NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amount in USD)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

China United Insurance Service, Inc. (“China United” or “CUII”), the subsidiaries and variable-interest entity and its subsidiaries (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 September 30, 2022 is as follows:

On January 31, 2022, Genius Investment Consultant Co., Ltd. (“GIC”), a subsidiary entity of CUII entered into a stock transfer agreement with AIlife International Investment Co., Ltd. (“AIlife”), pursuant to which GIC sold and transferred to AIlife 100% of its equity ownership in Joint Insurance Broker Co., Ltd. (“JIB”), a former wholly-owned subsidiary of GIC, resulting in AIlife owning 100% equity interest in JIB. Such exchange of equity interests between CUII’s subsidiaries are under common control of the Company and therefore, they were accounted for at the carrying amount of the equity interests transferred and there was no impact on consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Table of Contents

On February 25, 2022, Law Anhou Insurance Agency Co., Ltd. (“Anhou”), a contractually controlled entity of CUII entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Jiangsu Law Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (“Jiangsu Law”) and third-party buyers, pursuant to which Anhou sold and transferred 100% of its equity ownership in Jiangsu Law, a wholly owned subsidiary of Anhou, for a total consideration of $3,262,890 (or RMB 21 million). On July 28, 2022, the Hsuchow Regulatory Bureau of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (the “CBIRC Jiangsu Regulatory Bureau”) approved the change of shareholders of Jiangsu Law from Anhou to the aforementioned third-party buyers and accordingly, Anhou has transferred out the control over Jiangsu Law. Please refer to Note 3 for more information.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China United, the subsidiaries and variable interest entity and its subsidiaries 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 unaudited 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

These unaudited 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, 2021, which were included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2021 Form 10-K”). The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s unaudited 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.

Variable Interest Entities

Due to the legal restrictions on foreign ownership and investment in insurance agency and brokerage businesses in China, especially those on qualifications as well as capital requirement of the investors, China United, through its subsidiary, Zhengzhou Zhonglian Hengfu Business Consulting Co., Limited (“WFOE”), entered into Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement (the “EBCA”), Power of Attorney, Option Agreement, and Share Pledge Agreement (collectively, the “First VIE Agreements”) on January 17, 2011 with Anhou and Anhou original shareholders so as to operate and conduct the insurance agency and brokerage business in the PRC.

Pursuant to the EBCA, (a) WFOE has the right to provide Anhou with complete technical support, business support and related consulting services during the term of the EBCA; (b) Anhou agrees to accept all the consultations and services provided by WFOE. Anhou further agrees that unless with WFOE’s prior written consent, during the term of the EBCA, Anhou shall not directly or indirectly accept the same or any similar consultations and/or services provided by any third party and shall not establish similar cooperation relationship with any third party regarding the matters contemplated by the EBCA; (c) within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year Anhou shall pay an amount to WFOE equal to the shortfall, if any, of the aggregate net income of Anhou for such fiscal; (d) WFOE retains all exclusive and proprietary rights and interests in all rights, ownership, interests and intellectual properties arising out of or created during the performance of the EBCA; and (e) the shareholders of Anhou have pledged all of their equity interests in Anhou to WFOE to guarantee Anhou’s performance of its obligations under the EBCA. The term of the EBCA is 10 years and may be extended and determined by WFOE prior to the expiration thereof, and Anhou shall accept such extended term unconditionally.

Table of Contents

On March 23, 2022, Anhou and WFOE entered into an amendment to the EBCA, pursuant to which the EBCA shall be automatic renewed for successive terms unless WFOE gives a 30-day notice to terminate such agreement, with each term being 10 years.

To extend the business within the PRC, Anhou intended to increase its registered capital to RMB50 million (approximately $8 million) to meet the requirement of the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (the “CIRC”) so that it can set up new branches in any province beyond its current operations in China. China United increased the investment in Anhou through various loan agreements with the shareholders of Anhou. The aggregate funding provided by WFOE was RMB 40 million. Due to the capital increase, a series of variable interest agreements (the “Second VIE Agreements”), which include Power of Attorneys, Exclusive Option Agreements, Share Pledge Agreements, were signed on October 24, 2013 and entered in the same form as the First VIE Agreements, other than the change of shareholder names and their respective shareholdings. The First VIE Agreements were terminated by and among WFOE, Anhou and Anhou original shareholders on the same date. The EBCA executed by and between WFOE and Anhou on January 17, 2011 remains in full effect.

