CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements may be preceded by, or contain, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,”
“might,” “could,” “would,” “should” or other words indicating future results, though
not all forward-looking statements necessarily contain these identifying words. All statements other than statements of historical fact
are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements about our future business operations
and results, our strategy and competition. These statements represent our current expectations or beliefs concerning various future events
and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, including, but not
limited to:
●
Our reliance on our top
customers is significant. Failure to attract new customers or retain existing ones cost-effectively could materially and adversely
impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
●
We hold a substantial amount
of accounts receivable, which may become uncollectible.
●
We face fines and penalties from the Chinese government for not completing required filings.
●
Our capacity to uphold
the quality and safety standards of our products.
●
Our ability to compete
effectively within the touchscreen display industry.
●
Without substantial additional
financing, our ability to execute our business plan will be compromised.
●
Failure to secure a new
parcel for constructing our new buildings and facilities, as well as acquiring and installing new production lines on the new parcel,
could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
●
Revocation or unavailability
of preferential tax treatments and government subsidies, or successful challenges to our tax liability calculation by PRC tax authorities,
may necessitate payment of tax, interest, and penalties exceeding our tax provisions.
●
Significant interruptions
in the operations of our third-party suppliers could potentially disrupt our operations.
●
Risks associated with fluctuations
in the cost, availability, and quality of raw materials may adversely affect our results of operations.
●
We are reliant on key executives
and highly qualified managers, and retention cannot be assured.
ii
●
Absence of long-term contracts
with our suppliers allows them to reduce order quantities or terminate sales to us at any time.
●
Failure to adopt new technologies
to evolving customer needs or emerging industry standards may materially and adversely affect our business.
●
Lack of business liability
or disruption insurance exposes us to significant costs and business disruption.
●
Adverse regulatory developments
in Mainland China may subject us to additional regulatory review, restrictions, disclosure requirements, and regulatory scrutiny
by the SEC, increasing compliance costs and hindering future securities offerings.
●
Our common stock may be
prohibited from trading in the U.S. under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if PCAOB inspection of our auditor is incomplete,
leading to delisting or prohibition and potential decline in stock value.
●
Changes in China’s
economic, political, or social conditions or government policies may adversely affect our business and operations.
●
Uncertainties regarding
the PRC legal system, including enforcement and sudden changes in laws and regulations, could adversely affect us and limit legal
protections.
●
Fluctuations in exchange
rates could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and your investment value.
●
The other risks and uncertainties
discussed under the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 12 of this Quarterly Report and our other filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although
we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels
of activity, performance, or achievements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
You
should read this Quarterly Report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in the foregoing documents by these cautionary statements.

