Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 27,015 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

The following discussion and analysis of the results of our operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed financial statements, and the notes to those unaudited condensed financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Report. All monetary figures are presented in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national, and local general economic and market conditions; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; change in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; the risk of foreign currency exchange rate; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC.

Although the forward-looking statements in this Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

Overview

GD Culture Group Limited, formerly known as JM Global Holding Company, TMSR Holding Company Limited and Code Chain New Continent Limited, is a Nevada corporation and a holding company. The Company currently conducts its operations on virtual content production (the “Virtual Content Production”) through the Company and two subsidiaries, AI Catalysis and Shanghai Xianzhui. The Company focuses its business mainly on 1) AI-driven digital human creation and customization; and 2) Live streaming and e-commerce. The company has relentlessly been focusing on serving its customers and creating value for them through the continual innovation and optimization of its products and services. The Company’s current subsidiaries, Citi Profit, Highlight HK, Highlight WFOE are holding companies with no material operations.

SyncWaveX is an AI-powered web-based video generation tool, engineered to enable users to synthesize virtual human videos with precise lip synchronization. Utilization involves text input and selection from a library of integrated character models and auditory profiles. The core technological foundation is comprised of speech synthesis, facial expression emulation, and lip-synchronization algorithms. This solution is primarily directed towards content creators, facilitating the rapid production of spoken-word videos; educational and corporate entities, for the transformation of curricular materials into illustrative video content; e-commerce vendors, for the provision of 24-hour digital broadcast capabilities; and individual users, for the creation of engaging social media content. Foundational functionalities are accessible at no cost, subject to daily generative output constraints. The principal revenue model is predicated upon personalized customization services, wherein users may upload photographic and vocal data to cultivate proprietary digital replicas. Upon depletion of complimentary allocation, a tiered fee structure, contingent on temporal duration or generative frequency, is instituted. The platform also accommodates horizontal and vertical aspect ratios, ensuring cross-platform compatibility, thereby fostering the pervasive integration of AI-driven digital human technology across creative and commercial landscapes.

The Company aims to generate revenue from customization services subscriptions.

Key Factors that Affect Operating Results

Competition

E-commerce and live streaming is a competitive industry. Our competition varies and includes content creators on TikTok and other social media platforms. Each of these competitors competes with us based on quality of content, activeness and responsiveness on the social placement, product selection, product quality, customer service, price, store format, location, or a combination of these factors. Some of these competitors may have been in business longer, may have more experience, or may have greater financial or marketing resources than us. As competition intensifies, our results of operations may be negatively impacted through a loss of sales and decrease in market share.

Retention of Key Management Team Members

Our management team comprises executives with extensive experience in technology and content creation. The management team has led us to take leaps in deploying AI technology in live-steaming, e-commerce, gaming and other sectors. The loss of any of our key executive team members might affect our business and our result of operation.

Our Ability to Grow Market Presence and Penetrate New Markets

We are still in an early development stage. We intend to expand our presence on social media to increase the market presence. If we cannot grow our market presence and penetrate new markets in an effective and cost-efficient way, our results of operation will be negatively impacted.

S&M expenses decreased to nil for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,191,667 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the Company decreased inputs on digital human and e-commerce live streaming marketing and advertising due to the uncertainty surrounding TikTok’s potential exit from the U.S. G&A expenses decreased by $831,403 from $1,769,280 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $937,877 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

R&D expenses decreased to nil for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $217,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the Company decreased inputs on research and development about our artificial intelligence based digital human application.

The Company’s other income decreased by $19,828 during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $21,946 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the absence of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which had been earned from a loan to a third party in 2024.

Loss from Continuing Operations

As a result of the foregoing, loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $935,759, a decrease of approximately 77.5%, as compared to loss from continuing operations of $4,156,501 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Net Loss

The Company’s net loss decreased by $3,180,029, or 76.5%, to $977,510 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, from $4,157,539 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly driven by lower operating expenses, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $51,236 in its operating bank accounts and working capital deficit of approximately $1.5 million. From September 2024 to January 2025, Mr. Xiaojian Wang, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”), lent $399,485 to the Company through five loan agreements, for working capital purposes. Pursuant to the loan agreements, these loans are non-interest bearing and will be due on September 18, 2025, September 20, 2025, October 4, 2025, October 23, 2025, December 16, 2025 and January 31, 2026, respectively. On each of March 10, 2025 and March 18, 2025, the Company repaid $100,000, for an aggregated of $200,000 to the CEO, reducing the outstanding loan balance to $199,485 as of March 31, 2025. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company repaid $199,485 in full to the CEO. Up to the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, there was no outstanding loan from the CEO.

On January 23, 2025, the Green Oasis Limited, a shareholder holding less than a 5% ownership shares in the Company, provided a $100,000 loan to the Company for working capital purposes. Pursuant to the loan agreement, this loan is non-interest bearing and was due on April 23, 2025. On April 25, 2025, Green Oasis Limited and the Company executed an amendment to the previous loan, extending the maturity date to July 23, 2025.

On March 4, 2025, the Company sold 1,115,600 shares of common stock at $0.896379 per share, generating gross proceeds of $1,000,000. The Company received net proceeds of $910,000 after deducting underwriter’s fees of $70,000 and a $20,000 reimbursement for the underwriter’s legal counsel and due diligence analysis expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering for working capital purposes.

