NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of wholly owned subsidiaries, VIE and subsidiaries of the VIE over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entity for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended October 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2023.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC that have had a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, and operating results.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Significant estimates during the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 include the valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and the valuation of stock-based compensation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 820 for fair value measurements 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-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date. |
● | Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities 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. |

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)
● | Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information. |
Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Short-term investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are measured at fair value on an ongoing basis.
The Company did not have any short-term investment at April 30, 2023.
The following table provides these assets carried at fair value, measured as of October 31, 2022:

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in banks, savings, deposit accounts, and all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts.
At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:

Cash in China may not be freely transferable out of the PRC because of exchange control regulations or other reasons.
For purposes of the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company had
Restricted Cash
In its capacity as an insurance broker, occasionally, the Company collects premiums from certain insureds and remits the premiums to the appropriate insurance carriers. Unremitted insurance premiums are held in a fiduciary capacity bank account until disbursed by the Company to the respective insurance carriers. The unremitted funds are held in a bank for a short period of time. In addition, the Company as an insurance broker is required to reserve 10% of its registered capital in cash held in an escrow bank account pursuant to the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CIRC”) rules and regulations. As of April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, restricted cash amounted to $

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Concentration of Credit Risk and Uncertainties (continued)
The Company is operating in a rapidly changing environment so the extent to which COVID-19 impacts its business, operations and financial results from this point forward will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company cannot accurately predict. Those factors include the following: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic.
A portion of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. Balances at state-owned banks within the PRC are covered by insurance up to RMB
Currently, the Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in China, and by the general state of China’s economy. The Company’s operations in China are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales to customers whose ability to pay are dependent upon the prevailing industry economics; however, concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to short-term payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are investments in wealth management products with underlying bonds offered by a private entity. The investments can be redeemed upon notice and their carrying values approximate their fair values. The income (loss) from sale of any investments and fair value change are recognized in the statement of operations.
The Company had short-term investments of $
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.
At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, accounts receivable consisted of the following:

Reserve for Policy Cancellations
Managements establishes the policy cancellation reserve based on historical and current data on cancellations.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
● | Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer |
● | Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Step 3: Determine the transaction price |
● | Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation |
In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised goods or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” goods or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:
● | The customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the goods or service is capable of being distinct). |
● | The entity’s promise to transfer the goods or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the goods or service is distinct within the context of the contract). |
If a goods or service is not distinct, the goods or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

The distinct performance obligation is policy placement services. Billing is controlled by the insurance carriers, therefore, the data necessary to reasonably determine the revenue amounts is made available to the Company by the insurance carriers on a monthly basis. Insurance brokerage services are considered to be rendered and completed, and revenue is recognized, at the time an insurance policy becomes effective, that is, when the signed insurance policy is in place and the premium is collected from the insured, which is confirmed by the insurance carriers with their monthly commissions statements submitted to the Company. The Company has met all the criteria of revenue recognition when the premiums are collected by it or the respective insurance carriers and not before, because collectability is not ensured until receipt of the premium. Accordingly, the Company does not accrue any commission prior to the receipt of the related premiums. Generally, at the time when the insurance policy is signed, it is difficult for us to assess the insured’s ability and intention to pay the premium due on the policy. Therefore, it is not possible for us to estimate if we will collect substantially all of the commission to which we will be entitled in exchange for our insurance brokerage services. For this reason we recognize revenue when the premiums are either collected by us or by the respective insurance carriers and not before, due to the specific practice in the industry.
No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for its brokerage business, as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that cancellations of policies rarely occur. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. Actual commission adjustments in connection with the cancellations of policies were
Occasionally, certain policyholders or insureds might request the Company to assist them for claim process on their behalf with the insurance carriers. The Company generally will spend approximately an hour on the phone with the insurance carriers if such assistance is requested by the insured. Based on historical experience, claim service calls and related labor costs have been minimal. The Company spent approximately
The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting standards for non-employee and employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, the fair value of stock issued is used to measure the fair value of services received by the Company. For non-employee stock-based awards, fair value is measured based on the value of the Company’s stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been established. The fair value of the equity instrument is calculated and then recognized as compensation expense over the requisite performance period. For employee stock-based awards, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis, as specified in the stock grant, over the requisite service period for the award.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction
The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the parent company, TRX, and TRX HK, is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of TRX BJ, TRX ZJ, and TRX ZJ’s subsidiaries, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the entities whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.
All of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating entities. The Company does not enter into any material transactions in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022 were translated at RMB
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for such contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Per Share Data
ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary stock were exercised or converted into ordinary stock or resulted in the issuance of ordinary stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
Basic net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock, ordinary stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. For the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, potentially dilutive ordinary shares consisted of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of ordinary stock warrants (using the treasury stock method). Ordinary stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact.

