Exhibit 99.1
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements include statements relating to:
| ● | the potential impact on our business of the economic, political and social conditions of the People’s Republic of China; | |
| ● | any changes in the laws of the People’s Republic of China or local province that may affect our operations; | |
| ● | the liquidity of our securities; | |
| ● | inflation and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; | |
| ● | the ability to navigate geographic market risks of our eco-friendly constructions materials; | |
| ● | the ability to maintain a reserve for warranty or defective products and installation claims; | |
| ● | our on-going ability to obtain all mandatory and voluntary government and other industry certifications, approvals, and/or licenses to conduct our business; | |
| ● | our ability to maintain effective supply chain of raw materials and our products; | |
| ● | slowdown or contraction in industries in China in which we operate; | |
| ● | our ability to maintain or increase our market share in the competitive markets in which we do business; | |
| ● | our ability to diversify our product and service offerings and capture new market opportunities; | |
| ● | our estimates of expenses, capital requirements and needs for additional financing and our ability to fund our current and future operations; | |
| ● | the costs we may incur in the future from complying with current and future laws and regulations and the impact of any changes in the regulations on our operations; and | |
| ● | the loss of key members of our senior management. |
These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in the “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors,” “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” in our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on May 15, 2024 (the “2023 Annual Report”). Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this report or to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations.
The forward-looking statements made in this report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this report and the documents that we refer to in this report and exhibits to this report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Among our total revenue, revenue from third party customers increased by approximately $0.6 million, or 58%, from approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to approximately $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, while revenue from related party customers increased by $7,767, or 4%, from $210,864 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $218,631 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Increase in total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was mainly attributable to the increase in service revenue.

