SINO-GLOBAL SHIPPING AMERICA, LTD. AND AFFILIATES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Founded in the United States (the “U.S.”) in 2001, Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd., a Virginia corporation (“Sino-Global” or the “Company”), is a non-asset based global shipping and freight logistics integrated solution provider. The Company provides tailored solutions and value-added services for its customers to drive effectiveness and control in related links throughout the entire shipping and freight logistics chain. The Company conducts its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the U.S., the People’s Republic of China, including Hong Kong (the “PRC”), Australia and Canada. Currently, a significant portion of the Company’s business is generated from clients located in the PRC.

The Company’s Chinese subsidiary, Trans Pacific Shipping Limited, a wholly-owned foreign enterprise (“Trans Pacific Beijing”), is the 90% owner of Trans Pacific Logistics Shanghai Limited (“Trans Pacific Shanghai”). Trans Pacific Beijing and Trans Pacific Shanghai are referred to collectively as “Trans Pacific”.

Prior to fiscal year 2016, the Company’s shipping agency business was operated by its subsidiaries in the PRC. The Company’s ship management services were operated by its subsidiary in Hong Kong. The Company’s shipping and chartering services were operated by its subsidiaries in the U.S. and subsidiary in Hong Kong. Currently, the Company’s inland transportation management services are operated by its subsidiaries in the PRC, Hong Kong and the U.S. The Company’s freight logistics services are operated by its subsidiaries in the PRC and the U.S. The Company’s container trucking services are currently operated by its subsidiaries in the PRC and through a joint venture in the U.S. The Company has increased its business in the U.S. since the launch of the short haul container truck services web-based platform in December 2016.

In January 2016, the Company formed a subsidiary, Sino-Global Shipping LA Inc., a California corporation (“Sino LA”), for the purpose of expanding its business to provide freight logistics services to importers who ship goods into the U.S. The Company expects to generate additional revenues from providing inland transportation services and bulk cargo container services in the coming fiscal year.

In fiscal year 2016, affected by worsening market conditions in the shipping industry, the Company’s shipping agency business sector suffered a significant decrease in revenue due to a reduced number of ships served. As a result, the Company has suspended its shipping agency services business. Also, as a result of these market condition changes, the Company has suspended its ship management services business. In addition, in December 2015, the Company suspended its shipping and chartering services business, primarily as a result of the termination of a previously-contemplated vessel acquisition. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s business segments consist of inland transportation management services, freight logistics services and container trucking services.

In August 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized management to move forward with the development of a mobile application that will provide a full-service logistics platform between the U.S. and the PRC for short-haul trucking in the U.S.

Sino-Global completed development of a full-service logistics platform as of December 2016. Upon the completion of the platform, the Company signed two significant agreements with COSCO Beijing International Freight Co., Ltd. (“COSFRE Beijing”) and Sino-Trans Guangxi in December 2016. Pursuant to the agreement with COSFRE Beijing, the Company will receive a percentage of the total amount of each transportation fee for the arrangement of inland transportation services for COSFRE Beijing’s container shipments into U.S. ports. For the strategic cooperation framework agreement with Sino-Trans Guangxi, which is a subsidiary of Sino-Trans Limited, the Company expects to utilize both parties’ existing resources and establish an integrated logistics plan to provide an end-to-end supply chain solution for customers shipping soybeans and sulfur products from the U.S. to southern PRC via container.

On January 5, 2017, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement and formed a new joint venture company named ACH Trucking Center Corp. (“ACH Center”) with Jetta Global Logistics Inc. (“Jetta Global”). Along with the establishment of ACH Center, the Company began providing short haul trucking transportation and logistics services to customers located in the New York and New Jersey areas. The Company holds a 51% ownership stake in ACH Center. The financial statements of ACH Center have been included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

On January 9, 2017, the Company entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with China Ocean Shipping Agency Qingdao Co. Ltd. (“COSCO Qingdao”). COSCO Qingdao will utilize the Company’s full-service logistics platform to arrange the transport of its container shipments into U.S. ports. Sino-Global will receive a percentage of the total amount of each transportation fee in exchange for the arrangement of inland transportation services for COSCO Qingdao’s container shipments into U.S. ports.

