ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (Continued)

History of the Group and reorganization under identical common ownership

The Group’s history began in June 2014 with the commencement of operations of Beijing Rongke, as a limited liability company in PRC incorporated by Mr. Tianhua, Wu, Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”). From December 2014 to January 2017, after the incorporation of the Beijing Rongke, series Angel, A, B, B+ investors (collectively, the “equity investors”) each acquired certain equity interest with preferential rights of Beijing Rongke.

In June 2018, the Company undertook a series of reorganization transactions to re-domicile its business from the PRC to the Cayman Islands (the “Re-domiciliation”). The main purpose of the Re-domiciliation was to establish a Cayman holding company for the existing business in preparation for its overseas initial public offering. At the same shareholding percentages and the rights of each shareholder were substantially the same in Beijing Rongke and the Company, the Re-domiciliation was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common ownership. As a result, Beijing Rongke’s historical financial information was consolidated in the consolidated financial statements of the Group since the beginning of the periods presented.

The VIE arrangements

To provide the Company control over the VIEs and the rights to the expected residual returns of the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries, on June 7, 2018, Beijing WFOE I, entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Beijing Rongke and its equity investors, which were amended and restated on December 17, 2018 and October 11, 2022, respectively and was terminated on November 1, 2023. On the same date of such termination, the Beijing WFOE I, entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Beijing Rongke and its then shareholders. On October 30, 2018, Beijing WFOE II entered into a series of substantially same contractual arrangements with Beijing Yiyi.

As a result of entering into these contractual agreements, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Beijing WFOE I and Beijing WFOE II (the “WFOEs”), has (1) power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly affect the entities’ economic performance and (2) the right to receive economic benefits of the VIEs that could be significant to the VIEs. Accordingly, The Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIEs and consolidate the VIEs’ financial results of operations, assets, and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company also believes that this ability to exercise control ensures that the VIEs will continue to execute and renew the exclusive business cooperation agreements and pay service fees to the Company. The ability to charge service fees in amounts determined at the Company’s sole discretion, and by ensuring that the exclusive business cooperation agreements are executed and renewed indefinitely, the Company has the right to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from the VIEs.

Agreements that were entered to provide the Company effective control over the VIEs

Exclusive Option Agreements. The respective equity investors of the VIEs entered into Exclusive Option Agreements with the WFOEs respectively, pursuant to which the equity investors of the VIEs grant the WFOEs an irrevocable and exclusive right to purchase or designate one or more persons to purchase the equity interests in the VIEs then held by the equity investors of the VIEs once or at multiple times at any time in part or in whole at the WFOEs’ sole and absolute discretion to the extent permitted by PRC laws. The standard equity interest purchase price is US$1.5 (RMB10). If a minimum price limited by PRC law applicable is more than US$1.5 (RMB10), the purchase price of the equity interest shall equal such minimum price. The agreement shall remain effective for a term of ten years and renewable at the WFOEs’ election.

ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (Continued)

The VIE arrangements (Continued)

Powers of Attorney. The equity investors of the VIEs signed the irrevocable Powers of Attorney to appoint the WFOEs as the attorney-in-fact to act on the equity investors’ behalf on all rights that the equity investors have in respect of their equity interest in the VIEs conferred by relevant laws and regulations and the articles of association of the VIEs. The rights include but not limited to attending shareholders meeting, exercising voting rights, designating and appointing on behalf of the equity investors, the legal representative (chairperson), the director, supervisor, the chief executive officer and other senior management members of the VIEs. Powers of attorney are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and continuously valid from the date of execution of the Powers of Attorney.

Spousal Consent letters. The spouse of each married equity investors of the VIEs has signed a spousal consent letter, which unconditionally and irrevocably agreed not to assert any rights over the equity interest in the VIEs held by and registered in the name of their spouse. In addition, in the event that the spouse obtains any equity interest in the VIEs for any reason, they agreed to be bound by the contractual arrangements.

Commitment letters. The respective equity investors of the VIEs entered into Commitment letters with the WFOEs respectively. The equity investors of the VIEs undertake that, when exercising their options, they will refund, without any conditions, any amount and fees to the WFOEs which exceed the share purchase price provided in the Exclusive Option Agreements.

Agreements that were entered to transfer economic benefits to the Company

Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements. The WFOEs entered into Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements with the VIEs and their equity investors. Under the agreements, VIEs agree to appoint the WFOEs as their exclusive services provider to provide the business support, technical and consulting services at a determined price. The WFOEs shall have exclusive and proprietary rights and interests in all rights, ownership, interests and intellectual properties arising out of or created during the performance of the agreement. The annual service fee should not be less than 99% of VIEs’ total net profit and could be decided and adjusted by the WFOEs. The service agreements shall remain effective for ten years. The WFOEs has the right to unilaterally extend the agreement and the VIEs shall accept the extended term unconditionally.

Equity Pledge Agreements. The equity investors of the VIEs entered into Equity Pledge Agreements with the WFOEs, under which the equity investors pledged all of the equity interest in the VIEs to the WFOEs to ensure that the WFOEs collect all payments due by the VIEs, including without limitation the consulting and service fees regularly from the VIEs under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements. The WFOEs shall have the right to collect dividends generated by the equity interest during the term of pledge. If any event of default, the WFOEs, as the pledgee, will be entitled to take possession of the equity interest pledged and to dispose of the pledged equity interest. The Equity Pledge Agreements remain continuously valid until all payments due under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements have been fulfilled by the VIEs.