As a result of the Second VIE Agreements, WFOE is considered the primary beneficiary of Anhou and has effective control over Anhou. Accordingly, the results of operations, assets and liabilities of Anhou and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Consolidated Affiliated Entities” or the “CAE”) are consolidated from the earliest period presented. The Company reviews the VIE’s status on an annual basis and determines if any events have occurred that could cause its primary beneficiary status to change, which include (a) the legal entity’s governing documents or contractual arrangements are changed in a manner that changes the characteristics or adequacy of the legal entity’s equity investment at risk; (b) the equity investment or some part thereof is returned to the equity investors, and other interests become exposed to expected losses of the legal entity; (c) the legal entity undertakes additional activities or acquires additional assets, beyond those anticipated at the later of the inception of the entity or the latest reconsideration event, that increase the entity’s expected losses; and (d) the legal entity receives an additional equity investment that is at risk, or the legal entity curtails or modifies its activities in a way that decreases its expected losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, no event taken place that would change the Company’s primary beneficiary status.

Disposal of Subsidiary

A disposal of a subsidiary is categorized as a discontinued operation as provided by ASC Topic 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations, if the disposal group is a component of an entity or group of components that meets the held for sale criteria, is disposed of by sale, or is disposed of other than by sale, and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.

The Company deconsolidates the accounts of a subsidiary as provided by ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, once the Company ceases to have a controlling interest in a subsidiary. The aggregate of the fair value of consideration received, the fair value of any retained noncontrolling investment and the carrying amount of the former subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are recognized as a gain or loss on disposition.

If the transaction involves the sale of an ownership interest in a subsidiary and if substantially all of the fair value of the assets in that subsidiary promised to the counterparty is concentrated in nonfinancial assets, the financial assets in that subsidiary are in substance nonfinancial assets (ISNFA) and are accounted for under ASC 610-20, where the gain or loss recognized upon the derecognition of a nonfinancial asset or an ISNFA is the difference between the amount of consideration measured and allocated to that distinct asset and the carrying amount of the distinct asset.

Marketable Securities

The Company invests part of its excessive cash in equity securities and money market funds. Marketable securities represent trading securities bought and held primarily for sale in the near-term to generate income on short-term price differences and are stated at fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense).

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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is derived from insurance agency and brokerage services with respect to life insurance and property and casualty insurance products. The Company, through its subsidiaries and variable interest entities, sells insurance products provided by insurance companies to individuals, and is compensated in the form of commissions from the respective insurance companies, according to the terms of each service agreement made by and between the Company and the insurance companies. The core revenue recognition principle under ASC 606, the Company considers the contracts with insurance companies contain one performance obligation and consideration should be recorded when performance obligation is satisfied at point in time. The sale of an insurance product by the Company is considered complete when initial insurance premium is paid by an individual and the insurance policy is approved by the respective insurance company. When a policy is effective, the insurance company is obligated to pay the agreed-upon commission to the Company under the terms of its service agreement with the Company and such commission is recognized as revenue.

For the first year commission (FYC), the Company recognizes the revenue when the individuals’ policies are effective. The Company makes the estimation amount to be entitled for annual performance and operating bonus which is based on the FYC. The Company makes an estimation on performance and operation bonus which are based on the accumulated FYC on quarterly basis, and make reconciliation between actual and estimation amount on annual basis. The estimated revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately $2.6 million and $8.4 million, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were approximately $1.2 million and $6.8 million, respectively.

