**IT TECH PACKAGING, INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

**(1) Organization and Business Background**

IT Tech Packaging, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 9, 2005, under the name "Carlateral, Inc." Through the steps described immediately below, we became the holding company for Hebei Baoding Dongfang Paper Milling Company Limited ("Dongfang Paper"), a producer and distributor of paper products in China, on October 29, 2007.

Effective on August 1, 2018, we changed our corporate name to IT Tech Packaging, Inc.. The name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of IT Tech Packaging, Inc., our wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity. In connection with the name change, our common stock began being traded under a new NYSE symbol, "ITP," and a new CUSIP number, 46527C100, at such time.

On June 9, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The Reverse Stock Split become effective on July 7, 2022 (the "Effective Date"), and the shares began trading on the split-adjusted basis on the NYSE American under the Company's existing trading symbol "ITP" at market open on July 8, 2022. The new CUSIP number following the Reverse Stock Split is 46527C 209. All references made to share or per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and applicable disclosures have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of the Reverse Stock Split.

On October 29, 2007, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement"), the Company acquired DongfangZhiye Holding Limited ("Dongfang Holding"), a corporation formed on November 13, 2006 under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and issued the shareholders of Dongfang Holding an aggregate of 7,450,497 (as adjusted for a four-for-one reverse stock split effected in November 2009) shares of our common stock, which shares were distributed pro-rata to the shareholders of Dongfang Holding in accordance with their respective ownership interests in Dongfang Holding. At the time of the Merger Agreement, Dongfang Holding owned all of the issued and outstanding stock and ownership of Dongfang Paper and such shares of Dongfang Paper were held in trust with Zhenyong Liu, Xiaodong Liu and Shuangxi Zhao, for Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhao (the original shareholders of Dongfang Paper) to exercise control over the disposition of Dongfang Holding's shares in Dongfang Paper on Dongfang Holding's behalf until Dongfang Holding successfully completed the change in registration of Dongfang Paper's capital with the relevant PRC Administration of Industry and Commerce as the 100% owner of Dongfang Paper's shares. As a result of the merger transaction, Dongfang Holding became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Dongfang Holding's wholly owned subsidiary, Dongfang Paper, became an indirectly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Dongfang Holding, as the 100% owner of Dongfang Paper, was unable to complete the registration of Dongfang Paper's capital under its name within the proper time limits set forth under PRC law. In connection with the consummation of the restructuring transactions described below, Dongfang Holding directed the trustees to return the shares of Dongfang Paper to their original shareholders, and the original Dongfang Paper shareholders entered into certain agreements with Baoding Shengde Paper Co., Ltd. ("Baoding Shengde") to transfer the control of Dongfang Paper over to Baoding Shengde.

On June 24, 2009, the Company consummated a number of restructuring transactions pursuant to which it acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Shengde Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. Shengde Holdings Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 25, 2009. On June 1, 2009, Shengde Holdings Inc. incorporated Baoding Shengde, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the PRC. Because Baoding Shengde is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shengde Holdings Inc., it is regarded as a wholly foreign-owned entity under PRC law.

