4.C. Organizational Structure
Our Subsidiaries and VIEs, page 83
2.We note your response to prior comment ten and we reissue our comment. Please revise
to provide a robust analysis of how the contractual VIE agreements included in pages 86-
87 provide you with controlling financial interests in Zhisheng. Explain how you
concluded that you are the primary beneficiary.
5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Dividends and Distributions, page 110
3.We note your response to prior comment five and we reissue our comment. It is still not
clear how cash is transferred between the entities in your organization. For example,
considering the cash balance of the Company and cash flows presented on page 92, it is
not clear how your disclosure of cash flows from the Company to the Company’s
subsidiaries of $9,500,000 in 2021 is appropriate. Please revise to provide a detailed
listing of each cash transferred and received for each entity during the periods presented
and reconcile to cash flow disclosures on page 92.
Capital Expenditures, page 111
4.We note your response to prior comment six and we reissue our comment. Please revise
to disclose that the measure "Adjusted capital expenditures" is a non-GAAP measure and
provide the disclosures required by Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.
Note 11- Acquisition, page F-20
5.We note your responses to prior comments eight and 12 and we reissue our comments.
Your response states that a $4.00 per share value was determined through such
negotiations between the participants in both transactions and also reflects a premium over
the trading value of the ordinary shares. The quoted closing prices for your ordinary
shares on NASDAQ on the dates of the acquisitions of Cheyi BVI and Yinhua were $2.12
and $1.85 per share, respectively. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets as the most reliable fair value measurement,
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. Refer to ASC 820-10-35-41. Accordingly,
please revise your valuation of shares issued in the acquisitions and purchase
consideration based on the quoted trading price of your ordinary shares on the date of
acquisitions or demonstrate to us how your valuation methodology is more reliable and
preferable. Please tell us the exceptions in ASC 820 you relied upon to make adjustments
to an observable input used to value your ordinary share issued in these acquisitions
and how your prioritization to use unobservable inputs as an adjustment is consistent with
the general principles of the fair value hierarchy. Please include the applicable citations in
GAAP to support your valuation of shares and accounting conclusion.
