SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of presentation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the
opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and
reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September
30, 2021 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The financial data and other
information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent periods
or for the entire year ending December 31, 2021. The balance sheet of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements
at that date.
Our
contractual arrangements with our VIE and their respective shareholders allow us to (i) exercise effective control over our VIE, (ii)
receive substantially all of the economic benefits of our VIE, and (iii) have an exclusive option to purchase all or part of the equity
interests in our VIE when and to the extent permitted by PRC law.
As
a result of our direct ownership in our wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) Cloud Chain Network and Technology (Tianjin)
Co., Limited, formerly known as Chain Cloud Mall Network and Technology (Tianjin) Co., Limited (“CCM Tianjin”) and the contractual
arrangements with our VIE, we are regarded as the primary beneficiary of our VIE, and we treat it and its subsidiaries as our consolidated
affiliated entities under U.S. GAAP. We have consolidated the financial results of our VIE in our condensed consolidated financial statements
in accordance with U.S. GAAP
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations.
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 2020 as included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Discontinued
Operations
On
February 27, 2020, SkyPeople Foods Holding Limited(the “Seller”) completed the transfer of its ownership of HeDeTang Holdings
(HK) Ltd. (“HeDeTang HK”) to New Continent International Co., Ltd. (the “Buyer”), an unrelated third party and
a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands for a total price of RMB 0.6 million (approximately $ 85,714 ), pursuant to a Share
Transfer Agreement entered into by the Seller and the Buyer on September 18, 2019 and approved at the special shareholders meeting of
the Company on February 26, 2020. As the Company believed that no continued cash flow would be generated by the sold component, in accordance
with ASC 205-20, the Company presented the operating results from Hedetang HK as discontinued operations within the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
In
addition, Company’s Huludao Wonder operation, a subsidiary which produced concentrated apple juice, suffered continued operating
losses from 2014 to 2016 and its cash flow was minimal for these three years. In December 2016, the Company established a winding-down
plan to close this operation. Based on the restructuring plan and in accordance with ASC 205-20, the Company presented the operating
results from Huludao Wonder as a discontinued operation.
On March 11, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors
passed a resolution to sell the operation of Future Supply Chain limited and Zhonglian Hengxin Assets Management Co., Ltd (“Zhonglian
Hengxin”) and close the operation of Digital Online Marketing Limited, SkyPeople Foods Holding Limited. and Chain Future Digital

Center (Shanxi) Co., Ltd. completed the transfer of their ownership of Hedetang Farm Products Trading Markets (Mei country) Co., Ltd.
to third parties.
7
On
April 19, 2021, FT Commercial Management (Beijing) Co., Ltd. was dissolved and deregistered.
On August 2, 2021, the Company sold Guangchengji
(Guangdong) Industrial Co., Ltd. to an unrelated third party.
On
September 2, 2021, Future Supply Chain Co., Ltd. discontinued its operations.
Based
on the disposal plan and in accordance with ASC 205-20, the Company presented the operating results from these operations as a discontinued
operation.
Segment
Information Reclassification
Historically,
the Company operated in five segments: concentrated apple juice and apple aroma, concentrated kiwifruit juice and kiwifruit puree, concentrated
pear juice, fruit juice beverages, and others.
As
the Company classified the juice related operation into discontinued operation in the beginning of year 2019, and in accordance with
the Company’s new business strategy, the Company classified business segment into CCM Shopping Mall Membership, sales of goods,
asset management service , coal and aluminum ingots supply chain financing service and trading and others.
Uses
of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and this 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. The significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful receivable,
estimated useful life and residual value of property, plant and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets provision for staff benefit,
recognition and measurement of deferred income taxes and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Although these estimates are based
on management’s knowledge of current events and actions management may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ
from those estimates and such differences may be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Going
Concern
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
The
Company incurred operating losses and had negative operating cash flows and may continue to incur operating losses and generate negative
cash flows as the Company implements its future business plan. These factors raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. The Company has raised funds through issuance of convertible notes and common stock.