Segment Reporting
ASC 280 “Segment reporting” establishes standards for reporting information on operating segments in interim and annual financial statements. The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and chairman of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. The Company has determined that it has

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”). The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual period beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Statutory Reserve and Restricted Net Assets
The Company’s PRC subsidiary, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company. The payment of dividends by entities organized in China is subject to limitations, procedures and formalities. Regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China.
The Company is required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, comprising the statutory surplus reserve and the discretionary surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the statutory surplus reserve are required to be at least 10% of the after-tax net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s registered capital. Appropriations to the discretionary surplus reserve are made at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. The statutory reserve may be applied against prior year losses, if any, and may be used for general business expansion and production or increase in registered capital, but are not distributable as cash dividends.
Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the Company’s PRC subsidiary, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries from transferring a portion of their net assets, equivalent to their statutory reserves and their share capital, to the Company’s shareholders in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Only PRC entities’ accumulated profits may be distributed as dividends to the Company’s shareholders without the consent of a third party.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial results and statements of TIAN RUIXIANG Holdings Ltd (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) for the six (6) months ended April 30, 2023, furnished and included with this report as Exhibit 99.1
Overview
We are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. We are not a Chinese operating company. As a holding company with no material operations of our own, we conduct our operations through the VIE established in the People’s Republic of China. We do not have any equity ownership of the VIE, instead, we control and receive the economic benefits of the VIE’s business operations through the VIE Agreements, which are used to provide contractual exposure to foreign investment in China-based companies where Chinese law prohibits direct foreign investment in the Chinese operating companies. Pursuant to the VIE Agreements, which are designed so that the operations of the VIE are solely for the benefit of WFOE and ultimately, the Company, under U.S. GAAP, is deemed to have a controlling financial interest in, and be the primary beneficiary of the VIE for accounting purposes only and must consolidate the VIE because we met the conditions under U.S. GAAP. However, the VIE Agreements have not been tested in a court of law and may not be effective in providing control over the VIE. We are, therefore, subject to risks due to the uncertainty of the interpretation and application of the laws and regulations of the PRC regarding the VIE and the VIE structure.
The VIE, TRX ZJ, and its PRC subsidiaries, operate an insurance brokerage business in China, and distribute a wide range of insurance products, which are categorized into two major groups: (1) property and casualty insurance, such as commercial property insurance, guarantee insurance, liability insurance, automobile insurance, and accidental insurance; and (2) other insurances, such as health insurance, life insurance, and miscellaneous insurances. TRX ZJ acts on behalf of its customers seeking insurance coverage from insurance companies and take pride in its premium customer service.
As an insurance broker, TRX ZJ does not assume underwriting risks; it distributes insurance products underwritten by insurance companies operating in China to its individual or institutional customers. TRX ZJ is compensated for its services by commissions paid by insurance companies, typically based on a percentage of the premium paid by the insured. Commission and fee rates generally depend on the type of insurance products, the particular insurance company and the region in which the products are sold. As of the date of this report, TRX ZJ has relationships with over 40 insurance companies in the PRC, and therefore is able to offer a variety of insurance products to its customers.
For the six months ended April 30, 2023, 85.4% of TRX ZJ’s total revenue was attributed to top five insurance company partners, and three insurance companies each accounted for more than 10% of its total revenue: Ping An Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Shaoxing Branch, China Life Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Hefei Branch, and Yong An Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Hangzhou Branch accounted for 36.2%, 23.8% and 11.9%, respectively.
For the six months ended April 30, 2022, 49.1% of TRX ZJ’s total revenue was attributed to top five insurance company partners, and three insurance companies each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue: Ping An Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Haozhou Branch, Yong An Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Hangzhou Branch, and Ping An Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Hangzhou Branch, accounted for 14.3%, 11.2% and 10.9%, respectively.
TRX ZJ operates 8 branches as of the date of this report. For the six months ended April 30, 2023, TRX ZJ had 1,308 institutional customers and 167 individual customers.
