Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Wetouch Technology Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wetouch Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the”Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and the related consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of changes in shareholders ‘equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Wetouch Technology Inc. (“Wetouch”, or the “Company”), formerly known as Gulf West Investment Properties, Inc., was originally incorporated in August 1992, under the laws of the state of Nevada.

On October 9, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Wetouch Holding Group Limited (“BVI Wetouch”) and all the shareholders of BVI Wetouch (each, a “BVI Shareholder” and collectively, the “BVI Shareholders”), to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of BVI Wetouch in exchange for the issuance to the BVI Shareholders an aggregate of 28,000,000 shares (1,400,000 shares post-Reverse Stock Split) of the Company’s common stock (the “Reverse Merger”). In the Reverse Merger, each ordinary share of BVI Wetouch was exchanged for 2,800 shares (140 shares post-Reverse Stock Split) of common stock of Wetouch. Immediately after the closing of the Reverse Merger on October 9, 2020, the Company had a total of 31,396,394 (1,569,820 shares post-Reverse Stock Split) issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result of the Reverse Merger, BVI Wetouch became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

BVI Wetouch is a holding company whose only asset, held through a subsidiary, is 100% of the registered capital of Sichuan Wetouch Technology Co., Ltd. (“Sichuan Wetouch”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”). Sichuan Wetouch is primarily engaged in the business of research and development, manufacture, and distribution of touchscreen displays to customers both in the PRC and overseas. The touchscreen products, which are manufactured by the Company, are primarily for use in financial terminals, automotive, Point of Sales, gaming, lottery, medical, Human-Machine Interface (HMI), and other specialized industries.

The Reverse Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein BVI Wetouch is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of BVI Wetouch have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. The number of shares, par value amount, and additional paid-in capital in the prior years are retrospectively adjusted accordingly.

Corporate History of BVI Wetouch

BVI Wetouch was incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on August 14, 2020. It became the holding company of Hong Kong Wetouch Electronics Technology Limited (“Hong Kong Wetouch”) on September 11, 2020.

Hong Kong Wetouch Technology Limited (“HK Wetouch”), was incorporated as a holding company under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “SAR”) on December 3, 2020. On March 2, 2021, HK Wetouch acquired all shares of Hong Kong Wetouch. Due to the fact that Hong Kong Wetouch and HK Wetouch are both under the same sole stockholder, the acquisition is accounted for under common control.

In June 2021, Hong Kong Wetouch completed its dissolution process pursuant to the minutes of its special stockholder meeting.

Sichuan Wetouch was formed on May 6, 2011 in the PRC and became a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) in PRC on February 23, 2017. On July 19, 2016, Sichuan Wetouch was 100% held by HK Wetouch.

On December 30, 2020, Sichuan Vtouch was incorporated in Chengdu, Sichuan, under the PRC laws.

In March 2021, pursuant to local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national plan, Sichuan Wetouch was under the government directed relocation order. Sichuan Vtouch took over the operating business of Sichuan Wetouch.

On March 30, 2023, an independent third party acquired all shares of Sichuan Wetouch for a nominal amount.

As a result of the above restructuring, HK Wetouch became the sole stockholder of Sichuan Vtouch.

The following diagram illustrates the Company’s current corporate structure:

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Wetouch and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation

(b) Uses of estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the allowance for estimated uncollectible receivables, fair values of financial instruments, inventory valuations, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, operating lease, the recoverability of long-lived assets, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, revenue recognition and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(c) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash includes currency on hand and deposits held by banks that can be added or withdrawn without limitation.

(d) Accounts receivables, net

Accounts receivable primarily consists of receivables from customers, which are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less an allowance for credit losses.

The Company adopted ASC 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Loss to estimate the allowance of credit losses for accounts receivable based upon the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model. The CECL model requires an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of accounts receivable since initial recognition, and accounts receivable with similar risk characteristics are grouped together when estimating CECL. In assessing the CECL, the Company considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical credit loss experience, adjusted for relevant factors impacting collectability and forward-looking information indicative of external market conditions. While the Company uses the best information available in making determination, the ultimate recovery of recorded receivables is also dependent upon future economic events and other conditions that may be beyond the Company’s control. Accounts receivable which are deemed to be uncollectible are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. There is a time lag between when the Company estimates a portion of or the entire account balances to be uncollectible and when a write off of the account balances is taken. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

(e) Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a weighted average. For work-in-process and manufactured inventories, cost consists of raw materials, direct labor and an allocated portion of the Company’s production overhead. The Company writes down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. For finished goods and work-in-process, if the estimated net realizable value for an inventory item, which is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs to completion and disposal, is lower than its cost, the specific inventory item is written down to its estimated net realizable value. Net realizable value for raw materials is based on replacement cost. Provisions for inventory write-downs are included in the cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Inventories are carried at this lower cost basis until sold or scrapped. Reversal of obsolete inventory and write-off inventory were $36,971 and $54,873 were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(f) Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their expected useful lives, as follows:

Useful life
Buildings 20 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Vehicles 4 years

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income in other income or expenses.

Construction in progress, funded by Company’s working capital, represents manufacturing facilities and office building under construction, is stated at cost and transferred to property, plant and equipment when it is substantially ready for its intended use. No depreciation is recorded for construction in progress.

The construction of the new facility was delayed first due to the impact of COVID 19 and later the supply of the construction materials. The management estimate that construction in progress for our new facilities will be completed by the end of first half of 2027 and will transfer construction in progress to property, plant and equipment to start depreciation.

(g) Land use right, net

A land use right in the PRC represents an exclusive right to occupy, use and develop a piece of land during the contractual term of the land use right. Land use right is usually paid in one lump sum at the date the right is granted or at the date of the prepayment pursuant to the land use right transfer contract with the local government. The prepayment usually covers the entire duration period of the land use right. The lump sum advance payment is capitalized and recorded as land use right and then charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period of the right.

On August 6, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau (“Wenjiang Bureau”) for the purchase of a land use right of a parcel of land of 131,010 square feet (12,171. 28 square meters) for a consideration of RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) for the Company’s new facility. The Company paid the consideration in full by November 18, 2021 and recorded in the prepayment.

Pursuant to the contract, Sichuan Vtouch will construct a new facility on this parcel according to the specifications. Once the Project is fully completed, Wenjiang Bureau shall transfer the title of land use right to Sichuan Vtouch for 20 years.

The Company’s new facility started in August 2021 yet was delayed and suspended due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and government-ordered shutdowns in China. The Company has rescheduled and extended the completion by first half of 2027 with the production at the new facilities will commencing by the end of 2027.

During the years ended December 31, 2025, management assessed the probability of the obtaining the land use right upon the completion of the new facility, reclassified prepayment of RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) to land use right, started the amortization by a useful life of approximately 16 years.

The amortization expense of land use rights was US$16,718 for the years ended December 31, 2025, and included in general and administrative expenses.

Useful life
Land use right 16 years

(h) Lease

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) for all periods presented. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for all contracts with lease terms of 12 months or less.

Under the guidance of ASU 2016-02, an entity is required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements.

The Company’s lease terms include options to renew or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option. The Company determines if a contract contains a lease based on whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset that the Company does not own and whether it has the right to direct the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are recognized as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease incentives received. Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), because the interest rate implicit in most of the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The IBR is a hypothetical rate based on the Company’s understanding of what its credit rating would be and the resulting interest it would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over the lease term on a collateralized basis. Lease payments may be fixed or variable, however, only fixed payments or in-substance fixed payments are included in the Company’s lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments are recognized in operating expenses in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

The lease right-of-use assets are initially measured at the carrying amount of the lease liability and adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, remaining balance of lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, or impairment charges relating to the right-of-use-asset. Lease expense for minimum lease payments exclusive of value-added tax is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients at transition. The Company elected certain practical expedients that must be elected as a package, which permit the Company to not reassess, under the new standard, prior conclusions about (1) lease identification, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company elected a short-term lease exception policy, which allows entities to not apply Topic 842 to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and a hindsight policy, which allows an entity to include current considerations for existing leases when determining initial lease terms. The Company has also elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for all leases and elected to utilize an IBR (incremental borrowing rate) that equals the risk free rate plus premium for all leases when calculating the lease liability.

(i) Common stock purchase warrants

The Company also analyzed the Warrants in accordance with ASC 815, to determine whether the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative and, if so, whether the Warrants meet the scope exception of ASC 815-40, which is that contracts issued or held by the reporting entity that are both (1) indexed to its own stock and (2) classified in stockholders’ equity shall not be considered to be derivative instruments for purposes of ASC 815-40.

The Company concluded that the warrants issued in the financings in November and December 2021 should be treated as a derivative liability because these warrants are entitled to a price adjustment to allow the exercise price to be increased or reduced in the event the Company issues or sells any additional shares of common stock at a price per share other than the then-applicable exercise price or without consideration, which is typically referred to as a “Down-round protection” or “anti-dilution” provision. According to ASC 815-40, the “Down-round protection” provision is not considered to be an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares which leads the warrants to fail to be qualified as indexed to the Company’s own stock and then to fail to meet the scope exceptions of ASC 815. Therefore, the Company accounted for the warrants as derivative liabilities under ASC 815. Pursuant to ASC 815, derivatives are measured at fair value and re-measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings at each reporting period.

The Company used a black-scholes-pricing model to estimate the fair values of common stock purchase warrants at the balance sheet dates.

The Note Warrant (see details in NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE-b) Note Warrant) was issued in 2021 which was valid for three years and expired during the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company recorded $378,371 gain on changes of fair value of common stock purchase warrant liability for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(j) Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

  • Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
  • Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
  • Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, short-term bank loans, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, taxes payable and due to related parties, common stock purchase warrants liability, approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 based upon the nature of the assets and liabilities.

(k) Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. An asset or liability categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Accounting guidance also describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates.

(l) Impairment of long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, land use rights, are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset or asset group to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying value of an asset or asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset or asset group. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Assets to be disposed are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. There was $175,426 and nil impairment of construction in progress recognized for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(m) Foreign Currency Translation

The Company uses US dollars as the reporting currency. The Company’s subsidiary HK Wetouch’s functional currency for HK Wetouch is Hong Kong dollar. The functional currency of Sichuan Vtouch is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been translated into US$. Assets and liabilities accounts are translated using the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the results of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded loss of $54,626 and gain of $52,211 on foreign currency transactions in the line of general & administration expenses, respectively.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in creating the consolidated financial statements in this report:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Year-end spot rate US$1=RMB 6.9931 US$1=RMB 7.2993
Average rate US$1=RMB 7.1875 US$1=RMB 7.1957

(n) Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Therefore, no adjustments to opening retained earnings were necessary.

ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with customers, establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

ASC 606 requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way the Company records its revenue. The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that would result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams.

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it transfers its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. The Company accounts for the revenue generated from sales of its products primarily to its customers in PRC and overseas, as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions, is subject to inventory risk, has latitude in establishing prices, and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide customers the specified goods, which the Company has control of the goods and has the ability to direct the use of goods to obtain substantially all the benefits. All of the Company’s contracts have one single performance obligation as the promise is to transfer the individual goods to customers, and there is no separately identifiable other promises in the contracts. The Company’s revenue streams are recognized at a point in time when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at delivery. The Company’s products are sold with no right of return and the Company does not provide other credits or sales incentive to customers. The Company’s sales are net of value added tax (“VAT”) and business tax and surcharges collected on behalf of tax authorities in respect of product sales.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit quality. Contract assets are recognized for in related accounts receivable. Contract liabilities are recognized for contracts where payment has been received in advance of delivery. The contract liability balance can vary significantly depending on the timing when an order is placed and when shipment or delivery occurs. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, other than accounts receivable and advances from customers, the Company had no other material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. Costs of fulfilling customers’ purchase orders, such as shipping, handling and delivery, which occur prior to the transfer of control, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense when incurred.

Disaggregation of Revenues

The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by geography, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are disclosed in Note 15 to the financial statements.

(o) Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling expenses represents primarily costs of payroll, benefits, commissions for sales representatives and advertising expenses. General and administrative expenses represent primarily payroll and benefits costs for administrative employees, rent and operating costs of office premises, depreciation and amortization of office facilities, professional fees and other administrative expenses.

(p) Segment reporting

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company evaluated its portfolio of service to determine whether certain services exhibit similar characteristics, such that they should be grouped together in the Company’s disclosure. The Company derives revenue primarily from selling various touchscreens to customers and the products have similar economic characteristics with respect to raw materials, vendors, marketing and promotions, customers and methods of distribution. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. The CODM confers regularly to review trends in operating metrics, revisit, assess, and adjust significant strategic and operational matters, and make resource adjustments as needed. These discussions include exploring opportunities for responding immediately and effectively to operational adjustments, aligning ongoing business activities with corporate-level objectives, improving customer satisfaction, and enhancing corporate culture, among other management concerns. The primary measure of segment revenue and profitability for the Company’s operating segment is considered to be consolidated revenue and net income. Certain financial information, such as revenue, can be disaggregated, whereas cost of revenues, selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses and other income (expenses), are mixed and not disaggregated. Hence, with respect to costs of revenues and operating expenses and other income (expenses), no discrete financial information beyond the consolidated results is prepared and presented to the CODM.

As all of the Company’s assets are all located in the PRC, no geographical segment information of assets is presented. The CODM does not review any information regarding total assets on a reportable segment basis. Through the evaluation, the CODM determined that the Company has only one reporting segment.

(q) Share-Based Compensation

The Company awards share options and other equity-based instruments to its employees, directors and third party service providers (collectively “share-based payments”). Compensation cost related to such awards is measured based on the fair value of the instrument on the grant date. The Company recognizes the compensation cost over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period. The amount of cost recognized is adjusted to reflect the expected forfeiture prior to vesting. When no future services are required to be performed by the employee in exchange for an award of equity instruments, and if such award does not contain a performance or market condition, the cost of the award is expensed on the grant date. The Company recognizes compensation cost for an award with only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award, provided that the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized at any date at least equals the portion of the grant-date value of such award that is vested at that date.