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 that may be necessary
if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
In
accordance with the ASC 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets , long-lived assets, such as
property, plant and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable, or it is reasonably possible that these assets
could become impaired as a result of technological or other industrial changes. The determination of recoverability of assets to be held
and used is made by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets.
If
such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of
the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value
less cost to sell.
8
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company has adopted FASB ASC Topic on Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes
a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-level
valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable input, which may be used to measure fair value and include
the following:
Level
1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2 - Input other than Level 1 that is observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities;
quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other input that is observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for
substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level
3 - Unobservable input that is supported by little or no market activity and that is significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our
cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified within level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are value using
quoted market price.
Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
Under
ASC 260-10, Earnings Per Share , basic EPS excludes dilution for Common Stock equivalents and is calculated by dividing net income
(loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding for the period.
Diluted
EPS is calculated by using the treasury stock method, assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities, such as stock options
and warrants. Under this method, (i) exercise of options and warrants is assumed at the beginning of the period and shares of Common
Stock are assumed to be issued, (ii) the proceeds from exercise are assumed to be used to purchase Common Stock at the average market
price during the period, and (iii) the incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number
of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted EPS computation. The numerators and denominators used in
the computations of basic and diluted EPS are presented in the following table.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash
and cash equivalents included cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted
as to withdrawal and use and with an original maturity of three months or less.
Deposits
in banks in the PRC are only insured by the government up to RMB 500,000 , and are consequently exposed to risk of loss. The Company believes
the probability of a bank failure, causing loss to the Company, is remote.
Receivable
and Allowances
Accounts
receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amounts less an allowance for any uncollectible amount. We have a policy
of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable.
We extend credit to our customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. We generally do not require
collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance
for potential bad debts if required.
Other
receivables, and loan receivables are recognized and carried at the initial amount when occurred less an allowance for any uncollectible
amount. We have a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of probable impairment losses
in our existing receivable.
We
determine whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is required by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the customers
may have an inability to meet financial obligations. In these cases, we use assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts
and circumstances, to record a specific allowance for those customers against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount expected
to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The amounts calculated
are analyzed to determine the total amount of the allowance. We may also record a general allowance as necessary.
Direct
write-offs are taken in the period when we have exhausted our efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivable or otherwise evaluate
other circumstances that indicate that we should abandon such efforts.
11
The
Company has assessed its receivable including credit term and corresponding all its receivables in September 2021.
Upon such credit terms, bad debt expense was $( 15,255 ) and $ 0.24 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively. There is no accounts receivable balance overdue for over 90 days as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020
Inventories
Inventories
consist of raw materials, packaging materials (which include ingredients and supplies) and finished goods (which) include finished juice
in the bottling, canning operations and other. Inventories also consist of merchant gift package to be delivered with the new membership
signed up in our e-commerce platform. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We determine cost on the basis
of the weighted average method. The Company periodically reviews inventories for obsolescence and any inventories identified as obsolete
are written off.
Revenue
Recognition
We
apply the five steps defined under ASC 606: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in
the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract,
and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. We assess its revenue arrangements against specific
criteria in order to determine if it is acting as principal or agent. Revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations are
divided into separate distinct goods or services. We allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative
standalone selling price of the goods or services provided. Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of promised goods or services
to a customer.
We
do not make any significant judgment in evaluating when control is transferred. Revenue is recorded net of value-added tax.
Revenue
recognitions are as follows:
Online
sales and membership fee:
The
Company recognizes the sale of goods 15 days after the products are shipped (after the 15 days return policy). The revenue from the membership
fee is amortized over the lifetime of the membership, which is one year. For the merchandise gift package, revenue is recognized when
the receipt of the gift package is confirmed by the members. Other revenues include revenues earned on net basis from sales of certain
products on our platform. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company has transformed its member based business model to sales agent
based business model for its online shopping mall.
Sales
of coals and aluminum ingots
The
Company recognize revenue when the receipt of merchandise is confirmed by the customers, which is the point that the title of the goods
is transferred to the customer.