F-5

On February 18, 2017, the Company entered into a cooperative transportation agreement with a related party, Zhiyuan International Investment & Holding Group (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. (the “Buyer” or “Zhiyuan Hong Kong”). Zhiyuan Hong Kong, jointly with China Minmetals Corporation and China Metallurgical Group Corporation, acts as the general designer, general equipment provider and general service contractor in the upgrade and renovation project of Perwaja Steel, located in Malaysia (the “Project”). The Company agreed to provide high-quality services including detailed transportation plan design, plan execution and necessary supervision of the execution at Zhiyuan Hong Kong’s demand, and the Company will receive a 1% to 1.25% transportation fee incurred in the Project as a commission for its services rendered (see Note 3 and Note 16). On July 7, 2017, the Company signed a supplemental agreement with the buyer, pursuant to which the Company will cooperate with Zhiyuan Hong Kong exclusively on the entire Project’s transportation needs. Pursuant to the supplemental agreement, the Company agrees to make prepayments to Zhiyuan Hong Kong for its share of packaging and transporting costs related to the Project; in return, the Company will receive 15% of the cost incurred in the Project from Zhiyuan Hong Kong as a service fee. The Project is expected to be completed in one to two years and the Company will collect its service fee in accordance with Project completion.

On September 11, 2017, the Company set up a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Sino-Global Supply Chain Management Ningbo Ltd., via the wholly-owned entity, Sino-Global Shipping New York Inc. This subsidiary primarily engages in supply chain management and freight logistics services.

Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all directly, indirectly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entity. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries, and its affiliates. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Sino-Global Shipping Agency Ltd., a PRC corporation (“Sino-China”), is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”), with the Company as the primary beneficiary. The Company, through Trans Pacific Beijing, entered into certain agreements with Sino-China, pursuant to which the Company receives 90% of Sino-China’s net income. The Company does not receive any payments from Sino-China unless Sino-China recognizes net income during its fiscal year. These agreements do not entitle the Company to any consideration if Sino-China incurs a net loss during its fiscal year. If Sino-China incurs a net loss during its fiscal year, the Company is not required to absorb such net loss.

As a VIE, Sino-China’s revenues are included in the Company’s total revenues, and any loss from operations is consolidated with that of the Company. Because of contractual arrangements between the Company and Sino-China, the Company has a pecuniary interest in Sino-China that requires consolidation of the financial statements of the Company and Sino-China.

The Company has consolidated Sino-China’s operating results because the entities are under common control in accordance with ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations”. The agency relationship between the Company and Sino-China and its branches is governed by a series of contractual arrangements pursuant to which the Company has substantial control over Sino-China. Management makes ongoing reassessments of whether the Company remains the primary beneficiary of Sino-China. As mentioned elsewhere in this report, due to the worsening market conditions in the shipping industry, Sino-China’s shipping agency business suffered a significant decrease in revenue due to a reduced number of ships served. As a result, the Company has temporarily suspended this business. Sino-China is also providing services in other related business segments of the Company.

The carrying amount and classification of Sino-China’s assets and liabilities included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets were as follows:

	September 30,		June 30,
	2017		2017

Total current assets	$	9,504,400	$	9,327,990
Total assets		9,646,254		9,472,651
Total current liabilities		13,491		4,517
Total liabilities		13,491		4,517

F-6

(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We follow the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 — Observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s assumptions based on the best available information.

