CHINA UNITED INSURANCE SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Amount in USD)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

China United Insurance Service, Inc. (“China United” or “CUII”), its subsidiaries and variable-interest entities (collectively referred to herein as the “Company”) primarily engage in insurance brokerage and insurance agency services. The Company markets and sells to customers two broad categories of insurance products: life insurance products and property and casualty insurance products, both focused on meeting the particular insurance needs of individuals. The insurance products are underwritten by some of the leading insurance companies in Taiwan and China. The Company manages its business through aggregating them into three geographic operating segments, Taiwan, the PRC, and Hong Kong. The Company’s common stock currently trades over the counter under the ticker symbol “CUII” on the OTCQB.

The corporate structure as of June 30, 2021 is as follows:

GRAPHIC

Note 1: Prime Asia Co., Limited is in process of liquidation.

Note 2: The board of directors has made resolution to sell Jiangsu Law Insurance Brokers Co., Limited. As of August 16, 2021, the company has touched base with potential buyers but yet to sign any purchase agreement.

10

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China United, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities as shown in the corporate structure in Note 1. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for prior year to the current year’s presentation. Such reclassifications have no effect on net income and the cash flow statements operating activities as previously reported.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020, which were included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2020 Form 10-K”). The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable includes commission receivables stated at net realizable values. The Company reviews its accounts receivable regularly to determine if a bad debt allowance is necessary at each quarter-end. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes the age of receivables outstanding, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the necessity of making such allowance. No allowance was deemed necessary as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Foreign Currency Transactions

China United’s financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars ($), which is the China United’s reporting and functional currency. The functional currencies of the China United’s subsidiaries are New Taiwan dollar (“NTD”), China yuan (“RMB”) and Hong Kong dollar (“HKD”). The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign currency transactions are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss).

11

The Company translates the assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of operations and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation from NTD, RMB and HKD into U.S. dollars are recorded in stockholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The exchange rates used for condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to the common shareholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as basic EPS, except the number of shares includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued.

As the holders of preferred stock of the Company are entitled to share equally with the holders of common stock, on a per share basis, in such dividends and other distributions of cash, property or shares of stock of the Company as may be declared by the board of directors, the preferred stock is treated as a participating security. When calculating the basic earnings per common share, the two-class method is used to allocate earnings to common stock and participating security as required by FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company does not have any potentially dilutive instrument.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value accounting establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

-

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

-Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

-Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The carrying amounts of current financial assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets for time deposits, approximate fair value due to the short-term duration of those instruments.

Marketable securities and long-term investments in REITs – The fair values of mutual funds and REITs were valued based on quoted market prices in active markets.

Government bonds – The fair value of government bonds is valued based on theoretical bond price in the Taipei Exchange.  

According to Taiwan Regulations Governing Deposit of Bond and Acquirement of Insurance by Insurance Agents, Insurance Brokers and Insurance Surveyors (“RGDBAI”) Article 3 and 4, Law Broker is required to maintain a minimum of NTD 3,000,000 ($107,601 and $106,848 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively) restricted balance in a separate account or government bonds issued by the central government in order to maintain its insurance license. The government bonds matured on March 17, 2021 and the amortized cost of the bonds was nil and $106,906 (NTD 3,001,620) as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company will purchase a similar investment after the maturity of the bonds to maintain the insurance license.

Concentration of Risk

The Company maintains cash with banks in the USA, People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Should any bank holding the Company’s cash become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose all or part of its cash deposit with that bank; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. In Taiwan, a depositor has up to NTD3,000,000 insured by Central Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”). In China, a depositor has up to RMB500,000 insured by the People’s Bank of China Financial Stability Bureau (“FSD”). In Hong Kong, a depositor has up to HKD500,000 insured by Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board (“DPB”). In the United States, the standard insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor in a bank insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).

13

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, time deposits, restricted cash, register capital deposit and accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximately $2,606,000 and $2,229,000 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, time deposits, and registered capital deposits held by financial institutions, was insured, and the remaining balance of approximately $78,430,000 and 63,222,000, was not insured. With respect to accounts receivable, the Company generally does not require collateral and does not have an allowance for doubtful accounts.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s revenues from sale of insurance policies underwritten by these companies were:

The Company’s operations are in the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, foreign currency exchange and legal environments in the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and by the state of each economy. The Company’s results of operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation cost in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation after adoption of ASC 2018-07, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of equity-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all share-based compensation payments granted to employees and nonemployees, net of estimated forfeitures, over the employees requisite service period or the non-employee performance period based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Compensation costs for awards granted to nonemployees under Uniwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 both were nil, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were nil and $980,466, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company records income tax expense using the asset-and-liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred 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 year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

When tax returns are filed, it is likely 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 financial statements 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 are classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss).

