Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the
consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking
statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly
under the heading “Risk Factors.”
Overview of Our Business
Future FinTech Group Inc. is a Florida holding
company with no material operations of its own. We conduct substantially all of our business through subsidiaries, and this structure
involves unique risks for investors. We are not a Chinese operating company, although we have had significant operations in China and
Hong Kong.
Historically, our business was focused on fruit
juice manufacturing and distribution in China. Due to rising production costs and stricter environmental laws, we shifted our operations
toward supply chain financing and trading in China, asset management in Hong Kong, cross-border money transfer services in the United
Kingdom, brokerage and investment banking in Hong Kong, and cryptocurrency mining in the United States. Most of these activities have
since been reduced or exited.
Recent strategic changes include:
●
Exit from Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) operations in China – Our VIE, E-Commerce Tianjin, generated minimal revenue since 2021 and was deregistered on March 7, 2024.
●
Disposal of Hong Kong asset management operations – In November 2024, we sold our remaining 42.86% interest in Nice Talent Asset Management Limited for approximately $300,000 and ceased asset management activities in Hong Kong.
●
Sale of cryptocurrency mining operations – On December 9, 2024, we sold FTFT Super Computing Inc., including the assumption of approximately $973,000 in liabilities and $1.0 million applied toward a litigation judgment.
●
Disposition of multiple subsidiaries – On December 18, 2024,
we sold Future Fintech Digital Capital Management LLC, FTFT UK Limited, DigiPay FinTech Limited, Global Key Shared Mall Ltd., Future Fintech
Labs Inc., and Future Fintech Digital Number One GP, LLC through a court-ordered auction for $25,000. On November 18, 2025, we sold Future
Commercial Management (Hainan) Co., Ltd. to Xi’an Yinshi Trading Co., Ltd. for $1.4 million (RMB 10 million).
●
Closure of Paraguay cryptocurrency venture – FTFT Paraguay S.A., acquired in 2022, was dissolved in December 2023 after we were unable to develop planned operations.
42
As of December 31, 2025, our principal business
operations consist of: sale of fast-moving consumer goods; commission-based trading and consulting services; and supply chain financing
and trading.
We currently have one directly controlled subsidiary,
Future FinTech (Hong Kong) Limited.
Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (“FMCG”)
Since the third quarter of 2024, we entered into
FMCG business to tap into the fast-growing online retail market. We operate an online store on reputable e-commerce platform and focus
on sales of non-alcoholic beverage and dairy beverages. The business model relies on selling large quantities of goods to generate revenue,
as the profit margin on each individual item is usually slim.
Supply Chain Financing Service and Trading in China
Since the second quarter of 2021, we have engaged
in the coal supply chain financing service and trading business. Since the third quarter of 2021, we have engaged in aluminum ingots supply
chain financing service and trading business. Since the first quarter of 2023, we have engaged in sand and steel supply chain financing
service and trading business.
Our supply chain finance business mainly serves
the receivables and payables of industrial customers, obtains the creditor’s rights or commodity goods rights of large state-owned
enterprises through trade execution, provides customers with working capital, accelerates capital turnover, and then expands the business
scale and improves the industrial value.
Through our supply chain service ability and customer
resources, we can tap into low-risk assets, flexibly carry out financial services around the actual financial needs of certain industries,
and reduce the overall risk of the business by using the control of business flow, goods logistics and capital flow in the process of
commodity circulation.
We focus on bulk commodity goods such as coal,
aluminum ingots, sand and steel and take large state-owned or listed companies as the core service targets; we use our own funds as the
operation basis, actively uses a variety of channels and products for financing, such as banks, commercial factoring companies, accounts
receivable, asset-backed securities, and other innovative financing methods to obtain sufficient funds.
