**PART
I**
**ITEM
1. BUSINESS**
**Business
Overview**
**Ezagoo
Limited, a Nevada corporation (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 9, 2018.**
Beijing
Ezagoo Zhicheng Internet Technology Limited (BEZL) is the Company through which we operate, and which generates revenue
from providing advertising services on Xindian application platform, that is developed and operates by the Company (advertisement
income) since January 2022 to April 2023, providing e-commerce trading of goods and products on ZCZX WeChat Application that is
subscribed from Weimob (, HK02013) (trading income) since September 2022, and providing
e-commerce value-added service in LSM WeChat Application which is also subscribed from Weimob (, HK02013)
(commission income since November 2022 (however, the Company only generated the commission income till March 2023 now,
as the Customer is updating theyre products line since April 2023 and they have been launch their new products in January 2024).
The
Xindian platform operates within the Chinese digital advertising network through advertisements displayed on the mobile application named
Xindian that was launched by the Company on October 2020, its relying on strong R&D background to build a technology
based on block chain, fusion merchants and user needs in the integration of social short video platform, that provides many functions,
such as self-service advertising, sharing and creating short video, making money in space time, selling goods online and shopping, social
networking. We focus on medical beauty and anti-aging scale that differentiate us from another short video platform. Were planned
to expand our brand to attract more potential users and customers as we met the bottleneck when we transformed the traditional bus advertising
to our Xindian platform since January 1, 2022 (as the Changsha government decided to merger and control all the local bus themselves
that effected on December 28, 2021), and were aimed to build an innovative service platform for industrial clusters. However,
due to the high-level market competitive (Tiktok, RED etc.), the effect of the Covid-19, and the unsatisfactory operating datas,
the Company decided to shut down the operation of Xindian Application effective from April 2023.
Under
the repeated impact of the three years COVID-19 epidemic, the global health awareness is increasing, and consumers are paying more and
more attention to whether the daily diet is healthy. According to the 2022 National Health Insight report released by Doctor Dingxiang,
half of Chinese people say their eating habits have become healthier since the pandemic. With the improvement of Chinese residents
living standards, health has become the consensus of more and more people.
According
to the recent released <China Nutrition and Health Food Industry Blue Book 
(hereinafter as the Blue Book)> on February 6, 2024 by the China Insights Consultancy and the Social Media, Beijing
Dama Technology Ltd.: Chinas domestic nutrition and health food market is in a stage of vigorous development, the market size
is huge, and shows a trend of continuous growth. This growth is mainly due to two major factors: first, under the background of an aging
population, consumers demand for nutritious and healthy food continues to increase; second, consumers health awareness
has increased, and people are paying more and more attention to the health and nutrition of diet. The blue book shows that the consumption
trend of the nutrition and health food market is gradually developing in the direction of younger people, daily maintenance, and diversified
demand segmentation.
Health
food is a kind of food, with general food common, its raw materials are mainly from natural animals and plants, through advanced production
technology, it contains a wealth of effective ingredients to play the role to the maximum, so as to regulate human function, mainly including
high-quality agricultural products, health food, etc. There are three main categories of healthy foods, namely cereals, dried fruits
and other healthy foods. Cereals usually refer to unprocessed cereals or foods made from processed whole grains. Cereals usually include
whole grain meal replacements, multigrains, breakfast cereals, etc.
At
present, Chinas health food focuses on immune regulation, anti-aging, anti-fatigue and other fields, and the future development
trend is that the product function distribution will gradually be diverged, and the health food industry will become rational. Traditional
Chinese medicine health food, health food for the aged, occupational health food, insect health food, Marine health food, the third-generation
health food and so on are the future development direction of health food in China.
**Marketing
Plan**
We
expect to increase our marketing efforts through our Presidents personal networks and industry association channels which have
not, at this point in time, been fully identified. Additionally, we intend to bolster our professional reputation and image by showcasing
our knowledge and industry expertise via marketing campaigns through various forms of media. We have undefined plans to initially market
our services through webinars, the creation of a wide variety of white papers, newsletters, books, and other information offerings. Furthermore,
we plan to begin a social media campaign utilizing blogs, twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Weibo, WeChat etc. A targeted campaign is intended
to be made to focus on start-ups and small to mid-size companies in various industries.
**Competition**
We
compete primarily with several different groups of competitors: Online trading companies that operate E-commerce, such as Tik Tok, RED,
TaoBao, JD, Pinduoduo, etc.
The
E-commerce trading industry our company operates in is extremely competitive and there are limited barriers to entry, thus new competitors
frequently enter the market. We believe that existing and new competitors will continue to improve their services and introduce new services
with competitive pricing and performance characteristics. In periods of reduced demand for our services, we can either choose to maintain
market share by reducing our prices to attract new customers, or maintain prices, which would likely reduce market share. Sales and overall
profitability could be reduced in either case.

****
**Future
Plans**
In
accordance with the marketing strategy of the Company, we have been further upgraded in the development direction of the project, with
the two Wechat applications, ZCZX and LSM, and three directions, Xin Beauty, Xin Food, Xin Farm, to build a health industry chain. It
is our goal to optimize the efficiency of city services and connect to residents by creating the online healthy e-commerce network in
China. We aim to be a promoter and participator of a health beauty concept. At present, we solely focus on Changsha city,
but in the future, we plan to allocate funds to integrate online platform and new communication technology regionally. And we expect
to reach more than 500 million users on our platform and expand to 300 cities throughout Mainland China in the next three to five years.
However,
without an appropriate budget and intensive research, plans referring to development, expansion, potential unidentified acquisitions
and concrete timescales cannot be determined at present.
**Government
regulation**
We
are subject to the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate, which may include business licensing requirements,
income taxes and payroll taxes. In general, the development and operation of our business is not subject to special regulatory and/or
supervisory requirements.
**Employees**
As
of December 31, 2024, we have 28 employees comprised of our President, Xiaohao Tan and Chief Financial Officer, Yibo Li, all of which
were on a full-time basis. All of our employees are based in the cities of Beijing and Changsha, where our operations are located.
As
required by PRC regulations, we participate in various government statutory employee benefit plans, including social insurance funds,
namely a pension contribution plan, a medical insurance plan, an unemployment insurance plan, a work-related injury insurance plan, a
maternity insurance plan and a housing provident fund. We are required under PRC law to make contributions to employee benefit plans
at specified percentages of the salaries, bonuses and certain allowances of our employees, up to a maximum amount specified by the local
government from time to time.
We
believe that we maintain a good working relationship with our employees, and we have not experienced any major labor disputes.

**ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS**
You
should carefully consider the risks described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report, which could materially and adversely affect
our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our business faces significant risks and the risks described below may not
be the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may materially affect
our business, results of operations, or financial condition. If any of these risks occur, the trading price of our common stock could
be decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.
**COVID-19
Pandemic**
**COVID-19
pandemic has had, and may continue to have, an adverse effect on our business and our financial results.**
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was discovered in China, which has and is continuing to spread throughout the world. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in quarantines, travel restrictions,
and the temporary closure of stores and business facilities globally. On
January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease a Public Health Emergency of International
Concern. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a pandemic. 
In 2020, COVID-19 had a material
impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In 2022, the sporadic outbreaks of COVID-19 had material impact
on the industry in China. The governments zero-COVID policy required, from time to time, quarantines, rolling lockdowns,
office closures and travel restrictions to control outbreaks in affected local areas. As a result of the COVID control measures, we were
unable to implement some of our business and marketing plans, and our operating results were negatively affected by the sporadic COVID
outbreaks and strict government response measures. In December 2022, the PRC government ended the implementation of the zero-COVID
policy and the overall market condition has shown improvement since then. However, COVID-19 could adversely affect our business and results
of operations in the future if any COVID resurgence causes significant disruptions to our operations, logistics and service providers.
We cannot predict the severity and duration of the impact from such resurgence, if any. If any new outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively
and timely controlled, or if government responses to outbreaks or potential outbreaks are severe or long-lasting, our business operations
and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the deteriorating market outlook, the slowdown in regional
and national economic growth, weakened liquidity and financial condition of our customers or other factors that we cannot foresee. Any
of these factors and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment, cause uncertainties
in the regions where we conduct business, and could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in, and a significant outbreak of other infectious diseases could result in, a widespread health
crisis that could materially and adversely affect the economies and financial markets worldwide, and the operations and financial
position of any potential target business with which we consummate a business combination could be materially and adversely
affected. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our search for business combinations will depend on future developments, which are
highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the
actions to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. If the disruptions posed by COVID-19 or other matters of global
concern continue for an extensive period of time, our ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target
business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected.
| 5 | |
In
addition, our ability to consummate a business combination may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may
be impacted by COVID-19 and other events, including as a result of increased market volatility, decreased market liquidity and third-party
financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to us or at all.
COVID-19
could negatively affect our internal controls over financial reporting as a portion of our workforce is required to work from home and
therefore new processes, procedures, and controls could be required to respond to changes in our business environment. Further, should
any key employees become ill from COVID-19 and unable to work, the attention of the management team and resources could be diverted.
The
potential effects of COVID-19 could also heighten the risks we face related to each of the risk factors disclosed below. As COVID-19
and its impacts are unprecedented and continuously evolving, the potential impacts to these risk factors remain uncertain. As a result,
COVID-19 may also materially adversely affect our operating and financial results in a manner that is not currently known to us or that
we do not currently consider may present significant risks to our operations.
**Risks
Related to our Business**
**We
rely entirely on the operations of Beijing Ezagoo Zhicheng Internet Technology Limited (BEZL). Any successes or failures
of BEZL will directly impact our financial condition and may cause your investment to be either positively or negatively impacted.**
At
present, we share the same business plan as, and rely entirely upon, Beijing Ezagoo Zhicheng Internet Technology Limited (BEZL).
Any successes or failures of BEZL will directly impact our financial condition and may cause your investment to be either positively
or negatively impacted. BEZL is considered a variable interest entity through which we operate exclusively at this time and we have been
deemed to currently be a direct beneficiary of BEZL. As such, in the event that the business of operations of BEZL were to fail, then
our own business would, in turn, fail as well. We would be forced to either drastically alter our business strategy, or we would likely
cease operations entirely, which could result in the whole or partial loss of any investments made in the Company.
**Competition
from both large, established industry participants and new market entrants may negatively affect our current and future results of operations.**
We
face vigorous competition from companies throughout the world and in China specifically, including large multinational advertising companies.
Some established competitors have greater resources and better accessibility than us, therefore they are able to adapt quicker to changes
in customer requirements and reach customers easier from all over the globe. If we are unable to continue to compete effectively, it
could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
**If
we do not manage our growth effectively, the quality of our solution or our relationships with our customers may suffer, and our operating
results may be negatively affected.**
We
rely heavily on information technology, or IT, systems to manage critical functions such as advertising & e-commerce campaign management
and operations, data storage and retrieval, revenue recognition, budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting and other administrative
functions. To manage our growth effectively, we must continue to improve and expand our infrastructure, including our IT, financial and
administrative systems and controls. We must also continue to manage our employees, operations, finances, research and development and
capital investments efficiently. Our productivity and the quality of our solution may be adversely affected if we do not integrate and
train our new employees, particularly our sales and account management personnel, quickly and effectively and if we fail to appropriately
coordinate across our executive, engineering, finance, human resources, legal, marketing, sales, operations and customer support teams.
If we continue our rapid growth, we will incur additional expenses, and our growth may continue to place a strain on our resources, infrastructure
and ability to maintain the quality of our solution. If we do not adapt to meet these evolving growth challenges, and if the current
and future members of our management team do not effectively scale with our growth, the quality of our solution may suffer and our corporate
culture may be harmed. Failure to manage our future growth effectively could cause our business to suffer, which, in turn, could have
an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
**We
may require additional capital to support growth, and such capital might not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. This
could hamper our growth and adversely affect our business.**
We
intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds, beyond those generated by this
offering, to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features or enhance our platform, improve our operating
infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in public or private equity,
equity-linked or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible
debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights,
preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing that we secure in the future could involve
restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, including the ability to
pay dividends. This may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential
acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate
financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and respond to business
challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business could be adversely affected.
| 6 | |
****
**We
may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors because competition in our industry is intense, and our
competitors may offer solutions that are perceived by our customers to be more attractive than ours. These factors could result in declining
revenue, or inability to grow our business.**
Competition
for our advertisers advertising budgets is intense. We also expect competition to increase as the barriers to enter our market
are low. Increased competition may force us to charge less for our solution, or offer pricing models that are less attractive to us and
decrease our margins. Our principal competitors include companies that offer demand-side platforms that allow advertisers to purchase
inventory directly from advertising exchanges or other third parties and manage their own consumer data, traditional advertising networks
and advertising agencies themselves.
We
also rely predominately on advertising agencies to purchase our solution on behalf of advertisers, and certain of those agencies or agency
holding companies are creating competitive solutions, referred to as agency trading desks. If these agency trading desks are successful
in leveraging their relationships with the advertisers we may be unable to compete even if our solution is more effective. Many agencies
that we work with are also owned by large agency holding companies. For various reasons related to the agencies own priorities
or those of their holding companies, they may not recommend our solution, even though it may be more effective, and we may not have the
opportunity to demonstrate our value to advertisers.
Many
current and potential competitors have competitive advantages relative to us, such as longer operating histories, greater name recognition,
larger client bases, greater access to advertising inventory on premium websites and significantly greater financial, technical, sales
and marketing resources. Increased competition may result in reduced pricing for our solution, longer sales cycles or a decrease of our
market share, any of which could negatively affect our revenue and future operating results and our ability to grow our business.
**We
have been dependent on short video and digital display advertising. A decrease in the use of display advertising, or our inability to
further penetrate display, mobile, social and video advertising channels would harm our business, growth prospects, operating results
and financial condition.**
Historically,
our customers have predominantly used our solution for short video display advertising, and the substantial majority of our revenue is
derived from advertisers, that use our solution for short video display advertising. We expect that digital display advertising will
continue to be a significant channel used by our customers. Recently, the overall demand for our display advertising growth has been
decline. In addition, our failure to achieve market acceptance of our solution for mobile, social and video advertising would harm our
growth prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
**We
have historically relied, and expect to continue to rely, on our existing customers for a significant portion of our revenue. The loss
of any of existing customers could significantly harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.**
We
expect that we will continue to depend upon our existing customers for a significant portion of our revenue for the foreseeable future.
As a result, if we fail to successfully attract or retain new or existing customers or if existing customers run fewer advertisement
and e-commerce order campaigns with us, defer or cancel their insertion orders, or terminate their relationship with us altogether, whether
through the actions of their agency representatives or otherwise, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be
harmed.
**Our
sales and marketing efforts require significant investment, which may not yield returns in the foreseeable future, if at all.**
We
have invested significant resources in our research and development, sales and marketing teams to educate potential and prospective advertisers
about the value of our solution. We often spend substantial time and resources explaining how our solution can optimize advertising campaigns
in real time, and responding to requests for proposals from potential advertisers, including developing material specific to the needs
of such potential advertisers. Our business depends in part upon advertisers confidence that represent those advertisers, that
our use of real-time advertising exchanges to purchase inventory is superior to other methods of purchasing digital display advertising.
We may not be successful in attracting new advertisers despite our investment in our business development, sales and marketing organizations.
**If
we do not effectively grow and train our sales team, we may be unable to add new customers or increase sales to our existing customers,
and our business would be adversely affected.**
We
continue to be substantially dependent on our sales team to obtain new customers and to drive sales from our existing customers. We believe
that there is significant competition for sales personnel with the skills and technical knowledge that we require. Our ability to achieve
significant revenue growth will depend, in large part, on our success in recruiting, training, integrating and retaining sufficient numbers
of sales personnel to support our growth. Our current sales team is mainly trained and experienced in selling to advertising and e-commerce.
If more of our business shifts to direct relationships with brand advertisers, we may not have an adequately trained sales team to support
that shift and to sell products effectively to those advertisers. New hires require significant training and it may take significant
time before they achieve full productivity. Our recent hires and planned hires may not become productive as quickly as we expect, and
we may be unable to hire or retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals in the markets where we do business or plan to do business.
In addition, as we continue to grow rapidly, a large percentage of our sales team will be new to the Company and our solution. If we
are unable to hire and train sufficient numbers of effective sales personnel, or the sales personnel are not successful in obtaining
new customers or increasing sales to our existing customer base, our business would be adversely affected.

**Risks
Related to Doing Business in China**
**Certain
judgments obtained against us by our officers and directors may not be enforceable**
We
are a Nevada corporation but most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Almost all our operations are conducted
in the PRC. In addition, all our officers and directors are the nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. Almost
all of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within
the United States upon them. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of
the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, since he or she is not a resident in the United States. In
addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC or other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S.
courts.
**Regulations
Relating to M&A Rules and certain other PRC regulations establish complex procedures for some acquisitions of Chinese companies by
foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.**
On
August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, adopted the Regulations
on Mergers of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rules, which became effective on September 8, 2006 and was amended
on June 22, 2009. Foreign investors shall comply with the M&A Rules when they purchase equity interests of a domestic company or
subscribe the increased capital of a domestic company, thus changing the nature of the domestic company into a foreign-invested enterprise;
or when the foreign investors establish a foreign-invested enterprise in the PRC, purchase the assets of a domestic company and operate
the assets; or when the foreign investors purchase the asset of a domestic company, establish a foreign-invested enterprise by injecting
such assets and operate the assets. The M&A Rules purport, among other things, to require offshore special purpose vehicles formed
for overseas listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC companies or individuals, to obtain
the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange.
The
M&A Rules discussed in the risk factor and related regulations and rules concerning mergers and acquisitions established additional
procedures and requirements that could make merger and acquisition activities by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex. For
example, the M&A Rules require that MOFCOM be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor
takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise, if (i) any important industry is concerned, (ii) such transaction involves factors that have
or may have impact on the national economic security, or (iii) such transaction will lead to a change in control of a domestic enterprise
which holds a famous trademark or PRC time-honored brand, (iv) or in circumstances where overseas companies established or controlled
by PRC enterprises or residents acquire affiliated domestic companies. Mergers, acquisitions or contractual arrangements that allow one
market player to take control of or to exert decisive impact on another market player must also be notified in advance to the MOFCOM
when the threshold under the Provisions on Thresholds for Prior Notification of Concentrations of Undertakings issued by the State Council
in August 2008 is triggered.
In
addition, the security review rules issued by the MOFCOM that became effective in September 2011 specify that mergers and acquisitions
by foreign investors that raise national defense and security concerns and mergers and acquisitions through which foreign
investors may acquire de facto control over domestic enterprises that raise national security concerns are subject to strict
review by the MOFCOM, and the rules prohibit any activities attempting to bypass a security review, including by structuring the transaction
through a proxy or contractual control arrangement. Furthermore, according to the security review, foreign investments that would result
in acquiring the actual control of assets in certain key sectors, such as critical agricultural products, energy and resources, equipment
manufacturing, infrastructure, transport, cultural products and services, information technology, Internet products and services, financial
services and technology sectors, are required to obtain approval from designated governmental authorities in advance.
In
the future, we may grow our business by acquiring complementary businesses. Complying with the requirements of the above-mentioned regulations
and other relevant rules to complete such transactions, if required, could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including
obtaining approval from the MOFCOM or its local counterparts may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions. It is unclear
whether our business would be deemed to be in an industry that raises national defense and security or national
security concerns. However, the MOFCOM or other government agencies may publish explanations in the future determining that our
business is in an industry subject to the security review, in which case our future acquisitions in the PRC, including those by way of
entering into contractual control arrangements with target entities, may be closely scrutinized or prohibited. Our ability to expand
our business or maintain or expand our market share through future acquisitions would as such be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore,
according to the M&A Rules, if a PRC entity or individual plans to merge or acquire its related PRC entity through an overseas company
legitimately incorporated or controlled by such entity or individual, such a merger and acquisition will be subject to examination and
approval by the MOFCOM. There is a possibility that the PRC regulators may promulgate new rules or explanations requiring that we obtain
the approval of the MOFCOM or other PRC governmental authorities for our completed or ongoing mergers and acquisitions. There is no assurance
that, if we plan to make an acquisition, we can obtain such approval from the MOFCOM or any other relevant PRC governmental authorities
for our mergers and acquisitions, and if we fail to obtain those approvals, we may be required to suspend our acquisition and be subject
to penalties. Any uncertainties regarding such approval requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and corporate structure.

**Chinas
political climate and economic conditions, as well as changes in government policies, laws and regulations which may be quick with little
advance notice, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.**
Our
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal
developments in China. For example, as a result of recent proposed changes in the cybersecurity regulations in China that would require
certain Chinese technology firms to undergo a cybersecurity review before being allowed to list on foreign exchanges, this may have the
effect of further narrowing the list of potential businesses in Chinas consumer, technology and mobility sectors that we intend
to focus on for our business combination or the ability of the combined entity to list in the United States.
Chinas
economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, level
of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While the PRC economy has experienced significant
growth in the past two to three decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Demand
for target services and products depends, in large part, on economic conditions in China. Any slowdown in Chinas economic growth
may cause our potential customers to delay or cancel their plans to purchase our services and products, which in turn could reduce our
net revenues.
Although
Chinas economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy since the late 1970s, the PRC government
continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The PRC government also exercises
significant control over Chinas economic growth through allocating resources, controlling the incurrence and payment of foreign
currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.
Changes in any of these policies, laws and regulations may be quick with little advance notice and could adversely affect the economy
in China and could have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of our common stock.
The
PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage foreign investment and sustainable economic growth and to guide the allocation
of financial and other resources. However, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not repeal or alter these measures or introduce
new measures that will have a negative effect on us, or more specifically, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not initiate
possible governmental actions or scrutiny to us, which could substantially affect our operation and the value of our common stock may
depreciate quickly. Chinas social and political conditions may change and become unstable. Any sudden changes to Chinas
political system or the occurrence of widespread social unrest could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
**Uncertainties
with respect to the PRC legal system could adversely affect us, including risks and uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and
that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice.**
We
conduct substantially all of our business through our subsidiaries in China. Our operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations.
Our PRC subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws
and regulations applicable to wholly foreign-owned enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on statutes. Prior court decisions may
be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.
Since
1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in
China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently
cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve
uncertainties. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory
provisions and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of
legal protection we enjoy. These uncertainties may affect our judgment on the relevance of legal requirements and our ability to enforce
our contractual rights or tort claims. In addition, these regulatory uncertainties may be exploited through unmerited or frivolous legal
actions or threats in attempts to extract payments or benefits from us.
In
addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely
basis or at all) that may change quickly with little advance notice or have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of
our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party
of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to enhance its enforcement against illegal
activities in the securities markets and promote the high-quality development of capital markets, which, among other things, requires
the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision
over Chinese companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the Chinese securities
laws. Since this document is relatively new, uncertainties exist in relation to how soon legislative or administrative regulation-making
bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or
promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on companies like us. It is especially
difficult for us to accurately predict the potential impact on us of new legal requirements in mainland China because the Chinese legal
system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions under the civil law system
may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.
Such
uncertainties, including any inability to enforce our contracts, together with any development or interpretation of PRC law that is adverse
to us, could materially and adversely affect our business and operations. Furthermore, intellectual property rights and confidentiality
protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other more developed countries. We cannot predict the effect
of future developments in the PRC legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation
or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections
available to us and our investors.