WETOUCH
TECHNOLOGY INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 — BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Wetouch
Technology Inc. (“Wetouch”, or the “Company”), formerly known as Gulf West Investment Properties, Inc., was originally
incorporated in August 1992, under the laws of the state of Nevada.
On
October 9, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Wetouch Holding
Group Limited (“BVI Wetouch”) and all the shareholders of BVI Wetouch (each, a “BVI Shareholder” and collectively,
the “BVI Shareholders”), to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of BVI Wetouch in exchange for the issuance
to the BVI Shareholders an aggregate of 28,000,000 shares ( 1,400,000 shares post-Reverse Stock Split) of the Company’s common stock
(the “Reverse Merger”). In the Reverse Merger, each ordinary share of BVI Wetouch was exchanged for 2,800 shares ( 140 shares
post-Reverse Stock Split) of common stock of Wetouch. Immediately after the closing of the Reverse Merger on October 9, 2020, the Company
had a total of 31,396,394 ( 1,569,820 shares post-Reverse Stock Split) issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result of the
Reverse Merger, BVI Wetouch became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
BVI
Wetouch is a holding company whose only asset, held through a subsidiary, is 100 % of the registered capital of Sichuan Wetouch Technology
Co., Ltd. (“Sichuan Wetouch”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China
(“China” or the “PRC”). Sichuan Wetouch is primarily engaged in the business of research and development, manufacture,
and distribution of touchscreen displays to customers both in the PRC and overseas. The touchscreen products, which are manufactured
by the Company, are primarily for use financial terminals, automotive, Point of Sales, gaming, lottery, medical, Human-Machine Interface
(HMI), and other specialized industries.
The
Reverse Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein BVI Wetouch is considered the acquirer for
accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of BVI Wetouch have been brought forward at their book value
and no goodwill has been recognized. The number of shares, par value amount, and additional paid-in capital in the prior years are retrospectively
adjusted accordingly.
Corporate
History of BVI Wetouch
BVI
Wetouch was incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on August 14, 2020. It became the holding company of Hong Kong Wetouch
Electronics Technology Limited (“Hong Kong Wetouch”) on September 11, 2020.
Hong
Kong Wetouch Technology Limited (“HK Wetouch”), was incorporated as a holding company under the laws of Hong Kong Special
Administrative Region (the “SAR”) on December 3, 2020. On March 2, 2021, HK Wetouch acquired all shares of Hong Kong Wetouch.
Due to the fact that Hong Kong Wetouch and HK Wetouch are both under the same sole stockholder, the acquisition is accounted for under
common control.
In
June 2021, Hong Kong Wetouch completed its dissolution process pursuant to the minutes of its special stockholder meeting.
Sichuan
Wetouch was formed on May 6, 2011 in the PRC and became a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) in PRC on February 23,
2017. On July 19, 2016, Sichuan Wetouch was 100 % held by HK Wetouch.
On
December 30, 2020, Sichuan Vtouch was incorporated in Chengdu, Sichuan, under the PRC laws.
F- 5
In
March 2021, pursuant to local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national plan, Sichuan Wetouch was under
the government directed relocation order. Sichuan Vtouch took over the operating business of Sichuan Wetouch.
On
March 30, 2023, an independent third party acquired all shares of Sichuan Wetouch for a nominal amount.
As
a result of the above restructuring, HK Wetouch became the sole stockholder of Sichuan Vtouch.
The
following diagram illustrates the Company’s current corporate structure:
NOTE
2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31,
2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Wetouch. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the related
consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended.
In
the opinion of the management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of
the financial position as of March 31, 2025, the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025
and 2024 have been made. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of
annual results.
F- 6
Deconsolidation
of Sichuan Wetouch
On
March 30, 2023, upon transferring Sichuan Wetouch to a third-party individual for a nominal value, the Company was no longer able to
operate and exert control over this subsidiary whose operation has been taken over by Sichuan Vtouch since the first quarter of 2021.
As a result, Sichuan Wetouch was deconsolidated accordingly since the disposal date.
The
deconsolidated Sichuan Wetouch had assets, liabilities and the non-controlling interest on disposal date as the following:
March
30,
2023
Total assets as
of deconsolidated date
$ -
Total liabilities as of deconsolidated
date
-
Total gain or loss from deconsolidation
$ -
Upon
the deconsolidation, the Company was no longer entitled to the assets and also legally released from the liabilities previously held
by the deconsolidated Sichuan Wetouch, derived nil gain or loss from the deconsolidation in the condensed consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The disposal of Sichuan Wetouch did not represent a strategic
shift and did not have a major effect on the Company’s operation. There was no cash outflow for the disposal for the three months
ended March 31, 2023.
(b)
Uses of Estimates
In
preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date
of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the
allowance for estimated uncollectible receivables, fair values of financial instruments, inventory valuations, useful lives of property,
plant and equipment, the recoverability of long-lived assets, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, revenue recognition and
realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies
