OnAugust 6, 2020 , we consummated a share exchange transaction with the shareholders ofHanJiao International Holding Limited , its subsidiaries and variable interest entity,Beijing Yingjun Technology Co., Ltd. , or "Beijing VIE". As a result of the share exchange transaction, we entered into the business of providing health and wellness related products through our e-commerce platform to the middle-aged and elderly populations inthe People's Republic of China ("China" or the "PRC") which business is conducted through Beijing VIE. OnOctober 20, 2020 , we changed our name toHanjiao Group, Inc. The shares of our common stock are currently quoted under the symbol "HJGP."
Beijing VIE, a variable interest entity that we control through contractual arrangements, was formed inBeijing, China , onMarch 27, 2007 . Initially, Beijing VIE focused on the provision of services in paper media, publication of magazines and books, and investment in media businesses. Due to the downturn of the paper media industry and the rise of the elderly healthcare services industry, in 2013, Beijing VIE shifted its business focus to the provision of healthcare related products through its e-commerce platform to the middle-aged and elderly segments in the PRC. In 2016, Beijing VIE expanded its e-commerce operations and introduced its "Fozgo" branded products via its online to offline (O2O) marketplace. The O2O platform integrates its e-commerce platform with physical outlets to connect consumers and merchants in a dynamic marketplace. Its platform not only offers users the convenience of making online purchases, but also provides users the possibility to purchase and receive products at offline service centers. Currently, Beijing VIE's core product categories include nutritional supplements, cosmetics, smart home products (such as smart watches) and home appliances (such as water filters and air purifiers). Beijing VIE has developed several branch offices with outlets across the PRC with approximately 163,000 users.

Impact of COVID-19 on our business
The outbreak of COVID-19 that started in lateJanuary 2020 in the PRC had negatively affected our business. InMarch 2020 , theWorld Health Organization declared COVID-19 as a pandemic and has resulted in quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores and business facilities inChina and theU.S. in the subsequent months. Given the rapidly expanding nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, and because substantially all of the Company's business operations and its workforce are concentrated inChina , the Company's business, results of operations, and financial condition have been adversely affected. For the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a net losses of approximately$1.5 and$1.9 million , respectively. AtMarch 31, 2022 , the Company has a significant working capital deficiency of approximately$34.9 million , and a shareholders' deficit of approximately$14.0 million . These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. To mitigate the overall financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business, management introduced cost containment and staff reduction measures, revised product selection and incentive programs and worked with its service centers continuously to enhance their marketing and promotion activities. Management believes that COVID-19 will continue to have a material impact on its financial results for the first half of 2022 and could cause the potential impairment of certain assets. Accordingly, we expect to continue implementing cost containment measures, work closely with our service centers with offline, online and virtual marketing and promotion activities, as well as actively recruit key sales members and obtain product and service collaborations. While the Company cannot accurately predict the full impact of COVID-19 on its business in 2022, management believes that its business will gradually stabilize in 2023 as market conditions inChina continue to improve. Until the Company's operating results improve, the Company hopes to rely on financing from its shareholders to support the Company's operations. Results of Operations Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that we will be able to continue to operate in the future in the normal course of business. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , includes a note about our ability to continue as a going concern due to losses from operations in 2021 and through the quarter endedMarch 31, 2022 as a result of COVID-19. Business closures in the PRC and limitations on business operations arising from COVID-19 has significantly disrupted our ability to generate revenues and cash flow during the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 . While the Company cannot accurately predict the full impact of COVID-19 on its business in 2022, management believes that its business will gradually stabilize in 2023 as market conditions inChina improve. In assessing the Company's liquidity, management monitors and analyzes its cash on hand and its operating expenses, and existing regulatory obligations and commercial commitments. Based on its latest sales and cash flows projection, management believes that the Company should be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its working capital requirements for the next twelve months, and that its capital resources are currently sufficient to maintain its business operations for the next twelve months. Until the Company's operating results improve, the Company hopes to rely on financing from its shareholders to support the Company's operations. 40

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as shareholders' equity, or that are not reflected in our financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and
development services with us. 43 Critical Accounting Policies We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted bythe United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), which require 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 three 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 our accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates. Accordingly, the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are summarized in "Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See "Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements. The Company believes that other recent accounting pronouncement will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
