or March 31, 2023.

The Company applies a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. The Company has no material incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers that the Company expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year.

(g)

Share-based compensation

The Company applies ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), to account for its share-based payments. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company determines whether an award should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or equity award. All the Company’s grants of share-based awards were classified as equity awards and are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values.

The Company elects to recognize compensation expense using the straight-line method for all awards granted with graded vesting based on service conditions. The Company has also elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. Previously recognized compensation cost for the awards is reversed in the period that the award is forfeited.

(h)

Recent Accounting Standards

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases with the main difference being that operating leases are to be recorded in the statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. For operating leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. In July 2018, ASU 2016-02 was updated with ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to ASC Topic 842, which provides entities with relief from the costs of implementing certain aspects of the new leasing standard. Specifically, under the amendments in ASU 2018-11, (1) entities may elect not to recast the comparative periods presented when transitioning to ASC 842 and (2) lessors may elect not to separate lease and non-lease components when certain conditions are met. In November 2019, ASU 2019-10, Codification Improvements to ASC 842 modified the effective dates of all other entities. In June 2020, ASU 2020-05 defers the effective date for one year for entities in the “all other” category. For all other entities, the amendments in ASU 2020-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early application of the guidance continues to be permitted. Based on the portfolio of leases as of March 31, 2023, a right-of-use asset of $171,993 and a lease liability of $170,682 would be recognized on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet for the fiscal year beginning upon October 1, 2022, primarily relating to the rental of office space, production space and storage space. The Company does not expect any material impact on its CFS as a result of adopting the new standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” which requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. Further, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11 and ASU 2020-02 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. For all other entities, the amendments for ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the ASUs is on a modified retrospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 on October 1, 2023. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect of the adoption of this ASU on its CFS.

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 consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent standards that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its unaudited consolidated financial statements.

3.	ACQUISITION

Acquisition of Changzhou Sixun

On January 25, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Changzhou Sixun through an equity transfer agreement with certain “non-U.S. persons” (the “Sellers”) as defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the transfer of 100% of the equity interests in and all assets in Changzhou Sixun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Changzhou Sixun”) to Jiangsu New Energy, for RMB59,400,000, of which (i) RMB5,000,000 was to be paid in cash and (ii) the remaining consideration of RMB54,400,000 ($8,080,448) which is to be paid by issuing additional ordinary shares of the Company. In this acquisition, Changzhou Sixun was set as a target company for the purpose of holding 60% of the equity of Changzhou Higgs Intelligent Technologies Co., Ltd. (“Changzhou Higgs”).

The Company engaged an independent valuation firm to assist management in valuing assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets identified as of the acquisition day.

The transaction constitutes a business combination for accounting purposes and is accounted for using the acquisition method under ASC 805. The Company is deemed to be the accounting acquirer. The identifiable intangible assets acquired upon acquisition was patents and software copyright, which has an estimated useful life of five years. All other current assets and current liabilities carrying value approximated fair value at the time of acquisition. The fair value of the intangible assets identified was determined by adopting the income approach, specifically the Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) method.

The allocation of the purchase price as of the acquisition date was as follows, in which the amount was translated using exchange rate on acquisition date:

	Amount
Cash and cash equivalents	$	141,891
Accounts receivable		76,372
Notes receivable		44,183
Advance to suppliers		154,230
Prepaid expenses and other current assets, net		1,726
Inventories, net		434,110
Fixed assets		48,754
Intangible assets - patents		2,529,954
Intangible assets – software copyright		659,988
Total assets (a)		4,091,208

Advances from customers		22,647
Accounts payable		30,361
Accrued expenses and other payables		164,012
Total liabilities (b)		217,020

Total net identifiable asset acquired (c=a-b)		3,874,188
Non-controlling interest on Changzhou Higgs (d)		273,698
Total consideration (e)		8,690,046
Goodwill (e+d-c)		5,089,556

Prior to the acquisition, Changzhou Sixun did not prepare its financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company determined that the cost of reconstructing the financial statement of Changzhou Sixun for the periods prior to the acquisition outweighed the benefits. Based on an assessment of the financial performance and a comparison of Changzhou Sixun’s and the Company’s financial performance for the fiscal year prior to the acquisition, the Company did not consider Changzhou Sixun to be material to the Company based on the significance testing. Thus, the Company’s management believes that the presentation of pro forma financial information with respect to the results of operations of the Company for the business combination is impractical.