**IT TECH PACKAGING, INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

To ensure proper compliance of the Company's control over the ownership and operations of Dongfang Paper with certain PRC regulations, on June 24, 2009, the Company entered into a series of contractual agreements (the "Contractual Agreements") with Dongfang Paper and Dongfang Paper Equity Owners via the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Shengde Holdings Inc. ("Shengde Holdings") a Nevada corporation and Baoding Shengde Paper Co., Ltd. ("Baoding Shengde"), a wholly foreign-owned enterprise in the PRC with an original registered capital of $10,000,000 (subsequently increased to $60,000,000 in June 2010). Baoding Shengde is mainly engaged in production and distribution of digital photo paper and single-use face masks and is 100% owned by Shengde Holdings. Prior to February 10, 2010, the Contractual Agreements included (i) Exclusive Technical Service and Business Consulting Agreement, which generally provides that Baoding Shengde shall provide exclusive technical, business and management consulting services to Dongfang Paper, in exchange for service fees including a fee equivalent to 80% of Dongfang Paper's total annual net profits; (ii) Loan Agreement, which provides that Baoding Shengde will make a loan in the aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 to Dongfang Paper Equity Owners in exchange for each such shareholder agreeing to contribute all of its proceeds from the loan to the registered capital of Dongfang Paper; (iii) Call Option Agreement, which generally provides, among other things, that Dongfang Paper Equity Owners irrevocably grant to Baoding Shengde an option to purchase all or part of each owner's equity interest in Dongfang Paper. The exercise price for the options shall be RMB1 which Baoding Shengde should pay to each of Dongfang Paper Equity Owner for all their equity interests in Dongfang Paper; (iv) Share Pledge Agreement, which provides that Dongfang Paper Equity Owners will pledge all of their equity interests in Dongfang Paper to Baoding Shengde as security for their obligations under the other agreements described in this section. Specifically, Baoding Shengde is entitled to dispose of the pledged equity interests in the event that Dongfang Paper Equity Owners breach their obligations under the Loan Agreement or Dongfang Paper fails to pay the service fees to Baoding Shengde pursuant to the Exclusive Technical Service and Business Consulting Agreement; and (v) Proxy Agreement, which provides that Dongfang Paper Equity Owners shall irrevocably entrust a designee of Baoding Shengde with such shareholder's voting rights and the right to represent such shareholder to exercise such owner's rights at any equity owners' meeting of Dongfang Paper or with respect to any equity owner action to be taken in accordance with the laws and Dongfang Paper's Articles of Association. The terms of the agreement are binding on the parties for as long as Dongfang Paper Equity Owners continue to hold any equity interest in Dongfang Paper. A Dongfang Paper Equity Owner will cease to be a party to the agreement once it transfers its equity interests with the prior approval of Baoding Shengde. As the Company had controlled Dongfang Paper since July 16, 2007 through Dongfang Holding and the trust until June 24, 2009, and continued to control Dongfang Paper through Baoding Shengde and the Contractual Agreements, the execution of the Contractual Agreements is considered as a business combination under common control.

On February 10, 2010, Baoding Shengde and the Dongfang Paper Equity Owners entered into a Termination of Loan Agreement to terminate the above- mentioned $10,000,000 Loan Agreement. Because of the Company's decision to fund future business expansions through Baoding Shengde instead of Dongfang Paper, the $10,000,000 loan contemplated was never made prior to the point of termination. The parties believe the termination of the Loan Agreement does not in itself compromise the effective control of the Company over Dongfang Paper and its businesses in the PRC.

An agreement was also entered into among Baoding Shengde, Dongfang Paper and the Dongfang Paper Equity Owners on December 31, 2010, reiterating that Baoding Shengde is entitled to 100% of the distributable profit of Dongfang Paper, pursuant to the above- mentioned Contractual Agreements. In addition, Dongfang Paper and the Dongfang Paper Equity Owners shall not declare any of Dongfang Paper's unappropriated earnings as dividend, including the unappropriated earnings of Dongfang Paper from its establishment to 2010 and thereafter.

On June 25, 2019, Dongfang Paper entered into an acquisition agreement with the shareholder of Tengsheng Paper Co., Ltd. ("Tengsheng Paper"), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the PRC, pursuant to which Dongfang Paper would acquire Tengsheng Paper. Full payment of the consideration in the amount of RMB320 million (approximately $45 million) was made on February 23, 2022.

QianrongQianhui Hebei Technology Co., Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Shengde holding, was incorporated on July 15, 2021. It is a service provider of high quality material solutions for textile, cosmetics and paper production.