Asset
Management Service
The company recognition of service revenue when a service is completed,
the company issues billing to its customers and recognizes revenue according to the billing.
Property,
Plant and Equipment
Property,
plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
method over the useful lives of the assets. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated; maintenance and repairs that
do not extend the life of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation
are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
12
Depreciation
related to property, plant and equipment used in production is reported in cost of sales, and includes amortized amounts related to capital
leases. We estimated that the residual value of the Company’s property and equipment ranges from 3 % to 5 %. Property, plant and
equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Machinery and equipment
5 - 10 years
Furniture and office equipment
3 - 5 years
Motor vehicles
5 years
Leasehold Improvement
3 years
Intangible
Assets
Acquired
intangible assets are recognized based on their cost to the Company, which generally includes the transaction costs of the asset acquisition,
and no gain or loss is recognized unless the fair value of noncash assets given as consideration differs from the assets’ carrying
amounts on the Company’s book. These assets are amortized over their useful lives if the assets are deemed to have a finite life
and they are reviewed for impairment by testing for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying
amount may not be recoverable. The fair value of an intangible asset is the amount that would be determined if the entity used the assumptions
that market participants would use if they were pricing the intangible asset. The useful life of the Company’s intangible assets
is ten years, which is determined by using the time period that an intangible is estimated to contribute directly or indirectly to a
Company’s future cash flows.
Foreign
Currency and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The
financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and VIE are measured using the local currency as the functional currency;
however, the reporting currency of the Company is the USD. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and VIE
have been translated into USD using the exchange rate at the balance sheet dates, while equity accounts are translated using historical
exchange rate. The exchange rate we used to convert RMB to USD was 6.49 and 6.52 at the balance sheet dates of September 30, 2021 and
December 31, 2020, respectively. The average exchange rate for the period has been used to translate revenues and expenses. The average
exchange rates we used to convert RMB to USD were 6.47 and 6.99 for nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Translation
adjustments are reported separately and accumulated in a separate component of equity (cumulative translation adjustment).
Income
Taxes
We
use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under
this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred
tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements
or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance
is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is
more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC
Topic 740-10-30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-25 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting
periods presented.
Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on
an annual basis, or when events occur or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. If the
fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that implied fair value of
the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The company will perform annual goodwill impairment test end
of the fiscal year.
13
Lease
After
adoption of ASC 842 and related standards, which introduced a lessee model that requires entities to recognize assets and
liabilities for most leases, but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting, thus operating
lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease
term. For short-term leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less and with purchase options we are reasonably certain will
not be exercised. As a lessee, the Company leases equipment and office building. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
Convertible
notes
The
Company accounts for its convertible notes at issuance by allocating the proceeds received from a convertible note among freestanding
instruments according to ASC 470, Debt, based upon their relative fair values. The fair value of debt and common stock is determined
based on the closing price of the common stock on the date of the transaction. Convertible notes are subsequently carried at amortized
cost. Each convertible note is analyzed for the existence of a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), defined as the fair
value of the common stock at the commitment date for the convertible note, less the effective conversion price. No BCF was recognized
for the convertible notes issued during September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Share-based
compensation
The
Company awards share options and other equity-based instruments to its employees, directors and consultants (collectively “share-based
payments”). Compensation cost related to such awards is measured based on the fair value of the instrument on the grant date. The
Company recognizes the compensation cost over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which
generally is the vesting period. The amount of cost recognized is adjusted to reflect the expected forfeiture prior to vesting. When
no future services are required to be performed by the employee in exchange for an award of equity instruments, and if such award does
not contain a performance or market condition, the cost of the award is expensed on the grant date. The Company recognizes compensation
cost for an award with only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
period for the entire award, provided that the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized at any date at least equals the portion
of the grant-date value of such award that is vested at that date.

New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC
326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires the measurement and recognition of expected
credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected
loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of
other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance
for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in earlier recognition
of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives
and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASC 2019-10”), which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, for public entities which meet the
definition of a smaller reporting company. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2023. Management is currently evaluating
the effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the consolidated financial statements. The effect will largely depend on the composition
and credit quality of our investment portfolio and the economic conditions at the time of adoption.