For a detailed discussion about Wetouch’s
significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in Wetouch’s
consolidated financial statements included in Company’s 2024 audited consolidated financial statements. Other than the revised accounting
policies on lease and segment reporting as below, during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025, there were no significant
changes made to Wetouch significant accounting policies.
F- 7
Lease
The
Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) for all periods presented. The Company elected the short-term
lease exemption for all contracts with lease terms of 12 months or less.
Under
the guidance of ASU 2016-02, an entity is required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose
key information about leasing arrangements.
The
Company’s lease terms include options to renew or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option.
The Company determines if a contract contains a lease based on whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits
from the use of an identified asset that the Company does not own and whether it has the right to direct the use of an identified asset
in exchange for consideration. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset
for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU
assets are recognized as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease incentives received. Lease liabilities are recognized
at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value
of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), because the interest rate implicit
in most of the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The IBR is a hypothetical rate based on the Company’s understanding
of what its credit rating would be and the resulting interest it would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar
economic environment over the lease term on a collateralized basis. Lease payments may be fixed or variable, however, only fixed payments
or in-substance fixed payments are included in the Company’s lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments are recognized
in operating expenses in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.
The
lease right-of-use assets are initially measured at the carrying amount of the lease liability and adjusted for any prepaid or accrued
lease payments, remaining balance of lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, or impairment charges relating to the
right-of-use-asset. Lease expense for minimum lease payments exclusive of value-added tax is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease term The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients at transition. The Company elected certain practical
expedients that must be elected as a package, which permit the Company to not reassess, under the new standard, prior conclusions about
(1) lease identification, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company elected a short-term lease
exception policy, which allows entities to not apply Topic 842 to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and
a hindsight policy, which allows an entity to include current considerations for existing leases when determining initial lease terms.
The Company has also elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for all leases and elected to utilize
an IBR (incremental borrowing rate) that equals the risk free rate plus premium for all leases when calculating the lease liability.
Segment
reporting
In
accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) or decision-making group,
in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company evaluated its portfolio of service to determine whether
certain services exhibit similar characteristics, such that they should be grouped together in the Company’s disclosure. The Company
derives revenue primarily from projects performed under: (i) master and general service contract with customers for electric power supply
solutions, mainly for the design and installation of low voltage outlet cable and bridge, power distribution box and electric vehicle
power station; (2) installation of power wires, power poles and electricity distribution equipment and facilities for power supply system
upgrade for both residential and commercial projects. The Company’s services have similar economic characteristics with respect
to construction project nature, raw materials and supplies to be used in the projects, vendors, marketing and promotions, customers and
methods of distribution. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive
Officer (“CEO”), who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance
of the Company. The CODM confers regularly to review trends in operating metrics, revisit, assess, and adjust significant strategic and
operational matters, and make resource adjustments as needed. These discussions include exploring opportunities for project acquisition,
responding immediately and effectively to operational adjustments, aligning ongoing business activities with corporate-level objectives,
improving customer satisfaction, and enhancing corporate culture, among other management concerns. The primary measure of segment revenue
and profitability for the Company’s operating segment is considered to be consolidated revenue and net income. Certain financial
information, such as revenue, can be disaggregated, whereas cost of revenues, selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative
expenses, research and development expenses and other income (expenses), are mixed and not disaggregated. Hence, with respect to costs
of revenues and operating expenses and other income (expenses), no discrete financial information beyond the consolidated results is
prepared and presented to the CODM.
As
all of the Company’s assets are all located in the PRC, no geographical segment information of assets is presented. The CODM does
not review any information regarding total assets on a reportable segment basis. Through the evaluation, the CODM determined that the
Company has only one reporting segment.