The carrying value of accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

(d) Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, fair value of stock based compensation, cost of revenues, allowance for doubtful accounts, deferred income taxes, and the useful lives of property and equipment. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

(e) Translation of Foreign Currency

The accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including Sino-China and each of its branches are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”) while its subsidiaries in the PRC, including Sino-China, report their financial positions and results of operations in Renminbi (“RMB”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in USD. Foreign currency transactions are translated into USD using the fixed exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Generally, foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company translates the foreign currency financial statements of Sino-China, Sino-Global Shipping Australia, Sino-Global Shipping Hong Kong, Sino-Global Shipping Canada, Trans Pacific Beijing and Trans Pacific Shanghai in accordance with ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Matters”. Assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the balance sheet dates and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of equity of the Company, and also included in non-controlling interests.

The exchange rates as of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017 and for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

	September 30,		June 30,		Three months ended September 30,
	2017		2017		2017		2016
Foreign currency	Balance Sheet		Balance Sheet		Profits/Loss		Profits/Loss
RMB:1USD		6.6549		6.7806		6.6704		6.6668
AUD:1USD		1.2764		1.3028		1.2669		1.3194
HKD:1USD		7.8115		7.8059		7.8147		7.7565
CAD:1USD		1.2468		1.2982		1.2537		1.3045

F-7

(f) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and other highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions mainly in the PRC, Australia, Hong Kong, Canada and the U.S. As of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, cash balances of $6,628,679 and $6,246,337, respectively, were maintained at financial institutions in the PRC, which were not insured by any of the Chinese authorities. As of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, cash balance of $1,257,246 and $2,462,792, respectively, were maintained at U.S. financial institutions, and were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs subject to certain limitations.

(g) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are presented at net realizable value. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts and for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual receivable balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balances, customers’ historical payment history, their current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Receivables are considered past due after 365 days. Accounts Receivable are written off against the allowances only after exhaustive collection efforts.

(h) Property and Equipment, net

Net property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost comprises the asset’s purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings	20 years
Motor vehicles	5-10 years
Furniture and office equipment	3-5 years

The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired by the Company when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset are less than the asset’s carrying value. If impairment is identified, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved or based on independent appraisals. Management has determined that there were no impairments as of the balance sheet dates.

(i) Revenue Recognition

●

Revenues from shipping agency services are recognized upon completion of services, which coincides with the date of departure of the relevant vessel from port. Advance payments and deposits received from customers prior to the provision of services and recognition of the related revenues are presented as advances from customers.

●

Revenues from shipping and chartering services are recognized upon performance of services as stipulated in the underlying contracts.

●

Revenues from inland transportation management services are recognized when commodities are being released from the customers’ warehouse.

●

Revenues from ship management services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

●

Revenues from freight logistics services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

●

Revenues from container trucking services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

(j) Taxation

Because the Company and its subsidiaries and Sino-China are incorporated in different jurisdictions, they file separate income tax returns. The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with US GAAP. Deferred taxes, if any, are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the asset will not be utilized in the future.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

Income tax returns for the years prior to 2014 are no longer subject to examination by U.S. tax authorities.

PRC Enterprise Income Tax

PRC enterprise income tax is calculated based on taxable income determined under the PRC Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“PRC GAAP”) at 25%. Sino-China and Trans Pacific are registered in PRC and governed by the Enterprise Income Tax Laws of the PRC.

PRC Business Tax and Surcharges

Revenues from services provided by the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and affiliates, including Sino-China and Trans Pacific are subject to the PRC business tax of 5%. Business tax and surcharges are paid on gross revenues generated minus the costs of services which are paid on behalf of the customers.

Enterprises or individuals who sell commodities, engage in services or selling of goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax (“VAT”) in accordance with PRC laws. All of the Company’s revenue generated in the PRC are subject to a VAT on the gross sales price. The VAT rates are 6% and 11%, depending on the type of services provided. The Company is entitled to a deduction or offset for VAT paid on the services rendered by the vendors against the VAT when the Company engage in services.

In addition, under PRC regulations, the Company’s PRC subsidiaries and affiliates are required to pay city construction taxes (7%) and education surcharges (3%) based on calculated business tax payments.