Revenue Category
As a broker of insurance products, TRX ZJ derives its revenue from commissions paid by insurance carriers, typically calculated as a percentage of premiums paid by insureds to the insurance carriers in China. TRX ZJ reports revenue net of PRC’s VAT for all the periods presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The following table illustrates the breakdown of TRX ZJ’s commissions by insurance products for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Significant estimates during the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 include the valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and the valuation of stock-based compensation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
● | Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer |
● | Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Step 3: Determine the transaction price |
● | Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract |
● | Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation |
In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised goods or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” goods or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:
● | The customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the goods or service is capable of being distinct). |
● | The entity’s promise to transfer the goods or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the goods or service is distinct within the context of the contract). |
If a goods or service is not distinct, the goods or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
The Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with customers of provisions of insurance brokerage services. The Company does not provide any insurance agent services. The distinct performance obligation is policy placement services. Billing is controlled by the insurance carriers, therefore, the data necessary to reasonably determine the revenue amounts is made available to the Company by the insurance carriers on a monthly basis. Insurance brokerage services are considered to be rendered and completed, and revenue is recognized, at the time an insurance policy becomes effective, that is, when the signed insurance policy is in place and the premium is collected from the insured, which is confirmed by the insurance carriers with their monthly commissions statements submitted to the Company. The Company has met all the criteria of revenue recognition when the premiums are collected by it or the respective insurance carriers and not before, because collectability is not ensured until receipt of the premium. Accordingly, the Company does not accrue any commission prior to the receipt of the related premiums. Generally, at the time when the insurance policy is signed, it is difficult for us to assess the insured’s ability and intention to pay the premium due on the policy. Therefore, it is not possible for us to estimate if we will collect substantially all of the commission to which we will be entitled in exchange for our insurance brokerage services. For this reason we recognize revenue when the premiums are either collected by us or by the respective insurance carriers and not before, due to the specific practice in the industry.
No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for brokerage business, as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that the cancellations of policies rarely occur. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. Actual commission adjustments in connection with the cancellations of policies were 0.6% and 0.8% of the total commission revenue for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Occasionally, certain policyholders or insureds might request the Company to assist them for claim process on their behalf with the insurance carriers. The Company generally will spend approximately an hour on the phone with the insurance carriers if such assistance is requested by the insured. Based on historical experience, claim service calls and related labor costs have been minimal. The Company spent approximately 0 and 9 hours in connection with the claim process services provided to the insureds for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Based on historical data, the transaction price does not include any element of consideration that is variable or contingent on the outcome of future events, such as policy cancellations, lapses, and volume of business or claims experience.
The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting standards for non-employee and employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, the fair value of stock issued is used to measure the fair value of services received by the Company. For non-employee stock-based awards, fair value is measured based on the value of the Company’s stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been established. The fair value of the equity instrument is calculated and then recognized as compensation expense over the requisite performance period. For employee stock-based awards, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis, as specified in the stock grant, over the requisite service period for the award.
Commitment and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for such contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

Revenue
As a broker of insurance products, TRX ZJ derives revenue from commissions paid by insurance carriers, typically calculated as a percentage of premiums paid by insureds to the insurance carriers in China.
Revenue for the six months ended April 30, 2023 totaled $724,859, a decrease of $220,786, or 23.3%, compared with $945,645 for the six months ended April 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in commission from accidental insurance of approximately $232,000 and a decrease in commission from automobile insurance of approximately $118,000, resulting from the loss of insurance company partners, and a decrease in commission from other miscellaneous insurances of $26,000, offset by an increase in commission from guarantee insurance of approximately $155,000. TRX ZJ expects that its revenue will increase in the near future since it plans to expand its business.
Operating Expenses
During the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, operating expenses included selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses.
Selling and Marketing
Selling and marketing expenses amounted to $1,564,353 for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared to $1,113,896 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, an increase of $450,457, or 40.4%. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in the stock-based compensation of approximately $460,000 which reflected the value of our Ordinary Shares granted to our sales professionals, offset by a decrease in other miscellaneous items of approximately $9,000.
Our selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended April 30, 2023 increased to 215.8% from 117.8% for the six months ended April 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in our revenue and an increase in our selling and marketing expenses. We expect that our selling and marketing expenses will increase in the near future since we plan to increase our marketing activities and launch aggressive advertising campaigns.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses amounted to $1,088,492 for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared to $3,712,173 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, a decrease of $2,623,681, or 70.7%.

● | Professional fees primarily consisted of legal fee, audit fee, consulting fee, investor relations service charge and other fees. For the six months ended April 30, 2023, professional fees decreased by $195,559, or 21.0%, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in the stock-based consulting fee of approximately $185,000 due to the decrease in consulting service providers, and a decrease in other miscellaneous items of approximately $11,000. We expect that our professional fees will remain in its current level with minimal increase in the near future. |
● | For the six months ended April 30, 2023, compensation and related benefits decreased by $2,055,257, or 87.6%, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2022. The significant decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the stock-based compensation of approximately $1,796,000 reflecting the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares granted to our management, and a decrease in the management’s compensation and related benefits of approximately $259,000 resulting from our laying off our personnel. We expect that our compensation and related benefits will remain in its current level with minimal increase in the near future. |
● | For the six months ended April 30, 2023, rent and related utilities decreased by $163,586, or 76.8%, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2022. The decrease was mainly due to the decreased monthly rent driven by decreased office space. |
● | For the six months ended April 30, 2023, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premium decreased by $170,785, or 100.0%, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2022. For the six months ended April 30, 2023, we did not incur any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance fee. |
● | Other general and administrative expenses were primarily comprised of office supplies, office decoration, bank service charge, internet service fees and miscellaneous taxes. For the six months ended April 30, 2023, other general and administrative expenses decreased by $38,494, or 74.7%, as compared to the six months ended April 30, 2022, reflecting our efforts at stricter controls on corporate expenditures. |
Loss from Operations
As a result of the foregoing, for the six months ended April 30, 2023, loss from operations amounted to $1,927,986, as compared to $3,880,424 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, resulting in a change of $1,952,438, or 50.3%.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) primarily includes interest income, and miscellaneous expense and income. Other income, net, totaled $461,736 for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared to $398,107 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, an increase of $63,629, or 16.0%, which was attributable to an increase in interest income of approximately $100,000, offset by a decrease in other income of approximately $36,000.
