1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Aixin Life International, Inc. (the “Company” or “Aixin” or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 30, 1987 under the name Mercari Communications Group, Ltd (“Mercari”). From 1988 until early 1990, Mercari provided educational products, counseling, seminar programs, and publications such as newsletters to adults aged 30 to 50. Mercari registered its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Exchange Act in 1988. Mercari’s business failed in 1990. Mercari conducted no operating activities from June 1, 1990 to August 31, 2001 and was considered dormant.

During 2001, Mercari was reactivated. From November 30, 2001 to March 1, 2004, Mercari was in the development stage.

On November 9, 2009, Mercari entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Algodon Wines & Luxury Development Group, Inc. or “Algodon” (formerly Diversified Private Equity Corporation or “DPEC”), a then privately-held Delaware corporation, and Kanouff, LLC (“KLLC”) and Underwood Family Partners, Ltd. (the “Partnership”), of which KLLC and the Partnership were the majority shareholders of the Company (the “Stock Purchase”). In connection with the Stock Purchase, Algodon purchased and the Company sold, 43,822,001 shares of common stock for $43,822, or $0.001 per share. In addition, Algodon purchased 200 shares of common stock from KLLC and 200 shares of common stock from the Partnership for $180,000 payable to each selling shareholder. Immediately following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, Algodon owned 43,822,401 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 96.5% of our outstanding shares.

During each year since Mercari was reactivated, the Company had no revenue and had losses approximately equal to the expenditures required to reactivate and comply with filing and reporting obligations. Expenditures were paid by Mercari from capital contributions and loans made by Mercari’s principal stockholders and entities controlled by Mercari’s directors.

On January 20, 2017, Algodon sold 43,822,401 shares of the Company’s common stock which it owned, approximately 96.5% of the Company’s outstanding shares, to China Concentric, for $260,000, and assigned its right to the repayment of $150,087 of non-interest bearing advances to the Company for working capital as the Company’s controlling stockholder, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated December 20, 2016, as amended. Prior to entering into the Stock Purchase Agreement with Algodon, neither China Concentric nor any of its affiliates had any relationship to the Company, Algodon or any of their respective affiliates.

On February 2, 2017, Mr. Quanzhong Lin purchased 29,521,410 shares of the Company’s common stock, approximately 65% of its outstanding shares of common stock, from China Concentric for $300,000, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated December 21, 2016, which resulted in a change in control of the company. The 29,521,410 shares are still being transferred from China Concentric to Mr. Lin.

On December 12, 2017, the Company issued 227,352,604 shares of common stock to Mr. Lin, the sole stockholder of AiXin (BVI) International Group Co., Ltd. a British Virgin Islands corporation (“AiXin BVI”), for his shares of AiXin BVI, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement. Mr. Lin now owns 256,874,014 shares of the Company’s common stock, approximately 80.8% of its outstanding shares.

As a result of the Share Exchange, AiXin BVI became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, and the Company now owns all of the outstanding shares of HK AiXin International Group Co., Limited, a Hong Kong limited company (“AiXin HK”), which in turn owns all of the outstanding shares of Chengdu AiXinZhonghong Biological Technology Co., Ltd., a Chinese limited company (“AiXinZhonghong”), which markets and sells premium-quality nutritional productsin China.

AiXin BVI was incorporated on September 21, 2017 to serve as a holding company and AiXin HK was established in Hong Kong on February 25, 2016 to serve as an intermediate holding company. AiXin Zhonghong was established in the PRC on March 4, 2013, and on May 27, 2017, the local government of the PRC issued a certificate of approval regarding the foreign ownership of AiXin Zhonghong by AiXin HK. Neither AiXin BVI nor AiXin HK had operations prior to December 12, 2017.

For accounting purposes, the acquisition was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and treated as a recapitalization of Mercari effected by a share exchange, with AiXin BVI as the accounting acquirer. Since neither AiXin BVI nor AiXin HK had operations prior to December 12, 2017, the historical CFS of AiXin Zhonghong are now the historical CFS of the Company. The assets and liabilities of AiXin Zhonghong have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.

Effective February 1, 2018, pursuant to Articles of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of Colorado, the Company changed its name to AiXin Life International., Inc.

