Revenues

 

We generated $68,454 in revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2024, representing an increase of $68,454 or 100.00%, as compared with nil for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the strategic shift of the Company’s business. The Company disposed the nutraceutical and dietary supplement, e-commerce business during the six months ended September 30, 2023, then disposed the automobiles sales business in July 2024. The revenue generated from the nutraceutical and dietary supplement, e-commerce and automobile sales was reclassified into the net income (loss) from discontinued operations account.

 

The Company has gradually shifted its focus towards the development of AI-powered applications.

 

Cost of Revenue 

 

Cost of revenue increased by $59,178 or 100.00%, from nil for the six months ended September 30, 2023 to $59,178 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Gross margin was 13.55% for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The gross profit of the nutraceutical and dietary supplement, e-commerce and automobile sales was reclassified into the net income (loss) from discontinued operations account.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

The selling expenses increased by $4,021, or 5,026.25%, from $80 for the six months ended September 30, 2023 to $4,101 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily because the Company invested more cash in social media and press release to attract new potential customers through different platforms such as Tiktok, streaming advertising and etc., and promote its new business of entertainment and AI powered entertainment.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

The general and administrative expenses decreased from $1,228,997 for the six months ended September 30, 2023 to $1,161,912 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease of $0.07 million, or 5.46%. The decrease was mainly to the reduction of the service expenses of legal fee, financial advisory fee and etc.

 

Interest Expense

 

We had approximately $113,185 interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to nil in for the six months ended September 30, 2023. The Company entered into five agreements to borrow an aggregate loan of $3.16 million with a fixed interest rate from 4.62 to 8% on the date of drawing per annum.

 

Net loss from continuing operations

 

As a result of the foregoing, net loss amounted to $1,292,423 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net loss of $1,229,819 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, representing an increase of $0.06 million, or 5.09%. We had gradually optimized and made the strategy shift to avoid further losses.

 

Net income (loss) from discontinued operations

 

On July 5, 2024, the Company sold all of the equity interests of Happiness Hong Kong with its automobile sales business for approximately HK$10,000 as consideration.

 

From July 7, 2024, the Company no longer retained any financial interest over automobile sales business and accordingly deconsolidated this business’ financial statements from the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accordingly deconsolidated automobile sales business’ financial statements from the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The disposal of automobile sales business represented a strategic shift and has a major effect on the Company’s result of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2024.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

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 valuation of accounts receivable and related allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, inventory reserve, goodwill impairment, income taxes related to realization of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax position, provisions necessary for contingent liabilities and contingent consideration. The current economic environment has increased the degrees of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

 

The unaudited financial information set forth above is subject to adjustments that may be identified when audit work is performed on the Company’s year-end financial statements, which could result in significant differences from this unaudited financial information.