**The
Chinese government may intervene or influence the operation of our PRC subsidiaries and exercise significant oversight and discretion
over the conduct of their business and may intervene in or influence their operations at any time, or may exert more control over securities
offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in operations
of our PRC subsidiaries and/or the value of our common stock.**
The
Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through
regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those
relating to securities regulation, data protection, cybersecurity and mergers and acquisitions and other matters. The central or local
governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require
additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.
Government
actions in the future could significantly affect economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to
materially change our operating activities or divest ourselves of any interests we hold in Chinese assets. Our business may be subject
to various government and regulatory interference in the areas in which we operate. We may incur increased costs necessary to comply
with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. Our operations could be adversely affected,
directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to our business or industry.
Given
recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted
overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability
to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
Recently,
the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued
the Opinions on Severely Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities According to Law, or the Opinions, which was made available to
the public on July 6, 2021. The Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities, and
the need to strengthen the supervision over overseas listings by Chinese companies. Effective measures, such as promoting the construction
of relevant regulatory systems, will be taken to deal with the risks and incidents of China-based overseas listed companies. As of the
date of this report, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanctions from PRC government authorities in connection with
the Opinions.
On
June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National Peoples Congress of China, or the SCNPC, promulgated the Data Security Law,
which took effect in September 2021. The PRC Data Security Law imposes data security and privacy obligations on entities and individuals
carrying out data activities, and introduces a data classification and hierarchical protection system based on the importance of data
in economic and social development, and the degree of harm it will cause to national security, public interests, or legitimate rights
and interests of individuals or organizations when such data is tampered with, destroyed, leaked, illegally acquired or used. The PRC
Data Security Law also provides for a national security review procedure for data activities that may affect national security and imposes
export restrictions on certain data an information. The law provides for privacy obligations of entities and individuals carrying out
data activities, prohibits entities and individuals in China from providing any foreign judicial or law enforcement authority with any
data stored in China without approval from the competent PRC authority, and sets forth the legal liabilities of entities and individuals
found to be in violation of their data protection obligations, including rectification order, warning, fines of up to RMB10 million,
suspension of relevant business, and revocation of business permits or licenses.
In
early July 2021, regulatory authorities in China launched cybersecurity investigations with regard to several China-based companies that
are listed in the United States. The Chinese cybersecurity regulator announced on July 2 that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global
Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the companys app be removed from smartphone app stores. On July 5, 2021, the
Chinese cybersecurity regulator launched the same investigation on two other Internet platforms, Chinas Full Truck Alliance of
Full Truck Alliance Co. Ltd. (NYSE: YMM) and Boss of KANZHUN LIMITED (Nasdaq: BZ). On July 24, 2021, the General Office of the Communist
Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly released the Guidelines for Further Easing the Burden
of Excessive Homework and Off-campus Tutoring for Students at the Stage of Compulsory Education, pursuant to which foreign investment
in such firms via mergers and acquisitions, franchise development, and variable interest entities are banned from that sector.
On
July 10, 2021, the CAC released the Cybersecurity Review Measures (Revised Draft for Solicitation of Comments), or the Revised Cybersecurity
Measures, pursuant to which operator holding more than one million users/users (which is to be further specified) individual information
shall be subject to cybersecurity review before listing abroad. The cybersecurity review will evaluate, among others, the risk of critical
information infrastructure, core data, important data, or a large amount of personal information being influenced, controlled or maliciously
used by foreign governments after going public overseas. The procurement of network products and services, data processing activities
and overseas listing should also be subject to cybersecurity review if they concern or potentially pose risks to national security. According
to the effective Cybersecurity Review Measures, online platform/website operators of certain industries may be identified as critical
information infrastructure operators by the CAC, once they meet standard as stated in the National Cybersecurity Inspection Operation
Guide, and such operators may be subject to cybersecurity review. The scope of business operations and financing activities that are
subject to the Revised Cybersecurity Measures and the implementation thereof is not yet clear. As of the date of this report, we have
not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that we file for approval in connection with an offering of our
common stock.
| 10 | |
On
August 17, 2021, the State Council promulgated the Regulations on the Protection of the Security of Critical Information Infrastructure,
or the Regulations, which took effect on September 1, 2021. The Regulations supplement and specify the provisions on the security of
critical information infrastructure as stated in the Cybersecurity Review Measures. The Regulations provide, among others, that protection
department of certain industry or sector shall notify the operator of the critical information infrastructure in time after the identification
of certain critical information infrastructure.
On
August 20, 2021, the SCNPC adopted the Personal Information Security Law, which took effect on November 1, 2021. The Personal Information
Protection Law includes the basic rules for personal information processing, the rules for cross-border provision of personal information,
the rights of individuals in personal information processing activities, the obligations of personal information processors, and the
legal responsibilities for illegal collection, processing, and use of personal information. As the first systematic and comprehensive
law specifically for the protection of personal information in the PRC, the Personal Information Protection Law provides, among others,
that (i) an individuals consent shall be obtained to use sensitive personal information, such as biometric characteristics and
individual location tracking, (ii) personal information operators using sensitive personal information shall notify individuals of the
necessity of such use and impact on the individuals rights, and (iii) where personal information operators reject an individuals
request to exercise his or her rights, the individual may file a lawsuit with a Peoples Court.
On
December 28, 2021, the CAC, NDRC, and other regulatory agencies jointly issued the final version of the Revised Cybersecurity Review
Measures, or the Measures, which took effect and replace the previously issued Revised Measures for Cybersecurity Review on February
15, 2022. Under the Revised Review Measures, an online platform operator in possession of personal data of more than one
million users must apply for a cybersecurity review if it intends to list its securities on a foreign stock exchange. The operators of
critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services, and the online platform operators (together with the operators
of critical information infrastructure, the Operators) carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect
national security, shall conduct a cybersecurity review, and any online platform operator who controls more than one million users
personal information must go through a cybersecurity review by the cybersecurity review office if it seeks to be listed in a foreign
country.
With
regard to the current effective data security management regulations, we dont believe that we are required to conduct data security
review for listing overseas. However, according to the Regulations on Network Data Security Management (Draft for Comment), as an overseas
listed company, we will be required to conduct an annual data security review and to comply with the relevant reporting obligations.
We have been closely monitoring the development in the regulatory landscape in China, particularly regarding the requirement of approvals,
including on a retrospective basis, from the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC authorities with respect to this offering, as well as regarding
any annual data security review or other procedures that may be imposed on us. If any approval, review or other procedure is in fact
required, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such approval or complete such review or other procedure timely or at all.
For any approval that we may be able to obtain, it could nevertheless be revoked and the terms of its issuance may impose restrictions
on our operations and offerings relating to our securities. The regulatory requirements with respect to cybersecurity and data privacy
are constantly evolving and can be subject to varying interpretations, and significant changes, resulting in uncertainties about the
scope of our responsibilities in that regard. Failure to comply with the cybersecurity and data privacy requirements in a timely manner,
or at all, may subject us to government enforcement actions and investigations, fines, penalties, suspension or disruption of our operations,
among other things.
Given
that the above referenced laws, regulations and policies were recently promulgated or publicly released, their interpretation, application
and enforcement are subject to substantial uncertainties.
**Recent
regulatory developments in China, including greater oversight and control by the CAC over data security, may subject us to additional
regulatory review and any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over foreign investment in China-based
issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the
value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.**
Recent
statements by the Chinese government have indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas
and/or foreign investments in China based issuers. The PRC government recently initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements
to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, among other things, including adopting new measures to extend the
scope of cybersecurity reviews, cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly
enforcement. The PRC government is increasingly focused on data security, recently launching cybersecurity review against a number of
mobile apps operated by several U.S.-listed Chinese companies and prohibiting these apps from registering new users during the review
period. We are subject to various risks and costs related to the collection, use, sharing, retention, security, and transfer of confidential
and private information, such as personal information and other data. Such covered data is wide ranging and relates to our investors,
employees, contractors and other third parties. The relevant PRC laws apply not only to third-party transactions, but also to transfers
of information between Ezagoo Nevada, offshore subsidiaries, our PRC subsidiaries, and other parties with which we have commercial relations.
The
PRC regulatory and enforcement regime with regard to privacy and data security is evolving. The PRC Cybersecurity Law, which was promulgated
on November 7, 2016 and became effective on June 1, 2017, provides that personal information and important data collected and generated
by operators of critical information infrastructure in the course of their operations in the PRC should be stored in the PRC, and the
law imposes heightened regulation and additional security obligations on operators of critical information infrastructure.
| 11 | |
On
November 14, 2021, the CAC published the Regulations of Internet Data Security Management (Draft for Comments), which further regulate
the internet data processing activities and emphasize the supervision and management of network data security, and further stipulate
the obligations of internet platform operators, such as to establish a system for disclosure of platform rules, privacy policies and
algorithmic strategies related to data. Specifically, the draft regulations require data processors to, among others, (i) adopt immediate
remediation measures when finding that network products and services they use or provide have security defects and vulnerabilities, or
threaten national security or endanger public interest, and (ii) follow a series of detailed requirements with respect to processing
of personal information, management of important data and proposed overseas transfer of data. In addition, the draft regulations require
data processors handling important data or the data processors to be listed overseas to complete an annual data security assessment and
file a data security assessment report to applicable regulators. Such annual assessment, as required by the draft regulations, would
encompass areas including, but not limited to, the status of important data processing, data security risks identified and the measures
adopted, the effectiveness of data protection measures, the implementation of national data security laws and regulations, data security
incidents that occurred and their handling, and a security assessment with respect to sharing and provision of important data overseas.
As of the date of this report, the draft regulations have been released for public comment only and have not been formally adopted. The
final provisions and the timeline for its adoption are subject to changes and uncertainties.
We
currently operate three online platform, one is primarily engaged in provide advertisements service in our Xindian platform to our customers
in China, the other two are engaged in provide e-commerce service in our ZCZX and LSM WeChat application to sell health and beauty products
in China, where our customers can register as members first, and then purchase advertisements promotion plan, and health and beauty products.
Our online platform collects customer information and data. Since our online platform has only been in operation for about a year, we
are in the process of studying the newly issued rules and regulations governing cybersecurity and data protection and the industry best
practice, as well as assessing the extent to which our information and data system is not in full compliance with the various requirements
under the newly proposed regulations. Based on the preliminary assessment, our management has determined that we are not in full compliance
with those new proposed rules. For example, we have not consistently informed users of the purpose, method and scope of personal information
and data collections and uses. We also have not fully implemented the measures designed by us to provide additional security to personal
information obtained and stored by us through our online platform. As of the date of this report, the proposed rules have not been adopted
and thus we are not subject to those requirements in the proposed rules.
We
are committed to taking the necessary actions to satisfy the effective personal information protection and internet data security regulatory
requirements. We have designed a user information protection mechanism, which includes seven detailed personal information and data security
protection measures. We have implemented some of those measures while is in the process of completing the execution of others. We intend
to fully comply with the following requirements should the final rules are issued in the same form as proposed: (a) enter into user information
collection, storage and use rules and privacy agreements with all users, (b) fully inform users of the purpose, method and scope of personal
information and data collection, (c) provide channels for inquiring stored personal information and correcting inaccuracies in information
and data, and (d) remediate for violations of personal information and data security protection policies and guidelines, among other
things.
On
December 28, 2021, the CAC, NDRC, and several other agencies jointly issued the Cybersecurity Review Measures, or the Measures, which
took effect on February 15, 2022 and replaced Revised Measures for Cybersecurity Review previously issued in July 2021. Under the Measures,
an online platform operator in possession of personal data of more than one million users must apply for a cybersecurity
review if it intends to list its securities on a foreign stock exchange. The operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing
network products and services, and the online platform operators (together with the operators of critical information infrastructure,
the Operators) carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct a cybersecurity
review, and any online platform operator who controls more than one million users personal information must go through a cybersecurity
review by the cybersecurity review office if it seeks to be listed in a foreign country. Pursuant to the Measures, we dont believe
we will be subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC, given that (i) we possess personal information of a relatively small number
of users (approximately 10,840 users) in our business operations as of the date of this report, significantly less than the one million
user threshold set for a data processing operator applying for listing on a foreign exchange that is required to pass such cybersecurity
review; and (ii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus shall not be classified as core
or important data by the authorities. We dont believe that we are an Operator within the meaning of the Measures, nor do we control
more than one million users personal information, and as such, we should not be required to apply for a cybersecurity review under
the Measures.
However,
in view of the fact that the Measures was released recently and there is a general lack of guidance and substantial uncertainties exist
with respect to their interpretation and implementation. For example, there is still no clear definition of online platform operator.
Whether the data processing activities carried out by traditional enterprises (such as food, medicine, automobile and other production
enterprises) are subject to such review and the scope of the review remain to be further clarified by the regulatory authorities in the
subsequent implementation process.
Furthermore,
the CAC released the draft of the Regulations on Network Data Security Management (Draft for Comment) in November 2021 for public consultation,
which among other things, stipulates that a data processor listed overseas must conduct an annual data security review by itself or by
engaging a data security service provider and submit the annual data security review report for a given year to the municipal cybersecurity
department before January 31 of the following year. If the draft Regulations on Network Data Security Management are enacted in the current
form, we, as an overseas listed company, will be required to carry out an annual data security review and comply with the relevant reporting
obligations.
| 12 | |
With
regard to the current effective data security management regulations, we dont believe that we are required to conduct data security
review for listing overseas. However, according to the Regulations on Network Data Security Management (Draft for Comment), as an overseas
listed company, we will be required to conduct an annual data security review and to comply with the relevant reporting obligations.
We have been closely monitoring the development in the regulatory landscape in China, particularly regarding the requirement of approvals,
including on a retrospective basis, from the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC authorities with respect to securities offering, as well as regarding
any annual data security review or other procedures that may be imposed on us. If any approval, review or other procedure is in fact
required, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such approval or complete such review or other procedure timely or at all.
For any approval that we may be able to obtain, it could nevertheless be revoked and the terms of its issuance may impose restrictions
on our operations and securities offerings. Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over foreign investment
in China-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors
and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.
The
regulatory requirements with respect to cybersecurity and data privacy are constantly evolving and can be subject to varying interpretations,
and significant changes, resulting in uncertainties about the scope of our responsibilities in that regard. Failure to comply with the
cybersecurity and data privacy requirements in a timely manner, or at all, may subject us to government enforcement actions and investigations,
fines, penalties, suspension or disruption of our operations, among other things.
Compliance
with the PRC Cybersecurity Law, the PRC National Security Law, the Data Security Law, the Personal Information Protection Law, the Cybersecurity
Review Measures, as well as additional laws and regulations that PRC regulatory bodies may enact in the future, may result in additional
expenses to us and subject us to negative publicity, which could harm our reputation among users and negatively affect the trading price
of our shares in the future. There are also uncertainties with respect to how the PRC Cybersecurity Law, the PRC National Security Law
and the Data Security Law will be implemented and interpreted in practice. PRC regulators, including the Ministry of Public Security,
the MIIT, the SAMR and the CAC, have been increasingly focused on regulation in the areas of data security and data protection, including
for mobile apps, and are enhancing the protection of privacy and data security by rule-making and enforcement actions at national and
local levels. We expect that these areas will receive greater and continued attention and scrutiny from regulators and the public going
forward, which could increase our compliance costs and subject us to heightened risks and challenges associated with data security and
protection. If we are unable to manage these risks, we could become subject to penalties, including fines, suspension of business, prohibition
against new user registration (even for a short period of time) and revocation of required licenses, and our reputation and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected.
**If
the Chinese government determines that our corporate structure does not comply with Chinese regulations, or if Chinese regulations change
or are interpreted differently in the future, Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our current operating structure, which would
likely result in a material change in our operations and/or cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.**
In
July 2021, the Chinese government provided new guidance on Chinese companies raising capital outside of mainland China, including through
arrangements called variable interest entities, or VIEs. Currently, our corporate structure contains no variable interest entities and
we are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations in mainland China. However, there are uncertainties with respect
to the Chinese legal system and there may be changes in laws, regulations and policies, including how those laws, regulations and policies
will be interpreted or implemented. If in the future the Chinese government determines that our corporate structure does not comply with
Chinese regulations, or if Chinese regulations change or are interpreted differently, the value of our securities may decline or become
worthless.
**The
Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas
and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or cause the value of
our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.**
The
Chinese government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene or influence our operations
as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. The Chinese government has recently published
new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the
possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding the food and beverage industry or the supply in Chinese
industries that could require us to seek permission from Chinese authorities to continue to operate our business, which may adversely
affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, recent statements made by the Chinese government have
indicated an intent to increase the governments oversight and control over offerings of companies with significant operations
in mainland China that are to be conducted in foreign markets, as well as foreign investment in China-based issuers like us. Any future
action by the Chinese government expanding the categories of industries and companies whose foreign securities offerings are subject
to government review could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors
or could disallow our current operating structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or a material
change in the value of our securities, including causing the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
On
July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly
issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital
market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law enforcement
and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system
of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws. Since this document is still relatively new, uncertainties still exist in
relation to how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations
or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new
laws and regulations will have on our future business combination with a company with major operation in China.