The Company, through AiXin Zhonghong, its indirectly owned subsidiary, mainly distributes consumer products by offering a line of nutritional products. The Company sells the products through exhibition events, conferences, as well as person-to-person marketing. During 2018, the Company’s revenue was primarily generated from sales of products, which include Oleesa Milk Powder, gland element, mattress???, and other nutritional supplements. The Company’s business mainly focuses on a proactive approach to its customers such as hosting events for clients, which it believes is ideally suited to marketing its products because sales of nutrition products are strengthened by ongoing personal contact and support, coaching and education of its clients, as to the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements (“CFS’) are prepared in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). The functional currency of Aixin is Chinese Renminbi (‘‘RMB’’). The accompanying CFS are translated from RMB and presented in U.S. dollars (“USD”).

The CFS includes the accounts of the Company and its current wholly owned subsidiaries, AiXin HK and AiXin Zhonghong. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

The Company incurred net losses of approximately $418,000 and $249,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company also had a stockholders’ deficit of $3.6million as of March 31, 2018.These conditions raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to increase its income by improving communications with suppliers to ensure sufficient and quality products supply, building a competitive and efficient sales force, providing an attractive sales incentive program, increasing marketing and promotion activities, and minimizing operating costs. The Company’s majority shareholder, Quanzhong Lin, plans to invest additional RMB 10 million ($1,500,000) into the Company by the end of July 2018 to help the Company’s working capital needs. As of July 10, 2018, the Company has received RMB 1 Million. The CFS do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Use of Estimates

In preparing CFS in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the CFS, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Significant estimates, required by management, include the recoverability of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and the reserve for obsolete and slow-moving inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Equivalents

For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s policy is to maintain an allowance for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. During the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, bad debt expense was $4,987 and $27,699, respectively. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the bad debt allowance was $30,426 and $24,524, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory mainly consists of health supplement products. Inventory is valued at the lower of average cost or market, cost being determined on a moving weighted average method at the end of the month. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down their inventories to market value, if lower. The Company recorded no inventory impairment for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330) - Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” which requires that inventory within the scope of the guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and impairment losses, if any. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the period benefited. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with 5% salvage value and estimated lives as follows:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, but at least annually.

Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by it. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value (“FV”). FV is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited), there was no significant impairments of its long-lived assets.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates, applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, which prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures.

Under ASC Topic 740, when tax returns are filed, it is likely that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the CFS in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statement of income.

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited), the Company did not take any uncertain positions that would necessitate recording a tax related liability.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies comply with FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”. Sales are recognized when a formal arrangement exists; the price is fixed or determinable; title has passed to the buyer, which generally is at the time of delivery of the products or services; no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.

Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products sold in China are subject to the PRC VAT of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials purchased in China. The Company records VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the CFS. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government.

The Company’s sales policy allows for the return of unopened products for cash after deducting certain service and transaction fees. As alternatives for the product return option, the customers have options of asking an exchange of the products with same value. The amount for return of products was immaterial for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue (“COR”) consists primarily of cost of purchasing inventory. Write-down of inventory to lower of cost or market is also recorded in COR.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The operations of the Company are in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company has cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. Cash in state-owned banks is covered by insurance up to RMB 500,000 ($72,500) per bank. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes they are not exposed to any risks on their cash in these bank accounts.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based on the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Fair Value (“FV”) of Financial Instruments

Certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, accrued liabilities and accounts payable, carrying amounts approximate their FV due to their short maturities. FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the FV of financial instruments held by the Company. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their FV because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and the current market rate of interest.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines FV, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of FV measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for FV measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited), the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at FV.

Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The functional currency of the Company is RMB. For financial reporting purposes, RMB is translated into USD as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period.

Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders’ equity as “Accumulated other comprehensive income”. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There was no significant fluctuation in the exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.

The Company uses FASB ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”. Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. Comprehensive loss for the first quarter of 2018 and 2017consisted of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Earnings per Share

Basic loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.

Diluted loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted loss per share are excluded from the calculation.

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for options and warrants. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

As of March 31, 2018 and 2017 and for the periods then ended, the Company did not have any potentially dilutive instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company periodically grants stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions as compensation for services rendered. The Company accounts for stock option and stock warrant grants to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the FASB where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and stock warrant grants to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock compensation is determined based upon the measurement date at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option or warrant grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company’s board of directors (“BOD”) authorized the issuance of 45,224,085 shares of common stock to three individuals for services rendered to the Company. The stock-based compensation was valued at $3,617,927 based on the Company’s stock price at the date of agreement and was vested immediately for services already rendered. On January 15, 2018, the Company’s BOD determined that it is not in the Company’s best interests to issue any shares to two of the three individuals because BOD believes the two individuals did not perform the services as expected. The two individuals and the Company have not yet reached any agreement regarding this matter.