Others includes the contingent commissions for subsequent years, the bonus based on persistency ratio bonus, and service allowances, are considered highly susceptible to factors outside the company’s influence and depend on the actions of third parties (i.e., the subsequent premiums paid by individual policyholders), and the uncertainty can be extended for many years. Considering the high uncertainties, the contingent commissions for subsequent years, the bonus based on persistency ratio, and service allowances will be recognized as revenue based on the actual amount received from the insurance companies after the uncertain event is resolved.

For property and casualty insurance products, the Company recognizes the revenue when the individuals’ policies are effective. The revenue from property and casualty insurance products was 5.7% and 6.7% of the Company’s total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and was 9.0% and 7.4% of the Company’s total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

The Company is obligated to pay commissions to its sales professionals when an insurance policy becomes effective. The Company recognizes commission revenue granted from insurance companies on a gross basis, and the commissions paid to its sales professionals are recognized as cost of revenue.

The Company enters into service agreements with insurance companies, which may give rise to contract assets and contract liabilities. When the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of payments made by insurance companies, the Company recognizes either contract assets (its performance precedes the billing date) or contract liabilities (customer payment is received in advance of performance).

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”). Each subsidiary maintains its financial records in its own functional currency. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are measured at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are remeasured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Exchange gains and losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss).

Table of Contents

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. Cash flows were also translated at average translation rates for the period and, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows would not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The exchange rates used for unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings 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 September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company does not have any potentially dilutive instrument.

The following is a reconciliation of the income and share data used in the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, under the two-class method.

Basic and diluted earnings per share	$	0.366	$	0.366	$	0.218	$	0.218

The participating rights (liquidation and dividend rights) of the holders of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock are identical, except with respect to voting right. As a result, and in accordance with ASC Topic 260, the undistributed earnings for each year are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the common stock and preferred stock as if the earnings for the year had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis.

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.

In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities that are measured and reported on a fair value basis. At each reporting period, all assets and liabilities for which the fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs are classified as Level 3.

The following table summarize financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The carrying amounts of current financial assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets for cash equivalents, time deposits, and restricted cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term duration of those instruments, which are considered level 2 fair value measurement.

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.

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 NTD 3,000,000 insured by Central Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”). In China, a depositor has up to RMB 500,000 insured by the People’s Bank of China Financial Stability Bureau (“FSD”). In Hong Kong, a depositor has up to HKD 500,000 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”).

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, contract assets and accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately $2,257,000 and $2,712,000 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 $86,840,000 and $83,446,000, 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 September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s revenues from sale of insurance policies underwritten by these companies were:

The Company’s operations are in Taiwan, the PRC, and Hong Kong. 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.

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 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 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 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 the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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

NOTE 3 – DISPOSAL OF NONFINANCIAL ASSETS IN SUBSIDIARY, JIANGSU LAW

On February 25, 2022, Law Anhou Insurance Agency Co., Ltd. (“Anhou”), a contractually controlled entity of CUII entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Jiangsu Law Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (“Jiangsu Law”) and third-party buyers, pursuant to which Anhou shall sell and transfer 100% of its equity ownership in Jiangsu Law, a wholly owned subsidiary of Anhou, for a total consideration of $3,262,890 (or RMB 21 million) to the following buyers: Xuzhou Guosheng Furui Asset Management Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Zhongbozhixin Financial Service Outsourcing Co., Ltd., and Xuzhou Xinrui Service Outsourcing Co., Ltd. Jiangsu Law holds an insurance agency license. The Company evaluated that such disposal does not meet the criteria for discontinued operations because it does not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

The Share Purchase Agreement provided that the accounts receivables and unfulfilled contracts of Jiangsu Law are transferred to Anhou and all debts and liabilities of Jiangsu Law are assumed by Anhou. In addition, the Share Purchase Agreement also provides that Anhou and Jiangsu Law are responsible for the arrangement of employees of Jiangsu Law. As a result, Jiangsu Law shall retain its insurance agency license as the only asset transferred to the third-party buyers. Further, for the maintenance of insurance agency license, there is a new requirement effective February 2022 by the local authorities to make additional capital contribution to Jiangsu Law, which will be provided by the third-party buyers according to the Share Purchase Agreement. The cost to sell this insurance agency license was immaterial.