In
August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-06 (ASU 2020-06) “Accounting for Convertible Instruments and
Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics
of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. For public business entities
that are not smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-6 effective fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within
those fiscal years.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material impact
on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

18. INCOME TAX
The
Company is incorporated in the United States of America and is subject to United States federal taxation. No provisions for income taxes
have been made, as the Company had no U.S. taxable income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The effective income
tax rate for the Company for both of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were 0 % and 0 % respectively.
The Company evaluates the level of authority for each
uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the
unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had no unrecognized
tax benefits. Due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company estimates there will not be sufficient future income to
realize the deferred tax assets for its subsidiaries and VIE.
The Company has not provided deferred tax assets
from foreign subsidiaries operating losses because currently no business operation and no future income is anticipating.
The
amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to the dividend from foreign subsidiaries is not determined
because such determination is not practical.
The
Company has not provided deferred taxes on undistributed earnings attributable to its PRC and Hong Kong subsidiaries as they are to be
permanently reinvested.
The
Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of ASC Topic
740, Income Taxes . Since the Company intends to reinvest its earnings to further expand its businesses in mainland China, its
PRC subsidiaries do not intend to declare dividends to their immediate foreign holding companies in the foreseeable future. Accordingly,
the Company has not recorded any deferred taxes in relation to US tax on the cumulative amount of undistributed retained earnings since
January 1, 2008.
Effective
on January 1, 2008, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, EIT Law, and Implementing Rules imposed a unified enterprise income tax rate of
25% on all domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions.
All of the Companies’ Chinese subsidiaries and VIE were subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25%.
19.

SEGMENT REPORTING
In its operation of the business, management,
including our chief operating decision maker, who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews certain financial information, including segmented
internal profit and loss statements prepared on a basis consistent with GAAP. The Company operates in four segments starting in fiscal
2020: shared shopping mall membership fee, fruit related products, sales of goods and others. The operation of fruit related products
is classified as discontinued operation as disclosed in Note 15. In 2021, the Company principally generates its revenues from coal
and aluminum ingots supply chain financing service and trading business and asset management service.
In compliance with the Company’s business
transformation strategy, membership fees from the shared shopping mall and sales of goods through the shared shopping mall platform started
to generate the main revenues for the Company and became more and more important business sections of the Company from fiscal year 2019,
while its traditional business section of seasonal fruit related products continued to shrink in fiscal year 2019. However, due the COVID-19
pandemic and restriction on large gatherings in China, which have made the promotion strategy for its online e-commerce platforms difficult
to implement and the Company has experienced difficulties to subscribe new members for its online e-commerce platforms. Due to lack of
new members, difficulties in retaining old customers and significant decrease of revenue in e-commerce business, the Company began to
provide supply chain financing services for coal mines and power generation plants to buy and sell coals and trading aluminum ingots.
Some
of our operation might not individually meet the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments and we determine the reportable
segments based on the discrete financial information provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker
evaluates the results of each segment in assessing performance and allocating resources among the segments. Since there is an overlap
of services and products between different subsidiaries of the Company, the Company does not allocate operating expenses and assets based
on the product segments. Therefore, operating expenses and asset information by segment are not presented. Segment profit represents
the gross profit of each reportable segment.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal
case with FT Global Litigation
In
January 2021, FT Global Capital, Inc. (“FT Global”), a former placement agent of the Company filed a lawsuit against the
Company in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia. FT Global served the complaint upon the Company in January 2021. In
the complaint, FT Global alleges claims, most of which attempt to hold the Company liable under legal theories that relate back to an
alleged breach of an exclusive placement agent agreement between FT Global and the Company in July 2020 which had a term of three months.
FT Global claims that the Company failed to compensate FT Global for securities purchase transactions between December 2020 and April
2021, pursuant to the terms of the expired exclusive placement agent agreement. Allegedly, the exclusive placement agent agreement
required the Company to pay FT Global for capital received during the term of the agreement and for the 12-month period following the
termination of the agreement involving any investors that FT Global introduced and/or wall-crossed to the Company. However, the
Company believes the securities purchase transactions at issue did not involve the one investor which FT Global introduced or wall-crossed
to the Company during the term of the agreement. FT Global claims approximately $ 7,000,000 in damages and attorneys’ fees.