The Company has no direct equity interest in Dongfang Paper. However, through the Contractual Agreements described above, the Company is found to be the primary beneficiary (the "Primary Beneficiary") of Dongfang Paper and is deemed to have the effective control over Dongfang Paper's activities that most significantly affect its economic performance, resulting in Dongfang Paper and its subsidiary, being treated as a controlled variable interest entity of the Company in accordance with Topic 810 - Consolidation of the Accounting Standards Codification (the "ASC") issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the "FASB"). The revenue generated from Dongfang Paper and Tengsheng Paper for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was accounted for 100% of the Company's total revenue. Dongfang Paper and Tengsheng Paper also accounted for 96.09% and 96.07% of the total assets of the Company as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, details of the Company's subsidiaries and variable interest entities are as follows:

---

| Tengsheng Paper | April 07, 2011 | PRC | Control\*\* | Paper production and distribution |

---

\* Dongfang Paper is treated as a 100% controlled variable interest entity of the Company.

\*\* Tengsheng Paper is 100% subsidiary of Dongfang Paper.

However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could cause the Company's current ownership structure to be found to be in violation of any existing and/or future PRC laws or regulations and could limit the Company's ability, through its subsidiary, to enforce its rights under these contractual arrangements. Furthermore, shareholders of the VIE may have interests that are different than those of the Company, which could potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the terms of the aforementioned agreements.

In addition, if the current structure or any of the contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC law, the Company may be subject to penalties, which may include, but not be limited to, the cancellation or revocation of the Company's business and operating licenses, being required to restructure the Company's operations or being required to discontinue the Company's operating activities. The imposition of any of these or other penalties may result in a material and adverse effect on the Company's ability to conduct its operations. In such case, the Company may not be able to operate or control the VIE, which may result in deconsolidation of the VIE. The Company believes the possibility that it will no longer be able to control and consolidate its VIE will occur as a result of the aforementioned risks and uncertainties is remote.

**(2) Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies**

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by the United States of America generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for annual financial statements are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 of the Company, and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity (which we sometimes refer to collectively as "the Company", "we", "us" or "our").

*Principles of Consolidation*

 

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise noted. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2025 and the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments 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. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

*Liquidity and Going Concern*

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had current assets of $35,764,365 (including a VAT （"Value Added Tax"）recoverable of Tengsheng Paper in amount of $13,307,848), and current liabilities of $18,667,302, resulting in a working capital of $17,097,063. However, production of Tengsheng Paper has been suspended in 2024 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025, rendering related VAT unrecoverable in the short term. Net working capital excluding VAT recoverable as of September 30, 2025 was a working capital of $3,789,215. Baoding Shengde and Tengsheng Paper have incurred loss that there is doubt about these subsidiaries ability to continue as going concerns. The main reason of losses was due to high depreciation costs, decreased market demand, and elevated material costs. Therefore, there was a substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as of September 30, 2025.

**IT TECH PACKAGING, INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

To address these challenges, the Company plans to optimize its raw material structure and stabilize manufacturing capacity utilization, which will help to reduce procurement and production costs. Additionally, the Company is actively exploring new products and adjusting pricing strategies in a timely manner to secure a larger market share.

Furthermore, the Company will maintain rigorous control over inventory, working capital, and cash flow to mitigate financial risks. The Company will also strategically utilize financing quotas from the capital market to ensure the smooth and healthy operation of the company.

The Company's continued existence as a going concern depends on the successful implementation of its business plan. This includes increasing market acceptance of its products to boost sales volume and achieve economies of scale, while deploying more effective marketing strategies and cost control measures to better manage the operating cash flow position.

*Valuation of long-lived asset*

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstances warrants such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset and intangible assets. Fair market value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets and intangible assets to be disposed are determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost to dispose.

*Fair Value Measurements*

 

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. It establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable inputs, which may be used to measure fair value and include the following:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

**IT TECH PACKAGING, INC.**

**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

Classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the Company's short term financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts and short-term bank loans and balance due to a related party, approximate at their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments; while loans from credit union and loans from a related party approximate at their fair value as the interest rates thereon are close to the market rates of interest published by the People's Bank of China.

*Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements*

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the possibility of impairment. For the continuing operations, long-lived assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there is an indicator of impairment, and they are recorded at fair value only when impairment is recognized. For discontinued operations, long-lived assets are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The fair value of these assets were determined using models with significant unobservable inputs which were classified as Level 3 inputs, primarily the discounted future cash flow.

*Share-Based Compensation*

 

The Company uses the fair value recognition provision of ASC Topic 718, *Compensation-Stock Compensation*, which requires the Company to expense the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of such instruments over the vesting period.

The Company also applies the provisions of ASC Topic 505-50, *Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees* to account for stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services. Such awards for services are recorded at either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more reliably measurable.

**(3) Restricted Cash**

The deposits were restricted due to the legal proceeding against Tengsheng Paper and Jie Ping, who served as the executive director and the legal representative of Tengsheng Paper.

The lease does not have significant rent escalation holidays, concessions, leasehold improvement incentives, or other build-out clauses. Further, the lease does not contain contingent rent provisions.

The lease include option to renew in condition that it is agreed by the landlord before expiry. Therefore, the majority of renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. The Company regularly evaluate the renewal options and when they are reasonably certain of exercise, the Company includes the renewal period in its lease term.

**(11) Derivative Liabilities**

The Company analyzed the warrant for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging, and hedging," and determined that the instrument should be classified as a liability since the warrant becomes effective at issuance resulting in there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options.

ASC 815 requires we assess the fair market value of derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item.

The Company determined its derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of September 30, 2025. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of each warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the September 30, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Nine months<br> ended**<br>**September 30, <br> 2025** |
| Expected term | 0.15 - 2.5 |
| Expected average volatility | 94% - 132% |
| Expected dividend yield | - |
| Risk-free interest rate | 0.45% - 3.98% |

In addition to the reversible future PRC income tax benefits stemming from the timing differences of items such as recognition of asset disposal gain or loss and asset depreciation, the Company was incorporated in the United States and incurred net operating losses of approximately $568,358 and $62,499 for U.S. income tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The net operating loss carried forward may be available to reduce future years' taxable income. These carry forwards would expire, if not utilized, during the period of 2030 through 2035. As of September 30, 2025, management believed that the realization of all the U.S. income tax benefits from these losses, which generally would generate a deferred tax asset if it can be expected to be utilized in the future, appears not more than likely due to the Company's limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company provided a 100% valuation allowance on the U.S. deferred tax asset benefit to reduce the total deferred tax asset to the amount realizable for the PRC income tax purposes. Management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and will make adjustments as warranted. A summary of the otherwise deductible (or taxable) deferred tax items is as follows:

As of September 30, 2025, except for the one-time transition tax under the 2017 TCJA which imposes a U.S. tax liability on all unrepatriated foreign E&Ps, the Company does not believe that its future dividend policy and the available U.S. tax deductions and net operating losses will cause the Company to recognize any other substantial current U.S. federal or state corporate income tax liability in the near future. Nor does it believe that the amount of the repatriation of the VIE's earnings and profits for purposes of paying dividends will change the Company's position that its PRC subsidiary Baoding Shengde and the VIE, Dongfang Paper are considered or are expected to be indefinitely reinvested offshore to support our future capacity expansion. If these earnings are repatriated to the U.S. resulting in U.S. taxable income in the future, or if it is determined that such earnings are to be remitted in the foreseeable future, additional tax provisions would be required.

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 740-10-05, Income Taxes. To date, the adoption of this interpretation has not impacted the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company performed self-assessment and the Company's liability for income taxes includes the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties which relate to tax years still subject to review by taxing authorities. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed, which in the PRC is usually 5 years. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company's liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company's results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, management considered that the Company had no uncertain tax positions affecting its consolidated financial position and results of operations or cash flows, and will continue to evaluate for any uncertain position in future. There are no estimated interest costs and penalties provided in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company's tax positions related to open tax years are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities and the major one is the China Tax Authority.

