NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principle of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Green New Jersey, Jinong, Gufeng, Tianjuyuan, Yuxing and Antaeus.
All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
For purposes of comparability, certain prior period
amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Effective June 16, 2013, Yuxing was converted
from being a wholly owned foreign enterprise 100% owned by Jinong to a domestic enterprise 100% owned one natural person, who is not affiliated
to the Company (“Yuxing’s Owner”). Effective the same day, Yuxing’s Owner entered into a series of contractual
agreements with Jinong pursuant to which Yuxing became the VIE of Jinong.
VIE assessment
A VIE is an entity (1) that has total equity at
risk that is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other entities, (2) where
the group of equity holders does not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s
economic performance, or the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses or the right to receive the entity’s expected
residual returns, or both, or (3) where the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected
losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both, and substantially all of the entity’s
activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. In order to determine
if an entity is considered a VIE, the Company first performs a qualitative analysis, which requires certain subjective decisions regarding
its assessments, including, but not limited to, the design of the entity, the variability that the entity was designed to create and pass
along to its interest holders, the rights of the parties, and the purpose of the arrangement. If the Company cannot conclude after a qualitative
analysis whether an entity is a VIE, it performs a quantitative analysis. The qualitative analysis considered the design of the entity,
the risks that cause variability, the purpose for which the entity was created, and the variability that the entity was designed to pass
along to its variable interest holders. When the primary beneficiary could not be identified through a qualitative analysis, we used internal
cash flow models to compute and allocate expected losses or expected residual returns to each variable interest holder based upon the
relative contractual rights and preferences of each interest holder in the VIE’s capital structure.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these
estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results and outcomes may differ from
management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a
lease or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement based
on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit rate is typically not readily determinable in the Company’s
lease agreements, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as of the lease commencement date to determine the present value of
the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is based on the Company’s specific rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized
basis, over a similar term and in a similar economic environment as the lease. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease
expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, the Company accounts for lease and non-lease components
as a single lease component for its identified asset classes. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not have any material leases for
the implementation of ASC 842.
Cash and cash equivalents and concentration of cash
For statement of cash flows purposes, the Company
considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit with state owned banks in the PRC and banks in the United States, and
other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company
maintains large sums of cash in three major banks in China. The aggregate cash in such accounts and on hand as of December 31, 2023 and
June 30, 2023 were $67,909,293 and $69,091,838, respectively. There is no insurance securing these deposits in China. In addition,
the Company also had $2,493,443 and $2,050,350 in cash in three banks in the United States as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023,
respectively. Cash overdraft as of balance sheet date will be reflected as liabilities in the balance sheet. The Company has not experienced
any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.
Digital Assets
Digital assets are included
in current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Digital assets are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets,
and are initially measured in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350 – Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other. The Company measures gains or losses on the disposition of digital assets in accordance with the first-in-first-out (“FIFO”)
method of accounting.
Digital assets are not
amortized, but are assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that
it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. Whenever the exchange-traded price of digital assets
declines below its carrying value, the Company has determined that an impairment exists and records an impairment equal to the amount
by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
As of December
31, 2023, the Company held Bitcoin as digital assets with amount of $44,399 Bitcoin is classified on our balance sheet as a current asset
due to the Company’s ability to sell it in a highly liquid marketplace and its intent to liquidate its Bitcoin to support operations
when needed. As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined that there were no impairments of its digital assets.
Accounts receivable
Management regularly reviews the composition of
accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate
the adequacy of these reserves at each year-end. Accounts considered uncollectible are provisioned for /written off based upon management’s
assessment. As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, the Company had accounts receivable of $20,988,837 and $16,455,734, net of allowance
for doubtful accounts of $50,107,077 and $54,708,486, respectively. The company recorded bad debt expense in the amount of $2.7 and $1.7
for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company adopts no policy to accept product returns after the sales
delivery.