New Accounting Pronouncements and Other Guidance

New Accounting Pronouncements Effective January 1, 2021:

Income Tax

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard in the beginning of January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have any significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity Securities, Equity-method Investments and Certain Derivatives

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)-Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. The guidance provides clarification of the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. ASU 2020-01 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2021. The adoption did not have any significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

15

Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted:

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, (FASB ASC Topic 326), Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which amends the current accounting guidance and requires the use of the new forward-looking “expected loss” model, rather than the “incurred loss” model, which requires all expected losses to be determined based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance amends the accounting for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments including trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 to postpone the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for public business entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies defined by the SEC to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company believes the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 will not have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The standard provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions in which the reference LIBOR or another reference rate are expected to be discontinued as a result of the Reference Rate Reform. The standard is effective for all entities. The standard may be adopted as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the effects of the standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Convertible Debt, and Derivatives and Hedging

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity, to improve financial reporting associated with accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity's own equity. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the amended guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The management does not believe that other than disclosed above, accounting pronouncements the recently issued but not yet adopted will have a material impact on its financial position results of operations or cash flows.

The original term of the Alliance Agreement was from June 1, 2013 to May 31, 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the Alliance Agreement, AIATW paid AHFL an execution fee of approximately $8,326,700 (NTD250,000,000, including the tax of NTD11,904,762, the “Execution Fee”), which is to be recorded as revenue upon fulfilling sales targets and the 13-month persistency ratio, as defined, over the next five years. The Execution Fee may be required to be recalculated if certain performance targets are not met by AHFL.

On September 30, 2014, AHFL entered into a Strategic Alliance Supplemental Agreement (the “First Amendment to the Alliance Agreement”) with AIATW. In the First Amendment to the Alliance Agreement, the performance targets and the provision about refunding the Execution Fee on a pro rata basis when the performance targets are not met were revised.

On January 6, 2016, AHFL entered into an Amendment No. 2 to the Alliance Agreement (the “Second Amendment to the Alliance Agreement”) with AIATW to further revise certain provisions in the Strategic Alliance Agreement and the previous amendment entered into by and between AHFL and AIATW. To the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, AHFL shall assist and encourage any insurance agency company or insurance brokerage company duly approved by the competent government authorities of Taiwan (the “Appointed Broker/Agent”), to cooperate with AIATW for the promotion of life insurance products of AIATW. Pursuant to the Second Amendment to the Alliance Agreement, the expiration date of the Strategic Alliance Agreement was extended from May 31, 2018 to December 31, 2021, and the effect of the Alliance Agreement during the period from October 1, 2014 to December 31, 2015 was suspended. In addition, both AHFL and AIATW agreed to adjust certain terms and conditions set forth in the Alliance Agreement, some of which are as follows: (i) expanding the scope of services to be provided by AHFL to AIATW to include, without limitation, assessment and advice on suitability of cooperative partners, advice on product strategies suitable for promotion channel development, advice on promotion/sales channel improvement, advice on promotion channel marketing and strategic planning, and promotion channel talent training; and (ii) removing certain provisions related to performance milestones and refund of Execution Fees. On March 15, 2016, AHFL issued a promise letter (the “2016 Letter”) to AIATW that AHFL is required to (i) fulfill sales targets and (ii) the 13-month persistency ratio.

On June 14, 2017, with AIATW’s consent, the 2016 Letter was revoked in order to conform with the latest terms and conditions regarding the cooperation between AHFL and AIATW as set forth in an Amendment No. 3 to the Alliance Agreement (the “Third Amendment to the Alliance Agreement”). Pursuant to the Third Amendment to the Alliance Agreement, both AHFL and AIATW agreed to adjust certain terms and conditions set forth this amendment, some of which included (i) except the first contract year (April 15th, 2013 to September 30th, 2014), the sales target of the alliance between the parties shall be changed to (a) value of new business (“VONB”) and (b) the 13-month persistency ratio; and (ii) AIATW will calculate and recognize the VONB and 13-month persistency ratio each contract year and inform the Company the result; and (iii) the Company agrees to return the basic business promotion fees to AIATW within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice sent by AIATW if the Company fails to meet the targets set forth in the Third Amendment to the Alliance Agreement, AIATW reserves the right to offset such amount against the amount payable by it to the Company; and (iv) upon the termination of the Alliance Agreement and its amendments pursuant to the Section 8.2 of the Alliance Agreement, both parties agreed to calculate the amount to be returned or repaid, as applicable, based on the past and current contract years. The Company shall return the basic business execution fees at NTD50 million for the first contract year, NTD35 million for the second contract year, and NTD33 million for each contract year thereafter within one month after the termination.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion of the results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 of this part. This report, including the information incorporated by reference, contains forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The use of any of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our possible or assumed future results. The actual results that we achieve may differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements due to the risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors section of this report, in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in other sections of this report, as well as in our annual report on Form 10-K. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Overview