**(18) Segment Reporting**

Since March 10, 2010, Baoding Shengde started its operations and thereafter the Company manages its operations through three business operating segments: Dongfang Paper and Tengsheng Paper, which produces offset printing paper, corrugating medium paper and tissue paper, and Baoding Shengde, which produces face masks and digital photo paper. They are managed separately because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

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's CODM is Mr. Liu Zhengyong, the CEO.

The Company evaluates performance of its operating segments based on net income. Administrative functions such as finance, treasury, and information systems are centralized. However, where applicable, portions of the administrative function expenses are allocated among the operating segments based on gross revenue generated. The operating segments do share facilities in Xushui County, Baoding City, Hebei Province, China. All sales were sold to customers located in the PRC.

**(19) Concentration and Major Customers and Suppliers**

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no single customer contributed over 10% of total sales.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had three major suppliers accounted for 71%, 20% and 7% of total purchases. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had three major suppliers accounted for 73%, 18% and 7% of total purchases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had three major suppliers accounted for 74%, 18% and 6% of total purchases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had three major suppliers accounted for 74%, 16% and 7% of total purchases.

**(20) Concentration of Credit Risk**

Financial instruments for which the Company is potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash in reputable financial institutions in the PRC and the United States. Although it is generally understood that the PRC central government stands behind all of the banks in China in the event of bank failure, there is no deposit insurance system in China that is similar to the protection provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") of the United States as of as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. On May 1, 2015, the new "Deposit Insurance Regulations" was effective in the PRC that the maximum protection would be up to RMB500,000 ($70,368) per depositor per insured financial intuition, including both principal and interest. For the cash placed in financial institutions in the United States, the Company's U.S. bank accounts are all fully covered by the FDIC insurance as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, while for the cash placed in financial institutions in the PRC, the balances exceeding the maximum coverage of RMB500,000 amounted to RMB61,962,700 ($8,720,386) as of September 30, 2025.

**(21) Risks and Uncertainties**

The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, foreign currency exchange rates, and operating in the PRC under its various laws and restrictions.

**(22) Subsequent Event**

On October 31, 2025, the Company's Annual General Meeting adopted and approved the 2025 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan of IT Tech Packaging, Inc. (the"2025 ISP"). Under the 2025 ISP, the Company has reserved a total of 1,500,000 shares of common stock for issuance as or under awards to be made to the directors, key management employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements that are included elsewhere in this quarterly report.

In this quarterly report, references to "the Company," "we," "our" and "us" refer to IT Tech Packaging, Inc. and its PRC subsidiary and variable interest entity unless the context requires otherwise.

We make certain forward-looking statements in this report. Statements concerning our future operations, prospects, strategies, financial condition, future economic performance (including growth and earnings), demand for our products, and other statements of our plans, beliefs, or expectations, including the statements contained under the captions "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" as well as captions elsewhere in this document, are forward-looking statements. In some cases these statements are identifiable through the use of words such as "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "plan", "project", "target", "can", "could", "may", "should", "will", "would", and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The forward-looking statements we make are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various assumptions, risks, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by these forward-looking statements. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Indeed, it is likely that some of our assumptions may prove to be incorrect. Our actual results and financial position may vary from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements and the variances may be material. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, together with the other risks described from time to time in reports and documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements. In evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this report, you should consider various factors, including, without limitation, the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitably, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, and (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under federal securities laws.

Net working capital excluding VAT recoverable as of September 30, 2025 was a working capital of $3,789,215. Baoding Shengde and Tengsheng Paper have incurred loss that there is doubt about these subsidiaries' ability to continue as going concerns. The main reason of losses was due to high depreciation costs, decreased market demand, and elevated material costs. Therefore, there was a substantial doubt about the ability of us to continue as a going concern that we may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as of September 30, 2025.

To address these challenges, we plan to optimize our raw material structure and stabilize manufacturing capacity utilization, which will help to reduce procurement and production costs. Additionally, we are actively exploring new products and adjusting pricing strategies in a timely manner to secure a larger market share.