(r) Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and income tax purposes using enacted rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established, as needed, to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the effect of uncertain income tax positions only if those positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. There were no such interest or penalty for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 (“the Tax Act”) was signed into law, which among other effects, reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 34% (or 35% in certain cases) beginning in 2018, and requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on certain unrepatriated earnings from non-U.S. subsidiaries that is payable over eight years. No tax was due under this provision. The Tax Act also makes the receipt of future non-U.S. sourced income of non-U.S. subsidiaries tax-free to U.S. companies and creates a new minimum tax on the earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries relating to the parent’s deductions for payments to the subsidiaries.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("the Act") was signed into law. The Act makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing, increases the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit to 35 percent from 25 percent, and makes modifications to the international tax framework. We are currently evaluating the impact of the Act upon our future effective tax rate, tax liabilities, and cash taxes.

(s) Value added tax (“VAT”)

Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price. Since April 1, 2019, VAT rate was lowered from 16% to 13%. The VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing or acquiring its finished products. The Company recorded a VAT payable or recoverable net of VAT payments in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

For export sales, VAT is not imposed on gross sales price, but the VAT related to purchasing raw materials is refunded after the export is completed.

(t) Earnings per Share

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, warrants were included for the dilutive EPS calculation, respectively.

(u) Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in RMB to US$ is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

(v) Recent accounting pronouncements

In October 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements—codification amendments in response to SEC’s disclosure Update and Simplification initiative which amend the disclosure or presentation requirements of codification subtopic 230-10 Statement of Cash Flows—Overall, 250-10 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—Overall, 260-10 Earnings Per Share—Overall, 270-10 Interim Reporting—Overall, 440-10 Commitments—Overall, 470-10 Debt—Overall, 505-10 Equity—Overall, 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging—Overall, 860-30 Transfers and Servicing—Secured Borrowing and Collateral, 932-235 Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas—Notes to Financial Statements, 946-20 Financial Services—Investment Companies—Investment Company Activities, and 974-10 Real Estate—Real Estate Investment Trusts—Overall. The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of above subtopics. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements or those that must provide financial statements to the SEC for securities purposes without contractual transfer restrictions, the effective date aligns with the date when the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. Early adoption is not allowed. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later from the date of the SEC’s removal.

ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, establishes incremental disaggregation of income tax disclosures pertaining to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires prospective application with the option to apply it retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 beginning January 1, 2025. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 — OPERATING LEASE

In March 2021, pursuant to the local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national plan, the Company was under the government directed relocation order to relocate from a parcel of state-owned land where we maintained our executive offices, research and development facilities and factories. The Company received a total amount of RMB115.2 million (approximately $16.5 million) from the local government to start the construction of the new facility in a neighboring Chengdu Wenjiang District.

On March 16, 2021, in order to minimize interruption of the Company’s business, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a leasing agreement with Sichuan Renshou Shigao Tianfu Investment Co., Ltd. (later renamed as Meishan Huantian Industrial Co., Ltd.), a limited liability company owned by the local government, to lease the property, and all buildings, facilities and equipment thereon (the “Demised Properties) of Sichuan Wetouch, commencing from April 1, 2021 until December 31, 2021 at a monthly rent of RMB300,000 ($42,899), which period was extended to October 31, 2022.

Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates, applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Deferred tax assets: As of December 31, 2025 As of December 31, 2024
Allowance for credit losses $3,699 $11,056

NOTE 11 — CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE

a) Convertible promissory notes

In October, November, and December 2021, the Company, issued seven (7) convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) of an aggregate principal amount of $2,250,000, due in one year with discounted issuance price at 90.0%. The Notes bore interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum, payable in one year and matured on October 27, November 5, November 16, November 29, and December 2, 2022, respectively. Net proceeds after debt issuance costs and debt discounts were approximately $1,793,000. Debt issuance costs in the amount of $162,000 are recorded as deferred charges and included in the other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The debt discount and debt issuance costs are amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method over the terms of the Notes.

Unless the Notes are converted, the principal amounts of the Notes, and accrued interest at the rate of 8% per annum, are payable on the one-year anniversary of the issuance of the Notes (the “Maturity Date”). If the Company fails to satisfy its loan obligation by the Maturity Date, the default interest rate will be 16%.

The Lenders have the right to convert any or all of the principal and accrued interest on the Notes into shares of common stock of the Company on the earlier of (i) 180 calendar days after the issuance date of the Notes or (ii) the closing of a listing for trading of the common stock of the Company on a national securities exchange offering resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $15,000,000 or more (an “Uplist Offering”). If the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180th calendar date after the issuance date of the Notes, the conversion price shall be 70% of the per share offering price in the Uplist Offering; otherwise, the conversion price is $15.0 per share.

Subject to customary exceptions, if the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares of common stock at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price of the Notes, the conversion rate of the Notes shall be reduced to such lower price.

Until the Notes are either paid or converted in their entirety, the Company agreed with the Lenders not to sell any securities convertible into shares of common stock of the Company (i) at a conversion price that is based on the trading price of the stock or (ii) with a conversion price that is subject to being reset at a future date or upon an event directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the common stock. The Company also agreed to not issue securities at a future determined price.

The Lenders have the right to require the Company to repay the Notes if the Company receives cash proceeds, including proceeds from customers and the issuance of equity (including in the Uplist Offering). If the Company prepays the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay a 10% prepayment penalty.

From December 28, 2022 to April 6, 2023, the lenders of five outstanding Notes and the Company entered into an amendment to the Notes (“Amendment No. 1 to Promissory Note”) extending the term of the Notes for an additional 6 months.

From August 29 to September 9, 2023, the lenders of the outstanding Notes and the Company entered into an amendment to the Notes (“Amendment No. 2 to Promissory Note”) that upon the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Uplist”), the Company shall within three (3) business days after the Uplist, pay to the Holders amounts equal to 105% of the total outstanding balance of the Convertible Debenture.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, principal and default charges totaling $1,200,000 were converted into 25,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, principal, accrued and unpaid interest and default charges totaling $1,038,426 were converted into 69,228 shares of common stock of the Company. Two notes were fully converted.

There were no convertible promissory notes as of February 23, 2024.

During the years ended December 31, 2024, amortization of discounts and issuance cost of the notes were $5,715.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized interest expenses of the Notes in the amount $1,169,974 respectively.

b) Warrants

Accounting for Warrants

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also issued to the lenders seven (7) three-year warrants (the “Note Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 90,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”).

The Note Warrants issued to the lenders granted the holders the rights to purchase up to 10,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $25 per share. However, if the Company closes an Uplist Offering on or before the 180th calendar date after the issuance date of the Note Warrants, then the exercise price shall be 125% of the offering price of a share in the Uplist Offering. If the adjusted exercise price as a result of the Uplist Offering is less than $25 per share, then the number of shares for which the Warrants are exercisable shall be increased such that the total exercise price, after taking into account the decrease in the per share exercise price, shall be equal to the total exercise price prior to such adjustment.

The lenders have the right to exercise the Note Warrants on a cashless basis if the highest traded price of a share of common stock of the Company during the 150 trading days prior to exercise of the Note Warrants exceeds the exercise price, unless there is an effective registration statement of the Company which covers the resale of the Lenders.

If the Company issues shares or any securities convertible into shares at an effective price per share lower than the exercise price of the Note Warrants, the exercise price of the Note Warrants shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to customary exceptions.

The lenders may not convert the Notes or exercise the Note Warrants if such conversion or exercise will result in each of the lenders, together with any affiliates, beneficially owning in excess of 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately after giving effect to such exercise unless such lender notifies the Company at least 61 days prior to such exercise.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, two lenders exercised the Note Warrants cashlessly for 22,338 shares of common stock of the Company.

During thethe years ended December 31, 2024, one lender exercised the Note Warrants cashlessly for 2,725 shares of common stock.

As the Note Warrant was issued in 2021 and was valid for three years, the remaining 38430 Note Warrants expired during the year ended December 31, 2024.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $378,371 gain on changes in the fair value of common stock purchase warrants liability using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

(c) Registration Rights Agreements

Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreements between the Company and lenders of the Notes, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the shares of common stock underlying the Notes and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Note Warrants within sixty days from the date of each Registration Rights Agreement. The Company also granted the lenders piggyback registration rights on such securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreements.

No other financial asset carries a significant exposure to credit risk. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of each customer’s financial condition. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts and such allowances in the aggregate have not exceeded management’s estimates.

The Company has its cash in bank deposits primarily at state owned banks located in the PRC. Historically, deposits in PRC banks have been secured due to the state policy of protecting depositors’ interests. The PRC promulgated a Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, effective June 1, 2007, which contains provisions for the implementation of measures for the bankruptcy of PRC banks. The bank deposits with financial institutions in the PRC are insured by the government authority for up to RMB500,000.

In addition, natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and typhoons, as well as actual or threatened war, terrorist activities, political unrest, civil strife, and other geopolitical events, could also materially disrupt our business operations. We are also vulnerable to other calamities, including fire, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, riots, and system or internet failures. Any of these events may cause interruptions, damage to property, production delays, or loss of data, which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we identified certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.

The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal controls over financial reporting, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting.

Our reporting obligations as a public company place a significant strain on our management and operational and financial resources and systems. Effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting may result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn may harm our business and negatively impact the trading price of our stock. Furthermore, we anticipate that we will continue to incur considerable costs and use significant management time and other resources in an effort to comply with Section 404 and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

In connection with the auditing of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

  • (i) the lack of sufficient competent financial reporting and accounting personnel with appropriate understanding of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting requirements to design and implement key controls over financial reporting process to address complex U.S. GAAP accounting issues and related disclosures, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements;
  • limited functional internal audit department or personnel that monitors the consistencies of the preventive internal control procedures as well as insufficient policies and procedures in internal audit function to ensure that our policies and procedures have been carried out as planned

As defined in the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions planned include:

  • hiring more qualified accounting personnel with relevant U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience and qualifications to strengthen our financial reporting function and to set up a financial and system control framework;
  • appointing Ms. Xing Tang, who has extensive experience in financial reporting and internal controls, including familiarity with Nasdaq financial reporting and compliance requirements, as its Chief Financial Officer in July 2024, and who served as Chief Financial Officer of Elong Power Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: ELPW) from August 2013 to June 2024.
  • strengthening accounting record system with access control and financial reporting procedures, including organizing regular training for our accounting staff, especially training related to U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements;
  • Continue to cooperate with operation teams to ensure a control environment in place, and monitor the effectiveness of operations on existing controls and procedures.

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment, and believe that these remediation efforts will deliver improvements in our control environment. Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the relevance of our risk-based approach and the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

We are heavily dependent on our top customers. If we fail to acquire new customers or retain existing customers in a cost-effective manner, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We are heavily dependent on our top customers, each of which accounted for 10% or more of our revenues. We currently sell our products primarily to customers in the PRC and to a lesser extent, to overseas customers in Europe and East Asia, including South Korea and Taiwan.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, our top five customers accounted for approximately 24.3%, 17.3%, 15.6%, 13.3%, and 11.1%, respectively, of our total revenues.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, our top five customers accounted for approximately 22.0%, 19.1%, 15.3%, 14.5% and 11.5%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers cost-effectively, especially our top customers, is crucial to driving net revenues growth and achieving profitability. We have invested significantly in branding, sales and marketing to acquire and retain customers since our inception. For example, we attend domestic and international expos and exhibitions to market our products and attract new customers. We also expect to continue to invest significantly to acquire new customers and retain existing ones, especially our top customers. There can be no assurance that new customers will stay with us, or that the net revenues from new customers we acquire will ultimately exceed the cost of acquiring those customers. In addition, if our existing customers, especially our top customers no longer find our products appealing, or if our competitors offer more attractive products, prices, discounts or better customer service, our existing customers may lose interest in us, decrease their orders or even stop ordering from us. If we are unable to retain our existing customers, especially our top customers or to acquire new customers in a cost-effective manner, our revenues may decrease and our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Our operating history may not be indicative of our future growth or financial results and we may not be able to sustain our historical growth rates.

Our operating history may not be indicative of our future growth or financial results. There is no assurance that we will be able to grow in future periods. Our growth rates may decline for any number of possible reasons and some of them are beyond our control, including decreasing customer demand, increasing competition, declining growth of the touchscreen display industry in general, emergence of alternative business models, or changes in government policies or general economic conditions. We will continue to expand our sales network and product offerings to bring greater convenience to our customers and to increase our customer base and number of transactions. However, the execution of our expansion plan is subject to uncertainty and the total number of items sold and number of transacting customers may not grow at the rate we expect for the reasons stated above. If our growth rates decline, investors’ perceptions of our business and prospects may be adversely affected and the market price of our common stock could decline.

Failure to secure the certificate of land use right for a new parcel from the local PRC government for the construction of our new buildings and facilities, and failure to acquire and install new production lines on the new parcel may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

On August 6, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with the Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau for the purchase of a land use right for a parcel of land spanning 131,010 square feet, for a consideration of approximately RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) for the Company’s new facility. The Company paid the consideration in full on November 18, 2021. We will obtain the certificate of land use right for the new parcel from the local government in the upon the completion of the new facility by the first half of 2027. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the required certificate of land use right in a timely manner, or at all. The failure of obtaining the certificate will adversely affect our business operations. Additionally, the development of this site is subject to various regulatory approvals, including construction land planning permit (received in January 2022), construction project planning permit (received in January 2022), and construction engineering license (received July 2022). Failure to obtain additional approvals from the local government, if required, will subject us to fines or suspension of the projects in accordance with relevant PRC laws and regulations.