DISCONTINUED OPERATION

In November 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party company to dispose its battery cell production line. The production line was disposed in December 2018. After the disposal, the Company is no longer engaged in the manufacturing of battery cells. The disposal of the production line was treated as a discontinued operation for all fiscal years presented.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, the revenue of rental business decreased after December 2019, which led to the termination of the cooperation with its sublease agents from January 2020 to July 2020. Therefore, management decided to dispose majority of its rental assets, mainly batteries and E-bicycle, before September 30, 2021. The disposal of the Company’s rental business was also treated as a discontinued operation for all fiscal years presented.

The liabilities of the discontinued operations, which are included in “Current liabilities of discontinued operation” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2023, consist of the following:

INCOME TAXES

BVI

The Company is incorporated in the BVI. Under the current laws of the BVI, the Company is not subject to income or capital gains taxes. In addition, dividend payments are not subject to withholdings tax in the BVI.

Hong Kong

On March 21, 2018, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed The Inland Revenue (Amendment) (No. 7) Bill 2017 (the “Bill”) which introduces the two-tiered profits tax rates regime. The Bill was signed into law on March 28, 2018 and was announced on the following day. Under the two-tiered profits tax rates regime, the first 2 million Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) of profits of the qualifying group entity will be taxed at 8.25%, and profits above HKD 2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. The Company’s Hong Kong subsidiaries did not have assessable profits that were derived in Hong Kong for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023. Therefore, no Hong Kong profit tax had been provided for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.

PRC

The Company’s PRC subsidiaries, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries are subject to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT Law”) and are taxed at the statutory income tax rate of 25%, unless otherwise specified. The components of the income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations are as follows:

INCOME TAXES (continued)

The current PRC EIT Law imposes a 10% withholding income tax for dividends distributed by foreign invested enterprises to their immediate holding companies outside the PRC. A lower withholding tax rate will be applied if there is a tax treaty arrangement between the PRC and the jurisdiction of the foreign holding company. Distributions to holding companies in Hong Kong that satisfy certain requirements specified by the PRC tax authorities, for example, are subject to a 5% withholding tax rate.

As of September 30, 2022 (audited) and March 31, 2023, the Company had not recorded any withholding tax on the retained earnings of its foreign invested enterprises in the PRC, since the Company intended to reinvest its earnings to further expand its business in mainland China, and its foreign invested enterprises did not intend to declare dividends to their immediate foreign holding companies.

For the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, the effect of income tax rate differences in jurisdictions other than the PRC mainly resulted from the loss in EZGO, which is incorporated in BVI and is not subject to income or capital gains taxes. The effective tax rates are -25.4% and 0.8% for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023 respectively.

Accounting for uncertainty tax position

The Company did not identify significant unrecognized tax benefits for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023. The Company did not incur any interest or penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses. In general, the PRC tax authority has up to five years to conduct examinations of the Company’s tax filings. Accordingly, the tax years from 2017 to 2022 of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and VIE and subsidiaries of the VIE remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions. The Company does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company determined that it operates in two segments: (1) battery cells and packs segment, and (2) e-bicycle sales segment. The battery cells and packs segment engages in selling battery packs and trading battery cells. The e-bicycle sales segment sells e-bicycles on various ecommerce platforms to individual customers.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is its chief executive officer, measures the performance of each segment based on metrics of revenue and profit before taxes from operations and uses these results to evaluate the performance of, and to allocate resources to each of the segments. As most of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the PRC and most of the Company’s revenues are derived from the PRC, no geographical information is presented. The Company does not allocate assets to its segments as the CODM does not evaluate the performance of segments using asset information.