On July 28, 2022, the Hsuchow Regulatory Bureau of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (the “CBIRC Hsuchow Regulatory Bureau”) approved the change of shareholders of Jiangsu Law from Anhou to the aforementioned third-party buyers and accordingly, Anhou lost control over Jiangsu Law that holds the insurance agency license under ASC 810. In the meantime, the Company recognized a gain of $3,262,890 from the disposal of the insurance agency license under ASC 610-20, which was included in income from operations during the third fiscal quarter of 2022.

Hainan Haoguan Yucheng Technology Service LLP (“HAINAN”)	9.99	%		42,195	9.99	%		47,179

On February 13, 2015, the Company and AHFL, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an acquisition agreement with Mr. Chwan Hau Li, the selling shareholder of GHFL. Subsequent to the acquisition, GHFL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which in turn holds approximately 15.64% issued and outstanding shares of Genius Insurance Broker Co., Ltd. (“Genius Broker”). Accordingly, the acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition of Genius Broker, which is an equity investment under cost method using the measurement alternative acquired by the Company. Further, the equity interest of GIB owned by GIC reduced from 15.64% to 11.73% due to capital increase in 2020 where GIC didn’t subscribe the new shares during the capital increase.

A new investee in the investment ownership was due to the Company’s investment in HAINAN in 2021. HAINAN operates projects for insurance platforms which contain insurance product centralized procurement, share service platform of sub-hierarchy distribution channel, and IoT business requirement. The Company invested HAINAN for RMB 300,000, or 9.99%, to engage in the qualification of supplier membership and distributor membership.

The change in carrying value of equity investment resulted from the fluctuation of exchange rates.

Contract with AIATW

On June 10, 2013, AHFL entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Alliance Agreement”) with AIA International Limited Taiwan Branch (“AIATW”), the purpose of which is to promote life insurance products provided by AIATW within Taiwan by insurance agencies or brokerage companies affiliated with AHFL or China United. Pursuant to the terms of the Alliance Agreement, AIATW paid AHFL an execution fee, which was recorded as revenue upon fulfilling certain criteria over the original term of the Alliance Agreement from June 1, 2013 to May 31, 2018. From 2014 to 2017, AHFL has entered into three amendments to the Alliance Agreement with AIATW to further revise certain terms and conditions in the Alliance Agreement, including the extension of the expiration date from May 31, 2018 to December 31, 2021. Pursuant to the Third Amendment to the Alliance Agreement (the “Amendment 3”), both AHFL and AIATW agreed to adjust certain terms and conditions set forth in 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 Amendment 3, 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 NTD 50 million for the first contract year, NTD 35 million for the second contract year, and NTD 33 million for each contract year thereafter within one month after the termination. Accordingly, for the last contract year of 2021, no revenue was recognized because the Company failed to meet the targets set forth in the Amendment 3 and therefore, the Company shall refund the basic business execution fees of NTD 33 million based on the calculation of VONB and 13-month persistency for the same contract period. On May 6, 2022, AIATW issued a formal letter to the Company and agreed to reduce the refund amount of $1,159,039 (NTD 33.0 million) to $807,127 (NTD 23.1 million), for which the Company has paid to AIATW on May 13, 2022. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the basic business execution fees of nil and $1,191,858 were payable and recorded under other current liabilities, respectively.

On March 15, 2022, AHFL entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Alliance Agreement (the “Amendment 4”), which, among other things, extended the expiration date of the Alliance Agreement to December 31, 2031. Pursuant to Amendment 4, the sales targets for the remaining contract term under the Alliance Agreement shall be changed by reference to (i) the amount of VONB and (ii) the 13-month persistency ratio as set forth therein, provided that to the extent any underlying insurance contract is revoked, invalidated or terminated and premiums are refunded to such policyholder, the amount of the related VONB shall be correspondingly reduced. Amendment 4 provides that AIATW shall pay the strategic alliance business promotion fee of NTD 50 million to AHFL; however, AHFL shall be required to return certain portions of or all of the business promotion fees within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice provided by AIATW if AFHL fails to meet certain goals set in Table 2 and Table 3 of Amendment 4. The primary factor under formula one focuses on the annual and/or accumulated achievement rate(s), while the primary factor under formula two focuses on the 13-month persistency ratio(s), among others.