In addition, our ability to install and operate new production lines on this parcel is contingent upon the successful acquisition and setup of equipment, compliance with applicable environmental, construction, and safety regulations, and the availability of sufficient financing and human resources. Any failure or significant delay in obtaining the land use rights, completing construction, or acquiring and installing production lines may materially and adversely affect our ability to expand our operations, meet growing customer demand, and achieve our strategic objectives. Such delays or failures could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

As of the date of this Annual Report, we estimate to complete the building construction by the first half of 2027 and commence production in by the end of 2027, assuming we have obtained the land use right by then, but there is no assurance and we may need extended time to achieve our business plan. If we fail to complete such construction prior to estimated period and the extended period, if any, we will have to cease all or part of our operations, and as a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to risks related to construction of our factory in Sichuan Province, China.

We are constructing new facilities and office buildings on the new parcel located in Sichuan Province, China. As of the date of this Annual Report, we estimate receiving the certificate of land use right from the local government in the first half of 2027. We plan to complete the building construction by first half of 2027 and commence production by the end of 2027.

The construction could experience delays or other difficulties, and will require significant capital. We may not generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy our capital expenditure commitments. We may need to raise additional capital to fund a portion of our capital expenditures, and such capital may not be available when needed or on terms favorable to our company. The construction may not be completed on schedule due to various reasons, such as supply chain issues and increased difficulty for workforce recruitment, which could result in increased expenses and construction costs, and may result in reduced profitability of the project. Any failure to complete the construction plan on schedule and within budget could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The construction may be subject to legal claims and proceedings instituted by contractors, workers and other parties involved in such project from time to time. Such claims and proceedings may include claims in respect of personal injuries and labor compensation in relation to the construction project. The construction of a factory is also subject to risks related to health and safety incidents and site accidents and any non-compliance with building codes and other local regulations. If any of the aforementioned incidents or accidents were to occur, it could have a substantial negative impact on our success and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Economic recessions could have a significant, adverse impact on our business.

Our revenues are generated from sales of our capacitive touchscreen products both domestically and internationally and we anticipate that revenues from such sales will continue to represent the substantial portion of our total revenues in the near future. Our sales and earnings can also be affected by changes in the general economy.

The touchscreen display industry historically has experienced cyclical fluctuations in financial results due to economic recession, downturns in business cycles of our customers, interest rate fluctuations, and other economic factors beyond our control. Deterioration in the economic environment subjects our business to various risks, which may have a material and adverse impact on our operating results and cause us to not reach our long-term growth goals. For example, a downturn in the economy could directly affect the discretionary spending power of our customers and in turn, depress the number of orders for our products.

We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims, which may be expensive to defend and may disrupt our business and operations.

We cannot be certain that our operations or any aspects of our business do not or will not infringe upon or otherwise violate intellectual property rights held by third parties. We have not but in the future may be, subject to legal proceedings and claims relating to the intellectual property rights of others. There could also be existing intellectual property of which we are not aware that our products may inadvertently infringe. We cannot assure you that holders of intellectual property purportedly relating to some aspect of our technology or business, if any such holders exist, would not seek to enforce such intellectual property against us in China, or any other jurisdictions. If we are found to have violated the intellectual property rights of others, we may be subject to liability for our infringement activities or may be prohibited from using such intellectual property, and we may incur licensing fees or be forced to develop alternatives of our own. In addition, we may incur significant expenses, and may be forced to divert management’s time and other resources from our business and operations to defend against these infringement claims, regardless of their merits. Successful infringement or licensing claims made against us may result in significant monetary liabilities and may materially disrupt our business and operations by restricting or prohibiting our use of the intellectual property in question, and our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Further, the application and interpretation of China’s patent laws and the procedures and standards for granting patents in China are still evolving and are uncertain, and we cannot assure you that PRC courts or regulatory authorities would agree with our analysis.

We have a significant amount of accounts receivable, which could become uncollectible.

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $6.5 million in accounts receivable. Our accounts receivable primarily include balance due from customers when our products are sold and delivered to customers. Our customers are required to make full payment within three to six months from delivery date, although our industry typical payment term is 180 days from delivery. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we did not provide any extended payment terms to any of our customers. Deteriorating conditions in, bankruptcies, or financial difficulties of a customer or within their industries generally may impair the financial condition of our customers and hinder their ability to pay us on a timely basis or at all, and accounts receivable are written off against allowances only after exhaustive collection efforts. The failure or delay in payment by one or more of our customers could reduce our cash flows and adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

Our industry is cyclical, with recurring periods of capacity increases. As a result, price fluctuations in response to supply and demand imbalances could harm our results of operations.

The touchscreen display industry in general is characterized by cyclical market conditions. From time to time, the industry has been subject to imbalances between excess supply and a slowdown in demand, and in certain periods, resulting in declines in selling prices. In addition, capacity expansion anticipated in the touchscreen display industry may lead to excess capacity. Capacity expansion in the industry may be due to scheduled ramp-up of new manufacturing facilities, and any large increases in capacity as a result of such expansion could further drive down the selling prices of our products, which would affect our results of operations. We cannot assure you that any continuing or further decrease in selling prices or future downturns resulting from excess capacity or other factors affecting the industry will not be severe or that any such continuation, decrease or downturn would not seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to maintain or increase our revenues will primarily depend upon our ability to maintain market share, increase unit sales of existing products and introduce and sell new products that offset the anticipated fluctuation and long-term declines in the selling prices of our existing products. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain or expand market share, increase unit sales, and introduce and sell new products, to the extent necessary to compensate for market oversupply.

Failure to maintain the quality and safety of our products could have a material and adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

The quality and safety of our products are critical to our success. We pay close attention to quality control, monitoring each step in the process from procurement to production and from warehouse to delivery. Yet, maintaining consistent product quality depends significantly on the effectiveness of our quality control system, which in turn depends on a number of factors, including but not limited to, the design of our quality control system, employee training to ensure that our employees adhere to and implement our quality control policies and procedures and the effectiveness of monitoring any potential violation of our quality control policies and procedures. There can be no assurance that our quality control system will always prove to be effective.

In addition, the quality of the products or services provided by our suppliers or service providers is subject to factors beyond our control, including the effectiveness and the efficiency of their quality control system, among others. There can be no assurance that our suppliers or service providers may always be able to adopt appropriate quality control systems and meet our stringent quality control requirements in respect of the products or services they provide. Any failure of our suppliers or service providers to provide satisfactory products or services could harm our reputation and adversely impact our operations. In addition, we may be unable to receive sufficient compensation from suppliers and service providers for the losses caused by them.

We face intense competition in the touchscreen display industry in general. If we fail to compete effectively, we may lose market share and customers, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The touchscreen display industry is intensely competitive in general. We face less competition as we produce medium- to large-sized capacitive touchscreens which are specially tailored to certain industries, such as industrial HMI, gaming, financing, lottery, automotive, medical, and POS, and requires more stable supply, longer guaranty and life span, compared with small size touchscreens which are characteristic with shorter life cycle and guaranty but more demand in quantity. However, we still have some competitors competing in China and globally with us. Our competitors may have more financial, technical, geographical advantage, marketing and other resources than we do and may be more experienced and able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and support of their business. Some competitors are well-established in China and globally and any defensive measures they take in response to our expansion could hinder our growth and adversely affect our sales and results of operations.

Furthermore, increased competition may reduce our market share and profitability and require us to increase our sales and marketing efforts and capital commitment in the future, which could negatively affect our results of operations or force us to incur further losses. Although we have accumulated some and continuously growing our customer base, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so in the future against current or future competitors, and such competitive pressures may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we do not obtain substantial additional financing, our ability to execute our business plan may be impaired.

Due to the withdrawal of the land use right to the Property and cancellation of our ownership certificates pertaining to the buildings on the Property by the local government pursuant to the Guidelines and the Compensation Agreement, on August 6, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with the Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau for the purchase of a land use right for a parcel of land spanning 131,010 square feet, for a consideration of approximately RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) for the Company’s new facility. The Company paid the consideration in full on November 18, 2021. We are in the process of obtaining the certificate of land use right for the new parcel and expect to receive the certificate from the local government in the first half of 2027.

As of the date of this Annual Report, we estimate to finish the building construction by the first half of 2027 and commence production by the end of 2027, but there is no assurance and we may need extended time to achieve our business plan. If we fail to complete such acquisition and construction within the estimated period, if any, we will have to cease all or part of our operations, and as a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, our plans may call for significant new investments in research and development, marketing, expanded productions capacity, and working capital for raw materials and other items. Should our capital needs be higher than our estimation, we will be required to seek additional investments, loans or debt financing to fully pursue our business plans. Such additional investment may not be available to us on terms which are favorable or acceptable. Should we be unable to meet our full capital needs, our ability to fully implement our business plan will be impaired.

Any adjustment of related party transaction pricing could lead to additional taxes, and therefore substantially reduce our consolidated net income and the value of your investment.

The tax regime in China is rapidly evolving and there is significant uncertainty for taxpayers in China as PRC tax laws may be interpreted in significantly different ways. The PRC tax authorities may assert that we or our subsidiaries owe and/or are required to pay additional taxes on previous or future revenue or income. In particular, under applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities. If the PRC tax authorities determine that any contractual arrangements were not entered into on an arm’s length basis and therefore constitute a favorable transfer pricing, the PRC tax liabilities of the relevant subsidiaries could be increased, which could increase our overall tax liabilities. In addition, the PRC tax authorities may impose late payment interest. Our net income may be materially reduced if our tax liabilities increase.

A significant interruption in the operations of our third-party suppliers could potentially disrupt our operations.

We have limited control over the operations of our third-party suppliers and other business partners and any significant interruption in their operations may have an adverse impact on our operations. For example, a significant interruption in the operations of our supplier’s manufacturing facilities could cause delays or termination of shipments of the raw materials to us, which may cause delays or termination of shipments of our products to our customers, thus resulting in penalties or fines due to our breach of contract. If we could not solve the impact of the interruptions of operations of our third-party suppliers, our business operations and financial results may be materially and adversely affected.

We face the risk of fluctuations in the cost, availability and quality of our raw materials, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

The cost, availability and quality of the raw materials, such as indium tin oxide glasses and panels, are important to our operations. If the cost of raw materials increases due to large market price fluctuation or due to any other reason, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. Lack of availability of these raw materials, whether due to shortages in supply, delays or interruptions in processing, failure of timely delivery or otherwise, could interrupt our operations and adversely affect our financial results.

We are dependent upon key executives and highly qualified managers and we cannot assure their retention.

Our success depends, in part, upon the continued services of key members of our management. Our executives’ and managers’ knowledge of the market, our business and our Company represents a key strength of our business, which cannot be easily replicated. The success of our business strategy and our future growth also depend on our ability to attract, train, retain and motivate skilled managerial, sales, administration, development and operating personnel.

There can be no assurance that our existing personnel will be adequate or qualified to carry out our strategy and operations, or that we will be able to hire or retain experienced, qualified employees to carry out our strategy and operations. The loss of one or more of our key management or operating personnel, or the failure to attract and retain additional key personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We do not have long-term contracts with our suppliers and they can reduce order quantities or terminate their sales to us at any time.

Our PRC subsidiary does not have long term contracts with our suppliers. At any time, our suppliers can reduce the quantities of products they sell to us, or cease selling products to us altogether. Such reductions or terminations could have a material adverse impact on our revenues, profits and financial condition.

If we fail to adopt new technologies to evolving customer needs or emerging industry standards, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

To remain competitive, we must continue to stay abreast of the constantly evolving industry trends and to enhance and improve our technology accordingly. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to identify, develop, acquire or license leading technologies useful in our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to use new technologies effectively or meet customer’s requirements. If we are unable to adapt in a cost-effective and timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer preferences, whether for technical, legal, financial or other reasons, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

We may experience significant liability claims or complaints from customers, or adverse publicity involving our products and our services.

We face an inherent risk of liability claims or complaints from our customers. We take our customers’ complaints seriously and endeavor to reduce such complaints by implementing various remedial measures. Nevertheless, we cannot assure you that we can successfully prevent or address all customer complaints.

Any complaints or claims against us, even if meritless and unsuccessful, may divert management attention and other resources from our business and adversely affect our business and operations. Customers may lose confidence in us and our brand, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations. Furthermore, negative publicity including but not limited to negative online reviews on social media and crowd-sourced review platforms, industry findings or media reports related to safety and quality of our products, whether or not accurate, and whether or not concerning our products, can adversely affect our business, results of operations and reputation.

We may experience losses on inventories.

Frequent new product introductions in the technology industry can result in a decline in the selling prices of our products and the obsolescence of our existing inventory. This can result in a decrease in the stated value of our inventory, which we value at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

We manage our inventory based on our customers’ and our own forecasts. Although we regularly make adjustments based on market conditions, we typically deliver our goods to our customers several weeks after a firm order is placed. While we maintain open channels of communication with our top customers to avoid unexpected decreases in firm orders or subsequent changes to placed orders, and try to minimize our inventory levels, such actions by our customers may have a material adverse effect on our inventory management and our results of operations.

We have no business liability or disruption insurance, which could expose us to significant costs and business disruption.

The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development, and insurance companies in China currently offer limited business-related insurance products. We do not have any business liability or disruption insurance to cover our operations. We have determined that the costs of insuring for these risks and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. Any uninsured risks may result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We may incur liabilities that are not covered by insurance.

While we seek to maintain appropriate levels of insurance, not all claims are insurable and we may experience major incidents of a nature that are not covered by insurance. We do not have any insurance that cover, among other things, employee-related accidents and injuries, product or business liability and other property damage and liability deriving from our activities. Furthermore, insurance companies in China currently do not offer as extensive an array of insurance products as insurance companies in more developed economies. We have determined that the costs of insuring for these risks and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. We maintain an amount of insurance protection that we believe is adequate, but there can be no assurance that such insurance will continue to be available on acceptable terms or that our insurance coverage will be sufficient or effective under all circumstances and against all liabilities to which we may be subject. If we were to incur substantial losses or liabilities due to fire, explosions, floods, other natural disasters or accidents or business interruption, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. We could, for example, be subject to substantial claims for damages upon the occurrence of several events within one calendar year. In addition, our insurance costs may increase over time in response to any negative development in our claims history or due to material price increases in the insurance market in general.