The Company timely removed the case to the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia (the (“Court”) on February 9, 2021 based on diversity of jurisdiction.
On March 9, 2021, the Company filed a motion to dismiss based on FT Global’s failure to state a claim which is pending before the
Court. On March 23, 2021, FT Global filed its response to the Company’s motion to dismiss. FT Global argues that the Court
should deny the Company’s motion to dismiss. However, if the Court is inclined to grant the Company’s motion to dismiss,
FT Global requested that the Court permit it to file an amended complaint. On April 8, 2021, the parties filed a Joint Preliminary
Report and Discovery Plan. On April 12, 2021, the Court approved the Joint Preliminary Report and Discovery Plan and issued a Scheduling
Order placing this case on a six-month discovery tract. On April 30, 2021, the Company served FT Global with its Initial Disclosures.
On May 6, 2021, FT Global served the Company with its Initial Disclosures. On May 17, 2021, FT Global served the Company with its
First Amended Initial Disclosures. On November 10, 2021, the Court entered an Order granting the Company’s motion to
dismiss FT Global’s fraud claim and breach of contract claim as to the disclosure of its confidential and proprietary information.
The Court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss FT Global’s i) breach of contract claim for failure to pay FT Global pursuant
to the terms of the exclusive placement agent agreement; ii) claim for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and iii)
claim for attorney’s fees, and the court concluded that additional information can be obtained through discovery. The
Company will timely file an answer and defenses to FT Global’s complaint which is due on November 24, 2021. The Company will
continue to vigorously defend the action against FT Global.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Impact
of COVID 19
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported and has spread throughout China and other parts of the world. On March 11,
2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic”. In early 2020, Chinese government took
emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus, including quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of office
buildings and facilities in China. Substantially all of our revenues are generated in China. In response to the evolving
dynamics related to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company has followed the guidelines of local authorities as it prioritizes the health
and safety of its employees, contractors, suppliers and business partners. Our offices in China were closed and all of the Company’s
employees worked from home at the end of January until late March 2020. The quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure
of office buildings have materially negatively impacted our business. Our suppliers were negatively affected, and could continue to be
negatively affected in their ability to supply and ship products to our customers in case of any resurgence of COVID-19. Our customers
that have been negatively impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 may reduce their budgets to purchase products and services from us, which
may materially adversely impact our revenue. The business operations of the third parties’ stores on our e-commerce platform have
been and could continue to be negatively impacted by the outbreak, which may in turn adversely affect the business of our platform as
a whole as well as our financial condition and operating results. The outbreak has had and might continue to have disruption to our supply
chain, logistics providers, customers or our marketing activities in case of any resurgence of COVID-19, which could materially adversely
impact our business and results of operations. Some of our customers, contractors, suppliers and other business partners are small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which may not have strong cash flows or be well capitalized, and may be vulnerable to an epidemic outbreak
and slowing macroeconomic conditions. If the SMEs that we work with cannot weather the COVID-19 and the resulting economic impact, or
cannot resume business as usual after a prolonged outbreak, our revenues and business operations may be materially and adversely impacted.
The Company’s promotion strategy of CCM Shopping Mall previously mainly relied on the training of members and distributors through
meetings and conferences. Although China has already begun to recover from the outbreak of COVID-19, there have been small outbreaks
of COVID-19 in various cities in China and Chinese government still put a restriction on large gatherings. These restrictions made the
promotion strategy for our online e-commerce platforms difficult to implement. The Company has experienced difficulties to subscribe
new members for its online e-commerce platforms and has to transform its business model from member based platform to sales agent based
platform during the second quarter of 2021. Any further outbreaks of COVID-19 and its new variants could also negatively affect our supply
chain financing service and trading business for coals and aluminum ingots if there is any quarantines, travel restriction or supply
chain disruptions in China due to outbreak.