The Company’s income tax expense is mainly generated by its subsidiaries in Taiwan. The Company’s subsidiaries in Taiwan are governed by the Income Tax Law of Taiwan and subject to a statutory tax rate on income reported in the statutory financial statements at 20% and a tax on undistributed earnings at 5%. The Company had no plan to distribute earnings earned for the years ended December 2021 and 2020, and the tax on undistributed earnings on entities in Taiwan of 5% was estimated. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had current tax payable of $2,125,788 and $3,703,412 for Taiwan income tax, respectively.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. We consider projected future taxable income and then record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of the deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Company considered cumulative losses arising from Uniwill’s startup costs at the initial stage along with compensation costs in connection with the issuance of preferred stock and maintained a full valuation allowance against Unwill’s deferred tax assets because insufficient evidence existed to support the realization of any future income tax benefits. Uniwill became profitable because of receiving more trailing commissions since the fiscal year 2021 and also obtained the insurance license to sell property and casualty insurance products in 2022. As a result, the Company expected future profitability and improved overall prospects of future business. Therefore, the Company released the valuation allowance of $354,828 (NTD 11,273,783) against Uniwill’s deferred tax assets in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

WFOE and the Consolidated Affiliated Entities (“CAE”) in the PRC are governed by the Income Tax Law of PRC concerning private-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate adjustments. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no current tax payable for PRC income tax.

The Company’s subsidiaries in Hong Kong are governed by the Inland Revenue Ordinance Tax Law and subject to two-tiered profits tax regime. The first HK$2 million assessable profits is taxed at 8.25% and any assessable profits over HK$2 million is taxed at 16.25%. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had current tax payable of nil and $9,756 for Hong Kong income tax.

Table of Contents

The 2017 Tax Act was enacted into law on December 22, 2017 and imposed a mandatory one-time tax on accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, introducing new tax regimes, and changing how foreign earnings are subject to U.S. tax.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had current tax payable of $239,839 and $179,879, and noncurrent tax payable of $299,797 and $539,636 for U.S. income tax.

NOTE 19 –RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

There has continued to be widespread impact from the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic including potentially more contagious strains of COVID-19 such as the Delta and Omicron variants. It has created significant volatility and uncertainty and economic disruption. The extent to which the pandemic impacts the Company’s business and operations will depend on numerous evolving factors, many of which are not within the Company’s control and which the Company may not be able to accurately predict, including its duration and scope; the ultimate availability, administration and effectiveness of vaccines around the world; governmental actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic, including vaccine coverage; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity and actions taken in response; the ability of the Company’s customers to pay their insurance premiums which could impact the Company’s commission and fee revenues for the services provided; and the long-term impact of employees working from home, including increased technology costs.

On August 2, 2022, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (“Pelosi”) visited Taiwan, which marked the first time that a U.S. House speaker has visited Taiwan in 25 years. China’s military announced it was conducting military exercises in response to Pelosi’s visit, including joint air and sea drills and live-fire exercises near Taiwan. The government of the P.R.C. asserts sovereignty over Taiwan, and does not recognize the legitimacy of the R.O.C. government. Therefore, relations between the R.O.C. and the P.R.C. and other factors affecting the political or economic conditions in Taiwan could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, all of which are not within the Company’s control and the Company may not be able to accurately predict at this time.

NOTE 20 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued and determine that there were no subsequent events or transactions that require recognition or disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

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 unaudited 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 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 the leading insurance companies in Taiwan and PRC, respectively.

