Note 20 – Segment Information

The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. Due to business strategic changes, the Company merged consumer products segment and trading segment. As a result, the Company has determined that it has two operating segments as defined by ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”: consumer products and electric vehicles (“EV”). Consumer products segment manufactures, sell and trade Charcoal Doctor branded products and BBQ charcoal in China. The EV segment was acquired in July 2017. Management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operation results of consumer products and electric vehicles separately.

Note 20 – Segment Information (continued)

Adjustments and eliminations of inter-company transactions were not included in determining segment (loss) profit, as they are not used by the chief operating decision maker. The following table presents summary information by segment for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
