<u>Going concern uncertainty</u> 

The Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $234.9 million as December 31, 2024, and had a net loss of approximately $22.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. In connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities and has an accumulated deficit, management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow within the normal operating cycle of a twelve-month period to pay for its future payment obligations, the Company may be required to curtail or cease its operations. The Company completed a debt financing and received net proceeds of $7.0 million from a convertible note during the six months ended December 31, 2024. Furthermore, the Company completed a convertible note financing transaction of $8.7 million in January 2025. In February 2025, the Company signed an agreement to purchase certain cryptocurrency mining hardware and other equipment and expect to generate income from the equipment. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow within the normal operating cycle of a twelve-month period to pay for its future payment obligations, the Company may be required to curtail or cease its operations. Management is trying to alleviate the going concern risk through obtaining additional equity financings to support our working capital. However, there is no assurance that management will be successful in their future plans. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

<u>Basis of presentation</u>

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all the directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries listed below. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Interim results are not necessary indicative of results of a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to give a fair presentation have been included. The information in this Form 6-K should be read in conjunction with information in the annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on October 17, 2024.

<u>Principles of consolidation</u>

The consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the following subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

<u>Use of estimates and assumptions</u>

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make 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 periods. The significant estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements include the allowance for credit losses of accounts receivable and other receivables, stock-based compensation, and impairment and useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Actual results could be materially different from those estimates.

<u>Revenue recognition</u>

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) to recognize its revenue for all period presented. The core principle underlying this ASU is that the Company recognizes its revenue to represent the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. The Company's revenue streams to be recognized at a point in time comprise principally of music performance performed or education services provided. The Company's revenue streams to be recognized over a period of time comprise of its platform subscribed membership fees which is recognized over the subscription period.

The ASU 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. Upon adoption, the Company evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no material differences in the pattern of revenue recognition.

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when the contract is committed in writing, the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified, the contract has commercial substance and consideration to collect is substantially probable.

The Company offered the following services:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Concerts and Entertainment Events

Sale of concerts and entertainment events is accounted for as a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time on the day of the events.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Construction Management Consulting Services

Sale of construction management consulting services is accounted for as a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time at the time the services are performed.

As a practical expedient, the Company elects to record the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that the entity otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

Information of revenues is as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Six Months Ended<br> December 31,** | **For the Six Months Ended<br> December 31,** |
|  | **2024** | **2023** |

<u>Financial instruments</u>

US GAAP specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques for determining the fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). The valuation hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. In accordance with FASB ASC 820, the following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

The three levels of inputs are defined 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, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument;

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest.

<u>Cash and cash equivalents</u>

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

<u>Accounts receivable, net</u>

Accounts receivable include receivables from Color World platform subscription fees due from App payment collections agent and from entertainment event sales, net of an allowance for credit losses. Accounts receivable are recorded at subscription fees and entertainment event sales amount received from the Company's customers, and do not bear interest. Allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable is established based on various factors including historical payments and current economic trends. The Company reviews its allowance for accounts receivable by assessing individual accounts receivable over a specific aging and amount. All other balances are pooled based on historical collection experience. The estimate of expected credit losses is based on information about past events, current economic conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions that affect collectability. Accounts receivable are written off on a case-by-case basis after exhaustive efforts at collection are made, net of any amounts that may be collected.

<u>Other receivables</u>

Other receivables primarily include security deposit, receivables from sale of concert rights, and receivables from vendors upon cancellation of concerts, net of an allowance for credit losses. Allowance for credit losses for other receivables is established based on various factors including historical payments and current economic trends. The Company reviews its allowance for other receivables by assessing individual other receivables over a specific aging and amount. All other balances are pooled based on historical collection experience. The estimate of expected credit losses is based on information about past events, current economic conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions that affect collectability. Other receivables are written off on a case-by-case basis after exhaustive efforts at collection are made, net of any amount that may be collected.

<u>Prepayments</u>

Prepayments include funds deposited or advanced to outside vendors for future performance obligations, program license fees and service fees. As a standard practice in the music performance industry, many of the Company's vendors require a certain amount to be deposited with them as a guarantee that the Company will complete its purchases on a timely basis. The Company has legally binding contracts with its vendors, the prepayments will be used to offset performance fees, program license fees, purchase price or service fees, and the amounts are refundable and bear no interest if outside vendors breach the contracts.

<u>Plant and equipment, net</u>

Plant and equipment are stated at cost or at fair value of the identifiable assets acquired on the acquisition date less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while additions, renewals and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of depreciable assets and is computed using the straight-line method with 0%-5% residual value.