(1)

Life Insurance Products

Total revenue from Taiwan segment’s sales of life insurance products were 92.2% and 87.7% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total revenue from PRC segment’s sales of life insurance products were 2.1% and 3.3% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Total revenue from Taiwan segment’s sales of life insurance products were 90.3% and 88.1% of the Company’s total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total revenue from PRC segment’s sales of life insurance products were 2.9% and 4.3% of the Company’s total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, 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, it 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 sustainable growth of life insurance sales in the PRC and Taiwan, we have invested 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 continue being our primary source of revenue in the next several years.

(2)

Property and Casualty Insurance Products

Total revenue from Taiwan segment’s sales of property and casualty insurance products were 5.7% and 8.1% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total revenue from PRC segment’s sales of property and casualty insurance products were nil and 0.9% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Total revenue from Taiwan segment’s sales of property and casualty insurance products were 6.3% and 7.0% of the Company’s total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total revenue from PRC segment’s sales of property and casualty insurance products were 0.4% and 0.5% of the Company’s total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Table of Contents

As the impacts of COVID-19 and its duration remain uncertain, we have been monitoring and will continue to measure and modify our business attempting to keep our customers, sales professionals and employees healthy and safe. 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.

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. Except for the accounting policy for disposal of subsidiary as described in Note 2 to this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, 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, 2021 and believe that of our significant accounting and reporting policies, the more critical policies include our accounting for revenue recognition and estimate of income taxes. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included within our 2021 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 Taiwan, 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 September 30, 2022 and 2021, the revenues generated from Taiwan, PRC and Hong Kong were as follows:


Geographic Areas	Three Months Ended September 30,

Table of Contents

Revenue from our Taiwan segment increased by $1.7 million from $30.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $32.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The revenue in local currency was increased due to the performance and operation bonus resulting from the sales of insurance products increase from Uniwill and Law Broker but partially offset by the foreign exchange fluctuation from the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U.S. dollar.

Revenue from our PRC segment decreased by $0.6 million from $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The overall insurance industry environment was declining during 2022 in PRC and customers in PRC were less willing to buy those insurance products in 2022, which resulted in the decrease of revenue in the PRC segment.

Revenue from the Hong Kong Segment was primarily derived from reinsurance commission on sales of insurance products from other insurers to Taiwan Life Insurance Co., Ltd. (“Taiwan Life”) for risk management. Revenue decrease from our Hong Kong segment for the three months ended September 30, 2022 continued compared to that of the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to the termination of certain of our reinsurance agreements and the discontinuation of travel insurance.

Cost of revenue and gross profit

The cost of revenue mainly consists of commissions paid to our sales professionals. The cost of revenue increased by $2.9 million from $17.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $20.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in the cost of revenue was mainly resulted from the revenue increase of both Uniwill and Law Broker. In addition, the bonuses paid to agents also increased due to the outstanding sales performance from senior agents with higher commission rates.

Consequently, the gross profit margin decreased from 46.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 38.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses were mainly incurred by Law Broker and Uniwill in connection with costs related to marketing and advertising. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, selling expenses were $0.9 million, reflecting an increase of $0.5 million, compared with $0.4 million of selling expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in the selling expenses was caused by the marketing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2022. For the same period in 2021, the adverse impact from the outbreak of COVID-19 in Taiwan had substantially restricted our marketing activities in Taiwan, leading to less selling expenses in such period.

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. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, G&A expenses were $6.4 million, reflecting a decrease of $0.8 million, compared with $7.2 million of G&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in the general and administrative expenses was attributed to the recognition of compensation costs for the issuance of shares of common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Gain on disposal of nonfinancial assets in Jiangsu Law

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, other operating income were $3.3 million generated from the disposal of nonfinancial assets in one of the subsidiaries, Jiangsu Law.

Other income (expenses), net

Other income mainly consisted of interest income, interest expenses, gain or loss on valuation of financial assets and foreign currency exchange gain or loss. Other income were $1.4 million, reflecting an increase of $1.1 million, compared with the other income of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in other income was mainly due to the foreign currency exchange gain recognized from foreign currency time deposits assets and intercompany receivable and payable because of the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U.S. dollar and Chinese Yuan during the third quarter of 2022.