Further,
Chinese government continues to exert more oversight and control over Chinese technology firms. On July 2, 2021, Chinese cybersecurity
regulator announced, that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the companys
application be removed from smartphone application stores. On July 5, 2021, the Chinese cybersecurity regulator launched the same investigation
on two other Internet platforms, Chinas Full Truck Alliance of Full Truck Alliance Co. Ltd. (NYSE: YMM) and Boss of KANZHUN LIMITED
(Nasdaq: BZ).
On
December 24, 2021, the CSRC issued the Administrative Provisions of the State Council Regarding the Overseas Issuance and Listing of
Securities by Domestic Enterprises (the Draft Administrative Provisions) and the Measures for the Overseas Issuance of
Securities and Listing Record-Filings by Domestic Enterprises (Draft for Comments) (the Draft Filing Measures), collectively,
the Draft Overseas Listing Rules, which are currently published for public comments only. According to the Draft Overseas Listing Rules,
among other things, all China-based companies applying for overseas securities issuance, listing and post-listing capital operations
shall be subject to statutory procedures, such as filing and information reporting requirement. After making initial applications with
overseas stock markets for offerings or listings, all China-based companies shall file with the CSRC within three business days. In addition,
overseas offerings and listings may be prohibited for such China-based companies when any of the following applies: (a) if the securities
offerings and listings are prohibited by applicable PRC laws and rules; (b) if securities offerings and listings may constitute a threat
to, or endanger national security as reviewed and determined by PRC authorities; (c) if there are material ownership disputes over applicants
equity interests, major assets, core technologies or other items; (d) if a PRC company or its controlling shareholders or de facto controllers
have committed certain crimes, under investigation for suspicion of major violations in the prior three years; (e) if any directors,
supervisors, or senior executives of applicants have been subject to administrative punishments for severe violations, or are under investigations
for crimes or major violations; or (f) other circumstances as provided. The Draft Administrative Provisions further provide that a fine
between RMB 1 million and RMB 10 million may be imposed if a company fails to fulfill the filing requirements with the CSRC or conducts
an overseas offering or listing in violation of the Draft Overseas Listing Rules. In the case of severe violations, an order to suspend
relevant businesses or halt operations for rectification may be issued, and relevant business permits or operational license revoked.
Overseas issuance and listings subject to the Draft Overseas Listing Rules include direct and indirect issuance and listings. We believe
that our future securities offerings and proposed listing of our shares on Nasdaq Capital Market would be deemed an Indirect Overseas
Issuance and Listing under the Draft Overseas Listing Rules and will be required to complete the filing procedures and submit the relevant
information to CSRC after the Draft Overseas Listing Rules become effective. As of the date of this report, such rules have not become
effective and we are not required to complete the filing procedures if we complete this offering and begin the trading of our common
stock on the Nasdaq before the rules take effect. In addition, after the rules take effect, we would only need to submit the filing materials
and no CSRC approval would be required under the rules. Because we are relying on an opinion of counsel, there is uncertainty inherent
in relying on an opinion of counsel in connection with whether we are required to obtain permissions from a governmental agency that
is required to approve of our operations and/or listings. In the event that an government approval is required, we cannot assure you
that we will be able to receive clearance in a timely manner, or at all. Any failure of us to fully comply with new regulatory requirements
may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our common stock, cause significant disruption
to our business operations, severely damage our reputation, materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
and cause our shares to significantly decline in value or become worthless.
China
Securities Regulatory Commission and other Chinese government agencies may exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted
overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers. Additional compliance procedures may be required in connection with the offering
of our securities and our business operations, and, if required, we cannot predict whether we will be able to obtain such approval. As
a result, we face uncertainty about future actions by the PRC government that could significantly affect our ability to offer or continue
to offer securities to investors and/or conduct our operations and cause the value of our shares to significantly decline or be worthless.
**Trading
in our securities may be prohibited under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect
or investigate completed our auditors for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, or for two consecutive years if the Accelerating
Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act or the America COMPETES Act becomes law**.
In
recent years, U.S. regulatory authorities have continued to express their concerns about challenges in their oversight of financial statement
audits of U.S.-listed companies with significant operations in China. As part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on
access to audit and other information, the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, was enacted on December 18, 2020.
The HFCAA includes requirements for the SEC to identify issuers whose audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to
inspect or investigate completely because of a restriction imposed by a non-U.S. authority in the auditors local jurisdiction.
The HFCAA also requires that, to the extent that the PCAOB has been unable to inspect an issuers auditor for three consecutive
years since 2021, the SEC shall prohibit its securities registered in the United States from being traded on any national securities
exchange or over-the-counter markets in the United States.
On
March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements
of the HFCAA. The interim final rule applies to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report
issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate
completely because of a position taken by an authority in that jurisdiction. Consistent with the HFCAA, the interim final rule requires
the submission of documentation to the SEC establishing that such a registrant is not owned or controlled by a government entity in that
foreign jurisdiction and also requires disclosure in a foreign issuers annual report regarding the audit arrangements of, and
government influence on, such registrants. On May 13, 2021, the PCAOB issued proposed PCAOB Rule 6100, Board Determinations Under the
Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act for public comment. The proposed rule provides a framework for making determinations as to
whether PCAOB is unable to inspect an audit firm in a foreign jurisdiction, including the timing, factors, bases, publication and revocation
or modification of such determinations, and such determinations will be made on a jurisdiction-wide basis in a consistent manner applicable
to all firms headquartered in the jurisdiction. In November 2021, the SEC approved PCAOB Rule 6100. On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted
amendments to final rules implementing the disclosure and submission requirements of the HFCAA.
| 14 | |
On
June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act or AHFCAA, and on February 4, 2022,
the U.S. House of Representatives passed the America Creating Opportunities for Manufacturing Pre-Eminence in Technology and Economic
Strength (COMPETES) Act of 2022, or the COMPETES Act. If either bill is enacted into law, it would amend the HFCAA and require the SEC
to prohibit an issuers securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections
or complete investigations for two consecutive years instead of three. As a result, our securities may be prohibited from trading on
Nasdaq or over-the-counter markets if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years as specified in the HFCAA
or two years if the AHFCAA or the COMPETES Act becomes law, and would reduce the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading
or delisted.
On
December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCAA. The
rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public
accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a
position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions.
On
December 16, 2021, the PCAOB announced the PCAOB Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act determinations (the PCAOB determinations)
relating to the PCAOBs inability to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland
China of the PRC or Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region and dependency of the PRC, because of a position taken by one or more
authorities in the PRC or Hong Kong.
The
lack of access to the PCAOB inspection or investigation in China prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control
procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, the investors may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The
inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections or investigations of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness
of these accounting firms audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject
to the PCAOB inspections and investigations, which could cause existing and potential investors in our stock to lose confidence in our
audit procedures and reported financial information and the quality of our financial statements.
Our
current auditor, Enrome LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that is headquartered in Singapore, is a firm registered
with the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the PCAOB), and is required by the laws of the U.S. to undergo
regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess its compliance with the laws of the U.S. and professional standards. Enrome LLP is subjected to PCAOB inspections, and is not among the PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in the PRC or Hong Kong that are subject
to PCAOBs determination on December 16, 2021 of having been unable to inspect or investigate completely.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate our auditor completely, or if there is any
regulatory change or step taken by PRC regulators that does not permit Enrome LLP to provide audit documentations located in China or
Hong Kong to the PCAOB for inspection or investigation, or the PCAOB expands the scope of the Determination so that we are subject to
the HFCAA, as the same may be amended, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Any audit reports not issued by auditors
that are completely inspected or investigated by the PCAOB, or a lack of PCAOB inspections or investigations of audit work undertaken
in China that prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditors audits and their quality control procedures, could result
in a lack of assurance that our financial statements and disclosures are adequate and accurate.
**We
may be exposed to liabilities under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and any determination that we violated the foreign corrupt practices
act could have a material adverse effect on our business.**
We
are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act, or FCPA, and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign
governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. persons and issuers as defined by the statute for the purpose of obtaining
or retaining business. We will have operations, agreements with third parties and make sales in the PRC, which may experience corruption.
Our proposed activities in the PRC create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of the employees, consultants,
or sales agents of our Company, because these parties are not always subject to our control. It is our policy to implement safeguards
to discourage these practices by our employees. Also, our existing safeguards and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective,
and the employees, consultants, or sales agents of our Company may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. Violations
of the FCPA may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect
our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the government may seek to hold our Company liable for successor
liability FCPA violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.
**You
may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.**
We
are a Nevada corporation but most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Almost all our operations are conducted
in the PRC. In addition, all our officers and directors are the nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. Almost
all of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within
the United States upon them. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of
the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, since he or she is not a resident in the United States. In
addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC or other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S.
courts.