The
global economy has also been materially negatively affected by the COVID-19 and there is continued severe uncertainty about the duration
and intensity of its impacts. The Chinese and global growth forecast is extremely uncertain, which would seriously affect customer spending
on our online shopping malls.
While
the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of COVID-19 and its new variants may be difficult to assess or predict, a
widespread pandemic could result in significant disruption of global financial markets, negatively impacting our assets management business
as well as reducing our ability to access capital, which could negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction
resulting from the spread of COVID-19 and its new variants could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock.
PRC
Regulations
There
are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations including, but not limited to,
the laws and regulations governing our business and the enforcement and performance of our arrangements with customers in certain circumstances.
We are considered foreign persons or foreign funded enterprises under PRC laws and, as a result, we are required to comply with PRC laws
and regulations related to foreign persons and foreign funded enterprises. These laws and regulations are sometimes vague and may be
subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness of
newly enacted laws, regulations or amendments may be delayed, resulting in detrimental reliance. New laws and regulations that affect
existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict what effect the interpretation of existing
or new PRC laws or regulations may have on our business.

on Securities and Type 9: Asset Management. On September 1, 2021, FTFT UK Limited, a company organized under the laws of United Kingdom
and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Rahim Shah, a resident of United Kingdom (“Seller”)
to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares (the “Sale Shares”) of Khyber Money Exchange Ltd., which is a money

We
are a holding company incorporated in Florida and we are not a Chinese operating company. As a holding company with no material operations
of our own, we conduct a substantial majority of our operations through our subsidiaries and contractual arrangements with a variable
interest entity (VIE) – Cloud Chain E-Commerce (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., formerly known as Chain Cloud Mall E-Commerce (Tianjin) Co.,
Ltd. (“E-Commerce Tianjin”), based in China and this structure involves unique risks. Our shares of common stock are shares
of our Florida holding company, and we do not have any equity ownership of our VIE, instead we control and receive the economic benefits
of our VIE’s business operations through certain contractual arrangements, which are used to replicate foreign investment in Chinese-based
companies where Chinese law prohibits direct foreign investment in value added telecom/e-commerce business. Chinese regulatory authorities
could disallow the VIE structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or value of our shares, including
that it could cause the value of shares to significantly decline or become worthless.

There are legal and operational risks associated with
being based in and having a substantial majority of operations in China and Hong Kong. These risks could result in a material change in
our operations and/or the value of our common stock or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue
to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our shares to significantly decline or be worthless. Recently, the PRC government
initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including
cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable
interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly
enforcement. On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State
Council jointly issued an announcement to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development
of the capital market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight
of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve
the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws. Recently, the PRC State Internet Information Office issued the
Measures of Cybersecurity Review (Revised Draft for Comments, not yet effective), which requires cyberspace operators with personal information
of more than 1 million users who want to list abroad to file a cybersecurity review with the Office of Cybersecurity Review. As of the
date of this report, these new laws and guidelines have not impacted the Company’s ability to conduct its business, accept foreign
investments, or list on a U.S. or other foreign stock exchange; however, there are uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement
of these new laws and guidelines, which could materially and adversely impact our business and financial outlook and may impact our ability
to accept foreign investments or continue to list on a U.S. or other foreign stock exchange. Our VIE and certain subsidiaries of the Company
are incorporated and operating in mainland China and they have received all required permissions from Chinese authorities to operate their
current business in China, including a Business license, Bank Account Open Permits and Value Added Telecom Business License.
Chain
Cloud Mall adopts a “multi-vendor hosted stores + platform self-hosted stores” model. The platform supports various
marketing methods, including point rewards programs, coupons, live webcasts, game interaction, and social media sharing. Besides the
blockchain-powered features, CCM is also fully equipped with the same functions and services that other Chinese leading traditional e-commerce
platforms provide.