Risks in relation to the VIE structure

The Company believes that the WFOEs’ contractual arrangements with the VIEs and their respective subsidiaries are in compliance with PRC laws and are legally enforceable. The equity investors of the VIEs are also major shareholders of the Company and therefore have no current interest in seeking to act contrary to the contractual arrangements. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements and if the shareholders were to reduce their interest in the Company, their interests may diverge from that of the Company and that may potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the contractual terms, for example by influencing the VIEs not to pay the service fees when required to do so.

ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (Continued)

Risks in relation to the VIE structure (Continued)

The Company’s ability to control the VIEs also depends on the Powers of attorney. The WFOEs have to vote on all matters requiring shareholders’ approval in the VIEs. As noted above, the Company believes this Powers of attorney is legally enforceable but may not be as effective as direct equity ownership.

The shareholders are required to complete the registration of the equity pledge under the agreements with competent government authorities. In case any of the shareholders is in breach, the WFOEs will be entitled to certain right, including the right to dispose the pledged equity interest and to receive proceeds from the auction or sale of the pledge equity interests. The Company has completed the registration of the equity pledges relating to the VIEs with the local government authorities.

In addition, if the legal structure and contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of any existing PRC laws and regulations, the PRC regulatory authorities could:

revoke the Group’s business and operating licenses;
require the Group to discontinue or restrict its operations;
restrict the Group’s right to collect revenues;
restrict or prohibit the Group to finance its business and operations in China;
require the Group to restructure the operations;
impose additional conditions or requirements with which the Group might not be able to comply, levy fines, confiscate the Group’s income or the income of its PRC subsidiary or affiliated PRC entities; or
take other regulatory or enforcement actions against the Group that could be harmful to its business.

The imposition of any of these penalties could result in a material adverse effect on the Group’s ability to conduct the Group’s business. In addition, if the imposition of any of these penalties causes the Group to lose the rights to direct the activities of the VIEs, VIEs’ subsidiaries, or the right to receive their economic benefits, the Group would no longer be able to consolidate the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries. The Group does not believe that any penalties imposed or actions taken by the PRC government would result in the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the WFOEs, the VIEs and their respective subsidiaries.

There are no consolidated VIEs’ assets that are collateralized for the VIEs’ obligations and can only be used to settle the VIEs’ obligations. There are no creditors (or beneficial interest holders) of the VIEs that have recourse to the general credit of the Company or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. There are no terms in any arrangements, considering both explicit arrangements and implicit variable interests that require the Company or its subsidiaries to provide financial support to the VIEs. However, if the VIEs ever need financial support, the Company or its subsidiaries may, at its option and subject to statutory limits and restrictions, provide financial support to its VIEs through loans to the shareholders of the VIEs or entrustment loans to the VIEs.

Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the VIEs from transferring a portion of their net assets, equivalent to the balance of their statutory reserve and their share capital, to the Company in the form of loans and advances or cash dividends.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation and principle of consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include the financial statements of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, its VIEs and the VIEs’ subsidiaries. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

Redeemable non-controlling interests

Redeemable non-controlling interests represent preferred shares financing by a consolidated VIE’s subsidiary of the Group from preferred shareholders. As the preferred shares could be redeemed by such shareholders upon the occurrence of certain events that are not solely within the control of the Group, these preferred shares are accounted for as redeemable non-controlling interests. The Group accounts for the changes in accretion to the redemption value in accordance with ASC topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and recorded accretions on the preferred shares to the redemption value from the issuance dates to the earliest redemption dates.

Concentration of credit risk

The Group’s exposure to credit risk associated with its trading and other activities is measured on an individual counterparty basis, as well as by groups of counterparties that share similar attributes. Concentrations of credit risk can be affected by changes in political, industry, or economic factors. To reduce the potential for risk concentration, credit limits are established and exposure is monitored in light of changing counterparty and market conditions. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Group did not have any material concentrations of credit risk outside the ordinary course of business.

Concentration of revenue

There is no customer accounting for 10% or more of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Concentration of supplier

The Group relies on third parties for the execution and clearing of trade requests made by customers. In instances where these parties fail to perform their obligations, the Group may be temporarily unable to find alternative suppliers to satisfactorily deliver services to its customers in a timely manner, if at all.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, 17.3% and 11.5% of its total net revenues were executed and cleared by one supplier.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of various FASB topics in the Codification. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Group does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures introducing key amendments to enhance disclosures in public entities reportable segments. Notable changes include the mandatory disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), disclosure of other segment items, and requirements for consistency in reporting measures used by the CODM. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Group is currently assessing the impact to its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Group is currently assessing the impact to its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements: Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements. ASU No. 2024-02 contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various Concepts Statements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

RECEIVABLES FROM CUSTOMERS

Receivables from customers include the margin loans extended to consolidated accounts customers by the Group. Securities owned by the customers, which are not recorded in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, are held as collateral for amounts due on the loan receivables. Receivables from customers are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Revenues earned from the margin loan transactions are included in interest income. The amounts receivable from customers that are determined by management to be uncollectible when the fair value of the collaterals fall under the carrying value of the receivables are recorded as bad debt expense in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

For six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, US$156,331 and US$13,878,954 of allowance for doubtful accounts were recorded, respectively.

The table below presents the movement of allowance for doubtful accounts from customers for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024.