Furthermore, we will maintain rigorous control over inventory, working capital, and cash flow to mitigate financial risks. We will also strategically utilize financing quotas from the capital markets to ensure the smooth and healthy operation of the company.

Our continued existence as a going concern depends on the successful implementation of our business plan. This includes increasing market acceptance of our products to boost sales volume and achieve economies of scale, while deploying more effective marketing strategies and cost control measures to better manage the operating cash flow position.

<u>Capital Expenditure Commitment</u>

On May 5, 2020, the Company announced the planned commercial launch of a new tissue paper production line PM10 and signed an agreement to purchase a paper machine from a supplier. The new tissue paper production line is expected to be launched after the completion of trial runs.

As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately $3.5 million in capital expenditure commitments mainly related to the purchase of the PM 10 paper machine. The infrastructure work for PM10 is complete, while work on related ancillary facilities is ongoing. These commitments are expected to be financed by bank loans and cash flows generated from our business operations.

<u>Cash and Cash Equivalents</u>

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2025 was $9,119,707, an increase of $2,169,131, from $6,950,576 as of December 31, 2024. The increase of cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was attributable to a number of factors including:

<u>i. Net cash provided by operating activities</u>

Net cash provided by operating activities was $388,450 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The balance represented a decrease of cash of $2,442,661, or 86.28%, from $2,831,111 provided for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $6,903,85, representing an increase of loss of $1,105,629, or 19.07%, from $5,798,229 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Changes in various asset and liability account balances throughout the nine months ended September 30, 2025 also contributed to the net change in cash from operating activities in nine months ended September 30, 2025. Chief among such changes is the increase of accounts receivable in the amount of $1,811,293 during the nine months of 2025, an increase of $1,477,521 in the ending inventory balance as of September 30, 2025 (a decrease to net cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 cash flow purposes) , non-cash expenses relating to depreciation and amortization in the amount of $10,664,999, an increase of $1,319,298 in prepayment and other current assets (a decrease to net cash) and a net increase of $1,077,867 in other payables and accrued liabilities and related parties (an increase to net cash), as well as an increase in income tax payable of $225,114 (an increase to net cash) during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

<u>ii. Net cash used in investing activities</u>

We incurred $25,786 in net cash expenditures for purchases of property, plant and equipment during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $315,152 for the same period in 2024.

<u>iii. Net cash provided by financing activities</u>

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,649,855 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $2,112,706 for the same period in 2024. The cash inflow was mainly attributable to proceeds from the issuance of common stock in May 2025 and from short term bank loans.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us 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. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies are listed below:

<u>Revenue Recognition Policy</u>

The Company recognizes revenue when goods are delivered and a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist, and collectability is reasonably assured. Goods are considered delivered when the customer's truck picks up goods at our finished goods inventory warehouse.

<u>Long-Lived Assets</u>

The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining useful lives when events or circumstances lead management to believe that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. In such circumstances, those assets are written down to estimated fair value. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on market conditions, assumptions for operational performance of our businesses, and possible government policy toward operating efficiency of the Chinese paper manufacturing industry. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets was required. We are currently not aware of any events or circumstances that may indicate any need to record such impairment in the future.

<u>Foreign Currency Translation</u>

The functional currency of Dongfang Paper and Baoding Shengde is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi ("RMB"). Under ASC Topic 830-30, all assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the end of each fiscal period. The current exchange rates used by the Company as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 to translate the Chinese RMB to the U.S. Dollars are 7.1055:1 and 7.1884:1, respectively. Revenues and expenses are translated using the prevailing average exchange rates at 7.1583:1 and 7.0999:1 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss).