Inventories
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (determined
on a weighted average basis) or market. Inventories consist of raw materials, work in process, finished goods and packaging materials.
The Company reviews its inventories regularly for possible obsolete goods and establishes reserves when determined necessary. As of December
31, 2023, and 2022, the Company had no reserve for obsolete goods. The company confirmed the loss of $4.0 million and $1.7 million of
inventories for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Intangible Assets
The Company records intangible assets acquired
individually or as part of a group at fair value. Intangible assets with definitive lives are amortized over the useful life of the intangible
asset, which is the period over which the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the entity’s future cash flows.
The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment at least annually and more often whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount
by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The Company has not recorded impairment of intangible assets as of December 31, 2023
and 2022, respectively.
Customer deposits
Payments received before all the relevant criteria
for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as customer deposits. When all revenue recognition criteria are met, the customer deposits
are recognized as revenue. As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, the Company had customer deposits of $5,407,480 and $5,489,781,
respectively.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed based on
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the
weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using
the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and stock awards.
The components of basic and diluted earnings per share consist of the
following:

Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company has evaluated all recently issued
accounting pronouncements and does not believe any such pronouncements currently have, and does not expect such pronouncements to have,
a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements on a prospective basis.
NOTE 3 – GOING CERCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred operating losses and had negative operating cash
flows during the reporting period from July 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 and may continue to incur operating losses and generate
negative cash flows as the Company implements its future business plan. If the situation exists, there could be substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as going concern.
To meet its working capital needs through the
next twelve months and to fund the growth of the Company, the Company may consider plans to raise additional funds through the issuance
of equity or borrow loan from local bank. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully
execute its new business strategy and eventually attain profitable operations.
The accompanying financial statements do not include
any adjustments to reflect the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as going concern.

NOTE 11 – TAXES PAYABLE
Enterprise Income Tax
Effective January 1, 2008, the Enterprise Income
Tax (“EIT”) law of the PRC replaced the tax laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DEs”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises
(“FIEs”). The EIT rate of 25% replaced the 33% rate that was applicable to both DEs and FIEs. The two-year tax exemption and
three-year 50% tax reduction tax holiday for production-oriented FIEs was eliminated. Since January 1, 2008, Jinong became subject to
income tax in China at a rate of 15% as a high-tech company, because of the expiration of its tax exemption on December 31, 2007. Accordingly,
it made no provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Value-Added Tax
All the Company’s fertilizer products that
are produced and sold in the PRC were subject to a Chinese Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 9% of the gross sales price. On April 29, 2008, the

which allows certain fertilizer products to be exempt from VAT beginning June 1, 2008. The Company submitted the application for exemption
in May 2009, which was granted effective September 1, 2009, continuing through December 31, 2015. On August 10, 2015 and August 28, 2015,
the SAT released Notice #90. “Reinstatement of VAT for Fertilizer Products”, and Notice #97, “Supplementary
Reinstatement of VAT for Fertilizer Products”, which restore the VAT of 13% of the gross sales price on certain fertilizer products
includes non-organic fertilizer products starting from September 1, 2015, but granted taxpayers a reduced rate of 3% from September 1,
2015 through June 30, 2016.
On April 28, 2017, the PRC State of Administration
of Taxation (SAT) released Notice 2017 #37, “Notice on Policy of Reduced Value Added Tax Rate,” under which, effective
July 1, 2017, all the Company’s fertilizer products that are produced and sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese Value-Added Tax
(VAT) of 11% of the gross sales price. The tax rate was reduced 2% from 13%.
On April 4, 2018, the PRC State of Administration
of Taxation (SAT) released Notice 2018 #32, “Notice on Adjustment of VAT Tax Rate,” under which, effective May 1, 2018,
all the Company’s fertilizer products that are produced and sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 10%
of the gross sales price. The tax rate was reduced 1% from 11%.