Income Taxes
Income taxes expense was $20,003 for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared to $21,410 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, a decrease of $1,407, or 6.6%. The decrease in income taxes expense was primarily attributable to decrease in taxable income generated by our operating entities.
Net Loss
As a result of the factors described above, our net loss was $1,486,253 for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared to $3,503,727 for the six months ended April 30, 2022, a change of $2,017,474, or 57.6%.
Net Loss Attributable to Non-controlling Interest
On November 7, 2017, TRX ZJ sold a 0.2% equity interest in Hengbang Insurance to two third party individuals. As of April 30, 2023, these two individuals owned in the aggregate 0.2% of the equity interests of Hengbang Insurance, which is not under the Company’s control. The net loss attributable to Non-controlling Interest was $0 and $20 for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Net Loss Attributable to TRX Ordinary Shareholders
The net loss attributable to TRX ordinary shareholders was $1,486,253 or $0.50 per share (basic and diluted) for the six months ended April 30, 2023, as compared with $3,503,707 or $1.42 per share (basic and diluted) for the six months ended April 30, 2022, a change of $2,017,454 or 57.6%.
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of TRX and TRX HK is the U.S. dollar, and the functional currency of TRX BJ, TRX ZJ, and TRX ZJ’s subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The financial statements of our subsidiaries whose functional currency is the RMB are translated to U.S. dollars using period end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, average rate of exchange for revenue and expenses and cash flows, and at historical exchange rates for equity. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the results of operations. As a result of foreign currency translation, which is a non-cash adjustment, we reported a foreign currency translation gain of $1,485,978 and a foreign currency translation loss of $947,912 for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This non-cash gain/loss had the effect of decreasing/increasing our reported comprehensive loss.
Comprehensive Loss
As a result of our foreign currency translation adjustment, we had comprehensive loss of $275 and $4,451,639 for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of approximately $36,656,000 and $695,000, respectively. These funds are kept in financial institutions located in China and Hong Kong.
Under applicable PRC regulations, foreign invested enterprises, or FIEs, in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until the cumulative amount of such reserves reach 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends.
In addition, a majority of our businesses and assets are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts. These currency exchange control procedures imposed by the PRC government authorities may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiary to transfer its net assets to TRX through loans, advances or cash dividends.
The current PRC Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) Law and its implementing rules generally provide that a 10% withholding tax applies to China-sourced income derived by non-resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes unless the jurisdiction of incorporation of such enterprises’ shareholder has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement.

Our working capital increased by $1,091,020 to $34,455,556 at April 30, 2023 from $33,364,536 at October 31, 2022. The increase in working capital was primarily attributable to a significant increase in cash of approximately $35,921,000 mainly due to proceeds from sale of our short-term investments of approximately $27,615,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2023 and collection of note principal and related interest of $7,800,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2023, offset by a significant decrease in short-term investments of approximately $26,180,000 resulting from sale of our short-term investments in the six months ended April 30, 2023, a significant decrease in note receivable of $7,500,000 driven by our collection of note principal in the six months ended April 30, 2023, a decrease in interest receivable of approximately $262,000 resulting from our collection of note related interest in the six months ended April 30, 2023, an increase in salary payable of approximately $218,000, and an increase in due to related parties of approximately $684,000 driven by expenses paid by our related parties on behalf of us in the six months ended April 30, 2023.
Because the exchange rate conversion is different for the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the changes in assets and liabilities reflected on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are not necessarily identical with the comparable changes reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities for the six months ended April 30, 2023 was $761,583, which primarily reflected the non-cash items adjustment mainly consisting of amortization of right-of-use assets of approximately $55,000 and stock-based compensation and service expense of approximately $1,068,000 due to shares granted for services, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities mainly consisting of a decrease in interest receivable of approximately $262,000 000 resulting from our collection of note related interest in the six months ended April 30, 2023, a decrease in other assets of approximately $55,000, an increase in salary payable of approximately $204,000, and an increase in due to related parties of approximately $683,000 driven by expenses paid by our related parties on behalf of us in the six months ended April 30, 2023, offset by an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $60,000, and our consolidated net loss of approximately $1,486,000.