The Company’s PRC subsidiaries and affiliates report revenues net of PRC’s VAT, business tax and surcharges for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

(k) Earnings (loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to holders of common shares of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares of the Company outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares of the Company were exercised or converted into common shares of the Company. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if their effects would be anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the basic average shares outstanding and diluted average shares of the Company outstanding were not the same because the effect of potential shares of common stock of the Company was dilutive since the exercise prices for options were lower than the average market price for the related periods. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, a total of 52,090 unexercised options were dilutive and were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, no unexercised warrants and options were dilutive.

(l) Comprehensive Income (loss)

The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income (loss) and its component in financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources.

(m) Stock-based Compensation

Valuations are based upon highly subjective assumptions about the future, including stock price volatility and exercise patterns. The fair value of share-based payment awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee terminations. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

(n) Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s business, financial position and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies or interpretations with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. Moreover, the Company’s ability to grow its business and maintain its profitability could be negatively affected by the nature and extent of services provided to its major customers, Tianjin Zhiyuan Investment Group Co., Ltd. (the “Zhiyuan Investment Group”) and Tengda Northwest Ferroalloy Co., Ltd. (“Tengda Northwest”).

(o) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition: In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (ASU 2014-09), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU 2014-09 (full retrospective method); or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional unaudited condensed as defined per ASU 2014-09 (modified retrospective method). The Company is currently assessing the impact to its unaudited condensed financial statements, and have not yet selected a transition approach.

Leases: In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-2”), which provides guidance on lease amendments to the FASB Accounting Standard Codification. This ASU will be effective for us beginning in May 1, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-2 on unaudited condensed financial statements.

Statement of Cash Flows: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): The amendments in this Update apply to all entities, including both business entities and not-for-profit entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The amendments in this Update provide guidance on the following eight specific cash flow issues. The amendments are an improvement to GAAP because they provide guidance for each of the eight issues, thereby reducing the current and potential future diversity in practice described above. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

Business Combination: In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01), which revises the definition of a business and provides new guidance in evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. This guidance will be effective for us in the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those periods on a prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation: In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock compensation (Topic 718): Scope of modification accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”). The purpose of the amendment is to clarify which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. For all entities that offer share based payment awards, ASU 2017-09 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2017-09 on its unaudited condensed financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation: In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260)”, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed financial statements.

Revenue Recognition and Leases: In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Leases (Topic 842). The main objective of this pronouncement is to clarify the effective date of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 and ASC Topic 842 and the definition of public business entity as stipulated in ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2016-02. ASU 2014-09 provides that a public business entity and certain other specified entities adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities are required to adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. ASU 2016-12 requires that “a public business entity and certain other specified entities adopt ASC Topic 842 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. All other entities are required to adopt ASC Topic 842 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020”. ASU 2017-13 clarifies that the SEC would not object to certain public business entities electing to use the non-public business entities effective dates for applying ASC 606 and ASC 842. ASU 2017-13, however, limits such election to certain public business entities that “otherwise would not meet the definition of a public business entity except for a requirement to include or inclusion of its financial statements or financial information in another entity’s filings with the SEC”. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-13 to have any material impact on its financial positions and results of operations or cash flows.

Except for the ASU’s above, any other ASU’s not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

The Company’s operations in the U.S. for the federal purpose have incurred a cumulative net operating loss (“NOL”) of approximately $5,808,000 as of September 30, 2017, which may reduce federal future taxable income. For the period ended September 30, 2017, approximately $396,000 of NOL was utilized.

The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and reduces the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent it believes a portion will not be realized. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of the deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience, expectation of future income, the carry forward periods available for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors. Part of the Company’s traditional business, such as shipping agency services and shipping and chartering services, is temporarily suspended. Management has provided an allowance against the deferred tax assets balance as of September 30, 2017. The net decrease in the valuation allowance for the year ended September 30, 2017 was $59,100 and the net decrease in the valuation allowance for the same period of 2016 was $174,000.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.