Recent
accounting pronouncements
On
November 27, 2023, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment
Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which requires that an entity disclose significant segment expenses impacting profit and loss
that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. The update is required to be applied retrospectively to prior periods
presented, based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. The amendments in
ASU 2023-07 are required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
On
December 14, 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
(“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires that entities disclose specific categories in their rate reconciliation and provide
additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The new standard is effective for the Company beginning
December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted effective for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2024. The adoption of the standard did
not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures
(Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires the disaggregation of certain
expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the notes to the consolidated financial statements to provide enhanced
transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of income and comprehensive income. ASU 2024-03 is effective
for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively
or retrospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of ASU 2024-03 or retrospectively to
any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. On January 6, 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-01 that clarifies for non-calendar
year-end entities the interim effective date of Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive
Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. Public business entities
are required to adopt the guidance in Update 2024-03 in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods
within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of
ASU 2024-03 will have on its related disclosures.
In
March 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-02—Liabilities (405): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 122. The amendments in this Update are effective immediately and on a fully retrospective basis to annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this standard to its consolidated financial statements
and disclosures.
Other
accounting standards that have been issued by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material
impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements
that are not anticipated to have an impact on, or are unrelated to, its unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results
of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

NOTE
6 — OPERATING LEASE
In
March 2021, pursuant to the local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national plan, the Company was under
the government directed relocation order to relocate from a parcel of state-owned land where we maintained our executive offices, research
and development facilities and factories. The Company received a total amount of RMB 115.2 million (approximately $ 17.7 million) from
the local government (see ITEM 2. PROPERTIES AND FACILITIES) to start the construction of the new facility in a neighboring Chengdu Wenjiang
District.
On
March 16, 2021, in order to minimize interruption of the Company’s business, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a leasing agreement
with Sichuan Renshou Shigao Tianfu Investment Co., Ltd. (later renamed as Meishan Huantian Industrial Co., Ltd.), a limited liability
company owned by the local government, to lease the property, and all buildings, facilities and equipment thereon (the “Demised
Properties) of Sichuan Wetouch, commencing from April 1, 2021 until December 31, 2021 at a monthly rent of RMB 300,000 ($ 41,100 ), which
period was extended to October 31, 2022. The lease was renewed on October 30, 2022, October 30, 2023 and August 9, 2024, respectively ,
with a monthly rent of RMB 400,000 ($ 54,800 ), the term of which has been extended to October 31, 2025 for the use of the Demised Properties.
The
Company’s new facility started in August 2021 yet was delayed and suspended due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and government-ordered
shutdowns in China. The Company has rescheduled and extended the completion by end of December 31, 2025 with the production at the new
facilities will commencing in the second quarter of 2026. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, management makes estimates and assumptions
to use the leasing property till the end of October 2026, and applies ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842) as practical expedients during
the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Both
operating lease expense and short-term lease expense are recognized in cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses.

NOTE
10 — CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE
a)
Convertible promissory notes
In
October, November, and December 2021, the Company, issued seven (7) convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) of an aggregate
principal amount of $ 2,250,000 , due in one year with discounted issuance price at 90.0 %. The Notes bore interest at a rate of 8.0 % per
annum, payable in one year and matured on October 27 , November 5 , November 16 , November 29 , and December 2, 2022 , respectively. Net proceeds
after debt issuance costs and debt discounts were approximately $ 1,793,000 . Debt issuance costs in the amount of $ 162,000 are recorded
as deferred charges and included in the other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The debt discount and debt issuance costs
are amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method over the terms of the Notes.
Unless
the Notes are converted, the principal amounts of the Notes, and accrued interest at the rate of 8 % per annum, are payable on the one-year
anniversary of the issuance of the Notes (the “Maturity Date”). If the Company fails to satisfy its loan obligation by the
Maturity Date, the default interest rate will be 16 %.
The
Lenders have the right to convert any or all of the principal and accrued interest on the Notes into shares of common stock of the Company
on the earlier of (i) 180 calendar days after the issuance date of the Notes or (ii) the closing of a listing for trading of the common
stock of the Company on a national securities exchange offering resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $ 15,000,000 or more (an
“ Uplist Offering ”). If the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180 th calendar date after
the issuance date of the Notes, the conversion price shall be 70 % of the per share offering price in the Uplist Offering; otherwise,
the conversion price is $ 15.0 per share.
Subject
to customary exceptions, if the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares of common stock at an effective price
per share lower than the conversion price of the Notes, the conversion rate of the Notes shall be reduced to such lower price.

or the market for the common stock. The Company also agreed to not issue securities at a future determined price.
The
Lenders have the right to require the Company to repay the Notes if the Company receives cash proceeds, including proceeds from customers
and the issuance of equity (including in the Uplist Offering). If the Company prepays the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, the Company
shall pay a 10 % prepayment penalty.
From
December 28, 2022 to April 6, 2023, the lenders of five outstanding Notes and the Company entered into an amendment to the Notes (“Amendment
No. 1 to Promissory Note”) extending the term of the Notes for an additional 6 months.
From
August 29 to September 9, 2023, the lenders of the outstanding Notes and the Company entered into an amendment to the Notes (“Amendment
No. 2 to Promissory Note”) that upon the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Uplist”),
the Company shall within three (3) business days after the Uplist, pay to the Holders amounts equal to 105 % of the total outstanding