Our introduction of new technologies and products may increase the likelihood that third parties will assert claims that our products infringe upon their proprietary rights.

The rapid technological changes that characterize our industry require that we quickly implement new processes and components with respect to our products. Often with respect to recently developed processes and components, a degree of uncertainty exists as to who may rightfully claim ownership rights in such processes and components. Uncertainty of this type increases the risk that claims alleging that such components or processes infringe upon third party rights may be brought against us. Although we take and will continue to take steps to ensure that our new products do not infringe upon third party rights, if our products or manufacturing processes are found to infringe upon third party rights, we may be subject to significant liabilities and be required to change our manufacturing processes or be prohibited from manufacturing certain products, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.

We may be required to defend against charges of infringement of patent or other proprietary rights of third parties. Although patent and other intellectual property disputes in our industry have often been settled through licensing or similar arrangements, such defense could require us to incur substantial expense and to divert significant resources of our technical and management personnel, and could result in our loss of rights to develop or make certain products or require us to pay monetary damages or royalties to license proprietary rights from third parties. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that the necessary licenses would be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. Accordingly, an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding or failure to obtain necessary licenses could prevent us from manufacturing and selling certain of our products. Any such litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs to us and diversions of our resources, either of which could adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

Adverse regulatory developments in China may subject us to additional regulatory review and expose us to government restrictions, and additional disclosure requirements and regulatory scrutiny to be adopted by the SEC in response to risks related to recent regulatory developments in China may impose additional compliance requirements for companies with significant China-based operations, all of which could increase our compliance costs, subject us to additional disclosure requirements, and/or suspend or terminate our future securities offerings, making capital-raising more difficult.

As substantially all of our operations are based in China, we are subject to a wide range of relevant PRC laws. The recent regulatory developments in China, in particular with respect to restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore and the government-led cybersecurity reviews of certain companies, may lead to additional regulatory review in China over our financing and capital raising activities in the United States. In addition, we may become subject to industry-wide regulations that may be adopted by the relevant PRC authorities, which may have the effect of limiting our product and service offerings, restricting the scope of our operations in China, or causing the suspension or termination of our business operations in China entirely, all of which will materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may have to adjust, modify, or completely change our business operations in response to adverse regulatory changes or policy developments, and we cannot assure you that any remedial action adopted by us can be completed in a timely, cost-efficient, or liability-free manner or at all.

On July 6, 2021, the relevant PRC government authorities published the Opinions on Strictly Cracking Down Illegal Securities Activities in Accordance with the Law. These opinions call for strengthened regulation over illegal securities activities and supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies and propose to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems to deal with the risks and incidents faced by China-based overseas-listed companies. Pursuant to the Opinions, Chinese regulators are required to accelerate rulemaking related to the overseas issuance and listing of securities, and update the existing laws and regulations related to data security, cross-border data flow, and management of confidential information. Numerous regulations, guidelines and other measures are expected to be adopted under the umbrella of or in addition to the Cybersecurity Law, Data Security Law and Personal Information Protection Law. As of the date of this Report, no official guidance or related implementation rules have been issued yet and the interpretation of these opinions remains unclear at this stage. On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures, which took effect on March 31, 2023. The Trial Administrative Measures further stipulate the rules and requirements for overseas offering and listing conducted by PRC domestic companies.

On July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China issued the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (Revision Draft for Comments), or the Measures, for public comments, which propose to authorize the relevant government authorities to conduct cybersecurity review on a range of activities that affect or may affect national security, including listings in foreign countries by companies that possess the personal data of more than one million users. On December 28, 2021, the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version) were promulgated and became effective on February 15, 2022 (the “Measures”), which iterates that any “online platform operators” controlling personal information of more than one million users that seeks to list on a foreign stock exchange shall also be subject to cybersecurity review. As we are neither an “operator of critical information infrastructure” nor a “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, we believe that the Measures are not applicable to us even after they take effect in current form. The PRC government is increasingly focused on data security, recently launching cybersecurity review against a number of mobile apps operated by several US-listed Chinese companies and prohibiting these apps from registering new users during the review period. There are great uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws, rules and regulations regarding data and privacy security. We may be required to change our data and other business practices and be subject to regulatory investigations, penalties, and increased cost of operations as a result of these laws and policies.

On July 30, 2021, in response to the recent regulatory developments in China and actions adopted by the PRC government, the Chairman of the SEC issued a statement asking the SEC staff to seek additional disclosures from offshore issuers associated with China-based operating companies before their registration statements will be declared effective, including whether the China-based operating company and the issuer, when applicable, received or were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges and the risks that such approval could be denied or rescinded. On August 1, 2021, the China Securities Regulatory Commission stated in a statement that it had taken note of the new disclosure requirements announced by the SEC regarding the listings of Chinese companies and the recent regulatory development in China, and that both countries should strengthen communications on regulating China-related issuers. We are subject to a variety of PRC laws and may be subject to tightened regulatory review and exposed to government restrictions in China. In light of the recent regulatory and policy developments in China and government actions taken by the PRC government, including possible imposition of restrictions and/or approval requirements on China-based companies raising capital offshore, the offering of our securities may be subject to additional disclosure requirements and review that the SEC or other regulatory authorities in the United States may adopt for companies with China-based operations, all of which could increase our compliance costs, subject us to additional disclosure requirements, and/or suspend or terminate our future securities offerings, making capital-raising more difficult.

We are subject to the Trial Administrative Measures, as the Company has: (i) 50% or more of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent accounting year is accounted for by PRC domestic companies; and (ii) the main parts of the issuer’s business activities are conducted in mainland China, or its main places of business are located in mainland China, or the senior managers in charge of its business operation and management are mostly Chinese citizens or domiciled in mainland China; and, if required, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete such process on time or at all.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Trial Administrative Measures”), which took effect on March 31, 2023. Compared to the Draft Rules, the Trial Administrative Measures further clarified and emphasized several aspects, including: (i) comprehensive determination of the “indirect overseas offering and listing by Mainland China domestic companies” in compliance with the principle of “substance over form” and particularly, an issuer will be required to go through the filing procedures under the Trial Administrative Measures if the following criteria are met at the same time: a) 50% or more of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent accounting year is accounted for by Mainland China domestic companies, and b) the main parts of the issuer’s business activities are conducted in Mainland China, or its main places of business are located in Mainland China, or the senior managers in charge of its business operation and management are mostly Chinese citizens or domiciled in Mainland China; (ii) exemptions from immediate filing requirements for issuers that a) have already been listed or registered but not yet listed in foreign securities markets, including U.S. markets, prior to the effective date of the Trial Administrative Measures, and b) are not required to re-perform the regulatory procedures with the relevant overseas regulatory authority or the overseas stock exchange, c) whose such overseas securities offering or listing shall be completed before September 30, 2023. However, such issuers shall carry out filing procedures as required if they conduct refinancing or are involved in other circumstances that require filing with the CSRC; (iii) a negative list of types of issuers banned from listing overseas, such as issuers under investigation for bribery and corruption; (iv) regulation of issuers in specific industries; (v) issuers’ compliance with national security measures and the personal data protection laws; and (vi) certain other matters such as: an issuer must file with the CSRC within three business days after it submits an application for initial public offering to competent overseas regulators; and subsequent reports shall be filed with the CSRC on material events, including change of control or voluntary or forced delisting of the issuer(s) who have completed overseas offerings and listings.Our PRC counsel has advised that because our common stock currently trades in the U.S., we were not required to submit filings to the CSRC before the Offering was completed and the Offering was not conditioned on CSRC approval. Rather, within three days of the closing of the Offering, we are required to submit filings to the CSRC in accordance with the Trial Administrative Measures. According to the relevant provisions of the Trial Administrative Measures and its supporting guidelines, the Company is required to fulfill the filing procedures with the CSRC within three days of the closing of the 2024 Uplisting Offering. According to the Trial Administrative Measures, the Company has submitted the filing materials to the CSRC, but the materials were not complete due to lack of a commitment letter from the lead underwriter for the Offering, and the Company withdrew the filing from the CSRC. The Company will submit the filing materials again when the materials are ready. However, given that the Trial Administrative Measures were recently promulgated, there remain substantial uncertainties as to their interpretation, application, and enforcement and there is no guarantee that the relevant PRC government agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion that we and our PRC counsel have reached. If the CSRC has determined that we have failed to comply with the post-offering filing obligations imposed by the Trial Administrative Measures or make a misrepresentation, misleading statement or material omission in the materials we submit to the CSRC, the CSRC would have the right to order rectification, issue a warning and impose a fine on us of between RMB 1 million and RMB 10 million and issuing a warning to the parties responsible for such failure, misrepresentation or material omission and impose a fine on each of such individuals ranging from RMB 500,000 to RMB 5 million.

Our common stock will be prohibited from trading in the United States under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, as amended, if it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect and investigate completely our auditor. The delisting of and prohibition from trading of our common stock, or the threat of their being delisted and prohibited from trading, may cause the value of our common stock to significantly decline or be worthless.

Pursuant to the HFCAA, if the SEC determines that we have filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that has not been subject to inspections by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, the SEC will prohibit our shares from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States.

On December 18, 2020, the HFCAA was signed into law. The HFCAA has since then been subject to amendments by the U.S. Congress and interpretations and rulemaking by the SEC. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “AHFCAA”), which proposes to reduce the period of time for foreign companies to comply with PCAOB audits from three to two consecutive years, thus reducing the time period before the securities of such foreign companies may be prohibited from trading or delisted.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report to notify the SEC of its determination relating to the PCAOB’s inability to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China made it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of these accounting firms’ audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections, which could cause existing and potential investors in issuers operating in China to lose confidence in such issuers’ procedures and reported financial information and the quality of financial statements.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB released a statement confirming it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong, and it issued the 2022 HFCAA Determination Report to vacate its precious determinations to the contrary. The PCAOB is continuing to demand complete access, and it will act immediately to reconsider such determinations should China obstruct, or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access, at any time.

Our auditor, ST & Partners PLT (“STP”), is headquartered in Malayia, subject to PCAOB inspection. Our auditor was not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021, which were vacated on December 15, 2022. Our auditor, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States.

On December 29, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, was signed into law, which amended the HFCAA (i) to reduce the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCAA from three years to two, and (ii) so that any foreign jurisdiction could be the reason why the PCAOB does not have complete access to inspect or investigate a company’s auditor. As it was originally enacted, the HFCAA applied only if the PCAOB’s inability to inspect or investigate was due to a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction where the relevant public accounting firm is located. As a result of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, the HFCAA now also applies if the PCAOB’s inability to inspect or investigate the relevant accounting firm is due to a position taken by an authority in any foreign jurisdiction. The denying jurisdiction does not need to be where the accounting firm is located. If the PCAOB determines in the future that it is unable to completely inspect or investigate our auditor and we continue to use such auditor to issue an audit report on our financial statements filed with the SEC, our securities will be delisted from the stock exchange. The delisting of our common stock or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment. These risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of our common stock, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, or cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

Further developments related to the HFCAA could add uncertainties to our future offerings. We cannot assure you what further actions the SEC, the PCAOB or the stock exchanges will take to address these issues and what impact such actions will have on companies that have significant operations in the PRC and have securities listed on a U.S. stock exchange (including a national securities exchange or over-the-counter stock market). In addition, any additional actions, proceedings, or new rules resulting from these efforts to increase U.S. regulatory access to audit information could create uncertainty for investors, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected, and we could be delisted if we and our auditor are unable to meet the PCAOB inspection requirement. Such a delisting would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so, and would have a negative impact on the price of our shares.

We may be subject to substantial fine if the CSRC has determined that we have failed to comply with the post-offering filing obligations imposed by the Trial Administrative Measure.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures that require issuers to carry out filing procedures as required if they conduct refinancing or are involved in other circumstances that require filing with the CSRC; (iii) a negative list of types of issuers banned from listing overseas, such as issuers under investigation for bribery and corruption; (iv) regulation of issuers in specific industries; (v) issuers’ compliance with national security measures and the personal data protection laws; and (vi) certain other matters such as: an issuer must file with the CSRC within three business days after it submits an application for initial public offering to competent overseas regulators; and subsequent reports shall be filed with the CSRC on material events, including change of control or voluntary or forced delisting of the issuer(s) who have completed overseas offerings and listings.

Our PRC counsel has advised that because our common stock currently trades in the U.S., we were not required to submit filings to the CSRC before our 2024 Uplisting Offering was completed and the 2024 Uplisting Offering was not conditioned on CSRC approval. However, within three days of the closing of the 2024 Uplisting Offering, we are required to submit filings to the CSRC in accordance with the Trial Administrative Measures. We have submitted the filing materials to the CSRC, but the materials were not complete due to lack of a commitment letter from the lead underwriter for the 2024 Uplisting Offering, and we withdrew the filing from the CSRC. We will submit the filing materials again when the materials are ready. However, given that the Trial Administrative Measures were recently promulgated, there remain substantial uncertainties as to their interpretation, application, and enforcement and there is no guarantee that the relevant PRC government agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion that we and our PRC counsel have reached. If the CSRC has determined that we have failed to comply with the post-offering filing obligations imposed by the Trial Administrative Measures or make a misrepresentation, misleading statement or material omission in the materials we submit to the CSRC, the CSRC would have the right to order rectification, issue a warning and impose a fine on us of between RMB 1 million and RMB 10 million and issuing a warning to the parties responsible for such failure, misrepresentation or material omission and impose a fine on each of such individuals ranging from RMB 500,000 to RMB 5 million. Our operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

Changes in U.S. and international trade policies, particularly with regard to China, may adversely impact our business and operating results.

