Item
2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Because
we, AiXin Life International, Inc. will not be filing our Annual Report on Form 10-K today, we are providing in this Report portions
of the financial information which will be released to our shareholders once our Report on Form 10-K is completed. We are also providing
an update as to the status of our Report on Form 10-K.
We
caution shareholders that as the audit of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, is not yet complete, although
we are confident that the information being provided today is accurate, it subject to change as ongoing audit procedures are completed.
Sales
revenue was $2.7 Million for calendar-year 2022, representing a decrease of approximately $359,000 (11.7%) from sales revenue of $3.1
Million reported calendar year 2021. The decrease in sales revenue is wholly attributable to the absence of any advertising revenues
in 2022 as compared to 2021, when advertising revenues were $1.9 Million. The decrease in advertising revenue was partially offset by
increases in sales of products by us, which grew from approximately $742,624 in 2021 to $1,851,676 in calendar year 2022. There were
also increases in room revenues, which grew to $262,065 from $114,086, and food and beverage revenues, which increased to $475,746 in
2022 from $201,755 the prior year. The positive trends represent the increase in activity in China during 2022 as the economy began to
return to normal despite China’s “zero tolerance policy”. This trend, however, stalled in the fourth quarter of 2022
and the first quarter of 2023, as economic activity decreased as Covid-19 cases increased immediately after the end of the “zero
tolerance policy” and many businesses and individuals elected to self-quarantine.
Operating
expenses grew to $5.3 Million in calendar year 2022 from $3.1 Million in 2021. This increase was driven by increases in costs of costs
sold, which increased to $1,103,160 in 2022 from $535,485 in 2021, reflecting the increase in product sales, hotel operating costs, which
grew to $1.7 Million in 2022 from $0.7 Million in 2021 as a result of the increase in activity at the hotel. Selling expenses also increased
to $787,637 or by approximately $317,000.
There
was also an increase in general and administrative expenses to $1.4 Million from $1.0 Million in 2021. The increases in selling expenses
and general and administrative expenses are consistent with the shift to the sale of our products from advertising revenues as distributing
our products requires more activity by our staff. Largely as a result of the substantial increase in our operating expenses, we recorded
a loss from operations of $2.6 Million in 2022, as opposed to an operating loss of $26,938 in 2021.
In calendar year 2022 we generated a net non-operating expense of $3.8 million, compared to non-operating income of $34,023 in 2021. The increase in non-operating expenses is primarily the result of recording an impairment loss slightly in excess of $3.8 Million in connection with the acquisition of Yunnan Runcangsheng Technology Co., Ltd. As this company is in the development stage and has generated limited revenues to date, we elected to write off the entire purchase price as we will be required to invest the capital necessary to realize the opportunities presented by this acquisition.
We
used $1.6 Million of cash in operations in calendar year 2022, as opposed to 2021, in which we operated on approximately a cash
break even basis, using only $57,804 in operations. In addition to using cash in operations, we used $3.5 Million in investing
activities, principally in connection with the acquisition of Yunnan Runcangsheng Technology Co., Ltd. and purchases of property and
equipment. We also used $2.4 Million on a net basis to reduce advances from related parties.
As
a result of our uses of cash as described above, our cash and equivalents as of December 31, 2022, were $510,128, as compared to $8,556,642
as of December 31, 2021. Similarly, our current assets, which were $9.2 Million as of the end of 2021 were reduced to $2.1 Million as
of the end of 2022, and our current liabilities increased by approximately $700,000 to $5.2 Million as of December 31, 2022.
Our
financial team along with members of our auditor are diligently working to complete our audit and Report on Form 10-K as soon as reasonably
practical. We believe the process is substantially complete and that we will file our Report on Form 10-K no later than April 28,
2023, and we do not anticipate any material changes to the information provided in this Report as a result of the processes remaining
to be performed. If the delay in filing our Report on Form 10-K continues beyond what we currently anticipate, we will provide you with
more detailed financial information regarding the performance of our business in 2022 and promptly report any material business developments.