F- 16
b)
Warrants
Accounting
for Warrants
In
connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also issued to the lenders seven (7) three-year warrants (the “Note Warrants”)
to purchase an aggregate of 90,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”).
The
Note Warrants issued to the lenders granted the holders the rights to purchase up to 10,000 shares of common stock of the Company at
an exercise price of $ 25 per share. However, if the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180 th calendar date
after the issuance date of the Note Warrants, then the exercise price shall be 125 % of the offering price of a share in the Uplist Offering.
If the adjusted exercise price as a result of the Uplist Offering is less than $ 25 per share, then the number of shares for which the
Warrants are exercisable shall be increased such that the total exercise price, after taking into account the decrease in the per share
exercise price, shall be equal to the total exercise price prior to such adjustment.
The
lenders have the right to exercise the Note Warrants on a cashless basis if the highest traded price of a share of common stock of the
Company during the 150 trading days prior to exercise of the Note Warrants exceeds the exercise price, unless there is an effective registration
statement of the Company which covers the resale of the Lenders.
If
the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares at an effective price per share lower than the exercise price of
the Note Warrants, the exercise price of the Note Warrants shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to customary exceptions.
The
lenders may not convert the Notes or exercise the Note Warrants if such conversion or exercise will result in each of the lenders, together
with any affiliates, beneficially owning in excess of 4.9 % of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately after
giving effect to such exercise unless such lender notifies the Company at least 61 days prior to such exercise.
During
the year ended December 31, 2023, two lenders exercised the Note Warrants cashlessly for 22,338 shares of common stock of the Company.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2024, one lender exercised the Note Warrants cashlessly for 2,725 shares of common stock.
As
the Note Warrant was issued in 2021 and was valid for three years , the remaining 38430 Note Warrant was expired during the year ended
December 31, 2024.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded $ 7,821 gain on changes in the fair value of common stock purchase warrants
liability using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
(c)
Registration Rights Agreements
Pursuant
to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreements between the Company and lenders of the Notes, the Company agreed to file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the shares of common stock underlying the Notes and the shares issuable
upon exercise of the Note Warrants within sixty days from the date of each Registration Rights Agreement. The Company also granted the
lenders piggyback registration rights on such securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreements.

fund previous years losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion
to their shareholders or by increasing the par value of the shares currently outstanding, provided that the remaining balance of the
statutory reserve after such issue is not less than 25 % of the registered capital.

NOTE
12 — SHARE BASED COMPENSATION
The
Company applied ASC 718 and related interpretations in accounting for measuring the cost of share-based compensation over the period
during which the consultants are required to provide services in exchange for the issued shares. The fair value of above award was estimated
at the grant date using the Black-Scholes model for pricing the share compensation expenses.
On
December 22, 2020, the board of directors of the Company authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 5,181 shares and warrants to purchase
an aggregate of 10,518 shares of common stock to The Crone Law Group, P.C. or its designees for legal services that had been rendered.

rate of 0 %, volatility of 43.5 % and an average interest rate of 0.11 %.
On

NOTE
13 — WEIGHTED AVERAGE NUMBER OF SHARES
In
October 2020, the Company entered into a reverse merger transaction. The Company computes the weighted-average number of shares of common
stock outstanding in accordance with ASC 260 states that in calculating the weighted average shares when a reverse merger takes place