The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Useful life** |
| Office equipment | 3 years |

---

<u>Intangible assets, net</u>

Intangible assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is recognized on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company has obtained copyrights to use the online education academy courses for 3 years to unlimited years. The Company amortizes the copyrights with limited useful life over their useful life using the straight-line method and amortizes the copyrights with unlimited useful life over 5 years, which the copyrights are expected to contribute to the revenue of the Company's online education academy App.

<u>Accounting for long-lived assets</u>

The Company classifies its long-lived assets into: (i) office equipment and (ii) intangible assets.

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. It is possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technological or other industry changes. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group to be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

If the value of an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value, less disposition costs.

There were $14,626,083, and $0 impairment charges for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

<u>Accounts payable</u>

Accounts payable represent royal fees payable to the Company's vendor which were incurred from the revenues generated of its on-demand contents in the Color World Platform.

<u>Leases</u>

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842 "Leases". Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company's leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similarly owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception, therefore operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Its leases generally do not provide a residual guarantee. The operating lease ROU asset also excludes lease incentives. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet as operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities.

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. The Company has elected to include the carrying amount of operating lease liabilities in any tested asset group and include the associated operating lease payments in the undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows.

<u>Convertible notes</u>

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06 on July 1, 2021, the elimination of the beneficial conversion feature ("BCF") and cash conversion models in ASC 470-20 that requires separate accounting for embedded conversion features in convertible instruments results in the convertible debt instruments being recorded as a single liability (i.e., there is no separation of the conversion feature, and all proceeds are allocated to the convertible debt instruments as a single unit of account). Unless conversion features are derivatives that must be bifurcated from the host contracts in accordance with ASC 815-15 or, in the case of convertible debt, if the instruments are issued with a substantial premium, in the latter case, ASC 470-20-25-13 requires the substantial premium to be attributable to the conversion feature and recorded in additional paid-in capital (APIC).

<u>Stock-based compensation</u>

The Company records stock-based compensation expenses for employees at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense over the employee's requisite service period. The Company's expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination rate. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of an option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is based on the Company's current and expected dividend policy.

The Company records stock-based compensation expenses for non-employees at fair value on the grant date and recognizes the expense over the service provider's requisite service period.

<u>Income taxes</u>

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes," which requires the Company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Under this accounting standard, the effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

ASC 740-10, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," defines uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position as a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. United States federal, state and local income tax returns for the years of 2022 to 2024 are subject to examination by any applicable tax authorities.

<u>Loss per share</u>

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share.

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year using the two-class method. Using the two-class method, net loss is allocated between ordinary shares and other participating securities (i.e. preference shares) based on their participating rights.

Diluted loss per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts, such as warrants, options, restricted stock-based grants and convertible preferred stock, to issue ordinary shares were exercised and converted into ordinary shares. Ordinary share equivalents having an anti-dilutive effect on loss per share are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase ordinary shares at the average market price during the period. When the Company has a loss, no potential dilutive items are included since they would be anti-dilutive.

Stock dividends or stock splits are accounted for retroactively if the stock dividends or stock splits occur during the period, or retroactively if the stock dividends or stock splits occur after the end of the period but before the release of the financial statements, by considering it effective as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

<u>Segments</u>

The Company uses the management approach in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal reporting used by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), which is the Company's Chief Executive Officer and his direct reports, for making operating decisions about the allocation of resources and the assessment of performance in determining the Company's reportable operating segments. The Company operates as a single reportable segment. The Company's CODM reviews financial performance and allocates resources on a consolidated basis, using the significant revenue and expense categories of the Company as the key measurement (see Note 19 – Segment Information).

<u>Recent Accounting Pronouncements</u>

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"), which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company evaluated the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and believed that the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Note 12 – Leases**

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. US GAAP requires that the Company's leases be evaluated and classified as operating or finance leases for financial reporting purposes. The classification evaluation begins at the commencement date and the lease term used in the evaluation includes the non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with renewal option periods when the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably certain and failure to exercise such option which result in an economic penalty.

In July 2023, the Company entered a lease agreement for office space in Dubai, United Arab Emirates from August 4, 2023, through August 3, 2025, with a rental fee of $8,621 per month. The Company recognized the operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities on lease inception on August 4, 2023.

The components of the lease expenses consist of the following:

---

As of December 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, CACM and Color Star Ohio's net operating loss carry forward for the U.S. income taxes was approximately $2.2 million and $2.6 million, receptively. The net operating loss carry forwards are available to reduce future years' taxable income for unlimited years but limited to 80% use per year. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company's operating history and continued losses in the U.S. If the Company is unable to generate taxable income in its United States operations, it is more likely than not that it will not have sufficient income to utilize its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million related to its U.S. operations as of December 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, respectively.