Overview

First Quarter 2018 Highlights

Sales in the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $3,435,609, or 176.7%, over the comparable period in 2016. The revenue generated from the U.S. increased from $1,807,113 in the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $2,352,163 in the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was mainly due to:

●

According to our strategic plan in fiscal year 2017, we set our target to provide inland container trucking services and extend to other logistics services between the United States and China, and our new innovative profit model is to use the internet platform to perform the seamless connection for these kinds of services.

●

The Company’s subsidiary, Trans Pacific Shanghai, began providing container trucking services in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. In addition to the launch of our full-service logistics platform, Trans Pacific Shanghai signed a service agreement with Shanghai International Port (Group) Co. Ltd. to provide freight logistics services and container trucking services to end users, resulting in a significant increase in the subsidiary’s revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016.

●

In connection with the joint agreements signed with Sinotrans Guangxi Company and COSCO Shipping Lines Co., Ltd (Beijing) (formerly known as COSFRE Beijing) in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company has taken a leading position to finish a joint trial project with these two state-owned companies during first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The project involves a shift from the current bulk cargo transportation model to a containerized model. The Company has started a trial for the delivery of sulphur by containers from Long Beach, California, in the U.S., to Fangcheng Port, Guangxi, PRC and ultimately to the warehouse of the customer. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, approximately $0.50 million in service revenue was recognized under this business model and was included in the freight logistics services segment. This trial has laid a strong foundation for the Company to provide bulk cargo transport via containerized model for high volume cargo export from the U.S. to China.

●

During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company signed a service agreement with a Chinese trading company in the U.S. to complete a trial involving services on supply chain logistics from a factory in China to a warehouse in the U.S. This also established a strong basis for the Company to provide logistics services within the supply chain for cross-border electronic commerce from China to the U.S. in the future.

Other First Quarter 2018 Highlights:

●

On September 11, 2017, the Company established a wholly foreign owned enterprise (WFOE) in Ningbo City, China, named Ningbo Saimeinuo Supply Chain Management Co. Ltd. (Ningbo), which is owned by Sino-Global Shipping New York Inc. The new company’s business scope includes supply chain management. The purpose of establishing this WFOE was to obtain the government support in Ningbo in order to help the Company find a feasible profit model in assisting with cross-border e-commerce enterprises in Ningbo and providing logistics services in the U.S. over the whole supply chain from China to the U.S. Ningbo is one of fifteen pilot cities appointed by the Chinese Commerce Department for e-commerce model. The Chinese Commerce Department also invested funds in these fifteen pilot cities. We expect to promote our services over the supply chain to cross-border e-commerce companies in all fifteen pilot cities in China supported by Chinese government.

Fiscal Year 2018 Trends

In fiscal year 2018, we will continue in accordance with the direction of our development in the prior year, which includes focusing on developing business to increase revenue and cash flow in the United States; continuing to develop short-haul trucking business in the U.S.; and identify our strategic target on our internet platform. We finished the basic layout of the short-haul trucking business and internet platform in fiscal year 2017 and we will continue to increase business for short-haul trucking in the United States, and increase business in supply chain logistics services in the United States.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we had a leading position to finish a trial of the joint project with COSC Shipping Lines Co., Ltd (Beijing) and Sinotrans Guangxi Company in connection with the changing of the bulk cargo model to a containerized model to transport Sulphur from the U.S. to China. The Company and the both state-owned enterprises share the same viewpoint: changing the current transport model from bulk cargo to a containerized model is in conformity with the overall trend in connection with supply chain logistics for products exported from the U.S. to China. As the empty container rate shipped by COSCO Shipping Lines Co., Ltd. from the U.S. to China reaches 85%, increasing the bulk cargo containerized transportation model will be our common goal. We will also receive full support by COSCO Shipping Lines Co., Ltd granting us the best discounted on ocean shipping. Currently, the bulk cargo exported from the U.S. to China includes not only petroleum by-product, such as Sulphur, but also many agricultural products and subsidiary agricultural products including soybeans, alfalfa, etc.