On May 2, 2025, the Company completed a securities offering in which it agreed to sell (i) 1,115,600 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of approximately $0.524 per share and (ii) 9,380,582 pre-funded warrants at a purchase price of approximately $0.523 per warrant. The aggregate gross proceeds from the offering will be $5,500,000. Up to the date of the unaudited condensed interim financial statements were issued, The Company received $4,478,000 in proceeds for subscription of 1,115,600 shares of its common stock and 7,468,536 pre-funded warrants. The offering remains ongoing and has not yet been fully completed. Transaction costs incurred through the reporting date included underwriter’s fees of $313,460 and a $20,000 reimbursement for the underwriter’s legal counsel and due diligence expenses. Net proceeds from the offering, after deducting these expenses, will be $5,095,000. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering for working capital purposes.

The Company evaluated its ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern, which requires management to assess whether there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $51,236 and a working capital deficit of approximately $1.5 million. However, on May 2, 2025, the Company completed a public offering and partially received net proceeds of approximately $4.1 million. After considering the impact of this financing and the Company’s projected operating cash flows, management reassessed its liquidity position and concluded that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they become due for at least the next twelve months from the date the financial statements are issued. Accordingly, management determined that substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern no longer exists as of the issuance date of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following summarizes the key components of the Company’s cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 2024
Net cash used in operating activities $(831,308) $(3,617,910)
Net cash used in investing activities - (1,900,000)
Net cash provided by financing activities 860,000 830,533
Effect of exchange rate change on cash and cash equivalents 6 (1,940)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents $28,698 $(4,689,317)

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to approximately $3.6 million net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately $1.0 million, as compared to approximately $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities decreased by approximately $0.2 million, mainly due to the decreased amortization of intangible assets and deferred tax expenses, and changes in operating assets and liabilities decreased approximately $0.2 million.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately nil for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was due to the absence of the loan to a third party for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period of 2024.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, remaining consistent with the $0.8 million net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The stable cash flow from financing activities primarily reflects continued proceeds from issuance of debt and new common stock, indicating that our financing structure remained relatively unchanged year over year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company prepares its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can significantly impact the amounts the Company reports as assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and the related disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The Company’s actual results could differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company identified the following critical accounting estimates.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company’s determination of whether or not an indication of impairment exists at the cash generating unit level requires significant management judgment pertaining to intangible assets, including a software copyright of a broadcast game (the “Tribal Light”), 55 digital humans and a software copyright of AI Box, which are used for online living-stream, as well as the operating Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, including the offices of the Company. Management considers both external and internal sources of information in assessing whether there are any indications that the Company’s intangible assets and ROU assets are impaired.

Fair value of the long-lived assets was determined by the Company based on the income approach using the discounted cash flow associated with the underlying assets, which incorporated certain assumptions including projected revenue, growth rates and projected operating costs based on current economic condition, expectation of management and projected trends of current operating results. Considerable management judgement is used to estimate future cashflows, particularly revenues expected to be generated from the usage of the long-lived assets and estimates of the price market participants would pay to lease the operating lease right-use assets, which are based on comparable market rental information that could be reasonably obtained for the property. Accordingly, actual results may vary significantly from the Company estimates as they are forward-looking and include assumptions about economic and market conditions with uncertain future outcomes. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not recognized impairment losses in intangible assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which requires disclosure of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company’s management does not believe the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The purpose of the amendment is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ending December 31, 2024.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This new guidance is designed to improve the disclosures about the types of expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, and costs incurred related to inventory and manufacturing activities. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective basis with optional retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

We do not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss and statements of cash flows.

Market risk

As filed, 4,799 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is one of the most significant risks for the Company’s business.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. Cash held at major financial institutions located in the PRC are not insured by the government. While we believe that these financial institutions are of high credit quality, it also continually monitors their credit worthiness.

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposed to credit risk. Credit risk is controlled by the application of credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. The Company manages credit risk through in-house research and analysis of the Chinese economy and the underlying obligors and transaction structures. To minimize credit risk, the Company normally require prepayment from the customers prior to begin production or delivery products. The Company identifies credit risk collectively based on industry, geography and customer type. This information is monitored regularly by management.

In measuring the credit risk of our sales to our customers, the Company mainly reflects the “probability of default” by the customer on its contractual obligations and considers the current financial position of the customer and the exposures to the customer and its likely future development.

Liquidity Risk

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $51,236 cash in its operating bank accounts and working capital of approximately $1.5 million. In May 2025, Mr. Xiaojian Wang, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company(“CEO”), executed a Letter of Support in which he agreed to provide continuing financial support to the Company for a period of at least 12 months from the issuance date of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2025. From September 2024 to January 2025, Mr. Xiaojian Wang, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”), lent $399,485 to the Company through five loan agreements, for working capital purposes. Pursuant to the loan agreements, these loans are non-interest bearing and will be due on September 18, 2025, September 20, 2025, October 4, 2025, October 23, 2025, December 16, 2025 and January 31, 2026, respectively. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company repaid $399,485 in full to the CEO. Up to the date of the consolidated financial statements were issued, there was no outstanding loan from the CEO.

After considering the impact of this financing and the Company’s projected operating cash flows, management reassessed its liquidity position and concluded that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they become due for at least the next twelve months from the date the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company also intends to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund future operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, the Company has planned and implemented cost-cutting measures to reduce operating expenditures and loss. Management believes that the Company can adjust the pace of its business development and control operating expenses when necessary.

Inflation Risk

The Company is also exposed to inflation risk. Inflationary factors, such as increases in raw material and overhead costs, could impair our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and operating expenses as a percentage of sales revenue if the selling prices of our products do not increase with such increased costs.

Foreign Currency Risk

A majority of the Company’s operating activities and a significant portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market.

Controls and procedures