NOTE
14 — RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Credit
Risk – The carrying amount of accounts receivable included in the balance sheet represents the Company’s exposure
to credit risk in relation to its financial assets. No other financial asset carries a significant exposure to credit risk. The Company
performs ongoing credit evaluations of each customer’s financial condition. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts
and such allowances in the aggregate have not exceeded management’s estimates.
The
Company has its cash in bank deposits primarily at state owned banks located in the PRC. Historically, deposits in PRC banks have been
secured due to the state policy of protecting depositors’ interests. The PRC promulgated a Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, effective
June 1, 2007, which contains provisions for the implementation of measures for the bankruptcy of PRC banks. The bank deposits with financial
institutions in the PRC are insured by the government authority for up to RMB 500,000 .
Interest
Rate Risk – The Company is exposed to the risk arising from changing interest rates, which may affect the ability of repayment
of existing debts and viability of securing future debt instruments within the PRC.
Currency
Risk - A majority of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of
the Company’s assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC,
certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates
set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be
processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order
to affect the remittance.
Concentrations
- The Company sells its products primarily to customers in the PRC and to some extent, the overseas customers in European countries
and East Asia such as South Korea and Taiwan. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, five customers accounted for
22.1 %, 16.9 %, 15.8 %, 15.1 % and 12.4 %, and five customers accounted for 22.4 %, 20.4 %, 14.6 %, 13.4 % and 11.1 %, respectively, of the Company’s
revenue.
The
Company’s top ten customers aggregately accounted for an aggregate of 99.7 % and 98.8 % of the total revenue for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
As
of March 31, 2025, six customers accounted for 23.5 %, 17.6 %, 14.4 %, 14.2 %, 12.1 % and 11.2 % of the total accounts receivable balance,
respectively.
The
Company purchases its raw materials through various suppliers. Raw material purchases from these suppliers which individually exceeded
10% of the Company’s total raw material purchases, accounted for an aggregate of approximately 48.2 % (four suppliers) and 42.4 %
(five suppliers) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The discussion should be read in conjunction
with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes presented herein. In addition to historical information, the
following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ significantly from those expressed, implied or anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed herein and any other periodic reports filed and to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. For more information regarding the risks and uncertainties of our business, See
“Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statement.”
Overview
The
Company is a Nevada holding company with no material operations of its own. We conduct substantially all of our operations through our
subsidiary in mainland China, which we control through BVI Wetouch. See “Item 1. Business – Corporate History and Structure”
for more details.
Because
our operations are primarily in China, we are subject to complex and evolving PRC laws and regulations. These include restrictions on
capital flows, dividend payments, currency conversion, cybersecurity and data privacy, and governmental discretion over overseas securities
offerings. These risks could materially affect our ability to transfer funds, conduct offerings, or continue operations in their current
form. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China.”
As
of March 31, 2025, the Company has contributed RMB 348.0 million (US$47.7 million) to its PRC subsidiary through intermediate holding
companies, which were accounted for as long-term investments. These funds have been used by our PRC subsidiary in its operations. To
date, no dividends or other distributions have been made by our PRC subsidiary to the Company. We may rely on future distributions from
our PRC subsidiary to fund our holding company obligations, subject to PRC law and restrictions. For more details, see “ Item
1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—As a holding company, we conduct our operations primarily through
our PRC subsidiary and face risks and uncertainties associated with this structure. ”
Under
current PRC law, dividend payments by our PRC subsidiary are limited to accumulated profits determined in accordance with PRC accounting
standards and are subject to statutory reserve requirements. Dividends to the Company are also subject to withholding tax, generally
10%, but reduced to 5% if treaty conditions are met. There is no assurance that the reduced rate will apply. For more details, see “ Item
1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system, including the
enforcement of laws and changes in laws and regulations, could adversely affect us and limit the legal protections available .”
2
We
currently do not have cash management policies dictating how funds are transferred between the Company and its subsidiaries. Most of
our cash is maintained in Renminbi in mainland China and may be subject to PRC restrictions on outbound transfers. For details, see “ Item
1A. Risk Factors - Risks Related to Doing Business in China - Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize
our revenues effectively and affect the value of your investment. ”
Through
our wholly owned subsidiaries, BVI Wetouch, HK Wetouch, and Sichuan Vtouch, we are engaged in the research, development, manufacturing,
sales and servicing of medium- to large-sized projected capacitive touchscreens. We are specialized in large-format touchscreens, which
are developed and designed for a wide variety of markets and used in the financial terminals, automotive, POS, gaming, lottery, medical,
HMI, and other specialized industries. Our product portfolio comprises medium- to large-sized projected capacitive touchscreens ranging
from 7.0 inch to 42 inch screens.
We generate revenues through
sales of our various touchscreen products.
We
sell our touchscreen products both domestically in China and internationally, covering major areas in Mainland China, including but not
limited to the eastern, southern, northern and southwest regions of Mainland China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Germany. We believe that
we have established a strong and diversified client base. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our domestic sales accounted
for approximately 67.3% and 63.1%, respectively, of our revenues, and our international sales accounted for approximately 32.7% and 36.9%,
respectively, of our revenues.
Since
our incorporation, we have effected two reverse stock splits of our common stock, including a 1-for-70 reverse split in 2020 and a 1-for-20
reverse split in 2023, and all share and per share information in this Quarterly Report has been retroactively adjusted to reflect these
actions. For more details, see “ Item 1. Business - Corporate History and Structure - Reverse Stock Splits ” of
the 2024 Form 10-K.
Construction
of our new facility
We
have been actively engaged in the construction of our new production facilities and office buildings in Chengdu Medicine City (Technology
Park), Wenjiang District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, Peoples’s Republic of China since the summer of 2023. The Company has planned
to increase the scope of facility construction by adding a touch machine construction area, to be completed by the end of 2025.
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we estimate
to finish the building construction by the end of 2025 and commence production in the second quarter of 2026. In consideration of
the capital requirements for the new facility construction, we plan to fund the project primarily with our existing cash on hand, which
totaled approximately $106.4 million as of March 31, 2025, and cash flows generated from operations, and we may seek additional financing
if needed to support the timely completion of the project.
Highlights
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 include:
● Revenues were $15.3 million, an increase of 2.7% compared to $14.9
million in the first quarter of 2024