Segment Reporting

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s chief operating decision maker organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions assessing performance and allocating resources. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

Management determined the Company’s operations constitute a single reportable segment in accordance with ASC 280. The Company operates exclusively in one business and industry segment: sale of health supplement products.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 - Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Codification. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue versus Net). In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of ASU 2014-09 and 2014-16, and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. These ASUs clarify the implementation guidance on a few narrow areas and adds some practical expedients to the guidance Topic 606. The Company is evaluating the effect that these ASUs will have on its CFS.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application is permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on its CFS.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 clarifies the presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard does not have any material impact on the Company’s CFS.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The standard should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The adoption of this standard does not have any material impact on the Company’s CFS.

3. DEFERRED COMMISSION

The Company paid commission to its salesmen based on cash collected from sales. The Company calculated and paid commissions based on certain proportion of monthly cash receipts from sales; however, the customers sometimes delayed taking delivery of the products after payment was made to the Company, which is recorded as unearned revenue. Accordingly, the Company only recognizes current commission cost as the related revenue is recognized. Commission expenses are recorded as selling expenses. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited), the Company had deferred commissions of $422,536 and $422,594 respectively.

4. DEFERRED TRAVEL COST

As part of the Company’s sales incentive program, the Company occasionally provided free travel to its customers whose prepayment to purchase the Company’s products reached a certain amount. There are different travel incentives offered to customers based on amounts received from each customer. The Company records to-be-provided free travel cost when cash is collected from customers as deferred travel cost with corresponding account of accrued travel cost, and records net of sales once the prepayment from customers is recognized as revenue. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had deferred travel cost of $274,553 and $277,261, respectively.

Depreciation for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $43,048 and $53,174, respectively.

Other payables mainly consisted of payables for employees’ social insurance and disabled employment security fund of $265,635and commission payable of $114,870 at March 31, 2018; and payables of employees’ social insurance and disabled employment security fund of $242,075 and commission payable of $103,736 at December 31, 2017, respectively.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Advance from a Shareholder

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited), the Company had advance from a major shareholder of $1,220,923 and $988,380, respectively. The advance was payable on demand, and bore no interest.

Office lease from a Major Shareholder

In May 2014, the Company entered a lease with its major shareholder for use of an office; the lease term was three years until May 2017 with an option to renew. The monthly rent was RMB 5,000 ($721), the Company was required to prepay each year’s annual rent at 15th of May of each year. The Company renewed the lease in May 2017 for another three years until May 28, 2020 with monthly rents of RMB 5,000 ($721), payable quarterly. The future annual minimum lease payment at March 31, 2018 is $8,652 for the period ended March 31, 2019, $8,652 for period ending March 31, 2020 and $1,442 for the period ending March 31, 2021.

10. INCOME TAXES

The Company was incorporated in the United States of America (“USA”) and has operations in one tax jurisdiction, i.e. the PRC. The Company generated substantially all of its net income from its operations in the PRC for the quarters ended March31, 2018 and 2017, and has recorded income tax provision for the periods.

China has a uniform tax rate of 25% for all enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises). However, the Company enjoys 10% preferential income tax rate for taxable income of RMB 0.5 million ($72,000) or less with a ‘Small Business’ status.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as income tax, and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. For the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties expenses. Currently, the Company is not subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.

12. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock at $0.001 par value and 950,000,000 shares of common stock at $.00001 par value per share. At March31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited),the Company had 317,988,089 shares issued and outstanding, respectively. Upon the Aixin reverse acquisition, the number of issued and outstanding shares was retroactively adjusted to reflect the recapitalization.

13. STATUTORY RESERVES

Pursuant to the PRC corporate law, the Company is now only required to maintain one statutory reserve by appropriating from its after-tax profit before declaration or payment of dividends. The statutory reserve represents restricted retained earnings.

Surplus reserve fund

The Company is now required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital.

The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

Common welfare fund

Common welfare fund is a voluntary fund that the Company can elect to transfer 5% to 10% of its net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to this fund. The Company did not make any contribution to this fund during the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

This fund can only be utilized on capital items for the collective benefit of the Company’s employees, such as construction of dormitories, cafeteria facilities, and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is non-distributable other than upon liquidation.

14. OPERATING RISKS

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

The Company’s sales, purchases and expenses are denominated in RMB and all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are also denominated in RMB. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies under the current law. In China, foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions. Remittances in currencies other than RMB may require certain supporting documentation to effect the remittance.