There have recently been significant changes to international trade policies and tariffs affecting imports and exports. Any significant increases in tariffs on goods or materials or other changes in trade policy could negatively affect our search for a target and/or our ability to complete our initial business combination.

Recently, the U.S. has implemented a range of new tariffs and increases to existing tariffs. In response to the tariffs announced by the U.S., other countries have imposed, are considering imposing, and may in the future impose new or increased tariffs on certain exports from the United States. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to trade policies, taxes, government regulations and tariffs. and we cannot predict whether, and to what extent, current tariffs will continue or trade policies will change in the future.

Tariffs, or the threat of tariffs or increased tariffs, could have a significant negative impact on certain businesses (either due to domestic businesses’ reliance on imported goods or dependence on access to foreign markets, or foreign businesses’ reliance on sales into the United States). In addition, retaliatory tariffs could have a significant negative impact on foreign businesses that rely on imports from the United States, and domestic businesses that rely on exporting goods internationally. Among other things, historical financial performance of companies affected by trade policies and/or tariffs may not provide useful guidance as to the future performance of such companies, because future financial performance of those companies may be materially affected by new U.S. tariffs or foreign retaliatory tariffs, or other changes to trade policies.

Trade tensions between China and the United States may intensify in the future, resulting in the imposition of more tariffs or other trade restrictions. Although cross-border business is currently not an area of our focus, if we plan to sell products internationally in the future, any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as capital controls or tariffs, may affect the demand for our products and services, impact the competitive position of our products or prevent us from being able to sell products in certain countries. If any new tariffs, legislation and/or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated, such changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. In addition, future actions or escalations by either the United States or China that affect trade relations may cause global economic turmoil and potentially have a negative impact on our business.

In addition, recent economic and trade sanctions threatened and/or imposed by the U.S. government on a number of China-based companies have raised concerns as to whether, in the future, there may be additional regulatory challenges or enhanced restrictions involving other China-based companies in areas such as data security, information technology or other business activities. Similar or more expansive restrictions, including relating to export controls, that may be imposed by the United States or other jurisdictions in the future, may materially and adversely affect our ability to acquire technologies, systems or products that may be important to our technology infrastructure, product and service offerings and business operations.

Furthermore, we may also face export controls or sanctions-related or other trade-related restrictions on transactions with certain customers, business partners and other persons. The Entity List maintained by the U.S. Department of Commerce identifies foreign parties that are prohibited from acquiring - whether by export, reexport, or transfer in-country - some or all items subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”), unless the exporter secures a license. Licenses, and exceptions to the license requirement, are rarely granted to exporters. Exporting, reexporting or transferring items subject to the EAR in violation of licensing requirements could result in criminal and/or civil penalties. These restrictions, and similar or more expansive restrictions or sanctions that may be imposed by the United States or other jurisdictions in the future, may adversely affect our ability to work with certain future customers and business partners, which would harm our business. Furthermore, our association with customers or business partners that are or become subject to U.S. regulatory scrutiny or export controls- or sanctions-related restrictions could subject us to actual or perceived reputational harm among current or prospective investors, suppliers or customers, other parties doing business with us, or the general public. Any such reputational harm could result in the loss of investors, suppliers or customers, which could harm our business, financial conditions or prospects.

PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds of any offerings or financings to make loans or additional capital contributions to our Chinese subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

We conduct substantially all of our operations in China. We may make loans to our PRC subsidiary, subject to the approval, registration, and filing with governmental authorities and limitation of amount, or we may make additional capital contributions to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiary in China. Any loans to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiary in China, which is treated as a foreign-invested enterprise under PRC law, are subject to foreign exchange loan registrations. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise shall use its capital pursuant to the principle of authenticity and self-use within its business scope. The capital of a foreign invested enterprise shall not be used for the following purposes: (i) directly or indirectly used for payment beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations; (ii) directly or indirectly used for investment in securities or investments other than banks’ principal-secured products unless otherwise provided by relevant laws and regulations; (iii) the granting of loans to non-affiliated enterprises, except where it is expressly permitted in the business license; and (iv) paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use (except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises).

In light of the various requirements imposed by PRC regulations on loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals or filings on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future loans by us to our PRC subsidiary or with respect to future capital contributions by us to our PRC subsidiary. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds from any future offerings and to capitalize or otherwise fund our Chinese operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident beneficial owners or our PRC subsidiary to liability or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiary, limit our PRC subsidiary’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to us, or may otherwise adversely affect us.

In July 2014, SAFE promulgated the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment Through Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 37, to replace the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Residents’ Financing and Roundtrip Investment Through Offshore Special Purpose Vehicles, or SAFE Circular 75, which ceased to be effective upon the promulgation of SAFE Circular 37. SAFE Circular 37 requires PRC residents (including PRC individuals and PRC corporate entities) to register with SAFE or its local branches in connection with their direct or indirect offshore investment activities. SAFE Circular 37 is applicable to our shareholders who are PRC residents and may be applicable to any offshore acquisitions that we make in the future.

Under SAFE Circular 37, PRC residents who make, or have prior to the implementation of SAFE Circular 37 made, direct or indirect investments in offshore special purpose vehicles, or SPVs, will be required to register such investments with SAFE or its local branches. In addition, any PRC resident who is a direct or indirect shareholder of an SPV is required to update its filed registration with the local branch of SAFE with respect to that SPV, to reflect any material change. Moreover, any subsidiary of such SPV in China is required to urge the PRC resident shareholders to update their registration with the local branch of SAFE. If any PRC shareholder of such SPV fails to make the required registration or to update the previously filed registration, the subsidiary of such SPV in China may be prohibited from distributing its profits or the proceeds from any capital reduction, share transfer or liquidation to the SPV, and the SPV may also be prohibited from making additional capital contributions into its subsidiary in China. On February 13, 2015, the SAFE promulgated a Notice on Further Simplifying and Improving Foreign Exchange Administration Policy on Direct Investment, or SAFE Notice 13, which became effective on June 1, 2015. Under SAFE Notice 13, applications for foreign exchange registration of inbound foreign direct investments and outbound overseas direct investments, including those required under SAFE Circular 37, will be filed with qualified banks instead of SAFE. The qualified banks will directly examine the applications and accept registrations under the supervision of SAFE.

We may not be fully informed of the identities of all our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. For example, because the investment in or trading of our shares will happen in an overseas public or secondary market where shares are often held with brokers in brokerage accounts, it is unlikely that we will know the identity of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. Furthermore, we have no control over any of our future beneficial owners and we cannot assure you that such PRC residents will be able to complete the necessary approval and registration procedures required by the Administrative Measures on Individual Foreign Exchange.

Some of our shareholders that we are aware of are subject to SAFE regulations, and we expect all of these shareholders will have completed all necessary registrations with the local SAFE branch or qualified banks as required by SAFE Circular 37. We cannot assure you, however, that all of these shareholders may continue to make required filings or updates in a timely manner, or at all. We can provide no assurance that we are or will in the future continue to be informed of identities of all PRC residents holding direct or indirect interest in our company. Any failure or inability by such shareholders to comply with SAFE regulations may subject us to fines or legal sanctions, such as restrictions on our cross-border investment activities or our PRC subsidiary’ ability to distribute dividends to, or obtain foreign exchange-denominated loans from, our company or prevent us from making distributions or paying dividends. As a result, our business operations and our ability to make distributions to you could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, as these foreign exchange regulations are still relatively new and their interpretation and implementation have been constantly evolving, it is unclear how these regulations, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant government authorities. For example, we may be subject to a more stringent review and approval process with respect to our foreign exchange activities, such as remittance of dividends and foreign-currency-denominated borrowings, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if we decide to acquire a PRC domestic company, we cannot assure you that we or the owners of such company, as the case may be, will be able to obtain the necessary approvals or complete the necessary filings and registrations required by the foreign exchange regulations. This may restrict our ability to implement our acquisition strategy and could adversely affect our business and prospects.

As of the date of this Annual Report, the PRC residents have either not completed, or have not applied for, foreign exchange registration under the SAFE Circular 37 and other related rules. Although they are either in the process of making foreign exchange registration or plan to make foreign exchange registrations, they may still face with the above said possible fines in accordance with the PRC Laws.

Labor laws in the PRC may adversely affect our results of operations.

The PRC National People’s Congress promulgated the Labor Contract Law which became effective on January 1, 2008 and was amended on December 28, 2012 (the “Labor Contract Law”), and the State Council promulgated implementing regulations for the labor contract law on September 18, 2008. The Labor Contract Law and the implementing regulations impose requirements concerning, among others, the execution of written contracts between employers and employees, the time limits for probationary periods, and the length of employment contracts. The interpretation and implementation of these regulations are still evolving, our employment practices may violate the Labor Contract Law and related regulations and we could be subject to penalties, fines or legal fees as a result. If we are subject to severe penalties or incur significant legal fees in connection with labor law disputes or investigations, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Further, the Labor Contract Law requires certain terminations be based upon seniority and not merit. In the event that we decide to significantly change or decrease our workforce, the Labor Contract Law could adversely affect our ability to enact such changes in a manner that is most advantageous to our business or in a timely and cost-effective manner, thus materially and adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations.

We may be exposed to liabilities under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and Chinese anti-corruption law.

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. persons and issuers as defined by the statute for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We are also subject to Chinese anti-corruption laws, which strictly prohibit the payment of bribes to government officials. We have operations, agreements with third parties, and make sales in China, which may experience corruption. Our activities in China may create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one or more of the employees of our company, because such employees might act against our policies, outside of our control. Violations of the FCPA or Chinese anti-corruption laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the government may seek to hold our Company liable for successor liability FCPA violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.

Our business may be materially and adversely affected if our PRC subsidiary declares bankruptcy or becomes subject to a dissolution or liquidation proceeding.

The Enterprise Bankruptcy Law of the PRC, or the Bankruptcy Law, came into effect on June 1, 2007. The Bankruptcy Law provides that an enterprise will be liquidated if the enterprise fails to settle its debts as and when they fall due and if the enterprise’s assets are, or are demonstrably, insufficient to clear such debts.

Our PRC subsidiary holds certain assets that are important to our business operations. If our PRC subsidiary undergoes a voluntary or involuntary liquidation proceeding, unrelated third-party creditors may claim rights to some or all of these assets, thereby hindering our ability to operate our business, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

According to the SAFE’s Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Further Improving and Adjusting Foreign Exchange Administration Policies for Direct Investment, effective on December 17, 2012, and the Provisions for Administration of Foreign Exchange Relating to Inbound Direct Investment by Foreign Investors, effective May 13, 2013, if our PRC subsidiary undergoes a voluntary or involuntary liquidation proceeding, prior approval from the SAFE for remittance of foreign exchange to our shareholders abroad is no longer required, but we still need to conduct a registration process with the SAFE local branch. It is not clear whether “registration” is a mere formality or involves the kind of substantive review process undertaken by SAFE and its relevant branches in the past.

Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. The PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless.

Substantially all of our assets and operations are located in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic and social conditions in China generally. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the level of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets, and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies.

The PRC government has significant authority to exert influence on the ability of a China-based company, such as us, to conduct its business, accept foreign investments or list on an U.S. or other foreign exchanges. For example, we face risks associated with regulatory approvals of offshore offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory actions, as well as oversight on cybersecurity and data privacy. Such risks or any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our common stock and/or other securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. The PRC government has significant authority, oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene with or influence our operations as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. The PRC government has recently published new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding our industry that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, the PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless.

The Chinese government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy, and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the Chinese government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could adversely affect our business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for our services and adversely affect our competitive position. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations. In addition, in the past the Chinese government has implemented certain measures, including interest rate adjustment, to control the pace of economic growth. These measures may cause decreased economic activity in China, which may adversely affect our business and operating results.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system, including uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and sudden and unexpected changes in laws and regulations in China, could adversely affect us and limit the legal protections available to you and us.

Our operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. Our wholly foreign-owned PRC operating subsidiary Sichuan Vtouch is subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions under the civil law system may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. In addition, any new or changes in PRC laws and regulations related to foreign investment in China could affect the business environment and our ability to operate our business in China.

Since the PRC legal system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. Uncertainties due to evolving laws and regulations could also impede the ability of a China-based company, such as our company, to obtain or maintain permits or licenses required to conduct business in China. In the absence of required permits or licenses, governmental authorities could impose material sanctions or penalties on us. In addition, some regulatory requirements issued by certain PRC government authorities may not be consistently applied by other PRC government authorities (including local government authorities), thus making strict compliance with all regulatory requirements impractical, or in some circumstances impossible. From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. Any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory provisions and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. These uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into and could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

The PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of any of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such unpredictability towards our contractual, property and procedural rights could adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

Furthermore, if China adopts more stringent standards with respect to environmental protection or corporate social responsibilities, we may incur increased compliance costs or become subject to additional restrictions in our operations. Intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may also not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. In addition, we cannot predict the effects of future developments in the PRC legal system on our business operations, including the promulgation of new laws, or changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us and our investors, including you. Moreover, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and management attention.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against us or our management based on foreign laws.

We are a company incorporated under the laws of the United States and we conduct substantially all of our operations in China. In addition, our officers and directors reside within China and are PRC nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside mainland China. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors as none of them currently resides in the United States or has substantial assets located in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, the PRC courts will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC laws or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

Government control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi, or “RMB,” into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive some revenue and incur some expenses in U.S. dollars but incur other expenses primarily in RMB. Although our main business is based in mainland China with our Chinese operating subsidiary, some of our business may require us to use U.S. dollars. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Approval from appropriate government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may, at its discretion, impose restrictions on access to foreign currencies for current account transactions and if this occurs in the future, we may not be able to pay in foreign currencies, and our business and operations may be adversely affected.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of your investment.