**Chinese
economic growth slowdown may have a negative effect on our business.**
Since
2014, Chinese economic growth has been slowing down from double-digit GDP speed. The annual rate of growth declined from 7.3% in
2014 to 6.9% in 2015, to 6.7% in 2016, to 6.9% in 2017, to 6.6% in 2018, and to 6.1% in 2019 2.3% in 2020, 8.45% in 2021, 3% in
2022, 5.2% in 2023 and 5% in 2024. Due to the impact of COVID-19, Chinas economic growth rate in 2020 has slowed to 2.3%, its lowest level
in years. While technology-based financial services companies have not been affected by the pandemic on the same level as companies
in certain other industries, nevertheless a slow economic growth could adversely affect many of our customers and partners, which in
turn may materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
**Under
the Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a Resident Enterprise of China. Such classification will likely
result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.**
China
passed an Enterprise Income Tax Law (the EIT Law), as most recently amended and effective on December 29, 2018, and the
related Implementation Regulations, as amended and effective on April 23 2019. Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of
China with de facto management bodies within China is considered a resident enterprise, meaning that it can
be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the EIT Law define
de facto management as substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting,
and properties of the enterprise.
On
April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation of China issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese
Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or
the Notice, further interpreting the application of the EIT Law and its implementation to offshore entities controlled by a Chinese enterprise
or group. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group
will be classified as a non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise if (i) its senior management in charge of daily
operations reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or
persons in China; (iii) its substantial assets and properties, accounting books, corporate stamps, board and stockholder minutes are
kept in China; and (iv) at least half of its directors with voting rights or senior management are often resident in China. A resident
enterprise would be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate
of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC stockholders.
Ezagoo
does not have a PRC enterprise or enterprise group as its primary controlling shareholder and is therefore not a Chinese-controlled offshore
incorporated enterprise within the meaning of the Notice, so we believe the Notice is not applicable to us. However, in the absence of
guidance specifically applicable to us, we have applied the guidance set forth in the Notice to evaluate the tax residence status of
Ezagoo for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
We
do not believe that we meet some of the conditions outlined. As a holding company, the key assets and records of Ezagoo including the
resolutions and meeting minutes of our board of directors and the resolutions and meeting minutes of our shareholders, are located and
maintained outside the PRC. In addition, we are not aware of any offshore holding companies with a corporate structure similar to ours
that have been deemed a PRC resident enterprise by the PRC tax authorities. Accordingly, we believe that Ezagoo should
not be treated as a resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes if the criteria for de facto management body
as set forth in the Notice were deemed applicable to us. However, as the tax residency status of an enterprise is subject to determination
by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term de facto management body
as applicable to our offshore entities, we will continue to monitor our tax status.
If
the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of
unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide
taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as non-China
source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Currently, we do not have any non-China source income,
so this would have minimal effect on us; however, if we develop non-China source income in the future, we could be adversely affected.
Second, under the EIT Law and its implementing rules, dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as tax-exempt
income. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new resident enterprise classification
could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect
to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. If we were treated as a resident enterprise
by the PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, but our PRC source income will not be taxed in
the U.S. again because the U.S.-China tax treaty will avoid double taxation between these two nations.
**PRC
regulation of loans and direct investment by offshore holding companies in PRC entities may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds
of our securities offerings to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC operating subsidiaries, which could materially
and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.**
In
the normal course of our business, we may make loans to our PRC subsidiaries or may make additional capital contributions to our PRC
subsidiaries. Any loans to our wholly foreign-owned or holding subsidiaries in China, which are treated as foreign-invested enterprises
(FIEs) under PRC law, are subject to PRC regulations and foreign exchange loan registrations. For example, loans by us
to our FIE subsidiaries in China to finance their activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with SAFE. In addition,
a foreign invested enterprise shall use its capital pursuant to the principle of authenticity and self-use within its business scope.
The capital of a foreign invested enterprise shall not be used for the following purposes: (i) directly or indirectly used for payment
beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations; (ii) directly or indirectly
used for investment in securities or investments other than banks principal-secured products unless otherwise provided by relevant
laws and regulations; (iii) granting of loans to non-affiliated enterprises, except where it is expressly permitted in the business license;
and (iv) paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use (except for the foreign-invested real estate
enterprises).
| 16 | |
SAFE
promulgated the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement
of Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, effective June 2015, in replacement of the Circular on the Relevant
Operating Issues Concerning the Improvement of the Administration of the Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested
Enterprises, the Notice from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Relevant Issues Concerning Strengthening the Administration
of Foreign Exchange Businesses, and the Circular on Further Clarification and Regulation of the Issues Concerning the Administration
of Certain Capital Account Foreign Exchange Businesses. According to SAFE Circular 19, the flow and use of the RMB capital converted
from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested company is regulated such that RMB capital may not be used
for the issuance of RMB entrusted loans, the repayment of inter-enterprise loans or the repayment of banks loans that have been transferred
to a third party. Although SAFE Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested
enterprise to be used for equity investments within China, it also reiterates the principle that RMB converted from the foreign currency-denominated
capital of a foreign-invested company may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope. SAFE promulgated
the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Standardizing the Foreign Exchange Settlement Management
Policy of Capital Account, or SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in SAFE Circular
19, but changes the prohibition against using RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested
company to issue RMB entrusted loans to a prohibition against using such capital to issue loans to non-associated enterprises. Violations
of SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties. SAFE Circular 19 and SAFE Circular 16 may significantly
limit our ability to transfer any foreign currency we hold, including the net proceeds from this offering, to our PRC subsidiaries, which
may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in China. On October 23, 2019, the SAFE promulgated
the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Further Promoting the Convenience of Cross-border Trade and Investment,
or the SAFE Circular 28, which, among other things, allows all foreign-invested companies to use Renminbi converted from foreign currency-denominated
capital for equity investments in China, as long as the equity investment is genuine, does not violate applicable laws, and complies
with the negative list on foreign investment. However, since the SAFE Circular 28 is newly promulgated, it is unclear how SAFE and competent
banks will implement the relevant rules in practice.
In
light of the various requirements imposed by PRC regulations on loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies,
we cannot be certain that we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals
on a timely basis, if at all, with respect to future loans to our PRC subsidiaries or future capital contributions by us to our subsidiaries
in China. As a result, uncertainties exist as to our ability to provide prompt funding to our PRC subsidiaries when needed. If we fail
to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds we expect to receive from this offering and
to capitalize or otherwise fund our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our financial
condition and operating results.
**Governmental
control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.**
The
PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency
out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current corporate structure, our income will currently only
be derived from dividend payments from our PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability
of our PRC subsidiaries to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy their foreign
currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit
distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval
from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where
RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated
in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current
account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency
demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our security-holders.
**Fluctuations
in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.**
Changes
in the value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar, Euro and other foreign currencies are affected by, among other things, changes in Chinas
political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and financial
condition, and the value of, and any dividends payable on our shares in U.S. dollar terms. For example, to the extent that we need to
convert U.S. dollars we receive from our securities offerings into RMB for our operations, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar
would have an adverse effect on RMB amount we would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S.
dollars for the purpose of paying dividends on our common stock or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against
the RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us. In addition, fluctuations of the RMB against other currencies
may increase or decrease the cost of imports and exports, and thus affect the price-competitiveness of our products against products
of foreign manufacturers or products relying on foreign inputs.
Since
July 2005, the RMB is no longer pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the Peoples Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign
exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly
in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions
on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.
We
reflect the impact of currency translation
adjustments in our financial statements under the heading accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss). For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023,
we had foreign currency translation loss of $225,800 and $125,963,
respectively. Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure
to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered
into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of
these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge
our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange gains and losses may be magnified by PRC exchange
control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