(i)
PRC Domestic Market
For
the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue from the PRC domestic market increased by $0.9 million, or 9.6%, as a combined result
of: (i) an increase of 17.7% in sales volume, partially offset by (ii) a decrease of 5.3% in the average RMB selling price of our products,
and partially offset by 1.2% negative impact from exchange rate due to depreciation of RMB against US dollars, compared with that of
the same period of last year.
4
As
for the RMB selling price, the decrease of 5.3% was mainly due to the lower demand of higher selling priced products of touchscreen machines
in the PRC domestic market, including the decreased average RMB selling price of 25.5% in medical touchscreens and 1.2% in industrial
control computer touchscreens during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.
Due
to our proactive efforts to market new models and efforts to obtain new customers and penetrate into new regions, our sales increased
by 19.7% in South China, and 18.4% in East China, partially offset by a decrease of 1.5% in Southwest China during the three months ended
March 31, 2025.
(ii)
Overseas Market
For
the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, revenues from the overseas market were $5.0 million as compared to $5.5 million of the same
period of 2024, representing a decrease by $0.6 million, or 10.9%, mainly due to an decrease of 9.9% in average selling price in RMB
due to the lower demand on touchscreen machines in medical touchscreens, industrial control computer touchscreens, and automotive touchscreens,
and 1.2% negative impact from exchange rate due to depreciation of RMB against US dollars, partially offset by the increase of 1.8% in
sales volume due to increased sales in industrial control computer touch screens and gaming touchscreens,

The
Company continued to shift production mix from traditional lower-end products to high-end products such as industrial control computer
touchscreens POS touchscreens, gaming touchscreens, and multi-functional printer touchscreens, primarily due to (i) greater growth potential
of computer screen models in China and overseas market, and (ii) the stronger demand on higher-end touch screens made with better materials
and better quality.

As
a result of the above factors, we had a net income of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to a net income of $0.6 million
in the same quarter of 2024.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Historically, our primary
uses of cash have been to finance working capital needs. We expect to be able to meet our needs to fund operations, capital expenditures,
and other commitments over the next 12 months primarily with our cash and cash equivalents, operating cash flows and bank borrowings.
However, we may require additional
cash resources due to changes in business conditions or other future developments. If these sources prove insufficient to meet our cash
requirements, we may seek to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or debt securities or by obtaining a credit facility. Any
issuance of additional equity or equity-linked securities could dilute the ownership interests of existing shareholders, while the incurrence
of additional indebtedness would increase our debt service obligations and could subject us to operating and financial covenants that
may restrict our business activities. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in the necessary amounts, on terms acceptable
to us, or at all.
As
of March 31, 2025, we had current assets of $119.8 million, consisting of $106.4 million in cash, $11.1 million in accounts receivable,
$0.1 million in inventories, and $2.2 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets Our current liabilities as of March 31, 2025
were $5.4 million, which is comprised of $1.6 million in accounts payable, $0.4 million in amounts due to a related party, $1.3 million
in income tax payable, $1.6 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. and $0.6 million in operating lease liabilities,
current portion. We also had $0.4 million in operating lease liabilities, non- current as of March 31, 2025.