Machinery and Equipment
Revenue from machinery and equipment sales was approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, consistent with approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Construction Materials
Sales of the Company’s environmental-friendly construction materials remained stable and was approximately $146,000 and $103,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Technological Consulting and Other Services
Revenue from technological consulting and other services increased by approximately $0.5 million, or 650%, to approximately $0.6 million for six months ended June 30, 2024 from approximately $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to the completion of a one-time software development contract worth $0.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Cost of Revenues
Our total cost of revenues increased by approximately $0.1 million, or 11%, to approximately $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Cost of revenues from third party customers increased by $0.3 million, or 45%, from approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, while cost of revenues from related party customers decreased by approximately $0.2 million, or 61%, from approximately $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to approximately $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in our total cost of revenues was not as significant as the increase in revenue, because cost of revenues for our technological consulting and other services is lower than that of sales of products, and our service revenues accounted for a greater percentage of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. For the same reason, our cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased to 69% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from 92% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Gross loss margin for this segment was 108% and 64% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Technological Consulting and Other Services
Gross profit for technological consulting and other services increased by approximately $0.5 million to approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $46,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit margin for this segment was approximately 92% and 60% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Increase in gross profit margin was due to higher gross profit margin of the software development services.
Selling Expenses
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our selling expenses were approximately $0.1 million, representing a 54% decrease from approximately $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. As a percentage of sales, our selling expenses were 7% and 24% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to reduced spending on marketing activities and lower transportation and handling expenses incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $4.2 million, or 75%, to approximately $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from approximately $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was due to a decrease of approximately $3.6 million in share-based compensation, a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in payroll expenses as a result of the reduction in headcount and a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in professional service incurred.
Provision for Credit Losses
Provision for credit losses amounted to approximately $0.1 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses decreased to approximately $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to less research and development activities in the current period.
Interest Expense
The Company’s interest expenses were approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income was approximately $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to other expense of approximately $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The other income in the six months ended June 30, 2024 was due to a one-time sale of software copyright for approximately $0.6 million. The other expense in the six months ended June 30, 2023 was a one-time charge of approximately $4.7 million from a terminated project.
Change in Fair Value in Convertible Debt
Due to change in fair value of convertible debentures and note, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of nil and $57,985 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Share of Losses in Equity Method Investments
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, share of losses in equity method investments for Shexian Ruibo amounted to $57,960 and $83,307, respectively.
6
Loss before Income Taxes
The Company’s loss before income taxes was approximately $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $10.9 million as compared to loss before income taxes of approximately $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to increase in revenue and decrease in operating expenses and other expense.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are subject to PRC income tax, which is computed according to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC. Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law, the corporate income tax rate applicable to all companies, including both domestic and foreign-invested companies, is 25%. However, two subsidiaries of the Company, Beijing REIT Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“Beijing REIT”) and Hainan Yile IoT Technology Co., Ltd., are recognized as High and New Technology Enterprises by the PRC government and thus subject to a favorable income tax rate of 15%. As the Company had losses before income tax, its income tax expenses (benefit) amounted to ($16,380) and $52 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The following table reconciles the income tax expense by statutory rate to the Company’s actual income tax expense from our continuing operations:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
ReTo is a holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. REIT Holdings (China) Limited, our wholly owned subsidiary established in Hong Kong, directly owns Beijing REIT, REIT Ecological Technology Co., Ltd., and REIT Technology Development Co., Ltd., which in turn own our assets through their respective subsidiaries in China, India and the United States. Sunoro Holdings Limited, our wholly owned subsidiary established in Hong Kong, directly owns Sunoro Hengda (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd., which in turn owns our assets through its respective subsidiaries in China. We may depend on dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries, including our PRC subsidiaries, to satisfy our liquidity requirements.
Under applicable PRC regulations, foreign-invested enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, a foreign-invested enterprise in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until the accumulative amount of such reserves reaches 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The board of directors of a foreign-invested enterprise has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation.
7
Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China and are denominated in RMB, which is subject to the exchange control regulation in China, and, as a result, we may have difficulty distributing any dividends outside of China due to PRC exchange control regulations that restrict the ability to convert RMB into U.S. Dollars.
Under PRC law, RMB is currently convertible into U.S. Dollars under a company’s “current account,” which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, without prior approval of China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), not from a company’s “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investments and loans, without the prior approval of SAFE.
We have historically funded our working capital needs from cash flow from operations, advance payments from customers, bank borrowings, equity and debt offering, capital contributions from shareholders and related-party loans. Presently, our principal sources of liquidity are generated from our operations, proceeds from our shareholders’ contributions, and loans and notes from commercial banks. Our working capital requirements are influenced by the level of our operations, the numerical volume and dollar value of our sales contracts, the progress of execution on our customer contracts, and the timing of accounts receivable collections.
The Company reported a net loss of approximately $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital of approximately of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $1.6 million. In addition, the Company had outstanding accounts receivable of approximately $0.7 million (including accounts receivable from third-party customers of $0.6 million and accounts receivable from related party customers of approximately $0.1 million), which has not been collected as of the date of this report.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding bank loans of approximately $5.3 million and outstanding loans of approximately $3.1 million from third parties. If the Company cannot renew existing loans or borrow additional loans from banks, the Company’s working capital may be further negatively impacted.
Based on the reasons above, there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Management believes that the Company would be able to renew all of its existing bank loans upon their maturity based on past experience and the Company’s credit history. Currently, the Company is working to improve its liquidity and capital source mainly through cash flow from its operations, renewal of bank borrowings and borrowing from related parties. In order to fully implement its business plan and sustain operations, the Company may also seek equity financing from outside investors. At the present time, however, the Company does not have commitments of funds from any potential investors. No assurance can be given that additional financing, if required, would be available on favorable terms or at all.