**Failure
to comply with the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules relating to the overseas direct investment or the engagement in the issuance or
trading of securities overseas by our PRC resident stockholders may subject such stockholders to fines or other liabilities.**
Our
ability to conduct foreign exchange activities in the PRC may be subject to the interpretation and enforcement of the Implementation
Rules of the Administrative Measures for Individual Foreign Exchange promulgated by SAFE in January 2007 (as amended and supplemented,
the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules). Under the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules, any PRC individual seeking to make
a direct investment overseas or engage in the issuance or trading of negotiable securities or derivatives overseas must make the appropriate
registrations in accordance with SAFE provisions. PRC individuals who fail to make such registrations may be subject to warnings, fines
or other liabilities.
SAFE
promulgated the Notice on Relevant Issues Relating to Domestic Residents Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through
Special Purpose Vehicles, or Notice 37, in July 2014 that requires PRC residents or entities to register with SAFE or its local branch
in connection with their establishment or control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing.
In addition, such PRC residents or entities must update their SAFE registrations when the offshore special purpose vehicle undergoes
material events relating to material change of capitalization or structure of the PRC resident itself (such as capital increase, capital
reduction, share transfer or exchange, merger or spin off).
We
may not be fully informed of the identities of all our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. For example, because the investment in
or trading of our shares will happen in an overseas public or secondary market where shares are often held with brokers in brokerage
accounts, it is unlikely that we will know the identity of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. Furthermore, we have no
control over any of our future beneficial owners and we cannot assure you that such PRC residents will be able to complete the necessary
approval and registration procedures required by the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules.
To
our knowledge, our beneficial owners, who are PRC residents, have not completed the Notice 37 registration. And we cannot guarantee that
all or any of the shareholders will complete the Notice 37 registration prior to the closing of this Offering. Failure by any such shareholders
or beneficial owners to comply with Notice 37 could restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our PRC subsidiaries
ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects.
In addition, the PRC resident shareholders who fail to complete Notice 37 registration may subject to fines less than RMB50,000.
As
these foreign exchange and outbound investment related regulations are relatively new and their interpretation and implementation has
been constantly evolving, it is unclear how these regulations, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border investments
and transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant government authorities.
It
is uncertain how the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules will be interpreted or enforced and whether such interpretation or enforcement
will affect our ability to conduct foreign exchange transactions. Because of this uncertainty, we cannot be sure whether the failure
by any of our PRC resident stockholders to make the required registration will subject our PRC subsidiaries to fines or legal sanctions
on their operations, delay or restriction on repatriation of proceeds of our securities offerings into the PRC, restriction on remittance
of dividends or other punitive actions that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
**There
are uncertainties under the PRC laws relating to the procedures for U.S. regulators to investigate and collect evidence from companies
located in the PRC.**
Shareholder
claims that are common in the U.S., including securities law class actions and fraud claims, among other matters, generally are difficult
to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining
information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although
the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another
country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory
authorities in the Unities States have not been efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to
Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which became effective in March 2020, or Article 177, the securities regulatory authority of the
State Council may collaborate with securities regulatory authorities of other countries or regions in order to monitor and oversee cross
border securities activities. Article 177 further provides that overseas securities regulatory authorities are not permitted to carry
out investigation and evidence collection directly within the territory of the PRC, and that any Chinese entities and individuals are
not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to overseas agencies without prior consent of
the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council.
Our
principal business operations are conducted in the PRC. In the event that the U.S. regulators carry out investigations with respect to
our business and need to conduct investigation or collect evidence within the territory of the PRC, the U.S. regulators may not be able
to carry out such investigation or evidence collection directly in the PRC under the PRC laws. The U.S. regulators may consider cross-border
cooperation with securities regulatory authority of the PRC by way of judicial assistance, diplomatic channels or regulatory cooperation
mechanism established with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC. However, there can be no assurance that the U.S. regulators
could succeed in establishing such cross-border cooperation in a specific case or could establish the cooperation in a timely manner.
If U.S. regulators are unable to conduct such investigations, such U.S. regulators may determine to suspend and ultimately delist our
common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market or choose to suspend or de-register our SEC registration.

**Failure
to comply with laws and regulations applicable to our business in China could subject us to fines and penalties and could also cause
us to lose customers or otherwise harm our business**.
Our
business is subject to regulation by various governmental agencies in China, including agencies responsible for monitoring and enforcing
compliance with various legal obligations, such as privacy and data protection-related laws and regulations, intellectual property laws,
employment and labor laws, workplace safety, environmental laws, consumer protection laws, governmental trade laws, import and export
controls, anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, and tax laws and regulations. These laws and regulations impose added costs on our business.
Noncompliance with applicable regulations or requirements could subject us to:
| 
| 
| 
investigations,
enforcement actions, and sanctions; | |
| 
| 
| 
mandatory
changes to our supply chain system and products; | |
| 
| 
| 
disgorgement
of profits, fines, and damages; | |
| 
| 
| 
civil
and criminal penalties or injunctions; | |
| 
| 
| 
claims
for damages by our customers or partners; | |
| 
| 
| 
termination
of contracts; | |
| 
| 
| 
loss
of intellectual property rights; | |
| 
| 
| 
failure
to obtain, maintain or renew certain licenses, approvals, permits, registrations or filings | |
| 
| 
| 
necessary
to conduct our operations; and | |
| 
| 
| 
temporary
or permanent debarment from sales to public service organizations. | |
If
any governmental sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, results of
operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant
diversion of our managements attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could
materially harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We
are exposed to the risk of misconduct, errors and failure to functions by our management, employees and parties that we collaborate with,
who may from time to time be subject to litigation and regulatory investigations and proceedings or otherwise face potential liability
and penalties in relation to noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations, which could harm our reputation and business.
**Payment
of dividends is subject to restrictions under Nevada and the PRC laws.**
Under
Nevada law, we may only pay dividends subject to our ability to service our debts as they become due and provided that our assets will
exceed our liabilities after the payment of such dividends. Our ability to pay dividends will therefore depend on our ability to generate
adequate profits. In addition, because of a variety of rules applicable to our operations in the PRC and the regulations on foreign investments
as well as the applicable tax law, we may be subject to further limitations on our ability to declare and pay dividends to our shareholders.
As
a holding company, we may rely on dividends and other distributions from our PRC subsidiaries and WFOEs for cash requirements. If a WFOE
incurs any debts, the instruments governing such debts may restrict its ability to pay dividends to us. In order for us to pay dividends
or other distributions to our shareholders, including investors in this offering, we will rely on payments from our subsidiaries. Cash
or other assets may be transferred to us from our subsidiaries in the following manner: (i) funds from our operating subsidiaries to
WFOEs may be remitted as services fees, dividends or other distributions; and (ii) WFOEs may make dividends or other distributions to
us through our Hong Kong subsidiaries.
Current
PRC regulations permit Chinese operating subsidiaries to pay dividends to foreign parent companies only out of their accumulated profits,
if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of our subsidiaries in China is
required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches
50% of its registered capital. Each of our subsidiaries in China is also required to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits
to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at the discretion of its board of directors.
While the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess
of retained earnings of the respective companies, the reserve funds are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation.
Cash
dividends, if any, on our common stock will be paid in U.S. dollars. The PRC government also imposes restrictions on the conversion of
RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. As such, we may experience difficulties in completing the
administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our profits, if any. Furthermore,
if our subsidiaries in the PRC incur any debts, the existence of debts evidenced by the debt instruments may significantly limit their
ability to pay dividends or make other payments. If we are unable to receive earnings distributions from our operating subsidiaries in
China, we would be unable to pay dividends on our shares.
If
we are deemed by the PRC tax authorities as a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes, any dividends we pay to our non-PRC resident
shareholders may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result, may be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of up to 10.0%.
Pursuant to the Arrangement between Mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation
and Tax Evasion on Income, or the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, the 10% withholding tax rate may be reduced to 5% if a Hong Kong
resident enterprise owns no less than 25% of a PRC entity. However, the 5% withholding tax rate does not automatically apply and certain
requirements must be satisfied, including, without limitation, that (a) the Hong Kong entity must be the beneficial owner of the relevant
dividends; and (b) the Hong Kong entity must directly hold no less than 25% share ownership in the PRC entity during the 12 consecutive
months preceding its receipt of the dividends. In practice, a Hong Kong entity must obtain a tax resident certificate from the Hong Kong
tax authority to apply for the 5% lower PRC withholding tax rate. As the Hong Kong tax authority will issue such a tax resident certificate
on a case-by-case basis, we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong
tax authority and enjoy the preferential withholding tax rate of 5% under the Double Taxation Arrangement with respect to any dividends
to be paid by our CETL, to our Hong Kong subsidiary, ELHK. CETL currently does not have any plan to declare and pay dividends, and we
have not applied for the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong tax authority. ELHK will apply for the tax resident certificate
when CETL plans to declare and pay dividends.
| 19 | |
As
of the date of this report, we have not paid, and do not anticipate paying in the foreseeable future, dividends or other distributions
to our shareholders. There have not been any dividends or other distributions from CETL to ELHK. None of our PRC subsidiaries have ever
paid any dividends or distributions outside of China. We presently intend to retain all earnings to fund our operations and business
expansions.
We
can give no assurance that we will declare dividends of any amounts, at any rate or at all in the future. The declaration of future dividends,
if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements,
general financial conditions, legal and contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.
**Our
common stock may not develop an active trading market and the price and trading volume of our shares may fluctuate significantly.**
Shares
of common stock are currently quoted on the OTC marketplace. We cannot predict whether investor interest in us will lead to the development
of an active and liquid trading market. If an active trading market does not develop, holders of our shares of common stock may have
difficulty selling our shares that may now be owned or may be purchased later. In addition, until we are able to be listed on a national
exchange, the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our shares may be reduced, we may receive decreased news and analyst coverage,
and we may be limited in our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future on terms acceptable
to us, or at all. Even if an active trading market develops for our shares, the market price of our shares may be highly volatile and
could be subject to wide fluctuations. In addition, the trading volume of our shares may fluctuate and cause significant price variations
to occur.
**In
case that our shares trade under $5.00 per share they will be considered penny stock. Trading in penny stocks has many restrictions and
these restrictions could severely affect the price and liquidity of our common stock.**
If
our stock trades below $5.00 per share, our stock would be known as a penny stock, which is subject to various regulations
involving disclosures to be given to you prior to the purchase of any penny stock. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC)
has adopted regulations which generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less
than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Depending on market fluctuations, our Common Stock would be considered as a penny
stock. A penny stock is subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell these securities
to persons other than established Members and accredited investors. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker/dealer must make
a special suitability determination for the purchase of these securities. In addition, he must receive the purchasers written
consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. He must also provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser. Consequently, the
penny stock rules may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and may negatively affect the ability
of holders of shares of our Common Stock to resell them. These disclosures require you to acknowledge that you understand the risks associated
with buying penny stocks and that you can absorb the loss of your entire investment. Penny stocks are low priced securities that do not
have a very high trading volume. Consequently, the price of the stocks is often volatile, and you may not be able to buy or sell the
stock when you want to.
**We
do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future.**
We
do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Presently, we intend to retain all our earnings, if any, to finance
development and expansion of our business. Consequently, your only opportunity to achieve a positive return on your investment in us
will be if the market price of our Common Stock appreciates.
**Our
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Xiaohao Tan, own a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock and could significantly influence
the outcome of our corporate matters.**
Mr.
Xiaohao Tan, our CEO, beneficially owns 74% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, Mr. Xiaohao Tan is collectively able
to exercise significant influence over all matters that require us to obtain shareholder approval, including the election of directors
to our board and approval of significant corporate transactions that we may consider, such as a merger or other sale of our company or
its assets. This concentration of ownership in our shares by executive officers will limit other shareholders ability to influence
corporate matters and may have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring control over us.
**The
price of our common stock may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and stockholders may not be able to
resell their shares.**
The
trading price for our common stock has fluctuated since our common stock was first quoted on the OTC marketplace. The market price of
our stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
| 
| 
| 
actual
or anticipated fluctuations in our revenue and other operating results; | |
| 
| 
| 
the
financial projections we may provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure to meet these projections; | |
| 
| 
| 
actions
of securities analysts who initiate or maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow
our company, or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors; | |
| 
| 
| 
announcements
by us or our competitors of significant products, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments; | |
| 
| 
| 
price
and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole; | |
| 
| 
| 
lawsuits
threatened or filed against us; and | |
| 
| 
| 
other
events or factors, including those resulting from health pandemics, war or incidents of terrorism, or responses to these events. | |
In
addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market
prices of securities of many companies. Stock prices of many companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the
operating performance of those companies.