The Company primarily provides two broad categories of insurance products, life insurance products and property and casualty insurance products, in Taiwan and People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The Company also provides reinsurance brokerage services and insurance consulting services in Hong Kong and Taiwan. The percentage of reinsurance brokerage services and insurance consulting services is less than 1% of our total revenue. The insurance products that the Company’s subsidiaries sell are underwritten by some of leading insurance companies in Taiwan and PRC, respectively.

(1)

Life Insurance Products

Total revenue from Taiwan life insurance products were 88.6% and 89.1% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Total revenue from PRC life insurance products were 3.7% and 5.6% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Total revenue from Taiwan life insurance products were 88.3% and 89.6% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Total revenue from PRC life insurance products were 4.8% and 5.2% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In addition to the periodic premium payment schedules, most of the individual life insurance products we distribute also allow the insured to choose to make a single, lump-sum premium payment at the beginning of the policy term. If a periodic payment schedule is adopted by the insured, a life insurance policy can generate periodic payment of fixed premiums to the insurance company for a specified period of time. This means that once the Company sells a life insurance policy with a periodic premium payment schedule, they will be able to derive commission and fee income from that policy for an extended period of time, sometimes up to 25 years. Because of this feature and the expected sustained growth of life insurance sales in China and Taiwan, we have focused significant resources ever since the incorporation of Anhou and Law Broker on developing our capability to distribute individual life insurance products with periodic payment schedules. We expect that sales of life insurance products will continuously be our primary source of revenue in the next several years.

(2)

Property and Casualty Insurance Products

Total revenue from Taiwan property and casualty insurance products were 7.5% and 4.7% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Total revenue from PRC property and casualty insurance products were 0.2% and 0.4% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Total revenue from Taiwan property and casualty insurance products were 6.4% and 4.7% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Total revenue from PRC property and casualty insurance products were both 0.3% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As the impacts of COVID-19 remain uncertain, we have been monitoring and will continue to measure and modify our business to protect our customers, sales professionals and employees. The extent of the COVID-19 impact to the Company will depend on numerous factors and developments. Consequently, any potential impacts of COVID-19 remain highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.

27

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operation and requires our management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We have had no changes to our Critical Accounting Policies as described in our most recent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and believe that of our significant accounting and reporting policies, the more critical policies include our accounting for revenue recognition, stock-based compensations, and estimate of income taxes. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included within our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Revenue

As a distributor of insurance products, we derive our revenue primarily from commissions and fees paid by insurance companies, typically calculated as a percentage of premiums paid by our customers to the insurance companies in among Taiwan, People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and Hong Kong. We generate revenue primarily through our sales force, which consists of individual sales agents in our distribution and service network. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the revenues generated from Taiwan, PRC and Hong Kong are as follows:

Revenue from our Taiwan segment increased by $4.0 million from $28.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $32 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Due to our continued growth in the sales of insurance products in the past years, we continue to receive more contingent commissions, which include trailing commissions, persistency rate linked bonuses and some other service allowance, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. However, the revenue growth was partially offset by decreases in the sales of long-term care and disability insurance products because of the discontinuations of these products in the year 2020.

Revenue from our PRC segment decreased by $0.4 million from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Decrease in revenue was primarily caused by the PRC government resuming a selling policy for insurance products in August 2020 which entails the audio and video recording of certain insurance sales processes. Such PRC policy (the “PRC Recording Policy”) has direct and adverse impact on our revenue from the PRC region.

Revenue from the Hong Kong Segment primarily derived from reinsurance commission on sales of insurance products from other insurers to Taiwan Life Insurance Co., Ltd. (“Taiwan Life”) for risk management. Due to the travel restriction, less demand for our travel insurance products led to a decrease in revenue from the reinsurance business for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Cost of revenue and gross profit

The cost of revenue mainly consists of commissions paid to our sales professionals. The cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $1.0 million, to $23.5 million compared to $22.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. We sold more insurance policies during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to amount of policies sold in the same period of 2020, which resulted in an increase in the direct commission costs paid to our sales professionals for the first year commissions.