Table of Contents

Income tax expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, income tax expense was $0.9 million, reflecting a decrease of $1.0 million or 54.6%, compared with the income tax expense of $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in income tax expense was mainly due to the reversal of valuation allowance, with respect to reason of reversal of valuation allowance, please refer to Note14.

Other comprehensive items

Other comprehensive items mainly consisted of foreign currency translation gain or loss. The foreign currency translation loss was $6.7 million, reflecting a decrease of $6.9 million, compared with foreign currency translation gain of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a larger foreign currency translation loss resulted from the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U .S. dollar for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

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 Taiwan, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the revenues generated from Taiwan, PRC and Hong Kong were as follows:


Geographic Areas	Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2022			2021			Change	Percent
Revenue
Taiwan segment	$	92,085,528		$	90,439,019		$	1,646,509	1.8	%
Percentage of revenue		96.6	%		95.1	%
PRC segment		3,115,764			4,554,515			(1,438,751)	(31.6)	%
Percentage of revenue		3.3	%		4.8	%
Hong Kong segment		83,208			139,763			(56,555)	(40.5)	%
Percentage of revenue		0.1	%		0.1	%
Total revenue	$	95,284,500		$	95,133,297		$	151,203	0.2	%

Revenue from our Taiwan segment increased by $1.7 million from $90.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $92.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The revenue in local currency was increased due to the performance and operation bonus resulting from the sales of insurance products increase from Uniwill but partially offset by the foreign exchange fluctuation from the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U.S. dollar.

Revenue from our PRC segment decreased by $1.4 million from $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The overall insurance industry environment in PRC was declining during 2022 and customers in PRC were less willing to buy those insurance products in 2022, which resulted in the decrease of revenue in the PRC segment.

Revenue from the Hong Kong Segment was primarily derived from reinsurance commission on sales of insurance products from other insurers to Taiwan Life for risk management. Decrease in revenue from our Hong Kong segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 continued compared to that of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due to the termination of certain reinsurance agreements and the discontinuation of travel insurance.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 remained consistent with the same period in 2021.

Consequently, the gross profit margin slightly decreased from 37.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to 36.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses were mainly incurred by Law Broker and Uniwill in connection with marketing and advertising. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, selling expenses were $2.0 million, reflecting an increase of $ 0.9 million, compared with that of $1.1 million of selling expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in the selling expenses was caused by the increase of marketing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the same period in 2021, the adverse impact from the outbreak of COVID-19 in Taiwan had substantially restricted our marketing activities in Taiwan, resulting in less selling expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Table of Contents

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. The decrease in the general and administrative expenses was mainly attributed to the recognition of compensation costs for the issuance of shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 but partially offset by the recognition of severance pay arising from the disposal of the subsidiary Jiangsu Law in June, 2022.

Gain on disposal of nonfinancial assets in Jiangsu Law

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, other operating income were $3.3 million generated from the disposal of nonfinancial assets in the subsidiary, Jiangsu Law.

Other income (expenses), net

Other income mainly consisted of interest income, interest expenses, gain or loss on valuation of financial assets and foreign currency exchange gain or loss. Other income during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $3.3 million, reflecting an increase of $2.5 million, compared with that of $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in other income was mainly due to the foreign currency exchange gain recognized from foreign currency time deposits assets because of the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U.S. dollar and during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Income tax expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, income tax expense was $3.6 million, reflecting a decrease of $0.7 million or 17.2%, compared with that of $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in tax expenses was mainly due to the reversal of valuation allowance, with respect to reason of reversal of valuation allowance, please refer to Note14.

Other comprehensive items

Other comprehensive items mainly consisted of foreign currency translation gain or loss. Foreign currency translation loss were $13.4 million, reflecting a decrease of $14.1 million, compared with foreign currency translation gain of $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a larger foreign currency translation loss resulted from the substantial depreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar against the U.S. dollar for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

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 September 30, 2022. 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 annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The material weaknesses have not been remediated as of September 30, 2022. We continue to work on 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 2021 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 2021 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 September 30, 2022, 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.
