Overview
Our
Business
We
are a garment manufacturer and logistic service provider based in China. We are listed on the OTCQB under the symbol of “ATXG”.
We classify our businesses into four segments:
Garment manufacturing, logistics services, property management and subleasing, and epidemic prevention supplies segments. For the fiscal
year ended 2020 and in previous fiscal years: (i) garment manufacturing and (ii) logistics services. During the fiscal year 2021, we
developed two new business segments: property management and subleasing, and epidemic prevention supplies.
Our
garment manufacturing business consists of sales made principally to wholesaler located in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).
We have our own manufacturing facilities, with sufficient production capacity and skilled workers on production lines to ensure that
we meet our high quality control standards and timely delivery requirement for our customers. We conduct our garment manufacturing operations
through four wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Dongguan Heng Sheng Wei Garments Co., Ltd (“HSW”), Shantou Chenghai Dai Tou
Garments Co., Ltd (“DT”), Dongguan Yushang Clothing Co., Ltd (“YS”), and Shantou Yi Bai Yi Garments Co., Ltd
(“YBY”) which are located in the Guangdong province, China. In October, the Company disposed of DT to a third party at fair
value, which was also its carrying value as of September 30, 2020.
Our
logistics business consists of delivery and courier services covering approximately seven provinces in China. Although we have our own
motor vehicles and drivers, we currently outsource some of the business to our contractors. We believe outsourcing allows us to maximize
our capacity and maintain flexibility while reducing capital expenditures and the costs of keeping drivers during slow seasons. We conduct
our logistic operations through three wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Shenzhen Xin Kuai Jie Transportation Co., Ltd (“XKJ”),Shenzhen
Hua Peng Fa Logistic Co., Ltd (“HPF”), and Shenzhen Yingxi Peng Fa Logistic Co., Ltd (“PF”) which are located
in the Guangdong province, China. In November, the Company disposed of HPF to a third party at
fair value, which was also its carrying value as of November 30, 2020.
The
business operations, customers and suppliers of DT and HPF were retained by the Company; therefore, the disposition of the two subsidiaries
did not qualify as discontinued operations.
Our
property management and subleasing business provides shops subleasing and property management services for garment wholesalers and retailers
in garment market. We conduct our property management and subleasing operation through a wholly owned subsidiary, namely Dongguan Yingxi
Daying Commercial Co., Ltd (“DY”).
Our
epidemic prevention supplies business consists of manufacturing and distribution of epidemic prevention products and reselling of epidemic
prevention supplies purchased from third parties in both domestic and overseas markets. We conduct our manufacturing of the epidemic
prevention products in YS. We conduct the trading of epidemic prevention suppliers through Addentax Group Corp. (“ATXG”)
and Shenzhen Qianhai Yingxi Industrial Chain Services Co., Ltd (“YX”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Business
Objectives
Garment
Manufacturing Business
We
believe the strength of our garment manufacturing business is mainly due to our consistent emphasis on exceptional quality and timely
delivery. The primary business objective for our garment manufacturing segment is to expand our customer base and improve our profit.
Logistics
Services Business
The
business objective and future plan for our logistics services segment is to establish an efficient logistic system and to build a nationwide
delivery and courier network in China. As of March 31, 2021, we provide logistic service to over 79 cities in approximately seven provinces
and two municipalities. We expect to develop an additional 20 logistics points in existing serving cities and improve the Company’s
profit in the year of 2021.
Property
Management and Subleasing Business
The
business objective of our property management and subleasing segment is to integrate resources in shopping mall, develop e-commerce bases
and the Internet celebrity economy together to drive to increase the value of the stores in the area. The short-term goal for the year
is to increase the occupancy rate of stores in the mall to more than 70%.
Epidemic
Prevention Supplies Business
The
primary objective of our epidemic prevention supplies business is to take the advantage of our resource in supply chain from the garment
manufacturing business segment to facilitate and maximize the production, distribution and resale of epidemic prevention supplies, in
order to increase our revenue base and improve our net profit.
Seasonality
of Business
Our
business is affected by seasonal trends, with higher levels of garment sales in our second and third quarters and higher logistic service
revenue in our third and fourth quarters. These trends primarily result from the timing of seasonal garment manufacturing shipments and
holiday periods in the logistic segment.
Collection
Policy
Garment
manufacturing business
For
our new customers, we generally require orders placed to be backed by advances or deposits. For our long-term and established customers
with good payment track records, we generally provide payment terms between 30 to 180 days following the delivery of finished goods.
Logistics
Services business
For
logistics services, we generally receive payments from the customers between 30 to 90 days following the date of the registration of
our receipt of packages.
Property
management and subleasing business
For
property management and subleasing business, we generally collect rental and management fees of the following month each month in advance.
Epidemic
prevention supplies business
For
Epidemic prevention supplies business, we generally receive payment from the customers within 30 days following the delivery of finished
goods. We would also give our long-term customers with a 12 months long credit term policy to maintain a good business relationship.
Economic
Uncertainty
Our
business is dependent on consumer demand for our products and services. We believe that the significant uncertainty in the economy in
China has increased our clients’ sensitivity to the cost of our products and services. We have experienced continued pricing pressure.