**Future
sales of substantial amounts of the shares of our Common Stock by existing shareholders could adversely affect the price of our Common
Stock.**
If
our existing shareholders sell substantial amounts of the shares, then the market price of our Common Stock could fall. Such sales by
our existing shareholders might make it more difficult for us to issue new equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time
and place we deem appropriate. If any existing shareholders sell substantial amounts of shares, the prevailing market price for our shares
could be adversely affected.

**ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.**
**Risk Management and Strategy**
We have implemented cybersecurity
risk assessment procedures to ensure effectiveness in cybersecurity management, strategy and governance and reporting cybersecurity risks.
We have also integrated cybersecurity risk management into our overall enterprise risk management system.
We have used a cybersecurity threat
defense system to address both internal and external threats. This system encompasses various levels, including network, host and application
security and incorporates systematic security capabilities for threat defense, monitoring, analysis, response, deception and countermeasures.
We strive to manage cybersecurity risks and protect sensitive information through various methods, including technical safeguards, procedural
requirements, an intensive monitoring program on our corporate network, a robust incident response program, a review of the effectiveness
of our security system with reference to applicable security standards by qualified third parties and regular cybersecurity awareness
training for employees. We continuously monitor the performance of our apps, platforms and infrastructure to enable us to respond quickly
to potential problems, including potential cybersecurity threats.
As of the date of this Report,
we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents or identified any material cybersecurity threats that have affected or are
reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.
**Governance**
Our Board of Directors is responsible
for overseeing the Companys cybersecurity risk management and be informed on risks from cybersecurity threats. The Board shall
review, approve and maintain oversight of the disclosure (i) on Form 8-K for material cybersecurity incidents (if any) and (ii) related
to cybersecurity matters in the periodic reports (including annual report on Form 10-K) of the Company. In addition, our management team,
including those with experience in dealing with confidentiality-related cybersecurity issues, oversee and manage cybersecurity related
matters and formulate policies as necessary. Our Board review on an annual basis regarding assessment, identification and management
on material risks from cybersecurity threats happened in the ordinary course of our business operations. If a cybersecurity incident
occurs, our Board will promptly organize relevant personnel for internal assessment and, depending on the situation, seek the opinions
of external experts and legal advisors. If it is determined that the incident could potentially be a material cybersecurity event, our
Board will decide on the relevant response measures and whether any disclosure is necessary. If such disclosure is determined to be necessary,
such disclosure material will be prepared and reviewed by our Board before it is disseminated to the public.

5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES**
Our
common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink under the trading symbol EZOO.
Trading
in stocks quoted on the OTC market is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that
may have little to do with a companys operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market for our
common stock in the future.
**Holders**
As
of May 15, 2025, we had 119,956,826 shares of our Common Stock par value, $.0001 issued and outstanding. There were 163 beneficial
owners of our Common Stock.
**Transfer
Agent and Registrar**
The
transfer agent for our capital stock is Vstock Transfer, LLC, with an address at 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, NY 11598 and telephone
number is 212-828-8436.
**Penny
Stock Regulations**
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define penny stock to be an equity security
that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition
of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities
to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual
incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).
For
transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities
and have received the purchasers prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt
transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated
by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable
to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole
market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealers presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly
statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market
in penny stocks. Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock
and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market.
In
addition to the penny stock rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must
have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced
securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customers
financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that
there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements
make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit the investors
ability to buy and sell our stock.
**Dividend
Policy**
Any
future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of our
board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no contractual obligations or restrictions to declare
or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors
currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the future.

there is no equity compensation plan in place.

**Company
Overview**
Ezagoo
Limited (the Company or EZAGOO), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 9, 2018. The Companys
revenues were mainly generated from providing advertising services on the bus, and Xindian application that developed the Company (advertisement
income). Were planned to expand our brand to attract more potential users and customers as we met the bottleneck when we
transformed the traditional bus advertising to our Xindian platform since January 1, 2022 (as the Changsha government decided to merger
and control all the local bus themselves that effected on December 28, 2021). However, due to the high-level market competitive (Tiktok,
RED etc.), the effect of the Covid-19, and the unsatisfactory operating dates, the Company decided to shut down the operation of Xindian
Application effective from April 2023.
For
the year ended December 31, 2023, the Companys revenue mainly from providing e-commerce trading of goods and products on ZCZX
WeChat Application that is subscribed from Weimob (, HK02013) (trading income), and providing

of $1,104,350 for the year ended December 31, 2023, reflecting a decrease of $ 431,017 . Such decrease was mainly reflected in lesser

*Cash
Flow from Financing Activities*
**
Net
cash generated from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $ 535,023 as compared to net cash generated from financing
activities of $938,281 for the year ended December 31, 2023, reflecting a decrease of $ 403,258. Such decrease was mainly reflected in
lesser advances from the related parties for operating use during the year 2024.
The
revenues, if any, generated from our current business operations alone may not be sufficient to fund our operations or planned growth.
We will likely require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to further expand our business. Sources of additional
capital through various financing transactions or arrangements with third parties may include equity or debt financing, bank loans or
revolving credit facilities. We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all,
and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. Our inability to raise additional funds when required may have a negative
impact on our operations, business development and financial results.
**Critical
accounting estimates**

*Use
of estimates*
**
In
preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

*Foreign
currencies translation and re-measurement*
Transactions
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated
into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded
in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.
The
reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (US$) and the accompanying financial statements have been expressed
in US$. In addition, the Companys subsidiary in Peoples Republic of China maintains its books and record in its local currency,
Chinese Yuan (RMB), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the
entity operates.
In
general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into
US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, Translation of Financial Statement, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet
date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation
of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within
the statements of stockholders deficit.
Translation
of amounts from RMB into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

*Cash
and cash equivalents*
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
*Lease*
The
Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. The Company leases office space. The Company concludes on whether
an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination as to whether an arrangement contains a lease is based on an assessment as
to whether a contract conveys the right to the Company to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for period of time
in exchange for consideration. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes
these lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The
Company has assessed its contracts and concluded that its leases consist of only operating leases. Operating leases are included in operating
lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in the Companys
consolidated balance sheets.
ROU
assets represent the Companys right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Companys
obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date
based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Companys leases do not provide an implicit rate,
the Company determines an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present
value of lease payments. The Companys incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its
credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense
for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

**
*Revenue
recognition*
The
Company assesses and follows the guidance of ASC 606, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:
| 
| 
1. | 
Identify
the contract(s) with a customer; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
a. | 
The
parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally, or in accordance with other customary business practices)
and are committed to perform their respective obligations. | |
| 
| 
| 
b. | 
The
entity can identify each partys rights regarding the services to be transferred. | |
| 
| 
| 
c. | 
The
entity can identify the payment terms for the services to be transferred. | |
| 
| 
| 
d. | 
The
contract has commercial substance (that is, the risk, timing, or amount of the entitys future cash flows is expected to change
as a result of the contract). | |
| 
| 
| 
e. | 
It
is probable that the entity will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the
services that will be transferred to the customer. | |
| 
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
2. | 
Identify
the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
a. | 
According
to the contract, the Company and Customer has to maintain the performance obligation, respectively. | |
| 
| 
| 
b. | 
The
customer shall pay for the services and goods after signing of the contract and provide appropriate advertisement materials, and
the delivery address & contact information of the e-commerce order to the Company, the Company shall ensure the provided service
and delivered goods of the Customer according to the contract terms. | |
| 
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
3. | 
Determine
the transaction price; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
a. | 
For
the e-commerce contract, the transaction price is explicitly stated in fixed amount in the contract. There is no variable consideration,
such as discounts, rebates, consideration payable to customer or noncash consideration. There was no price concession, and the Company
did not expect any price concession for the service performed during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. | |
| 
| 
| 
b. | 
The
contract does not contain any elements that would cause consideration under the arrangement to be variable (Examples include discounts,
rebates, refunds, credits, incentives, tiered pricing, price guarantees, right of return, etc.). | |
| 
| 
| 
c. | 
There
are no factors that exist whereby it is not probable that a significant reversal or revenues will not occur in the contract. | |
| 
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
4. | 
Allocate
the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
a. | 
There
were no multiple performance obligations to which the transaction price must be allocated, and each contract only has one performance
obligation. The standalone selling price is explicated stated in the contract. | |
| 
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
5. | 
Recognize
revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
a. | 
Per
ASC 606, an entity shall recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised
good or service (that is, an asset) to a customer. An asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of that asset. | |
| 
| 
| 
b. | 
Revenue
is recognized when the advertising service is performed. According to the sample advertising and e-commerce contract, upon obtaining
the signed contract and order from the Customer, the service and goods period would be started. Therefore, the revenue is
recognized when the service and goods are completely provided and delivered at that point in time. | |
Under
Topic 606, revenues are recognized when the promised services and goods have been confirmed and transferred to the consumers in amounts
that reflect the consideration the customer expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. The Company presents value added
taxes (VAT) as reductions of revenues. The Company recognizes revenues net of value added taxes (VAT) and
relevant charges.
During
the year 2023, the Companys revenues were mainly generated from providing e-commerce trading of goods and products on ZCZX WeChat
Application that is subscribed from Weimob (, HK02013) (trading income), and providing
e-commerce value-added service in LSM WeChat Application which is also subscribed from Weimob (, HK02013)
(commission income, that the Company only generated income till March 2023 now, as the Customer is updating theyre
products line since April 2023 and they have been launch their new products in January 2024).
*Cost
of revenues*
Cost
of revenue includes costs of goods sold and sales commissions expenses of e-commerce trading in ZCZX, the operating salaries for the
staffs who running the ZCZX and LSM.
| 26 | |
*Income
taxes*
The
Company followed the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. Under this
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company
recorded a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not
that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized
in tax expense in the period that includes the enactment date of the change in tax rate.
The
Company accounted for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Interest and penalties related to unrecognizable tax
benefit recognized in accordance with ASC 740 are classified in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss as income tax expense.
*Earnings
per share*
The
Company computes earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per share. Basic EPS
is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible
securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later.
Any potential common shares in 2024 and 2023 that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease
loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
*Related
party transaction*
A
related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Companys securities and their immediate families,
(ii) the Companys management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction
is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
Transactions
involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arms-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive,
free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related
party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arms-length transactions unless such representations
can be substantiated.
*Recent
accounting pronouncements*
The
Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of
any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
**
| 27 | |
*Going
Concern*
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As
of December 31, 2024, the Company suffered an accumulated deficit of $5,324,244, net current liabilities of $3,566,393, negative
operating cashflows of $620,934 and operated a net loss of $585,330. continuation of the Company as a going concern through December
31, 2024 is dependent upon improving the profitability and the continuing financial support from its stockholders. Management
believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Companys obligations as
they become due.
These
and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements
do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.
*Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements*
As
of December 31, 2024, we have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Controls and Procedures**
Disclosures
Control and Procedures
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over
financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the
supervision of, the Companys principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Companys board of
directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
and includes those policies and procedures that:
| 
| 
| 
Pertain
to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the Company; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Companys
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. | |
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed,
have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect
to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material
misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent
limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to
reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
| 28 | |
As
of December 31, 2024, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for
effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on
such evaluation, the Companys management concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, internal controls and procedures
over financial reporting were not effective. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls
over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
Identified
Material Weaknesses
A
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that
results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
Management
identified the following material weaknesses during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024.
| 
1. | 
We
do not have an Audit Committee While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the managements
view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over the Companys
financial statement. Currently the Chief Executive Officer and Director act in the capacity of the Audit Committee and does not include
a member that is considered to be independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over managements activities. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
2. | 
We
do not have Written Policies & Procedures Due to lack of written policies and procedures for accounting and financial
reporting, the Company did not establish a formal process to close our books monthly and account for all transactions and thus failed
to properly record the Private Placement or disclose such transactions in its SEC filings in a timely manner. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
3. | 
We
did not implement appropriate information technology controls As at December 31, 2024, the Company retains copies of
all financial data and material agreements; however, there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Companys
data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors. | |
Accordingly,
the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Companys internal controls.
As
a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued
by COSO.
Managements
Remediation Initiatives
In
an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated,
or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
| 
1. | 
We
plan to create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical
accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. The accounting personnel is responsible for reviewing
the financing activities, facilitate the approval of the financing, record the information regarding the financing, and submit SEC
filing related documents to our legal counsel in order to comply with the filing requirements of SEC. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
2. | 
We
plan to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our
books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity and debt transactions. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
3. | 
We
intend to add staff members to our management team for making sure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed
and submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required and the staff members will
have segregated responsibilities with regard to these responsibilities. | |
We
anticipate that these initiatives will be at least partially, if not fully, implemented by the end of fiscal year 2024.
Changes
in internal controls over financial reporting
There
was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report, which has materially
affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting, except that we have hired outside
consultant to remediate our material weakness in lack of accounting and finance personnel with technical knowledge in SEC rules and regulations.

Due
to Mr. Tans over 20 years of experience in top management of various businesses, in May of 2018, the Board of Directors elected
to appoint him to the positions of CEO, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Chairman of Board of Directors of Ezagoo Limited.
**Yibo
Li - Chief Financial Officer**
Ms.
Yibo Li obtained a bachelors degree in accounting from Hunan Institute of Technology. Ms. Li has more than 10 years experience
in accounting operation. Ms. Li was the financial manager of three different companies since 2011 to 2024. During her work experience,
Ms. Li has accumulated enough experience in financial reporting, internal control, financial forecast and the capital management.
Due
to Ms. Lis status as a qualified expert in finances, along with her 10 years of professional working experience, the Board of
Directors has determined it best to appoint her to the position of Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
**Family
Relationships**
There
are no family relationships, or other arrangements or understandings between or among any of the directors or executive officer.
**Board
Committees**
Our
Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our
Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our Directors believe that it is not necessary to have such
committees, at this time, because the Directors can adequately perform the functions of such committees.
**Audit
Committee Financial Expert**
Our
Board of Directors has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an audit committee financial expert
as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a Board member that qualifies as independent as the term
is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined by Rule 4200(a)(14)
of the FINRA Rules.
| 30 | |
Audit
committee financial expert means a person who has the following attributes:
| 
1. | 
An
understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements; | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
2. | 
Experience
applying such generally accepted accounting principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals, and reserves that
are generally comparable to the estimates, accruals and reserves, if any, used in the registrants financial statements; | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
3. | 
Experience
preparing or auditing financial statements that present accounting issues that are generally comparable to those raised by the registrants
financial statements; | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
4. | 
Experience
with internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
5. | 
An
understanding of audit committee functions. | |
Currently,
our Company does not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert (as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K) serving
on its Board of Directors because given the early stage of our business development, it is costly to retain an independent Director who
qualify as an audit committee financial expert. However, we expect, in the foreseeable future, to form such a committee composed of our
non-employee directors. We may in the future attempt to add a qualified board member to serve as an audit committee financial expert
in the future, subject to our ability to locate and compensate such a person. The audit committees duties will be to recommend
to our Companys Board of Directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit our Companys
financial statements and to review our Companys accounting and auditing principles.
**Corporate
Governance**
The
Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavours to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable
disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and in
other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Companys employees, officers
and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.
In
lieu of an Audit Committee, the Companys Board of Directors, is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning
the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Companys financial
statements and other services provided by the Companys independent public accountants. The Board of Directors, the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Companys internal accounting controls, practices and policies.
**Code
of Ethics**
We
have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and
determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal,
business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or Directors expand
in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.
**Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings**
To
our knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, officers or affiliates of the Company is a party adverse
to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company.
**Shareholder
Proposals**
Our
Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors.
The Board of Directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little
assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum
criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such
nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations
for election or appointment.
A
shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President,
at the address appearing on the first page of this Information Statement.
**SECTION
16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE**
Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock,
to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide
us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and written representations by
our officers and directors regarding their compliance with applicable reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act,
we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements for our executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders were met during the

such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor
any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made
a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere
with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is
required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed
information provided by the directors and us with regard to each directors business and personal activities and relationships

**Holding
Foreign Companies Accountable Act (HFCAA)**
****
Our
common stock may be prohibited from trading on a national exchange or over-the-counter markets under the HFCAA if the PCAOB
determines it is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditors for three consecutive years beginning in 2021. Furthermore,
on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (AHFCAA), which, if
signed into law, would amend the HFCAA and require the SEC to prohibit an issuers securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges
if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three consecutive years.
Pursuant
to the HFCAA, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate
completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (1) mainland China and (2) Hong Kong. In addition, the PCAOBs
report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to these determinations.
Our
auditor, Enrome LLP, is headquartered in Singapore, and can be inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. Enrome LLP is a firm registered
with the PCAOB and is required by the laws of the U.S. to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess its compliance with the
laws of the U.S. and professional standards. Enrome LLP is subjected to PCAOB inspections, and is not among the PCAOB-registered public
accounting firms headquartered in the PRC or Hong Kong that are subject to PCAOBs determination on December 16, 2021 of having
been unable to inspect or investigate completely.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the future, if it is determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate our auditor completely, or if there
is any regulatory change or step taken by PRC regulators that does not permit Enrome LLP to provide audit documentations located in China
or Hong Kong to the PCAOB for inspection or investigation, or the PCAOB expands the scope of the Determination so that we are subject
to the HFCAA, as the same may be amended, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Any audit reports not issued by auditors
that are completely inspected or investigated by the PCAOB, or a lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China that prevents
the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditors audits and their quality control procedures, could result in a lack of assurance
that our financial statements and disclosures are adequate and accurate. which could result in limitation or restriction to our access
to the U.S. capital markets and trading of our securities, including trading on the national exchange and trading on over-the-
counter markets, may be prohibited under the HFCAA. See Risk Factors *Our shares may be delisted under the Holding
Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditors for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, or for
two consecutive years if the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act becomes law; and the delisting of our shares, or
the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment* and Risk Factors
* Newly enacted Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, recent regulatory actions taken by the SEC and the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board, and proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq calling for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied
to China-based public companies could add uncertainties to our capital raising activities and compliance costs* for more information.

**REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**
To:
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Ezagoo
Limited
**Opinion
on the Financial Statements**
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ezagoo Limited and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of
December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders deficit, and cash flows
for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
**Going
Concern Matter**
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $5,324,244, net current liabilities of $3,566,393, negative operating cashflows of $620,934 and operated a net loss of $585,330
that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are
also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
**Basis
for Opinion**
These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the Companys consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect
to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing
procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures
in the consolidated financial statements.
Our
audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

have served as the Companys auditor since 2024.

GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES**
As
of December 31, 2024, the Company suffered an accumulated deficit of $5,324,244, total current liabilities $3,790,276 and negative operating cashflow of $ 620,934.00
and operated a net loss of $585,330.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern through December 31, 2024 is dependent upon improving the profitability and the fund support is provided by the companys CEO, Tan Xiaohao, who is the
largest shareholder of the company. The Amount due to director is payable to Tan Xiaohao. The Amount due to related party J is also the
largest payable related party, which is also a holding company of Tan Xiaohao. Because we believe that Tan Xiaohao has the ability to
provide financial support. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional
cash to meet the Companys obligations as they become due.
These
and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements
do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
The
accompanying audited consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described
in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.
Basis of consolidated presentation
These
consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes, and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (US GAAP). The Companys
fiscal year end is December 31. The Companys financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars.
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EZAGOO LIMITED and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances
and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of estimates
In
preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Foreign currencies translation and re-measurement
Transactions
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated
into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded
in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.
The
reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (US$) and the accompanying financial statements have been expressed
in US$. In addition, the Companys subsidiary in Peoples Republic of China maintains its books and record in its local currency,
Chinese Yuan (RMB), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the
entity operates.
In
general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into
US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, Translation of Financial Statement, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet
date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation
of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within
the statements of stockholders deficit.
Translation
of amounts from RMB into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

Property and equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using
the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:
SCHEDULE

Office

3-5

The
cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expenses as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Lease
The
Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. The Company leases office space. The Company concludes on whether
an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination as to whether an arrangement contains a lease is based on an assessment as
to whether a contract conveys the right to the Company to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for period of time
in exchange for consideration. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes
these lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The
Company has assessed its contracts and concluded that its leases consist of only operating leases. Operating leases are included in operating
lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in the Companys
consolidated balance sheets.
ROU
assets represent the Companys right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Companys
obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date
based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Companys leases do not provide an implicit rate,
the Company determines an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present
value of lease payments. The Companys incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its
credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense
for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
Commitments and contingencies

for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable
that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

Operating
lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease
payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent
our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily
determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Companys
incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease
ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.
This
standard did not have a significant impact on our liquidity or on our compliance with our financial covenants associated with our loans.