Consequently, the gross profit margin increased from 23.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to 28.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

29

Selling expenses

Selling expenses were mainly incurred by Law Broker and Uniwill in connection with online marketing and advertising. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, our selling expenses were $0.1 million, reflecting a decrease of $0.3 million, compared with $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The selling expenses decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 due to the adverse impact from the outbreak of COVID-19 in Taiwan that substantially restricted our marketing activities in Taiwan during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses are principally comprised of salaries and benefits for our administrative staff, office rental expenses, travel expenses, depreciation and amortization, entertainment expenses, and professional service fees. General and administrative expenses were $6.2 million, reflecting an increase of $0.8 million, compared with $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Increase in the general and administrative expenses was attributed to the higher insurance platform maintenance fee for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020.

Other income (expenses)

Other income (expense) mainly consisted of interest income, interest expenses, gain or loss on valuation of financial assets, and foreign currency exchange gain or loss. Net other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.01 million, reflecting a decrease of $0.6 million, compared with net other income of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in other income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was due to foreign currency exchange loss recognized because of the depreciation of the US dollar against the New Taiwan dollar during the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in other-net was because of decrease in valuation gain on marketable securities. Taiwan security market has strong performance in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2021.

Income tax expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, income tax expense was $1.0 million, reflecting an increase of 141%, compared with the income tax expense of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly due to more revenues generated in the Taiwan segment during the second quarter of 2021.

Revenue from our Taiwan segment increased by $5.5 million from $54.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $60.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Due to our continued growth in the sales of insurance products in the past years, we continue to receive more contingent commissions, which include trailing commissions, persistency rate linked bonuses and some other service allowance, for the six months ended June 30, 2021. However, the revenue growth was partially offset by decreases in the sales of long-term care and disability insurance products because of the discontinuations of these products in the year 2020.

Net cash used in investing activities was $4.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared with the net cash used in investing activities of $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Decreases in the cash outflows for the investing activities resulted from the proceeds from sales of marketable securities and maturities of time deposits during the first half of 2021.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, which increased by $0.7 million from $3.0 million during the same period of 2020. The increase was mainly due to increases in the net proceeds from additional borrowings under the revolving credit agreements during the first half of 2021.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contractual obligations as disclosed in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2021

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2021. This conclusion was based on the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures” of our auunal report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The material weaknesses have not been remediated as of June 30, 2021. We continue working the remediation of the material weakness, we may determine to take additional measures to address our control deficiencies. The material weakness will continue to exist until the remediation steps identified in our 2020 Form 10-K are fully implemented and concluded to be operating effectively.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If not remediated, the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in the Form 10-K for the year of 2020 could result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

On April 29, 2021, Rays Technology Co., Ltd. (“Rays”), a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, received a Decision Letter dated April 27, 2021 from the Financial Supervisory Commission (Taiwan) (the “FSC”) stating that Rays was fined NTD900,000 (equivalent to approximately $32,233 USD) by the FSC for violating Article 167-1 Section 3 of the Insurance Act of Taiwan (the “Act”). The FSC found that from 2019 to 2021 Rays used its website “Triple-I” and its point system thereon to facilitate certain insurance sales and charged the points from certain participating insurance salespersons on the Triple-I point system once clients purchased insurance products from those insurance salespersons. The FSC found that Rays’ operations through the Triple-I website constituted insurance brokerage services but Rays did not have the proper insurance brokerage license while operating the Triple-I website.

On May 11, 2021, the FSC verbally informed Law Broker that it could expect a Decision Letter from the FSC stating that Law Broker was fined NTD1.7 million (equivalent to approximately $60,565 USD) and one-month correction period for violating the relevant laws and regulations of the Act. The FSC found that from 2011 to 2020 Law Broker charged advertising fees and business promotion fees pursuant to certain contracts and agreements with some of its strategic insurance companies and such charges exceeded the scope of remuneration for insurance-related services allowed for Law Broker. The FSC found that such business practices of Law Broker’s did not comply with Article 9 of the Act and Section 11 of Article 49 of the Regulations Governing Insurance Brokers.

The Company’s two subsidiaries, Rays and Law Broker, are in the process of adjusting their business models to regain compliance with the relevant laws and regulations and have paid the respective fines in full within the prescribed periods.

Except as disclosed above, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, we were not aware of any other legal proceedings or claims that we believed would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business, such as labor and employment disputes. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