We sign purchase and sale agreements with suppliers
and buyers. The suppliers are responsible for the supply and transportation of goods to the end users’ designated freight yard or
transfer the title to us in certain warehouses. We also provide trading service as we don’t take control over the ownership of the
goods but receive an agent service fee for the transaction. For the sale of goods where we obtain control of the goods before transferring
them to the customer, we recognize revenue based on the gross revenue amount billed to customers as sales of goods. We consider multiple
factors when determining whether we obtain control of the goods, including evaluating if we can establish the price of the goods, retain
inventory risk for tangible goods or have the responsibility for ensuring acceptability of the goods. We recognize net revenue as agent
services for the sales of coals, aluminum ingots, and steel when no control is obtained throughout the transactions. We select customers
and suppliers that have good credit and reputation.
43
However, due to the continuous decline in coal prices and weakening market
demand in China, we have significantly scaled down our supply chain financing and trading business segment since late 2025. This business
segment generated limited revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025, and we may continue to conduct certain related activities in
2026 depending on market conditions.
Trading Commission and Consulting services
FTFT International Securities and Futures Limited,
a company we acquired in November 2023, provides brokerage and investment banking services in Hong Kong. FTFT International Securities
and Futures Limited holds Type 1 “Securities Trading”, Type 2 “Futures Contract Trading” and Type 4 “Securities
Consulting” financial licenses issued by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission.
Meanwhile, we also provide integrated business
and financial consulting services that helps our customers turn ambitious goals into financial realities. Through our deep industry expertise,
we partner closely with our customers to diagnose complex challenges, develop data-backed strategies, and drive seamless execution. Our
consulting services includes but not limited to debt recovery consulting service, listing and financing consulting service etc.

Segment Information Reclassification
We classified our business segments into Trading
Commission and Consulting services, Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), and Supply Chain Financing and Trading.
Uses of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
Our 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 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 are not limited to, the expected credit losses for receivables, estimated useful life and residual value of property and equipment,
impairment of long-lived assets, provision for staff benefits, 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 consolidated
financial statements.
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.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents
and restricted cash and short-term investments are classified within level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using
quoted market prices.
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies 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 our 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. Control is generally
transferred when the Company has a present right to payment and title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of products or
services are transferred to its customers.
45
Foreign Currency and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The financial statements of the Company’s
foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency; however, the reporting currency of the Company
is the United States dollar (“USD”). Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have been translated
into USD using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, while equity accounts are translated using historical exchange rate. The average
exchange rate for the period has been used to translate revenues and expenses. Translation adjustments are reported separately and accumulated
in a separate component of equity (cumulative translation adjustment).
Other comprehensive income (loss) for the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 represented foreign currency translation adjustments and were included in the consolidated statements
of operation and comprehensive loss.
There is no guarantee the RMB amounts could have
been, or could be, converted into USD at rates used in translation.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Any tax paid by subsidiaries during the year is recorded. Current tax
is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowable for income tax purpose
and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax liabilities or assets are recorded
to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the financial reporting
amounts at each period end. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred
tax asset will not be realized.
ASC 740 provides guidance for recognizing and
measuring uncertain tax positions, and it prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the
uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. ASC 740 also provides accounting guidance on derecognizing, classification
and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets , long-lived assets, such as property 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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed all the recently issued, but
not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. See Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our Consolidated Financial Statements for
a description of applicable recent accounting pronouncements.

Revenue from sales of FMCG increased by $3,234,308,
or 12,665.18%, from $25,537 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $3,259,845 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was
primarily attributable to the Company’s strategic expansion into the FMCG sector in September 2024, which significantly contributed
to revenue growth during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Revenue from supply chain financing/trading decreased
by $956,359, or 99.86%, from $957,708 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $1,349 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease
was due to our management’s decision to temporarily suspend these operations resulting from lower coal prices and reduced market
demand in China during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Revenue from trading commission and consulting
services decreased by $562,554, or 49.73%, from $1,131,165 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $568,611 for the year ended December
31, 2025. The decrease was mainly because a major project, which boosted revenue from consulting service during the year ended December
31, 2024, did not recur during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Overall gross profit decreased by $829,619, or
67.02%, to $408,320 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $1,237,939 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily
due to the decrease in gross profit from trading commission and consulting services, and supply chain financing/trading which were in
line with the decrease in revenue for these two business segments for the year ended December 31, 2025. Although revenue from the FMCG
segment increased significantly for the year ended December 31, 2025, gross profit from this business segment did not increase simultaneously
due to its low gross margin. Overall gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 10.66% for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing
a decrease of 47.89 percentage points from 58.55% for the year ended December 31, 2024, mainly due to the decrease in gross margin for
debt recovery consulting service fee, and our gross margin was further eroded by that of the FMCG segment, which accounted for a majority
portion of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.