The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions in China and by China’s foreign exchange policies. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade-old policy of pegging the value of the Renminbi to the U.S. dollar, and the Renminbi appreciated more than 20% against the U.S. dollar over the following three years. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted and the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. Since June 2010, the Renminbi has fluctuated against the U.S. dollar, at times significantly and unpredictably. On November 30, 2015, the Executive Board of IMF completed the regular five-year review of the basket of currencies that make up the Special Drawing Right, or the SDR, and decided that with effect from October 1, 2016, Renminbi is determined to be a freely usable currency and will be included in the SDR basket as a fifth currency, along with the U.S. dollar, the Euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Renminbi has depreciated significantly in the backdrop of a surging U.S. dollar and persistent capital outflows of China. This depreciation halted in 2017, and the RMB appreciated approximately 7% against the U.S. dollar during this one-year period. With the development of the foreign exchange market and progress towards interest rate liberalization and Renminbi internationalization, the PRC government may in the future announce further changes to the exchange rate system, and we cannot assure you that the Renminbi will not appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the future. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future.

Significant revaluation of the Renminbi may have a material and adverse effect on our operations. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount we would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our shares of Common Stock or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us.

Very limited hedging options are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to adequately hedge our exposure or at all. In addition, our currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currency.

Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively and affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in Renminbi. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval of SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. Specifically, under the existing exchange restrictions, without prior approval of SAFE, cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiary in China may be used to pay dividends to our company. However, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, we need to obtain SAFE approval to use cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiary to pay off their respective debt in a currency other than Renminbi owed to entities outside China, or to make other capital expenditure payments outside China in a currency other than Renminbi.

In light of the flood of capital outflows of China, the PRC government may from time to time impose more restrictive foreign exchange policies and step up scrutiny of major outbound capital movement. More restrictions and substantial vetting process may be required by SAFE or other government authorities to regulate cross-border transactions falling under the capital account. The PRC government may at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currencies to satisfy our foreign currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders, including holders of our Common Stock.

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities and may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock.

The Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. The central or respective local governments may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock.

If we are classified as a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, such classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders and the common stockholders.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with its “de facto management body” within the PRC is considered a “resident enterprise” and will be subject to the enterprise income tax on its global income at the rate of 25%. The implementation rules define the term “de facto management body” as the body that exercises full and substantial control and overall management over the business, productions, personnel, accounts and properties of an enterprise. In 2009, the State Administration of Taxation, or SAT, issued a circular, known as SAT Circular 82, which provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de facto management body” of a PRC-controlled enterprise that is incorporated offshore is located in China. Although this circular applies only to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the criteria set forth in the circular may reflect the SAT’s general position on how the “de facto management body” text should be applied in determining the tax resident status of all offshore enterprises. According to SAT Circular 82, an offshore incorporated enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or a PRC enterprise group will be regarded as a PRC tax resident by virtue of having its “de facto management body” in China, and will be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on its global income only if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the primary location of the day-to-day operational management is in the PRC; (ii) decisions relating to the enterprise’s financial and human resource matters are made or are subject to approval by organizations or personnel in the PRC; (iii) the enterprise’s primary assets, accounting books and records, company seals, and board and shareholder resolutions are located or maintained in the PRC; and (iv) at least 50% of voting board members or senior executives habitually reside in the PRC.

We believe our Company, excluding our PRC subsidiary, is not a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes. However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.” If the PRC tax authorities determine that our company is a PRC resident enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes, we would be subject to PRC enterprise income on our worldwide income at the rate of 25%. Furthermore, we would be required to withhold a 10% tax from dividends we pay to our shareholders that are non-resident enterprises. In addition, non-resident enterprise shareholders (including the common stockholders) may be subject to PRC tax on gains realized on the sale or other disposition of the common stock, if such income is treated as sourced from within the PRC. Furthermore, if we are deemed a PRC resident enterprise, dividends paid to our non-PRC individual shareholders (including the common stockholders) and any gain realized on the transfer of the common stock or ordinary shares by such shareholders may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 20% (which, in the case of dividends, may be withheld at source by us). These rates may be reduced by an applicable tax treaty, but it is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of our company would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that we are treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the purchase price.

An active trading market for our common stock may not be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of common stock and may impair our ability to acquire other businesses or technologies using our shares of common stock as consideration, which, in turn, could materially adversely affect our business. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

  • overall performance of the equity markets;
  • our operating performance and the performance of other similar companies;
  • the published opinions and third-party valuations by banking and market analysts;
  • changes in our projected operating results that we provide to the public, our failure to meet these projections or changes in recommendations by securities analysts that elect to follow our common stock;
  • regulatory or legal developments;
  • the level of expenses related to operations;
  • our failure to achieve its goals in the timeframe it announces;
  • announcements of acquisitions, strategic alliances or significant agreements by us;
  • recruitment or departure of key personnel;
  • the economy as a whole and market conditions in our industry;
  • trading activity by a number of stockholders;
  • the size of our market float;
  • political uncertainty and/or instability; and
  • any other factors discussed in this Annual Report.

In the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of our management’s attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Since our By-laws provide that the courts in the State of Nevada are the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our shareholders, this could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors or officers, or employees.

Our Amended and Restated By-laws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the appropriate state and federal courts in the State of Nevada shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s shareholders, any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This exclusive forum provision would not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. To the extent that any such claims may be based upon federal law claims, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in our Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions.

These exclusive-forum provisions may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum of its choosing for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees.

Moreover, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our Amended and Restated By-laws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees.

Short sellers of our stock may be manipulative and may drive down the market price of our common stock.

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed or intends to borrow from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities at a later date to return to the lender. A short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is therefore in the short seller’s interest for the price of the stock to decline, some short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, opinions or characterizations regarding the relevant issuer, its business prospects and similar matters calculated to or which may create negative market momentum, which may permit them to obtain profits for themselves as a result of selling the stock short. Issuers whose securities have historically had limited trading volumes and/or have been susceptible to relatively high volatility levels can be particularly vulnerable to such short seller attacks.

The publication of any such commentary regarding us by a short seller may bring about a temporary, or possibly long term, decline in the market price of our common stock. No assurances can be made that we will not become a target of such commentary and declines in the market price of our common stock will not occur in the future, in connection with such commentary by short sellers or otherwise.

If we become directly subject to the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business, operations and reputations, which could result in a loss of your investment in our common stock.

U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in some cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on our business. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend the Company. This situation may be a major distraction to our management. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our company and business operations will be severely hampered and your investment in our shares could be rendered worthless.

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely affect their market price.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. Shares held by our existing shareholders may be sold in the public market in the future subject to the restrictions in Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by our significant shareholders or any other shareholder or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of our common stock.

Because we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, you must rely on a price appreciation of our common stock for return on your investment.

We currently intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in our common stock as a source for any future dividend income.

Our board of directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends., Even if our board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on our future results of operations and cash flow, our capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries, our financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Accordingly, the return on your investment in our common stock will likely depend entirely upon any future price appreciation of our common stock. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value, or even maintain the price at which you purchased the common stock. You may not realize a return on your investment in our common stock and you may even lose your entire investment in our common stock.

If relations between the United States and China worsen, our stock price may decrease and could lead to our loss of access or increased difficulty in accessing U.S. capital markets.

At various times during recent years, the United States and China have had disagreements over political and economic issues. Controversies may arise in the future between these two countries. Any political or trade conflicts between the United States and China could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could potentially impede our access to, or increase the difficulty of accessing, U.S. capital markets.

We may be subject to delisting from Nasdaq if we fail to timely file periodic reports with the SEC or to maintain Nasdaq’s minimum bid price, which could materially and adversely affect the liquidity and value of our common stock.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires timely filing of periodic reports with the SEC. Between April and August in 2025, we received Nasdaq notices for late filings of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and our Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2025. At Nasdaq’s request, we submitted a compliance plan on June 18, 2025; Nasdaq accepted the plan on June 26, 2025 and granted us an extended compliance period through October 13, 2025 to file all outstanding reports. Following Nasdaq’s delinquency notice relating to the June 30, 2025 Form 10-Q, we submitted an updated compliance plan on August 28, 2025, reaffirming the steps in our original plan. We are working diligently with our auditors, legal counsel, and finance team to complete the required filings as promptly as practicable and remain committed to regaining and maintaining compliance. If we do not complete the required filings within the compliance period, however, our common stock may be delisted, subject to our right to appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

Separately, on July 15, 2025, we received a Nasdaq notice that our bid price had closed below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, triggering noncompliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. Nasdaq has provided us a 180-calendar-day period to regain compliance, which generally requires a closing bid price of at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during that period. We are monitoring the bid price closely and diligently considering available options, including potential corporate actions, to regain compliance within the allotted period. If we do not regain compliance (and are not granted additional time), our securities may be subject to delisting, also subject to appeal rights.

Although these notices had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of our common stock, there can be no assurance that we will regain or maintain compliance within the permitted time frames. Any delisting would likely reduce the liquidity of our common stock, impair our ability to raise capital, and negatively impact investor confidence and our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Cybersecurity

As filed, 3,449 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Risk Management

We face significant and persistent cybersecurity risks due to the need to protect our business, our confidential information and information concerning our personnel and others with whom we conduct business. As with other technology companies, we occasionally face threats from actors who seek to disrupt our business as well as others who are engaging in malicious activities for profit, to make a political point or for no particular reason other than creating disruption. Disclosure of certain information as a result of a cybersecurity breach may result is a breach of privacy laws. The substantial level of harm that could occur to us and our suppliers and customers were we to suffer impacts of a material cybersecurity incident; and our use of third-party products, services and components requires us to maintain robust governance and oversight of these risks and to implement mechanisms, technologies and processes designed to help us assess, identify, and eliminate these risks.

While we have not, as of the date of this Annual Report, experienced a cybersecurity threat or incident that resulted in a material adverse impact to our business or operations, we cannot assure you that we will not experience such an incident in the future. Any cybersecurity incidents, whether or not successful, could result in our incurring additional costs related to, for example, rebuilding our internal systems, implementing additional threat protection measures, responding to regulatory inquiries or actions, paying damages or making payments to obtain access to our computer systems, or taking other remedial steps with respect to third parties, as well as incurring significant reputational harm. We have seen an increase in cyberattack volume, frequency, and sophistication. We seek to detect and investigate unauthorized attempts and attacks against our network, products, and services, and to prevent their occurrence and recurrence where practicable through changes or updates to our internal processes and tools and changes or updates to our products and services; however, we remain potentially vulnerable to known or unknown threats. In some instances, we, our suppliers, our customers, and the users of our products and services can be unaware of a threat or incident or its magnitude and effects. Further, there are increasing regulation requirements regarding responses to cybersecurity incidents, including reporting to regulators, which could subject us to additional liability and reputational harm.

Governance

Following these risk assessments, we evaluate whether and how to re-design, implement, and maintain reasonable safeguards to mitigate identified risks and reasonably address any identified gaps in existing safeguards. Our IT leadership reports to our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) periodically and on an as-needed basis to manage our risk assessment and mitigation process. We monitor and test our safeguards and regularly conduct training for our employees on these safeguards, in collaboration with human resources, IT, and management. We are committed to promoting a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management.

We have not encountered cybersecurity risks, threats or incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company, our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition during the financial year ended December 31, 2025.

Properties

As filed, 8,178 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

We operate our business in approximately nine separate leased buildings covering a total area of approximately 40,126.9 square feet at No. 29, Third Main Avenue, Shigao Town, Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan, China (previously known as 22 Xingan Ave., Section 2, Shigao Town, Sichuan, China ) where we maintain our executive offices, research and development facilities, factories and other facilities.

Our principal physical properties are used in connection with our [manufacturing/administrative/R&D/distribution] operations. We believe that our facilities are generally suitable and adequate for their current and anticipated future uses. The following table summarizes our material properties:

Location (City, Country) Segment(s) Using Property General Character of Property (e.g., Office, Manufacturing, Warehouse) Ownership/Lease Status Approx. Size (sq. ft./sq. m.) Lease Expiration (if leased) Encumbrances (if any)
Shigao Town, Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China Touchscreen business Offices building Leased 8,085.0. sq. m 31-Oct-26 None
same as above Touchscreen business Experimental building( testing and experimenting of samples and products Leased 1,069.6 sq. m 31-Oct-26 None

same as above Touchscreen business Security gate Leased 92.98 sq.m 31-Oct-26 None

As of the date of this Annual Report, we lease approximately 8,085.0 sq.m of office space for R&D, sales and other corporate functions in Shigao Town, Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China, which serves as our corporate headquarter. The lease expires on October 31, 2026 and we believe it can be renewed on commercially reasonable terms.

We also lease 30,879.3 sq.m facility with three manufacturing wards for principal manufacturing operations in Shigao Town, Renshou, County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China, at which production of, assembly, packaging, warehousing of our touchscreen products. We believe these facilities are adequate to meet our current production requirements and provide room for moderate expansion.

In addition, space of 1069.6 sq. m in Shigao Town, Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China was used for testing and experimenting of samples and products by our engineering teams.

None of our properties are subject to material encumbrances that would adversely affect their use.

As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not own any real property. However, we are in the process of obtaining a certificate of land use right for a new parcel located at Tianfu Avenue, Youjiadu Community in Chengdu, Sichuan province, China, and expect to receive the certificate from the local government in the first quarter of 2027.

We believe the above properties are adequate and suitable for our current needs and that, should it be needed, suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate any such expansion of our operations.

Leaseback Agreement

Pursuant to local PRC government guidelines on local environmental issues and the national overall plan, Sichuan Wetouch is under the government-directed relocation order to relocate no later than December 31, 2021 and received compensation accordingly.