On March 20, 2019, the PRC State of Administration
of Taxation (SAT) released Notice 2019 #39, “Announcement on Policies Concerning Deepening the Reform of Value Added Tax,”
under which, effective April 1, 2019, all the Company’s fertilizer products that are produced and sold in the PRC are subject to
a Chinese Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 9% of the gross sales price. The tax rate was reduced 1% from 10%.

NOTE 13 – CONCENTRATIONS AND LITIGATION
Market Concentration
The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating
operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced
by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy.
The Company’s operations in the PRC are
subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe.
These include risks associated with, among other things, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange.
The Company’s results may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and
regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.
Vendor and Customer Concentration
None of the vendors accounted over 10% of the Company’s purchase
of raw materials and supplies for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
No customer accounted for over 10% of the Company’s sales for
the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Litigation
On June 5, 2020, an individual filed suit pro
se (as in, representing oneself without an attorney) in the Southern District of Florida federal court alleging violations of the Securities
Exchange Act. The Company believes the action is without merit and vigorously opposed it. The company moved to dismiss the litigation
and for attorney’s fees from the plaintiff. On November 2, 2020, the case was transferred to the United States District Court for
The Southern District Of New York. On December 31, 2021, the Southern District of New York federal court presiding over the case dismissed
all claims against the company, its executives, and its independent directors. The dismissal was without prejudice and the plaintiff
can appeal or amend within 30 days, or by October 29, 2021. The plaintiff amended the complaint on Oct 30, 2021. On August 30, 2022, the
Southern District of New York federal court presiding over the case issued an order granting motions to dismiss all claims in the amended
complaint against the Company, its executives, and its independent directors. On September 6, 2022, the plaintiff filed a notice of civil
appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals, Second Circuit. The appeal has now been fully briefed and the Company expects a decision to issue
sometime in the coming year.
There are no other actions, suits, proceedings,
inquiries or investigations before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or,
to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our
common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such,
in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
NOTE 14 – SEGMENT REPORTING
As of December 31, 2023, the Company was organized
into four main business segments based on location and product: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Yuxing
(agricultural products production) and Antaeus (Bitcoin). Each of the four operating segments referenced above has separate and distinct
general ledgers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) receives financial information, including revenue, gross margin,
operating income and net income produced from the various general ledger systems to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing
performance; however, the principal measure of segment profitability or loss used by the CODM is net income by segment.

NOTE 16 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
In accordance with accounting standards regarding
consolidation of variable interest entities, VIEs are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without
additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision-making ability. All VIEs with which a company
is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required
to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.
Green Nevada through one of its subsidiaries,
Jinong, entered into a series of agreements (the “VIE Agreements”) with Yuxing for it to qualify as a VIE, effective June
16, 2013.
The Company has concluded, based on the contractual
arrangements, that Yuxing is a VIE and that the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Jinong, absorbs most of the risk of loss from
the activities of Yuxing, thereby enabling the Company, through Jinong, to receive a majority of Yuxing expected residual returns.
On June 30, 2016 and January 1, 2017, the Company,
through its wholly owned subsidiary Jinong, entered into strategic acquisition agreements and into a series of contractual agreements
to qualify as VIEs with the shareholders of the sales VIE Companies.
Jinong, the sales VIE Companies, and the shareholders
of the sales VIE Companies also entered into a series of contractual agreements for the sales VIE Companies to qualify as VIEs (the “VIE
Agreements”).
On November 30, 2017, the Company, through its
wholly owned subsidiary Jinong, exited the VIE agreements with the shareholders of Zhenbai.
On June 2, 2021, the Company, through its wholly
owned subsidiary Jinong, discontinued the strategic acquisition agreements and the series of contractual agreements with the shareholders
of Xindeguo, Xinyulei and Xiangrong.
On December 1, 2021, the Company, through its
wholly owned subsidiary Jinong, discontinued the strategic acquisition agreements and the series of contractual agreements with the shareholders
of Lishijie.