Based
on blockchain technology, CCM is established to transform the relationship between companies and consumers from traditional selling and
buying relationships to a value-sharing relationship. The platform will fairly distribute the benefit of the entire mall to users who
engaged in the promotion, development, and consumption based on their contributions to the platform. The users of CCM are not only consumers
and entrepreneurs but also participants, promoters and beneficiaries. The CCM shared shopping mall platform is designed to be a block-chain
based shopping mall for merchants and goods, not the exchange of digital currencies, and it currently only accepts payment from credit
cards, Alipay and WeChat.
Chain
Cloud Mall is an enterprise and customer interactive and comprehensive shopping and sales service platform. It is an open network promotion
system with a blockchain based anti-counterfeit system including referral point and discount points issuance and settlement. Such business
model creates a completely new source of data traffic for enterprises on our platform.
29
The
Company started its trial operation of NONOGIRL, a cross-border e-commerce platform, in March 2020 and formally launched it in July 2020.
The cross-border e-commerce platform aimed to build a new s2b2c (supplier to business and consumer) outsourcing sales platform dominated
by social media influencers. It was aimed at the growing female consumer market, with the ability to broadcast, short video, and all
forms communication through the platform. It could also create a sales oriented sharing ecosystem with other major social media used
by customers, etc. The Company’s promotion strategy previously mainly relied on the training of members and distributors through
meetings and conferences. Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the Chinese government put a restriction on large gatherings. These restrictions
made the promotion strategy for our online e-commerce platforms difficult to implement and the Company has experienced difficulties to
subscribe new members for its online e-commerce platforms. Due to the lack of new subscribers, in June 2021, the Company suspended its
cross-border e-commerce platform (NONOGIRL). Also, since the second quarter of 2021, the Company has transformed its member-based business
model of Chain Cloud Mall to sales agent based business model and began to provide supply chain financing services and trading for coal
mines and power generation plants as well as aluminum ingots.
The
Company currently has seven direct wholly-owned subsidiaries: DigiPay FinTech Limited (“DigiPay”), a company incorporated
under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, Future FinTech (Hong Kong) Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong,
GlobalKey Shared Mall Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands (“GlobalKey Shared Mall”), Tianjin
Future Private Equity Fund Management Partnership( Limited Partnership), a company incorporated under the laws of China, FTFT UK Limited,
a company incorporated under the laws of United Kingdom, Future Fintech Digital Capital Management, LLC, a company incorporated under
the laws of Connecticut and Future FinTech Labs Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of New York.
CCM
Shopping Mall
Due to the lack of new member subscriptions caused
by restrictions on our promotion strategy for the control of spread of COVID-19, we have transformed the CCM shopping mall to an “Enterprise
Communication as A Service” or eCAAS platform. The eCAAS platform is entrusted by the 315 Consumer Protection Foundation to run
its Responsible Brand Program.
315 Consumer Protection Foundation (the “Foundation”)
will review and accept the companies to join its Responsible Brand Program. After acceptance, these companies are authorized to use 315
anti-counterfeiting labels on their products and sell them on our eCAAS platform. The companies can also use sales agents to sell their
products on our eCAAS platform and parties can negotiate the commission percentages for the products sold. Any new sales agent must be
recommended by existing agents and pay a one-time fee to the eCAAS platform to be admitted as the authorized agent to provide sales agent
services on the platform.
Sales
of Goods
We
have a unique real-name based blockchain e-commerce shopping platform that integrates blockchain, internet technology and distinguishes
itself by utilizing the automatic value distribution system of the blockchain and sharing the value of the platform to all the participants
in the system.
Our
eCAAC platform has a value cycle system of online shopping mall with the real-name blockchain system with following characteristics:
1. Blockchain
anti-counterfeiting
Using real-name blockchain technology to carry out anti-counterfeiting for products produced by the enterprises. The essence of anti-counterfeiting is to determine the person responsible for the product. Using real-name blockchain system, it provides the assurance to our customers to the authentication of the products they purchase and solve the problem of counterfeiting products in online shopping mall.
30
2. Blockchain
points settlement leads to secondary data traffic
Blockchain points are also discount coupons for merchants, guiding customers to the platform of the merchants, and provide them with discounts when purchasing. This process is called secondary data traffic. Blockchain anti-counterfeiting technology through scanning of QR codes by the customers helps companies identify such customers and allows them to systematically maintain contacts with such customers.