The net operating loss carry forwards are available to reduce future years' taxable income for unlimited years. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company's operating history and continued losses in United Arab Emirates. If the Company is unable to generate taxable income in its United Arab Emirates operations, it is more likely than not that it will not have sufficient income to utilize its deferred tax assets.

The net operating loss carry forwards are available to reduce future years' taxable income for no longer than five years starting from the year subsequent to the year in which the loss was incurred. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company's operating history in PRC. If the Company is unable to generate taxable income in its PRC operations, it is more likely than not that it will not have sufficient income to utilize its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets of $181 and $19 related to its PRC operations as of December 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, respectively.

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. The Company's management does not expect any liability from the disposition of such claims and litigation individually or in the aggregate would have a material adverse impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

<u>Senior Secured Convertible Notes</u>

Pursuant to the SPA dated September 27, 2024, the Company may sell to the investors, from time to time, up to US$40,000,000 in the maximum aggregate subscription amount of the Company's senior secured convertible notes and accompanying ordinary share purchase warrants ("Additional Closings"), with substantially the same terms as the Initial Notes and Initial Warrants issued to the Purchasers in the first closing on September 30, 2024 ("Initial Closing").

On January 16, 2025, the Company and the Purchasers elected to consummate an additional closing, pursuant to which the Company shall issue senior secured convertible notes to the Purchasers in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $8.7 million (the "New Notes 3"), having an original issue discount of 8%, a maturity date twelve months from the date of issuance, bearing an interest rate of 6% per annum, and convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company, and accompanying Series B Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,467,692 Ordinary Shares ("New Warrants 3"), with an exercise price of $2.11 per Ordinary Share. The offering of the New Notes 3 and New Warrants 3 resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $8.0 million before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses ("Third Offering").

The New Notes 3 are convertible into the Company's Ordinary Shares at the holder's option, immediately upon issuance, in whole or in part, until the New Notes 3 is fully converted, at the lower of (i) the fixed conversion price of $2.11 (the "Conversion Price 3"), or (ii) a price equal to the greater of (x) the floor price of $1.00 (the "Floor Price 3") and (y) Alternate Conversion Price. If the Company raises funds through subsequent financings, the holder can require the Company to use up to 30% of the proceeds to redeem the New Notes 3 at 105% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. The Conversion Price 3 will also be adjusted proportionately if the Company issues dividends, splits, or combines its Ordinary Shares. The New Note 3 is secured by all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries under a certain security agreement and subsidiary guarantee, and the New Note 3 ranks senior to all other Company debts and liabilities.

The Third Offering closed on January 21, 2025, upon the satisfaction or waiver of all closing conditions, and resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $8.0 million before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses.

The Company also entered into a placement agency agreement dated September 27, 2024, with Maxim Group, LLC, as exclusive placement agent (the "Placement Agent"), pursuant to which the Placement Agent agreed to act as the placement agent in connection with the Offering. The Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent an aggregate fee equal to 6.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the Third Offering.

***Gross Profit*.** No gross profit during the six months ended December 31, 2024. We had a gross profit of approximately $0.3 million for the concert and entertainment events and construction management consulting services during the six months ended December 31, 2023.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses*.** Selling, general and administrative expenses mainly consist of advertising and marketing costs, office rent and expenses, depreciation expense, costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities, and professional fees paid to third parties. We incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $3.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to approximately $3.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, an increase of approximately $0.3 million.

The increase was primarily due to approximately $0.6 million increase in amortization expense of our intangible assets and approximately $0.3 million increase in professional fees as we had more financing activities, offset by approximately $0.5 million decrease in payroll and approximately $0.1 million decrease in office and other miscellaneous general and administrative expenses.

***Allowance for Credit Losses.*** Allowance for credit losses were approximately $0.7 million and $15.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to approximately $15.1 million decrease in allowance for credit losses expenses on our aged receivables as we had less receivables as of December 31, 2024.

 ****

***Stock Compensation Expenses*.** Stock compensation expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to approximately $2.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was mainly due to the shares that we issued to our consulting service providers were vesting in the six months ended December 31, 2023 and the decrease of stock price for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which we issued the stock granted to our managements and employees stock with lower fair value of in the six months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023.

***Impairment loss of long-lived assets*.** Impairment loss of long-live assets was $14.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to approximately $0 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. We determined our existing copyrights of online education academy courses will no longer able to generate future cash flows for us. As a result, we fully wrote off the intangible assets accordingly.