Research and Development, Patent and Licenses, etc.
Please refer to “Item 4. Information on the Company—B. Business Overview—Research and Development” and “—Intellectual Property” in our 2023 Annual Report.
Trend Information
Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this report, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our net revenues, income from continuing operations, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause reported financial information not necessarily to be indicative of future operating results or financial condition.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted by the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and any related disclosures. Although there were no material changes made to the accounting estimates and assumptions in the past years, we continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from our expectations as a result of changes in our estimates.
We believe that the following accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
Accounts Receivable, Net
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2023. ASC 326 introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate the allowance for credit losses, which replaces the previous incurred loss impairment model. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounts receivable was recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for credit losses. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses based on an analysis of the aging of accounts receivable, assessment of collectability, including any known or anticipated economic conditions, customer-specific circumstances, recent payment history and other relevant factors. Allowance for credit losses amounted to $2,105,670 and $2,146,679 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
10
To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.
The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from the following sources:
| ● | Revenue from machinery and equipment sales |
The Company recognizes revenue when the machinery and equipment is delivered and control is transferred. The Company generally provide a warranty for a period of 12 months after the customers receive the equipment. The Company determines that such product warranty is not a separated performance obligation because the nature of warranty is to provide assurance that a product will function as expected and in accordance with customer’s specification and the Company has not sold the warranty separately. From its past experience, the Company has not experienced any material warranty costs and, therefore, the Company does not believe an accrual for warranty cost is necessary for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
| ● | Revenue from construction materials sales |
The Company recognizes revenue, net of sales taxes and estimated sales returns, when the construction materials are shipped to, delivered to or picked up by customers and control is transferred.
| ● | Revenue from municipal construction projects |
The Company provides municipal construction services, including sponge city projects and ecological restoration projects. The Company recognizes revenue associated with these contracts over time as service is performed and the transfer of control occurs, based on a percentage-of-completion method using cost-to-cost input methods as a measure of progress. When the percentage-of-completion method is used, the Company estimates the costs to complete individual contracts and records as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs (the cost-to-cost approach).
Under the cost-to-cost approach, the use of estimated costs to complete each contract is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue, requires judgment and can change throughout the duration of a contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. The costs of earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.
| ● | Revenue from technological consulting and other services |
The Company recognizes revenue when technological consulting and other services are rendered and accepted by the customers.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit quality. Contact assets are recognized for in related accounts receivable. Contract liabilities are recognized for contracts where payment has been received in advance of delivery. The contract liability balance can vary significantly depending on the timing of when an order is placed and when shipment or delivery occurs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, other than accounts receivable and advances from customers, the Company had no other material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. Costs of fulfilling customers’ purchase orders, such as shipping, handling and delivery, which occur prior to the transfer of control, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense when incurred.
11
Share-based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). In accordance with ASC 718, the Company determines whether an award should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or an equity award. All the Company’s share-based awards were classified as equity awards and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values.
The Company has elected to recognize share-based compensation using the straight-line method for all share-based awards granted with graded vesting based on service conditions. The Company uses the accelerated method for all awards granted with graded vesting. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur in accordance with ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Employee Share-based Payment Accounting. The Company, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm, determined the fair value of the stock options granted to employees. The binomial option pricing model and Black-Scholes Model were applied in determining the estimated fair value of the options granted to employees and non-employees.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
To the extent applicable, the Company records interest and penalties as a general and administrative expense. The Company’s subsidiaries in China and Hong Kong are subject to the income tax laws of the PRC and Hong Kong. No significant taxable income was generated outside the PRC for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the tax years ended December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2023 for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Principles of consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company,
directly or indirectly, controls more than
Non-controlling interest represents the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to interests that are not owned by the Company. The non-controlling interest is presented in the consolidated balance sheets, separately from equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company. Non-controlling interest’s operating result is presented on the face of the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as an allocation of the total income for the year between non-controlling shareholders and the shareholders of the Company.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, advances to suppliers, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, revenue recognition under the input method, and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand and cash deposited in major third-party payment processing platforms such as Alipay. In addition, highly liquid investments which have original maturities of three months or less when purchased are classified as cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable, Net
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,
“Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires
the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net

invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for credit losses. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses based on an analysis
of the aging of accounts receivable, assessment of collectability, including any known or anticipated economic conditions, customer-specific
circumstances, recent payment history and other relevant factors. Allowance for credit losses amounted to $