With the establishment of our subsidiary in Ningbo and the support of the Ningbo local government, we are confident that we will get through the supply chain logistics services in the United States for cross-border e-commerce in China. The local government in Ningbo has introduced us to local e-commerce enterprises to have broad communication with them. We will try to find out the best models to provide services in the United States to supply chain logistics for products imported from China to the United States by those e-commerce enterprises.

Overall, in fiscal year 2018, we will continue developing the business which we operated in last year, and we will also focus on the bulk cargo containerized model in connection with those products exported from the U.S. to China, as well as developing services models in the U.S. for supply chain logistics for cross-border e-commerce of products imported from China to the U.S.

Revenues

(1) Revenues from Inland Transportation Management Services

In September 2013, the Company executed an inland transportation management service contract with Zhiyuan Investment Group, a related party, whereby the Company agreed to provide certain solutions to help control the potential loss of commodities during the transportation process. The Company also began providing inland transportation management services to a third-party customer, Tengda Northwest, following the quarter ended September 2014. The fluctuation in revenue from this segment is due to the change in the quantities of commodities transported by both Zhiyuan Investment Group and Tengda Northwest.

For Tengda Northwest, the service fee charge was RMB 32 per ton. For Zhiyuan Investment Group, the service fee charge was RMB 38 per ton.

Revenue from the inland transportation management services segment decreased approximately $67,369 from $1,485,735 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $1,418,466 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Revenue from related party customers decreased $292,475 from $857,635 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $565,160 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 since the transported quantities decreased from 150,465 tons to 100,056 tons. Revenue from third parties customers increased $225,206 from $628,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $853,306 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 since the transported quantities increased from 133,828 tons to 177,183 tons for the period indicated accordingly.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, gross profit from inland transportation management services amounted to $1,236,315 and $1,381,734, respectively.

Overall gross margins for this segment decreased to 87.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 93.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease of gross margins in the current is due to the change of client mix with different service fee per ton. However, the decrease was not significant between the two periods.

(2) Revenues from Freight Logistics Services

Since we formed our new subsidiary, Sino-Global Shipping LA, Inc., in January 2016, we began to provide freight logistics services, including cargo forwarding and truck transportation services. Since the revenue increased significantly for providing such services from period to period, the Company has presented the related revenue as a separated business segment since the first quarter of 2017 fiscal year.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the portion of revenues generated from freight logistics services has increased significantly. This was mainly due to approximately $2.69 million in revenue generated by one of our subsidiaries, Trans Pacific Shanghai. for providing related services to two customers. In addition, we started delivery of sulphur from Long Beach, California, in the U.S., to Fangcheng Port, Guangxi, and other PRC regions, and ultimately to the warehouse of the customer through our New York subsidiary. Approximately $0.50 million revenue was generated and included in this segment during the quarter.

We also developed more case by case clients in the U.S region. Approximately $0.22 million was generated from Rich Trading Co., Ltd. by our New York subsidiary and approximately $0.09 million was generated by our joint venture company ACH Center to various local regional customers. Meanwhile, we have increased orders from our client. For example, approximately $2.5 million of revenue was generated from BAO-NYK Shipping PTE. Ltd. during the current period as compared to less than $2,000 in the corresponding period in 2016. The gross margin decreased to 10.5% from 55.9% mainly due to the changing mix of services provided between the current and the corresponding period in 2016. Every single business of freight logistics services has a unique gross margin according to different service scope. Usually a business in full-scale scope has a higher gross margin, and a business with fragmented scope has a lower gross margin. Our fragmented scope business increased significantly, such as revenue from BAO-NYK Shipping PTE. Ltd., and contributed a much higher portion of revenue in this sector than full-scale business compared to prior period. The revenue generated from freight logistics services was $3,508,704, and the related gross profit was $368,112 for the three months ended September 30, 2017.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the revenue generated from freight logistics services was $458,667, and the related gross profit was $256,329.