3. Points
promotion system
Points promotion system brings secondary
data traffic comes with volume and high turnover ratio. All such sales are directed to the merchants’ stores when customers possess
and use merchant’s coupons. With a high level of user stickiness, customers are likely to purchase products again and collect more
blockchain points.
4. Building
a high value community
We believe anti-counterfeiting technology plus the Company’s secondary data traffic platform will create great value for the merchants that have stores on our platform. By gathering all loyal customers to a merchant’s store, we can build a standard value community. With the common interest, the value community of merchants can form a self-organizing system with customer groups to maximize the interests of such merchants and customers.

of CCM Shopping Mall from a member-based platform to a sales agent based eCAAC platform. Due to COVID-19 related restriction on large
gathering for meetings and conference which primarily used by us before the pandemic for marketing and business development of new members,
we were unable to attract new member enrollment during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our principal executive officer and principal
interim financial officer, respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls
and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we currently
lack sufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting
requirements.
We
have taken, and are taking, certain actions to remediate the material weakness related to our lack of U.S. GAAP experience. We have engaged
an outside consultant with U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience to supplement our current internal accounting personnel and assist us in
the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe
the measures described above will remediate the material weakness from the quarter identified above. As we continue to evaluate and work
to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures.
Changes
to Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other
than discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange
Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,

1. Legal Proceedings
Legal
case with FT Global Litigation
In
January 2021, FT Global Capital, Inc. (“FT Global”), a former placement agent of the Company filed a lawsuit against the
Company in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia. FT Global served the complaint upon the Company in January 2021. In
the complaint, FT Global alleges claims, most of which attempt to hold the Company liable under legal theories that relate back to an
alleged breach of an exclusive placement agent agreement between FT Global and the Company in July 2020 which had a term of three months.
FT Global claims that the Company failed to compensate FT Global for securities purchase transactions between December 2020 and April
2021, pursuant to the terms of the expired exclusive placement agent agreement. Allegedly, the exclusive placement agent agreement
required the Company to pay FT Global for capital received during the term of the agreement and for the 12-month period following the
termination of the agreement involving any investors that FT Global introduced and/or wall-crossed to the Company. However, the
Company believes the securities purchase transactions at issue did not involve the one investor which FT Global introduced or wall-crossed
to the Company during the term of the agreement. FT Global claims approximately $7,000,000 in damages and attorneys’ fees.
The Company timely removed the case to the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia (the (“Court) on February 9, 2021 based on diversity of jurisdiction.
On March 9, 2021, the Company filed a motion to dismiss based on FT Global’s failure to state a claim which is pending before the
Court. On March 23, 2021, FT Global filed its response to the Company’s motion to dismiss. FT Global argues that the Court
should deny the Company’s motion to dismiss. However, if the Court is inclined to grant the Company’s motion to dismiss,
FT Global requested that the Court permit it to file an amended complaint. On April 8, 2021, the parties filed a Joint Preliminary
Report and Discovery Plan. On April 12, 2021, the Court approved the Joint Preliminary Report and Discovery Plan and issued a Scheduling
Order placing this case on a six-month discovery tract. On April 30, 2021, the Company served FT Global with its Initial Disclosures.
On May 6, 2021, FT Global served the Company with its Initial Disclosures. On May 17, 2021, FT Global served the Company with its
First Amended Initial Disclosures. On November 10, 2021, the Court entered an Order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss
FT Global’s fraud claim and breach of contract claim as to the disclosure of its confidential and proprietary information.
The Court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss FT Global’s i) breach of contract claim for failure to pay FT Global pursuant
to the terms of the exclusive placement agent agreement; ii) claim for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and iii)
claim for attorney’s fees, and the court concluded that additional information can be obtained through discovery. The
Company will timely file an answer and defenses to FT Global’s complaint which is due on November 24, 2021. The Company will
continue to vigorously defend the action against FT Global.