On December 31, 2021, the Company, through its
wholly owned subsidiary Jinong, discontinued the strategic acquisition agreements and the series of contractual agreements with the shareholders
of Fengnong.
On March 31, 2022, the Company, through its wholly
owned subsidiary Jinong, discontinued the strategic acquisition agreements and the series of contractual agreements with the shareholders
of Jinyangguang and Wangtian.
As a result of these contractual arrangements,
with Yuxing and the sales VIE Companies the Company is entitled to substantially all the economic benefits of Yuxing and the VIE Companies.

its impact on economic growth in general, the competition in the fertilizer industry and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues
and margins, the weather conditions in the areas where our customers are based, the cost of attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel,
the prospects for future acquisitions, and the factors set forth elsewhere in this report, our actual results may differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. With these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking
statements contained in this report will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained

occurrence of unanticipated events. Further, the information about our intentions contained in this report is a statement of our
intention as of the date of this report and is based upon, among other things, the existing regulatory environment, industry conditions,
market conditions and prices, and our assumptions as of such date. We may change our intentions, at any time and without notice,
based upon any changes in such factors, in our assumptions or otherwise.

ended December 31, 2022. The increase of Yuxing’s general and administrative expenses was mainly due to the inventory impairment
with amount of $1.6 million caused by the bad weather in November 2023.
Antaeus’s general and administrative expenses
were $268,903 for the three months ended December 31, 2023.
Total Other Income (Expenses)
Total other income (expenses) consisted of income
from subsidies received from the PRC government, interest income, interest expenses and bank charges. Total other income for the six months
ended December 31, 2023 was $5,539, as compared to $92,639 for the six months ended December 31, 2022, a decrease in income of $87,100
or 94%. The difference was mainly due to the decrease in other income with amount of $69,152, or 62.9% from $109,861 for the six months
ended December 31, 2022 to $40,709 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. There was $110,389 in subsidy income for the six months
ended December 31, 2022, compared to $796 subsidy income for the six months ended December 31, 2023.
Income Taxes
Jinong is subject to a preferred tax rate of 15%
as a result of its business being classified as a High-Tech project under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT”) that became
effective on January 1, 2008. Jinong didn’t incurr income tax expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Gufeng is subject to a tax rate of 25%, has no
income tax expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Yuxing has no income tax for the six months ended
December 31, 2023 and 2022 as a result of being exempted from paying income tax due to its products fall into the tax exemption list set
out in the EIT.
Antaeus is subject to a tax rate of 21% and had
income tax expense of $(16,355) for the six months ended December 31, 2023.
Net loss
Net loss for the six months ended December 31,
2023 was $(7,154,196), an increase of loss with amount of $3,029,536 or 73.4%, compared to $(4,124,660) for the six months ended December
31, 2022. The increase was mainly due to lower net sales and higher general and administrative expenses. Net loss as a percentage of total
net sales was approximately -17.8% and -7.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Discussion of Segment Profitability Measures
As of December 31, 2023, we were engaged in the
following businesses: the production and sale of fertilizers through Jinong and Gufeng, the production and sale of high-quality agricultural
products by Yuxing and the production and sale of Bitcoin by Antaeus. For financial reporting purpose, our operations were organized into
four main business segments based on locations and products: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Yuxing (agricultural
products production) and Antaeus (Bitcoin). Each of the segments has its own annual budget about development, production and sales.
Each of the four operating segments referenced
above has separate and distinct general ledgers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) makes decisions with respect
to resources allocation and performance assessment upon receiving financial information, including revenue, gross margin, operating income
and net income produced from the various general ledger systems; however, net income by segment is the principal benchmark to measure
profit or loss adopted by the CODM.
For Jinong, the net loss decreased by $140,042,
or 24.6%, to $(430,386) for the six months ended December 31, 2023, from $(570,428) for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease
in net loss was principally due to lower general and administrative expenses.