***Loss from Operations.*** We incurred losses from operations of approximately $22.8 million and approximately $21.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The increase of approximately $1.8 million in losses was primarily due to the reasons previously discussed.

***Total Other Income (Expense), Net*.** Our total other income (expense), net, consists of other income, interest income, amortization of debt issuance costs and finance expense. We had a total other expense, net, of approximately $1.9 million and other income, net, of approximately $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The increase of other expenses was primarily due to the increase in the amortization of debt issuance costs of $2.0 million and finance expense of approximately $0.5 million in connection with the convertible notes that we issued in September and November 2024.

 

***Provision for Income Taxes.*** We did not incur income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 as we had operating losses.

***Net Loss.*** We incurred a net loss of approximately $22.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to approximately $21.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. This change was the result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

As of December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $130,255, which was held by our consolidated entities in the U.S. and the People's Republic of China (PRC).

In assessing our liquidity, we monitor and analyze our cash on-hand and our operating and capital expenditure commitments. Our liquidity needs are to meet our working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations.

We engage in concerts and entertainment events, online entertainment performance and construction management consulting services. Our business is capital intensive, and equity financing has been utilized to finance our working capital requirements and capital expenditures. Our working capital was approximately $5.8 million as of December 31, 2024, as compared to approximately $1.4 million as of June 30, 2024.

In addition, we completed a debt financing and received net proceeds of $7.0 million from a convertible note during the six months ended December 31, 2024. Furthermore, we completed a convertible note financing transaction of $8.7 million in January 2025.

In February 2025, we signed an agreement to purchase certain cryptocurrency mining hardware and other equipment and expect to generate income from the equipment. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow within the normal operating cycle of a twelve-month period to pay for our future payment obligations, we may be required to curtail or cease our operations. Management is trying to alleviate the going concern risk through obtaining additional equity financings to support our working capital. However, there is no assurance that management will be successful in their future plans. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The following table provides summary information about our net cash flow for financial statement periods presented in this report:

Principal demands for liquidity are for working capital and general corporate purposes.

***Operating Activities***

Net cash used in operating activities totaled approximately $1.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was mainly due to a net loss of approximately $22.8 million offset by non-cash adjustments to reconcile the net loss to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $14.6 million impairment loss of long-lived assets, approximately $2.4 million of amortization expense, approximately $2.0 million of amortization of debt issuance costs, approximately $0.7 million of allowance for credit losses, approximately $1.7 million of stock compensation expense, approximately $0.6 million of accrued interest income, approximately $0.3 million of finance expense on convertible notes payable, approximately $4,000 of depreciation expense, and approximately $49,000 of amortization of right of use assets. Net cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net cash outflow, which consists of the increase of prepayments of approximately $1.3 million as we prepaid service fees for concert and boxing productions. The net cash outflow was offset by the increase of other payables and accrued liabilities of approximately $0.8 million, the decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $0.5 million as we received boxing productions revenue from our customer and the increase in lease liabilities of approximately $2,000 due to unpaid lease liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities totaled approximately $2.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly due to a net loss of approximately $21.1 million and non-cash adjustments to reconcile the net loss to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $15.8 million of allowance for credit losses, approximately $2.2 million of stock compensation expense, approximately $7,000 of depreciation expense, approximately $1.8 million of amortization expense, approximately $72,000 of amortization of debt issuance costs, and approximately $40,000 of amortization of right of use assets. Net cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net cash outflow, which mainly consists of an increase in other receivables of approximately $11.8 million which were subsequently reserved for allowance on credit losses. The net cash outflow was offset by the increase of prepayment of approximately $9.4 million as we prepaid service fees for live concert productions, and the increase of other payables and accrued liabilities of approximately $1.1 million as we incurred more payroll and received capital contribution in advance for potential private placement during the period, and the increase in lease liabilities of approximately $3,000 due to unpaid lease liabilities.

***Investing Activities***

Net cash used in investing activity totaled approximately $4.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was due to the $4.0 million loan to a third party.

There was no investing activity during the six months ended December 31, 2023.

***Financing Activities***

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $5.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, which was due to the proceeds from convertible notes, net of debt issuance cost, of approximately $7.0 million, offset by the payment of a convertible note of approximately $1.1 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $2.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which was due to the sale of ordinary shares, net of offering costs, of approximately $1.4 million through our private placement offering, the proceeds from a convertible notes, net of debt issuance cost, of $1.0 million, and the borrowings from our related parties of approximately $0.2 million to pay for certain operating expenses.