On March 16, 2021, Sichuan Wetouch entered into an Agreement of Compensation on Demolition (the “Compensation Agreement”) with Meishan Huantian Industrial Co., Ltd, formerly named Sichuan Renshou Shigao Tianfu Investment Co., Ltd, a limited company owned by the local government (“Sichuan Renshou”), for the withdrawal of our right to use of a parcel of state-owned land and the demolition of all buildings, facilities and equipment on such land where we maintain our executive offices, research and development facilities and factories at No.29, Third Main Avenue, Shigao Town, Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan, China (the “Property”). The Property, all buildings, facilities, equipment and all other appurtenances on the Property are collectively referred to as “Properties”. The Compensation Agreement was executed and delivered as a result of the guidelines (the “Guidelines”) published by the local government with respect to local environmental issues and a national plan on Tianfu New District, Meishan City, Sichuan, PRC. In accordance with the Guidelines, a project named “Chaisang River Ecological Wetland Park” is under construction in the areas where our manufacturing facilities and properties are located. In consideration for such relocation, as an owner of the buildings on the state-owned land, we will be compensated. On March 18, 2021, Sichuan Wetouch received a total amount of RMB115.2 million (approximately $16.5 million) as the total amount of compensation from Sichuan Renshou, including RMB100.2 million ($14.3 million) based upon the appraised value of the Properties plus an extra 15% relocation bonus of RMB15.0 million ($2.1 million).

In order to minimize the interruption to our business, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a Leaseback Agreement with Sichuan Renshou on March 16, 2021. The Leaseback Agreement entitles us to lease back the Properties commencing from April 1, 2021 until December 31, 2021, at a monthly rent of RMB300,000 (approximately $42,899), which period was extended to October 31, 2022. On October 16, 2022, October 30, 2023, August 9, 2024, and September 29, 2025, Sichuan Vtouch entered an extension to the Leaseback Agreement with Sichuan Renshou four times to extend the period to lease back the Properties until October 31, 2026 at a monthly rent of RMB 400,000 ($57,199) in order to incorporate the new facility construction schedule

New Facilities

On August 6, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with the Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau for the purchase of a land use right for a parcel of land spanning 131,010 square feet, for a consideration of approximately RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) for the Company’s new facility. The Company paid the consideration in full on November 18, 2021. We are in the process of obtaining the certificate of land use right for the new parcel and expect to receive the certificate from the local government by the first half of 2027.

On July 27, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch and Sichuan Chunqiu Development and Construction Group Co., Ltd. entered into a construction contract for a project to build the capacitive touchscreen and touch machine research and development production base. The project was initially scheduled to commence on August 15, 2021, and reach completion by August 15, 2022, with a provisional contract value of RMB76,000,000 (approximately $10.9 million), subject to adjustment based on the final completion settlement. However, the construction project was subsequently suspended due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and government-ordered shutdowns in China. As a result, the parties have agreed to extend the term of the contract to December 31, 2024. On April 11, 2025, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a supplemental construction contract with Sichuan Chunqiu Development & Construction Group Co. Ltd. for an additional consideration of RMB 4,633,118 (equivalent to $0.7 million) regarding the completion of the Company’s facility construction project on the capacitive touchscreen and touch machine research and development, which extended the original contract term to December 31, 2025. As of the date of this Annual Report, we estimate that our capital needs for this acquisition and construction will be approximately RMB253 million (approximately $36.2 million), but there is no assurance that the estimated amount is sufficient to achieve our goals. We may need additional financing for our new facilities. In addition, we expect that this the construction of buildings and affixtures will be completed by end of first half of 2027 and our production at the new facilities will commence by the end of 2027, but there is no assurance and we may need extended time to achieve our business plan.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties about our business and operations. Our actual results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those we describe under Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We were originally incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada in August 1992. On October 9, 2020, we entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with BVI Wetouch and all the shareholders of BVI Wetouch, to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of BVI Wetouch in exchange for the issuance to such shareholders an aggregate of 28 million shares of our common stock. The Reverse Merger closed on October 9, 2020. As a result of the Reverse Merger, BVI Wetouch became our wholly-owned subsidiary.

Through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, BVI Wetouch, HK Wetouch, and Sichuan Vtouch, we are engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, sales and servicing of medium to large sized projected capacitive touchscreens. We are specialized in large-format touchscreens, which are developed and designed for a wide variety of markets and used in by the financial terminals, automotive, POS, gaming, lottery, medical, HMI, and other specialized industries. Our product portfolio comprises medium to large sized projected capacitive touchscreens ranging from 7.0 inch to 42 inch screens.

We generate revenues through sales of our various touchscreen products. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized approximately $45.1 million and $42.3 million, respectively, in total revenues.

We sell our touchscreen products both domestically in China and internationally, covering major areas in Mainland China, including but not limited to the eastern, southern, northern and southwest regions of Mainland China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Germany. We believe that we have established a strong and diversified client base. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, our domestic sales accounted for approximately 68.5% and 64.7%, respectively, of our revenues, and our international sales accounted for approximately 31.5% and 35.3%, respectively, of our revenues.

Construction of our new facility

We have been actively engaged in the construction of our new production facilities and office buildings in Chengdu Medicine City (Technology Park), Wenjiang District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, People’s Republic of China since the summer of 2023. The Company has planned to increase the scope of facility construction by adding a touch machine construction area. Due to the delayed supply of construction materials, the project has been progressed slowly than expected.

As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company estimated the construction to be completed by the first half of 2027 and commence production by the end of 2027. The total capital requirements for the new facility construction totaled approximately $14.4 million and $13.3 million have been recorded in the construction in progress as of December 31, 2025. The Company primarily fund the project with our existing cash on hand and cash flows generated from operations, and we may seek additional financing if needed to support the timely completion of the project.

PRC Domestic Market

For the year ended December 31, 2025, revenue from the PRC domestic market increased by $3.6 million or 13.1%, as a combined result of (i) an increase of 13.7% in sales volume, particularly in medical touchscreens, multi-functional printer touchscreens, industrial control computer touchscreens, automotive touchscreens, POS touchscreens and POS touchscreens, (ii) 0.1% positive impact from exchange rate due to appreciation of RMB against US dollars partially offset by (iii) a decrease of 0.6% in the average RMB selling price of our products in the domestic market, and (iii), compared with those of the same period in 2024.

As for the RMB selling price, the decrease of 0.6% was mainly due to the lower demand of higher selling priced products of touchscreen machines in the PRC domestic market, including the decreased average RMB selling price of 4.9% in medical touchscreens and 1.7% in automotive touchscreens, partially offset by the increased average RMB selling price of 7.0% in POS touchscreens during the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Note Warrant was valid for three years and expired during the year ended December 31, 2024.

We recorded gain of $378,371 on changes in fair value of common stock purchase warrants for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Income Taxes

(in millions, except percentage)

Years Ended December 31, 2025 2024 Change Amount%
Income before Income Taxes $10.2 $8.7 $1.5 17.2%
Income Tax Expense (3.0) (2.7) (0.3) 11.1%
Effective income tax rate 29.5% 30.6% (1.1)%

Under PRC CIT Law, domestic enterprises and foreign investment enterprises (the “FIEs”) are usually subject to a unified 25% enterprise income tax rate. The Company’s PRC subsidiary Sichuan Vtouch is subject to a 25% income tax rate.

The effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 stayed at 29.5% and 30.6%, respectively.

Our PRC subsidiary had $118.4 million of cash of December 31, 2025, which are planned to be indefinitely reinvested in our business operations in the PRC. The distributions from our PRC subsidiary to our stockholders are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 21%, less any applicable foreign tax credits. Due to our policy of indefinitely reinvesting our earnings in our PRC business, we have not provided for deferred income tax liabilities related to PRC withholding income tax on undistributed earnings of our PRC subsidiary.

Net Income

As a result of the above factors, we had a net income of $7.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2025compared to a net income of $6.0 million in the same period of 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our primary uses of cash have been to finance working capital needs. We expect that we will be able to meet our needs to fund operations, capital expenditures and other commitments in the next 12 months primarily with our cash and cash equivalents, operating cash flows and bank borrowings.

We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changes in business conditions or other future developments. If these sources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity or equity-linked securities could result in additional dilution to stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that would restrict operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

As of December 31, 2025, we had current assets of $126.1 million, consisting of $118.4 million in cash, $6.5 million in accounts receivable, $45,202 in inventories, and $1.2 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets Our current liabilities as of December 31, 2025 were $3.2 million, which is comprised of $1.1 million in accounts payable, $0.3 million in amounts due to a related party, $1.4 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. and $0.5 million in operating lease liabilities, current portion.

The following is a summary of our cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Net cash provided by financing activities - 7.6
Effect of foreign currency exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents 7.5 (2.7)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents 14.6 5.7
Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of period 103.8 98.0
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period $118.4 $103.8

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $1.1 million provided by operating activities for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of $6.3 million, or 572.7%.

The positive cash flow of $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to i) $7.2 million net income, ii) $0.2 million impairment loss of construction in progress and $0.6 million of amortization of operating right-of-use assets, iii) the decrease of $1.3 million in accounts receivable, net, $1.6 million in prepaid expenses and current assets, iii) the increase of $0.1 million in amounts due to a related party, $0.4 million in accrued expenses and current liabilities, and $0.6 million in operating lease liabilities, partially offset by iv) the increase of $4.4 million in long-term prepayment, reclassified from construction in progress due to delayed schedule, and the decrease of $0.2 million in accounts payable.

The positive cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to i) $6.0 million net income during the year ended December 31, 2024, ii) the increase of $0.6 million in accounts payable and $0.1 million in amounts due to a related party, partially offset by iii) the decrease of $0.4 million gain on changes in fair value of common stock purchase warrants liability, $0.3 million in accounts receivable and $1.8 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets (mainly in prepaid $0.9 million of consulting service fees), and iv) the decrease of $3.3 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Investing Activity

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 stayed at $0.3 million, respectively, representing the purchase of property, plant and equipment and construction in progress.

Financing Activities

There was no cash flow in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $7.6 million, including $9.0 million in net proceeds from the 2024 Uplisting Offering, partially offset by $1.4 million repayment of convertible promissory notes.

There is no assurance that exchange rates between the RMB and the U.S. Dollar will remain stable. Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company’s business.

Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe our cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities and financing activities will satisfy our working capital needs, capital expenditures and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations for at least the next 12 months.

The majority of the Company’s revenues and expenses were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China. There is no assurance that exchange rates between the RMB and the U.S. Dollar will remain stable. Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company’s business.

Holding Company Structure

Wetouch is a holding company incorporated in Nevada with no material operations of its own. We conduct substantially all of our operations through our subsidiary established in mainland China. Our equity structure is a direct holding structure, that is, Wetouch, a Nevada corporation listed in the U.S., controls Sichuan Vtouch though BVI Wetouch. See “Item 1. Business – Corporate History and Structure” for more details.

We face various risks and uncertainties relating to doing business in China. Our business operations are primarily conducted in China, and we are subject to complex and evolving PRC laws and regulations. For example, we face risks associated with regulatory approvals on offshore offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory actions, and oversight on cybersecurity and data privacy, which may impact our ability to conduct certain businesses, accept foreign investments, or list and conduct offerings on a United States or other foreign exchange. These risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of our common stock, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to continue to offer securities to investors, or cause the value of such securities to significantly decline. For a detailed description of risks relating to doing business in China, see “Item 1.A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China.”

The PRC government’s significant discretion and authority in regulating our operations and its oversight and control over offerings conducted overseas by, and foreign investment in, China-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. Implementation of industry-wide regulations in this nature may cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless. For more details, see “Item 1.A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Doing Business in China— Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. The PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless.”

Risks and uncertainties arising from the legal system in China, including risks and uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and quickly evolving rules and regulations in China, could result in a material adverse change in our operations and cause our Common Stock to decrease in value or become worthless. For more details, see “Item 1.A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Doing Business in China— Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system, including uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and sudden and unexpected changes in laws and regulations in China, could adversely affect us and limit the legal protections available to you and us.”

Cash and Other Assets Transfers between the Holding Company and Its Subsidiaries

As of March 31, 2026, Wetouch made cumulative capital contributions of RMB348.0 million (US$49.8 million) to its PRC subsidiary through intermediate holding companies and were accounted as long-term investments of Wetouch. As of the date of this Annual Report, these funds have been used by the Company’s PRC subsidiary for its operations.

To date, there have not been any dividends or other distributions from our PRC subsidiary to Wetouch. Wetouch, as a holding company, may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its PRC subsidiary for its cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to its stockholders, subject to Wetouch’s charter and Nevada law, or to service any expenses and other obligations it may incur.

Within our direct holding structure, the cross-border transfer of funds from Wetouch to its PRC subsidiary is permitted under laws and regulations of the PRC currently in effect. Specifically, Wetouch is permitted to provide funding to its PRC subsidiary in the form of shareholder loans or capital contributions, subject to satisfaction of applicable government registration, approval and filing requirements in China. There are no quantity limits on Wetouch’s ability to make capital contributions to its PRC subsidiary under the PRC law and regulations. However, the PRC subsidiary may only procure stockholder loans from HK Wetouch in an amount equal to the difference between its registered capital and total investment amount as recorded in the Chinese Foreign Investment Comprehensive Management Information System or 2.5 times of its net assets, at the discretion of such PRC subsidiary. For additional information, see “Item 1.A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China —PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds of any offerings or financings to make loans or additional capital contributions to our Chinese subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.”

The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”) and its implementation rules provide that a withholding tax at a rate of 10% will be applicable to dividends payable by PRC companies to non-PRC-resident enterprises unless reduced under treaties or arrangements between the PRC central government and the governments of other countries or regions where the non-PRC resident enterprises are tax resident. Pursuant to the tax agreement between mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the withholding tax rate in respect to the payment of dividends by a PRC enterprise to a Hong Kong enterprise may be reduced to 5% from a standard rate of 10%. However, if the relevant tax authorities determine that our transactions or arrangements are for the primary purpose of enjoying a favorable tax treatment, the relevant tax authorities may adjust the favorable withholding tax in the future. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the reduced 5% withholding rate will apply to dividends received by our Hong Kong subsidiary from our PRC subsidiaries. This withholding tax will reduce the amount of dividends we may receive from our PRC subsidiaries.