For Gufeng, the net loss increased by $842,960
or 36.1%, to $(3,179,583) for the six months ended December 31, 2023, from $(2,336,623) for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The
increase in net loss was principally due to the lower net sales and the increase in general and administrative expenses.
For Yuxing, the net income decreased $1,638,196
or 331.5%, to $(1,144,020) for the six months ended December 31, 2023 from $494,176 for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease
was mainly due to lower net sales and the higher general and administrative expenses.
For Antaeus, the net loss was $(61,526) for the
six months ended December 31, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity include cash
from operations, borrowings from local commercial banks and net proceeds of offerings of our securities.
As of December 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents
were $70,402,736, a decrease of $739,452, or 1.0%, from $71,142,188 as of June 30, 2023.
We intend to use the net proceeds from our securities
offerings, as well as other working capital if required, to acquire new businesses, upgrade production lines and complete Yuxing’s
new greenhouse facilities for agriculture products located on 88 acres of land in Hu County, 18 kilometers southeast of Xi’an city.
We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand and positive projected cash flow from operations to support our business growth for the
next twelve months to the extent we do not have further significant acquisitions or expansions. However, if events or circumstances occur
and we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to seek additional capital and/or to reduce certain discretionary
spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
we may seek additional financing as necessary for expansion purposes and when we believe market conditions are most advantageous, which
may include additional debt and/or equity financings. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable
terms, if at all. Any equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and any debt financing may include restrictive
covenants.
The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the
periods indicated:

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $(2,066,674) for the six
months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $737,173, or 26.3%, from cash used in operating activities of $(2,803,847) for the six months
ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was mainly due to an increase in accrued expenses and other
payables during the six months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities for the
six months ended December 31, 2023 was $(1,607,163), compared to cash provided by investing activities of $589,722 for the six months
ended December 31, 2022. The difference of $2,196,885 was mainly due to purchase of plant, property, and equipment with amount of $1,607,163
during the six months ended December 31, 2023, comparing with $305,689 during the six months ended December 31, 2022.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the
six months ended December 31, 2023 was $1,382,404, a decrease of $18,490,041, or 93.0% compared to $19,872,445 net cash provided by financing
activities for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was mainly due to the repayment of loans with amount of $1,579,303
during the six months ended December 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, our loans payable was as

Accounts Receivable
We had accounts receivable of $20,988,837 as of
December 31, 2023, as compared to $16,455,734 as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $4,533,103, or 27.5%.
Allowance for doubtful accounts in accounts receivable
as of December 31, 2023 was $50,107,077, a decrease of $4,601,409, or 8.4%, from $54,708,486 as of June 30, 2023. And the allowance for
doubtful accounts as a percentage of accounts receivable was 70.5% as of December 31, 2023 and 76.9% as of June 30, 2023.
Deferred assets
We had deferred tax assets of $114,175 as of December
31, 2023, and $97,820 of June 30, 2023. During the six months, we assisted the distributors in certain marketing efforts and developing
standard stores to expand our competitive advantage and market shares. Based on the distributor agreements, the amount owed by the distributors
in certain marketing efforts and store development will be expensed over three years if the distributors are actively selling our products.
If a distributor defaults, breaches, or terminates the agreement with us earlier than the contractual terms, the unamortized portion of
the amount owed by the distributor is payable to us immediately.