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs include the cost of raw materials, freight, direct labor and related production overhead. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method. Any excess of the cost over the net realizable value of each item of inventories is recognized as a provision for diminution in the value of inventories.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling
price in the normal course of business less any costs to complete and sell products. The Company evaluates inventories on a quarterly
basis for its net realizable value adjustments, and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of
the forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value based on various factors including aging and future demand of each type of
inventories. The Company recorded an inventory reserve of $
Advances to Suppliers, Net
Advances to suppliers consist of balances paid
to suppliers for services and materials that have not been provided or received. Advances to suppliers for service and material are short-term
in nature. Advances to Suppliers are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company
considers the assets to be impaired if the collectability of the advance becomes doubtful. The Company uses the aging method to estimate
the allowance for uncollectible balances. In addition, at each reporting date, the Company generally determines the adequacy of allowance
for doubtful accounts by evaluating all available information, and then records specific allowances for those advances based on the specific
facts and circumstances. Allowance for uncollectible balances from the operations amounted to $
Long-term Investment in Equity Investee
The Company’s long-term investments include equity method investments and equity investments without readily determinable fair values.
Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost and the difference between the cost of the equity investee and the amount of the underlying equity in the net assets of the equity investee is accounted for as if the investee were a consolidated subsidiary. The share of earnings or losses of the investee are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Equity method adjustments include the Company’s proportionate share of investee income or loss, adjustments to recognize certain differences between the Company’s carrying value and its equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment, impairments, and other adjustments required by the equity method. The Company assesses its equity investment for other-than-temporary impairment by considering factors as well as all relevant and available information including, but not limited to, current economic and market conditions, the operating performance of the investees including current earnings trends, the general market conditions in the investee’s industry or geographic area, factors related to the investee’s ability to remain in business, such as the investee’s liquidity, debt ratios, and cash burn rate and other company-specific information.
Investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment adjusted by observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. These investments are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there are events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect. An impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the investment. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2019, these investments were accounted for using the cost method of accounting, measured at cost less other-than-temporary impairment.

Long-term Investment in Equity Investee (continued)
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the
Company’s long-term investment in equity investee balance represents its $
The Company continually reviews its investments in equity investees to determine whether a decline in fair value below the carrying value is other-than-temporary. The primary factors the Company considers in its determination include the financial condition, operating performance and the prospects of the equity investee; other company specific information such as recent financing rounds; the geographic region, market and industry in which the equity investee operates; and the length of time that the fair value of the investment is below its carrying value. If the decline in fair value is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the carrying value of the equity investee is written down to fair value. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not recognize any impairment on its equity investment.
Leases
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method permitted under ASU No. 2018-11. This transition approach provides a method for recording existing leases only at the date of adoption and does not require previously reported balances to be adjusted. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. The standard did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated net earnings and cash flows.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
| ● | Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
| ● | Level 2 - Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |
| ● | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. |
The Company considers the recorded value of its financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, advance to suppliers, accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities, advances from customers, deferred revenue, taxes payable and due to related parties to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.
The Company believes that the carrying amount of the short-term and long-term borrowings approximates fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 based on the terms of the borrowings and current market rates as the rates of the borrowings are reflective of the current market rates.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The Company elected the fair value option to account for its convertible loans. The Company engaged an independent valuation firm to perform the valuation. The convertible loans are classified as level 3 instruments as the valuation was determined based on unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company’s own assumptions in measuring fair value. Significant estimates used in developing the fair value of the convertible loans include time to maturity, risk-free interest rate, straight debt discount rate, probability to convert and expected timing of conversion. Refer to Note 9 for additional information.
As the inputs used in developing the fair value for level 3 instruments are unobservable, and require significant management estimate, a change in these inputs could result in a significant change in the fair value measurement.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.
The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from the following sources:
| ● | Revenue from machinery and equipment sales |
The Company recognizes revenue when the machinery and equipment is delivered and control is transferred. The Company generally provide a warranty for a period of 12 months after the customers receive the equipment. The Company determines that such product warranty is not a separated performance obligation because the nature of warranty is to provide assurance that a product will function as expected and in accordance with customer’s specification and the Company has not sold the warranty separately. From its past experience, the Company has not experienced any material warranty costs and, therefore, the Company does not believe an accrual for warranty cost is necessary for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
| ● | Revenue from construction materials sales |
The Company recognizes revenue, net of sales taxes and estimated sales returns, when the construction materials are shipped to, delivered to or picked up by customers and control is transferred.
| ● | Revenue from municipal construction projects |
The Company provides municipal construction services, including sponge city projects and ecological restoration projects. The Company recognizes revenue associated with these contracts over time as service is performed and the transfer of control occurs, based on a percentage-of-completion method using cost-to-cost input methods as a measure of progress. When the percentage-of-completion method is used, the Company estimates the costs to complete individual contracts and records as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs (the cost-to-cost approach).