was primarily attributable to reduced salary, employee benefit and bonus expenses as a result of the implementation of cost-control measures,
as well as a decrease in commission caused by decreased consulting service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Stock compensation expense increased by $414,020
or 61.70%, from $670,980 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $1,085,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025. On March 10, 2025, the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company granted 125,000 shares of common stock, pursuant to the Company’s
2024 Omnibus Equity Plan, to certain officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. As the closing price of the Company stock
was $8.68 on March 10, 2025, the Company recorded an expense of $1.09 million in the year ended December 31, 2025.
Selling expenses increased by $212,395, or 33.40%,
from $635,918 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $848,313 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable
to increased business entertainment expenses, resulting from our initiatives to expand into new business segments and acquire new customers.
49
Allowance for credit losses/doubtful accounts
increased slightly by $24,768, or 0.09%, from $28,113,978 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $28,138,746 for the year ended December
31, 2025. Our management will continue monitoring and putting effort in collection of receivables to lower the level of the allowance.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Net other income increased by $3,914,274 or 458.66%,
from net other expense of $853,406 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to net other income of $3,060,868 for the year ended December
31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the gain on debt restructuring during the year ended December 31, 2025. On June 17, 2025,
we entered into a settlement and forbearance agreement (“the Agreement”) with FT Global. Pursuant to the Agreement, we were
required to pay an aggregate settlement amount of $2.0 million and issue a total of 425,000 shares of common stock. Upon the debt restructurings,
we recognized a gain of $3.07 million which was recorded as gain on debt restructuring on the consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss. The increase in net other income was also attributable to the absence of litigation-related compensation paid to FT
Global during the year ended December 31, 2024, and no such cost was incurred during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Net Loss From Continuing Operations
Net loss from continuing operations decreased
by $2,792,751, or 8.28%, from $33,739,005 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $30,946,254 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The
decrease was primarily due to the increase in other income, net as discussed above.
Gain on Disposal of Discontinued Operations
Gain on disposal of discontinued operations was
$28.31 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, which was related to the transfer of FTFT UK LIMITED, FTFT Finance UK Limited, Future
Fintech Digital Number One US, LP, Future Fintech Digital Number One Offshore, LLC (Cayman), Future Fintech Digital Number One GP, LLC
(USA), FTFT Digital Number One, Ltd. (Cayman), Future FinTech Labs Inc, Future Fintech Digital Capital, FTFT CAPITAL INVESTMENTS, DigiPay
FinTech Limited, DCON DigiPay Limited-JPN, Global Key Shared Mall Ltd. and Future Commercial Management (Hainan) Co., Ltd.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
For the year ended December 31, 2025, basic and
diluted loss per share from continuing operations were both $15.52, as compared to loss per share of $64.49 (both basic and diluted) for
the year ended December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, basic and diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations
were both $13.21, as compared to earnings per share of $1.50 and $1.49 for the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We currently finance our business operations primarily
through convertible notes and the sale of our common stock. Our current cash primarily consists of cash on hand and cash in bank. As of
December 31, 2025, we had cash and restricted cash of $5.08 million, representing an increase of $0.31 million from $4.77 million as of
December 31, 2024.
50
Working Capital
Our working capital has historically been generated from our operating
cash flows, advances from our customers and convertible notes. Our working capital was $42.55 million as of December 31, 2025, an increase
of $34.95 million from working capital of $7.60 million as of December 31, 2024, mainly due to the increase in investment funds and the
decrease in accrued expenses and other payables.