Inventories
We had inventories of $39,554,487 as of December
31, 2023, as compared to $46,455,131 as of June 30, 2023, a decrease of $6,900,644, or 14.9%. The decrease was primarily due to Gufeng’s
inventory. As of December 31, 2023, Gufeng’s inventory was $14,948,439, compared to $21,691,450 as of June 30, 2023, a decrease
of $6,743,011, or 31.1%. The company confirmed the loss of $4.0 million and $1.7 million of inventories for the six months ended December
31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Advances to Suppliers
We had advances to suppliers of $16,966,359 as
of December 31, 2023 as compared to $14,332,715 as of June 30, 2023, representing an increase of $2,633,644, or 18.4%. Our inventory level
may fluctuate from time to time, depending how quickly the raw material is consumed and replenished during the production process, and
how soon the finished goods are sold. The replenishment of raw material relies on management’s estimate of numerous factors,
including but not limited to, the raw materials future price, and spot price along with its volatility, as well as the seasonal demand
and future price of finished fertilizer products. Such estimate may not be accurate, and the purchase decision of raw materials based
on the estimate can cause excessive inventories in times of slow sales and insufficient inventories in peak times.
Accounts Payable
We had accounts payable of $1,583,655 as of December
31, 2023 as compared to $2,100,449 as of June 30, 2023, representing a decrease of $516,794, or 24.6%.
Customer Deposits (Unearned Revenue)
We had customer deposits of $5,407,480 as of December
31, 2023 as compared to $5,489,781 as of June 30, 2023, representing a decrease of $82,301, or 1.5%. The increase was mainly attributable
to Jinong’ $1,243,289 unearned revenue as of December 31, 2023, compared to $1,152,204 unearned revenue as of June 30, 2023, increased
$91,085, or 7.9%, caused by the advance deposits made by clients. This increase was due to seasonal fluctuation and we expect to deliver
products to our customers during the next three months at which time we will recognize the revenue.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of
its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting
policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, “Basis
of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” We believe that the following paragraphs reflect the most critical
accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations:
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these
estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results and outcomes may differ from
management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties.
Revenue recognition
Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment
to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, we have no other significant
obligations and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied
are recorded as unearned revenue.
Our revenue consists of invoiced value of goods,
net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers
are normally not returnable and sales discounts are normally not granted after products are delivered.
Cash and cash equivalents
For statement of cash flows purposes, we consider
all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when
purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable
Our policy is to maintain reserves for potential
credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer
concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy
of these reserves. Any accounts receivable of Jinong and Gufeng that are outstanding for more than 180 days will be accounted as allowance
for bad debts, and any accounts receivable of Yuxing that are outstanding for more than 90 days will be accounted as allowance for bad
debts.
Deferred assets
Deferred assets represent amounts the Company
advanced to the distributors in their marketing and stores development to expand our competitive advantage and market shares. Based
on the distributor agreements, the amount owed by the distributors in certain marketing efforts and store development will be expensed
over three years if the distributors are actively selling our products. If a distributor defaults, breaches, or terminates the agreement
with us earlier than the realization of the contractual terms, the unamortized portion of the amount owed by the distributor is to be
refunded to us immediately. The deferred assets had been fully amortized as of December 31, 2023.
Segment reporting
FASB ASC 280 requires use of the “management
approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes
segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services,
geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other way management disaggregates a company.
As of December 31, 2023, we were organized into
four main business units: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Yuxing (agricultural products production)
and Antaeus(Bitcoin). For financial reporting purpose, our operations were organized into four main business segments based on locations
and products: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Yuxing (agricultural products production) and Antaeus(Bitcoin).
Each of the segments has its own annual budget regarding development, production, and sales.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Disclosures About Market Risk
We may be exposed to changes in financial market
conditions in the normal course of business. Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur because of movements in interest
rates and equity prices. We currently do not, in the normal course of business, use financial instruments that are subject to changes
in financial market conditions.
Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk
Substantially all our revenues and expenses are
denominated in RMB. However, we use the U.S. dollar for financial reporting purposes. Conversion of RMB into foreign currencies is regulated
by the People’s Bank of China through a unified floating exchange rate system. Although the PRC government has stated its intention
to support the value of RMB, there can be no assurance that such exchange rate will not again become volatile or that RMB will not devalue
significantly against U.S. dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect the value, in U.S. dollar terms, of our net assets
and income derived from our operations in the PRC.