(3) Revenues from Container Trucking Services

Since we completed our web-based short distance container truck service platform in December 2016, we began generating revenue from short distance trucking and containers services through the service platform and presented this as a new segment, “Container Trucking Services,” beginning in the second quarter of 2017. Since the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company has provided container trucking services in the PRC regions and began to provide related services in the U.S. regions starting from the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. This new business segment is based on a modified and improved version of our freight logistics services business segment.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, revenue generated from container trucking services was $452,841 and the related gross profit was $109,665.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Total operating costs and expenses increased by $3,220,179 or 261.5%, from $1,231,562 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $4,451,741 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. This increase was primarily due to the increase in cost of revenues as discussed below, partially offset by the decrease in general and administrative expenses and selling expenses.

Costs of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $3,665,918 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $3,359,579, or 1096.7%, as compared to $306,339 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The overall cost of revenues as a percentage of our revenues increased from 15.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2016, to 68.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in the overall costs of revenues in percentage terms for the three months ended September 30, 2017 stemmed from the majority of the revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2017 coming from the less profitable freight logistics services segment rather than the more profitable inland transportation management services segment.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, 65% of total revenue was from the freight logistics services segment with a gross profit margin of 10% and 26% of total revenue was from the inland transportation management services segment with a gross profit margin of 87%. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, 24% of total revenue was from the freight logistics services segment with a gross profit margin of 56% and 76% of total revenue was from the inland transportation management service segment with a gross profit margin of 93%. The significant decrease of gross profit margin of the freight logistics services segment is due to a change in the client mix that caused revenue from the fragmented scope to contribute a much larger portion of total revenue under the freight logistics services segment in the current period compared to the prior period.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, office rent, office expenses, regulatory filing and listing fees, amortization of stock-based compensation, legal, accounting and other professional service fees. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had $763,357 of expenses, as compared to $859,914 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $96,557, or 11.2%. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease of stock-based compensation, partially offset by a decrease in recovery on allowance for doubtful accounts, and an increase in consulting fees, legal fees and labor expenses. As a result of the reduction in general and administrative expenses and the increase in revenues, our general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenue, decreased from 44.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to 14.6% for the corresponding period in 2017.

Selling Expenses

The Company’s selling expenses consist primarily of business development costs and salaries and commissions for our operating staff at the ports at which we provide services. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had $22,466 of selling expenses as compared to $65,309 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $42,843, or 65.6%. The decrease was mainly attributable to the fact that the Company clarified responsibilities for the sales personnel and centralized major sales activities functions in our headquarters in order to decrease selling expenses incurred in different subsidiaries in the three months ended September 30, 2016. As a percentage of revenue, our selling expenses decreased from 3.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2016, to 0.4% for the corresponding period in 2017.

Operating Income

The Company had an operating income of $928,270 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to an operating income of $712,840 for the comparable period ended September 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to increased revenue generated from freight logistics services and container trucking services, and the significant decline in general and administrative expenses and selling expenses discussed above.

Financial Income (Expense), Net

The Company’s net financial income was $296,429 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to net financial expense of $3,434 for the same period of 2016. We have operations in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Hong Kong and the PRC, and our financial income (expenses) for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 mainly reflects the foreign currency transaction income or loss expressed in U.S. Dollars.

The Company’s income tax expense was $296,429 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to an income tax expense of $71,621 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

We finance our ongoing operating activities primarily by using funds from our operations. We routinely monitor current and expected operational requirements to evaluate the use of available funding sources. In assessing liquidity, management monitors and analyzes the Company’s cash on-hand, its ability to generate sufficient revenue sources in the future and the Company’s operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company plans to fund continuing operations through identifying new prospective joint ventures and strategic alliance opportunities for new revenue sources, and by reducing costs to improve profitability and replenish working capital. Considering our existing working capital position and our ability to access other funding sources, management believes that the foregoing measures will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to meet its future liquidity and capital obligations.