If the economic environment becomes weak, the economic conditions could have a negative impact on our sales growth and operating margins,
cash position and collection of accounts receivable. Additionally, business credit and liquidity have tightened in China. Some of our
suppliers and customers may face credit issues and could experience cash flow problems and other financial hardships. These factors currently
have not had an impact on the timeliness of receivable collections from our customers. We cannot predict at this time how this situation
will develop and whether accounts receivable may need to be allowed for or written off in the coming quarters.
Despite
the various risks and uncertainties associated with the current economy in China, we believe our core strengths will continue to allow
us to execute our strategy for long-term sustainable growth in revenue, net income and operating cash flow.
Summary
of Critical Accounting Policies
We
have identified critical accounting policies that, as a result of judgments, uncertainties, uniqueness and complexities of the underlying
accounting standards and operation involved could result in material changes to our financial position or results of operations under
different conditions or using different assumptions.
23
Estimates
and Assumptions
We
regularly evaluate the accounting estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates
are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed
to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
is generated through sale of goods and delivery services. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or
services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods
or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising
from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive
in exchange for those goods and services. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount:
(i)
identification
of the promised goods and services in the contract;
(ii)
determination
of whether the promised goods and services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the
contract;
(iii)
measurement
of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;
(iv)
allocation
of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and
(v)
recognition
of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The
Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled
to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606
at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which
of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated
to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company’s
performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon delivery.
For
all reporting periods, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for all product and service revenue
contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, which is an optional exemption that is permitted under the adopted rules.
Leases
Lessee
The
Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in
property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
ROU
assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present
value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, The Company generally use the incremental
borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement
date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Lessor
As
a lessor, the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases under ASC 842. Leases, in which the Company is the lessor, are
substantially all accounted for as operating leases and the lease components and non-lease components are accounted for separately. Rental
income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred
in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
24
Recently
issued and adopted accounting pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on
Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be
presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the
amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial
asset. This standard will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption
of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
The
Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any other new standards that it believes will have
a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue
Total
revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021 significantly increased by approximately $14.5 million, or approximately 143.2%, as compared
with the year ended March 31, 2020. The significant increase was mainly due to the increase of garment manufacturing production capacity
in YBY, a newly setup subsidiary in 2020, and the epidemic prevention supplies business newly developed in 2020.
Revenue
generated from our garment manufacturing business contributed approximately $6.9 million, or approximately 27.9%, of our total revenue
for the year ended March 31, 2021. Revenue generated from the segment contributed approximately $4.3 million, or approximately 42.3%,
of our total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase of approximately $2.6 million was mainly due to an increase of $5.4
million in YBY’s revenue, offset by the decrease of approximately $0.6 million and $2.2 million in HSW’s and DT’s revenue,
respectively.
Revenue
generated from our logistics services business contributed approximately $4.6 million, or approximately 18.5%, of our total revenue for
the year ended March 31, 2021. Revenue generated from the segment contributed approximately $5.9 million, or approximately 57.7%, of
our total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2020. The decrease of approximately $1.3 million was mainly due to COVID-19, as we cannot
complete timely logistics services deliveries.
Revenue
generated from our property management and subleasing business contributed approximately $1.3 million, or approximately 5.2%, of our
total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021. This is a new business segment developed in 2020.
Revenue
generated from our epidemic prevention supplies business contributed approximately $12.0 million, or approximately 48.4%, of our total
revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021. This is a new business developed in the 2020. It included revenue from trading of merchandise
and revenue from sales of our own products. The revenue from trading of merchandise was approximately $11.7 million, representing approximately
97.5% of total revenue from the epidemic prevention supplies business.

For
our garment manufacturing business, we purchased the majority of our raw materials directly from numerous local fabric and accessories
suppliers. Aggregate purchases from our five largest raw material suppliers represented approximately 98.7% and 92.7% of raw materials
purchases for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Two and one suppliers provided more than 10% of our raw materials
purchases for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We have not experienced difficulty in obtaining raw materials essential
to our business, and we believe we maintain good relationships with our suppliers.
Raw
materials cost for our garment manufacturing business was approximately 70.9% of our total garment manufacturing business revenue in
the year ended March 31, 2021, as compared with approximately 72.8% in the year ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in raw materials cost
for our garment manufacturing business was mainly due to the purchase cost of the raw materials remained consistent, offset by the continued
rising labor costs in the PRC.
Labor
costs for our garment manufacturing business was approximately 20.1% of our total garment manufacturing business revenue in the year
ended March 31, 2021, as compared with 16.4% in the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase in labor costs for our garment manufacturing
business was mainly due to the continued rising labor costs in the PRC.
Overhead
and other expenses for our garment manufacturing business accounted for approximately 0.9% of our total garment manufacturing business
revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021, as compared with 1.6% of total garment manufacturing business revenue for the year ended March
31, 2020.
26
For
our logistic business, we outsource some of the business to our subcontractors. Our subcontractors are contract logistic service provides.