There is no assurance that the PRC government will not intervene or impose restrictions on the ability of us or our subsidiary to transfer cash. Most of our cash is in Renminbi, and the PRC government could prevent the cash maintained in our bank accounts in mainland China from leaving mainland China, could restrict deployment of the cash into the business of our subsidiaries and restrict the ability to pay dividends. For details regarding the restrictions on our ability to transfer cash between us, and our subsidiaries, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China — Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively and affect the value of your investment.” We currently do not have cash management policies that dictate how funds are transferred between our holding company and our subsidiaries.

Restrictions on Our Ability to Transfer Cash Out of China and to U.S. Investors

Our PRC subsidiary’s ability to distribute dividends is based upon its distributable earnings. Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiary to pay dividends to its shareholders only out of its accumulated profits, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, under PRC law, our PRC subsidiary is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds until such reserve funds reach 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. If our PRC subsidiary incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends to Wetouch.

To address persistent capital outflows and the RMB’s depreciation against the U.S. dollar in the fourth quarter of 2016, the People’s Bank of China and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, implemented a series of capital control measures in the subsequent months, including stricter vetting procedures for China-based companies to remit foreign currency for overseas acquisitions, dividend payments and shareholder loan repayments. The PRC government may continue to strengthen its capital controls and our PRC subsidiary’s dividends and other distributions may be subject to tightened scrutiny in the future. The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of mainland China. Therefore, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our profits, if any.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Capital Expenditure Commitment

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had commitment of RMB7.3 million (equivalent to $1.05 million) for construction in progress.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025.

Critical Accounting Policies

An accounting policy is considered critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time such estimate is made, and if different accounting estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the consolidated financial statements.

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experiences and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from our expectations as a result of changes in our estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates.

The following descriptions of critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and other disclosures included in this registration statement. When reviewing our financial statements, you should consider (i) our selection of critical accounting policies, (ii) the judgments and other uncertainties affecting the application of such policies and (iii) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions.

Revenue recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Therefore, no adjustments to opening retained earnings were necessary.

ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with customers, establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

ASC 606 requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way the Company records its revenue. The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that would result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams.

In accordance to ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it transfers its goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. The Company accounts for the revenue generated from sales of its products primarily to its customers in PRC and overseas, as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions, is subject to inventory risk, has latitude in establishing prices, and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide customers the specified goods, which the Company has control of the goods and has the ability to direct the use of goods to obtain substantially all the benefits. All of the Company’s contracts have one single performance obligation as the promise is to transfer the individual goods to customers, and there is no separately identifiable other promises in the contracts. The Company’s revenue streams are recognized at a point in time when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at delivery. The Company’s products are sold with no right of return and the Company does not provide other credits or sales incentive to customers. The Company’s sales are net of value added tax (“VAT”) and business tax and surcharges collected on behalf of tax authorities in respect of product sales.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit quality. Contract assets are recognized for in related accounts receivable. Contract liabilities are recognized for contracts where payment has been received in advance of delivery. The contract liability balance can vary significantly depending on the timing when an order is placed and when shipment or delivery occurs. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, other than accounts receivable and advances from customers, the Company had no other material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. Costs of fulfilling customers’ purchase orders, such as shipping, handling and delivery, which occur prior to the transfer of control, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense when incurred.

The Company generally warrants that its products will substantially conform to the agreed-upon specifications for three years from the date of shipment. The Company’s liability is limited to either a credit equal to the purchase price or replacement of the defective part. Returns, after sales services and technical support under warranty have historically been immaterial. As such, the Company does not record a specific warranty reserve or consider activities related to such warranty, if any, to be a separate performance obligation.

Disaggregation of Revenues

The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by geography, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are disclosed in Note 16 to the financial statements.

Use of estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the allowance for estimated uncollectible receivables, inventory valuations, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, operating lease, the recoverability of long-lived assets, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, revenue recognition and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventories

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a weighted average. For work-in-process and manufactured inventories, cost consists of raw materials, direct labor and an allocated portion of the Company’s production overhead. The Company writes down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. For finished goods and work-in-process, if the estimated net realizable value for an inventory item, which is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs to completion and disposal, is lower than its cost, the specific inventory item is written down to its estimated net realizable value. Net realizable value for raw materials is based on replacement cost. Provisions for inventory write-downs are included in the cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Inventories are carried at this lower cost basis until sold or scrapped. Reversal of obsolete inventory and write-off inventory were $36,971 and $54,873 were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Convertible Promissory Notes

The Company accounts for its convertible promissory notes according to guidance of ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating the requirement to separate embedded conversion features from the host contract when the conversion features are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815.

The Company analyzes the convertible notes for the existence of a beneficial conversion feature. The Company considered the three characteristics of a derivative instrument listed in ASC 815-10-15-83: (i) having one or more underlyings and one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both; (ii) requiring no initial net investment; and (iii) permitting net settlement.

Since the Company’s notes have fixed interest rate, specified notional principal and settlement date, which no other events would affect specified settlement, and the Company received net proceeds after issuance costs and discount, which the Company recorded as the net proceeds or net settled investment, the management assessed that the Notes did not do not meet the definition of a derivative instruments and an embedded feature would not be bifurcated. The discounts on the convertible notes, are amortized to interest expense, using the effective interest method, over the terms of the related convertible notes.

On February 23, 2024, immediately upon the closing of the 2024 Public Offering, the Company made a full payment to the remaining five outstanding promissory notes. (see details in NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE-a) Convertible promissory notes). There were no convertible promissory notes as of December 31, 2024.

Common stock purchase warrants

The Company also analyzed the warrants in accordance with ASC 815, to determine whether the warrants meet the definition of a derivative and, if so, whether the warrants meet the scope exception of ASC 815-40, which is that contracts issued or held by the reporting entity that are both (1) indexed to its own stock and (2) classified in stockholders’ equity shall not be considered to be derivative instruments for purposes of ASC 815-40.

The Company concluded that the Note Warrants (as defined in NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE – ii) Warrants) issued in October, November and December 2021 financing should be treated as a derivative liability because the Warrants are entitled to a price adjustment provision to allow the exercise price to be increased or reduced in the event the Company issues or sells any additional shares of common stock at a price per share more or less than the then-applicable exercise price or without consideration, which is typically referred to as a “Down-round protection” or “anti-dilution” provision. According to ASC 815-40, the “Down-round protection” provision is not considered to be an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares which leads the Warrants to fail to be qualified as indexed to the Company’s own stock and then to fail to meet the scope exceptions of ASC 815. Therefore, the Company accounted for the Warrants as derivative liabilities under ASC 815. Pursuant to ASC 815, derivatives are measured at fair value and re-measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings at each reporting period.

The Company used a Black-Scholes-pricing model to estimate the fair values of common stock purchase warrants at the balance sheet dates.

The Note Warrant (see details in NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE-b) Note Warrant) was issued in 2021 which was valid for three years and expired during the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company recorded nil and $378,371 gain on changes of fair value of common stock purchase warrant liability for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

An uncertain tax position is recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company believes that there were no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company’s operating subsidiary Sichuan Vtouch in China is subject to the income tax laws of the PRC. No significant income was generated outside the PRC for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, all of the Company’s tax returns of its PRC Subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their expected useful lives, as follows:

Useful life
Buildings 20 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Vehicles 4 years

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income (loss) as other income or expenses.

Construction in progress, funded by Company’s working capital, represents manufacturing facilities and office building under construction, is stated at cost and transferred to property, plant and equipment when it is substantially ready for its intended use. No depreciation is recorded for construction in progress. The management estimate that construction in progress for our new facilities will be completed by the first half of 2027 and will transfer construction in progress to property, plant and equipment to start depreciation.

Land use right, net

A land use right in the PRC represents an exclusive right to occupy, use and develop a piece of land during the contractual term of the land use right. Land use right is usually paid in one lump sum at the date the right is granted or at the date of the prepayment pursuant to the land use right transfer contract with the local government. The prepayment usually covers the entire duration period of the land use right. The lump sum advance payment is capitalized and recorded as land use right and then charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period of the right.

On August 6, 2021, Sichuan Vtouch entered into a contract with Chengdu Wenjiang District Planning and Natural Resources Bureau (“Wenjiang Bureau”) for the purchase of a land use right of a parcel of land of 131,010 square feet (12,171. 28 square meters) for a consideration of RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) for the Company’s new facility. The Company paid the consideration in full by November 18, 2021 and recorded in the prepayment.

Pursuant to the contract, Sichuan Vtouch will construct a new facility on this parcel according to the specifications. Once the Project is fully completed, Wenjiang Bureau shall transfer the title of land use right to Sichuan Vtouch for 20 years.

The Company’s new facility started in August 2021 yet was delayed and suspended due to the outbreak of Covid-19 and government-ordered shutdowns in China. The Company has rescheduled and extended the completion by first half of 2027 with the production at the new facilities will commencing by the end of 2027.

During the years ended December 31, 2025, management assessed the probability of the obtaining the land use right upon the completion of the new facility, reclassified prepayment of RMB3,925,234 (equivalent to $561,301) to land use right, started the amortization by a useful life of approximately 16 years.

The amortization expense of land use rights was US$16,718 for the years ended December 31, 2025, and included in general and administrative expenses.

Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. An asset or liability categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Accounting guidance also describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates.

Impairment of long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, land use rights, are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset or asset group to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying value of an asset or asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset or asset group. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Assets to be disposed are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. There was $175,426 and nil impairment of construction in progress recognized for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Lease

The Company adopts ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) for all periods presented. The Company elects the short-term lease exemption for all contracts with lease terms of 12 months or less.

Under the guidance of AUS 2016-02, an entity is required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements.

The Company’s lease terms include options to renew or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option. The Company determines if a contract contains a lease based on whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset which the Company does not own and whether it has the right to direct the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are recognized as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease incentives received. Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), because the interest rate implicit in most of the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The IBR is a hypothetical rate based on the Company’s understanding of what its credit rating would be to borrow and resulting interest the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over the lease term on a collateralized basis. Lease payments may be fixed or variable, however, only fixed payments or in-substance fixed payments are included in the Company’s lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments are recognized in operating expenses in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

The lease right-of-use assets are initially measured at the carrying amount of the lease liability and adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, remaining balance of lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, or impairment charges relating to the right-of-use-asset. Lease expense for minimum lease payments exclusive of the value-added tax are recognized on straight-line basis over the lease term The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients at transition. The Company elected certain practical expedients that must be elected as a package, which permit the Company to not reassess, under the new standard, prior conclusions about (1) lease identification, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company elected a short-term lease exception policy, which allows entities to not apply Topic 842 to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and a hindsight policy, which allows an entity to include current considerations for existing leases when determining initial lease terms. The Company has also elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for all leases, and elected to utilize an IBR (incremental borrowing rate) that is risk free rate plus premium for all leases when calculating the lease liability.

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in RMB to US$ is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Recently issued accounting guidance

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

In October 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements—codification amendments in response to SEC’s disclosure Update and Simplification initiative which amend the disclosure or presentation requirements of codification subtopic 230-10 Statement of Cash Flows—Overall, 250-10 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—Overall, 260-10 Earnings Per Share—Overall, 270-10 Interim Reporting—Overall, 440-10 Commitments—Overall, 470-10 Debt—Overall, 505-10 Equity—Overall, 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging—Overall, 860-30 Transfers and Servicing—Secured Borrowing and Collateral, 932-235 Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas—Notes to Financial Statements, 946-20 Financial Services—Investment Companies—Investment Company Activities, and 974-10 Real Estate—Real Estate Investment Trusts—Overall. The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of above subtopics. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements or those that must provide financial statements to the SEC for securities purposes without contractual transfer restrictions, the effective date aligns with the date when the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. Early adoption is not allowed. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later from the date of the SEC’s removal.

ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, establishes incremental disaggregation of income tax disclosures pertaining to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires prospective application with the option to apply it retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 beginning January 1, 2025. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

Controls and procedures

As filed, 7,447 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2025, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). We concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed under the supervision of our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 based on the framework established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 was not effective.

A material weakness, as defined in the standards established by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The ineffectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses:

  • (i) the lack of sufficient competent financial reporting and accounting personnel with appropriate understanding of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting requirements to design and implement key controls over financial reporting process to address complex U.S. GAAP accounting issues and related disclosures, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements;
  • limited functional internal audit department or personnel that monitors the consistencies of the preventive internal control procedures as well as insufficient policies and procedures in internal audit function to ensure that our policies and procedures have been carried out as planned

Management believes that the material weaknesses that were identified did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that these weaknesses, if not properly remediated, could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Management’s Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness

Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions planned include:

  • hiring more qualified accounting personnel with relevant U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience and qualifications to strengthen our financial reporting function and to set up a financial and system control framework;
  • appointing Ms. Xing Tang, who has extensive experience in financial reporting and internal controls, including familiarity with Nasdaq financial reporting and compliance requirements, as its Chief Financial Officer in July 2024, and who served as Chief Financial Officer of Elong Power Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: ELPW) from August 2013 to June 2024.
  • strengthening accounting record system with access control and financial reporting procedures, including organizing regular training for our accounting staff, especially training related to U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements;
  • Continue to cooperate with operation teams to ensure a control environment in place, and monitor the effectiveness of operations on existing controls and procedures.
  • Establish procedures to assess compliance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and improve overall internal control.

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment, and believe that these remediation efforts will deliver improvements in our control environment. Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the relevance of our risk-based approach and the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that exempt smaller reporting companies from this requirement.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fourth quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