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Except for U.S. holding
companies, all our consolidated revenues, consolidated costs and expenses, and our assets are denominated in RMB. As a result, we are
exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between
the U.S. dollars and RMB. If RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed
in our U.S. dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of the balance sheet
dates, revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates, and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical
exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income (loss) but are included in determining
other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity. As of December 31, 2023, our accumulated other comprehensive loss
was $23 million. We have not entered any hedging transactions to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk. The value of the RMB against
the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in PRC’s political and economic conditions. Between
July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023, China’s currency increased by a cumulative 2.5% against the U.S. dollar, making Chinese exports
more expensive and imports into China cheaper by that percentage. The effect on trade can be substantial. Moreover, it is possible that
in the future, the PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign
exchange market.
Interest Rate Risk
We deposit surplus funds with Chinese banks earning
daily interest. We do not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. All our outstanding debt instruments carry fixed rates of interest.
The amount of short-term debt outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023 was $7.7 million and $5.3 million, respectively. We
are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans. Although the interest rates, which are based on
the banks’ prime rates with respect to our short-term loans, are fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically three
to twelve months for short-term bank loans and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal. There was no material change in interest
rates for short-term bank loans renewed during the three months ended December 31, 2023. The original loan term on average is one year,
and the remaining average life of the short term-loans is approximately six months.
Management monitors the banks’ prime rates
in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have
not entered any hedging transactions to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.
Credit Risk
We have experienced higher credit risk than usual
since 2020. With the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, the overdue outstanding accounts receivable increased significantly compared with the
years prior to the pandemic. Our accounts receivables are typically unsecured and are mainly derived from revenues earned from customers
in the PRC. Most of our customers are individuals and small and medium-sized enterprises (“SMEs”), which may not have strong
cash flows or be well capitalized. They may be vulnerable to an epidemic outbreak and slowing macroeconomic conditions. Many of the SMEs
that we work with cannot weather COVID-19 and the resulting economic impact, or they cannot resume business as usual after a prolonged
outbreak. Numerous distributors encountered significant difficulties and/or hardships in their businesses amid the pandemic. Even through
our receivables are monitored regularly by our credit managers, the bad debts expenses are higher in recent 3 years comparing with the
years before 2020.
Inflation Risk
Inflationary factors such as increases in the
cost of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Notwithstanding the measures taken by the PRC government
to control inflation, China still experienced an increase in inflation and our operating cost became higher than anticipated. The
high rate of inflation had an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.
Risk of epidemics, pandemics, or other outbreaks
The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely affected,
and in the future it or other epidemics, pandemics or outbreaks may adversely affect, our operations. This is or may be due to closures
or restrictions requested or mandated by governmental authorities, disruption to supply chains and workforce, reduction of demand for
our products and services, and credit losses when customers and other counterparties fail to satisfy their obligations to us. We share
most of these risks with all businesses.
In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak has significantly
increased economic and demand uncertainty. The current outbreak and continued spread of COVID-19 may cause a global recession, which would
have a further adverse impact on our financial condition and operations, and this impact could exist for an extensive period.
The Company is continuing to monitor the situation
and take appropriate actions in accordance with the recommendations and requirements of relevant authorities. The full extent of the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operational and financial performance is currently uncertain and will depend on many factors
outside the Company’s control, including, without limitation, the timing, extent, trajectory and duration of the pandemic, the development
and availability of effective treatments and vaccines, the imposition of protective public safety measures, and the impact of the pandemic
on the global economy and demand for consumer products.
Additional future impacts on the Company may include,
but are not limited to, material adverse effects on demand for the Company’s products and services; the Company’s supply chain
and sales and distribution channels; the Company’s ability to execute its strategic plans; and the Company’s profitability
and cost structure. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s business, results of operations, financial
condition and stock price, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described above.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), at the conclusion of the period ended December 31, 2022 we carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms and that
such information was accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allowed
for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal controls
There were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15
that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