The Company relied on a few subcontractors, which the subcontracting fees to our largest contractor represented approximately 7.6% and
25.6% of total cost of revenues for our service segment for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in subcontracting
fee was mainly due to less usage of subcontractors during the COVID-19 epidemic circumstance. We have not experienced any disputes with
our subcontractors and we believe we maintain good relationships with our contract logistic service provider.
Fuel,
toll and other costs for our logistics business for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $1.8 million, as compared with $1.9
million for the year ended March 31, 2020. Fuel, toll and other costs for our logistics business accounted for approximately 38.5% of
our total service revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021, as compared with approximately 32.9% for the year ended March 31, 2020.
The decrease in fuel, toll and other costs was primarily attributable to the decreased usage of subcontractors during the COVID-19 epidemic
circumstance.
Subcontracting
fees for our logistics business for the year ended March 31, 2021 decreased to approximately $1.8 million from $2.9 million for the year
ended March 31, 2020, representing a decrease of approximately 38.7%. Subcontracting fees accounted for 39.7% and 50.3% of our total
logistics business revenue in the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in subcontracting fees was primarily
because we used less subcontractors during the COVID-19 epidemic circumstance.
For
property management and subleasing business, the cost of revenue was mainly the amortization of operating lease assets for the subleasing
business.
27
For
epidemic prevention supplies business, we have sales of our own branded products as well as purchases and resale of goods of other brands.
The cost of revenue included cost of merchandise and cost of our own products. The cost of merchandise was approximately $14.7 million,
representing approximately 98.6% of our total cost of revenue of the epidemic prevention supplies business.
Gross
profit
Gross
profit of garment manufacturing business for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $0.6 million, as compared
with approximately $0.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. Gross profit ratio was approximately 8.1% of revenue of the
segment, as compared with approximately 9.2% for the year ended March 31, 2020. The decrease of gross margin was due to an
increase of raw materials costs and labor costs.
Gross
profit of our logistics services business for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $1.0 million and gross profit ratio

$ 1,555,984
Net
cash used in operating activities in the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $3.1 million more than that of the year ended
March 31, 2020. It was mainly because the net loss of fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $2.6 million more than
the net loss of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. The movement of operating assets and liabilities of the year ended March 31, 2021
resulted in negative cash flow of approximately $0.8 million, while the movement of operating assets and liabilities of the year
ended March 31, 2020 resulted in negative cash flow of approximately $0.3 million. We shall try to improve our operating cash
flow by closely monitoring the timely collection of accounts and other receivables. We generally do not hold any significant inventory
for more than ninety days, as we typically manufacture upon customers’ order.
Net
cash used in investing activities for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $0.4 million more than that of the year
ended March 31, 2020. It was mainly because the purchase of plant and equipment in the year ended March 31, 2021, which mainly motor
truckers, was approximately $0.3 million more than the purchase of plant and equipment in prior year. The Company had a cash decrease
of approximately $0.7 million in disposal of one subsidiary in garment manufacturing segment and one subsidiary in logistics services
segment. The Company also had proceeds of approximately $0.5 million from the disposal of the two subsidiaries.
Net
cash provided by financing activities for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $4.5 million more than the year ended
March 31, 2020. It was mainly because the Company had net cash decrease of approximately $2.5 million to related parties’
borrowings, net cash decrease of approximately $0.3 million attributable to bank borrowings and a proceeds of approximately
$6.7 million from issue of ordinary shares.
Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
As
of March 31, 2021, we had cash on hand of approximately $1.8 million, total current assets of approximately $8.0 million
and current liabilities of approximately $12.4 million. We presently finance our operations primarily from cash flows from borrowings
from related parties and third parties. We also raised equity fund of approximately $3.74 million and approximately $3.0
million from the issuance of common stocks in August 2020 and March 2021, respectively. We aim to improve our operating cash flows and
anticipate that cash flows from our operations and borrowings from related parties and third parties will continue to be our primary
source of funds to finance our short-term cash needs. The Company’s financial conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s profit generating
operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal
business operations when they become due. The Company expects to finance operations primarily through cash flow from revenue and capital
contributions from the CEO. During the year, the CEO has provided financial support for the operations of the Company. In the event that
the Company requires additional funding to finance the growth of the Company’s current and expected future operations as well as
to achieve our strategic objectives, the CEO has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing.
The
growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We currently have limited financial
resources and based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue as a going concern.
We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long-term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have
a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.
We
are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry.
Due to the absence of a long standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating
losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our revenue model is
new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven.
We may never ever achieve profitable operations. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our services,
the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the
market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional
development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate profits. Accordingly, we cannot assure you
that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, achieve or sustain profitability, or continue as a
going concern.
Foreign
Currency Translation Risk
Our
operations are located in the China, which may give rise to significant foreign currency risks from fluctuations and the degree of volatility
in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). All of our sales are in RMB. In the past
years, RMB continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar. As of March 31, 2021, the market foreign exchange rate had increased to RMB
6.55 to one U.S. dollar. Our financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items
are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are
translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at
the average exchange rate for the period. All translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement
of equity. The foreign currency translation (loss) gain for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $(0.2) million and $0.1 million,
respectively.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
have no off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) as of March 31, 2021 that have
or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses,
results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