Net cash flow used in operating activities for the six months ended April 30, 2022 was $75,608, which primarily reflected our consolidated net loss of approximately 3,504,000, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities mainly consisting of an increase in interest receivable of approximately $74,000, and a decrease in operating lease liabilities of approximately $107,000, offset by a decrease in account receivable of approximately $222,000 driven by our efforts at collection, a decrease in other assets of approximately $293,000 mainly due to the decrease in prepaid directors and officers’ liability insurance premium of approximately $214,000 resulting from amortization of prepaid premium in the first half of fiscal 2022 and the decrease in prepaid professional fees of approximately $85,000 driven by recognition as expense over the first half of fiscal 2022, and an increase in salary payable of approximately $109,000, and an increase in accrued liabilities and other payables of approximately $182,000, which was mainly attributable an increase in accrued professional service fees of approximately $120,000 driven by increased professional service providers and an increase in other payables of approximately $60,000, and the add-back of non-cash items mainly consisting of amortization of right-of-use assets of approximately $169,000 and stock-based compensation and service expense of approximately $2,589,000.
Net cash flow provided by investing activities was $35,115,075 for the six months ended April 30, 2023 as compared to net cash flow used in investing activities of $2,436 for the six months ended April 30, 2022. During the six months ended April 30, 2023, we received proceeds from note receivable of $7,500,000 and proceeds from sale of short-term investments of approximately $27,615,000. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, we made payment for purchase of property and equipment of approximately $2,000.
There was no financing activity during the six months ended April 30, 2023.
Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $0 for the six months ended April 30, 2022. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, we received proceeds from related parties’ borrowings of approximately $234,000, offset by repayment made for related parties’ borrowings of approximately $234,000.
Our capital requirements for the next twelve months primarily relate to working capital requirements, including salaries, fees related to third parties’ professional services, reduction of accrued liabilities, and the development of business opportunities. These uses of cash will depend on numerous factors including our revenue, and our ability to control costs. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:
● | An increase in working capital requirements to finance our current business; |
● | The use of capital for development of business opportunities; |
● | Addition of personnel as the business grows; and |
● | The cost of being a public company. |
We estimate that our available cash together with our cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:
● | Any obligation under certain guarantee contracts, |
● | Any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets, |
● | Any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in shareholder equity in our statement of financial position, and |
● | Any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us. |
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we are required to disclose pursuant to these regulations. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Our operations are in China. Thus, our revenue and operating results have been impacted by exchange rate fluctuations between RMB and US dollars. For the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, we had unrealized foreign currency translation gain of approximately $1,486,000 and unrealized foreign currency translation loss of approximately $948,000, respectively, because of changes in the exchange rate.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Currently, the Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations have been influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in China, and by the general state of China’s economy. The Company’s operations in China are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Inflation
As of the date of this report, the effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant.

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS TIAN RUIXIANG Holdings Ltd (“TRX” or the “Company”) is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 5, 2019. The Company, through a variable interest entity (“VIE”), Zhejiang Tianruixiang Insurance Broker Co., Ltd. (“TRX ZJ”), operates as a broker to sell insurance products in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”). TRX ZJ was established on January 18, 2010 and formed three subsidiaries in PRC. On March 20, 2019, TRX established a wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong, TRX Hong Kong Investment Limited (“TRX HK”), which is a holding company. On April 30, 2019, TRX HK established a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise in China, Beijing Tianruixiang Management Consulting Co., Ltd. (“TRX BJ” or “WFOE”). On May 20, 2019, TRX BJ entered into a series of contractual arrangements, or VIE agreements with TRX ZJ and the sole equity holder of TRX ZJ, through which the Company obtained control and became the primary beneficiary of TRX ZJ for accounting purpose only under the U.S. GAAP, hereinafter referred to as the Reorganization. As a result, TRX ZJ became the Company’s VIE. On May 20, 2019, the Company completed its reorganization of the entities under the common control of two majority shareholders, Mr. Zhe Wang and Mrs. Sheng Xu, who is Mr. Zhe Wang’s wife, through their 100% controlled entities incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”), and indirectly owned a majority of the equity interests of the Company, its subsidiaries, its VIE and the VIE’s subsidiaries prior to and after the Reorganization. The Company was established as a holding company of TRX BJ. TRX BJ is the primary beneficiary of TRX ZJ for accounting purposes only, and all of these entities are under the common control of the Company’s ultimate controlling shareholders before and after the Reorganization, which resulted in the consolidation of the Company and was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control at carrying value and for accounting purposes, the reorganization was accounted for as a recapitalization. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of TRX and each of the following entities:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Significant Accounting Policies There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC that have had a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, and operating results. Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates during the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 include the valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and the valuation of stock-based compensation. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 820 for fair value measurements 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:
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Short-term investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. The Company did not have any short-term investment at April 30, 2023. The following table provides these assets carried at fair value, measured as of October 31, 2022:
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in banks, savings, deposit accounts, and all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts. At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:
Cash in China may not be freely transferable out of the PRC because of exchange control regulations or other reasons. For purposes of the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022. Restricted Cash In its capacity as an insurance broker, occasionally, the Company collects premiums from certain insureds and remits the premiums to the appropriate insurance carriers. Unremitted insurance premiums are held in a fiduciary capacity bank account until disbursed by the Company to the respective insurance carriers. The unremitted funds are held in a bank for a short period of time. In addition, the Company as an insurance broker is required to reserve 10% of its registered capital in cash held in an escrow bank account pursuant to the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CIRC”) rules and regulations. As of April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, restricted cash amounted to $732,602 and $692,734, respectively. Concentration of Credit Risk and Uncertainties The ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic, reported to have started in December 2019 in China and spread globally, are filled with uncertainty and changing quickly. NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Concentration of Credit Risk and Uncertainties (continued) The Company is operating in a rapidly changing environment so the extent to which COVID-19 impacts its business, operations and financial results from this point forward will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company cannot accurately predict. Those factors include the following: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic. A portion of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. Balances at state-owned banks within the PRC are covered by insurance up to RMB 500,000 (approximately $72,000) per bank. Any balance over RMB 500,000 per bank in PRC will not be covered. At April 30, 2023, cash balances held in the PRC were RMB 199,459,879 (approximately $28,856,000), of which, RMB 198,208,941 (approximately $28,675,000) was not covered by such limited insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. Currently, the Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in China, and by the general state of China’s economy. The Company’s operations in China are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales to customers whose ability to pay are dependent upon the prevailing industry economics; however, concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to short-term payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk. Short-term Investments Short-term investments are investments in wealth management products with underlying bonds offered by a private entity. The investments can be redeemed upon notice and their carrying values approximate their fair values. The income (loss) from sale of any investments and fair value change are recognized in the statement of operations. The Company had short-term investments of $0 and $26,179,662 as of April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, respectively. Income from short term investments for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $429,645 and $293,172, respectively, which was included in interest income on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, accounts receivable consisted of the following:
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Reserve for Policy Cancellations Managements establishes the policy cancellation reserve based on historical and current data on cancellations. No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for our brokerage business as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that the cancellation of policies rarely occurs. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised goods or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” goods or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:
If a goods or service is not distinct, the goods or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Revenue Recognition (continued) The Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with customers of provisions of insurance brokerage services. The Company does not provide any insurance agent services. The distinct performance obligation is policy placement services. Billing is controlled by the insurance carriers, therefore, the data necessary to reasonably determine the revenue amounts is made available to the Company by the insurance carriers on a monthly basis. Insurance brokerage services are considered to be rendered and completed, and revenue is recognized, at the time an insurance policy becomes effective, that is, when the signed insurance policy is in place and the premium is collected from the insured, which is confirmed by the insurance carriers with their monthly commissions statements submitted to the Company. The Company has met all the criteria of revenue recognition when the premiums are collected by it or the respective insurance carriers and not before, because collectability is not ensured until receipt of the premium. Accordingly, the Company does not accrue any commission prior to the receipt of the related premiums. Generally, at the time when the insurance policy is signed, it is difficult for us to assess the insured’s ability and intention to pay the premium due on the policy. Therefore, it is not possible for us to estimate if we will collect substantially all of the commission to which we will be entitled in exchange for our insurance brokerage services. For this reason we recognize revenue when the premiums are either collected by us or by the respective insurance carriers and not before, due to the specific practice in the industry. No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for its brokerage business, as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that cancellations of policies rarely occur. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. Actual commission adjustments in connection with the cancellations of policies were 0.6% and 0.8% of the total commission revenue for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Occasionally, certain policyholders or insureds might request the Company to assist them for claim process on their behalf with the insurance carriers. The Company generally will spend approximately an hour on the phone with the insurance carriers if such assistance is requested by the insured. Based on historical experience, claim service calls and related labor costs have been minimal. The Company spent approximately 0 and 9 hours in connection with the claim process services provided to the insureds for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Based on historical data, the transaction price does not include any element of consideration that is variable or contingent on the outcome of future events, such as policy cancellations, lapses, and volume of business or claims experience. The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers. Stock-based Compensation The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting standards for non-employee and employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, the fair value of stock issued is used to measure the fair value of services received by the Company. For non-employee stock-based awards, fair value is measured based on the value of the Company’s stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been established. The fair value of the equity instrument is calculated and then recognized as compensation expense over the requisite performance period. For employee stock-based awards, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis, as specified in the stock grant, over the requisite service period for the award. NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the parent company, TRX, and TRX HK, is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of TRX BJ, TRX ZJ, and TRX ZJ’s subsidiaries, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the entities whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating entities. The Company does not enter into any material transactions in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. The condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022 were translated at RMB 6.9122 to $1.00 and at RMB 7.3029 to $1.00, respectively. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 were RMB 6.9233 and RMB 6.3721 to $1.00, respectively. Commitments and Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for such contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. Per Share Data ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary stock were exercised or converted into ordinary stock or resulted in the issuance of ordinary stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Basic net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock, ordinary stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. For the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, potentially dilutive ordinary shares consisted of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of ordinary stock warrants (using the treasury stock method). Ordinary stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact. NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Per Share Date (continued) The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:
Segment Reporting ASC 280 “Segment reporting” establishes standards for reporting information on operating segments in interim and annual financial statements. The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and chairman of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. The Company has determined that it has one reportable business segment. During the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, all of the Company’s customers were in the PRC and all revenue was derived from the provision of insurance brokerage services. Reclassification Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Reverse Stock Split The Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split on November 16, 2022. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”). The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual period beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |

Statutory Reserve and Restricted Net Assets The Company’s PRC subsidiary, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company. The payment of dividends by entities organized in China is subject to limitations, procedures and formalities. Regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. The Company is required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, comprising the statutory surplus reserve and the discretionary surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the statutory surplus reserve are required to be at least 10% of the after-tax net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s registered capital. Appropriations to the discretionary surplus reserve are made at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. The statutory reserve may be applied against prior year losses, if any, and may be used for general business expansion and production or increase in registered capital, but are not distributable as cash dividends. Relevant PRC laws and regulations restrict the Company’s PRC subsidiary, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries from transferring a portion of their net assets, equivalent to their statutory reserves and their share capital, to the Company’s shareholders in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Only PRC entities’ accumulated profits may be distributed as dividends to the Company’s shareholders without the consent of a third party. As of both April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, the restricted amounts as determined pursuant to PRC statutory laws totaled $226,253, and total restricted net assets amounted to $6,683,176.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Contingencies From time to time, the Company may be subject to certain legal proceedings, claims and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Operating Leases Commitment The Company is a party to leases for office space. These lease agreements will expire through October 2024. Rent expense under all operating leases, included in operating expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, amounted to approximately $49,000 and $212,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:
The following table summarizes the lease term and discount rate for the Company’s operating lease as of April 30, 2023:
The following table summarizes the maturity of lease liabilities under operating lease as of April 30, 2023:
NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued) Variable Interest Entity Structure In the opinion of the management, (i) the corporate structure of the Company is in compliance with existing PRC laws and regulations; (ii) the VIE Agreements are valid and binding, and do not result in any violation of PRC laws or regulations currently in effect; and (iii) the business operations of WFOE, VIE and VIE’s subsidiaries are in compliance with existing PRC laws and regulations in all material respects. However, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC laws and regulations. Accordingly, the Company cannot be assured that PRC regulatory authorities will not ultimately take a contrary view to the foregoing opinion of its management. If the current corporate structure of the Company or the VIE Agreements are found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws and regulations, the Company may be required to restructure its corporate structure and operations in the PRC to comply with changing and new PRC laws and regulations. In the opinion of management, the likelihood of loss in respect of the Company’s current corporate structure or the VIE Agreements is remote based on current facts and circumstances. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates during the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 include the valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, and the valuation of stock-based compensation. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 820 for fair value measurements 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:
Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Short-term investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. The Company did not have any short-term investment at April 30, 2023. The following table provides these assets carried at fair value, measured as of October 31, 2022:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in banks, savings, deposit accounts, and all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts. At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:
Cash in China may not be freely transferable out of the PRC because of exchange control regulations or other reasons. For purposes of the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash In its capacity as an insurance broker, occasionally, the Company collects premiums from certain insureds and remits the premiums to the appropriate insurance carriers. Unremitted insurance premiums are held in a fiduciary capacity bank account until disbursed by the Company to the respective insurance carriers. The unremitted funds are held in a bank for a short period of time. In addition, the Company as an insurance broker is required to reserve 10% of its registered capital in cash held in an escrow bank account pursuant to the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CIRC”) rules and regulations. As of April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, restricted cash amounted to $732,602 and $692,734, respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk and Uncertainties | Concentration of Credit Risk and Uncertainties The ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic, reported to have started in December 2019 in China and spread globally, are filled with uncertainty and changing quickly. The Company is operating in a rapidly changing environment so the extent to which COVID-19 impacts its business, operations and financial results from this point forward will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company cannot accurately predict. Those factors include the following: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic. A portion of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. Balances at state-owned banks within the PRC are covered by insurance up to RMB 500,000 (approximately $72,000) per bank. Any balance over RMB 500,000 per bank in PRC will not be covered. At April 30, 2023, cash balances held in the PRC were RMB 199,459,879 (approximately $28,856,000), of which, RMB 198,208,941 (approximately $28,675,000) was not covered by such limited insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. Currently, the Company’s operations are carried out in China. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in China, and by the general state of China’s economy. The Company’s operations in China are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales to customers whose ability to pay are dependent upon the prevailing industry economics; however, concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to short-term payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Short-term Investments | Short-term Investments Short-term investments are investments in wealth management products with underlying bonds offered by a private entity. The investments can be redeemed upon notice and their carrying values approximate their fair values. The income (loss) from sale of any investments and fair value change are recognized in the statement of operations. The Company had short-term investments of $0 and $26,179,662 as of April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, respectively. Income from short term investments for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $429,645 and $293,172, respectively, which was included in interest income on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. At April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022, accounts receivable consisted of the following:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reserve for Policy Cancellations | Reserve for Policy Cancellations Managements establishes the policy cancellation reserve based on historical and current data on cancellations. No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for our brokerage business as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that the cancellation of policies rarely occurs. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised goods or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” goods or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:
If a goods or service is not distinct, the goods or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company’s revenue is derived from contracts with customers of provisions of insurance brokerage services. The Company does not provide any insurance agent services. The distinct performance obligation is policy placement services. Billing is controlled by the insurance carriers, therefore, the data necessary to reasonably determine the revenue amounts is made available to the Company by the insurance carriers on a monthly basis. Insurance brokerage services are considered to be rendered and completed, and revenue is recognized, at the time an insurance policy becomes effective, that is, when the signed insurance policy is in place and the premium is collected from the insured, which is confirmed by the insurance carriers with their monthly commissions statements submitted to the Company. The Company has met all the criteria of revenue recognition when the premiums are collected by it or the respective insurance carriers and not before, because collectability is not ensured until receipt of the premium. Accordingly, the Company does not accrue any commission prior to the receipt of the related premiums. Generally, at the time when the insurance policy is signed, it is difficult for us to assess the insured’s ability and intention to pay the premium due on the policy. Therefore, it is not possible for us to estimate if we will collect substantially all of the commission to which we will be entitled in exchange for our insurance brokerage services. For this reason we recognize revenue when the premiums are either collected by us or by the respective insurance carriers and not before, due to the specific practice in the industry. No allowance for cancellations has been recognized for its brokerage business, as the Company estimates, based on its past experience, that cancellations of policies rarely occur. Any subsequent commission adjustments in connection with policy cancellations, which have been minimal to date, are recognized upon notification from the insurance carriers. Actual commission adjustments in connection with the cancellations of policies were 0.6% and 0.8% of the total commission revenue for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Occasionally, certain policyholders or insureds might request the Company to assist them for claim process on their behalf with the insurance carriers. The Company generally will spend approximately an hour on the phone with the insurance carriers if such assistance is requested by the insured. Based on historical experience, claim service calls and related labor costs have been minimal. The Company spent approximately 0 and 9 hours in connection with the claim process services provided to the insureds for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Based on historical data, the transaction price does not include any element of consideration that is variable or contingent on the outcome of future events, such as policy cancellations, lapses, and volume of business or claims experience. The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stock-based Compensation | Stock-based Compensation The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting standards for non-employee and employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, the fair value of stock issued is used to measure the fair value of services received by the Company. For non-employee stock-based awards, fair value is measured based on the value of the Company’s stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been established. The fair value of the equity instrument is calculated and then recognized as compensation expense over the requisite performance period. For employee stock-based awards, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis, as specified in the stock grant, over the requisite service period for the award. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction | Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the parent company, TRX, and TRX HK, is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of TRX BJ, TRX ZJ, and TRX ZJ’s subsidiaries, is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). For the entities whose functional currency is the RMB, result of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts relating to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue and expense transactions are transacted in the functional currency of the operating entities. The Company does not enter into any material transactions in foreign currencies. Transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. The condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity, at April 30, 2023 and October 31, 2022 were translated at RMB 6.9122 to $1.00 and at RMB 7.3029 to $1.00, respectively. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 were RMB 6.9233 and RMB 6.3721 to $1.00, respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Commitment and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for such contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Per Share Data | Per Share Data ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary stock were exercised or converted into ordinary stock or resulted in the issuance of ordinary stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Basic net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary stock, ordinary stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. For the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, potentially dilutive ordinary shares consisted of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of ordinary stock warrants (using the treasury stock method). Ordinary stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact. The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Segment Reporting | Segment Reporting ASC 280 “Segment reporting” establishes standards for reporting information on operating segments in interim and annual financial statements. The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and chairman of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. The Company has determined that it has one reportable business segment. During the six months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, all of the Company’s customers were in the PRC and all revenue was derived from the provision of insurance brokerage services. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reclassification | Reclassification Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reverse Stock Split | Reverse Stock Split The Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split on November 16, 2022. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”). The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual period beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |