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue Recognition (continued)
Under the cost-to-cost approach, the use of estimated costs to complete each contract is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue, requires judgment and can change throughout the duration of a contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. The costs of earned revenue include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.
| ● | Revenue from technological consulting and other services |
The Company recognizes revenue when technological consulting and other services are rendered and accepted by the customers.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Payment terms are established on the Company’s pre-established credit requirements based upon an evaluation of customers’ credit quality. Contact assets are recognized for in related accounts receivable. Contract liabilities are recognized for contracts where payment has been received in advance of delivery. The contract liability balance can vary significantly depending on the timing of when an order is placed and when shipment or delivery occurs.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, other than accounts receivable and advances from customers, the Company had no other material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. Costs of fulfilling customers’ purchase orders, such as shipping, handling and delivery, which occur prior to the transfer of control, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense when incurred.
Disaggregation of Revenues
The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts by products and services, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is disclosed in Note 16.
Government Grants
Government grants represent cash subsidies received
from PRC government or related institutions. Cash subsidies which have no defined rules and regulations to govern the criteria necessary
for companies to enjoy the benefits are recognized as other income, net when received. Specific subsidies that local government has provided
for a specific purpose, such as research and development are recorded as other non-current liabilities when received and recognized as
other income or reduction of related expense when the specific performance is meet. As of December 31, 2020, the Company received related
grants of $

Share-based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). In accordance with ASC 718, the Company determines whether an award should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or an equity award. All the Company’s share-based awards were classified as equity awards and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
To the extent applicable, the Company records interest and penalties as a general and administrative expense. The Company’s subsidiaries in China and Hong Kong are subject to the income tax laws of the PRC and Hong Kong. No significant taxable income was generated outside the PRC for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the tax years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2023 for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries remain open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.
Value Added Tax (“VAT”)
Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of
goods, net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates range up to
Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) 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. Potential common shares 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. As of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company had no dilutive security outstanding that could potentially dilute EPS in the future.

Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s principal country of operations is the PRC. The financial position and results of its operations located in PRC are determined using RMB, the local currency, as the functional currency. ReTo and REIT Holdings use U.S. Dollars as their functional currency, while REIT India uses Indian rupee as the functional currency. The Company’s financial statements are reported using U.S. Dollars. The results of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. The equity denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies
may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation
of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting.

Risks and Uncertainties
The main operation of the Company is located in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.
Concentrations and Credit Risk
A majority of the Company’s transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2021-08”). This ASU requires entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments improve comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. The amendments are effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2023, and are applied prospectively to business combinations that occur after the effective date. The adoption does not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). This ASU requires that public business entities must annually “(1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate).” A public entity should apply the amendments in ASU 2023-09 prospectively to all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. This ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in the update and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. The adoption does not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards” (“ASU 2024-01”), which intends to improve clarity and operability without changing the existing guidance. ASU 2024-01 provides an illustrative example intended to demonstrate how entities that account for profits interest and similar awards would determine whether a profits interest award should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 718. Entities can apply the guidance either retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements or prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after the date of adoption. ASU 2024-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its financial statements.
Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no recently issued accounting standards that will have a material impact on the audited consolidated financial position, statements of operations, and cash flows of the Company.
