NOTE 5 – EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT

 

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the equity method investment amounted to $484,090 and $483,101, respectively. The investment represents the Company's subsidiary, Avalon Shanghai's interest in Epicon Biotech Co., Ltd. ("Epicon"). Epicon was incorporated on August 14, 2018 in PRC. Avalon Shanghai and the other unrelated company, Jiangsu Unicorn Biological Technology Co., Ltd. ("Unicorn"), accounted for 40% and 60% of the total ownership, respectively. Epicon is focused on cell preparation, third party testing, biological sample repository for commercial and scientific research purposes and the clinical transformation of scientific achievements.

 

The Company treats the equity investment in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted for any excess of the Company's share of the incorporated-date fair values of the investee's identifiable net assets over the cost of the investment (if any). Thereafter, the investment is adjusted for the post incorporation change in the Company's share of the investee's net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's share of Epicon's net loss was $11,332 and $10,344, respectively, which was included in loss from equity-method investment in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's share of Epicon's net loss was $20,416 and $23,087, respectively, which was included in loss from equity-method investment in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