Operating
Activities
Net
cash provided by operating activities was $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to net cash used in operating
activities of $9.2 million for the same period of the last year.
The
positive cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily due to i) $2.5 million net income, ii) the decrease of $0.5
million in prepaid expenses and current assets, iii) the increase of in $0.3 million accounts payable, $0.3 million due to a related
party, $1.3 million in tax payable and $0.6 million in accrued expenses and current liabilities, partially offset by iv) the increase
of $3.5 million in accounts receivable.
The
negative cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to i) increase of $3.6 million in accounts receivable,
$3.4 million in prepaid expenses and current assets, ii) the decrease of $3.4 million in accrued expenses and current liabilities, partially
offset by iii) net income of $0.6 million and iv) the increase of $0.6 million in income tax payable.
Investing
Activities
There
was no cash flow in investing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.
Net
cash used in investing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 was $0.1 million for the purchase of property, plant
and equipment.
Financing
Activities
There
was no cash flow in investing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.
Net
cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 21, 2024 was $7.5 million, including $9.0 million in net proceeds
from the 2024 Public Offering, partially offset by $1.4 million repayment of convertible promissory notes, and $82,864 repayment of interest-free
advances to a third party.
As
of March 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were $106.4 million, as compared to $103.7 million at December 31, 2024.

activities will satisfy our working capital needs, capital expenditures and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations
for at least the next 12 months.

Critical
Accounting Policies
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP and the Company’s discussion and analysis of
its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that
affect the amounts reported. Note 2, “SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of
the 2024 Form 10-K describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed
consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates since the
2024 Form 10-K.

4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our “Certifying
Officers”), we 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 March 31, 2025. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025, as a result of the material weakness identified
below.
9
In
light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared
in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Based on such analysis and notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this
Quarterly Report fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the
periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed,
have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect
to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material
misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent
limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to
reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Material
Weakness
In
connection with the audit of the financial year ended December 31, 2024, we identified certain control deficiencies in the design and
operation of our internal controls over our financial reporting that constituted a material weakness in aggregation. A “material
weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis.
The
material weaknesses related to internal control over financial reporting that was identified during the annual report of 2024 and still
applied as of March 31, 2025 were:
● Lack
of competent financial reporting and accounting personnel with appropriate understanding
of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting requirements to design and implement key controls
over financial reporting process;
● Lack of risk assessment procedures on internal controls to detect financial
reporting risks in a timely manner.
Management
believes that the material weaknesses that were identified did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes
that these weaknesses, if not properly remediated, could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed,
have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect
to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material
misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent
limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to
reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
10
Management’s
Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness
Management
has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness
are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions planned include:
● Identify
gaps in the Company’s skills base and the expertise of its staff required to meet the
financial reporting requirements of a public company; and
● Continue to cooperate with operation teams to ensure a control environment
in place, and monitor the effectiveness of operations on existing controls and procedures.
● Establish procedures to assess compliance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (the “ Sarbanes-Oxley Act ”) and improve overall internal control.
During
the first quarter of 2025, the management has not addressed the material weaknesses on internal control and will continue to implement
the above improvement plans to ensure our financial reporting in compliance with US GAAP and SEC filing requirements.
The
Company recognizes that the material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until
the remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and can be tested and concluded by management to be designed and operating
effectively. Because the Company’s remediation efforts are ongoing, it cannot provide any assurance that these remediation efforts
will be successful or that its internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts.
The
Company will continue to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting related to the identified material
weaknesses, and management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation
plan described above. The Company will report the progress and status of the above remediation efforts to the Audit Committee on a periodic
basis.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As
described above, the Company is taking steps to remediate the material weakness noted above. Other than in connection with these remediation
steps, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