Operating Activities

Our net cash used in operating activities was $820,489 for three months ended September 30, 2017, including net income of $0.72 million from increased revenue generated from freight logistics services and the container trucking platform and decreased general and administrative expenses and sales expenses. In the current period, accounts receivable increased by $1.71 million and the amount due from related parties increased $0.57 million because of increased revenue for the period. On the other hand, accounts payable increased by $0.66 million mainly due to cost of revenue increased as sulphur business started. Cash outflows of operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2017 reflect the above mentioned major factors.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,524,374 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, which included our operating income of $0.64 million due to increased revenue generated from inland transportation management services and freight logistics services with strong margin contribution, and the declined general and administrative expenses. In addition, the accounts receivable decreased by $1.66 million because we strengthened our cash collection efforts and received payment of $1.8 million from Tengda Northwest, our major third-party customer of inland transportation management services, and due from related parties decreased by $0.5 million because we collected $1.4 million from our related party customer, Zhiyuan. However, the advances to suppliers increased by $1.42 million because we prepaid freight fees of RMB 20.18 million (USD$3.0 million) based on our Memorandum of Understanding with Singapore Metals & Minerals Pte Ltd. and Galasi Jernsih Sdn BHD (See Note 3). The Company’s cash inflows from operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2016 reflected the above mentioned factors.

Investing Activities

The Company’s net cash used in investing activities was $5,077 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $nil for the same period of 2016. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we purchased electronic equipment.

Financing Activities

The Company’s net cash derived from financing activities was $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions on the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period. We continually evaluate these judgments and estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable.

There have been no material changes during the three months ended September 30, 2017 in our accounting policies from those previously disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017.

The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgments and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors that should be considered when reviewing our financial statements. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

●

Revenues from shipping and chartering services are recognized upon performance of services as stipulated in the underlying contracts.

●

Revenues from inland transportation management services are recognized when commodities are being released from the customer’s warehouse.

●

Revenues from ship management services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

●

Revenues from freight logistics services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

●

Revenues from container trucking platform services are recognized when the related contractual services are rendered.

Basis of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent, its subsidiaries and its affiliates. All inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Sino-Global Shipping Agency Ltd. (“Sino-China”) is considered to be a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Because of the contractual arrangements, the Company had a pecuniary interest in Sino-China that requires consolidation of our and Sino-China’s financial statements. The accounts of Sino-China are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, “Consolidation”. As a VIE, Sino-China’s revenues are included in our total revenues, its net loss from operations is consolidated with our net income (loss) before non-controlling interest. Our non-controlling interest in its net loss is then subtracted to calculate the net income attributable to the Company. The Company temporarily suspended its business with Sino-China in June 2014, therefore, there is no net income generated by Sino-China in the present.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, fair value of stock based compensation, cost of revenues, allowance for doubtful accounts, deferred income taxes, and the useful lives of property and equipment. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recognized at net realizable value. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments in the relevant time period. Management reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and record general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, we consider many factors, including the age of the balance, the customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Receivables are considered past due after 365 days. Accounts are written off against the allowance only after exhaustive collection efforts.

Stock-based Compensation

Valuations are based upon highly subjective assumptions about the future, including stock price volatility and exercise patterns. The fair value of share-based payment awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise price and employee terminations. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

Taxation

Because the Company and its subsidiaries and Sino-China are incorporated in different jurisdictions, they file separate income tax returns. The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). Deferred taxes, if any, are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the asset will not be utilized in the future.

Income tax returns for the years prior to 2014 are no longer subject to examination by U.S. tax authorities. Income tax returns for the years prior to 2012 are no longer subject to examination by PRC authorities.

PRC Enterprise Income Tax

PRC Business Tax and Surcharges

The Company’s PRC subsidiaries and affiliates report revenues net of PRC’s VAT, business tax and surcharges for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholders’ equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serve as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of its management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing evaluation, Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were not effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to the management, including Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The assessment stemmed from the following material weaknesses –

	●	Lack of segregation of duties for accounting personnel who prepared and reviewed the journal entries;

	●	Lack of resources with technical competency to review and record non-routine or complex transactions; and

	●	Lack of a full time U.S. GAAP personnel in the accounting department to monitor the recording of the transactions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
