The Company assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on aging schedules because the accounts receivable were primarily consisted of receivables arising from advertising revenue. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for expected credit loss after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company provided credit loss of <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_1603681682;">nil</span> and $77 against accounts receivables, respectively. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"><i>Unamortized produced content</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Produced content includes direct production costs, production overhead and acquisition costs and is stated at the lower of unamortized cost or estimated fair value.

When estimates of total revenues and other events or changes in circumstances indicate that a film or television series has a fair value that is less than its unamortized cost, a loss is recognized currently for the amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the film or television series’ fair value.

Generally, the Company signs a contract with a customer which requires the Company to deliver a series of episodes that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, the delivery of the series of episodes is defined as the only performance obligation in the contract.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">For the TV series produced solely by the Company, the Company satisfies its performance obligation over time by measuring the progress toward the delivery of the entire series of episodes which is made available to the licensee for exhibition after the license period has begun.

Under a framework contract, the Company receives separate purchase orders from advertising agencies before the broadcast. Accordingly, each purchase order is identified as a separate performance obligation, containing a bundle of advertisements that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Where collectability is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized monthly over the service period of the purchase order.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">For contracts signed directly with the advertisers, the Company commits to display a series of advertisements which are substantially the same or similar in content and transfer pattern, and the display of the whole series of advertisements is identified as the single performance obligation under the contract.

Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income/loss. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.

The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this Update in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes that interim reporting period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. For example, an entity may decide to early adopt certain amendments and adopt the remaining amendments at the effective date. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update (except for the amendments to Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, related to Issue 4) using one of the following transition methods: (i) Prospectively to all transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments, or (ii) Retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. An entity should adjust the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.

The ASU also addresses the form and content of such financial statements, adds lists to ASC 270 of the interim disclosures required by all other Codification topics, and establishes a principle under which an entity must disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. As the Board stated in the proposed guidance and reiterates in the ASU, the amendments are not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. For entities other than public business entities, for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028. Early adoption is permitted for all entities.

An entity that makes the accounting policy election is required to disclose the date through which subsequent cash collections are evaluated. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted.

Upon adoption, the Company changed the impairment model to utilize a forward-looking current expected credit losses (CECL) model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and receivables resulting from the application of ASC 606, including contract assets.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses and records the allowance for credit losses as an offset to accounts receivable and the estimated credit losses charged to the allowance is classified as “General and administrative expenses” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on aging schedules because the accounts receivable were primarily consisted of receivables arising from advertising revenue. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for expected credit loss after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company provided credit loss of <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_1603681682;">nil</span> and $77 against accounts receivables, respectively. </p> 77000 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"><i>Unamortized produced content</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Produced content includes direct production costs, production overhead and acquisition costs and is stated at the lower of unamortized cost or estimated fair value.

Ultimate revenue estimates for the produced content are periodically reviewed and adjustments, if any, will result in prospective changes to amortization rates. When estimates of total revenues and other events or changes in circumstances indicate that a film or television series has a fair value that is less than its unamortized cost, a loss is recognized currently for the amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the film or television series’ fair value. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, $5,288 and $13,429 were amortized to the cost of sales, respectively.

Generally, the Company signs a contract with a customer which requires the Company to deliver a series of episodes that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, the delivery of the series of episodes is defined as the only performance obligation in the contract.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">For the TV series produced solely by the Company, the Company satisfies its performance obligation over time by measuring the progress toward the delivery of the entire series of episodes which is made available to the licensee for exhibition after the license period has begun. Therefore, the copyright revenue in a contract is recognized over time based on the progress of the number of episodes delivered.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company also coproduces TV series with other producers and licenses the copyright to third-party video broadcast platforms for broadcast. For TV series produced by the Company with co-producers, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by the delivery of the entire series of episodes to the customer, and requires the customer to pay consideration based on the number and the unit price of valid subsequent views of the TV series that occur on a broadcast platform. Therefore, the copyright revenue is recognized when the later of the valid subsequent view occurs or the performance obligation relating to the delivery of a number of episodes has been satisfied.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"><i>Advertising revenue</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company generates revenue from sales of various forms of advertising on its TV series and streaming content by way of 1) advertisement displays, or 2) the integration of promotion activities in TV series and content to be broadcast. Advertising contracts are signed to establish the different contract prices for different advertising scenarios, consistent with the advertising period. The Company enters into advertising contracts directly with the advertisers or the third-party advertising agencies that represent advertisers.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">For the contracts that involve the third-party advertising agencies, the Company is principal as the Company is responsible for fulfilling the promise of providing advertising services and has the discretion in establishing the price for the specified advertisement. Under a framework contract, the Company receives separate purchase orders from advertising agencies before the broadcast. Accordingly, each purchase order is identified as a separate performance obligation, containing a bundle of advertisements that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Where collectability is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized monthly over the service period of the purchase order.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">For contracts signed directly with the advertisers, the Company commits to display a series of advertisements which are substantially the same or similar in content and transfer pattern, and the display of the whole series of advertisements is identified as the single performance obligation under the contract. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time by measuring the progress toward the display of the whole series of advertisements in a contract, and advertising revenue is recognized over time based on the number of advertisements displayed.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Payment terms and conditions vary by contract types, and terms typically include a requirement for payment within a period from 6 to 9 months.

Consumers are not customers of the Company, therefore incentives offered to consumers are not considered consideration payable to customers. As the consumers are required to make future purchases of the merchants’ merchandise to redeem these coupons, the Company does not accrue any expense for coupons when granted and recognizes the amounts of redeemed coupons as marketing expenses when future purchases are made.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><i>Other Revenues</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Other revenue primarily consists of copyrights trading of purchased and produced TV-series and the sales of products on Taobao platform.

The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this Update in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes that interim reporting period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. For example, an entity may decide to early adopt certain amendments and adopt the remaining amendments at the effective date. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update (except for the amendments to Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, related to Issue 4) using one of the following transition methods: (i) Prospectively to all transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments, or (ii) Retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. An entity should adjust the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_737072846;"><span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_2122445431;">no</span></span> unrecognized tax benefits. Due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company estimates there will not be sufficient future income to realize the deferred tax assets arising from net operating losses for the VIEs and the VIEs’ subsidiaries. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets arising from net operating losses as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_1560363311;"><span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_1408247952;">no</span></span> deferred tax.   </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company does not anticipate any significant increase to its liability for unrecognized tax benefit within the next 12 months. The Company will classify interest and penalties related to income tax matters, if any, in income tax expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had deferred income tax benefits of <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_66597161;">nil</span> and $4, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred current income tax expenses of $2,770 and <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_1566583845;">nil</span>, respectively. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><i>Uncertain tax positions</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized and recorded as necessary in the provision for income taxes. The Company is subject to income taxes in the PRC. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB 100. In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. There were no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2026 and the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will change over the next twelve months. </p> 4000 2770000 100000 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">13.