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We were the guarantor for Baoding Huanrun Trading Co., for its long-term bank loans in an amount of $4,362,818 (RMB31,000,000), which matures at various times in 2026. Baoding Huanrun Trading Co. is one of our major suppliers of raw materials. This helps us to maintain a good relationship with the supplier and negotiate better terms in payment for materials. If Huanrun Trading Co. were to become insolvent, the Company could be materially adversely affected. Except as aforesaid, we have no material off-balance sheet transactions.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under this ASU, public entities must annually (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). This ASU's amendments are effective for all entities that are subject to Topic 740, Income Taxes, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which emphasizes the importance of providing more granular and detailed expense information in financial statements. The update requires entities to disaggregate expenses by nature and function on the income statement, offering a clearer picture of an entity's cost structure and operational efficiency. This enhanced disclosure is intended to improve the transparency and comparability of financial reporting. Entities must apply the new guidance retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of these changes on its financial reporting and will implement the necessary adjustments to comply with the updated standards.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.**

***Foreign Exchange Risk***

 ****

While our reporting currency is the US dollar, almost all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB except for some cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risks as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US dollar and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the US dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our US dollar financial statements will decline. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

***Inflation***

 ****

Although we are generally able to pass along minor incremental cost inflation to our customers, inflation such as increases in the costs of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. We do not believe that inflation in China has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, however, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling and distribution, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase in line with the increased costs.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures.**

As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure (1) that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

 ****

There were no changes with respect to our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting in the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025.

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings.**

We may from time to time become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are currently not a party to any legal or administrative proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings against us in all material aspects other than the following:

On February 17, 2022, FT Global Capital, Inc. ("FTG"), filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Commercial Division of New York Supreme Court (the "Court"). FTG has brought a breach of contract action against the Company to recover fees in connection with an agreement that the parties entered into in April 2019 (the "Agreement"). The Company has answered FTG's complaint and has denied the allegations because it is the Company's position that FTG did not fulfill its obligations under the terms of the Agreement. Discovery is continuing. The Court issued a Status Conference Order (the "Order") dated April 15, 2024. According to the Order, the Court ordered that the Company has failed to appear and is in default, and that pursuant to the warning given in the Court's order dated March 22, 2024, the Company's default renders its answer subject to being stricken, and accordingly the answer of the Company was stricken. On April 18, 2024, FT Global filed a notice of motion for default judgment against the Company. By an order dated August 20, 2024, the Court granted the plaintiff's default motion on the issue of liability, with damages to be determined by a referee. The Company then moved to vacate the order dated August 20, 2024, but the Court denied the Company's motion on November 1, 2024, stating that the excuse proffered by the Company as to the reason it did not retain counsel in a timely fashion was not sufficient.

In November 2023, an individual plaintiff involved in a civil loan dispute filed a lawsuit against the defendants including Tengsheng Paper and Jie Ping, who served as the executive director and the legal representative of Tengsheng Paper, at the Lianchi District People's Court of Baoding City, China (the "PRC Court"). In December 2023, the plaintiff sought property preservation measures, requesting the PRC Court to freeze totaling RMB3.35 million worth of bank deposits held by Jie Ping and Tengsheng Paper, which was granted by the PRC Court. On June 14, 2024, the PRC Court ordered the defendants to repay the principal of the loan in the amount of RMB3,320,000 to the plaintiff, and Tengsheng Paper was jointly liable for repayment. As of September 30, 2025, a total of RMB6.70 million worth of bank deposits of Jie Ping and Tengsheng Paper was freezed.

On April 29, 2025, due to a labor dispute, Tengsheng Paper was designated as a dishonest judgment debtor by the PRC Court, with the case involving an amount of RMB 72,333.

On July 4, 2025, Tengsheng Paper was listed as person subject to enforcement by the PRC Court in connection with a sales contract dispute, with the case involving an amount of RMB149,325.

The ultimate resolution of the proceedings may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Failure to settle the proceedings or other unfavorable outcomes in these proceedings could result in significant damages, additional penalties or other remedies imposed against the Company. Litigation of this kind could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources. It could also result in our reputation being harmed and our stock price could decline as a result of allegations made in the course of the proceedings, regardless of the truthfulness of the allegations.
