SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

Note 20 – SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

Ordinary shares

 

On September 26, 2023, the Company closed a private placement of 498,000 shares of ordinary shares at $5.20 per share with gross proceeds of $2,589,600.

 

On March 1, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split on its ordinary shares. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 20 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares were automatically be converted into one issued and outstanding ordinary share. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Instead, any fractional shares that would have resulted from the split were rounded up to the next whole number. The reverse stock split affects all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares.

Statutory reserves

 

Statutory reserves represent restricted retained earnings. Based on their legal formation, the Company is required to set aside 10% of its net income as reported in their statutory accounts on an annual basis to the Statutory Surplus Reserve Fund (the “Reserve Fund”). Once the total amount set aside in the Reserve Fund reaches 50% of the entity’s registered capital, further appropriations become discretionary. The Reserve Fund can be used to increase the entity’s registered capital upon approval by relevant government authorities or eliminate its future losses under PRC GAAP upon a resolution by its board of directors. The Reserve Fund is not distributable to shareholders, as cash dividends or otherwise, except in the event of liquidation.

 

Appropriations to the Reserve Fund are accounted for as a transfer from unrestricted earnings to statutory reserves. During the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not make appropriations to statutory reserves.

 

There are no legal requirements in the PRC to fund the Reserve Fund by transfer of cash to any restricted accounts, and the Company does not do so.
